Josh Gondelman talks with Caller Joy about turning a spare room into an Airbnb spot and the psychology of gray floors versus a sunny yellow wall.
What You'll Hear:
The Pillow That Was Too Much Pillow: Josh opens with hotel rooms gone wrong, from outlets hidden in closets to pillows the size of a human torso.
Seven Guests, One Percolator: Joy calls in to share how their brand-new Airbnb (built in the room they rebuilt after a house fire) filled up with bookings almost instantly.
Why Everything Is Gray Now: Joy explains how a year and a half of staying in sterile, whitewashed rentals convinced them a sunshine yellow room was the way to go.
