All language subtitles for Hack My Life s01e09 Swimming in Hacks.eng

Life hacks or shortcuts designed to make
your life easier. This show is meant to

help you, not hurt you. So hack at your
own risk.

After you've worked up a manly sweat on
the court, regular deodorant just won't

cut it. You need something that will
take care of even the toughest odors.

You need vodka.

The only deodorizing body spray that's
nothing but 100 proof vodka.

Vodka kills bacteria and neutralizes
odors. Don't let odor keep you on the

sidelines. Reach for vodka.

Vodka. Enjoy vodka responsibly. Also
available in new horseradish and dill

fence. You'll be in good spirit with
vodka.

Tonight on Hack My Life. There she is.
Prepare to be shocked and awed by our

practical and handy hack. Bam!

Did you know that everything you need to
make a sweet swimming pool is in your

garage? Feels like I'm taping off a
crime scene. But we'll show you a trick

will have you eating fresh tasting
bagels every morning.

Shut up.

And if you're sick of being thick, check
out our healthy hack of the week.

This is Hack My Life.

Apparently lighting a candle and also
chewing gum are two...

Separate hacks that keep you from being
a blubbery mess while you chop onions.

So today we're going to put these hacks
to the test and then hack versus hack.

The gum apparently is an effective hack
because while you chew it, you are

breathing through your mouth, which
doesn't let the noxious onion fumes

your sinuses and then come out through
your tear ducts. A candle.

Supposedly the flame will absorb and
burn off any of the enzymes from the

onions. We'll see.

All right, let's get to it. Oh, you know
what? To be fair, though, I'm wearing a

lot of mascara, and it's going to run
down my face. Oh, you'll be fine. Don't

worry about it. Well, I mean, I want,
you know, the audience to know that,

you're crying, and it would look kind of
great if you had on mascara, too.

Just keep things fair. I promised my
father I wouldn't wear that on camera

anymore. All right, all right, all
right. But it's fine. I'll be your boy.

I don't like this.

I don't like this at all.

Okay. Ooh.

It's the chopping.

I'm so excited about this. All right, so
I'm going to chew some gum.

I'm going to light my old candle here.

Okay, I can already smell some of those
fumes.

I'm actually not crying right now.

Candle's not working at all. Maybe, oh,
okay. I can't even look down a bit.

I'm doing all right.

I've got two down.

It's disgusting how much gum I have in
my mouth, but I feel like I'm kind of

just powering through.

This is great. I'm going to keep my
mascara on. I don't know about you,

Are you waving a flag over there?

No. No?

No.

I would 100 % have had to leave the room
if I wasn't chewing gum.

Ugh.

Kevin, I'm hurting for you. Cut it out.
I'm done.

I'm done.

This is no good. The candle hack, it
doesn't work at all. Gum work?

Gum work?

I will stand behind this. I'm surprised.

Do I look beautiful now?

You know I think you're beautiful.

Building a swimming pool usually
requires a lot of time and money and a

bulldozer. But hackers, they can get it
done with just a duct tape, a tarp, a

garden hose, and a truck.

It's time to find out if building a
swimming pool in the back of your pickup

hack or whack.

Brian, how are you, man? I'm good. Yeah?
Yeah. Your words say good, but

everything else says you are concerned.

You know, this is my baby. I just put a
lot of money into this. What better way

to add value to a pickup than by turning
it into a swimming pool, right?

Do you think it's going to work? I think
maybe it's got a 60 % chance of

working. To be completely honest, that's
10 % more than I give it.

Let's try it, shall we? Yeah, let's
build a pool. Let's do it.

And we've got to start with the tarp.
All right. So go ahead and grab one end,

and we're going to unfold it and just
scrape it on over.

The more we can get it flush with the
bed now, the better it'll be once we

it with water. Now we've got to secure
it. That's what the duct tape is for.

I'm just going to try to keep it as
tight as possible.

It feels like I'm taping off a crime
scene.

Yeah.

No, I think we got it. Yeah.

I could see you easily falling in love
with this and keeping this as a

fixture. For sure. Yeah, right? Let's
fill this bad boy with some water. Do

Well, Breen, we got a problem.

We got a sweet pickup pool going, and it
can definitely fit more than two dudes.

How about I go inside and make some
calls? Sweet, yeah. All right. Thanks.

Oh, man, we are ready to test out the
pickup truck swimming pool.

We're going to find out if it's a pack
or a whack.

Oh, that is perfect.

Yeah. Yeah.

Whoa.

On the plus side, it's cheap, it's
portable, it assembles in seconds. Okay,

let's render a final verdict, shall we?
Is this hack or is this whack? It is a

little bit whack just because it is very
cold.

It should be an ice skating rink and not
a pool.

Definitely whack.

I'm going with whack.

I think even in the summertime it would
still be cold. If this was like 100

degree temperature, this could be a lot
of fun. So I think it is a hack.

All right, three to one.

I'm going to make it four to one. If the
day were absolutely right, if the sun

were scorching you, this would be a fun
novelty. Today?

Mm -mm. Not having it. Four to one. The
pickup pool is whack.

Sometimes an item is so useful, it
ascends into the pantheon of great

tools. Today, we celebrate one of those
simple household items that truly has

become a hack all -star.

Coffee filters.

You can shield stacked china from
scratches and nicks by layering a filter

between each delicate piece.

Use a coffee filter as a protective
covering over a bowl when microwaving

precious leftovers.

Clean dirty glass with a coffee filter
instead of a paper towel. It won't leave

any lint or residue behind.

Self -conscious about your stinky feet?

Don't be!

Pour some baking soda into a coffee
filter.

Tie it up and slip it into your shoe
overnight.

Then go call your doctor about that foot
fungus.

All Star. The only thing better than
bacon is bacon grease.

Use a coffee filter to strain particles
out of the grease so you can reuse it

later. All Star.

When you're taking a close -up photo,
place a coffee filter over the flash to

soften the brightness.

All Star.

There's so much more than a coffee
filter.

You're the newest member of the All Star
Club.

Coming up, we'll show you how a simple
bar of soap could get your security

deposit back. Watch out, Martha.

Plus, can you turn that bike you never
ride into a clock? We'll show you how.

Oh, look at that masterpiece.

Yes, you love them. But living in tight
quarters with another person can be

challenging, especially during flu
season.

To protect yourself, you need a hack
line of defense against your sick

After they blow their nose, your sick
spouse insists on throwing their dirty

tissues around the living room.

To prevent your entire house from
becoming contaminated, rubber band an

tissue box to a full one. Now any germs
will be kept in one place.

Your sick spouse is constantly asking
for a massage to soothe their aching

To take the pressure off of your hands,
make a heating pad.

Pour uncooked rice into a long sock,
then tie a knot and microwave it for 30

seconds. Then place it on their
shoulders for immediate relief.

You just spent six hours making your
grandma's famous chicken and noodle

but your sick spouse has a sore throat
and won't eat it. To ease their pain,

hot water and powdered gelatin together
in a bowl.

Stir in a teaspoon of honey and serve as
an appetizer.

The honey and gelatin will coat their
throat and still leave room for gram

soup. Your sick spouse is snoring like a
drunken elephant because of their

stuffy nose.

Well, to silence their snores, cut open
an onion and put it on their side of the

bed. The vapors should help open sinus
passageways.

Ah, sweet dreams.

Just as you're sitting down to relax,
your sick spouse asks you to run to the

drugstore and get medicine for their
headache.

Well, instead of heading out, head into
the kitchen and grab a handful of

almonds. They're high in magnesium and
vitamin E, which can help soothe

by relaxing blood vessels.

Now your sick spouse won't ruin
everything because you have a hack line

defense.

Two words that can ruin anyone's
morning.

Dale Bagel. But fear not, I have a hack
that can breathe new life into these bad

boys. Today we're in a deli to find out
if people can tell the difference

between our hack, and the fresh -baked
good ones.

Tell me, bagel lovers, can you hack it?

All right, I'm joined now by Bagel Tony,
and you are known for the finest bagels

in town. So I've been told. Today we're
going to try to hack a stale bagel into

a fresh one.

Okay. We are going to take some paper
towels.

We're going to get them nice and damp.
We're going to wrap them around a bagel

and microwave for 10 to 20 seconds. And
that should rehydrate the bagel, and

supposedly it's going to make it taste
as good as one of your fresh bagels.

Really? That's the hack. Huh.

You believe that?

I don't know. I've never tried it.

Let's do it. Do you think you can tell
the difference between, like, a three

-day -old stale bagel and a fresh one?

Yeah. One half is three days old, but we
did a hack on it to make it fresh

again. The other half is fresh. If you
can tell me the difference on your

they're yours for free.

Get a little bite in there.

And bagel on your right.

I'm going to say I think this is the
half.

One of these halves?

Bagel Tony's, freshest and finest. The
other half, a stale bagel that I

performed a hack on. The left one is a
little bit more tough.

I'm going to say the left one is the
hack. The one on the left.

I'm going to go with the one on the
right.

That's the hack.

Going on here, right? Or maybe his hack
is... I'm just going to eat both halves

and then leave.

And he got three bagels. I think that's
what's happening.

This is a pressure bagel, and this one's
hacked. Which bagel do you think is our

hacked bagel? One, two, three. That one.

You guys are perfect for each other.

I'm from New York.

Okay. I know bagels. You should know
bagels. I think this is a hacked bagel.

Okay, let's check out the result.

You think that is the hacked bagel?
Yeah, this one tastes a lot better.

you know what's crazy? The bagel on your
right is the hacked bagel.

Shut up.

That is our hacked bagel.

It's going to be the one on the right.

You're right.

The one on the right was the hacked
bagel. Well, congratulations, sir. You

half of a fresh, plain bagel.

You should do that to all your bagels.

I would never have guessed it, Tony. The
overwhelming majority of people, they

liked our bagel hack.

Yeah, I was actually incredibly
surprised. I had no idea that it was

the way it was, and I was impressed.

Do you have any other skills?

Painting.

Moving can be a giant hassle, but with
the right hacks, you'll wish you could

move every time there's a new harassment
lawsuit.

Oh, Kev.

Here's how to hack your moving day.

Snap a pic of your electronic setup.
It'll help you remember where every cord

and cable is supposed to go.

Now, before you patch your soap, use it
to fill small holes in your walls.

This hack might just save your security
deposit.

Every once in a while, use it on
yourself.

Huh, Kev? Okay.

Pack your books in a rolling suitcase.

It'll be easy to move, and you won't
have to worry about ripping a cardboard

box. You can use a razor blade to cut
handles into the sides of boxes for

carrying. Lastly, put string under
packing tape when sealing your boxes.

Then, when you want to open them, just
yank the ripcord.

Congratulations!

You just hacked your move.

To the seasoned hacker, one man's trash
is another man's treasure. And today,

the treasure is a bike rim. And we are
going to turn this bad boy, this sweet

rim, into a clock.

What are we going to need? Well,
obviously we need some numbers.

You might have these lying around.

You know, if you live on a street, your
neighbors probably have these. So just

go and pluck them right off their house.
They're not going to miss them.

We'll need some glue, some hands.

This is a clock kit. If you really want
to spice things up, you can take a gear

or any leftover bike parts.

and mount them as well step one we want
to take our numbers and we're going to

glue them around the rim so we can tell
the time all right we're just going to

press and hold okay we got our 12 on i
had a six down below oh my god all

pro watch out martha you watch out now
we're going to take our clock kit you

pick one up at a craft store and we're
going to power it with a simple battery

that we had lying around won't be able
to change channels for a while but At

least our clock's going to work. And
place her there.

We're going to take our gear.

All right, now we need some hands to
tell the time.

Oh, look at that masterpiece.

Bam! Takes a couple minutes to make for
hours of enjoyment.

Turn a bike rim into a clock with some
simple hacks.

Coming up next, say goodbye to Chapliff
with a sweet hack.

There she is. What?

Save money on gas and don't get stranded
on the side of the highway.

Follow our hack and your road trip will
be golden.

Today

we're

going to learn the lazy way to prepare
steak.

It's called steak sous vide, and in
French that means meat bag. You need a

plastic bag, you need a steak, you need
some water, and you need a cooler.

So your first step is you're going to
take water, enough to just partially

the cooler. Pour that in here.

Okay, your next step involves bagging
the meat.

You want to get all the air out of the
bag.

And this is the best and most fun step.
You just simply toss your meat into the

cooler of water.

And now you've got an hour until it's
done cooking.

All right, so it's been an hour. Let's
check on the steak TV.

There she is. Let's plate it.

Mmm, that looks delicious.

Yeah, it's actually pretty done.

So it is cooked through.

Technically, you can eat it. The
question is, should you?

Martha and Bill are on a road trip. But
there are two kinds of Martha and Bill.

Flacker Martha and Bill, they reject the
hacker lifestyle.

While Hacker Martha and Bill embrace it.
And to see just how different each

couple's road trip experience is, we've
created this reenactment.

Flacker Martha and Bill run out of gas
by the side of the road. Because they

weren't paying attention to their fuel
tank.

Hacker Martha and Bill fill up their
tank late at night. Gas slightly expands

with heat, so filling it up when it's
cooler outside allows more gas to fit in

the tank. But it only expands a little,
so they don't have to worry about their

tank overflowing.

Slacker Martha and Bill don't know what
side of the car their gas tank is on,

forcing them to make an awkward 15
-point turn at the pump.

But Hacker Martha and Bill look for the
arrow on the gas icon inside their car,

saving them time and embarrassment.

Blacker Martha and Bill are always
digging around for loose coins when they

to a toll booth, holding up the line and
infuriating others. Get out of here.

Hacker Martha and Bill store their
change in an old gum container so it's

to go at a moment's notice.

All right, there you go. Perfect. Have a
good one. You too.

Blacker Martha and Bill have to call for
roadside assistance in the winter when

their door locks freeze shut.

Hacker Martha and Bill call upon hand
sanitizer.

Hand sanitizer contains alcohol, which
has a lower freezing point than water.

It heats up the ice upon contact,
allowing Martha and Bill to get their

the lock.

Slacker Martha and Bill waste time
scraping frost off their windows the

after a storm.

But Hacker Martha and Bill prepare by
spraying vinegar and water on the

the night before.

Vinegar, like alcohol, melts the ice
because it freezes at a lower

than water.

Way to embrace the open road, Hacker
Bill and Martha.

So I'm having friends over to watch a
movie and eat some popcorn, but I've run

out of bowls. Now what?

No problem. Use coffee filters, the
newest member of the All -Star Club, as

individualized popcorn bowls.

Okay, but I need to make coffee in the
morning, and I've just used all my

filters as bowls. So now what?

Settle down. Just use some paper towels
you have lying around the house to make

coffee filters.

Okay, but now I have a caffeine high,
and I gave myself a paper cut. But I

up all the paper towels, there's coffee
filters, so there's nothing to clean up

the blood.

Now what?

I got it.

Use some lip balm, and that nasty paper
cut will stop bleeding in no time.

Well, now my lips are chapped, and all
my lip balm is gone because it's all

my finger.

Now what?

Would you relax?

Just dab some honey on your lips to have
them feeling good as new.

Okay. Yeah, well, my lips feel great.
Got honey all over them. Now there's

nothing to sweeten my tea with, so now
what?

Just drop a mint in there. Your tea will
be as sweet as you remember.

Okay, but I'm about to go on a date, and
I need to freshen up my breath, and I

just used my last mint to sweeten my
tea. Now what?

Head into the kitchen and rinse your
mouth with salt water. This natural

freshens your breath instantly, and now
you're ready for your date and a night

of salsa dancing.

We're not going salsa dancing.

But you could.

We're...

Coming

up, we take a look at which hacks will
save you money

on breakfast.

I'm done. And our hack of the week will
keep you from getting the sniffle.

We've shown you a lot of hacks today.

That's the hack. Shut up. But before we
send you on your way, let's delve a

little deeper into four of our best to
help you become a true hacker.

Bam!

The award for best time saver is taking
a picture of your TV cord setup before

you move.

When you arrive at your new place,
hooking up your electronics will be a

So don't waste two hours pulling your
hair out. Spend ten minutes instead.

The award for biggest money saver.

Hacking a fresh tasting bagel.

A dozen fresh bagels can run you upwards
of $10.

Most bakeries give away their bagels at
the end of the day or sell them for much

less.

With our hack, you won't even be able to
taste the difference and you'll save

some cash.

The least likely to succeed, building a
swimming pool in the back of your

pickup. The coolest thing about this
hack is the temperature of the water. If

you love the idea of taking an ice bath,
well, take a dip in your truck.

Otherwise, just join a pool.

And finally, our hack of the week.

Attaching two tissue boxes together to
prevent a total germ invasion.

Just because someone in your house is
sick doesn't mean you should be too.

Since youth tissues can contain millions
of germs, you're better off keeping

them in a box rather than screwing about
your home.

Use our hack of the week to stay strong
and healthy.

Or just stay in a hotel.
