By Heather Jennings,
Director, Probiotic Solutions®
In the last week of August, Probiotic Solutions® hosted a Wastewater Microbiology Course at our headquarters in Gilbert, Arizona. This educational event with Dr. Toni Glymph-Martin, cosponsored by AZ Water Association and Rural Water Association of Arizona (RWAAZ), successfully served its purpose of helping industry professionals learn more about several complex aspects of wastewater.

Our Water Break podcast has made a splash by reaching the milestone of 5,000 downloads this week. The steady growth of this project feels like a pat on the back and helps us stay motivated to come up with new content for our listeners each month.
According to the statistics report from Blubrry, our podcast hosting service, we have completed 5,014 downloads so far! It’s interesting to know that during the last 30 days we noted a 34% increase in downloads. Since we are now averaging close to 300 downloads per month, many would agree that these numbers look great for a podcast that caters to a very specific audience.
This week, our Water Break Podcast reached the milestone of 4,000 downloads. Our fanbase is growing quickly, as it took us 18 episodes and 16 months to reach 3,000 downloads but then only 3 more episodes to reach the 4,000-download mark. The statistics report from Blubrry, our podcast hosting service, has also let us know that we now have listeners in 63 countries. That’s a lot of interest for a podcast devoted to water and wastewater treatment.
While a great deal of the podcast’s success is due to Heather Jennings being such an amazing, hardworking host, we also send a big Thank You to the 35 guests (so far) who have volunteered to provide over 4,000 hours of free education to the water and wastewater community.
Congratulations to everyone who has participated in helping The Water Break Podcast become a growing success!
