  • This podcast is a precis of one of the most disgustingly 'woke' shows on Irish radio thes days (and believe me there's a lot of competition in that area unfortunately).

    The other week I heard one of their TV reviewers complaining about a new American show aimed primarily at LGB teens.

    He said he was disappointed that the depictions on screen of the two teenaged gays only showed them kissing, and that he would have preferred to see them (and I quote) 'explore each other' more on screen.

Can having a bath make you run faster?
Q: And do you know why this heat produces this effect in people?
We think heating causes an initial plasma contraction followed by an adaptive increase in plasma volume and red blood cell mass, effectively optimizing the red blood cell to plasma ratio over time.
Can having a bath make you run faster?
Q: And did that translate into actual results when they were running?
The VO2 max test suggested a performance gain, evidenced by an increase in treadmill speed at the top end, though we didn't measure a direct performance race time.
