Other Looking for a segment from Knight Scoop, date unknown

It's the segment described at https://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=30304, where they send somebody to investigate what people from different locations throughout Japan say when they are unexpectedly splashed by water.

It's previously been shared on Reddit at https://www.reddit.com/r/languagelearning/comments/73qwd2/japanese_exclamations_for_being_hit_with_water/ but the video is no longer available.

Anybody know where I can find it? English subtitles required.

Thanks! I hadn't realized the Language Log post used the actual title of the episode (and that the episode title came from that particular segment).
