| Episode 1 - Part 1: There’s Way Less Water Than You Think - Drip Feed Podcast | 02 févr. 2026 | 00:14:22 | |
Earth is known as the “blue planet” but the amount of water we can actually use might surprise you. In this episode of Drip Feed, we zoom out to explore water on a global scale. How much of the world’s water is actually fresh? What even counts as “fresh water”? And why is the amount we can drink such a tiny fraction of what exists on Earth? We also look at Scotland’s relationship with water, the myth of endless supply, and why this everyday resource is far more precious than most of us realise. This is the big-picture episode, understanding water itself before we dive into how it reaches you. Listen / Watch: Like, follow and subscribe, new episodes drop monthly.

In Episode 2 of Drip Feed, we dive into the history of water & the fact that the water we drink today has been on Earth for billions of years, recycled again and again through rivers, clouds, ice, living things… and yes, even dinosaurs. From Victorian engineering to modern science, we explore what’s changed in how we manage water, how it travels from source to tap, and why protecting it matters more than ever in a changing climate. It’s history, science, and a little bit of watery wonder all in one, short podcast. Listen / Watch: Like, follow and subscribe for new episodes every month.
