We're recapping our amazing trip to the Bahamas with two of our boys — just the four of us this time. The other five kids stayed home (and shockingly… didn't even complain about it). We put on the swimsuits, got our hair wet, and made core memories. It was the kind of trip that reminded us what really matters. And here's your reminder: wear the dang suit. Get in the water. Splash around. Be in the memories. Your kids won't remember what you looked like — they'll remember that you were there.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

In this episode, Jess and Megan walk us through their recent family getaways to two standout Hyatt properties in the American Southwest: the Grand Hyatt Scottsdale in Arizona and the Hyatt Regency Tamaya in New Mexico. From flights on Southwest® using Companion Passes to family-friendly resort and cultural activities, they break down exactly how they booked, what they loved, and what they'd do differently next time. Grand Hyatt Scottsdale: Renovated Luxury with Resort Vibes Fresh off a huge renovation and rebrand, the former Hyatt Regency Scottsdale is now the Grand Hyatt Scottsdale—and Jess and Megan each had three-night family stays to check it out. The resort has ten pools, including a three-story water slide, a sandy beach area for little kids, and a separate adults-only pool. There's even a rock-climbing wall, putting green, and weekly birds of prey show. The club lounge, while small, included complimentary breakfast, drinks, appetizers, and desserts, and Jess made good use of the free happy hour drinks by taking them poolside. Their biggest warning? Avoid Thursday–Saturday stays if you're sensitive to noise—live music in the lobby those nights is extremely loud and carries to guest rooms. Jess called it the biggest damper on an otherwise enjoyable trip. Hyatt Regency Tamaya: Hidden Gem Near Albuquerque Megan also shares her family's stay at Hyatt Regency Tamaya, located on the Santa Ana Pueblo in New Mexico. Recently renovated and still a Category 4 Hyatt, it offered unique Native American cultural experiences, incredible mountain views, and tons of free family activities. Megan's family enjoyed nightly s'mores by the fire pit, cultural storytelling sessions, hands-on artisan demos, and a pueblo bread tasting. There are multiple pools, bike rentals, and even a horseback riding stable on-site.  This resort is just 30 minutes from Albuquerque's airport and offers easy access to Santa Fe and Petrified Forest National Park not too far away—making it perfect for road trip loops or a more relaxing extended stay. If you're dreaming of a warm-weather escape filled with adventure, learning, and luxury—without the luxury price tag—this episode is packed with inspiration and real-world tips for traveling the Southwest on points. Hit play and start planning your family's next trip!   Links: Webinar: How to Get Your Next Vacation for Nearly Free Grand Hyatt Scottsdale: https://www.hyatt.com/grand-hyatt/en-US/scott-grand-hyatt-scottsdale-resort Hyatt Regency Tamaya: https://www.hyatt.com/hyatt-regency/en-US/tamay-hyatt-regency-tamaya-resort-and-spa Links For All Things Travel Mom Squad: stan.store/travelmomsquad Episode Minute By Minute: 00:30 – Intro + overview 01:00 – Flights on Southwest® + Companion Pass 03:00 – Costco car rental + tips for family travel 08:00 – Grand Hyatt Scottsdale: room types, points cost, parking fees 13:00 – Club lounge pros/cons 18:00 – Pool features, beach area, adult-only spaces, kids' activities 23:00 – Live music noise issues + what to know before booking 31:00 –  Hyatt Regency Tamaya 34:00 – Hotel background, cultural ties, and points cost 38:00 – Pools, spa, activities, and Guest of Honor details 41:00 – Cultural experiences 44:00 – Horseback riding + why this property is a favorite for families

Mike Birbiglia is a master storyteller, acclaimed comedian, and the creative force behind Netflix specials including "The Old Man & the Pool" and his newest, "The Good Life." This conversation explores the quiet architecture of story—how to shape it, live it, and share it in a way that matters. We talk about finding empathy for the parents who couldn't fully show up, embracing feedback without losing your voice, and why the creative process might just be as simple and profound as “letting your brain go for a walk.” It's not about performance. It's about presence. Mike illuminates our shared humanity. This conversation is medicine for our divided times. Enjoy!

Tucked deep in Ohio's Hocking Hills, there's a pond no map dares to name. Locals call it the Death Hole. Others whisper of the Devil's Pool. But to the guests of Blue Eddy Bed & Breakfast, it's just another curious feature of the woods… until it calls them closer. In this original tale, we explore the folklore behind Ohio's most mysterious body of water—and the unsettling story of a man who built his life beside it. He warns his guests not to go near. Not because he's hiding something… but because he knows exactly what the pond wants. Once it gets a taste… it always wants more.

The Blind Rage Podcast is making a splash with THE POOL a.k.a. SWIMMING POOL (2001), the rarely-seen slasher that dared to ask, “What if we trapped a bunch of rich, horny European teens in an Olympic-sized swimming pool and let a masked psycho go to town?” Oh, and did we mention a baby-faced James McAvoy is here to steal scenes (and maybe your heart)? Graduation should be a time for celebration, but for this group of private school brats, it's more of a bloodbath. Someone in a weird mask has a serious grudge, and they're taking their rage out with a variety of sharp objects. The body count rises, the plot makes… choices, and we question the decision to let this much chlorine mix with this much bad behavior.
