Family Trips with the Meyers Brothers

This week on the pod, Seth and Josh welcome back Will Forte (who's currently vacationing with Seth's family...without Seth). Will shares stories from his extensive travels, including annual Forte family reunions in Colorado, a close encounter with a bear, a teenage trip to the Grand Canyon, and work trips around the world. He also opens up about being diagnosed with OCD, recounts a dramatic horseback riding mishap, tells the unlikely story of how a 1996 road trip sparked a decades-long friendship with Tony Orlando, and wraps up with a speed round of travel favorites.
