Something Blue: Love Letters To The Ocean
Podcast Description
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.

In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Cal McCabe, Wildlife Documentary Editor and all-round nature enthusiast. Making the move from Bristol to the Isle of Arran in pursuit of an island adventure, Cal radiates a genuine love for the natural world. Rooted in curiosity and a passion for protecting our wild waters in an ever-changing world, Cal is full of captivating stories that reflect the very human in all of us. With our shared love of Sauna and swimming in the sea, this episode was a joy to record!
Something Old: Amazingly happy family holidays in Devon and Cornwall, rockpooling and hearing stories of the sea from their grandad
Something New: Grassroots empowerment of indigenous communities around the world. The High Seas Treaty recently establishing a framework to protect marine life in international waters
Something Borrowed: The dedication of Cheryl Alexander and her connection to the lone sea wolf Takaya
Something Blue: ‘The sea is my watery domain of choice. The smell of the salt, the sound of the waves…’ The meeting of land and sea for Sauna.
