You know it's a common misconception that drinking eight glasses of water a day is enough for healthy hydration but sweat consists of water and sodium

which means that you need water plus electrolytes to stay properly hydrated.

Thankfully, there are products like Element that have all your Electrolyte needs covered.

You can try an Element Recharged sample pack by going to drink LM-M-N-T.com slash Alexi for only the cost of shipping.

Hello Sunshine, I'm Alexi Lollis and welcome in the State of the Union Pot.

When we look at the beautiful game on and off the field

through the lens of red, white and blue colored glasses.

This week we'll be talking obviously gold cup and Olympics and

MLS and Woodstock and Ted Lasso and Water skiing and so much more.

But first joining me as always my friend my colleague my guiding light David Mossier

soccer savant and a fox soccer researcher and writer extraordinary

mossy how are you on this Monday July 26 in the year 2021 I am doing well a little

tired and not just because of work I have been waking up early on some of these days to take in some of the Olympic action so I'm into it

Well, we're gonna yeah well we're gonna talk a whole lot more about the Olympics, what it is, what it isn't on and off the field, and all that kind of stuff later on.

I will tell you that, not being, you know, it's some, I'm not making some statement here or anything like that it's just it it is it's a little bit more difficult

although I it it wasn't as difficult back in 2002 during that that that world cup but I have not watched a whole lot of Olympics and certainly in the way that I may have in the past.

And yeah, I mean waking up in the middle of the night is not easy.

Speaking of waking up in the middle of the night, we have a guest today, Mossy.

We have a great guest.
