135. Emergency Episode: What The LA Fires Mean for Airbnb Hosts - Catching Up with Mercedes Sanches & Kaitlyn Aronis

This week I sit down with two LA hosts (and my dear friends) who have been on the ground since the moment the fires broke out last week. You'll remember Mercedes from episode 63 and Kaitlyn from episode 71.

We sat down for a raw conversation about about

1 The state of LA and the housing crisis

2 Why STR and MTR hosts are so needed in times of crisis

3 How hosts can help right now, and what victims need most

4 Price gauging – and how you may accidentally be part of the problem and not even know it!

5 What's next for LA in terms of rebuilding, housing needs, and the 2028 summer olympics.
