Let's chat for a second. When we first started Watershed, we had a hard time grappling with how we should define ourselves. True, we’re a podcast about the environment: the science of ecosystems, our cultural attachments to the environment, the perceptions and interpretations of this space around us.

But an “environmental” label limits us, and has become fused with strong connotations that can alienate many listeners we actually want to reach. So how do you tell the stories you believe are compelling and important, whilst combatting a stigma?

The tension of trying to do good work and facing negative assumptions led us to this week's episode. It's about one man's uphill battle—a man who began his career in his family’s bathtub. Listen on, listen on (here or via our Episodes page).
