Podcasts about GDS

The international Global Destination Sustainability (GDS) Index measures the sustainability of tourist destinations in four different categories based on more than 70 indicators. Over a hundred cities around the world committed to sustainability are included in the comparison. This is the second consecutive year that Helsinki has topped the ranking. "Helsinki is investing in sustainable growth in tourism. Our aim is to make Helsinki a welcoming destination for a steadily rising number of travelers. Being the world's most sustainable tourist destination for the second year in a row shows that our work for tourism and its sustainability is paying off," rejoices Mayor of Helsinki Daniel Sazonov. Helsinki most sustainable tourist destination in world "Helsinki continues to raise the bar by defining the 'next practices' of regenerative destination management. Through bold climate action, pioneering sustainability strategies, and a steadfast commitment to transparency, the city demonstrates exceptional vision. Its recognition as the top-ranked destination in the 2025 GDS-Index - for the second consecutive year - is highly deserved," congratulates Guy Bigwood, CEO, GDS-Movement. Helsinki's sustainability is built on cooperation The GDS Index assesses sustainability in four categories: environmental performance, supply chains, destination management and social sustainability. Helsinki's sustainability as a tourist destination is the result of cooperation between many operators. For example, the increasing number of companies with environmental certifications and the more climate-friendly production of district heating and electricity have helped Helsinki reach the top of the list. "Up to 99 % of the rooms of hotels with more than 50 rooms in Helsinki are environmentally certified. This level is significantly higher than in Europe in general. Similarly, more and more destinations, meeting and conference facilities, tour operators and others have environmental certifications," says Tourism Director Nina Vesterinen from the City of Helsinki. Transparency and reliability matter in sustainability In addition to the GDS Index, Helsinki has also performed well in other international assessments of sustainable tourism this year. In March, Helsinki became the first city with over half a million residents to be awarded the Green Destinations GSTC certification, which has the strictest criteria in the world. "For Helsinki, it is essential that sustainability is transparent. Sustainability must be more than just marketing-level greenwashing, which is already demanded by EU legislation requiring environmental claims to be reliable and verifiable. This is why indices and certifications such as GDS and GSTC are important to us," Vesterinen points out. Tourism and city growth call for continued sustainability efforts The tourism year of 2025 has been record-breaking for Helsinki. According to Statistics Finland's accommodation statistics, the number of nights spent by international tourists has increased by 19 % in the first seven months compared to the same period last year. A significant share of this growth comes from congress attendees. "International surveys show that a growing number of tourists are looking for more sustainable services and destinations. As a result, there will continue to be demand for the world's most sustainable destinations. The City of Helsinki, businesses and all tourism operators must continue to systematically invest in the sustainability of tourism," continues Tourism Director Vesterinen. The City of Helsinki has several sustainability-related projects and measures underway. It already measures the carbon footprint of tourism, promotes the measures of Helsinki's climate roadmap for tourism and supports tourism businesses on the path of sustainable tourism. Ensuring the participation and wellbeing of residents is also an important factor in the development of sustainable tourism. "We are promoting tourism with all ar...

If you've ever asked yourself, “What stage of dementia is my loved one in?” you're not alone. I used to think there was a clear answer. I thought if I could just figure out the stage, I'd know what to expect and how to plan ahead. But the truth is, it's a lot more complicated than that. In this video, I'm sharing what I wish I knew sooner about the stages of dementia. I'll go over the different staging systems, like the 3-stage model, the GDS, and the FAST scale. I'll also explain why your loved one might not fit neatly into any stage and what that actually means for your caregiving. Links: Want more tips, tools, and encouragement for your caregiving journey?

Episode 174 Chapter 33, Digital Synthesizers and Samplers. Works Recommended from my book, Electronic and Experimental Music  Welcome to the Archive of Electronic Music. This is Thom Holmes. This podcast is produced as a companion to my book, Electronic and Experimental Music, published by Routledge. Each of these episodes corresponds to a chapter in the text and an associated list of recommended works, also called Listen in the text. They provide listening examples of vintage electronic works featured in the text. The works themselves can be enjoyed without the book and I hope that they stand as a chronological survey of important works in the history of electronic music. Be sure to tune-in to other episodes of the podcast where we explore a wide range of electronic music in many styles and genres, all drawn from my archive of vintage recordings.

Episode 2254 –  Kid A.G. and Hat Trick dissect one of the most disturbing revenge tales ever: a woman discovers her husband was knee-deep in escorts, dies, and instead of torching his memory… she literally eats his ashes. Yep. Bone dust as seasoning. They break it down in detail—how she desecrated him first with a fresh pile of dog shit, then circled back for a posthumous taste test. We dive into why this was her go-to revenge, and offer a list of way better options (none of them involving your taste buds). From there, the convo swerves hard into relationships, trust, and women asking for sperm like it's Uber Eats. Kid shares a Tinder saga involving a smoke-show who didn't want dinner or drinks—just his swimmers. Hat Trick weighs in on whether that's a compliment or a red flag the size of Texas. And of course, no GDS episode is complete without a time-travel moment: an unearthed iPad yields a drunken post-Kid Rock concert clip featuring Dimples losing her shit, headbutts included. We close it all out with the usual man vs. woman breakdown—why guys are garage-tinkering simpletons and women are world-running hormonal Voltrons.

Episode 2250 – The Kid is back in studio with longtime GDS legend Hat Trick, and the honesty hits harder than a peanut butter sandwich shoved into a Childs face. They dive into the real differences between boys and girls, from childhood to puberty, and how dumb guys really are — spoiler: it's bad. Hat Trick brings the insight of a mother of twins, and the duo ends up reminiscing about early porn exposure, sketchy adult video stores, and how technology shifted everything. But it's not just laughs and lube — they go deep on sexuality as a spectrum, society's toxic expectations on women, and the growing movement of heteropessimism — women realizing they might not need men at all. Add in some honest talk about relationship insecurity, imposter syndrome, and why confident women intimidate the weak… and you've got a raw episode of real talk.

Episode 2231 – Kid AG reconnects with OG GDub in this boozy, brain-melting episode that swings between flashbacks, Guinness-fueled mornings, AI-generated ass art, and a trip down memory lane with some legendary GDS personalities. We hit everything from mammoth-sized memories of Karen's legendary tits to shady Bay City shootings, Facebook drama queens, nudify websites, and why the rise of AI might leave us all jerking it to synthetic supermodels. The guys talk retro rewinds, drunk girlfriends at Coyote Ugly, and the delicate etiquette of bathroom tipping (spoiler: piss everywhere). Plus: Helmet shows, Jason Aldean cash grabs, and a brand-new GDS side project featuring Paul Harvey-style voiceovers with dicks frozen to sidewalks. It's chaos, it's clever, it's classic Deep. - Listen in. Go Deep.

Episode 2230 (RR) –  It's May 2012, and The Goin' Deep Show Episode 1051 is a romp with Kid A.G., his wife Red, Silverback, and Hat Trick. Kid's plying Red with Scotch-Ale to keep her from bed, Silverback's flexing with junkyard chains, and Hat Trick's plotting a firetruck bangfest—ladder, cab, or bust. The crew's buzzing, phones out, and Red's reminiscing about spooning Kid's mahogany morning wood. It's a rare in-studio Red sighting, and she's spilling tea on grab-ass Halloween parties and a forgotten gymnastic sex sesh Kid can't recall—handstands, swings, and all. Hat Trick's crowing about her tattooed-chick Tumblr and the Kid is bragging up hitting 300K views, while Silverback's benching chains for badass photo ops—think Scooby-Doo clangs and gay dating profile vibes.  Hat Trick drops a bombshell: she was a band camp flag-twirler, virgin ‘til 18, then went full slutty redemption with a rando camper. She and a pal once bagged an entire hockey team—goalies to wingers—proving puck bunnies run deep. Meanwhile, Kid and Silverbackff ranting about Bobby Petrino's motorcycle crash with his 25-year-old sidepiece—Arkansas said “fuck him,” and GDS cheers the class. From husky pants trauma to adult-sized Big Wheels, this episode's a nostalgia-fueled, sex-obsessed riot. Whip out the wine, whipped cream and enjoy. Listen in. Go Deep

Episode 2229 (RR) –  The Goin' Deep Show hits with Episode 800 from March 2011, and it's a glorious mess of bodily functions, beer, and bad decisions. The Kid's leading the charge with JMac, Magnum, and Dimples McDonna, and they're celebrating 800 episodes of depravity by shedding a collective 59 pounds since January—enough to lose a small child or, as they claim, G-Dub's dick. New shirts have them feeling vain as hell, but the real meat of this milestone is pure GDS chaos. The Kid kicks it off with a tale of accidental porn terrorism: firing up Xshare.com on his iPad for a beat-off sesh, only to realize the audio's blasting through the house speakers—right where his daughter's watching TV. Birds chirping? Nope, just a chick getting railed, serenading the living room. Meanwhile, Dimples drops the mic with her infamous “shitting on the way home from Meijer” saga—groceries in the trunk, tears in her eyes, and so much creamy crap it oozes out her jeans, leaving her sobbing in the shower and scrubbing car seats. J-Mac's no slouch either, tied to an Urban Dictionary gem: banging a girl, scraping shit into a snowball, and hurling it in her face. Classy. Magnum revives the Urban Dictionary bit, dubbing The Kid a suave pimp, Dimples a heart-stopping goddess, and herself a no-shit-taking badass. Then there's a surprise call to Bob, who relives J-Mac's legendary overpass shitting story—phone glowing blue as it tumbles down, shit on his hands, and a Hooters prelude for good measure. Beer flows ( mini-kegs!), potty humor reigns, and this 800th episode proves GDS hasn't matured a damn bit since day one.  LIsten in - Go Deep! Original Release Date: March 8, 2011 - Episode 800

Episode 2228 (RR) – Step into the time machine, folks—it's March 2014, and The Goin' Deep Show Episode 2228 (retro rewinding Episode 1219) is a booze-soaked, Bible-thumping, porn-obsessed riot. Kid A.G.'s pounding Sierra Nevada IPA, Don Tang's on Kroger Cola life support, Wally's phoning in from the mitten's tip, and G-Dub's mixing sweet tea vodka with Honey Jack like a redneck mixologist. They're tearing into a Creationist Museum clown blowing $73 million on a 500-foot ark—Kid's cackling at vegetarian lions, Wally's got Noah drunk and balls-out, and the whole crew's pitching an animated Anti-Bible series for kids. Blasphemy's the appetizer here. The main course? A reality show called Torture—starve Biggest Loser dropouts in grocery stores, strand AA vets in bars, and tempt newlyweds with lingerie models, all for betting pools on who cracks. But the dessert steals the show: Kid's stumbled onto a porn flick where a chick collects her roommate's jizz to freeze into an ice dildo, then slaps Brandi Love with it in a titty-smacking, faux-blowjob frenzy. The gang's jaws drop—part genius, part “what the fuck?” Toss in some Hillary Clinton hate (vagina = disqualified), spank bank droughts, and a “beer on boobies” Tumblr shoutout, and you've got GDS at its filthy, unhinged peak. Praise the lord and pass the lube. Listen in. Go Deep!  Original Release Date: March 11, 2014 - Episode 1219

Kid A.G. hauls back the one and only Hat Trick, to ram a lesson down your stupid throats on how it's fucking done. This weathered podcast vet plops her ass down for a balls-deep hour-long GDS to rant about the usual filth: banging like rabid dogs, blowing like a damn hurricane, and more twisted shit. She's still hellbent on fucking loud on a firetruck, plus she's mouthing off about threesomes, bootycalls, road head, jacking off, squirting, pity fucks for the pathetic, backup dick on call, flowers from the saps, and social media crap. We even toss in a Hottie of the Week. This hour-long episode, recorded March 12, 2025, is a must-listen. Go Deep!

Julie Weintraub of GDS joined TKras on The Drive with a special offer at The Gold & Diamond Source for Valentine's Day!

Kid A.G. is back in the saddle, and he's not alone! He's joined by the freshly minted Red Eye, and they've brought along a new mischief-maker, Blood Siren. They plunge right into the juicy bits, exploring how Siren stumbled upon her latest, let's say, "unconventional" hobby, giving the GDS a run for its money in the kink department. Feeling a bit left behind in the kink-o-meter, Kid decides it's time to step up his game, especially after seeing how our recent guests have been swinging from the chandeliers.  Red Eye, meanwhile, dishes out the tea on how she's been playing hard to get with the wang, but hey, who can resist a little snootchy-snatch now and then? The trio then does the "cum-count" - yep, you heard that right - and chats about "shark week," where the ladies drop the bomb that boys can squirt post-blast, leaving everyone in stitches. Kid takes a nostalgic trip down memory lane, recounting the time his high school sweetheart turned prom night into a scene from "Carrie" with his Joker grin. Spoiler: it didn't ignite his passion for blood play. He also shares his latest self-cock-blocking technique, involving a new screen protector. Let's just say, morning wood has never been so tech-savvy. Blood Siren stirs the pot by bringing up wet dreams, which naturally leads to a chat about blue balls and what she calls a "throbbing kitty." They delve into how to navigate those kinky conversations with your partner without scaring them off. And Red Eye? She's been pushing boundaries so far, you'll need to tune in for the full, uncensored scoop on her adventures in kinkland.  So, grab your popcorn, or whatever you grab when you're about to hear some wild tales, and tune in for a show that's as entertaining as it is eyebrow-raising! Listen in. Go Deep! Recorded: January 21, 2025 On Mic: Kid A.G., Red Eye II, Blood Siren

Time for the shitstorm called The Goin' Deep Show.   Kid and El Pres start off like they're gonna talk about something legit, maybe AI or some financial scam, but then, BAM! They're phone calling someone on their birthday.  AI Wishes: They want an AI that's not just smart but has the balls to tell it like it is, one that can roast you harder than a marshmallow at a bonfire. "Hey AI, make me sound like Sinatra, but with more fuck you!" That's their vibe. But here's the kicker, they're paranoid this AI might get too big for its britches, start thinking it's better than us, like some robotic version of a know-it-all, but without the charm. The nostalgia trip: The hosts reminiscing about the good old days when they could just shoot the shit, talk about anything, from porn to porn stars, without anyone getting their panties in a twist. But now, they're all sentimental, getting soft in their old age.  Getting Juicy: They start talking about women, titties, and strip clubs like it's the weather forecast. "Oh, the titties used to fly when I was married!"  So, what's the moral of this episode? Life's too short for filters. Even for your stupid ugly faces.  The GDS keeps it raw, just like your old days... well, just like it should be. They want their AI with a side of asshole, their conversations with a dash of debauchery, and their show to be a ride through the crazy, unfiltered side of life. And you know what? I'm here for it. Because if you can't laugh at the absurdity of life, what can you laugh at?

In episode 164 Steph is co-hosting again with Lindsay Taylor of Travel Leaders 365. Have a look at the questions below that they cover in this rich and informative edition of the Friday 15! 1. Hi Steph. I worked as a Travel Manager at my previous company, however, it was a created position and I used a combination of Concur, Expedia, Hotels.com, National Car rental and all the other sites. I loved this position but it all went away during Covid. Now, I'd like to get back into it but everything I'm interested in requires some Sabre experience. I know it's easy and I know I could do it but do you think it's worth taking the 60 hour course with The Travel Institute? Is there a better place to obtain this training? It could add a few lines on my resume and I'm great with self-study. $149 doesn't seem high for getting some experience. What are your thoughts? Thanks for your time! :) —Anonymous 2. Hi Steph. I have a diploma from Penn Foster and when I look at the CTA, I feel like I've already done all of the same lessons. Is it better to have one of these certifications over the diploma I've already received? Are these just better recognized and received by people in the industry and clients? It seems like these have a more elevated status over my diploma. Is that the case? —Anonymous 3. I refunded a non refundable ticket by accident. The agency paid it back but now I'm on the hook for over $6000. The airline does not reverse the transaction so the traveler has a credit. Have you ever worked with this? I would like to find out how this is even legal? ---Anonymous RESOURCES: https://hostagencyreviews.com/blog/what-is-gds (In-depth information on what the GDS, global distribution system, is and which travel advisors use it.) https://www.thetravelinstitute.com/product/sabre-personal-trainer/ (Travel Institute's program) https://hostagencyreviews.com/blog/become-corporate-travel-agent (Tips on how to become a corporate travel agent.) https://hostagencyreviews.com/travelagentchatter/molly-williams-the-optimists-travel (TAC episode with Molly Williams. https://hostagencyreviews.com/blog/travel-agent-certification (What travel agent certification is and isn't.

In episode 163 Steph is co-hosting with Lindsay Taylor of Travel Leaders 365, If you have a question for Steph and her co-hosts, please submit it here for a future episode: https://hostagencyreviews.com/friday15 ! 1. I work as an independent contractor so I already have an LLC for non travel related business. I was wondering if I could just add a "second" DBA and use the same LLC to start the travel business but continue to work on my full time job as another name. So basically 2 DBAs under one LLC? I live in Florida. Thanks! —Anonymous 2. Hello, so I live in the US and want to help people in Guyana, South America purchase flights to travel to and from the US and charge a small fee. I want to use sites like Priceline and Expedia and Booking to purchase the flights. Sort of an off the books business. Is this possible? —Mike S. 3. Hi, I'm curious about startup/yearly/monthly fees. I keep reading that it's a red flag if a travel host charges. In your opinion and experience, what do you want to look for when searching for a host? Thanks! –Jamie K.

In episode 162 Steph Lee is joined by Chad Burt of Outside Agents. We've got some great questions from you all. Speaking of – if you have a question for Steph and her co-hosts, please submit it here for a future episode: https://hostagencyreviews.com/friday15 ! 1. Do the airlines still give commissions on flights? If not, what is the benefit of an $2300 ARC #? —Anonymous 2. Hello! I have a quick question about workflows.

In episode 160 Steph is co-hosting with April Swales of Uniglobe! Please join us as this dynamic duo tackles a couple of important questions! 1. I was wondering if I could pick your brain a little about the current status of the industry, the possibilities of finding someone interested in buying an agency, and what makes a travel agency attractive for a potential buyer. My mother isn't ready to stop working as an agent and loves helping her clients but I could see it being a good exit strategy for her in the near future. —Nathan 2. I went to an actual school in 1988 on the Sabre system. Do you know if there are courses that might bring me up to speed & how much they cost? I spoke with IATAN & ARC today. It's not as expensive as I thought it'd be but I'd still like to start off maybe working with a national agency for a while first.

In episode 149 Steph co-hosts with April Swales of Uniglobe. Here are the questions they'll cover. Got some fun ones this week!  1. How do HAR courses differ from an IATA course or something offered through a host agency? –Anonymous 2. Hello HAR and team! I have a question about commissions. For travel agents based in Europe, as far as I know most airlines do not pay any commission. But it seems to me that this is not the case for TAs based elsewhere. I am asking this because I just got my IATA accreditation, and my business is mostly flight consulting. But I do this for clients based worldwide. 3. Most travel agents where I am from have to add a ticketing fee to their customers, and if they sell flight only then their only revenue will be that fee. In the end, if I don't get any commission from airlines, what is my benefit in using a GDS?
