[FAIRBnB is the new competitor to Airbnb.](https://fairbnb.coop/) It promises to be socially responsible to communities as well and renters and home owners.

- The Island of Capri is declaring itself a "plastics free" area and threatening to fine tourists who violate the tough new law. Will this trend spread to other environmentally sensitive tourism areas? Mark says the answer is a definite yes.
- The second half of the show features [an interview with Gary Gerould](https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=10156568456374026). The only play-by-play voice the Sacramento Kings have ever had (34 years) talks to us about life on the road in the NBA, his favorite cities, hotels, and restaurants; and even shares the story of how he came to be the Kings' announcer. It is one of our favorite interviews ever.
