Episodes drop every Tuesday, free to listen to wherever you get your pods.


Break out the bubbly, turn on the jets, and hop into our Hot Tub Time Machine: we’re going back to the origins of the Jacuzzi. The world’s most iconic whirlpool has become a symbol of status and luxury—think Scarface’s bathtub. But its roots are humble, starting with a family of seven Italian immigrant brothers. Over three generations, they pivoted one technology from airplanes to agriculture to the 1st-ever modern hot tub. It’s also the story of overcoming tragedies, and a devoted father trying to save his young son’s life. Find out why family businesses actually end
 why half a pivot is more like a flinch
 and why the Jacuzzi is the best idea yet.


Subscribe to The Best Idea Yet for the untold origin stories of the products you’re obsessed with, and the bold risk takers who brought them to life. https://wondery.com/links/the-best-idea-yet/
