In this episode we talk about doing ice baths and shallow water or hypoxic blackout, one of the risks of deep breathing exercises around water but forgot what it was called.  We talk about water and wellness in general, the logistics of doing this particular wellness thing.      https://www.royallifesaving.com.au/stay-safe-active/risk-factors/hypoxic-blackout

Another episode from the archives that we never got around to releasing.  This may have been our first "is it even water?" We talk about celebrity water endorsements and Alienergy maybe water.

Celebrities and what they think of water.

We start off the way we often do talking about things we saw on Tiktok including a 9 month long world cruise.  Following what was probably a seamless transition we talk about Adam Sandlers 1998 movie The Waterboy and also about Sandler's career in general. I'd like to say this is a career low point but as we mention in the episode he has made movies that are worse. This episode was requested by quite a few people, it is the second most requested topic after Waterboarding so do with that information what you will.

Australian tries weird American food and reacts, this is a style of content that is prevalent on the internet so here is our contribution to the genre.  Sorry misophoniacs there may be eating noises. A tenuous link to the original podcast theme was made here but this will probably not be the last time this happens.   The Recipe I used for this episode: 1 packet Pistachio Jell-O Pudding Mix 1 can of crushed pineapple in juice 1 cup of mini marshmallows 150g of Haddar whipped topping (thawed and whipped) 1/2 cup of toasted pecans Some Maraschino cherries Mix pineapple and juice with pudding mix, mix in marshmallows and half the pecans, fold in topping/ cream. Set overnight.  Top with cherries and remaining pecans.   A few sources were used but this is the one I mentioned in the episode: https://www.foodtimeline.org/

We made a Christmas episode but this isn't it. In this episode Claire and Alex discuss a few different types of thirst traps. The possibility of doing a TikTok dance is floated but ultimately it is outside of their skill set.

Alex explains his defensive wounds. We try a water from New Zealand, talk about Gippsland landmark The Potato Shed, and shoe horn the mushroom lady into the theme. Are we going to be a true crime podcast now? Claire didn't choose the Water We Tasting life the Water We Tasting life chose her.  We talked about Chi squared and then didn't know what it was so here it is: A Chi squared test is used to compare observed results with expected results. It can be used to establish if the data is due to chance or a relationship between the variables. Hopefully that cleared that up.

Claire decides to start the episode with a not so fun fact.  A fancy Tasmanian water is evaluated. Alex speculates about what is involved in developing a water.

We start with a teaser for an upcoming episode.  We try some plain water in cans and discuss what we would do in the unlikely event that we were asked to sell out.  The products we try are two examples of the same thing, however, one is a marketing genius and one seems to be an under marketed emulation.

We discuss the changing availability of minimally flavoured waters in Australia and try Bubly.
