GLAMPTUARY PODCAST - SEASON 5/EPISODE 03 - WITH SPECIAL GUEST ROBIN THURSTON - CEO OF OUTSIDE INC.
The first issue of Outside Magazine came out in 1977, and it was right around that time that a young Robin Thurston was looking through an issue preparing for a camping trip with his father in Colorado. Fast forward almost 50 years later, Robin is now the CEO of Outside Interactive, which owns Outside Magazine.
Robin is the living embodiment of the mission statement that fuels Outside Interactive - Get Everyone Outside. We're stoked to have Robin as our special guest in Episode 4, on Season 5, of The Glamptuary Podcast!
In this episode, Robin takes us back to the camping trip with his Father and explains how he fell in love with the outdoors. He also takes us through his entrepreneurial journey and successes. We dive into AI, and how technology can be used to disconnect. And we talk about the upcoming Outside Days Festival, and what the future looks like for the Outdoor hospitality and recreation industries.
Enjoy episode 4!

GLAMPTUARY PODCAST - SEASON 5/EPISODE 03 - WITH SPECIAL GUEST CONOR HALL - DIRECTOR OF OUTDOOR RECREATION FOR THE STATE OF COLORADO
We’re going to get political in Episode 3. Kind of.
Our guest does work in politics, but I would not call him a politician in the traditional sense. His name is Conor Hall and he is the Director of Outdoor Recreation for the State of Colorado, working in the Office of Economic Development and International Trade. Conor is a native Coloradan, an avid outdoorsman, and one of the key players responsible for launching the wildly successful OUTSIDE FEST, now known as OUTSIDE DAYS.
The festival saw over 35,000 attendees last year and the speakers included Diana Nyad, Alex Honnold and David Blaine. There were over 100 exhibitors, a film festival, dozens of bands, and a lot of excitement about the outdoor hospitality and recreation industry. We’ll talk with Conor about the birth of OUTSIDE DAYS, and the partnership between Outside Magazine and the Colorado State Government.
We’ll also talk about the socio and economic impact outdoor recreation has in Colorado, as well as the Trump Administration's policies that are negatively impacting the outdoor hospitality and recreation industries.
Enjoy Episode 3 on Season 5 of The Glamptuary Podcast!
