Fun fact about the first crystal skull. It was a sham that an archeologist set up in South America for his daughter to find on her birthday. The reason it’s not feasible for it to have been made is because it was just made in a London shop to the archaeologist’s request. People thought they were real because they knew the Aztecs were amazing sculptors and had a fascination with skull symbols. But a museum worker proved them to be fake in the 90’s since they were made of the wrong kind of quartz and the carving wasn’t similar to the ways the Aztec carved skulls in other artifacts. In short, Dan is really not into research and just wanted a cool looking bottle

I can't fault someone for wanting something cool looking. I can't get behind perpetuating misinformation.

Fun Fact: Alcohol is the antidote to antifreeze, they both latch onto the same receptors but ethanol has priority.

[@Mrgreenman42]

Interesting, I'm familiar with opioids and the Mu-receptor...so are you saying that much like Narcan, the anti-freeze portion will just be pushed out by the ethanol and excreted? Hmmm, chemistry and the human body are indeed almost miraculously complex...and to think, if we hadn't invented alcohol, we could have faced population shortages due to tainted water back in ye olden days...

[@steel8231]

@Mrgreenman42 glycol, methanol, and ethanol are all alcohols, I couldn't tell you why ethanol has priority with the liver but it does (as far as I know it mostly just delays the other 2, it doesn't actually stop them from doing any damage and you should still take a poisoned person to the hospital).

[@ShiroKage009]

​@@Mrgreenman42Methanol (the antifreeze in the antifreeze) toxicity comes from the body's attempt at metabolizing it. The enzyme responsible for neutralizing ethanol is the one that attempts this, but the problem is that when it works on methanol it makes formaldehyde (embalming compound). Luckily, alcohol dehydrogenase being originally meant to work against ethanol has much higher affinity to ethanol. So if you take in a bunch of ethanol, alcohol dehydrogenase will metabolise it first and leave the methanol for later. This gives the kidnies time to filter it out without making formaldehyde and embalming you from the inside-out.

If it tastes good then Dan got a good product, the problem with these pure products with no bad chemicals and sugars from what I've heard is that they taste bad and how healthy they are isn't worth the taste.

[@alexisrivera200xable]

It's a sponsored product. A generic vodka on a pseudo-fancy glass bottle with its marketing doing all the heavy lifting. I tried it back in 2005 on a cruise ship traveling the Caribbean. It tastes as generic as you would expect for cheap vodka. You could literally grab a few of the cheapest vodka you can find and try them blind and you would not be able to tell them apart from this one. You pay a premium for basically the cool bottle. (If you are into the whole cristal skull theme.)

[@Fusseliko]

It's not the worst I've ever had. It was only like 50 bucks, and you mostly buy it so you can meme on Dan. If you ask people that actually like vodka there's probably some about on par as far as taste goes for half that.

[@afterdinnercreations936]

I'd buy that only for the killer-bottle. Then I'd use the bottle exclusively to store green-drinks. "Hey! Who wants some green-Hawaiian punch?"

The only reason to do a filtration step is if you do it before the distillation to prevent solids from clogging the distillery. Filtration can only remove non-dissolved solids. Distilling will also remove the same things, but also remove dissolved solids that won't evaporate, or other liquids mixed into the one you're trying to get, assuming that the two evaporate at different temperatures, which can also depend on the specific mixture proportion.

[@steel8231]

Distilation removes liquid impurities, like remnants from the fermentation process. There's the "Head" "Heart" and "Tail" of distilled spirits, the head is what tastes like drain cleaner, the tail tastes like rot, the heart is what people prefer.

If you’re curious about stuff like the crystal skulls, then i would recommend Decoding the Unknown. The host Simon and the help of his editors (it’s a different one each episode and all have there own take on it to give Simon a variety of opinions on the topic) they through all kinds of mysteries of the world, crypted, lost cities, aliens, skin walkers, All kinds of interesting topics where he and his editor debunk rumors, misconceptions and media. Highly recommend, it’s real fun

Crystal Head Vodka is amazing! In my subjective opinion it's smooth and actually tastes excellent. I know that a lot of people say that Vodka has no taste but if you drink it straight and at room temp, you will notice the flavor and friend, Crystal Head is at the top for taste & quality. If you're interested in high end Vodka, I recommend that you try it..... God bless you Dan Aykroyd

[@Tomha]

I always hated the alien conspiracies. Not because I don't believe in Aliens mind you, it always feels like they're just wanting to say 'I as a modern intellectual cannot comprehend how this could be built, so of course these ignorant savages couldn't possibly do it without Aliens!" "Oh but how could they possibly have moved the stones for Stonehenge? How!?" Maybe Mconel had a dream of the stone pattern, got his friends, got some rope and hauled the stones to where they wanted them to be. I get that the rocks are heavy, obviously, but I bet 3-4 strapping young men who had to do physical labor for a living could haul a rock. They probably had a wagon to help move it.
