This episode, we're once again joined by Allison's fiancé Mike (with the Mullet) to talk about merchandise at the parks. We asked listeners what they love to collect and what will most convince them to buy merchandise, and boy did you all have a lot to say! We also talk about some trip recaps, the new YouTube channel and Allison's vlogging, our own collections, and making fun of Mike for him saying he's "not a big merch person."

Bryant and Allison are both back from their big Europe trips, and there is so much to talk about!!
