Here are excerpts from his most recent Beach Brief newsletters! Our partners at Visit St. Pete Clearwater are hosting multiple partner summits around Pinellas to share key tourism data, highlight VSPC priorities and opportunities for you to partner with our CVB throughout the year. One will be held January 13 at the Beach Theater on St. Pete Beach. Learn more and rsvp HERE Happy to hear that work is finally starting on the new Emergency Medical Services Building on North Redington Beach. They have had to deal with multiple delays beyond the storms to get this project underway. North Redington Beach, Redington Beach and Redington Shores will see improved response time and service with the facility. More about this facility and other NRB news can be found HERE Congratulations to Madeira Beach Interim Manager Clint Belk for hosting a well attended community gathering last weekend to discuss the best way forward on a newly acquired city piece of land. Dozens came together to talk about what's the best use for the $18 Million parcel at 150th avenue on the waterway. Bringing the community together early on and building consensus is a great way to go to ensure a successful completion. You can read more HERE We were disappointed to see that the city of Treasure Island rejected the ordinance which would have allowed the Thunderbird Redevelopment to move forward. Hopefully the community and city leadership can come together to decide the next step. We must allow our property owners, residential and commercial, to build back responsibly. Kicking the can down the road just delays our recovery. Several of our cities will be holding March elections. Every chamber has different policies on the role of the chamber during campaign season. I can tell you that while our chamber will never hesitate to speak up on policies or issues of importance to our members, we do not endorse candidates in contested races. We are grateful for those who offer themselves in service and want to partner with whoever is in office to move our communities forward.

James Kimmel Jr. Explains the Roots of Revenge Addiction and How to Rise Above ItThe Science of Revenge reveals a truth most of us never learned. Our brains are wired to crave payback. What feels like anger, justice, or righteous indignation is often something deeper. A biological loop that pulls us toward retaliation even when we know it will not make us whole. In this episode, host John R. Miles talks with Yale psychiatry professor and author James Kimmel Jr. about how revenge addiction forms in the brain, why it drives so much of modern conflict, and how forgiveness neuroscience can interrupt the cycle. Through his personal story, his research, and the tools he has created, James shows us how to break free from the cravings that keep us stuck in pain.Explore More: The Ignited Life Newsletter If today’s episode sparked something in you, you’ll love The Ignited Life—our free Substack newsletter created to fuel your growth between episodes.

In this episode, Author and Memoir Coach Kerry Kriseman trades teaching for telling, as she reads from her memoir, Accidental First Lady. Ten years after a meaningful visit to the White House, Kriseman still recalls the magic of being less than a hundred feet from President Barack Obama, as he and First Lady Michelle Obama shared good cheer with guests at the White House Holiday Party. Once of 20 they hosted that year, the Kriseman reminisces about one of the most memorable evenings of her 22 years as a political spouse.

You follow the routine. You track the habits. You optimize everything… and yet you still don’t feel well. In this kickoff episode of the “Reclaiming Wellness” series, John R. Miles names the elephant in the room: the wellness gap. Why are so many people doing the right things—yet still feeling anxious, exhausted, or misaligned? John shares the deeper truth behind this quiet crisis and outlines a bold new framework for healing from the inside out: Fuel, Feel, Fulfill, and Flow. This is not a checklist. It’s not another lifestyle plan.

Nicole Vogler, Editor-In-Chief of Eckerd College Triton News, shares insight into dating trends. Cuffing season is a social phenomenon during the colder fall and winter months (roughly October to March) when single people seek temporary romantic partners to cuddle with, attend holidays with, and generally combat loneliness, often "handcuffing" themselves to someone just for the season, with the relationship likely ending when warmer weather arrives. It's driven by biology (less sunlight affecting mood) and environment (fewer outdoor activities, holiday pressure).#tritonnews #eckerdcollege #nicolevogler #datingtrends #cuffingseason #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #cityofstpete #dtsp #downtownstpete

In this episode of Jewels with Jules, host Julia Warren takes us to the Wild Space Gallery in the Warehouse Arts District for a visit with Gallery Director Leslie Elsasser, Curator Noel Smith and Artist Jeff Ripple about his new exhibit "Enduring Light."👉The Florida Wildlife Corridor Foundation founded Wild Space Gallery to promote awareness of Florida conservation issues by curating thought-provoking exhibitions that engage, challenge and inspire collaborative ideas that protect Florida's wild places. 👉Through January 10, 2026, there are two concurrent exhibits that surround you with gorgeous Florida wildlife photos and paintings of our beautiful sunsets and landscapes. You Are Here is a travelling show created by the Florida Wildlife Corridor Foundation. The exhibit takes viewers on a journey across the 18-million-acre connected landscape, from the Everglades to the Alabama/Georgia state lines, through photography, maps, and informational panels. Enduring Light showcases artist Jeff Ripple and is curated by Noel Smith. The exhibit presents Florida landscape paintings inspired by the Hudson River Valley School. Ripple is a Florida artist whose studio-based works are derived from on-site air-plein studies, sketches, and photographs. His paintings focus on panoramas of sky, light, and water, and achieve a kind of poetic realism that invites contemplation of our country's historical relationship to its natural environment.

On this special episode of Sunshine Sisters, host Karen Carmichael welcomes Cher Harris and Liz Russell, the co-founders of Autism Inspired Academy (AIA)—a school that has transformed from a tiny summer camp into a thriving educational sanctuary for students on the autism spectrum. What began with just eight students in 2017 has grown into a full K–12 program serving more than 130 young people today.Cher, a longtime public-school teacher in an autism self-contained classroom, always dreamed of opening her own school. But without guidance or a clear roadmap, that dream felt far out of reach—until the day she met Liz. In their very first conversation, Liz asked her what she truly wanted to do with her life. When Cher said she hoped to open a school someday, Liz responded with a simple but life-changing idea: “What if we start with a camp?”That moment marked the beginning of Autism Inspired Academy.Liz’s motivation came from two powerful places. As a parent of a child on the spectrum, she understood firsthand the challenges families faced in finding suitable educational placements. For years, parents in her community shared heartbreaking stories and asked her for guidance. She quietly promised herself that if the opportunity ever came, she would help create something better. When she and her husband, Philip—AIA’s third co-founder—agreed it was the right time for her to step away from corporate life, she committed fully to making the school a reality.Their partnership worked because their strengths were complementary. Cher brought deep knowledge of education, behavior strategies, and classroom leadership. Liz brought business experience, sales confidence, and an understanding of finance, pitching, and legal frameworks. Together, they built the foundation for AIA’s philosophy: confidence, character, and connection.One of the most pivotal moments in the school’s early development came when they were selected for the Drexel Fund’s highly competitive Founders Program (https://www.drexelfund.org). The program provided a stipend, leadership training, and resources, allowing Cher to leave her public-school job and work full-time on AIA. It was the moment the dream became tangible.But growth was not without challenges—especially securing a proper facility with the right zoning. After months of searching, the perfect building finally came through. That milestone marked the school’s true beginning.When COVID-19 hit, AIA was still in its pre-opening year, temporarily operating out of a borrowed space in Tampa. Despite the uncertainty, Cher and Liz pivoted quickly, moving to virtual sessions, delivering weekly learning kits to families, and hosting all-student Zoom gatherings to maintain connection and community. The culture that formed during those early, intimate months—one built on respect, teamwork, and genuine care—has remained intact even as the school has grown to 46 staff members and 135 students.At the heart of AIA’s curriculum is a strong emphasis on behavior, character development, and social communication. The school uses the Zones of Regulation program (https://zonesofregulation.com), teaching it across all grade levels to help students develop self-awareness and emotional regulation. Academic lessons pause for teachable moments when social or behavioral skills can be reinforced—because at AIA, those are viewed not as secondary skills, but as essentials for life.Even as the organization expands, the founders remain committed to a deeply student-centered philosophy. Their leadership approach is based on presence: they walk classrooms daily, check in frequently with teachers, observe instruction, and uphold the culture through consistent, respectful communication. Staff quickly learn that feedback, collaboration, and shared purpose are core to the AIA way.Looking to the future, Cher and Liz envision a full K–12 program with a robust transition pathway for young adults. They are expanding their micro-enterprises, including Inspired Farming and the Shark Bikes Café, and building stronger partnerships with local businesses to create inclusive vocational opportunities. Their goal is to prepare students not just to feel safe, but to truly thrive—academically, socially, and ultimately within the larger community.AIA aims to be a sanctuary for families: a place to learn, plan, and feel supported through every stage of their child’s growth. Beyond academics, the founders see themselves as advocates and guides, helping families navigate the complex journey from childhood to adulthood, long before age 22 approaches.Families, donors, and community partners all have a place in AIA’s mission. Parents are encouraged to become part of the school’s community; donors are invited to stay connected and see the impact of their support; and local businesses are welcomed into partnerships that open doors for students to learn and work in inclusive environments.Visit Autism Inspired Academy📍11225 US Highway 19 North, Clearwater, FL �

In this episode of Pet Tips, Eckerd College's Maddie Merrick reports on the importance of an annual vet visit and some tips and issues for dental health and senior pets. Dental health is crucial for senior pets, requiring more frequent vet checkups (every 6 months) and diligent home care like brushing, dental chews, and special diets to combat common issues like periodontal disease, tooth decay, and oral tumors. Watch for bad breath, difficulty eating, or pawing at the mouth, and use veterinarian-approved products (VOHC) to prevent pain and maintain overall health.#pettips #seniorpets #dentalhealthtips #vetcare #maddiemerrick #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #cityofstpete #dtsp #downtownstpete

In this episode of HISTORICALLY ST. PETE, St. Petersburg Museum of History executive director Rui Farias introduces an upcoming preview of a new exhibit on tourism. Says Farias: "The museum has been sharing the stories of the Sunshine City for about 103 years, almost 104 years now actually. We have been working on a new exhibit that will debut at the end of January, presented by Bay First Bank. The exhibit is called Wish You Were Here. It's the story of tourism here in St. Petersburg and the state of Florida as well. One of the main resources for research that I've used for this exhibit is a book called "Warm Wishes from Sunny St. Petersburg," written by the museum's curator and historian Nevin Sitler. Both the book and this exhibit detail the selling of the Sunshine City. How did we go from a small fishing and farming village to one of the hottest tourist destinations in the world? Imagination and creativity, lots of it. And of course, the brains and courage of a few of our early pioneers who saw the potential of Saint Pete."🦩BACKGROUND By the 1910s, St. Petersburg was not only attracting visitors, it was organizing them into a social force that shaped the growing city. State and city societies brought together winter residents who shared the same hometowns, creating familiar networks far from home. Groups like the Illinois Society and the Ohio Society held weekly meetings, picnics, dances, and outings that filled the season with activity and camaraderie. These clubs offered newcomers an easy way to build friendships while also giving them a voice in local affairs. At the center of this movement was the Presidents’ Union, an umbrella organization that coordinated events and occasionally spoke on civic matters. Through its work, these societies helped define St. Pete’s identity as a friendly, small-town community where northerners could settle in quickly and feel welcome. They also strengthened regional ties, turning the Sunshine City into a warm extension of states hundreds of miles away. Tourism in this era was more than leisure. It was a sense of belonging. For many families, the friendships forged within these winter societies became the heart of their Florida experience.🦩Explore more at the Museum 10am to 5pm Monday through Saturday or from Noon to 5pm on $6 Sundays! #HistoryStPeteUpcoming EventsMORE Historically St. Pete https://audioboom.com/channels/1842136-radio-st-pete-podcast-archive?search=%23ruifarias#tourismstpete #tourismflorida #wishyouwerehere #history #ruifarias #stpetersburgmuseumofhistory #HISTORYicallystpete #sunshinecity #floridahistory #stpetersburghistory #tampabay #radio #stpete #radiostpete #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #downtownstpete #

In this episode of ST. PETE EATS, host Wendy Wesley and news director Nanette Wiser talk about healthy holiday eating tips, from party nibbling to home entertaining ideas. To eat healthy on holiday, plan ahead with smart snacks, prioritize hydration, and focus on portion control, but don't forbid treats; instead, choose wisely by filling up on local fruits/veggies and grilled options, eating mindfully (not skipping meals), and staying active to balance indulgence and enjoyment. "Don't pass up the holiday meal with all the fixings, but limit indulging in leftovers for days after; send them home with your guests," suggests Wesley.ABOUT WENDY WESLEY Wesley is an award-winning consultant, registered and licensed dietitian/nutritionist with a simple philosophy for making eating healthy simple with her 5 or less ingredient recipes and mantra "avoid processed foods, eat in season and don’t eat anything that isn't real." In her Good Eats podcast, Wendy connects listeners with the St. Pete food space makers who are doing good things with nutrition, access and agriculture. " I am very connected to the garden, farming, food pantry, personal chefs and food innovators in the community," she says.MORE ST.

In celebration of the 60th anniversary of A Charlie Brown Christmas, and its evocative, jazzy score, pianist Zachary Bartholomew and his trio are in town this weekend to breathe new life into what has become timeless music. The score was written and originally performed by the late Vince Guaraldi, whose deftness as a composer was matched by his arranging and recording brilliance. Guaraldi wrote for a half-dozen Peanuts specials and movies, and his music is as much a part of their winsome charm as Linus’ blanket, or Snoopy’s eccentricities. Bartholomew and his group go all-Guaraldi Sunday at the Palladium Theater’s Side Door Cabaret. (The show is sold out 12/12.) The Miami-based musician, composer and educator guests on today’s video edition of the Arts Alive! podcast. The Florida native discusses his love of music, his considerable education (he’s DR. Zachary Bartholomew) and the musicians that will accompany him for Sunday’s holiday concert. He also performs for us – a couple of classic tunes from A Charlie Brown Christmas.

Welcome back to Big Broadway Energy, the podcast where your host, Stephen Riordan, dives deep into the vibrant and ever-evolving world of theater in St. Petersburg and the Tampa Bay Area!December has finally arrived, and with it comes a sleigh-full of new holiday productions from our local theaters. One of our favorite emerging companies — The Off-Central Players — is bringing back a hilarious hit from last year: the outrageous one-woman comedy Who’s Holiday!This week, Stephen is joined by two incredible artists who are the heart and soul of this production: 🎭 Director: Dylan Barlow 🎭 Cindy Lou Who Herself: Alaina RahaimTogether, they break down the wild ride of bringing a beloved Dr. Seuss character into adulthood… a very messy adulthood. From trailer-park living on Mt. Crumpit to fourth-wall-breaking comedy, interactive storytelling, and enough bottles onstage to make your aunt blush — this show is everything your holiday season needs.🎄 About Who’s Holiday“One woman. One bottle. One very merry meltdown.” And yes — as Alaina says — there are definitely more than one bottle involved.Cindy Lou Who is all grown up, and her life has… not gone the way any Dr. Seuss fan might expect. This wickedly funny, adults-only parody peels back the candy-coated façade of Whoville to reveal heartbreak, resilience, and more than a little chaos.The result? A hilarious, heartfelt, deeply human holiday ride — packed into a tight, one-hour theatrical punch.🎙️ Episode Highlights Why The Off-Central is the perfect home for intimate, immersive theater. The artistic challenge and thrill of a one-person show. Dylan’s love of The Grinch and how it shapes his directorial lens. Alaina’s journey into Cindy Lou’s psyche — and her natural affinity for larger-than-life comedic roles. The realities of parody, permission, and a certain Dr. Seuss lawsuit. How the Tampa Bay theater community continues to explode with opportunity for emerging and established artists alike. A reminder that art, at its core, is magic, play, imagination, and connection. 📅 Performance Info🎭 Who’s Holiday 📍 The Off-Central Players – St. Petersburg, FL 📆 December 11 – December 21 🗓️ Thursdays through Sundays 💲 Pay-What-You-Can Night: Wednesday, December 17 ⚠️ Adults only / mature audiences strongly recommended.🎟️ Tickets: https://theoffcentral.comHalf the run’s seats are already reserved — so don’t wait!
