PoolCast

Chris and Jason

PoolCast is a Florida-flavored swimming-pool podcast that pretends to be useful… and then immediately goes off the deep end. It’s the show where two guys who actually know pools (maintenance, new builds, renovations, automation, salt systems, the whole backyard-oasis lifestyle) sit down to talk shop and somehow end up covering snake identification, alligators that crash camping trips, broken fuel gauges, unfinished Florida canals, and whatever other pure nonsense the week threw at them. Guests drop in, trucks fall apart, and the conversation treats “practical pool advice” and “complete outdoor chaos” as equally important topics. Think of it as the only pool podcast that feels like it was recorded poolside after a few too many. Equal parts solid tips for pros and homeowners… and zero percent chance of staying on the rails. That's the energy.
