Bottled Water is Bad

have you heard of the eighth continent I. got a. pee hello I'm Mark Austin from Raleigh. North Carolina and let's talk about. [Music]. [Applause]. that good mythical morning this episode. is brought to you by royaltyfreemusic. library.com that's the place where we. get all of the backing tracks that we. use on this show and a lot on our main. Channel as well royalty free music. library.

thanks for joining us link that was rude. of you to get up and evacuate eight. glasses of water a day have you heard. this you know you should drink eight. glass and I'm talking full glasses of. water a day have you heard have you. heard this cuz I'm telling you if you. haven't heard eight full glasses is that. what your doctor talks to the brim my. doctor talks like this how you been. you're looking good have you been. drinking your eight glasses your blood. pressure's fine is it a myth or is it. not a myth what do you think go ahead.

and comment right now up too late it is. a myth who really okay oh this is going. against all convention link I mean we've. got people out there saying a glass is a. day I mean they've been saying that. since like 87 well the the the 28. seconds worth of Googling and reading. that I did about the subject right. before I'm talking about it right now. when I was in the restroom there on my. phone said it it's it's it's a myth I. mean it it obviously varies by how big. you are and how much hydration you need. I need a I need 10 12 maybe you might.

need I'm a tall drink of water is what. they say what you really need to do is. you need whatever you lose in a day you. need to replenish and the general rule. of thumb is if you're thirsty drink. should I be recycling my own pee because. then I would know exact I would drink. I'm talking about water not pee this is. not a survival in initiation ceremony. type listen I've been watching that show. about the people who get ready for the. end of the world and there was a couple. on there you're still watching it yeah. yeah yeah Doomsday Preppers and the girl. and the and the the a c older couple on.

there was drinking their own pee well. that's their problem like you might have. to do this if the world's about to end. well they do say I have heard when. you're hiking have you heard people say. this well if you're hiking and you get. thirsty you're already dehydrated drink. your own pee no you're already. dehydrated so the rule of thumb is drink. when you're thirsty except when you're. hiking and then drink right before you. get thirsty what about during. sports drink during time out.

I always see like you know I was looking. at a lot of sports recently looking at a. lot of sports I always like to watch the. bench and you know when someone goes to. the bench cuz I relate to the people. give me the bench cam I relate to the. people on the bench and it great that's. a great idea for a channel like ESPN 4. should be the bench cam I but I always. notice they're like guys like talking to. each other like what' you do last night. you know when they sit down yeah with. audio when they sit down and they put a. towel and a water over here and I always. hatte when the guy like like he he's.

sweaty he's going to go back in the game. in a few minutes he's mad he refuses the. water do never refuse the water. athletes unless you've had eight glasses. which you should get eight glasses a day. full glasses that's not true you just. said not to oh I just well whatever now. our friend Joe Beretta of baratz and. Beretta Fame and also on SourceFed he's. one of the hosts there if you don't know. Joe what's your problem we we were. hanging out with Joe and you remember. what he told us I don't remember how it. came up he drinks his own pee no no he.

does I'm going to see how many times I. can put that in there he didn't admit to. drinking his own pee but do you remember. how this came out of conversation. because I know that he said when you. roll out of bed the first thing you. should do is drink a big glass of water. a pint he said a pint of water and. that's like a glass like this that's a. lot of water it's like bigger than your. head drink is drink enough water to fill. your head and if you were to drink and. it stayed in your head well it does I. think it no it it goes It goes down but. if it didn't that's how much you should. drink I think is what Joe is getting and.

he wasn't talking about the eight. glasses thing and well it was a quality. of life for different reasons thing. there's there's all kinds of reasons I. mean I think you end up he thought it. kind of had a like a jump start kind of. effect on you and also I think it causes. you not eat as much the rest of the day. because you kind of got a full stomach. to begin with and you know you you make. sure that you can be hydrated cuz you. really can't you can drink too much. water it's not about losing weight it's. about Vitality I think is what he was. getting at he know us need to lose. weight it's about being vital well all I. know is I've been doing it you've been. doing it we have been doing it and I.

think that you have been doing a little. bit more drinking water uh have been. doing a little bit more water. consistently than me but I had to cut. back because what I was doing I was. doing a pint of water and then I was. right out of bed well you know like in. the first 15 minutes I didn't like roll. out of bed and. like I I like did some other things you. know like like walked to the K out of. the bedroom but then I would drink the. pine of water I would literally do it. while still in bed like a hamster cage. kind of thing next to you no it just. drink glass I would have the glass ready.

before my feet hit the ground okay but. I've been doing that and then I do. coffee right after and I come out here. and I end up I don't I really I don't. drink my own pee don't misquote me on. that but I pee a lot it's because I do. the the water and then I do the diuretic. you know that's what tea is right or. coffee and Co yeah coffee and I. literally seven or eight times before. lunchtime I mean that's not normal. that's not right you shouldn't be doing. that I had to cut back I've already peed. four times and I oh five no just kidding.

you know but yeah what it's it's. interrupting our workflow yeah yeah yeah. that that flow is interviewing the. workflow interfering with so but but my. Vitality has increased dramatically. anyway this is this is kind of what I'm. getting at and you cry easier more. easily too yeah because the tears are. there this is a drier climate christe my. wife she's having all types of problem. with her eyes because it's so much drier. here she drinking the Pint she I don't. think so she needs to be drinking the. pint maybe you need be drinking the.

paint let me tell you so I'm I'm looking. through my Netflix account and I'm. browsing for something that's not in my. queue and I see this documentary called. tapped seen it and I knew it was about. water because you had seen it and then. pairing it with the fact that I needed. to pee because of Joe I uh I clicked on. it and I watched it just the other night. now it's a good movie I I recommend. watching it it's it's like an hour and. 15 minute documentary it's about the. bottle water industry there's a plane.

flying low overhead it could be. transporting water to drop on a wild. fire now now now in extenuating. circumstances or like disaster. situations this is a great thing to have. or places where there's not water but in. the United States of America where we. have a lot of water and we have a thing. called the. tap their argument the whole dis the. whole uh I was going to say dissertation. but I don't even know what that is yeah. well that's you're right that to get a.

PhD their point is that we shouldn't be. buying these these things that we bought. before watching the movie and having our. refrigerator bottled water and of course. there's a couple of points here the main. point is just simple economics let's. just start there uh what you get I mean. first of all this is this let's start. with ingredients not economics okay. ingredients what you may not believe. this but what is in the majority of. bottled water that you can go buy at the. grocery store is essentially the same. stuff that you can get out of a tap even.

if it has a picture of a mountain on it. or a picture of a geyser or something. like that if you actually read the fine. print a lot of times it'll come out and. say it this was bottled from Municipal. Water Source meaning that the same thing. that we're getting tap water out of is. the same thing that's going into these. bottles now granted a lot of these. companies will run that Municipal Water. that tap water through like an Advanced. Filtration thing to make it purer but. the bottom line is all you got to do is. slap a little filter onto the edge of. your onto the end of your faucet and you.

get the same exact thing for a whole lot. cheaper so just so now I'm moving into. the economics and and a lot of the. different a lot of the different states. well all of the states are regulated to. such a point they think they do a good. job in the film to talk about how it's. regulated by the EPA so you're going to. you're going to get something that's. highly regulated not going to poison you. even if you don't put the pure filter or. whatever Brit of filter you want on. there uh but yeah it you're paying for. something that cost a lot more than the. price of gas yeah yeah the water in.

those bottles it's a ripoff is a ripoff. cuz it's more expensive than fuel more. expensive than gas we've been dup by. marketing and you know so I I just say. Watch the documentary ultimately the. application for me is once we go through. this water here we're going to one we're. going to recycle this and then two we're. not going we're just going to pop on the. filter and we're going to use a BPA free. water bottle like this but we're not. going to share one R and we're going to. drink our water out of this get your own. and I get my own but here's one of the. most interesting things that I learned.

in this thing and you may have heard. about this is this thing called the. Great Pacific Garbage Patch and this is. a huge patch of garbage I think there's. one in the Atlantic and one in the. Pacific but there's one in the middle of. the Pacific it's the largest landfill on. the earth is in the ocean out there in. the Pacific around Hawaii and there's. this the way that the current not. literally around Hawaii listen man the. way the currents work in the middle of. the Pacific Ocean they end up basically.

trapping all this trash all the trash. that goes and falls on the ground goes. into the creek goes into the river then. goes into the ocean and this thing has. like swelled to like the size of the. State of Texas and it's just trash out. there in the middle of the the ocean now. I got excited when I first heard about. this before watching the movie because I. thought that this was another continent. forming like a land mass we could be. like kings of the garbage patch yeah we. could go out there and lay claim to it. we could have crowns yeah but you can't. walk on it because it's like a slurry of.

trash but another thing one the most. common ingredient in the Great Pacific. garbage pack is plastic plastic like you. see in and it makes it just makes no. sense just to. purchase convenience to be contributing. to that now you say but I recycle and. yeah you know we recycle I recycle but I. don't recycle 100% of the time and I'm. buying this convenience part of the. convenience is this when I'm done with. it I throw it away I don't hoard it. until I get back home in my car and then.

I recycle them I'm just being honest so. why not Short Circuit the whole thing. and just keep your BPA free water bottle. and just fill it up with or you know tap. filter tap we could keep throwing stuff. into the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. until it gets so big that it just. reaches it adds onto the side of the. United States and Japan and we can walk. to Japan and then see that girl that's. the Hologram in concert at any time that. we want so I take I take everything back. that we said drink bottled water don't. recycle throw it all on the side of the.

road so it'll go down into the creek go. down to the river create the biggest. Pacific Garbage Patch that we've ever. seen get enough so we can walk across it. and see that girl in Japan that performs. as a hologram so just scratch everything. we've set up until now let's end this. episode Rett gives link a fatherly. lecture and you can you you can talk. about anything you want using that water. bottle.

hey Dad you call me in here for. something listen son I got something I. need to tell you uh you know my daddy. one thing he told me was that your hair. from the top of your head to the bottom. of the back of your hair should never be. longer than one of these bottles right. here as you can see you got a little. like beetles like Paul McCartney kind of. thing happening down here this is I. don't approve of that really trying to. be cool dad you're not an expert on that. I would go as far as to say that's. sinful right there that little extra. inch of hair right there listen son I.
