“Welcome to That Ain’t Happenin’—the podcast where vacation dreams get smacked in the face by vacation reality. You start out picturing cocktails by the pool, and end up arguing over whether the hotel smells like feet or the Airbnb comes with free raccoons. The travel agent swears it’s a ‘hidden gem’—yeah, hidden for a reason. And don’t even get me started on traveling with kids… because nothing says ‘relaxing getaway’ like hearing ‘are we there yet?’ before you even leave the driveway. So buckle up, grab your neck pillow, and remember: that dream vacation? Yeah…that ain’t happenin’.”Podcast Theme Music is by artlist.io Find us on Instagram @thatainthappeninpod or email us at [email protected] with your stories that need to be shared!
