Checking In with Anthony & Glenn

Glenn and Anthony take a look at some hospitality headlines and answer your questions live on air.

Day 2 of Glenn and Anthony's trip to lower Manhattan. Today they are the Mint House which combines apartment style living into hotels into a category they're calling residential hospitality. We hear from hotel industry veteran Paul Sacco, CDO, and Elizabeth Herzberg, VP Development, why this break from the traditional hotel layout makes sense for travelers, both on short visits and for extended stays.

Glenn and Anthony are back on the road for the first of two shows from Manhattan. They sit down with Justin Kellerman, GM of the Beekman Hotel to talk about this hotel's amazing history, creating a modern experience in an historic building, how they stayed strong during the past two years and how they're ready to stand out in the Financial District of Manhattan.

Dean Schreiber, CEO of Oakwood, reveals the behind the scenes business of serviced apartments. Oakwood has more than 80 building across Asia, USA and elsewhere. Glenn and Anthony and Dean explore how this business directly relates to traditional hotels and what hoteliers can learn from this sector of our business.

Industry expert and author Sean Worker returns for a vibrant discussion on the state of adaption and innovation in hospitality. We also discuss The Adapters, which Glenn helped write.

On March 14, 2020 we first introduced you to Dr. Ronald Primas. It was the dawn of the covid crisis. He's also the guy hotels go to when guests are sick. Now we catch up with him as the crisis abates and learn how he managed the crisis and what he learned.

It's another opportunity for YOU to get involved with the show. Viewers have control, put your questions in the comments for Anthony and Glenn to answer on air.
