Unbottled: A Startup Podcast by Kadeya
Building the Future of Beverage — one sip, one story at a time.
Hosted by Manuela Zoninsein, founder & CEO of Kadeya, Unbottled takes you behind the scenes of building the world’s first closed-loop beverage system—a reusable, refillable, zero-waste alternative to single-use bottles.
In this limited first season, you’ll hear raw, unfiltered conversations with the people rethinking everything we know about water, plastic, and sustainability:
• Founders rewriting the rules of reuse
• Experts exposing myths about recycling and microplastics
• Investors betting on climate hardware
• Workers and operators fueling change from the ground up
From fighting plastic pollution to re-engineering the beverage supply chain, each episode dives into the problems, people, and possibilities behind the bottle.
Because the future of beverage isn’t bottled —
It’s built.
New episodes every Monday.

Forecasting Our Future: Why Climate Is Personal with Meteorologist Angie Lassman
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Everyone talks about the weather, few understand what’s really happening.
In this episode of Unbottled, Manuela sits down with Angie Lassman, certified broadcast meteorologist and environmental reporter at NBC News, to break down the science behind climate change — and why rising heat, extreme weather, and misinformation are reshaping everyday life across the U.S.
Angie shares why clear, credible communication may be one of our most powerful climate tools.
In this conversation, you’ll learn:
- The real difference between weather and climate — and why confusing the two fuels misinformation
- Why extreme heat is one of the deadliest and most overlooked climate threats
- How climate change is already impacting health, housing, insurance, and infrastructure
- Why climate change feels so polarizing — and how trust in science has eroded
- What meteorologists and scientists need to do differently to communicate urgency without fear
- How misinformation spreads — and how to spot credible climate sources
Angie also shares her personal journey — from falling in love with science as a curious kid, to reporting from climate hotspots around the world — and why optimism, education, and action are essential in the face of accelerating change.
Because climate change isn’t a future problem.
It’s a systems problem — and it’s already shaping how we live.
