Around the Counter with Molly & Great Salt Lake

Utah sits at a pivotal crossroads regarding the future of the Great Salt Lake. In this episode of Around the Counter with Molly & Friends, we are doing something different. In partnership with Where the Water Was, we interviewed activists, organizations, and regular people about the problems facing Great Salt Lake, their solutions, why they are running 260 miles to raise awareness, and what their favorite memories of the lake are. This isn’t a normal podcast, but this isn’t a normal problem. Learn more about Where the Water Was and how you can get involved, donate to Grow the Flow & Utah Rivers Council, Sign the People’s Charter for the Great Salt Lake, and/or vote for Great Salt Lake champions in the midterm elections on November 03, 2026. If you want to follow along more closely, we’re doing all sorts of cool stuff over on Footprints Instagram. Thanks for pulling up a stool. Want to grab a glass and join the conversation?
