Summary

Josh is joined by a very special guest for this month’s listener episode of Family Trips with the Myers Brothers...his dad, Larry Meyers! The two chat about Larry’s recent cruise through Morocco, Spain, and Portugal, a stressful lost-passport situation in Porto, podcasting’s shift toward video, and of course, the family’s beloved Old English Sheepdog, Albert VI. They also hear some incredible listener stories, including one listener hitchhiking from the Netherlands to Paris for New Year’s Eve in the late ’90s, another recalling a childhood trip to Canobie Lake Park while covered in chickenpox, and a chaotic family return home from Mexico involving missed connections, separated relatives, forgotten car keys, and airline scheming. Plus, Larry reflects on coaching Josh and Seth’s Little League teams, umpiring for years, and answers listener questions about Pittsburgh restaurants and Steelers food traditions.
