Cold Plunge Conversations

Andrew and Brandon discuss how the airlines tell us to put on our oxygen mask BEFORE assisting others around us and how this concept should influence other areas of our lives.

What are some of the things we do to get motivated? To get out of bed, to exercise, to get in the cold water, etc?

Something we all need in our lives but don’t always want, accountability. What does it mean to be accountable or to have accountability?

Brandon asks why we sometimes boil over under stress and how we might increase our boiling point and manage our anger!

On this cold plunge conversation we talk about what to do if you want to cold plunge during the summer when cold water is not as easy to find without spending thousands of dollars on a cold plunge tub.

Andrew and Brandon chat about some new movies that just came out and at the end of the episode a 10 year old girl shares her thoughts about cold plunging!

Brandon decides to do a mid week cold plunge to see if it might help his back feel better after dealing with a pinched nerve . Research shows cold water submersions can reduce inflammation in joints and muscles. Will it also help with his back?

Andrew and Brandon discuss why relationships are so important in our lives, as well as why some relationships can be difficult.

The waters getting murky, it’s windy, there might be dead bodies in the water, and in general cold plunging sucks! Oh, and a huge welcome to our listenership in Norway!!!

Today’s question prompts Andrew and Brandon to talk about what they do in their spare time and how we can make better choices with the little unplanned moments in our lives.

Andrew and Brandon share thoughts on how to break bad habits as well as start good ones. Andrew rejects the title of “assistant cold plunger” and Brandon thinks they might have a good legal case against Snickers candy bar.

As Brandon plunges in 33* water, Andrew joins remotely while sitting in a 140* sauna! While we might have been 107* apart we both share our thoughts on the question, “what is the difference between a habit and a discipline?”

On today’s episode: breaking through 4” of ice, cold plunging with fruit, and how we got started cold plunging in the first place!

This episode we break the ice to get in, read some listener comments, answer the question “why do difficult people things”, and get out. It’s the new norm.

Goodbye 2023! I say farewell to a lovely year doing my cold plunge in North Carolina with my nephew Jacob. I end the episode with my first ever cold water cannonball!

Although this was my first solo plunge I ended up having plenty of little feet joining in the “fun”. Thank you Lucy and Ezra as well as my own girls Emma, Lily, and Natalie for helping me pass the time in the cold water! (40-air, 35-water)

Andrew and Brandon get back at it and decide to start doing their plunge in the afternoon to avoid the morning ice breaking.

Andrew and Brandon are the only two who “brave” the plunge this morning as they break the ice to get in.

We try to recall highlights of Thanksgiving but cold water shock makes it hard to remember what happened just the day before!

The coldest one so far, Andrew tries out his new booties, and the cure for the common cold! Maybe not…

What is cold plunging really like? Imagine going through all the stages of grief, in just a few minutes.

The beginning of our cold plunging experience.
