| 9/1/26 | STR Rental Data with Sally from Key Data | Luke Carl is joined by Sally from Key Data to break down the current state of the short-term rental market and what the data says about the months ahead. They discuss how the unusual timing of Labor Day is shifting demand between August and September, why hosts shouldn't automatically slash rates when calendars look empty, and how understanding guest booking patterns, seasonality, and market data can lead to better pricing decisions. Sally also explains how metrics like RevPAR can help operators balance occupancy and rates, while emphasizing the importance of mystery shopping, monitoring cancellations, and adapting strategies for different types of last-minute and advance-booking guests.

| 8/25/26 | Don't Let Anyone Tell You How Much it Will Make | Luke Carl discusses why investors should never rely on anyone to guarantee how much a real estate property will make, using the controversy surrounding Grant Cardone's real estate investments as a jumping-off point. Luke explains that while investors can make educated estimates using available data, there are too many variables—including market changes, interest rates, operating expenses, and an owner's own effort—to know a property's actual performance until it has been owned and operated for a meaningful period of time. He emphasizes that The Short Term Shop will never promise a specific revenue figure for a property and encourages investors to do their own homework, be conservative, and understand the risks before buying.

| 8/18/26 | Pricelabs AI Connection with Richie | On this week's episode of Short Term Rental Management, Luke Carl is joined by Richie Khandelwal, one of the founders of PriceLabs, to explore how the platform has evolved from manually entering thousands of nightly rates to becoming a powerful revenue management tool used by more than 700,000 homes worldwide. They discuss PriceLabs’ Listing Optimizer and its new AI integration, which allows hosts and property managers to connect PriceLabs with AI tools and use natural-language prompts to find data, analyze performance, and even take actions like adjusting rates or seasonal profiles. Richie emphasizes that AI can dramatically reduce the time spent managing pricing and portfolio data, but users should always verify its work and treat it like a highly capable intern rather than blindly trusting every answer.

| 8/11/26 | I'm No Longer Asking for Reviews | Luke Carl questions whether hosts have become too focused on asking guests for five-star reviews, arguing that constantly requesting feedback can come across as desperate and may even encourage negative responses. Using Disney's customer service as an example, he explains why delivering an exceptional guest experience should take priority over chasing reviews, and suggests that hosts be more selective about when they ask for feedback. Luke also encourages property managers to trust that genuine hospitality, thoughtful service, and authentic communication will naturally inspire guests to leave positive reviews without repeated reminders.

| 8/4/26 | Reviews After 10 Years | Luke Carl explains why bad guest reviews are one of the most valuable tools for improving a short-term rental business, arguing that even unfair criticism often contains a lesson worth addressing. He discusses the importance of separating legitimate feedback from unreasonable expectations, reminds hosts that vacation rentals are homes—not hotels—and encourages property managers to use reviews as motivation to refine operations, strengthen the guest experience, and continually improve. Luke also reflects on how years in the business have taught him to respond with professionalism, focus on what he can control, and treat every review as an opportunity for growth.

| 7/28/26 | Killing it in Killington | Luke Carl is joined by Holly from Killington Mountain Homes to discuss how she leveraged her background in the tech industry to build a high-performing short-term rental management company in Vermont. Holly shares how investing heavily in systems, staff training, in-house laundry operations, and owner communication has helped her properties consistently outperform the market, while explaining why genuine care, operational consistency, and a strong guest experience are the foundation for long-term success. The conversation also explores scaling a property management business, overcoming the challenges of a seasonal market, and building a brand that owners and guests can trust.
