Join us as we huddle up on football, community fun, and why staying involved keeps us connected.

In this episode, we kick things off (literally) with the NFL season opener madness and all the hype around football season. We wrap up Burger Week with our final thoughts (and probably a few extra pounds), and look ahead at some upcoming local events you won’t want to miss. Plus, we celebrate USF taking down UF (Go Bulls!) and the exciting comeback of Friendly’s Tavern.

We also confess… we gave ourselves a Labor Day bye week (because hey, even podcasters need a day off). But don’t worry—we’re back, refreshed, and ready to bring the salty energy straight from the beach to your ears.

In this episode of the Real Salty Podcast, we dive into the vibrant local community events and the significant changes shaping our neighborhoods. From the bustling Burger Week that brought together local eateries in a delicious competition, to the exciting updates on the reopening of the VFW Lodge post in John's Pass, we cover it all. We also discuss the ongoing urban revitalization efforts in St. Petersburg and the community's response to recent political decisions. Join us as we explore how these events and changes are impacting our community and what they mean for the future. Tune in for an engaging discussion filled with insights and local flavor!

Caitlin & Stephanie are back with another salty mix of Florida life and laughs. This week, it’s all about big changes and big events—from sending the boys off to college (cue the tissues) to the buzz of Village Friday and the delicious chaos of Burger Week. We’ll take you behind the scenes of Casino Night fun and give you a sneak peek at the upcoming golf tournament. Join us for stories, laughs, and all the reasons we love (and sometimes side-eye) life in paradise.
