In this episode of Good Morning Hospitality, we’re sharing some big news: we’ve officially joined the Skift family!

We talk about what this means for the show, how the opportunity came together, and why this move makes so much sense for the community we’ve built over the past five years. From back-of-napkin ideas to early-morning recordings and wild conference weeks, this journey has been nothing short of incredible — and we’re just getting started.

We open up about the behind-the-scenes of the acquisition, what Wil will be doing as part of Skift, and most importantly, what won’t be changing: the vibe, the crew, and the conversations that matter most to this industry.

Thanks for being on this ride with us — seriously. We wouldn’t be here without your support, and we can’t wait to show you what’s next.
