Summary

We don’t like to make a habit of surrendering to listener demands, but with so many people metaphorically and literally banging down our doors begging us to cover this topic, we finally decided to relent.    In what may be Kristin’s most autistic episode to date, she’s taking us through the long and winding history of water bottle trends. From Nalgene to Stanley, she’s laying out the pros and cons of the most popular drinking vessels on the market, calling out the toxic consumerism tactics used by Big Bottle™ to create this collector’s craze, and making some bold predictions for trends to come.  Resources: Florida Officials: Don't Eat Python Meat (outsideonline.com) Why Did Stanley Water Bottles Suddenly Become a Cultural Phenomenon? - The Ringer Stanley cups took the world by storm.
