"How to interrogate a billionaire" should be the name of this interview.

[@milesjoseph7500]

I am reading the AirBnB story and I became a fan of Chesky. He understands the grind that is needed to build a company, and he is completely invested in this. 3:54 is a reflection of this, when Kara tells him that she's done 4 Airbnb experiences, and immediately Chesky asks her, "What have you done?". The CEOs are completely committed to getting user feedback so that they can improve their product. They've been doing this since their beginning days living in a small apartment.

[@jameshou]

Brian is smart and his insights are great. Just read the Airbnb book. Major problem with this interview is that the interviewers / hosts are so annoying with disruptive questions, Brian can't focus and give quality answers. These two interviewers have reduced this interview into snippets of views. These guys should just shut up and learn to listen.

[@icebergvishnu]

consistently obnoxious this woman

[@repurposeyou]

Airbnb book?

[@garylau6815]

Is the book name: the Airbnb story? Thanks

[@kartikeya24jha]

Just used AirBnb for my trip to Sri Lanka 🇱🇰. What a phenomenal product

[@Ryan-kf6xu]

Billionaires wear shirts stretched by hangers

[@honewhetstone1732]

Ryan that’s right his shirt looks hideous

[@bigthickandjuicy]

;) Hes wearing the killer uniform Dexter wears haha

[@mopcollector]

I'm dead lol

[@sagechris4742]

Hey, he's keeping it REAL! He's also a designer though, maybe interior design and not clothing? lol

[@wildreams]

He wore a shirt that is 2 sizes too small, hence the shoulder seams didn't end at the right place.

[@HelloBdaily]

"Just the CFO" lol

[@jeremiahwhite2624]

I know right Lol

[@FormTrends]

I had the same thought! 😂

[@Josh-zw1ui]

Arrogant comment by her

[@6toolbaseball]

She’s so arrogant

[@asia-focus]

Yes the “where do you get your inspiration” question was an interesting insight when he mentioned that he “shamelessly” reaches out to peeps and to simply ask mentors for help and not be too proud

[@humpty4205]

20:16 he has so many mentors and has learned so much from each of them.

[@HelloBdaily]

These interviewers are just sickening...

[@asia-focus]

The problem with the woman is she is trying to have a one-to-one conversation with Brian; becuase as he mentions, they were @ dinner before. The woman does not know now how to alter and adapt her style of talking for this public arena..

[@muazothman7416]

An organic interview once in a while is good too

[@vimalcurio]

ikr

[@MattWhittingham]

I think Brian is one of the more engaging CEO / Leaders on Recode.

[@MinhPhan-sf9hk]

The interviewers were so annoying, interupting all the time which break the focus and coherence of the answers from Brian.

[@grantjolly]

Minh Phan Yo seriously. Both of those bastards had me cringing with their interjections and “look at me” monologues.

[@fedsummer90]

Ramen making is ridiculous in L.A according to her Lol.

**** PLEASE LIKE AND SHARE **** It could be your brother, your sister, your father, your mother or another loved one who becomes the next victim of this soulless pack of illegal, immoral, disrespectful, deranged, lying, thieving, cheating Sociopathic company. HOW DO THESE CRETINS LOOK IN A MIRROR OR SLEEP AT NIGHT? Imagine knowingly raking in billions of dollars on the pain and suffering of your fellow human beings. Aside from the proliferation of ongoing rapes, murders, prostitution, brothels, drug trafficking, money laundering, stabbings, beatings, robberies, vandalism and assaults, among others, occurring on a daily basis within this 'so-called' sharing platform, they continue to add to their repertoire. As if the deepest scum in the bog couldn't sink any lower, hundreds of thousands, to the millions of innocent, law-abiding, decent human beings are being (and the numbers swell), evicted from their homes and apartment so that greedy landlords and the even greedier, vile and unconscionable Airbnb's Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia, Nathan Blecharczyk and their so-called board of directors convert and pervert regular rental units to short-term rental units to satisfy their soulless gluttony, greed and immorality. I wouldn't want to be paying this Karma tab when it comes due! From the smallest villages in Italy to the largest metropolis's worldwide Airbnb spreads like an insipid cancer, a frightening and unreal cancer that needs to be eradicated from the face of the Earth. What they did to me was beyond comprehension and I can not sit by idly and let this happen to another human being, the world needs to be made aware of what's really inside the box wrapped up in pretty paper and ribbons and bows. Just because it's wrapped in pretty packaging doesn't mean the contents aren't highly toxic. 'Don't judge a book by it's cover' Wallowing in billions and (censored) you if we ruin your life, your loved one's life or the city you live in for that matter! A pariah on the human race! Too disgusting for words (there are none) to describe what this company and it's Board of Directors are up to on a daily basis! The most arrogant and disgusting abuse of power and privilege imaginable! How do they live with themselves? An unimaginably sick pack of degenerates who don't deserve to breathe the same air as decent human beings! How is this company allowed to operate? As a Canadian, I could never imagine in my wildest nightmares that such filthy pigs actually live and breathe the same air as decent human beings?!

Brian is a Boss!

[@123perish]

“When your creating a market the ceiling of that is unknown” ✔️

[@angelsancheese]

Brian if you are having issues with big cities do what Uber did and threaten to leave the city so that all your hosts and users within the big city protest and vote on government/politics to CHANGE and stop charging Airbnb dumb taxes.

[@BT-kf4kx]

Hi Bryan, love the app so far !

[@Sequaloid]

Bring back the cereal

[@ecempicakci3489]

I wanna ask one question, a real one ! I am an Airbnb host and I am living in Toronto. One of the guest who booked my place for quarantine stopped by Montreal airport border officers and given 2 option , Quarantine in Quebec province or deport. I was his only contact in the Country and he asked my help. I did. I trusted a guy whom I never met before and made a booking $600 for his 14 day quarantine stay in Montreal. This is his 2nd day of stay. I received a message from Airbnb and it says they are not supporting this reservation anymore and cancelled, without giving a reason. I am at home , you are at home , our families at home , Where are you Brian ? where is Airbnb ? Are you busy with making another dramatic video that saying how you care about others health ?

[@nonameneeded5722]

Thank s B!

[@blanket1309]

Others can do what they do. They are trying to do what others do. I see limits to how far they can go before they run out of opportunities to grow.

[@sohelpatel3806]

[@bigthickandjuicy]

"We dont care about him, he's just a CFO" Im guessing she didnt mean to underestimate the duties and responsibility that a CFO has in any company...

[@joeporter4920]

That's not even what she said.

[@MrDivad006]

14:50 burn

[@paquitoperez2116]

It would be nice if Airbnb would align with all the major tourisms actors and remove their fees if the trip is cancelled. It is definitely quite unfair to keep the money of a deal that just couldn't go through. So far, Airbnb is not moving anywhere near such a measure. Is money the only thing they understand? It had to come from the U.S.A. for sure...

[@sheldontan3804]

haha that's where you're wrong kiddo because of airbnb, people are buying non-commercial housing and listing it on airbnb, it causes price of house to go up because of demand now you have to pay more for your basic neccesity, you can choose not to stay in a hotel but can you choose not to stay in a house? kids gonna kids

[@JoeWong81]

That's true but more choice is better than less choice isn't it? (for buyers and renters)

[@MrAshraf1949]

Hotels are ribbing off for too long and Airbnb is the best answer to traveling public.

[@jessedyer469]

@@sheldontan3804 The old talk down to someone, because I think I'm smarter standpoint. So outdated. Thanks for pointing out that airbnb is adding new income streams for people and also driving up the value of equity for home owners. The second use said "kiddo" you had no relevant point.
