Talking Pools Podcast
If youâve ever stared at a test kit like it personally insulted your family⌠welcome home.
Talking Pools Podcast is the pool industryâs âpull up a chairâ showâpart shop talk, part field manual, part therapy sessionâbuilt for people who actually live on pool decks: commercial operators, service techs, builders, facility managers, and anyone responsible for water that canât afford to go sideways. The network was created to level up the pool industry with real-world conversations on water chemistry, filtration, troubleshooting, construction, safety, and the business side of keeping pools open and budgets intact.
Hereâs the hook: itâs not theory-first. Itâs experience-firstâa roster of seasoned pros (with 250+ years of combined âbeen there, fixed thatâ wisdom) turning complicated problems into practical moves you can use the same day. And itâs not one voice, one vibe, one corner of the industry: itâs a network of shows designed to reflect how diverse this work really isâdifferent regions, different specialties, different personalities.
Also worth saying out loud: women arenât âspecial guestsâ hereâtheyâre on the mic as hosts, from the beginning, with an intentionally balanced roster. That matters, because the best ideas in this industry donât come from one laneâthey come from the whole road.
If you want a podcast that can make you laugh and make you better at what you doâwithout pretending the job is easier than it isâTalking Pools is the one you queue up before the first stop, and keep on when the day starts getting weird.

In this Halloween classic from the Talking Pools Podcast vault, Andrea and Paulette return to the mic with goosebump-worthy stories from the field â the kind that make your skin crawl and your test kit hand tremble. From murky green pools that seemed to breathe on their own, to mysterious ripples that moved when no wind blew, these two share the moments that made even veteran techs question what lurks beneath the surface.
Andrea and Paulette take listeners through 85% pure spine-tingling storytelling, recounting real-life service route scares that start as routine calls and end in eerie encounters. Youâll laugh, youâll squirm, and you might just start double-checking those backyard shadows after dark.
Thenâlike the ghost of chlorine pastâRudy drops in for a cameo to share his infamous âgreen-to-cleanâ gone wrong. Itâs a story where science meets the supernatural, proving that sometimes the scariest thing in pool care isnât the ghost⌠itâs the chemistry.
Perfect for Halloween, this episode blends fright with insightâreminding every pool pro that sometimes, the water remembers. đđ§
