Family Trips with the Meyers Brothers

This week on the pod, Seth and Josh are back for the monthly listener episode! They kick things off with some Halloween planning, fall traditions, and football talk before hearing from listeners with some truly spooky and scary family trip stories. One listener shares a tale of a seemingly haunted apartment, complete with mysterious hands grabbing ankles and a ghostly woman on a bench. Another recalls a 2011 Halloween cruise to nowhere that turned into an unexpected adventure during a nor’easter, while a third shares two North Carolina camping trips gone wrong, including a baby copperhead bite and an antivenom scare!
