I love weird and wonderful things. In Switzerland they have Rivella, made with milk whey. Deliciously refreshing.

In Czechia they have Kofola, the BuyEU poster drink. It looks like a cola drink but the taste is fairly different in a good way. They have cherry and lemon variants too!

I had the most delicious coconut flavoured fizzy water in Lanzarote, the brand name is Firgas, I believe it is a Canariense brand.

Japan has Calpis, don’t mind the name because this stuff is insanely good! It’s a tangy yoghurt based drink. The Korean equivalent is Milkis, equally delicious.

Talking about Korea, Lotte makes a pine bud drink (sorry can’t link to that one!) and it’s such an unusual and refreshing drink I really recommend it. They also have sikhye which is a drink made of fermented rice (amazake in Japan, jiuniang in China). And on the topic of rice drinks, Woongjin morning drink is superb, it’s a bit pricey outside of Korea but so worth it.

Now for the number one in my heart, the drink I could inject in my veins because I like it so much is Liptonic. It’s a fizzy ice tea and it’s a crime it’s not available everywhere.

Looks like Mulder and Scully will have to make a comeback!

Superb interview! I had boulder dash on the nes as a kid, I loved playing it but never made it past the 2nd world

That’s so kind of you! Let me know if you find your reels I’m sure husban-san would love to scan them (and send them back on an SD card if you don’t want them uploaded for the world to see)

He has a Kodak reels film digitiser (that’s what it says on the machine), it scans the film bit by bit and transfers it on an SD card. It’s kind of loud and annoying lol

My husband does, I think it’s really cool (disclosure: I may be a little biased). He buys random super 8 film canisters on eBay, scans them and uploads them on his channel.
