In this episode, I’ve got some big news to share: Slick Talk: The Hospitality Podcast, Good Morning Hospitality, and Suite Success by Katie Cline have officially been acquired by Skift — the leading voice in global travel and hospitality media.

This is a full-circle moment for me, and I couldn’t be more excited to join the Skift team as their new Director of Video and Audio Strategy. I’ll be overseeing a growing slate of shows, video content, and creative across the platform as we level up what hospitality media can be.

Now, with all this change comes a little shift in scheduling: Slick Talk will be hitting pause for a bit while we gear up for Skift Global Forum this September in NYC. The show will return later this October. In the meantime, Good Morning Hospitality and Suite Success will keep going strong, publishing weekly as usual.

If you haven’t already, now’s a great time to dive into Skift’s other podcasts too — there’s a ton of smart, thoughtful content happening across the network that I think you’ll get a lot out of.

Most importantly, I just want to say thank you. For seven years, you’ve listened, shared, and supported this journey. This next chapter is only possible because of that. And I’m beyond grateful.

More soon — and I’ll catch you on the next episode.
