Podcasts about Hospitality

Scott is in Sicily, so Zach, Ben Wolff and Edwin Kramer take the docket. Edwin checks in from a new boutique hotel on Spain's Costa Blanca, and Ben is fresh from the glamping show. The first story: Hilton's CIO says AI assistants have put online travel agencies under real threat, yet he expects personal AI agents to become commissionable channels too. The crew asks what "direct" even means when an agent that never sleeps keeps rate-shopping after the booking is made. Edwin says post-booking shopping could be a bigger disruption than the booking itself. Then Booking.com tightens how much guest data, including phone numbers, it passes to hotels. Next, Lola, the new AI travel assistant from Kayak's co-founders, wholly owned by Booking Holdings. It has a free tier, a $5 a month membership and a $25 a month VIP plan, and both paid plans need a 12-month commitment. Edwin thinks it could make the OTA stronger. Ben is highly skeptical that anyone will pay up front for perks. Then Choice Hotels buys RV club Harvest Hosts for a reported $130 million. The crew talks about farm hospitality, RVers who eventually want a real bed, and what IHG and Wyndham do next. The closer: Europe's new anti-greenwashing rules took effect September 27. Edwin explains why they are hard to police and why hotels may go quiet about sustainability instead. Plus spice of the week: a hot September in southern Europe, and why this is the moment to experiment.   Your Hosts: Zach Busekrus — Journey LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zachbusekrus/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/behindthestays/ Scott Eddy — Global Travel & Hospitality Expert @MrScottEddy LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrscotteddy/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrscotteddy/ Ben Wolff — Founder of Onera & Oasi LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-wolff/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iambenwolff/ Edwin Kramer — Luxury Hotelier Consultant & Former GM LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edwinckramer/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/edwinkramer/

We love extremes. Novel services, events, specials, and stunts to catapult us into the consciousness of our customers seem to be what we favor and are fixated on. After all, it proves that we are different, better, and that we care about people and quality!...right? Not exactly. Just like Settling the Table before it, Wil Guidara's great book, Unreasonable Hospitality has been making the rounds in the coffee sphere. Many draw inspiration from this book and it helps them make their shops better. Others I have seen take the idea of "unreasonable" and jump over the basics directly into extreme and novel one off efforts or give into the compulsion to reinvent vs refine who they are and what they do. This I feel is a mistake. Today we will be talking about why we need to start with and more successfully maintain reasonable hospitality in order to naturally bring about the kind of moments we can later say were unreasonable, but fit with who we are, vs efforts that we slap on to our shops that are flailing in the basics.   Consulting to help you and your coffee business thrive.

What can a modern revenue management system (RMS) actually do for an independent hotel? In this episode, David Millili sits down with Steve Taft, VP of Partnerships at  ampliphi RMS, and Tim Kolman, VP of Sales at ampliphi RMS, to discuss how modern revenue management systems are helping independent hotels compete with larger brands.For many 40-room independent hotels, revenue management is still something owners and operators handle at the end of a long day. From check-ins and check-outs to laundry, breakfast, maintenance, and guest service, there is often little time left for analyzing demand and optimizing room rates.In this episode, we discuss:Why independent hotels have historically been underserved by hospitality technologyHow a 40-room independent hotel can approach hotel pricing and revenue managementWhy legacy RMS technology created the perception that revenue management requires extensive manpowerThe difference between an all-in-one hotel technology stack and a best-in-breed technology strategyIf you're a hotel owner, general manager, revenue manager, hospitality technology professional, or independent hotel operator interested in hotel revenue optimization, RMS technology, AI for hotels, dynamic pricing, RevPAR, commercial strategy, and independent hotel technology, this episode is for you.Watch the FULL EPISODE on YouTube: https://youtu.be/bmg2EWB-8NU Links:Steve on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevetaft/Tim on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tkolman/ampliphi RMS: https://www.getampliphi.com/For full show notes head to: https://themodernhotelier.com/episode/337Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-..Join the conversation on today's episode on The Modern Hotelier LinkedIn pageConnect with Steve and David:Steve: https://www.linkedin.com/in/%F0%9F%8E...David: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-mil.

It's time to set the table, simmer some soup, and open your heart to welcome others in. But why make the effort? As Christians, we practice hospitality because Christ has generously welcomed us into His kingdom and love. In today's episode, we're diving into the "why" and "how" of Biblical hospitality—sharing practical ideas, addressing common hesitations, and uncovering the encouraging truth God's Word offers on opening our homes to others.Resources:The Gospel Comes with a House Key by Rosaria ButterfieldEpisode 203: Everyday Theology - Two Paths with Brittany Colchagoffhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unshaken/id1518435724?i=1000654306294Reach out at:unshakenpsalm622@gmail.comChrist the Word Church Sermons - PodcastChurch History by Christ The Word Church - PodcastTruth & Life - PodcastFellow Heirs - Podcast

They share real examples, talk about handling mistakes well, and discuss why great service is about more than simply meeting expectations.

In this special episode of the Yes, Columbus podcast, Sarah and Boxer sit down with Didio Pequeno of CoStar to take a closer look at the “heads-in-beds” conversation and explore what hotel demand, visitor spending and meetings mean for Columbus' economy—and the future of the city's meetings and conventions industry.Didio Pequeno joined CoStar Group as Director of Hospitality Market Analytics, responsible for the Northeast and Midwestern regions.

"It's a restaurant with rooms attached." That's how Tony Greenberg describes SingleThread — and Ariela thinks it might be the future of hospitality. In this episode, Tony, co-founder of SingleThread and CEO of Vertice Hospitality, joins Ariela to trace his unlikely path from working under Mayor Bloomberg on the Hudson Yards development to surviving the 2008 financial crisis to co-founding SingleThread with chef Kyle Connaughton. They dig into what makes SingleThread's restaurant-inn-farm model work, how retail and hospitality are converging across every industry, and why Tony insists that integrity — not opportunity — should decide which projects a hospitality brand takes on.Episode Time Stamps:0:00 – Introduction to Tony Greenberg and SingleThread0:40 – From NYU finance grad to working on Hudson Yards under Mayor Bloomberg3:32 – Striking out on his own to found Up Ventures4:16 – The pivot to food and hospitality, and building Food Union with top chefs6:22 – Losing it all in the 2008 financial crisis, and meeting future co-founder Kyle Connaughton7:11 – Building SingleThread as a side project that quickly took off9:47 – What SingleThread actually is: a restaurant, inn, and farm woven into one experience11:20 – Hospitality's spread into retail and other industries14:22 – Opening Selvedge: extending SingleThread into a standalone inn16:02 – Retail at SingleThread: starting small and staying true to the core business20:37 – Why integrity, not opportunity, should decide which projects to take on20:59 – Bringing SingleThread to Kyoto through a partnership with Capella Hotel Group24:09 – Closing: what's next for SingleThread, including Entremet and future locationsEpisode Highlights:Tony's origin story: working for Mayor Bloomberg's Economic Development Corp on Hudson Yards in his 20s, negotiating opposite real estate titans like Steve Roth and Douglas DurstStriking out on his own to found Up Ventures after discovering he was barred from working with anyone who'd bid on Hudson YardsBuilding Food Union with chefs Thomas Keller, David Chang, and Albert Adrià as anchor tenants — and watching it collapse in the 2008 financial crisisMeeting future SingleThread co-founder Kyle Connaughton through that experience, and starting SingleThread as a side projectWhat SingleThread actually is: a restaurant, inn, and farm designed as one continuous guest experienceWhy hospitality is bleeding into retail and other industries, and his take on which brands are doing it well versus poorlyOpening Selvedge, a 10–11 room extension of SingleThread with no restaurant of its ownHis approach to retail: starting small (farm store, CPG products, artisan collaborations) and never letting it distract from the core businessWhy he insists on integrity as a filter for every business decision — "if you can't execute at a very high level, just don't do it"Bringing SingleThread to Kyoto through a partnership with Capella Hotel Group, after a pre-COVID Japan project fell throughWhat's next: opening SingleThread Entremet and plans to expand the concept to a few more international locations over timeTony and Ariela close on a theme that's run through the whole conversation: growth, for Tony, only makes sense when it makes everything — the guest experience, the team, and the brand — better, not just bigger. From Hudson Yards to Food Union's collapse to building SingleThread almost by accident, his throughline is patience and integrity over opportunism. As hospitality continues to spill into retail, real estate, and beyond, his approach offers a clear filter: only take on what you can execute at the highest level, and let everything else wait.Stay tuned for the next episode of The Unfamiliar Shift with Ariela for more insightful discussions on the boutique lifestyle lodging industry.Keep connected with BLLA for the latest updates and explore BLLA.org for more resources.

Diet and wellness culture often lead us to fear or restrict certain foods or amounts. Food is often seen as something to be optimized or controlled. But what if we began viewing food from a completely different lens-one of gratitude, abundance, enjoyment, and even deep meaning? That is the conversation I dig into with Andrew Camp in today's episode.Andrew Camp is a former chef and pastor, who holds a master's degree in spiritual formation and soul care. Andrew also hosts The Longest Table Podcast, where he explores how the intersection of food and faith can foster community and connection.In our time together, we explore the themes of food, hospitality, and the table in the Biblical narrative, as well as tensions around food and the table in modern-day society. I was also fascinated by our discussion on the transformational, even mystical, elements we might experience around the table. For me, this conversation was refreshing and intriguing. I hope the same is true for you.Buy Melissa L. Johnson's book, Soul-Deep Beauty: Fighting for Our True Worth in a World Demanding Flawless, here.

What if becoming a better host has less to do with knowing every strategy—and more to do with understanding people?In this episode of the STR Sisterhood, I'm joined by Daniella Morganelli, a school counselor, former property manager, and Airbnb host who has been in the short-term rental space since 2018. Daniella brings a unique perspective to hospitality because so much of her professional life has centered around people—understanding their emotions, navigating conflict, solving problems, and learning to meet people where they are.And those skills translate beautifully into hosting.We dive into emotional intelligence—being aware of your own emotions, beliefs, and perspectives while recognizing that the person on the other side of a situation may experience it very differently.In this episode, we talk about:What emotional intelligence looks like in short-term rental hospitalityWhy meeting guests where they are can completely change how you handle difficult situationsPutting yourself in someone else's shoes before reacting to a conflictThe difference between solving a problem for someone and working through it with themWhy great hospitality means accommodating guests—within reasonRecognizing when being a people pleaser can lead to being too accommodatingHow self-awareness can make you a stronger communicator, host, and business ownerBecause the truth is, guests aren't always showing up relaxed and carefree. Travel can be stressful. People have different expectations, preferences, and ways of communicating—and sometimes that stress comes out as a complaint.That doesn't mean you have to say yes to everything.But it does mean there's tremendous value in slowing down long enough to understand what's really happening before you respond.Sometimes the better question isn't, “Who's right?”It's, “How can we work through this?”And that small shift can help you handle challenging conversations with more clarity, create a better experience for your guests, and become a more confident host along the way.HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY POINTS:[00:47] A short introduction about our guest Daniella Morganelli, and how her passion for hospitality evolved from property management into a short-term rental and travel-focused business[05:41] Daniella shares the operational realities of hosting strangers in her backyard pool through Swimply, including last-minute bookings, towels, amenities, and setting boundaries [07:36] Daniella explains how her background in property management and school counseling has taught her to meet people where they are and navigate guest emotions [11:00] How emotional intelligence can help short-term rental hosts better understand themselves, their guests, and the conflicts that come with hospitality[14:35] Daniella explains how emotional intelligence can help hosts diffuse guest frustrations by focusing on solutions, accommodation, and giving guests space [17:40] Daniella shares how emotional intelligence, hospitality, and a desire to help others shape the way she approaches her many businesses[23:12] How Daniella learned to prioritize self-care while balancing motherhood, a full-time career, and multiple hospitality businesses [28:03] Daniella shares how travel, Disney, and hospitality have become a meaningful part of her life and the way she creates memories with her family[31:15] Daniela shares how entrepreneurship transformed her confidence and taught her to trust herself[38:06] The lightning round Golden Nuggets:“Understanding your own self helps you understand other people too.”“I'm glad that I have taken all the risks that I have because it's helped build my confidence and my self esteem.”“My light, my confidence, my ability to have a positive outlook can shine through that plexiglass, but the negativity never penetrates me.”“You can have a beautifully designed space when it's not operated well, it is not going to go so well. But design plus the operations, I really feel are super important.”Let's Connect: Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/crimsoncocoachalet/ https://www.instagram.com/dmtravelvibesFacebook : https://www.facebook.com/VacaVibesinD5/ https://www.facebook.com/DMTravelVibes/ https://www.facebook.com/morganellibabe/ Enjoyed the show?

In this episode, Gentleman's Journal editor Joe Bullmore sits down with Jones to discuss his remarkable career, the lessons learned from three decades in hospitality, and his latest chapter: The St. Clement Hotel.

This week on Conflict Managed we welcome Kristi Ellingsworth. Together we explore: Engaging and empathizing with those who don't get what they want Creativity and generosity The willingness to be uncomfortable with people in conflict Sharing your calm with others Leadership energy Curious vs judgmental mindset Taking pauses throughout the day to self-regulate Being generous with compliments Conflict Managed is available wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube @3pconflictrestoration Kristi Ellingsworth is the Director of Hospitality at Dartcor Enterprises. Her work centers on employee experience, leadership development, emotional intelligence, and creating workplace cultures where people feel genuinely supported and connected. What makes her perspective especially unique is that she didn't come up through traditional HR—she spent more than a decade in fine dining, including nearly seven years as Maitre d' at Nobu Hospitality, where she managed VIP guest relationships, trained front-of-house teams, and navigated the constant demands of high-pressure hospitality environments. Today, she brings those same hospitality principles into the workplace, helping leaders think differently about communication, conflict, trust, and psychological safety. She also previously hosted her own wellness podcast, The Alternative Podcast with Kristi Ellingsworth, where she interviewed experts on mindset, mindfulness, and personal growth. Kristi's philosophy is simple: the employee experience is the first customer experience. Conflict Managed is produced by Third Party Workplace Conflict Restoration Services and hosted by Merry Brown. #ConflictManagement #WorkplaceCulture #Communication #Connection #Podcast

We are taking a deep dive into 1 Corinthians 15:1 and 2 to see what Paul says about the gospel of Jesus and how it changes our lives. What we are seeing with some of the Corinthians is that the gospel hasn't really made a difference in their lives and they continue to live in sin. Paul has warned them on multiple occasions to quit the sin and get in right relationship with Jesus and with those in the church, but they continue to discredit Paul, his authority, his apostleship, and his message because if they can discredit him, it makes them feel as though they can defend their sinful actions instead of repenting and allowing Jesus and the gospel to change them. Were they saved? Are they saved? Paul puts conditions on their faith and we break it down in this podcast!

The Fifth Tradition: Hospitality“When thou comest to a foreign city, thou shall present thyself to the one who ruleth there. Without the word of acceptance, thou art nothing.”Hospitality sounds polite. In the Camarilla, it's anything but.Bob digs into the Fifth Tradition and the very practical problem it attempts to solve: how many immortal predators can a city actually sustain? We tackle Vampire's infamous one Kindred per 100,000 mortals guideline, why it makes little sense as a measure of available blood, and why it becomes far more interesting when viewed as a measure of anonymity, hunting access, territory, and Masquerade risk.From there, Hospitality becomes politics. Who gets into the city? Who gets turned away? What happens when the city is “full,” but an elder suddenly needs somewhere to stay? What is your reputation worth when you vouch for a newcomer—and what happens when the Prince's legitimate authority to control population becomes a convenient weapon against political rivals?Because another vampire doesn't just consume blood.They consume the city's ability to pretend vampires aren't there.Welcome to the Fifth Tradition: Hospitality.Support the showhttps://linktr.ee/25YearsOfVtM

Last week at the My Place Hotels of America conference, I talked with Jeff Thomas, VP of Marketing, about how a smaller hotel company competes against brands with much bigger marketing budgets. Jeff says My Place started experimenting with AI back in 2022, using it to create visual content at scale, personalize marketing and improve how travelers find its hotels through ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and other AI tools. His team tests aggressively, learns quickly and tracks revenue coming through AI-driven discovery. We also get into #HotelMarketing, AI search and why Jeff keeps his team focused on a clear strategy instead of chasing every new platform that pops up. Watch this one to hear how My Place uses #AI to compete more effectively across #Hospitality. Want the weekly roundup of news, videos, and what you might've missed from #NoVacancyNews?

AI is the tool, mindset is the operating system, and hospitality is the outcome. In this episode, Danica Smith, Guest Experience Correspondent at Hospitality Daily and founder of MorningStar GX, shares what this framework means for hospitality leaders: giving people the time and support to use AI, keeping experimentation focused on useful outcomes, and considering operational efficiency alongside team well-being and guest experience.Read Danica's article: You Cannot Automate Your Way Out Of OverwhelmListen to our previous conversation: Is AI Actually Improving Our Lives?

In this lecture, the speaker reflects on Romans 12:9–14 and focuses on hospitality as a Christian practice. He begins with the example of Andre and Magda Trocmé in Le Chambon, who helped shelter Jewish refugees during World War II. Their response to danger is presented as an illustration of practical, costly welcome.The sermon explains that Christian hospitality is not occasional entertaining but a deliberate pursuit of the outsider. The speaker connects this to Romans 15, where believers are told to accept one another as Christ has accepted them. Hospitality is described as helping others experience the welcome God has already given.The lecture then traces the theme of God's hospitality through the Bible, from creation to the cross. It emphasizes that God invites people into his presence, provides what is needed to come without shame, and welcomes those who were once far off. The speaker uses the image of being clothed properly for a formal table to describe being made ready through Jesus.Another major section addresses the difficulty of hospitality. The speaker discusses the tendency to prefer “people like me” and warns against inward-focused community. He gives examples of Christians crossing ethnic, generational, and social divides, including students in Rwanda and the church's life in Baltimore.The sermon concludes by linking hospitality to the future hope of God's homecoming. The speaker says Christian hospitality prepares people to welcome God's coming kingdom and should shape church life through generosity, care for needs, and openness across political and cultural differences. He ends by inviting members to commit to this kind of community.

If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. My guest: Danny Meyer is the founder of Union Square Hospitality Group and one of the most influential restaurateurs of his generation. He built New York landmarks like Union Square Cafe and Gramercy Tavern, and Shake Shack... He's the author of the classic Setting the Table and the new What Could Possibly Go Right? Key Learnings "Business, like life, is all about how you make people feel. It's that simple and it's that hard." "Optimists and pessimists die the same way. They just live differently." Shimon Peres. Danny prefers to live as an optimist. Most people respond to hope. A few will come out of a dark closet hopping on a pogo stick and a few will walk on the shady side no matter what. Most people start the day intending to make it better than yesterday, and they'll follow someone who shows them how that could happen. A growing business needs funding and leadership. It also needs soil. Like a plant needs sun and water and still needs something to grow in. The soil is the culture, and it determines whether anything you plant actually grows. Be explicit about which behaviors you celebrate and which you won't tolerate. Then be relentlessly consistent about both. That's how culture survives you not being in the room. Everyone is watching who gets hired, promoted, and paid. Every time you compromise on either the skills or the character, you send a message that you didn't mean any of the words. Probably unwittingly, but you send it. Curiosity is the behavior Danny celebrates most. If you want a team that treats every day as a chance to be better than yesterday, someone has to actually wonder what could be done differently. Entrepreneurs are upsighted. Danny's word. They only see what's up, only see what could possibly go right, and they look at existing problems that would make the world better if solved. A bad salesperson answers questions you never asked. Danny remembers a shoe store that hauled out everything from the back room regardless of what he wanted. The only two questions that mattered were does it fit and do I like it. A great one gets into your shoes and asks what you'd want. Sometimes they help you get to the question you actually have. There's no job that doesn't benefit from good sales skills, and good writing skills. Entrepreneurial athleticism is the trait Danny looks for in every leader. Talent gets you in the door. Athleticism is dedicating yourself to train plus the mental and emotional mettle to find a way to win. Day one mentality. The day a restaurant opens, nothing is scratched, every door works, nothing is smudged, and you assume everyone might be a critic. Day one of year 10 should be better than the original, because you have ten years of learning. Without that, it only goes backwards. The hiring formula is 49 and 51. Forty-nine percent is how well he thinks you can do the job, which is mostly technical and different for every role. Fifty-one percent is who you are. That 51 percent is Hospitality Quotient. The composite of optimistic warmth, curious intelligence, determined work ethic, empathy, self-awareness, and integrity. Someone with a high HQ is happier themselves when they make someone else feel better. "Cooking a great piece of fish only gets you to the 49-yard line." You need all 100, and it isn't just the servers who need it. It's everybody. A high HQ is a liability in an interview. Danny sometimes has to park his own at the door, because his job isn't to make the candidate feel good. It's to assess how they'll make the staff and the guests feel. Never ask if someone is self-aware. They'll say yes. Ask instead: "What's the greatest misperception other people have about you?" You can't answer it without self-awareness, because you have to know both what you are and what you're projecting. When hiring a chef, Danny already knows they can cook. What he's testing is the feedback loop. Will they get defensive? Grateful? He may well be wrong in the feedback, and he still wants to know early what it's going to be like to lead this person. Caitlin took a reservation and saved a woman's life. She was getting a phone number when the caller's voice started halting. Caitlin sensed something was wrong, asked permission to call 911, and got the address. It was a hemorrhagic stroke. The woman survived and had to relearn how to speak. Caitlin was so moved that she went back to school to become a speech therapist for people with aphasia. When the woman died recently, she left Caitlin the money to pay for it. A good employee books the table accurately. A great one changes someone's night, or their life. Danny's point about Caitlin: nobody trained her for that. The culture did. Mind share is what marketing earns. Heart share is what hospitality earns. Mind share means people know you exist and think of you first. Heart share means they love you and tell everyone they know. The golden rule of hospitality is not the golden rule. Do unto others as you believe they would want done unto them. Service is one size fits all. Hospitality is one size fits one. The salmon that changed everything. Soon after Gramercy Tavern opened, a Union Square Cafe regular told Danny what happened was inexcusable. Her salmon came well done when she'd ordered it rare. Danny's first reaction was that an honest kitchen mistake didn't seem so bad. The mistake wasn't the problem. The response was. At Union Square Cafe, she said, the server would have noticed, quietly removed it, brought soup so her guests could keep eating, recooked it properly, and probably taken it off the bill. At Gramercy, nobody came over while she picked at it. A manager eventually took the plate, handed her a coat check, told her the rest would be waiting at the door, and left it on the bill. "If you don't have language, you cannot teach." For ten years Danny led one restaurant by embodying the behavior he wanted. With two, wherever he was, he wasn't at the other one. It was the first time he had to lead by using his words instead of just embodying what he wanted to see. Enlightened hospitality, in this order: Each other first. How the team treats each other, with generosity and charitable assumption. Then the guests. Then the community and the suppliers. Then the investors, who end up with more because of everything above. Break it anywhere, starting with how people care for each other, and it doesn't work. Lead with generosity. You're in business for tomorrow dollars, not today dollars. His staff charged that woman for the salmon because they were afraid she was working an angle. Danny's response: where is the charitable assumption that maybe we just overcooked it? Nice and kind are different. Nice isn't a bad thing, but sometimes nice is how you avoid addressing a problem. Kind means I'm on your side, which sometimes means holding up the mirror. If someone isn't measuring up and you let it go, that isn't kind and it isn't even nice. Kindness takes the courage to give honest feedback without demoralizing the person. Laying people off during the pandemic wasn't nice. Doing it one at a time was kind. Several hundred people, and nobody got laid off by tweet or mass email. Everyone was spoken to by their own boss. Shake Shack started because Danny asked what could possibly go right. An artist needed someone to run a hot dog cart under an installation in Madison Square Park. His team said they were too busy running four restaurants. Danny's argument was that the park was the front yard of two of them, and you take care of your front yard. They staffed it with their coat checkers and served Chicago-style on purpose. The coat checkers had no work until the weather turned cold, so this gave them a summer job. Chicago-style has eight toppings, which let them find out whether four coat checkers could remember how every regular liked it. The point was proving hospitality isn't only for fancy restaurants. They lost money two years running, and the community started calling it "our hot dog cart." Danny heard the word "our" and knew people felt shared ownership. Then he gave away the building. He built a $750,000 kiosk and donated it to the park, so the park owns the building and his company owns the business. A percentage of every sale goes back into keeping the park beautiful and safe. That first Shake Shack still pays just under a million dollars a year in rent to the park. Danny's champagne moment a year from now: that the book actually meant something to people. He wrote it to teach himself, because that's how he learns. If the lessons he picked up scraping his knees turn out to be useful to someone else, it was worth it. Reflection Questions Which behaviors does your team know for certain you celebrate, and which do they know you won't tolerate? If you asked five of them, would you get the same five answers? Look at your last promotion. Did that person clear the bar on both the 49 and the 51? What did everyone else learn from watching it? Where are you being nice right now when the situation calls for you to hold up the mirror?

Across Pakistan's rooftops, pigeon flyers devote enormous care and labor to birds that soar the skies, take part in competitions, and knit together communities otherwise divided by caste, class, language, and ethnicity. Spies and Other Pigeons: Hospitality and Hostility in Multispecies Pakistan (U Washington, 2026) follows these flyers across four provinces, revealing a world of shauq (passionate pursuits) where training, feeding, and flying become affective acts to welcome a more-than-human other into the home.When cherished birds cross the militarized India-Pakistan border, they are recast as intruders and “spies," exposing the thin line between welcome and suspicion, hospitality and hostility. Through long-term ethnography, Dr. Muhammed Kavesh traces the layered meanings of arrival, both at the home and the homeland, showing how pigeons illuminate political tensions while sustaining bonds of play, care, and enthusiasm. Interweaving anthropology, South Asian studies, and multispecies studies with the Punjabi folktale of Heer Ranjha, Dr. Kavesh offers a conceptually rich account of human-pigeon relatedness. Moving from village lofts and urban rooftops to racing clubs and borderlands, the book demonstrates how animals mediate danger, belonging, and reciprocity across contested lines.Original and exciting, Spies and Other Pigeons reframes multispecies anthropology through a South Asian lens, revealing how the care and labor of pigeon keeping anchor local worlds and unsettle national borders.

The full squad is back. Royal Caribbean is taking a 50% stake in Sandals Resorts for roughly $3 billion, and the crew breaks down why a cruise line wants an all-inclusive hotel brand. Edwin runs the numbers on who is really serving whose guests, and Scott, who has known the Stewart family most of his life, explains why cruise companies can't build ships fast enough and are coming ashore instead. Then it's Airbnb's hotel push: just shy of 4,000 hotels on the new listing format, hand-curated and aimed at independent and soft-brand three- and four-star properties. Ben weighs in as an operator who knows the platform well, and Edwin asks what happens to hotels when short-term rental markets get squeezed. From there, Uber's hotel business: Dara Khosrowshahi says the traveler comes to Uber, Uber One has more than 50 million paying members, and the Blacklane deal hints at where a trip super app could go. The closer: at Skift's first creator summit, IHG and Hyatt said they're giving up control of scripted creator campaigns. Scott says it's six years too late. Ben says social is now the best customer acquisition channel on the planet, and any brand that won't invest in it is choosing to hand its bookings to the OTAs. Plus spice of the week, from an Ibiza rave revival to the difference between building a brand and putting heads in beds.   Your Hosts: Zach Busekrus — Journey LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zachbusekrus/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/behindthestays/ Scott Eddy — Global Travel & Hospitality Expert @MrScottEddy LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrscotteddy/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrscotteddy/ Ben Wolff — Founder of Onera & Oasi LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-wolff/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iambenwolff/ Edwin Kramer — Luxury Hotelier Consultant & Former GM LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edwinckramer/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/edwinkramer/

Today's guest is David Gavaldon, a new member of the Stash Hotel Rewards team who spent years on the hotel side of the program before joining their side. He sits down with host Audrey Yates to break down how independent hotels can compete with corporate giants by building their own loyalty program without losing the independent spirit that makes them special.In this episode, you'll learn:Why loyalty beats OTA traffic — the difference between price-driven OTA guests and the loyalty guests who book direct, feel special, and come backHow to compete with the chains — why "we also have a loyalty program" is a powerful line for any independent propertyThe network effect — how getting introduced at one Stash property immediately connects guests to a portfolio of nearly 400 independent hotels across North AmericaWhy staff buy-in makes or breaks the program — the one thing hotels get wrong (hint: if the staff doesn't buy in, why should the guests?)Easy integration — how Stash works with almost every PMS and CRS, so you can tap into the network without changing your tech stackThe direct-booking advantage — why booking direct is astronomically better for the hotel, and how to spread that messageWatch the FULL EPISODE on YouTube:  https://youtu.be/JhGTESfEPxU Links:Audrey on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/audrey-yates-0b5331b4/David on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-gavaldon-036b76425/ Stash Hotel Rewards: https://www.stashrewards.com/For full show notes head to: https://themodernhotelier.com/episode/333Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-..Join the conversation on today's episode on The Modern Hotelier LinkedIn pageConnect with Steve and David:Steve: https://www.linkedin.com/in/%F0%9F%8E...David: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-mil.

The minute you get too comfortable, somebody else passes you. Gary Hernbroth, author of Twist the Familiar, joins me on No Vacancy to talk about questioning how we work, how we lead and how we build relationships. His point is simple: confidence moves you forward, but comfort turns into complacency fast. That applies to careers, #HotelLeadership, sales and pretty much every part of #Hospitality. We also get into failure and why people who fall down, learn and adjust often bring more value than people pretending they never screw up. Watch this one to challenge a few habits, rethink how you approach people and keep yourself from getting too comfortable.

This is a Vintage episode from 2006.Why This Episode MattersRick Tramonto makes the case for fine dining that is polished and precise without being stiff or intimidating.The Guys tackle an enduring hospitality dilemma: when does accommodating one guest diminish the experience for everyone else?Tramonto reflects on restaurants as a place for nontraditional careers, mentorship and finding a sense of belonging.The conversation ends with the importance of cooking, family and gathering around the table.BanterMark and Francis discuss a 2006 proposal to block cell-phone signals in movie theaters—and whether restaurants should do the same. That leads to the story of guests who opened a laptop in the Catherine Lombardi dining room and started watching a movie with the sound on.The ConversationRick Tramonto joins the cell-phone debate from the perspective of Tru, where the philosophy was to cherish the customer and say yes whenever possible—until one guest's behavior began interfering with everyone else's experience. From there, he explains his approach to fine dining: maintain impeccable technical standards, but lose the stiffness, read the table and make people feel comfortable.The conversation broadens into why restaurants attract people who take unconventional paths. Tramonto talks about cooking as a combination of art, science, craft and business, and about the responsibility chefs and operators have to mentor young people drawn to the intensity of restaurant life. He closes with the importance of home cooking, family meals and keeping people gathered around the table.Guest BioRick Tramonto is an acclaimed chef, restaurateur and cookbook author. At the time of this 2006 conversation, he was chef-partner of Chicago's celebrated Tru restaurant and one of the leading figures in American fine dining.Timestamps00:00 Vintage introduction01:00 Cell phones and dining-room etiquette08:00 Rick Tramonto joins: when hospitality has to say no14:00 Taking the intimidation out of fine dining18:00 Restaurants as a path for nontraditional learners22:00 Mentorship and restaurant culture25:00 Family, home cooking and gathering around the tableInfoMore about Rickhttps://tramontocuisine.com/Oct 23, Friday - Winemaker Dinner w/ Neri Capponi of Villa Calcinaia WineryOct 26-31 - Spooky BarOct 27, Tuesday - Robert Simonson book signing cocktail partyMore info - https://www.stageleft.com/events/ Subscribe: Restaurant Guys' Regularhttps://restaurantguysregulars.buzzsprout.com/Magyar Bankhttps://www.magbank.com/Stage Left Wine Shophttps://www.stageleftwineshop.com/Our PlacesStage Left Steakhttps://www.stageleft.com/Catherine Lombardi Restauranthttps://www.catherinelombardi.com/Stage Left Wineshophttps://www.stageleftwineshop.com/Reach Out to The Guys!TheGuys@restaurantguyspodcast.com

Few people in Omaha's restaurant scene are more fun to chat with than Tim Maides, the co-owner of Dolomiti, and unpacking his brain on pizza is a true delight. We nerd out on ovens a dough a bit, but we also talk a lot about Dolomiti's approach to treating guests and how expectations, from both restaurant and guest, can affect a dining experience. This is a fun one, and very educational!

On today's episode of Revitalize & Replant, Mark Clifton, Mark Hallock, and Dan Hurst continue their discussion on why many people feel lonely even in a world that is always connected. Building on Part 1, this conversation digs into practical, often-overlooked reasons loneliness persists inside the church, from generational disconnection to closed-off homes to people silently carrying heavy burdens. Together, the Marks and Dan discuss how intentional hospitality and cross-generational relationships can help churches become places where people are truly known—not just attended.Some Highlights:Younger and older believers are often disconnected. This weakens discipleship and encouragement.Hospitality is often neglected. Many homes are busy, private, or closed off.Many people suffer quietly. They carry grief, anxiety, addiction, or family pain alone. Resources Related to This Episode:Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community by Robert D.

A packed bar can look wildly successful from the outside while quietly losing money behind the scenes. In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Chris Schneider, Bar Business Coach, who shares why many bars struggle not because they lack customers, but because owners often lack the financial systems, pricing discipline, labor management, and business acumen needed to protect margins. He explains the importance of prime cost, hiring for attitude rather than experience, creating a memorable guest experience, and making dozens of small operational improvements that collectively improve the bottom line. Chris also explores how AI can support back-office operations, why owners need to rely on data instead of instinct alone, and what he would change first when turning around a struggling neighborhood bar. Key Takeaways:→ A bar can be packed with customers and still lose money if pricing, labor, entertainment, and other operating costs are not properly managed.→ Hospitality businesses often struggle when passion and operational experience are not paired with strong business and financial skills.→ Prime cost, which combines labor and the cost of goods sold, is one of the most important metrics bar and restaurant owners need to monitor.→ A clean, well-maintained restroom can strongly influence how guests perceive the overall cleanliness and quality of the entire establishment.→ Delivering an exceptional guest experience can generate more valuable word-of-mouth marketing than many traditional advertising methods. Chris Schneider bridges three critical areas in hospitality: operations, financial systems, and education. A former bar owner, he learned firsthand how to be profitable by managing neighborhood bars where every decision impacts the bottom line. His experience at Intuit as a QuickBooks Live Manager exposed him to patterns across thousands of small businesses, revealing that success comes from better systems and smarter use of financial data.Chris later taught hospitality at Ivy Tech, where he refined his ability to turn complex challenges into repeatable systems. He now coaches bar owners using his MCC Framework—Mindset, Concept, Culture—to improve profitability and operations.He hosts The Bar Business Podcast, reaching listeners in 100+ countries, and is the author of multiple industry books. Chris helps independent bar owners build profitable, system-driven businesses that align with their vision.
