Host Steve Turk welcomes Sean McCarron, General Manager of Conrad Orlando at Evermore, to discuss Sean's path through luxury hospitality and what it takes to lead and open award-winning resorts. Sean shares how he entered hospitality through a Ritz-Carlton management trainee program at Pentagon City (placed as a bartender), discovered hotel school in Switzerland after soul-searching in college, and committed his career to luxury service. He explains his passion for food and beverage, his moves across cities and cultures, and his transition from Ritz-Carlton to Four Seasons via a recruited lateral move that led to 16 years with Four Seasons, multiple hotel openings, and progression into hotel management. Sean describes opening Four Seasons Baltimore as his first hotel manager role and later moving to Las Vegas, then leaving Four Seasons to become GM of Waldorf Astoria Orlando with Hilton, where he focused on training teams in luxury, building a people culture, improving service and guest loyalty, and achieving Forbes Four Star for the resort. He details joining Conrad Orlando nearly 19 months pre-opening as the first employee, leading the opening within the broader Evermore Orlando Resort featuring a 17-million-gallon, eight-acre freshwater lagoon, beach areas, vacation rentals, golf courses, and a spa, and emphasizes leadership through daily walkthroughs, balanced meetings, guest and team engagement, and the principle of “inspect what you expect.” Sean discusses Hilton's focus on technology and AI to make team members' jobs easier and free up time for guest relationships, how the resort differentiates itself as a destination beyond theme parks, and recent recognitions including AAA Five Diamond (2025), Forbes Four Star for the hotel and resort, Forbes Four Star for the spa, and a Top 20 ranking in Spas of America's Top 100 for the second year in a row. He closes with career advice: excel in your current role while acting for the job you want, continually ask what could be done differently or better, and never forget to give back through mentoring and development.00:00 Welcome to The Hospitality Mentor Podcast00:33 Sponsor Break: Lodgify All-in-One for Hospitality01:38 Meet Sean McCarran, GM of Conrad Orlando01:56 First Hospitality Job: Ritz-Carlton Trainee to Bartender02:27 Finding Hospitality: Hotel School in Switzerland & Love for Luxury04:16 Why Food & Beverage: A Lifelong Passion for Cuisine05:07 Moving Cities & Building a Luxury Career (Ritz-Carlton Years)06:15 Switching Brands: Recruited to Four Seasons + 16-Year Run07:55 From F&B to Hotel Leadership: Mentors, Openings & Becoming a GM12:21 Vegas Chapter: Hospitality Epicenter & Celebrity Chef Scene14:40 Leaving Four Seasons: Waldorf Astoria Orlando GM & Hilton Luxury18:45 Waldorf Highlights: Culture, Team Growth & Forbes 4-Star Win20:28 Building Conrad Orlando: Pre-Opening, Evermore Lagoon & Mega-Resort Vision24:55 Leadership Playbook: ‘Inspect What You Expect' + Daily Walks & Meetings27:56 Tech, AI & the Future of Hospitality Teams30:17 Standing Out in Orlando: Owning the ‘Off Day' as a Destination Resort32:41 Big Accolades: AAA Five Diamond + Forbes Four Star (Hotel & Spa)35:21 What's Next: Maturing the Resort & Raising the Bar37:04 Advice to Young Sean: Act for the Job You Want & Keep Giving Back39:34 Wrap-Up, Share the Episode + Sponsor: Biscayne Coffee

We are kicking off Day 3 on radio row with the one and only BRADY QUINN (Fox Sports) Which Seahawks storyline is the most impressive? John Schneider taking two completely different teams to the Super Bowl, Mike MacDonald doing it in his second year or Sam Darnold's journey to success? How does Brady view this game going compared to the 2013 Seahawks offensively? Is this team more set up for a run than the previous Super Bowl teams and how do the defenses compare? What does Brady see in this Mike MacDonald defense? :30- We are flying by the seat of our pants this morning! We have discovered that things are darker and sadder for the staff left behind in Seattle than we could have ever imagined… Ashley watched the Pro Bowl last night. :45- We revisit the conversation about the 2015 team vs this team with a little clarification. Team construction and a promising future are key elements to both this team and the 2013 team, but there are some differences.

It's an off day for the Edmonton Oilers, but there's still plenty to dig into on Oilersnation Everyday as Tyler and Liam get you set for tomorrow night's matchup against the San Jose Sharks. With no game on the schedule, the boys turn their attention to the rumour mill and what could be brewing around the NHL as the trade deadline continues to creep closer.The show kicks off with a deeper dive into one intriguing name in Toronto: Bobby McMann. Tyler and Liam break down McMann's profile, why he could make sense as a middle-six addition in Edmonton, and what it might realistically take to pry a young, controllable player like that out of the Maple Leafs organization.Former NHL video analyst Steve Peters joins the show to discuss one of the more fascinating Oilers storylines this season: Leon Draisaitl's ability to elevate “bottom-six” style players when they play alongside him, compared to Connor McDavid's tendency to thrive more with elite talent. It's a thoughtful conversation about deployment, fit, and how Edmonton can best maximize its depth.After that, the boys run through What's Trending, hitting on the latest news and storylines surrounding the Oilers as they prepare for their next stretch of games. To close out the show, David Schlemko stops by to give his big-picture thoughts on Edmonton's season so far, the unique challenge of carrying three goaltenders on the roster, and what he believes the Oilers must prioritize when it comes to additions at the trade deadline.The episode wraps up with the daily betting picks for the bet365 betting challenge.Website: https://oilersnation.com/https://twitter.com/OilersNation/ https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/ https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/https://www.instagram.com/oilersnationdotcomhttps://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!

Mannys Slump Continues. Padres Fall to 2 GB In The NL West.

Hour 3: Should the focus of the Yankees manager be on, you know, the Yankees ahead of these 12 games

We're one month away from more Milwaukee playoff baseball. The Brewers have held their own during this long stretch without an off day, including an excellent series in Toronto, but a couple sloppy losses made it an uneven week. Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss the bullpen's fatigue, particularly without injured closer Trevor Megill. How big of a loss is he? When Rhys Hoskins comes back, what happens with a struggling Andrew Vaughn? Another check in with the rotation after a tough outing from Brandon Woodruff, but Quinn Priester and Freddy Peralta continue to be nails, Jacob Misiorowski bounces back and ... Erick Fedde is here now? In Three Up Three Down (30:00), they the Andruw Monasterio experience, Jackson Chourio's surging return and thoughts on a backup catcher. In Remembrew When (55:30), JR looks back at a season opener, when something unrelated to the Brewers happened that also happened this week. And in Curt Blanche (1:03:00), Curt discovers the previously unknown joy of a prominent aspect in traditional society. Then, JR sits down with Brewers veteran reliever Shelby Miller (1:11:15), discussing his first tenure with the Brewers (when he didn't pitch in the big leagues), his near no-hitter and what's worked so well this year. Music intro from bensound.com. Musical cues (in order): "I Got What You Want" (Extended Version) by Gloria Tells, "Arriving at Dusk" by American Legion and "Screaming Fool" by Andreas Dahlback, all from www.epidemicsound.com.

The Mariners conclude a really tough road trip by getting swept by the Phillies, so Brock and Salk assess what the level of concern should be. They then list out some potential off day roster moves that the Mariners could make. For Blue 88, Brock dives in on the concept of new age football in Klint Kubiak's system, why Green Bay is a perfect preseason opponent and why Trey Hendrickson could be a Raider.
