Welcome to the new podcast “Jasmine & Michael’s Disney Tips”. Just kidding. This week, though, Jasmine & Michael do spend a good chunk talking about the place that Walt built, thanks to the Wheel of Topics. Michael has birds on his bird brain and also opens up about his fear of cruises. Jasmine brings us some good housing news and introduces a new segment to help us cool down and prepare for the week. Just like the Good Ship Lollipop, we’re all-inclusive, so join us on the shuffleboard deck for some shrimp cocktail, Negronis, and Pleasant Conversations.
