Since the new Chip N’ Dale Rescue Rangers movie came out on Disney+ this past weekend, we figured we’d talk all about our second favorite rodent duo (after Mickey and Minnie, of course).

Chip n’ Dale have had an interesting ride from being antagonizing side characters to Pluto and Donald Duck in the 1940s all the way to headlining their own TV series in the late 80s. They’ve stayed mostly the same, but have also had some interesting facelifts (or CGI surgeries) along the way. Tune in to find out more about these two mischievous brothers/friends.
