Visiting Universal Studios In California: A Month In America Part 3 – Bakersfield, Los Angeles, Harry Potter, Studio Tour And Medieval Times

Genuine Chit-Chat

Mike & Megan were in America for a month and recorded numerous podcasts while out there, talking about their experiences in Vegas, Yosemite, Bakersfield, Orlando with theme parks and more! Mike rambles in the intro until around 4 minutes 30, so skip ahead if you want to get right into the conversation!

In this release, M&M talk about the end of their second week in the USA and the start of their third, where they stayed in Bakersfield for a few days with friends of the podcast Chris & Alyse Braaten, eating plenty of tasty food and going to some cool local places, the duo then left the Braatens and went to LA, to go to Universal Studios (which they speak about at length) before finishing off LA with a meal with another friend of the pod; Melissa Humphreys, before staying in a dodgy motel, flying to Florida, meeting Tony Farina and going to the Medieval Times experience!

Chris Braaten was on episodes 131 and 152 of Genuine Chit-Chat!
Tony was also mentioned, he & Mike have done several collaborations together, but most recently he was on episodes 219, 222 and 237 of GCC.
