Something Blue: Love Letters To The Ocean

著者: Lily Holbrook
  • サマリー

  • Where do you imagine when I ask you to think of something blue? Maybe it's an ocean, a river or a lake, maybe it's the feeling you get when you take a sip of water, or the calmness in your mind as you sit at the water's edge. Water is there for every chapter of our lives, and in this podcast, we'll be discovering the untold stories of our love affair with water. I'll be inviting guests to share their something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue, as we dive into the realm of all things water and take a moment to appreciate the truly wonderful nature of blue spaces.

  • Dedicate your life to the water: Ashlea Mallett, Head of Sustainability & Campus Services at University College Birmingham
    2024/11/08

    In today's episode, I'm chatting with Ashlea Mallett, Head of Sustainability & Campus Services at University College Birmingham and all-round lover of the waterways.


    In this episode, we discuss Ashlea's life on a narrow boat, the joys of being a pebble person and her innate connection to blue spaces.


    Something Old: 'I was always in the water...I basically grew up in a bikini'

    Something New: Sea bins, filtration systems on inland waterways to combat river pollution

    Something Borrowed: 'All rivers lead to the ocean' - a call to action for what you can do locally

    Something Blue: 'Being sat at the front of the bow of a yacht while it's going through the waves, just by sail power is one of the most powerful and serene things you can do. It's where I've found the most quietness ever'

  • Never stop talking about the ocean: Andrew Lewin, Host of How To Protect The Ocean
    2024/10/08

    In today's episode, I'm chatting with Andrew Lewin, Host of How To Protect The Ocean podcast and undisputed marine conservation superman!


    In this episode we discuss Andrew's unrelenting ocean advocacy, colourful manta rays made of recycled flip flops and why he'll never stop talking about the ocean.


    This episode was recorded soon after the passing of Wallace J. Nichols, marine biologist, author and founder of the Blue Mind movement. A huge source of inspiration for me and so many others, I was so grateful to Andrew for holding the space to reflect on J's inspiring work.


    Something Old: 'I grew up in Ontario, Canada, surrounded by the great lakes but definitely not the oceans. When I first really discovered and fell in love with the ocean was watching a Jacques Cousteau documentary...'

    Something New: Angelo Villagomez decolonizing ocean conservation / Asha de Vos (founder of Oceanswell) protecting blue whale populations from ship strikes in Sri Lanka

    Something Borrowed: The Salmon People podcast (ocean justice, indigenous rights). ‘There’s a lot of ways you can take a piece of content like that, that’s so good. A lot of times I’ll take what people have said and I’ll start that conversation’

    Something Blue: 'I look just near the back of the boat and I see these little swirls of water as you go by...and it's like a little trance that I go into.'

    In today's episode, I'm chatting with my friend Joe Moody, who is an Aquarist at Whitby Lobster Hatchery.


    Mine and Joe's ocean story began when we started studying marine biology together - and a fishy friendship was born.


    Now a passionate Aquarist at Whitby Lobster Hatchery, in this episode we discuss Joe's love of Ireland, crustaceans and the water close to home.


    Something Old: "My first vivid memory as a kid, is being on the ferry going to Ireland for the first time..."

    Something New: The opening of the Discovery Centre and work of @whitbylobsterhatchery to restore lobster populations

    Something Borrowed: 'The Sea Is Not Made of Water: Life Between the Tides' - Adam Nicolson and Kate Boxer
