Water is the most boring thing in your pack — right up until it's the biggest problem of your day.
Alison Hill runs LifeStraw, but her background isn't gear. It's infectious disease. She came to the company to tackle waterborne illness, not to start a retail brand.
In this episode: — Why most Americans assume they have safe water, and why that's a misconception — aging infrastructure, lead contamination, boil advisories, unmonitored wells — Responding to Hurricane Helene in the town she grew up in — How much water to actually carry, and why there's no magic number — What dehydration does to your decision-making, which is the part nobody warns you about — How to choose a filter without standing paralyzed in the aisle: start with the use case, not the product — And why you can trust it: a partnership with The Carter Center that has taken Guinea worm disease from about 3.5 million cases a year to ten worldwide
Plus the speed round: Gates of the Arctic, chili pork rinds, lemurs in Madagascar, and the greatest gift the parks give us, in one word.
