"Hi, my name is Terri Lynne and I'm here on behalf of Expert Village. And this is David O'Donald. And in this segment, we're going to be talking about proper hydration for that audition. Now David, it's very important that you have to drink all of these right now, ok? You see, hydration is extremely important for an actor. It's their vocal cords that they rely on everyday. And when you go into those auditions and there's hot lights and there's pressure, you could very easily get dry-mouth and clam up and not be able to get the words out properly. So you should drink a minimum of 8 to10, 8-ounce glasses of water a day. And I'm sorry, pop doesn't count. Coffee doesn't count. Try to stay actually away from caffeinated beverages if you could. So 8 to 10 glasses a day, now if you're living in a place with high humidity or high elevation, you might want to increase that to about 12 glasses a day. How you doing there David? Do have any idea of where the bathroom?"
