What a great listen during this time when there's an unknown contaminant in the water in the area where I live. Greetings from Mexico City.

Thanks CC! Their Instagram page is still up if anyone wants to take a look haha. That bottle label is so sus.

Relistening cause I think I was too high the first time and wow this wormhole just goes deeper and deeper huh?

Britiny Hommey

Good god man. This episode haunts my dreams. And I had not heard about the case!

At first, I legitimately thought this was going to be an MLM story. Scientology and politics definitely got me by surprise! Where there's a swindle, there's probably also someone complaining about trampling on their "right" to do it. Also, "Get Real" sounds too much like an inside joke, like, "they'll never guess we're making fun of whomever is buying this crap."

Same!

I try to figure out why ACC's monotone delivery is so damn hypnotically gripping and entertaining... I guess it offers a refreshing, calm, unsensationalized honesty that says, 'look, her's what happened. You decide how you feel about it.'

What a poisonous cocktail of occultist religion, libertarian politics, good old fashion hucksterism, and a twist of plain screwing up! All served up to the innocent and the unsuspecting.

Now I'm scared of water.

~“A FEW SQUIRTS LAY-TER”~ I can see clearly now as alkaline ionized water. I can’t taste any obstacles in my drink…

Mr. Clark

I'm a chemist and when they talked about "breaking up clusters of water molecules" with ionization it hurt my brain. Amazing story, ACC.

Memo

So we've all been drinking "fake water", (shaking fist in the air) "curse you sky!!!"...

“After a few squirts” took me out 😂

Brenda Diaz

My biggest complaint is that my water isn't wet enough.

All the patriots buying up all the Freedom products could very well end up in this same situation.

sucriC drawkcaB

I had to run that back a few times

sucriC drawkcaB

That dude laughing saying he didn’t know what was in the concentrate, so infuriating 🤬

Stephanie Johnson

Also....wetter water. I'm gonna have a stroke y'all
