The Billion Dollar Nap: The Rise of Sleep Tourism

Sleep deprivation can lead to hypertension, compromised immunity, stroke, obesity, premature death, and a whole host of other serious maladies. Between 25 and 30 million Americans have insomnia at any given time; no wonder the newest trend in wellness is… “Sleep Tourism”. Really, no really! But what exactly is “Sleep Tourism”? Jason and Peter were determined to find out, so they sought out global hospitality and travel expert Kaushik Vardharajan. And what they discovered was a world filled with A.I. powered beds, smart-sheets, quiet floors, and lots of fascinating hotel secrets you need to know. So, sit back, relax and maybe tonight, you’ll finally be able to get a good night’s sleep… IN THIS EPISODE: A.I. powered beds, smart-sheets and mattress pads. Yes, those are real things. How hotels are capitalizing on our need for sleep. The “Weston Heavenly Bed” instituted a hotel mattress arms race. The difference between traditional and sleep tourist-quality rooms. Quiet floors and the hotels that enforce them. Hotel Secrets Exposed - You will be shocked! “Over Tourism” – It’s a real and destructive issue. The secret to avoiding horrific hotels. Jason explains how he avoids wife-induced hotel injuries. The top movies to fall asleep to. Google-heim: What’s with Jason’s mustache, who the F is Edgar Winter, and the word you shouldn’t use for people affected by albinism. *** FOLLOW KAUSHIK: You can find Kaushik on LinkedIn *** FOLLOW REALLY NO REALLY: www.reallynoreally.com Instagram YouTube TikTok Facebook Threads X See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
