| Post-Trip Report: Sav & Piff Celebrate Piff’s Birthday (August 2024) | 23 Sep 2024 | 01:02:34 | |
Piff is back from her birthday trip with bestie, sister-in-law, and her podcast co-host Sav, and is ready to share all the details. This trip had some highs and lows. Mostly highs, but as you’ll hear, there was some debacle with their late night Mears journey from MCO to All-Star Movies. In the end, Piff made it home with a new lightsaber in hand and a touch of sadness that the birthday fun was over. For this year at least!
