Hey everyone, I'm Erica and I'm Shay and we're two besty moms breaking down topics each week here on our podcast.

We cover everything from pop culture to travel, motherhood, organization, fitness, fashion, food, and so much more.

We're two best friends just chatting about life and we're so excited you're here.

Hey Shay. Hey Erica. Welcome to episode two of the Besty Breakdown.

Oh, I'm so excited to be back. We have our technology working two episodes in a row. Look at us.

Yeah, we're fancy. Fancy, fancy. Okay, so we are so excited to be breaking down October Fest today.

Ooh, we need some German music playing right now, right? I'm assuming John's going to insert German music.

I'm sure you will throughout this episode. I'm sure he will. Thank you, though, for listening to episode one last week.

We got lots and lots of great feedback. So we appreciate all of you listening.

One of our readers, Amy, maybe listener, I should say, said I just love listening to the besty break down.

I'm so glad you girls are back. It's like having a best friend date every Tuesday. Thank you.

Oh, that's sweet. Amy, thank you. Super sweet. And then my aunt sent me and my mom this text after listening.

She said, I'm cracking up. I just started listening and I heard 87 times of communication.

I know. That was super extreme, super extreme. Hey, don't make me count yesterday.

I know. I won't. We're not going to talk about it anymore. It wasn't a one off air. That was like an insane day and it's not the norm.

Oh, your aunt so sweet. She was referenced in episode one too. So her and her cream. Yeah. Well, thank you guys so much for listening.

Make sure you listen not just to us break down October Fest today. Kind of our first timers guide to October Fest.

Listen to the full episode because at the end, we are going to share our random reader questions.

And this week, they include things such as karaoke songs, which I don't know that you and I've talked about this.

So I think this is going to be a fun question. I'm sure it will. I mean, I'm already now thinking like karaoke song is what I think.

Yes. Okay. So if you're new here, she and I and our husbands just got back from October Fest as first timers visiting in Munich and we're going to break it all down.

But first, we have a game. Okay. We do. So about, I don't know, 30 minutes ago, Eric, I went by Eric's house and I wrapped something up and put it in your mailbox and told you to get it out of the mailbox. Please, but don't open it.
