Levin Papantonio attorney Ned McWilliams joins Rick Outzen on We Don't Color on the Dog to break down the $17+ billion, 47-state settlement with Meta — and why the money is the least interesting part. McWilliams explains why the payout is basically "a day's pay" for Facebook and Instagram's parent company, and why the real victory is in new restrictions on how kids use the platform. #MetaSettlement #ScreenTime #TechNews #Pensacola #Podcast

Rick Outzen sits down with Katy Morgan, team captain of Pensacola Yacht Club's Knost-winning women's sailing team, to break down the roster of longtime friends and former competitors turned teammates — including three Naval and Coast Guard Academy grads — and how they blended competitive backgrounds around a simple goal: making sailing fun again. Morgan walks through how the GYA circuit works, the different boat classes, what it took to stay strong through all nine races at Pas Christian, and how families can get kids started in junior sailing at PYC. #PensacolaYachtClub #SailingChampions #KnostRegatta #GulfYachtingAssociation #PensacolaBay #FriendsOfNavySailing #NASPensacola #WomensSailing #Foiling #PensacolaNews #RicksBlogLive #PNSFL #SailingCommunity #NavalAviation #PYC
