BESTIES! 🎅🏻🎁🎄 It’s the most wonderful time of the year... in the middle of summer! ☀️🫧🌊

We're trading in hot cocoa for Dole Whip and bringing the holiday spirit to the Sunshine State in this special Christmas in July Pre-Trip Report from the Disney Vault!

In this festive travel prep chat, we’re talking:
🎁 Our Double Trouble Disney Trip Planning from December 2024 coming fresh out of our Disney Vault
🎅🏻 When, Where, How & Why of the Trip Details
🎄 Plus: We share some initial strategy to when Multi-Pass and Single-Pass made their debut.

Disclaimers:

• The Liberty Bell has officially closed at this time.
• Tiana's Bayou Adventure no longer has a virtual queue.
• We mention our July Besties Family Trip in this episode, and we will actually be under a week out from that trip when this episode and the trip report episodes drop! Stay tuned for those trip episodes coming in August.
• At one hour and 13 minutes, Chelsea shouts - just a fair warning :)

Let’s sleigh the pre-trip jitters and get festive — mid-year style!

🫧🐭 In this debut episode of Banter with your Besties on the Bibbidi Bobbidi Besties Pod, we’re spilling the tea (ahem, Coca Cola Zero, and served in our favorite Disney mugs, of course) on Disney Deep Dives in the first round of our Q&A generated by ChatGPT.

✨⚡️ Expect laughs, chaotic tangents, totally unnecessary (or maybe quite necessary) debates about Disney, podding together and being besties.

🏰💫 Whether you’re a Magic Kingdom regular or just here for the laughs, you’re officially part of our royal inner circle. So grab your Mickey ears and settle in for some unfiltered, unmagical, unapologetically bestie banter!

👑✨ Let the bibbidi bobbidi bonding begin!

🎤🎧 Disclaimer: Apologies for the mic background noise in some areas of the podcast. We were chatting while holding our mics and they were a bit unsteady. Thanks for hanging in there with us!
