This week on the Hosting Hotline, Sarah and Annette answer a thoughtful question from Emily in Australia, who's deciding between two strong guest avatars for her soon-to-launch short-term rental: a family-friendly, non-toxic stay or a high-demand wedding-guest retreat located just steps from one of the area's most popular venues.If you've ever wondered whether you're choosing the right avatar—or worried you might be leading with emotion rather than strategy—this episode breaks down exactly how to assess your market, understand your demand drivers, and choose an avatar that aligns with your goals.Sarah and Annette walk through the realities of both niches, how ADR and booking windows change based on guest type, and why “when you confuse, you lose” is one of the most important truths in STR marketing.Whether you're defining your avatar for the first time or rethinking your current strategy, this conversation gives you the clarity and confidence you need to position your property for success.In this episode we cover:How to evaluate whether your chosen guest avatar aligns with your market The difference between a family-friendly stay and a wedding/event traveler Why appealing to everyone leads to confusion and fewer bookings (“confuse and lose”) How to define what success looks like before choosing your niche (profitability vs. alignment) Key differences in ADR, booking windows, and seasonality across both avatars How proximity to a major wedding venue impacts demand and pricing strategy Why clarity in marketing, photography, and copy directly boosts conversions When (and how) to pivot if your current avatar isn't performing Mentioned in this episode:Lodgify | Use code TFV20

Die aktuellen Wirtschaftsnachrichten mit Michael Weyland  Thema heute:        Laub vom Nachbargrundstück: Wie viel ist zu viel? Es kommt immer wieder zu Streitigkeiten unter Nachbarn, wenn Laub vom Nachbargrundstück in den eigenen Garten weht: Was vielen Hausbesitzern nicht bewusst ist:  Sie müssen dies in den meisten Fällen hinnehmen - selbst wenn die herübergewehten Blätter ab und zu die Dachrinne verstopfen. Darauf macht das Infocenter der R+V Versicherung aufmerksam. Blätter, Nadeln und Zapfen halten sich nicht an Zäune und Grenzen: Der Wind weht sie auch auf benachbarte Grundstücke. "Das ist jedoch kein Grund, sie zurückzuwerfen oder zu verlangen, dass die störenden Bäume beseitigt werden", sagt man bei bei der R+V Versicherung. Die Betroffenen müssen das fremde Laub selbst entfernen und entsorgen - sofern es die Benutzung des Grundstücks nicht wesentlich beeinträchtigt, ergänzt man: "Einen Gärtner oder Reinigungsdienst zu beauftragen und die Rechnung an den Nachbarn zu schicken, geht in den meisten Fällen nicht."  Abstand und Umgebung zählen Doch wann gilt eine Beeinträchtigung als wesentlich? Das kommt auf den jeweiligen Fall an, erklärt man bei der R+V. Stehen an der Grundstücksgrenze viele Bäume, fällt eine erhebliche Laubmenge an. Wenn dadurch die Dachrinne regelmäßig verstopft, kann das eine wesentliche Beeinträchtigung sein. "Ein solcher Fall ist jedoch eher die Ausnahme", heißt es weiter. In den meisten Fällen muss der Nachbar das Laub hinnehmen. Wichtig für die Entscheidung sind zudem Abstand und Umgebung. Bäume und Sträucher dürfen beispielsweise nicht zu dicht an der Grundstücksgrenze stehen. Für stark wachsende Gehölze wie Linden, Pappeln oder Rotbuchen gilt vielerorts ein Mindestabstand von vier Metern zum benachbarten Garten. Zudem wird Laub in einer Stadt anders gewertet als auf dem Land: In dicht bebauten Wohngebieten ist es eher ortsüblich und damit zumutbar, dass sich im Herbst die Blätter über Grundstücksgrenzen hinweg verteilen. Ausgleichszahlungen möglich Wenn die Bäume und Sträucher erst vor kurzem - unter Missachtung der landesrechtlichen Abstandsregeln - an der Grundstücksgrenze gepflanzt wurden, können Betroffene unter Umständen Nachbesserung verlangen. Das kann etwa bedeuten, dass überhängende Äste beschnitten oder der Baum ganz beseitigt wird. Allerdings gibt es dafür Fristen, in Nordrhein-Westfalen zum Beispiel beträgt diese sechs Jahre. Bei älteren Bäumen kann es unter Umständen Ausgleichszahlungen für die Belastung geben. Auch eine Entschädigung für die Reinigung einer regelmäßig verstopften Dachrinne ist mitunter möglich. Für stark überhängende Äste gilt unter Umständen das sogenannte Selbsthilferecht. Greift es, darf man die Äste abschneiden.   Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:

Bergsveinnn Birgisson gaf á dögunum út bókina Hlaðan: Þankar til framtíðar. Hann hefur áður gefið út bækurnar Svar við bréfi Helgu, Landslag er aldrei asnalegt, Geirmundar saga heljarskinns svo eitthvað sé nefnt. Hlaðan er eins konar bréf sem hann skrifar til dóttur sinnar á meðan hann endurbyggir hlöðu afa síns á Ströndum. Á sama tíma veltir hann fyrir sér stöðu mannsins í heiminum og hvernig við skiljum okkur sjálf - og þar er það arfleifð húmanismans sem hann sækir mest í og ekki síst þýski 18. Aldar hugsuðurinn Friedrich Schiller. Hann flakkar semsagt milli heimspeki og hlöðugerðar. Þegar líður á bókina þá kemur að hugleiðingum um tæknina og hvernig hún er að breyta mannskilningi okkar - snjalltæki, samfélagsmiðlar og gervigreind. Þarna koma hugmyndafræðingar kísildalsins við sögu: Peter Thiel, René Girard, Marc Andreessen og fleiri.

Wie konnte aus einer kleinen, oft übersehenen jüdischen Bewegung eine der prägenden Weltreligionen entstehen? In dieser Folge haben Moritz und Michi Unterstützung von Jonas Renz, Kirchenhistoriker an der Universität Gießen. Gemeinsam zeichnen sie die Entwicklung des frühen Christentums nach, von der Zeit Jesu über die missionarische Arbeit des Paulus bis hin zur zunehmenden Ausbreitung im Römischen Reich. Sie sprechen über die Vielfalt frühchristlicher Gruppen, die Konflikte mit römischer Autorität, die Herausforderungen durch Verfolgung, innere Uneinigkeit und Konkurrenz durch andere religiöse Strömungen. Außerdem geht es um die Rolle von Konzilien, Briefen und Theologen, die das Christentum allmählich formten, sowie um die entscheidende Wende, als Kaiser Konstantin die neue Religion nicht mehr bekämpfte, sondern förderte. Eine Folge über Anfänge, Umbrüche und den langen Weg von der Randerscheinung zur Staatsreligion.

pWotD Episode 3133: Tom Stoppard Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 240,997 views on Saturday, 29 November 2025 our article of the day is Tom Stoppard.Sir Tom Stoppard (born Tomáš Sträussler, 3 July 1937 – 29 November 2025) was a Czech and English playwright and screenwriter. He wrote for film, radio, stage, and television, finding prominence with plays. His work covered the themes of human rights, censorship, and political freedom, often delving into the deeper philosophical bases of society. Stoppard was a playwright of the National Theatre; one of the most internationally performed dramatists of his generation; and critically compared with William Shakespeare and George Bernard Shaw. He was knighted for his contribution to theatre by Queen Elizabeth II in 1997 and awarded the Order of Merit in 2000. Born in Czechoslovakia, Stoppard left as a Jewish child refugee, fleeing imminent Nazi occupation. He settled with his family in England after the war, in 1946, having spent the previous three years (1943–1946) in a boarding school in Darjeeling in the Indian Himalayas. After being educated at schools in Nottingham and Yorkshire, Stoppard became a journalist, a drama critic and then, in 1960, a playwright.Stoppard's most prominent plays include Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead (1966), Jumpers (1972), Travesties (1974), Night and Day (1978), The Real Thing (1982), Arcadia (1993), The Invention of Love (1997), The Coast of Utopia (2002), Rock 'n' Roll (2006) and Leopoldstadt (2020). He wrote the screenplays for Brazil (1985), Empire of the Sun (1987), The Russia House (1990), Billy Bathgate (1991), Shakespeare in Love (1998), Enigma (2001), and Anna Karenina (2012), as well as the BBC/HBO limited series Parade's End (2013). He directed the film Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead (1990), adapting his own 1966 play as its screenplay, with Gary Oldman and Tim Roth as the leads.Stoppard received numerous awards and honours including an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for Shakespeare In Love, three Laurence Olivier Awards, and five Tony Awards. In 2008, The Daily Telegraph ranked him number 11 in their list of the "100 most powerful people in British culture". It was announced in June 2019 that Stoppard had written a new play, Leopoldstadt, set in the Jewish community of early 20th-century Vienna. The play premiered in January 2020 at Wyndham's Theatre. The play went on to win the Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Play and later the 2023 Tony Award for Best Play.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 03:05 UTC on Sunday, 30 November 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Tom Stoppard on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Ruth.

Mark Lumpkin sits down with Nick Swanson and Alex from Chetu, a technology firm that has spent 25 years helping hotels, operators, and brands navigate digital transformation. Together, they unpack how AI is changing hospitality and what short term rental operators can do right now to stay ahead.Nick and Alex break down what agentic AI actually is, how it is already being used behind the scenes in hotels and restaurants, and why the next wave of tools will feel more like talking to a real person than fighting a phone tree. They also explain how STR hosts can use AI to refresh listings, improve Airbnb ranking, mine historic guest data, streamline pricing, and elevate guest communication without hiring a huge team.They share the story of Chetu's journey from tiny startup to a global company, and why AI is exposing digital weak spots that were papered over by old “transformation” slides.

Kylee and Steven Neil Hauser—longtime hosts and boutique property managers in Southern California and the Palm Springs region—join Jamie to share the remarkable evolution of their business and the surprising realities of running 40+ units from the road.In this episode, they unpack how they went from a rundown Mission Beach duplex to a curated, mid-size management portfolio—without ever aiming to become “big.” Their story is a masterclass in staying lean, staying connected, and building systems that support real freedom… not just more work.

Har Socialdemokraternas medieföretag medvetet vilselett användarna på deras sociala medier-konton? Och blev Tidögänget vänner igen på Harpsund? Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Det S-ägda medieföretaget AiP Media anklagas för att ha vilselett användare genom sociala medier-konton med otydlig avsändare. Partiledaren Magdalena Andersson menar att framgår vem som är avsändare och att det inte går att jämföra med SD:s trollkonton. Förra årets riktade Andersson hård kritik mot just dessa SD-konton. Nu riktar oppositionen svidade kritik mot Socialdemokraterna. Bland annat handlar det om att inlägg kan ha riktats mot barn och ett av AiP:s sociala medier-konton har sampublicerat inlägg med ett annat konto som ska ha gjort andra grovt antisemitiska inlägg. Hur allvarlig är den här krisen för Socialdemokraterna och kan det vara en medveten strategi att vara otydlig med avsändaren?Snart ska Tidögänget ha möte hos Ulf Kristersson i Strängnäs. Men samkvämet kommer tidigare än väntat. I vecka träffades de fyra partiledarna på Harpsund. Är höstens gnissel glömt nu? Åtminstone har Tidögängets partiledare ansträngt sig för att vara kamratliga, bland annat genom gästspel på partikollegornas stämmor.Och, varför blev det tumult när en ståuppkomiker uppträdde på Sverigedemokraternas stämma? Samt, det viktigaste från indikators senaste opinionsundersökning där KD når en ny toppnotering.Medverkande: Helena Gissén och Fredrik Furtenbach, politiska kommentatorer.Programledare: Parisa HöglundProducent: Mattias Dellert

On today's Good Morning Hospitality, Wil Slickers, Jamie Lane, Brandreth Canaley, and Michael Goldin break down Google's latest step into agentic travel planning. This system can build, price, and coordinate full itineraries, yet insists it has "no intention" of becoming an OTA. The crew explores what this means for hotels, short-term rentals, platforms, and anyone competing for consumer discovery and booking flows. Jamie also unveils brand-new data tracking World Cup demand across short-term rentals, including early signals on ADRs, booking pace, and which cities are heating up faster than expected. As the biggest travel event of 2026 approaches, the team looks at how STR markets are shifting in real time and what operators should be preparing for now. Plus, quick shoutouts to two recent fundraises from BoomPop and Localbird before diving into the week's biggest trends shaping hospitality and travel.

Short-term rentals aren't just about cash flow — they're one of the most powerful tax strategies available to W-2 earners and entrepreneurs. In this episode, Lamè Kinikini breaks down how STRs can offset active income, create long-term wealth, and why most investors misunderstand the opportunity. Lamè is the guy behind Elk Ridge Investments and one of the best operators I know in the short-term rental space. He's built a portfolio across 15 states and carved out a niche helping investors use STRs to reduce their tax liability, build equity, and buy properties the right way. We talked about his family's immigrant story, the mindset he built from watching his grandfather chase the American dream, and how door-to-door sales unexpectedly launched him into real estate. Then we got deep into the STR tax loophole, cost segregation, depreciation, and how everyday W-2 earners use these investments to offset active income. If you've ever wondered how the wealthy actually use tax strategy to get ahead — this episode will open your eyes. //CONNECT WITH LAMÈ Instagram: @lamekinikini

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an dara lá is fiche de mhí na Sahmna. Is mise Sibéal Dempsey.Vótáil comhairle slándála na Náisiún Aontaithe i bhfabhar rún a thacaíonn le plean Donald Trump do Gaza. Tá roinnt gnéithe sa phlean, lena n-áirítear bunú Fórsa Cobhsaíochta Idirnáisiúnta, a bhfuil roinnt tíortha gan ainm tar éis tairiscint a bheith páirteach ann. Seachas an Rúis agus an tSín, a staon ón vóta, vótáil na tíortha eile go léir i bhfabhar an rúin. Dhiúltaigh Hamas dó, áfach, iad ag rá go gcruthaíonn sé páirtí eile sa choinbhleacht agus go bhforchuireann sé caomhnóireacht ar Stráice Gaza. Cruthaíodh comhlacht ar a dtugtar an Bord Síochána freisin, a bhfuil sé de chúram air maoirseacht a dhéanamh ar atógáil Gaza agus ar sheachadadh cabhrach daonnúla. Dúirt Trump gur “stairiúil” vóta na Comhairle Slándála agus meastar go mbeidh sé ina chathaoirleach ar an mBord Síochána.Chonacthas long spiaireachta Rúiseach amach ó chósta na hAlban an tseachtain seo, agus í ar a bealach i dtreo uiscí atá faoi smacht na hÉireann, agus geallann an Ríocht Aontaithe freagairt mhíleata dá n-aistreodh sí níos faide ó dheas. Is cosúil go bhfuil an long, ar a dtugtar an Yantar, in ann cur isteach ar cháblaí fomhuirí. Chonacthas an long ag seoladh síos Muir Éireann roimhe seo freisin, nuair a bhí long chabhlaigh agus aerárthach Éireannach á leanúint.
