I know, it's the back-to-school period; you've got a lot of things on your plate, I get that, so don't worry. 

I won't make that special episode too long, and you'll get a fast-track update on many of the guests and companies that appeared on that microphone.

Today, this podcast turns two! Two years, 222 episodes released, of which 97 were feature interviews, for a total of 105 hours on air. That's a lot of water industry, water sector, water and beyond, whatever we call it, and hopefully a lot of inspiration shots for all of us.

Two years is not much on the scale of the entire sector. Yet, a lot happened for many of my former guests since they appeared on my microphone. 

Today you'll learn who raised the most money since the release of our common discussion, I'll share some milestones and recent projects for some of them, and I'll update you on our background drama: the story of the merger of SUEZ and Veolia. 

I'll also address you with a big thank you! 

We crossed the 50'000 downloads mark somewhen in August, for the podcast alone, and that month was also kind of historic; as for the first time, the podcast in all its shapes surpassed the 200'000 views milestone over all the platforms for August alone.

So let's keep pushing all together: as always, if you like what you hear, tell it to your friends, colleagues, teachers, students, customers, suppliers, and all the ones I forget: that's how I can justify to my wife, my kids and myself, all the time I spend preparing these contents for all of us. Which I, of course, love doing as well!

Season seven of the podcast starts next week with an incredible interview with Piers Clark, the founder and Chairman of Isle Utilities; I have many more inspiring conversations coming up, which I'm excited to share with you, I'll also be at the upcoming international water association's World Congress in Copenhagen next week, and then I'm heading to New York to join Sciens Water's Rethinking Water conference, where I'm looking forward meeting you!

And even though I'm sometimes slow in answering, and I apologize for that, please keep sending me your feedback, suggestions, and recommendations, yes, I'm slow, but I'm always reading and answering!

Again, thank you, and I'll see you next time!
