Water We Tasting

Blackwater, probably an SEO nightmare. This episode is oddly topical considering it was recorded months ago. We talk about Belle Gibson the topic of a recently announced Netflix show as well as disgraced shock jock Alan jones. 

We learn that when it comes to health claims the onus doesn't seem to be on the one making the claim to show evidence. 

We also talk about the Real House Wives of New Jersey.

In this episode we are fighting evil by moonlight, winning love by daylight, never running from a real fight...oh wait no that was Sailor Moon. We are joined by a new dog cohost Freddie who really comes in strong taking initiative from day 1. We talk about Anime, water, food, dogs, the important things.  We taste two Ocean Bomb waters with sailor moon themed cans. 

We discuss the happenings on the ultimate world cruise as they make their way through Australia and Asia.  Do we want to go on a cruise now? Still probably not. We then pivot to the return of "does it taste like the thing?" With blackberry bubbly and actual blackberries. Listen to find out how that goes.

We are back after some cold water exposure talking about Andrew Huberman, pop science, why water is low hanging fruit for wellness grifters, and our appetite for risk when it comes to trying wellness things. We finish up by tasting La Croix Coconut ni Cola our review will shock you.

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.

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.

Its the anniversary of our first episode of the podcast! This unreleased episode is from the archives, this may have been one of the first episodes that we recorded and I think we kind of thought we wouldn't need to prepare or anything.  It may have been 2021.

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.  

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.

We are joined by Charlotte, Alex's Fiancee and water enthusiast so she too could be disappointed by another is it water? Water. Points awarded for the packaging and unusual flavour. Points deducted for overall enjoyability.

We try some waters that are infused with crystals, are botanical flavoured and were bottled under the new moon.  It's a lot! We feel like we made it as podcasters because these were supplied by a listener.  This is the first instalment of the crystal water range.

We try Pomegranate Santa Vittoria and some actual pomegranates. We also try a cherry pomegranate San Pellegrino that you cant buy anywhere even if you wanted to.
