On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Jennifer Adams, Director of Tourism, and Alex Fogg, Natural Resources Chief, to find out how the destination's innovative Coastal and Natural Resources team is setting Destin Fort Walton Beach apart, transforming environmental challenges into tourism opportunities. You'll hear how an invasive species, the lionfish, became both a tourism driver and an annual event, and how the region has evolved into a family destination through free outdoor adventure programs for kids and teens. Jennifer and Alex also share the inside story of the creation of what will be the world's largest artificial reef, using the repurposed SS United States ocean liner, positioning the area as an international diving hotspot. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why Destin Fort Walton Beach has established a Coastal and Natural Resources team How a challenge with the invasive lionfish species became a key tourism driver for the region How the destination's free Little Adventures program engages kids and families with hands-on outdoor experiences How the team created and rapidly expanded a program offering free outdoor classes, resulting in 700 sessions and serving over 4,000 kids in a year Why the artificial reef project, featuring the SS United States ocean liner, will make the area an internationally recognized dive destination Collaborations and strategic partnerships that have fueled product development and positioned Destin Fort Walton Beach for year-round tourism Lessons Jennifer and Alex have learned about turning ecological challenges into memorable and marketable visitor experiences Expanding Beyond Traditional Tourism Marketing Historically recognized for its crystal-clear waters and white sand beaches, Destin Fort Walton Beach has long attracted vacationers seeking a quintessential Florida getaway. But as the tourism market grew more competitive, especially against all-inclusive options like cruise vacations, Jennifer Adams realized something had to change. This insight spurred the creation of a coastal and natural resources team, making their tourism office one of the few in the U.S. with in-house marine and forestry biologists, aimed at protecting and enhancing the very environment that draws visitors. Free Outdoor Classes Fueling Family Connection One of the standout programs redefining the visitor experience is the Little Adventures initiative. Recognizing statistics that highlight children's lack of outdoor engagement, Jennifer and her team built a brand promise: "get kids outside on the water to give their adventure side room to grow". Through this program, local experts, including fishing guides, dive instructors, and even astronomers, offer free hands-on classes to vacationing families. What began with 70 sessions in 2021 exploded to over 700 in a single season, reaching more than 4,000 kids. This investment brought significant returns for the community, circulating an estimated $4 million back into the local economy, while giving families a broader, authentic experience that's hard to replicate elsewhere. Partnership, Collaboration, and Global Reach Collaboration is foundational to every initiative. Regionally, Destin Fort Walton Beach works closely with seven other Florida Panhandle counties via the Northwest Florida Tourism Council, pooling resources for international marketing and product development. Partners like Yamaha and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute have also joined artificial reef efforts, while the "Ask a Scout" feature on the destination's website connects incoming families with local moms to provide real, trusted advice. "We all work collectively," Jennifer emphasizes, ensuring that local character, environmental strength, and visitor experiences remain connected. Resources: Website: https://www.destinfwb.com/

Tra i due ufficiali Aprilia ora c'è un solo punto in classifica: da Barcellona, domenica prossima, scatta il duello diretto tra Bezzecchi e Martin. Sarà gestibile da Rivola? Jorge ha già dimostrato di essere un campione, ora tocca a Marco. Il nostro Ing sulla tecnica: la RS-GP ha superato la Desmosedici ed è evidente, ma a Borgo Panigale non si arrenderanno facilmente. Come sta e quando rientrerà Marquez? E Bagnaia (che finalmente scatta dalla pole ma fatica nelle due partenze) è ritrovato? E quale problema ha avuto in gara? Da Le Mans escono bene la KTM con Acosta e Quartararo con una Yamaha in recupero sulla Honda, benino Di Giannantonio e Bastianini, male Morbidelli e Alex Marquez che stenta dopo avere appena trionfato a Jerez. Nelle altre classi dominio di Quiles in Moto3, dove Matteo Bertelle risorge dalla terribile stagione ‘25 con un ottimo terzo posto sul bagnato. In Moto2 Guevara su Gonzales: sono loro i mattatori della classe media, sesto Vietti. C'è anche il mercato: tra i tanti botti, finora inesplosi, ora si parla di Diggia alla KTM e Davide Brivio in Honda… Non perdete l'appuntamento di questa sera alle 18, sul sito e sul canale YT di Moto.it.

Everybody—everybody—has an opinion on Harley-Davidson. The company, who's stock, not so many years ago, was a safer bet than gold, has fallen upon challenging times. This from a company—according to analyst Michael Uhlarik—that in its heyday turned a profit of nearly 30 percent on each motorcycle sold, when the industry average is nearer the mid-single digits. In the fat years, Harley-Davidson was indeed a license to print money. But no more. Past Harley CEO's have tried seemingly everything the right the ship. There's been the re-wire, the hardwire and the cut-the-wire-in-two. As much fun as speculating on the future of Harley is, this week on the show we speak to someone with skin in the game. A Harley Dealer. George Gatto owns Three Rivers Harley-Davidson near Pittsburgh. Gatto also runs Gatto Cycle, a Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, CF Moto and Royal Enfield dealership. On top of all this, Gotto chairs the National Powersports Dealers Association Harley-Davidson dealer council. He's a busy man. With a bad back. But he made time for us—and we're chuffed.

India's richest buyers still choose SIPs over Mercedes. Why? When a ₹1 Cr car loses to a ₹10k SIP, you're not fighting competitors, you're fighting mindset. In this episode, Shantanu sits down with Santosh Iyer (MD & CEO, Mercedes-Benz India Pvt. Ltd.) for a no-filter conversation on why India's luxury car market is still tiny, what really drives high-ticket purchases, and how culture, family hierarchy, and risk appetite shape consumption in this country. From selling weighing machines to building one of India's most premium auto brands, Santosh's journey is anything but conventional. He shares how early failures in Nepal, turning around Yamaha, and working across global companies shaped his belief in one core idea: trust first, everything else later. Key takeaways from the episode: 1. Why Mercedes competes with SIPs, not just BMW & Audi 2. Why a ₹1 Cr car still takes 45 days of family decision-making 3. What stops India's luxury market from scaling despite rising incomes 4. How D2C changed car buying and killed the “discount mindset” 5. What EVs, AI, and the next decade of mobility will actually look like. If you're building a premium brand, selling high-ticket products, or trying to understand Indian consumers beyond surface-level data, this episode will completely change how you think about scale in India.

Ayer se publicó en redes el vídeo del año. Un predicador evangélico, en el Metro de Madrid, repite “Dios te ama, yo te amo”, y un señor mayor con pantalones cortos y la camisa por dentro, abrumado por la verborrea del pastor, responde: pues si me amas, no me molestes. Signo de los tiempos: en Madrid ha brotado medio millar de templos evangélicos en cinco años. Dábamos por hecho que la secularización era un hecho seguro, como atestiguaban los filósofos Habermas y Berger, este último, por cierto, inventor de ese término, secularización; y ahora nos encontramos a nuestros vecinos cantando el kumbayá en un bajo de extrarradio, de Nou Barris, de Carabanchel, nte un pastor en vaqueros que toca el teclado Yamaha, en el mismo bajo donde antes había un taller o una mercería. Ignoro si vuelve Dios, aunque dice San Pablo que llega como un ladrón en la noche, y no como un catequista en hora punta: lo que está claro es que vuelve Dani Alves, y reconvertido en predicador, entonando loas al Altísimo con los brazos en alto, como cuando celebraba un gol. Quizá el Juicio Final no llegue entre trompetas y clarines, sino en un bajo con gotelé. Pero hasta entonces sigamos el mandamiento castizo del señor de los pantalones cortos: si me amas, no me molestes.Alsina: en conclusión…Si de amar al prójimo se trata, no le demos la tabarra, que bastante penitencia es ir en el metro a las 7 y media.

Today, we're putting The Tonearm's needle on composer and chief conductor of the Danish Radio Big Band, Miho Hazama.Miho grew up inside the Yamaha music education system in her native Japan. She moved to New York to study jazz composition at the Manhattan School of Music under Jim McNeely and has spent her career as one of the most distinctive voices in large-ensemble writing. Her work includes her own chamber jazz group m_unit, conducting posts with the Metropole Orkest and the Norwegian Radio Orchestra, and a BBC Proms debut last year.This week, she released Frames, her fourth album on Edition Records with the Danish Radio Big Band. The album draws on the musical language of the conductors who led that band across its decades of existence, including McNeely, who passed away last year.

Ken Roczen owned Cleveland for Monster Energy AMA Supercross, with multiple events on Friday that didn't distract him from the racing task at hand. In fact, they probably enhanced it.

Jason Weigandt was actually with Ken at the Cleveland events on Friday and called the race for the fans on Saturday, and they went wild for the 94. Here's why.
