Send us Fan MailVacation Pet Peeves That Drive Us CrazySpecial episode alert: Asher is joined in-studio by his son Gavi! Before getting into the main event, the guys catch up on end-of-summer chaos: Dave's house felt eerily quiet with his family away at Camp Kaylie for the month (he may or may not have kept score during ESPN Jeopardy), and he surprised his daughters with a fully renovated shared bedroom, split into two separate rooms, managed top to bottom by friend of the show Tzvi Goldgrab while the family was away. Asher is off to Niagara Falls for the family's first real road trip, with a Shabbos stop in Monroe along the way.Then it's time for the main event: an ode to the beloved School of Mock podcast, done mock-draft style. Jon, Dave, and Asher each draft their top vacation pet peeves, and the results are equal parts hilarious and painfully relatable. Kids throwing up in the car. The mysterious ten-minutes-before-you-get-home meltdown. Vacations that are somehow busier than real life. Kids who refuse to carry a single bag into the house. Resort fees. And a uniquely Jewish entry: the vacation Mincha guy who insists everyone daven together, whether you want to or not.Plus: Dave's unexpected Buddhist monk era, an incident involving an unbuttoned shirt at a bar mitzvah, Asher's stance on GPS-checking Mincha compass guys, and Jon's surprisingly controversial pet peeve about anticipating the school year a little too much.Question of the Week: What are you most looking forward to as summer winds down?📩 Email us your own vacation pet peeves at [email protected], or better yet, join the WhatsApp community and tell us there.📱 @carpoolguyspod🔗 linktr.ee/carpoolguyspod0:30 — Welcome Back, Featuring Special Guest Gavi1:35 — Happy Birthday, Jon!3:10 — Round the Horn: Dave's Quiet House While the Family Was at Camp Kaylie8:26 — Jon's Pet Peeve Preview: School Supply Season18:45 — The Fake Potty and the Portable Toilet Debate19:54 — Intro to the Vacation Pet Peeve Mock Draft, Ode to School of Mock21:16 — Draft Order Set: Jon Leads Off for His Birthday55:56 — Question of the Week: What Are You Most Looking Forward To?Please rate and review The Carpool Guys!You can email us at [email protected] us on Instagram @carpoolguyspodSend us a question, a comment, birthday wish, shoutout, or anything else fun and positive, and maybe we'll feature your addition on the next episode of The Carpool Guys Podcast!
