Splish, Splash, We’re Still in the Pool!

Episode Summary

In this splashy episode, Andrea and Paulette dive into the age-old debate: should you clean a pool while people are still doggy-paddling around? Paulette takes a hard line, declaring, “If they’re not out in five minutes, I’m turning the vacuum into a torpedo!” Meanwhile, Andrea claims she’s perfected the art of precision vacuuming, confidently maneuvering around cannonballs and floating inflatables like a poolside ninja.IT IS THE FIRM BELIEF OF THE TALKING POOLS PODCAST THAT A POOL SERVICE TECH SHOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING TO THE POOL OR ITS EQUIPMENT WITH BATHERS IN THE POOL. They should be asked to get out - If they refuse to, the pool service company shall refuse to service the pool.

The two recount their most absurd encounters, from patrons insisting on synchronized swimming practice mid-backwash to children refusing to evacuate the pool, claiming, “But it’s my pool!” Who’s right? Who’s wrong? And will we finally settle the Great Swim-Vac Debate of 2024?

Grab your skimmer, dodge the splashes, and tune in for this wet-and-wild ride, featuring bonus content on handling “mystery floaters” (no, not the fun kind). You won’t want to miss it! 🌊💦
