Episode Description

On this episode of MTM Travel Shawn and Mark discuss a recent Marriott experience a friend of theirs ran into. Sometimes indifferent service can make or break a stay and sometimes hotels just don't think of the customer's perspective when fixing issues. Something small can often feel much bigger. We also discuss the idea of travel and how memories are more of a deposit for later. How can you convey this to others and how powerful are your travel memories in the future? We also follow up on Shawn's Rivian lease issues, NYC $1 pizza and preview Mark's Rio carnival trip..
