Intro: Last week was awesome: Minutes 0 to 5:30 Last week’s episode, #24, was our favorite so far! Check it out if you haven’t yet. Chandra’s mom is doing better and is in physical therapy. Chandra got a haircut that’s too short and which reminds her of Christine Baranski’s hair. We discuss our relationships with hairdressers and how you have to tread lightly if you have long term stylists. Both of us dye our hair at home now. You can listen below! White supremacists and the Dayton and El Paso shootings: Minutes 5:30 to 15 We talk about the terrorist attacks in Dayton and El Paso, and how upsetting it is. Chandra and I don’t watch the news anymore and get most of our news online. I am thinking about moving to Canada if Trump wins reelection. Chandra says that the cruelty is the point. Rosanna Arquette tweeted about how she’s sorry she was born white and privileged. Chandra is biracial and says she’d probably be a Becky if she was white. I mention that I have been a Becky and that it took me a while to recognize that. We talk about listening to communities of color. Beto O’Rourke and other politicians are finally calling Trump out for inciting terrorism while the media is not doing their job. Prince Harry got criticized for getting a pedicure: Minutes 15 to 18 The Sun ran a hit piece on Prince Harry for getting massages and pedicures as a roundabout way to call him henpecked. We talk about pedicures and how both of us hate getting our feet touched. We miss Meghan and there wasn’t a lot of royal news this week. Taylor Swift covers the September issue of Vogue: Minutes 18 to 22:30 Taylor Swift is covering the September issue of Vogue in an 80s jacket with 70s Farrah Fawcett hair. Her interview is a mixed bag as we’ve come to expect from Taylor. The answers were extremely well planned and much of the interview was good and interesting. However Taylor is still playing the victim and not taking responsibility for her part in feuds with Kim and Kanye and Katy Perry. We conclude that Taylor is not canceled but that she’s still a self-obsessed snake. Kylie Jenner’s boyfriend, Travis Scott, filled her foyer with rose petals: Minutes 22:30 to 25 We talk about what a waste is was for Kylie Jenner’s boyfriend, Travis Scott, to fill the foyer of her home with rose petals. I wonder if he did something that he’s trying to make up for. Travis has been rumored to be cheating on Kylie, but we don’t know much about that because Kylie doesn’t air their business, like Khloe does. I tried the pumpkin pit Kat Kats: Minutes 25 to 30 The pumpkin pit Kit Kats were so much worse than I expected! It tasted like a Yankee Candle and just one Kit Kit mini coated my tongue and made me gag for about a half an hour. I got my spin instructor to try one and she only ate half of it and gagged. I admit that I like candy corn. I told another spin instructor that I run Celebitchy and she said she reads us! Chandra once saw someone reading us on her phone. We are usually very vague about what we do for a living. User Question: Which one of us is good at blind items?: Minutes 30 to 32 We got asked by Paula on Twitter which one of us was good at blind items. Both of us are bad at guessing blind items and we don’t trust blind item sites. We do trust Lainey and other insider-type sites which don’t run blind items all the times. Comments of The Week: Minutes 32 to 34:30 My comment of the week is by LilHarriet on the Instagram post about James Middleton finding it easier to talk to his dogs. Chandra’s comment of the week is by BayTampaBay on the story about the Turnip Toff’s code of omerta. We’re on iHeartRadio now if you’d like to check us out there! Note that there are minor issues with thudding noises with my mic this episode. I’m very sorry about that. I tried to take them out where possible, and have ordered a special filter for my microphone so hopefully this won’t happen again. Music credit: Meydan, AA Alto and via Premium Beat

Megan & Kris respond to a negative TripAdvisor review for Disneyland and explore what could have been done differently on their part for a better trip. Worst Disney Trip Ever Here is the TripAdvisor review we're responding to: Worst Trip Ever Long lines which I expected but not good with young children (6 years old) We were told that by buying advance tickets we could skip the long lines to get in. It took 1 hour in the bag search line then another hour in the ticket line. Kids were having meltdowns everywhere. Parents were frustrated. We took autograph books to get character autographs and pictures but lines to get up to see the characters were at least 60-100 people long. Two days there... got two autographs and went on two rides. So awful we just went back to hotel to swim. Fireworks were nice. We watched them from the hotel. Here's what we suggested: Get there before park opening, or "rope drop." You can get so much done in the hours between 8-10am before everyone else gets there, it's crazy! This will also allow you to get through the bag check faster. Choose the days you go wisely. Things are going to be busier during the winter holidays and weekends are going to be the busiest. Use FASTPASS (not MaxPass) to your advantage. It's free to use and you can get a new one every two hours or whenever your current FASTPASS time has passed. Whichever comes first. Also, use Rider Swap to your advantage. Manage your expectations. Be realistic about what you're going to be able to do. We also give some tips on getting through security.

Megan & Kris give their tips on navigating through Disneyland parade traffic. Also, Kit talks about the movie The Lion King, and Teddy talks about why he has a dot of paint on his nose. Navigating through Disneyland Parade Traffic Know your schedule and how a parade might affect it. Be sure to get a show schedule when you enter the park or at any of the shops and look to see if there are any parades happening around the times you might have a restaurant reservation. If there is try to make sure that you're on the correct side of the park before the parade starts. The do have sections that they will allow people to cross during the parade. The easiest place to cross the parade in our opinion would be by the corn dog wagon and Coke Corner. To make things easier with all six of us, Megan wore Roddy, Kit was in the stroller (which Megan was pushing), I had Teddy on my shoulders, and Ginny was holding my hand. That way we had a hold on everyone in our party and didn't get separated. You'll want to allow an extra 20 minutes of travel if you're planning on trying to cross the park during a parade. Disney will often open up backstage passages along Main Street USA to help accommodate heavy traffic, especially after the fireworks. Conversations with Kit Kit talks about what he likes about The Lion King. Teddy also joins us at the end! Join us on Facebook!

Megan & Kris gave a great review of Randy Crane's (from Stories of the Magic Podcast) educational Disneyland tour. They also review their lunch at Earl of Sandwich. Randy Crane's Educational Tour of Disneyland Review We had the wonderful privilege of taking one of Randy's customized Disneyland tours and we had a wonderful experience! A couple days before we met him at the park, we filled out a questionnaire so he could customize his tour specifically for us. He asked us where some of our favorite places around the park are, what we know already, and what we'd like to hear about. We met him at the park just after opening and we went into Disneyland. As we toured the park with Randy, it didn't feel like a traditional tour as one might think, but it was more conversational and less structured. You're basically hanging out at the park with a Disney expert. We experienced his Faith and the Magic Kingdom tour which incorporates Christian faith parallels in with the Disneyland knowledge, he does, however, also offer a non-faith-based Stories and Facts Tour, which is also very good. Throughout the tour, Randy pointed out many things to us that are right out in the open and people pass up all the time as they rush to their favorite attractions. Things like a single light bulb on Main Street that is half red and half white, or how you can tell when you're leaving Frontierland and entering New Orleans Square. All of these details come with very interesting stories behind them, and Randy is an endless fount of Disneyland knowledge! On the faith side of things, Randy shared such stories about how Walt had originally intended there to be a church on Main Street and why it never happened, but there is, in fact, a church that can be seen at the end of Main Street, and he'll tell you exactly where to look. Randy also shared with us an interesting parallel between the story of David and Goliath and the Sleeping Beauty display in Sleeping Beauty's Castle. Very interesting stuff!

Earl of Sandwich Our lunch at Earl of Sandwich was overall pretty tasty. Kris had the Holiday Turkey Sandwich, which had pretty much a Thanksgiving dinner in it! It consisted of turkey, stuffing, gravy, and cranberry sauce. Very tasty! Megan got the broccoli cheese soup which she liked, and the kids got pepperoni pizza bread.

Megan & Kris took a trip to the "Dark Side." We visited Universal Studios Hollywood and had a blast! (Don't tell Mickey Mouse.) Listen as we talk about our first experience there after 20 years and our children's first visit. Trip Review of Universal Studios Hollywood In this trip review of Universal Studios Hollywood, we touch on the following topics: Preparation We pretty much prepared for this the same way we prepare for our Disneyland trips. We packed our lunch and snacks and everything else we thought we'd need. We should have packed a change of clothes for Kit though… Wizarding World of Harry Potter We were in complete awe! This place is amazing and all-encompassing down to the smallest detail. We can see how it's giving The Mouse a run for its money. And teh butterbeer is so delicious! Olivander's Wand Shop Ginny got to participate in this experience and got to have a wand "pick her." We were a little apprehensive when she was singled out since she has a condition called selective mutism, but she did very well and the Wand Maker was very good with her even though she couldn't talk. Back Lot Tram Ride This has changed a lot since we visited last and it's definitely not kid-friendly. The King Kong and Fast & Furious portions were terrifying for our kids, and Kit said, "I never want to go on that again." Animal Actors Show We actually visited this show twice. It was a very fun and educational show involving trained animals. Very family friendly and had some wonderfully humorous moments. We mentioned how Megan's sister, Rachel, trains dogs and actually uses dogs to herd sheep. Check out this video on what she does! It's very interesting. Super Silly Fun Land We mainly visited the playground and water play area which we weren't prepared for. Kit got drenched and we had to figure out what to do with him. Waterworld Show We loved this show, especially Teddy and Kit. It was a great stunt show with action on the water and some fun surprises. Final Thoughts This park isn't really a place for families with young children. There's really not very much that young kids can do, ride-wise, other than the Dumbo-style ride in Super Silly Fun Land. It's better to visit when your kids are a little older. It's more aimed at teens, tweens, and young adults. Our favorite things were the shows we experienced and how they handle their rider swap. In fact, if Disneyland adopted this method, it'd be a lot better for families. Conversations with Kit Kit talks about how he liked the trip to Universal Studios Hollywood. Join us on Facebook!

One of the very first things we hear when we talk to other people about visiting Disneyland is, “That sounds like so much fun, I wish we could go! It’s just so expensive.” After hearing this so many times, we started to look for ways that families could save on a Disneyland trip. We found that while a Disneyland trip will be expensive (but totally worth it), you might be surprised to find that with a little forethought and planning, it can be within your reach! In this short ebook, we’ve grouped our tips into three main categories: tips on saving and collecting extra money for your trip, saving on the trip itself, and ways to save at the parks on food and souvenirs. We even added five bonus tips on some free and inexpensive things you can do at Disneyland! Sign up for our email list (below) and we'll email it right out to you! We'll also let you know when our Guide to Visiting Disneyland with Young Kids is released and keep you up to date on news, contests, and our latest podcast episodes.

Megan & Kris talk about how to maximize your time at Disneyland during a crowded day! Also, we're trying out a new format for our show. Starting with this episode, we're going to be combining the park tips and conversations with Kit into one episode and release those once per week. The reason for this is to attempt to cut back on the amount of work it takes to put out an episode. I talk more about it at the top of the show. If you like this change or have any other suggestions, please drop us a line and let us know! How to Maximize Your Time at Disneyland Have a plan, but be flexible. You don't want to just "wing it" when visiting Disneyland. We each pick our "must do's" for the day and make those our priority. You also want to make sure to be flexible. It may be that somebody's "must do" is closed, or maybe minds are changed. Your plans aren't set in stone, so be prepared to change things up. Start early, stay late Do as much as you can before everyone gets there and after everyone leaves. Try to get to the parks before Rope Drop and/or stay late. If the park opens at 8:00 am, you usually have a few hours before the big crowds arrive to get in as much as you can. We're frequently able to hit five or six attractions before 11. Crowds will usually start thinning too around 10 pm if you can wait them out. Also, consider doing attractions that have long lines in the sun early when it's cooler. Peter Pan, for example, has wait times of 45–50 minutes with a good portion of the queue out in the sun. Don't blame us if you get heat stroke while waiting for Peter Pan. Use FASTPASS Use FASTPASSes on popular attractions like Space Mountain and Indiana Jones. (Try combining them with rider swap, if you have young kids or babies, for more value.) Use mobile apps Use apps like MouseWait and the Disneyland App to gauge wait times and adjust schedule when appropriate. Take it slow during the day Take things slow once the big crowds get there. After all, you've already checked off most of the things on your list in the morning, right? Conversations with Kit Kit talks about The Magic School Bus and a really cool educational kit that he got that helps him learn about the human body. Join us on Facebook!
