Epcot: The United Nations of Pour Decisions. · The Worst: Beyond the Magic

• 0:00
  What's the worst decision you can make in Epcot?
• 0:02
  Uh starting in Mexico.
• 0:04
  Wrong.
• 0:04
  Starting in Mexico and saying we'll just have one.
• 0:07
  Uh today we're ranking every country in Epcot by our various scientific meter, which is the worst decision score.
• 0:15
  Because some pavilions offer culture.
• 0:16
  And some pavilions offer life lessons.
• 0:18
  Usually the expensive kind.
• 0:20
  Welcome back.
• 0:21
  This is the worst beyond the magic.
• 0:26
  Welcome back to the worst.
• 0:28
  Epcot operates under the same rules as an airport.
• 0:30
  Once you're inside, world showcase, time is meaningless.
• 0:33
  It's 10:30 a.m.
• 0:34
  Margarita.
• 0:35
  Noon, sake.
• 0:36
  2 p.m.
• 0:37
  German beer.
• 0:38
  4 p.m.
• 0:39
  French champagne.
• 0:40
  Nobody knows what day it is, and nobody asks questions.
• 0:43
  The difference is that the airport you're trying to get somewhere.
• 0:46
  At Epcot, you're walking in a circle for six hours and paying$14 a drink to end up exactly where you started.
• 0:54
  Yeah, it's pretty much like an airport.
• 0:56
  So you what you what you see is you know business dads are walking around double fisting IPAs, grandma's crushing roses, Towers is asleep in a stroller, or parents try to mobile order another round.
• 1:06
  It's about as epcod as you can get.
• 1:08
  Yeah.
• 1:09
  Uh last year, last week we ranked all the rides at this park.
• 1:12
  This work we're ranking countries, food, the drinks, the terrible decisions that are made after the drinks.
• 1:17
  Yes.
• 1:19
  All right.
• 1:20
  Are we ready to get started, Pete?
• 1:21
  Yeah, let's do this.
• 1:23
  Let's get the people what they want.
• 1:24
  All right.
• 1:25
  All right.
• 1:25
  Here's the first part.
• 1:26
  Everybody's got this on their mind.
• 1:28
  Mexico first or Canada first?
• 1:31
  Where are we starting?
• 1:32
  Where are we starting?
• 1:34
  This is a debate.
• 1:35
  This goes time, like time goes on, like there's never a real answer.
• 1:39
  Okay.
• 1:41
  If you're starting to drink around the world, the traditional answer is Mexico.
• 1:47
  It kills me to say that because it punishes myself.
• 1:52
  But it kills me to say that.
• 1:53
  But that is the traditional way to start is to start in Mexico.
• 1:57
  So what happens when you start in Mexico?
• 2:02
  I love this story.
• 2:02
  I hear it every time.
• 2:03
  I want to hear it again.
• 2:04
  It's not, it's not a smart decision.
• 2:07
  I stay in Mexico, Pete.
• 2:09
  Once you go to Mexico, you stay in Mexico and you don't leave.
• 2:12
  You end up draped across what the floor or the table or the chair, the booth, whatever it is, face covered in guacamole and having a great time.
• 2:21
  I love it.
• 2:22
  I love it.
• 2:22
  Okay, there is a lot to Mexico that makes you want to stay there.
• 2:26
  I mean, the margaritas are great.
• 2:27
  Uh, inside the pyramid is great.
• 2:29
  La Cava del Tequila, which we talked about last week, also great.
• 2:34
  All right.
• 2:34
  So what's the Mexican merch that's there?
• 2:37
  I think the hot drink, the hot drink to order there is, of course, the uh avocado margarita.
• 2:42
  I'm sorry.
• 2:43
  I don't want an avocado in my margarita.
• 2:45
  I like avocados.
• 2:46
  I like margaritas.
• 2:48
  I don't want to put the two of them together.
• 2:49
  I don't take as a lot of people are gonna agree disagree with you.
• 2:53
  Yeah, I don't.
• 2:54
  I'm sorry.
• 2:55
  If those little fish that listened to us drank, they would probably send hate mail to you right now for this episode.
• 3:02
  They're swimming in beer or taking.
• 3:04
  I think starting in Mexico is like betting your mortgage on the first hand of blackjack.
• 3:08
  It's a risk, man.
• 3:10
  Bad decision.
• 3:10
  All right, all right.
• 3:11
  So let's go to the other half.
• 3:12
  This is the other half of the equation, okay?
• 3:14
  This is probably the smarter half of the equation.
• 3:17
  Team Canada, eh?
• 3:19
  Pros and cons.
• 3:20
  All right, we talked about the cons.
• 3:21
  I'm sorry, we talked about the pros.
• 3:23
  And Canada, we're gonna ease into the day.
• 3:25
  We're gonna slowly build momentum.
• 3:27
  We're gonna enjoy the lager.
• 3:28
  We're gonna go see the little tiny the movie they have there.
• 3:32
  We're gonna build momentum, take our time, enjoy one beer, right?
• 3:36
  Enjoy the atmosphere, maybe get some poutine, okay?
• 3:40
  And uh and then save the heavy hitters for later on.
• 3:42
  All right.
• 3:43
  This is more my style.
• 3:44
  This is more my style.
• 3:46
  I I mean, I don't disagree with you.
• 3:47
  It doesn't feel exciting.
• 3:49
  I don't want to start my day with a little bats blue ribbon.
• 3:52
  You know, it's not the traditional route, and some Disney adults would call it blasphemy.
• 3:56
  Those Disney day drinkers, I I think they would actually, you know, the day drinkers, I think they're just excited to drink, so they don't care which section we go to.
• 4:04
  All right, so so starting in Canada is the responsible choice.
• 4:07
  The problem is we're doing an episode called The Worst Decision.
• 4:11
  Okay, so Mexico it is.
• 4:14
  So what are we doing?
• 4:16
  We're starting to Mexico.
• 4:18
  Team Mexico, right?
• 4:19
  All right.
• 4:20
  For today's rankings, we're going the traditional route.
• 4:23
  All right, so we're making the worst possible decisions immediately.
• 4:25
  That sounds on brand for us.
• 4:27
  That's our style.
• 4:28
  That's 100% our style.
• 4:29
  Let's go.
• 4:30
  Our worst decision score out of Mexico.
• 4:31
  This is one out of 10, 10 being the worst decision score.
• 4:34
  It's a 10.
• 4:35
  I'm sorry, but from the get-go, it's a it's a 10.
• 4:39
  Folks, please listen.
• 4:40
  This is your PSA for today.
• 4:42
  Please, if you start there, just take it easy.
• 4:45
  Just take it.
• 4:45
  Don't be cranking uh tequila shots back and forth.
• 4:48
  Take it, take it one uh Marguerite at at the uh at a time, uh, and enjoy some the choice of guacamole and uh in the atmosphere.
• 4:58
  But just uh just this started slow.
• 5:00
  I'm sorry.
• 5:01
  Yeah, let me throw this out there.
• 5:02
  Um, Disney does not approve of the drinking around the world.
• 5:07
  Disney does not approve of anyone trying to climb the pyramid.
• 5:11
  So take all the fun out of it.
• 5:13
  From from my Sergeant Major, a uh safety brief.
• 5:17
  Please drink responsible.
• 5:19
  Now that we've said it, let's carry on.
• 5:22
  Yeah, I think uh, you know, we you talked about the avocado, they have a bunch of different margaritas there.
• 5:28
  Um, they have some beers.
• 5:29
  Um, that tequila cave atmosphere.
• 5:32
  I I know a lot of people talk about um La Cava del Tequila, the shirts.
• 5:37
  Um, there's one of the best lounges.
• 5:39
  Problem is it's just short on um space tables, short on space to sit, you know.
• 5:44
  There's like a whole seven tables in there.
• 5:46
  Yeah, but be responsible, get your drink, drink it fast, but move on.
• 5:52
  Um if you if you want to, if you don't want if you do walk into the pavilion, which I highly recommend you do and look at all the merch.
• 5:58
  Um, maybe after you go to La Cava del Tequila, you check out three caballeros and see some drunk chickens on the ride.
• 6:05
  Um if you don't want to do all that, stay outside.
• 6:08
  And there's a margarita cart just outside the pavilion, just outside the um the pyramid itself.
• 6:14
  They don't have all the same things as inside, but they do have a lot of things there.
• 6:18
  So save yourself, save yourself standing in line, uh, save yourself being around shoulder to shoulder people.
• 6:24
  Just get your drink outside and enjoy the atmosphere outside.
• 6:27
  But of course, you're always welcome to go inside as well.
• 6:29
  But if you don't like a lot of people, your outside may be your boat of choice.
• 6:33
  It's all right.
• 6:33
  We also have a famous uh margarita flight that's in there.
• 6:36
  Uh, and of course, uh the atmosphere like Pete's talking about inside the tequila cave itself.
• 6:41
  It's it's it's a blast.
• 6:42
  It's a great atmosphere.
• 6:43
  Music's great.
• 6:44
  Sometimes they have a mariachi band that's going on playing out just outside the pavilion itself.
• 6:49
  Um, so it's it's a blast to start in.
• 6:51
  And don't don't sleep on the food.
• 6:52
  Uh the tacos de barbaroa are really good.
• 6:55
  Um, the quesa borea, it's uh depending on which festival are there, also really good.
• 7:00
  Um, so make sure you're eating with your drinking.
• 7:02
  I want to give you a hot uh take at the beginning, too.
• 7:04
  The uh the internet makes it sound like the goal is to drink 11 drinks to get you around the world.
• 7:09
  And and you know, you can get the little tattoo and you can try to follow that.
• 7:13
  But the the really pro tip is if you're going with friends, is to get those drinks, but split the drinks as you're going.
• 7:19
  And that way, maybe if you make it back around to Mexico at night, you won't want to climb the tower.
• 7:26
  All right.
• 7:27
  Um, that's a good idea.
• 7:28
  Or uh maybe go one every other, right?
• 7:31
  One every other.
• 7:32
  Or share or share the drinks.
• 7:34
  Okay.
• 7:34
  That's the more responsible thing to do.
• 7:37
  Are Pete and I responsible?
• 7:38
  No.
• 7:38
  Absolutely.
• 7:39
  That's why we're that's why we're here.
• 7:40
  That's why we're here hosting this podcast.
• 7:43
  All right.
• 7:43
  So I think we've we've got our drinks in Mexico.
• 7:46
  We're moving on to our next country.
• 7:47
  So we're on country number two.
• 7:49
  Pete, where are we going?
• 7:50
  We're going to Norway.
• 7:51
  Norway.
• 7:53
  Now, you and your wife have some experience, and you got nor Norwegian route routes.
• 7:57
  So uh kick us off.
• 7:58
  What's what's our decision score on this one?
• 8:02
  Not terrible.
• 8:03
  Uh, the worst decision score is a six out of ten here.
• 8:06
  So not as bad as a ten out of ten as Mexico, but it's more of an ease in than Canada, it's more of an ease in than Mexico.
• 8:12
  So six out of ten is our score here.
• 8:14
  Um, it's inspired by real Norwegian villages and Stave Church.
• 8:18
  There's a Stave Church there.
• 8:19
  And if you walk into the Stab Church, there's a lot of really cool history about uh the uh previous um uh about uh Vikings and whatnot in inside the Stab Church.
• 8:31
  Uh the best eat here uh inside uh the bakery there is a school bread, which is very good.
• 8:37
  Um and then Lefsa, which my father-in-law actually makes by hand when he's here for Christmas.
• 8:43
  I think his is better than what they sell there, but it is traditional lefsa.
• 8:47
  Lefsa is more like a like a tortilla with some brown sugar in it and butter in it, rolled up.
• 8:51
  It's it's pretty good.
• 8:52
  It's pretty good.
• 8:53
  I at least when my father-in-law makes it here, it's pretty good.
• 8:56
  Um, I've actually had Disney's too, and I think Arthur's is better.
• 9:00
  Um, the Viking coffee.
• 9:03
  So Viking coffee is really nothing more than Viking regular coffee, like black coffee with a little bit of cream in it.
• 9:09
  Um, and then of course, whatever alcohol that they have that they're serving at the time, whether it be a uh whiskey or um um whatever else they put inside of it, but it's really not a whole lot of difference to that in an Irish coffee.
• 9:22
  They just put the Viking word in front of it.
• 9:25
  Nice.
• 9:26
  I know parents exit frozen immediately start searching for their emotional support beverages.
• 9:31
  So that's where they end up with the Viking coffee.
• 9:33
  Right, right.
• 9:34
  I think, especially early in the morning, as we're talking roofdrop strategy, you're leaving frozen, go get your Viking coffee right next door.
• 9:40
  Not a bad idea.
• 9:42
  Yeah, I feel like we should mention too, um, keep throwing these random facts in there.
• 9:46
  You do not have to drink around the world.
• 9:48
  They uh each each of the um the countries or the pavilions have like candies or treats or chips or you know, some kind of snack.
• 9:57
  So you could snack around the world too, or um alternate, like you said.
• 10:01
  We'll do a drink at one and then you know, get some uh candy at the next one, and then a drink and candy.
• 10:06
  Um really good chance to you know try to be responsible.
• 10:10
  I'm trying to get that Disney sponsorship here.
• 10:13
  That's good, Pete.
• 10:14
  That's a good plug right there.
• 10:16
  All right.
• 10:16
  So we're moving on.
• 10:17
  We got a Viking uh horn hats on and crowns.
• 10:21
  Um, we went to the Stab Church.
• 10:23
  Uh we saw the sword.
• 10:25
  Where are we going now?
• 10:26
  We're going to China.
• 10:28
  I uh the decision score for China is nine out of ten.
• 10:32
  Um, you wouldn't think it was as uh dangerous as it is, but it is.
• 10:35
  Um, you know, the temple um of Haven replica is one of the most accurate structures in the world showcase.
• 10:42
  They put a lot of effort into that.
• 10:44
  Um I give the best eats, the dumplings at the festivals are really, really great.
• 10:49
  Um, they've got quick service entrees there.
• 10:52
  They got some really great Chinese food, and you can sit outside in the shade there too.
• 10:55
  The pavilion itself, it's beautiful.
• 10:57
  Um, but the uh tipsy ducks in love is your drink of choice to go there.
• 11:04
  So if you're looking for an uh for a drink, tipsy ducks in love, uh, you're gonna love it.
• 11:09
  And so I'm guessing the people drinking them usually aren't very tipsy for very long.
• 11:14
  They go from tipsy to smashed, right?
• 11:17
  Yeah, yeah.
• 11:17
  That's yeah, with a score out of nine out of ten, I think that's what happens.
• 11:21
  I think that's where the danger comes from because those drinks taste too good.
• 11:23
  And if you get more than one, you're like, you're in trouble.
• 11:26
  You might be more in love than tipsy.
• 11:29
  I love you, man.
• 11:30
  I love you too, Pete.
• 11:33
  All right.
• 11:33
  Um, moving on to Germany.
• 11:36
  Germany's one of my favorites.
• 11:37
  My best Germany accent.
• 11:39
  Have you ever been inside there and eaten at the buffet and watched the show?
• 11:42
  I know we peeked our heads in there before.
• 11:44
  I have never done that.
• 11:45
  I thought I was gonna get you with a little uh secret thing, but you got me with something.
• 11:49
  Oh sorry, I beat you to it.
• 11:51
  I beat you to it.
• 11:52
  Yeah, um, they have a wonderful restaurant there, which comes with a fantastic dinner show, by the way.
• 11:56
  And I've all being said, I haven't actually eaten there.
• 12:00
  I've seen what they have traditional traditional German fare, uh, sausages, sauerkraut, pretzels, uh you know, all the typical things that Americans think that Germany uh Germans eat.
• 12:10
  Um, but they do have a fantastic live show there with uh uh German musicians.
• 12:15
  Uh so they have poke music going on there, they have uh horns that are playing.
• 12:20
  It it goes on all day.
• 12:22
  Um, I it's something it's something if you're gonna eat and you get a free show on top of it, I think it's a great place to go.
• 12:28
  Something that people people well people miss all the time because they just they go to the booth outside and they'll never pay attention or go inside the actual pavilion itself.
• 12:35
  Yeah, I'm the one that goes to the booth outside.
• 12:37
  I didn't go into the pavilions.
• 12:39
  I I and I I'm I just have so much fun out there.
• 12:41
  I get the giant pretzel, I drink the grapefruit uh hefeison, and some during the festival they have the flights.
• 12:49
  So, I mean, this is where you officially stop pacing yourself and you just get into it.
• 12:53
  Like the rules are gone.
• 12:55
  You know, like, oh, we're gonna get candy, we're gonna share.
• 12:58
  No, no, we're gonna eat pretzels.
• 13:00
  Yeah, this is it, man.
• 13:01
  And you think the pretzel is gonna help you out, get you back to zero, but it's just it's false advertising.
• 13:06
  And these are these are big beers.
• 13:08
  These are I don't know how many ounces are I guess liters in German German's case, uh, how much they are, but they're they're rather large.
• 13:15
  So you get more than one of those things, and you're gonna be feeling pretty good trying to move on to the next country.
• 13:20
  I will tell you too, there's um, this is what I was gonna try to hit you with.
• 13:24
  There's uh like it's almost like a hidden wine cellar.
• 13:28
  I think every time I've been in there, people will kind of avoid it, but it's called um Wine Keller, it's a wine shop tucked inside Germany, it's usually air conditioned.
• 13:36
  Well, it's you it's air conditioned, usually quieter, and it's one of the most overlooked places to grab a drink.
• 13:41
  I've never known that.
• 13:43
  I've never paid any attention to it.
• 13:44
  That's cool.
• 13:45
  Uh, did you know that Germany was supposed to have a Rhine River boat ride there?
• 13:48
  Kind of like Maelstrom in Norway.
• 13:50
  Actually, I did know that.
• 13:52
  It never came to fruition.
• 13:53
  Yeah, probably the bad thing.
• 13:55
  They would have made it a frozen one.
• 13:57
  Can you imagine people drinking the large beers in Germany and then trying to get on a boat?
• 14:04
  There would be one or two water rescues a day, I think.
• 14:08
  Probably that's probably why they stopped.
• 14:09
  They didn't even go with it.
• 14:11
  That's a really good idea.
• 14:12
  Yeah, we probably shouldn't do that.
• 14:13
  Yeah, we're not gonna do that.
• 14:14
  All right, so we're moving on from Germany, going where?
• 14:17
  We're going to Italy.
• 14:18
  Beautiful.
• 14:19
  Uh, I like Italy as well.
• 14:21
  Um, we stopped there for pizza because everybody on the internet told me the pizza was great.
• 14:28
  Hot takes the pizza's not great.
• 14:30
  It's not it's not good at all.
• 14:32
  However, if you're however many countries are we in now?
• 14:35
  What are we in?
• 14:35
  Four in, five in?
• 14:37
  Yeah, yeah, something like that.
• 14:38
  So you already we already forgot.
• 14:40
  But everything tastes good at this point.
• 14:41
  But yeah, exactly.
• 14:42
  It's gonna be delicious.
• 14:43
  And listen, you need it.
• 14:46
  You need it in this point.
• 14:47
  You need it.
• 14:47
  So hey, go eat, go eat the gross pizza in Italy.
• 14:50
  Uh, you're gonna you need something to help sop up which you've been drinking the whole time.
• 14:54
  I do like the wine flights.
• 14:56
  It's just tough to go from the beer flights to the wine flights unless you get that pretzel or the overrated pizza.
• 15:02
  Uh, this pavilion combines uh architectures from Venice, Florence, Rome.
• 15:07
  I'm not sure that anyone's paying any attention to any of that uh at this point in in the ride.
• 15:13
  But uh, but that it that's what it's designed after.
• 15:15
  So if you are you're somewhat sober from eating your German pretzel, um take a look around and enjoy the different views that they have there.
• 15:23
  It it's very pretty, especially at nighttime.
• 15:26
  I I'll have to take your word for it.
• 15:28
  The last time I remember, I turned into a soma somier.
• 15:31
  So I'm tasting the wine and I'm like, oh, this has hints of garden hose and root beer.
• 15:40
  And it's just a touch of grapes.
• 15:43
  We're out of Italy, we're done.
• 15:45
  We've seen enough of Florence and naked statues and whatnot.
• 15:48
  Um, we're moving on to America, America.
• 15:52
  America.
• 15:53
  So, you know, the American Adventure is perfectly centered.
• 15:57
  It's directly in the middle of the world show face and is physically larger than every other pavilion, reinforcing Waltz, Waltz's uh original intention of America being the host nation.
• 16:07
  So we made it halfway, my friend.
• 16:09
  We're there.
• 16:09
  We made it halfway.
• 16:10
  This is where you're gonna get yourself some funnel cake.
• 16:12
  You're gonna go see my friend Sam the Eagle and uh go to go to Regal Eagle Barbecue and get you some good American barbecue here and uh enjoy the mac and cheese that they have there.
• 16:23
  Everything is delicious, everything is good, and and uh a great thing to do here on your way over from Italy is you want to mobile order that Regal Eagle barbecue, so it's ready for you when you get there.
• 16:33
  They have a really good whiskey drink that's there as well.
• 16:36
  Yeah, the the moonshine.
• 16:38
  Yeah, they have that as well.
• 16:40
  That's right.
• 16:41
  The and so America for me, like I tell everybody the food is great.
• 16:45
  I'm always so full by the time I get there that I need to I need to map this out better because the the barbecue, Regal Eagle barbecue is really fantastic.
• 16:53
  Like you can't beat it, and uh maybe it is because everything tastes good at that point as you're you know stumbling along singing Tora Laura Laura.
• 17:01
  Um, but you know, I I do think it's a good recovery stop.
• 17:05
  You're you're filling your belly with some barbecue and oh yeah, if you know the uh if you skip the moonshine and maybe get some water.
• 17:13
  Well, oh yeah, that's a drink we should probably mention.
• 17:16
  Uh if you uh at any point, if you want some water, they will give you free water.
• 17:22
  Yes, there are free things in Walt Disney World.
• 17:24
  Water is one of them.
• 17:26
  You can take uh if you're on the dining plan, you can take your cup and you can fill it up full of water, or you can ask any cast member at a quick service location where there is like a soda fountain, they'll give you a free cup of water.
• 17:36
  Right.
• 17:37
  This is uh this country is a it's a tribute to all countries, but mostly America.
• 17:43
  This is our my friend Sam the Eagle.
• 17:45
  That's funny.
• 17:46
  Is it's America is not where you're you're you you haven't gotten there to party, you're there to assess the damage.
• 17:54
  You're like, all right, can we make it the rest of the way?
• 17:56
  Are we taking the skyliner out of here?
• 17:59
  This is your halfway point, folks.
• 18:00
  This is where you you look at yourself in the mirror and think, I can do this, and then you start thinking about Japan.
• 18:06
  Because Japan's the next one on the on the list.
• 18:08
  Yep, our worst decision score for Japan is an eight out of ten, similar to China, because the drinks are tasting real good and they go down very easy and they come back to get you.
• 18:21
  They do those sake.
• 18:23
  Oh my gosh, sake's so good.
• 18:26
  Or do you like sake?
• 18:28
  I do like sake.
• 18:29
  I've had it, I had it with you, I think, for the very first time.
• 18:32
  Again, at this point, I didn't care.
• 18:34
  Um, I don't remember where we went from this point.
• 18:37
  I think this is where the ride ends for me.
• 18:39
  This is this is where I I've I've made it thus far, and I I'm not gonna go any further from here.
• 18:44
  So I think Pete's gonna take it from this point forward because I have nothing else to add.
• 18:49
  I think I was kind of dragging you along at that point in time.
• 18:52
  You were, you were, yeah.
• 18:53
  Um, yeah, no, the sake is fantastic here.
• 18:55
  They have really great sushi inside as well.
• 18:58
  Um, and like I mentioned in our our part one episode, it's absolutely gorgeous at nighttime.
• 19:04
  Uh the architecture there in Japan is beautiful.
• 19:07
  As Pete mentioned, they have the terrace, and you can you can catch uh the golf ball in the background at nighttime.
• 19:12
  It's it makes a really great picture, like he said.
• 19:15
  Um, it's it's just really pretty.
• 19:17
  Take some time, walk around, enjoy the gardens there, enjoy the the the uh the water that's there.
• 19:24
  Um it's it's really pretty.
• 19:26
  Um they and again, but like Pete's saying, the sakis is what you're gonna get here.
• 19:30
  Okay.
• 19:31
  Um, you enter that place not expecting to spend$80, but you spend$80 on sake.
• 19:37
  Uh it it happens.
• 19:40
  You know, the it's really neat.
• 19:42
  The uh pagoda there, too, is one of those force perspective perspective architecture things that they built.
• 19:47
  So the um the upper levels are built smaller than the lower levels, so it definitely gives you a bigger feel than it actually is.
• 19:54
  It's really neat.
• 19:54
  That's cool.
• 19:55
  That's cool.
• 19:56
  I've left you I left you on a bench.
• 19:58
  I think that's why you enjoyed the scenery so much because you just sat there.
• 20:03
  I think Japan is one of those ones um, you know, for taking a break, especially as you're getting around there and you're slowing down and you're just trying to enjoy things and not just drink like an alcoholic.
• 20:14
  Um, Japan, the UK, and Morocco, as I mentioned a few times, those are all great places to get really into the pavilion.
• 20:21
  And they've got some great places to just kind of uh reset, rest, kind of um get your mind about you.
• 20:27
  Right, and that's where we're headed next on the list.
• 20:29
  We're headed to Morocco, your favorite country, Pete.
• 20:30
  You want to talk about it?
• 20:31
  It really is.
• 20:32
  I, you know, I love all the other ones, but for some reason, because I've got some history, I've been to Morocco, and I really love the um the pavilion in the back.
• 20:43
  There's that rest area.
• 20:44
  I've said it, I think every episode we've done, there's a there's a spot in there that you can grab a Moroccan beer and it's usually quiet.
• 20:52
  There's tables and it's covered in shade.
• 20:55
  Like I mentioned last time, uh Morocco designed and sent the tiles in terracotta for the the pavilion.
• 21:04
  Like it's the most uh authentic out of all the countries because Morocco actually built it, you know, and it's most people skip it.
• 21:13
  So, you know, they just drive right on by Morocco.
• 21:15
  They're like, yeah.
• 21:16
  Um, they got the cool henna station out there that my daughter's gotten quite a few times.
• 21:20
  Um, it really is uh the most underrated pavilion, and I will die on that hill.
• 21:25
  It's one of the best.
• 21:26
  Like you said, uh in the back, there's some a little bit of ACD out of there.
• 21:29
  Um, you don't have to worry about being in the in the awful Florida sun anymore.
• 21:33
  You can enjoy some sangria.
• 21:35
  Um, the best thing to eat here is lamb kebabs and like backa blah.
• 21:40
  That's fantastic.
• 21:42
  Um, I'm all about those lamb kebabs.
• 21:44
  Give me more, please.
• 21:45
  All right.
• 21:46
  Um, most people skip this one, like you said, and it's it's kind of sad that you do because they're they're just moving on down the line and didn't really pay attention to it.
• 21:54
  The most popular drink here, I think, is the sangria.
• 21:56
  I think that's like the most common one.
• 21:58
  Um, yeah, head all the way to the Back for the sangria.
• 22:01
  Yeah.
• 22:02
  Yeah.
• 22:02
  Nice bathrooms, too.
• 22:05
  If you need to use the bathroom or uh you're going into puke and rally, whatever it is, right?
• 22:11
  Whatever the case may be.
• 22:13
  Whatever the case may be at this point in the ride.
• 22:16
  Um, they have really nice bathrooms there in the Morocco Pavilion as well.
• 22:20
  Um, they used to have a really cool uh sit-down restaurant with a belly dancer that's no longer there.
• 22:25
  That's uh old Epcot.
• 22:27
  Um, but that that space is open for you to go down and sit down in now.
• 22:31
  Uh just it's just not a working restaurant any further or anymore.
• 22:35
  All right, we've moving on.
• 22:36
  Um hang on before we move on.
• 22:37
  Let's give them the decision score.
• 22:39
  This one is a relatively tame one, so we give it a five out of ten.
• 22:42
  So this is this is your safe spot.
• 22:46
  On the worst decision score, you're hanging out right in the middle at a five out of ten.
• 22:49
  I think I'd I'd I'd have to agree with that.
• 22:51
  I remember Morocco.
• 22:54
  Okay.
• 22:55
  I remember, I remember I say I remember it's your safe place.
• 23:01
  All right, moving on, moving on.
• 23:03
  Our next our our next country.
• 23:04
  Viva la France.
• 23:06
  So at this point in the race, you you start to see the end, and you're you're getting to the like these glorious places.
• 23:13
  When I hit France, I feel like I hear some drunk angels in the background beckoning me towards the champagne.
• 23:19
  Like I, you know, I'm just I'm just a dork.
• 23:23
  So every place I go, oh, this is my favorite.
• 23:26
  But at this point, you're you're you're a little tipsy, you know, you're leaning on each other.
• 23:30
  Yeah.
• 23:31
  A little.
• 23:31
  Yep.
• 23:33
  This one gets a 10 out of 10 because it is there's a lot here.
• 23:37
  Um, the Eiffel Tower is another one that gives you that forced perspective.
• 23:41
  It it looks like it's far away, and as you get closer, it draws you in, um, brings you in.
• 23:46
  The uh I got the crepes, they have the savory crepes, they have the sweet crepes, those are over by uh Remy's super great um for snacks.
• 23:55
  I know the the macarons or however you say that in French, macaroons, I don't know.
• 24:00
  Macaroons, yeah.
• 24:01
  That's right.
• 24:01
  They're not good.
• 24:02
  They're not great.
• 24:03
  I've been to Paris, they're not even good in Paris.
• 24:05
  I'm sorry.
• 24:05
  The um the sandwich with the ice cream, yes, okay.
• 24:10
  With the brioche buns, yeah.
• 24:12
  Yeah, it's another, it's another one of those um viral ones, and everybody in the line has always really a bad day for you.
• 24:27
  All right, here's what you do if you're able to pull out that phone, pull out that mobile, uh, mobile dining on my disperience, look at the France Pazilon and order from Layall.
• 24:37
  Layall is a quick service restaurant in the France Pazilon, and you want to order yourself a couple baguettes for you and your buddies, okay?
• 24:43
  And you just walk along and munch on that baguette, and it'll help help you uh enjoy the rest of your time there and get some water.
• 24:50
  Um, but mobile order, mobile order, mobile order is is the key here.
• 24:55
  Um, it's a long line if you don't, and certainly if you've been to this many countries, you don't want to stand in line any more than you have to.
• 25:02
  So mobile order is your go-through lay all and they'll have it ready for you when you get there.
• 25:07
  Of course, Pete, do you want to take the most popular drink here?
• 25:10
  Yeah, I mean, I didn't even know about this drink until your wife ordered it.
• 25:13
  It's the grandmanier slush, like she loves that thing.
• 25:17
  Yep, she knows.
• 25:18
  Yeah, it's really good.
• 25:20
  This is about the time on the trip around that you start thinking you can speak French, though.
• 25:24
  Oh, yeah, I can absolutely speak French.
• 25:26
  Yeah, most definitely.
• 25:27
  Yep.
• 25:29
  My Spanish gets a lot better in Mexico, by the way, too.
• 25:33
  I agree, mine does too.
• 25:34
  All right, we're headed next.
• 25:35
  Uh, leaving France and going over to their best friends in the United Kingdom.
• 25:39
  Just kidding.
• 25:40
  Um, they don't like each other very much, but they're close, uh, close by.
• 25:44
  They're just across the little walkway there and going to the UK.
• 25:47
  We're going to um the Rosen Crown.
• 25:51
  Rosen Crown.
• 25:51
  What do you think about the Rosen Crown?
• 25:53
  That's a winner.
• 25:53
  It's I mean, it's crowded, but it's worth it.
• 25:56
  It is.
• 25:57
  It looks if you've ever been to Britain, uh, it looks like the architecture represents multiple eras of British history.
• 26:04
  It looks like any other pub that you've ever been to uh in in Britain.
• 26:08
  It is it's beautiful.
• 26:09
  Like Pete said, it is very, very busy.
• 26:12
  Um, it's I don't believe you can mobile ward out of it.
• 26:16
  Uh, but if you you gotta know that you have a lot of time to stand in line from the guys in front of you and behind you to figure out what you want.
• 26:22
  Usually it's just a beer or sometimes it's a whiskey.
• 26:24
  They have uh they have a lot, they have a huge flight um at the bar there.
• 26:28
  Um, I remember when I was standing in line or holding myself up at this point, uh, there the bartender was a rather large gentleman.
• 26:38
  Um, it looked like he was a lumberjack.
• 26:41
  And uh I remember the guy, the smart ass American next to me decided to make a joke.
• 26:46
  And uh he's like, Yeah, you put it on the Queen's tab, and the guy behind the bar didn't think it was funny.
• 26:50
  He's like, the queen just died, mate, and he was serious about it.
• 26:53
  I was like, whoa, like you don't want to make you don't want to make that dude mad.
• 26:57
  All right, you don't he's pouring your drinks and he's the size of a mountain on top of it, all right.
• 27:02
  That you don't want to you wanna make you might wait wanna tip that guy well, okay.
• 27:06
  Uh the goal is to avoid the lifetime ban, right?
• 27:10
  Right, right.
• 27:12
  Um, however, uh the fish and chips here are fantastic, and you don't have to order them for the Rosen Crown.
• 27:18
  You can order them from the little coat cart that's just outside.
• 27:21
  You can again mobile order uh and walk up and pick up what you've ordered.
• 27:26
  It's the same stuff that they're serving at the Suntime restaurant, it's the same stuff that they're serving at the Rosen Crown.
• 27:31
  It's there, please mobile order it.
• 27:32
  That's your best friend, okay?
• 27:34
  The UK is another one where you don't have to eat on a trash can.
• 27:36
  You can go back into the UK and there's uh there's gardens back there, there's lots of places to sit, there's a lot of places to hang out, gets very quiet the further in you walk.
• 27:45
  The fun thing about the UK too is it's like a time machine.
• 27:48
  As you um the buildings aren't random as you walk deeper into the pavilion, the architecture moves through different periods of British history, ending with a more modern style.
• 27:56
  So, you know, you got your fish and chips, you got your Smittics, uh, you know, your rolling is my favorite beer.
• 28:02
  You're rolling in the back like life is good.
• 28:05
  Yeah, no, the Smiths it hits just right.
• 28:07
  It's it's wonderful.
• 28:09
  Um, and for your Guinness drinkers, there's plenty of it there too.
• 28:11
  But my for my dollar, Smiths is better.
• 28:13
  Yeah, I'm with you on that one.
• 28:14
  Smoother, it doesn't taste like you're drinking oatmeal.
• 28:17
  It's it's it's much better.
• 28:19
  Okay, here comes the first hate meal.
• 28:23
  The UK pavilion is where every upcot itinerary goes off the rails.
• 28:27
  This is the point where you just gung ho, you can see the finish line, and here we are on the other side, and here we are at Canada.
• 28:36
  Our friends, the Canadians to the north.
• 28:38
  Are we happy?
• 28:39
  Are we friendly to them when we get there?
• 28:42
  Here's the thing like I was talking about how I don't want to start with a labats.
• 28:47
  You know, I think about it, I don't want to end with a labats either.
• 28:49
  But at this point, I'm so full.
• 28:52
  I'm gonna go sit by that um totem pole they have and just drink my labats and think about my life choices.
• 29:00
  Speaking of life choices, on the worst decision score, this is a four out of ten.
• 29:04
  So, this is why we highly recommend if you want to go the responsible route out of 11 countries, start here on in Canada, and it's a four out of 10.
• 29:12
  You're gonna be okay, it's gonna be fine.
• 29:15
  Don't be like Pete and I, don't make bad decisions in life, don't start in Mexico.
• 29:19
  Um, you won't make it, okay.
• 29:22
  Um, the Gardens landscaping here are the best in Apcot.
• 29:25
  It is a beautiful pavilion, of course.
• 29:27
  Uh, Canada being our closest neighbor to the north.
• 29:30
  Um, again, very rustic, very law cabin-ish.
• 29:33
  Uh, they have a little silly movie that needs is well outdated there in the back that you can go watch.
• 29:39
  Um, yeah, it's uh the the best eat here is of course the poutine.
• 29:44
  You familiar with what poutine is?
• 29:45
  Yeah, I'm gonna disagree.
• 29:47
  I'm gonna go with the cheddar cheese soup from La Celire.
• 29:49
  Do you want soup at this point, Pete?
• 29:51
  You want soup?
• 29:52
  That's a good point.
• 29:56
  I think you're gonna see the soup again, okay?
• 29:58
  Okay, it's not gonna be good the second time.
• 30:01
  You know what I mean?
• 30:01
  That would be the worst.
• 30:03
  That's the worst.
• 30:04
  That's the worst.
• 30:05
  However, if this is the point where you're going from drink to snack to drink to snack, which is the smarter choice, uh, it's not beaten our preferred way, but it's a smarter choice.
• 30:16
  This is where you would get this the cheddar tree soup, all right, and the and the poutine.
• 30:20
  This is where you want to you want to load up on those heavier snacks uh to help soak up a little bit of that, what you what you've been enjoying the whole time.
• 30:28
  So, this for Canada, it's like if you if you've done it, if you started in Mexico, you made it all the way around, then you're gonna you're gonna go around to the back, you're gonna go to the secret, which aren't a secret, waterfalls in the back of Canada.
• 30:41
  And this is where your survivors gather and compare stories of their epic trek around the world in 11 countries, right?
• 30:49
  I mine ended what well mine ended at country number four.
• 30:53
  Well, truthfully, if we started in Mexico, I'm not leaving, folks.
• 30:56
  I'm not leaving.
• 30:57
  That's it.
• 30:57
  I'm I'm never leaving.
• 31:00
  Um, yep, that's it for me.
• 31:02
  I'm sorry.
• 31:03
  I'm sorry.
• 31:04
  Well, the good news is we made it, right?
• 31:06
  We made it.
• 31:07
  We talked, we talked through it.
• 31:08
  Uh, it's certainly easier to talk through than it is to make it through all the way.
• 31:12
  But you out there, you listen, you listeners out there, I believe in you.
• 31:16
  And we uh Pete and I believe in you.
• 31:18
  Uh, you can make the worst decisions as well, just like we can, and uh you can make it.
• 31:23
  You can make it.
• 31:24
  And just like I said, you know, it's like in it's like an airport, so you know the the rules don't matter.
• 31:31
  Just don't climb the just don't climb the tournament.
• 31:34
  There's wait, yeah.
• 31:34
  There's there's two rules.
• 31:35
  One, don't climb, don't climb the the Mexico pavilion.
• 31:38
  That's your that's your one rule, or the totem pole.
• 31:40
  Okay.
• 31:41
  Two, keep your shirt on, right?
• 31:42
  Okay, that's that's your other that's the other rule, all right.
• 31:45
  But the good news is calories don't count on vacation.
• 31:48
  And walking between pavilions equals exercise.
• 31:52
  Yes, you're getting your steps in, and one bottle of water or one one little cup of water at every other station, every other country will help you fix everything, I promise.
• 32:00
  So keep hydrated as well.
• 32:02
  What's a what's a tell me what uh um if you if you're walking back out and leaving from France, what's the thing that's gonna ease your hangover?
• 32:10
  The monorail.
• 32:12
  Well, in France is oh oh no, not the uh no, it's the it's the skyliner.
• 32:18
  It's the skyliner.
• 32:19
  Skyliner.
• 32:20
  That is that's definitely easier hangover.
• 32:24
  Uh however, if you're gonna ride that thing, please uh after you hit 11 countries, make sure you're in it with just you and your buddies uh and not some other strangers because it's not gonna be a fun ride for them.
• 32:35
  Although you and your friends are gonna have a great time.
• 32:37
  The strangers that are with you in the Skyliner are probably not gonna have a great time unless they've been hanging out with you.
• 32:42
  But uh, but yeah, uh that's gonna get you back to your resorts.
• 32:46
  Yep.
• 32:47
  You know, as you're leaving Epcot and you're thinking I spent$19 on a margarita and you're saying, yeah, worth it.
• 32:54
  Totally worth it, totally worth it.
• 32:56
  Jay, we've got a little bit of time left.
• 32:58
  Why don't we talk about we've done this ourselves?
• 33:00
  Why don't we tell them about the monorail bar crawl since we're on our drinking kick here?
• 33:04
  Sounds good.
• 33:05
  So this whole episode is is what people want to hear most, I think.
• 33:09
  Uh okay, so uh if drinking around the world is a Disney Adult 101, the monorail bar crawl is graduate school.
• 33:16
  So you're gonna go to grad school on the monorail itself, friends.
• 33:19
  Congratulations.
• 33:20
  Where are we starting off?
• 33:22
  Yeah, I mean, I think you got to catch the monorail on the contemporary.
• 33:26
  Um, we give this one a five out of ten because uh, you know, it's really chill, it's really nice.
• 33:32
  The steakhouse 71 lounge is a favorite of Jamie and my and myself.
• 33:36
  And uh so good.
• 33:37
  And they had the food is fantastic.
• 33:39
  I've never the only time I've ever ordered food here is with you, and it's been sitting at the bar, but it's no different than sitting down in the restaurant portion of the of the restaurant either.
• 33:49
  You get the same steak, you get the same sides, same everything sitting at the bar.
• 33:54
  Honestly, the lounge is fantastic.
• 33:56
  The lounge is a 10 out of 10 for me.
• 33:58
  You got plenty of seating.
• 33:59
  We've never had a problem getting a a spot too.
• 34:01
  TV is everywhere, food is good, the drinks are great.
• 34:05
  Yeah, yeah.
• 34:06
  We're gonna um well, we should mention the outer rim is there too.
• 34:10
  We can hit that if you wanted to.
• 34:11
  If you're trying to get these quick and just see the hotels, the outer room is right there too.
• 34:15
  And if you you do plan it really well and are super bougie, you can hit up to uh California Grill upstairs.
• 34:22
  But my my take on this one, I think yours too, Jamie, is Steakhouse 71 for the Monterey L crawl.
• 34:27
  It is, it is, and if you are a DVC member like both Pete and I, you can head up to Top of the World Lounge and the very top of the contemporary.
• 34:34
  And and the best part to go up there, and if you have a DVC membership, you don't have to make a reservation and get up there.
• 34:40
  You just go, they're never that terribly busy.
• 34:42
  The only time they get a little more busy is in the evening towards park closing time when you can walk out onto their balcony and see they pipe in the music and you can watch the fireworks from Magic Kingdom right there on the balcony from the contemporary, and it is a great show.
• 34:55
  Um, that's a little hidden tip there.
• 34:57
  Uh and again, they're never terribly busy.
• 34:59
  You can walk up to the bar without uh, you know, like without shoulder-to-shoulder people, like you were in the in the UK pavilion.
• 35:06
  Um, it's more relaxing atmosphere.
• 35:08
  There are villain photos all over the all over the walls.
• 35:11
  It's a cool place to go.
• 35:12
  Uh, we like it there too.
• 35:14
  Um next, where are we headed next, Pete?
• 35:17
  We're uh gonna hop on that monorail, sober up a little bit.
• 35:21
  We're going over to the Polynesian Resort.
• 35:23
  Another favorite of your of ours.
• 35:26
  Yeah, absolutely.
• 35:27
  I think the go-to here is uh so I can never remember the name.
• 35:32
  I think it's legit the Wayalulu Lounge, but I call it the Wakaluku Luku Luku Lounge.
• 35:40
  At this point in night, yeah.
• 35:42
  That's what it's like.
• 35:42
  At this point, we've had too many drinks, but I'm gonna give that a second place score.
• 35:46
  Um, really great new place.
• 35:48
  Um, they've got the banana old fashioned, which I really like, but the absolute best for me in in most of Disney World for lounges is Trader Sam's Grog Grotto.
• 36:00
  Like it it is the best.
• 36:01
  Trader Sam's is where responsible decisions go to die.
• 36:04
  Like it is it is fantastic.
• 36:06
  What's the drink you try to get there every time, Pete?
• 36:09
  Um ever get I'm gonna order the pearl because I want the guy to reach into that clam's mouth and pull out a black pearl for me.
• 36:18
  And it's never a black pearl, but here's the thing you keep ordering them and it's gonna come.
• 36:22
  You're gonna get them, you're gonna get one one of these days.
• 36:25
  And then a black pearl does come out, and I think it's mine, and he gives it to someone else who also ordered a black pearl because everybody else is doing what I'm doing.
• 36:32
  Well, but it's great.
• 36:34
  Um, they uh some of the drinks you can take the cup home with you.
• 36:39
  It's not cheap.
• 36:40
  Um, but a lot of the drinks are interactive.
• 36:42
  You order uh a drink and you can get rained on, you order a drink and you're firing up the lava volcano.
• 36:50
  Um, it is just uh it's an experience.
• 36:52
  You go in there and it's interactive.
• 36:55
  You can swim with the bartenders and the and the service people that are there.
• 36:59
  The bartenders are uh they're they're actors, they are hilarious.
• 37:03
  They make the entire experience.
• 37:05
  It's a blast.
• 37:06
  It's a blast.
• 37:06
  Now we talked about this uh in a couple episodes earlier about how you can join the walk-up queue from your phone again.
• 37:14
  Pack your your uh portable charges, folks, because uh you know have I mentioned the bringing on your phone a lot.
• 37:19
  Um, but you can you what you used to have to do is you actually had to go to Trader Sam's itself and physically put your name on a list of the cast member to get into Trader Sam's.
• 37:27
  No longer is that the case.
• 37:28
  You can do it do it straight from your phone, but you do have to be in proximity of Trader Sam's and the Polynesian Resort in order to do that.
• 37:35
  So you can do it right from your your phone.
• 37:37
  You can go enjoy a dole whip out there uh at the Polynesian Resort and then put yourself on the walk-up list via your phone, your My Disney Experience app uh to get into this bar.
• 37:47
  The worst decision score for this one is a 10 out of 10.
• 37:50
  This is not one of those places where you're gonna start and never want to leave.
• 37:53
  But you know what?
• 37:53
  It's a great time.
• 37:54
  It's a great time, it's a great atmosphere.
• 37:56
  They make it uh a blast, like Pete's saying, the bartenders are your best friends.
• 38:01
  Uh, we met some really cool people the first time we were there, and you put them on a trip to Iceland, right?
• 38:06
  I did, yeah.
• 38:07
  It was um one of the best trips I've booked.
• 38:09
  We they went through Iceland, London, Scotland for their uh their honeymoon, made sure that each of the spots had uh they knew it was their honeymoon, so they got they got some upgrades on that one.
• 38:19
  So it made me look really good on that one.
• 38:21
  They had a great time, and all because we got drunk with them.
• 38:24
  Wow, you know, uh we uh we were they were like, So what are you two doing here?
• 38:30
  When both P and I looked at each other and we pulled out our cool name takes that we are our lanyards that we had around our necks that we had hidden in our shirts.
• 38:35
  We're like, we're really cool travel agents, take a look at us, and they're like, Okay, losers.
• 38:40
  Um, but we had a great time regardless.
• 38:42
  Um, and and of course they left, and then more people came to the table and were like, This is the fun table.
• 38:47
  If you don't want to have fun, you can't sit here.
• 38:48
  Uh but we we had fun with every every every person that sat down at the table.
• 38:53
  We made it a fun experience for every person that we met that day.
• 38:57
  All right, so let's finish it up.
• 38:59
  We're going to the grand, uh, the pinnacle, the flagship.
• 39:03
  Uh, worst decision score is a seven out of ten.
• 39:07
  Um, I think I mentioned before you can uh stay at Pop Century but walk into the grand like you own the joint because they don't know where you're staying.
• 39:14
  You're you're just walking around enjoying yourself.
• 39:17
  They do have a new lounge on the ground level as you walk into the Grand Florida now.
• 39:21
  Forgive me, I don't remember the name of it.
• 39:23
  Um, however, they they're it's very limited on what they have to serve there as far as drinks go.
• 39:29
  They have some wine and they can make a limited amount of mixed drinks that that that are there.
• 39:33
  Um, if you really want a larger menu as far as drinks go and as far as food goes, what you want to do is you want to head upstairs to my favorite place, which is the enchanted rose.
• 39:42
  Pete, you been to Enchanted Rose?
• 39:43
  I have, I love it.
• 39:44
  The snacks are great, the drinks are fantastic.
• 39:46
  Friends, they have truffle fries.
• 39:49
  Let me say that again.
• 39:50
  They have truffle fries and keep them coming, please, and thank you.
• 39:54
  They are delicious.
• 39:55
  All right, you get yourself an old-fashioned setup there and enjoy the atmosphere.
• 39:59
  Um, if it's of course uh themed to Beauty and the Beast, but it's not in your face, uh, Beauty and the Beast, like over at uh what's a restaurant and magic in a beat you like to send people to.
• 40:10
  What's that?
• 40:10
  Be our guest, right?
• 40:11
  Be our guest, yeah.
• 40:12
  It's not so much in your face, it's more uh it's kind of kind of like hidden behind the scenes, and you have to really look for um what's going on around the restaurant to actually notice the theme of the beauty and the beast.
• 40:24
  It's it's done up really well.
• 40:25
  They did a really great job designing this this lounge.
• 40:28
  Yeah, it's really good, and the snacks are really good.
• 40:30
  The one downstairs is called the perch, it's right next to that big birdcage.
• 40:34
  Yes, that's right.
• 40:35
  Thank you.
• 40:35
  Thank you for reminding me.
• 40:36
  That's a clever name for that.
• 40:38
  All right, my brother, let's get into the uh final segment.
• 40:41
  This is the the worst decisions awards.
• 40:47
  All right, so based on the worst decision score, uh tell me what your best pavilion is.
• 40:52
  Oh, I mean, I've said it over and over again.
• 40:54
  It's Mexico, friends.
• 40:55
  It's Mexico.
• 40:56
  You're gonna start in Mexico, you have a great time, uh, and go see the chickens on the ride.
• 41:00
  Pete's favorite chickens, the ducks with no pants on.
• 41:03
  Um after you enjoy like Del Tequila like we do, and then head on out from there.
• 41:09
  Don't don't uh get tricked and stay because you'll never leave.
• 41:12
  Um, but it's it's it's definitely the it's definitely the worst place and the best place to start.
• 41:17
  All right, what's your best food?
• 41:20
  At uh the Mexico Pavilion or and in general?
• 41:22
  In general.
• 41:23
  Oh, I think I think if you want to like a have a hearty meal, it's gonna be the American Pavilion, like we talked about.
• 41:30
  It's gonna be uh it's gonna be the the barbecue over there with their friend uh Sam the Eagle, Regal Eagle Cafe, uh Regal Eagle Barbecue.
• 41:38
  I think that's probably our best option for food over there.
• 41:40
  And but if you're looking for more of a sit-down dinner show, I think you can't go wrong in Germany either.
• 41:45
  I think that's your your your close second.
• 41:47
  If you're looking to eat and move on, it's gonna be America.
• 41:50
  If you're looking for a sit-down uh atmosphere with enjoy the show with some Liederhosen, you're want to go to Germany.
• 41:56
  Who doesn't love Lederhosen?
• 41:57
  You know, Pete, I don't want to see you in Lederhosen.
• 41:59
  I should I should probably say happening.
• 42:02
  It's happening.
• 42:03
  Great.
• 42:04
  All right, tell me the worst food.
• 42:07
  Uh the worst food, I think it's gonna be in China.
• 42:11
  It's gonna be maybe just because I my palate isn't uh isn't you know it's that of an of a 10-year-old.
• 42:19
  I don't want to eat weird stuff, and I think they have they have a lot of cool food food there that they have that obviously is Chinese, but it's not what you and I are used to eating.
• 42:28
  So it's it's if you're an adventurous eater, I think it's I think China might be your your best bet.
• 42:33
  Let me flip the script here, Anipete.
• 42:34
  I'm gonna go ask you the questions from this point forward.
• 42:37
  Uh, what is your best food?
• 42:39
  Best food for me is the crepes in Paris.
• 42:44
  Okay, I like it.
• 42:45
  Yeah, savory or sweet, like whatever you're feeling at the time, it's fantastic.
• 42:50
  Going to Léall.
• 42:50
  Okay, I like that one.
• 42:51
  That's a good one for sure.
• 42:52
  Remember, mobile order.
• 42:54
  Um, your best drink is it also in France?
• 42:57
  Um, yeah, you know what?
• 43:00
  It's funny.
• 43:00
  I'm gonna give you that.
• 43:01
  I'm gonna give you France as the best drink because by the time I get there, I'm ecstatic.
• 43:06
  I'm turning into Santa Claus.
• 43:08
  I wanted to buy drinks for everybody else, I'm bougie, so I'm like, champagne, that's who I am now.
• 43:14
  I'm a guy that drinks champagne on trash cans.
• 43:17
  So absolutely.
• 43:19
  Um, my favorite drink is the$35 half poor champagne glass in France.
• 43:27
  High dollar, high dollar, my friend.
• 43:30
  That's too rich for my blood.
• 43:30
  I'm going over to the UK pavilion having my sminics.
• 43:33
  Thank you.
• 43:34
  I could drink a bunch of smix for$35.
• 43:36
  Um, best or most underrated pavilion, I think you mentioned it earlier.
• 43:41
  Your favorite place.
• 43:42
  Yeah, um, Morocco for me.
• 43:43
  I think it's very underrated.
• 43:45
  I think it's my best as well.
• 43:47
  Um, so go to Morocco, enjoy yourself.
• 43:50
  Yeah, I like it.
• 43:51
  Uh, most underrated pavilion, I think, is uh is Canada.
• 43:55
  They have some good beers, they have some great beers there.
• 43:57
  And if you like poutine, uh that's something.
• 44:00
  That you've never had before, it's something you want to try.
• 44:02
  Uh, for those who don't know, those are cheese curds covered in gravy on French fries, okay?
• 44:06
  Like those are I mean, where do you you can't go wrong?
• 44:09
  Okay, you can't go wrong.
• 44:11
  Don't drink the hot cheddar soup after going after 10 countries.
• 44:15
  That's a bad decision, all right.
• 44:17
  Uh, enjoy the enjoy the poutine, put a little substance into your body.
• 44:20
  Uh, all those things are good, uh, especially if you've been to on your 11th country.
• 44:25
  Um, how about for your best monorail stop?
• 44:27
  Best monorail stop.
• 44:29
  I'm gonna change the script up and go to the lobby bar or the Polynesian because I want a Tamu Tamu at Ohana because I anything I can drink, a drink out of fruit or a pineapple is the way to go.
• 44:41
  So I'm gonna get my pineapple drink at Tamu Tamu.
• 44:44
  Oh man, it's Trader Sam's for me.
• 44:46
  You introduced me to Trader Sam's, and I don't think there's a better place.
• 44:48
  It's so much fun.
• 44:49
  It is a great time.
• 44:50
  It's so much fun.
• 44:51
  Yeah, they make it, they make it a blast in there for sure.
• 44:53
  That really is my favorite stop.
• 44:55
  I just wanted to talk about the drink from the pineapple.
• 44:57
  Right.
• 44:58
  I drink out of the pineapple, right?
• 45:00
  Uh, you if if you want uh the pot stickers and the new infamous uh noodles that there's some you know buy reality to online on TikTok, uh you can go up to the Tamboo Table Lounge, like Pete's saying, you can order from the bar at Ohana if there's not a um if there's not a seat available for you.
• 45:19
  Uh you can get all the same things off the menu at the bar there as well.
• 45:22
  So don't get disappointed if you uh if you go to show up at Ohana without a dining reservation, uh you can always walk up to the bar and order there as well.
• 45:29
  Okay.
• 45:30
  Let me throw you a throw a hot take that I have.
• 45:32
  Ohana's not as good as it used to be.
• 45:34
  It's not.
• 45:35
  It's not.
• 45:36
  So don't waste your dining reservation if you can get the experience by ordering from the mobile order of the lounge.
• 45:43
  Like the restaurant's not what it used to be.
• 45:46
  Yeah, I think after after COVID, it kind of took a bit of a dive.
• 45:50
  I've been there for the family and friends breakfast character breakfasts with uh Stitch and Lilo.
• 45:57
  Um we like had to ask, and this is a number of years ago now, but we had to ask a cast member more than once if we could get Stitch and Lilo to come past the table, but they were slammed.
• 46:06
  It was it was very busy.
• 46:08
  Uh the food was your just your regular breakfast food, your pancake, your eggs, your Mickey shaped waffles.
• 46:13
  Um, nothing really out of the ordinary, nothing that screams Ohana, like a um, nothing that screams like this is a Hawaiian or uh you know Pacific culture at all.
• 46:23
  Um, it just it's just it's just not worth it for me anymore.
• 46:26
  I think I'd have to agree with you on that.
• 46:27
  It's just not worth it.
• 46:28
  If you want to go there for dinner and get a table uh towards the window and watch the fireworks in the evening, I think that's a great option.
• 46:35
  Um, again, the food is what it is.
• 46:38
  Uh I think a better option is to mobile order like Peter Sain and then walk down to the beach and view the fireworks on the beach down to the Polynesian, and which is open to anyone, by the way.
• 46:48
  You don't have to be staying there to do that.
• 46:51
  Uh, but you can walk out there and the music is piped in and you can watch the beautiful Magic Kingdom uh fireworks from the beach of the Polynesian, which is a great, great way to end your night.
• 47:01
  No matter what you're doing, remember hide rate and wear comfortable shoes.
• 47:06
  And if somebody says, let's take one more stop, uh, your Epcot day is probably gonna get significantly worse.
• 47:13
  Um better or better.
• 47:15
  But the theme of this is the worst, so it's definitely it's definitely gonna get worse.
• 47:18
  You're not gonna feel like it, it's gonna feel like it the next day.
• 47:21
  All right, so next week uh we're gonna talk about Magic Kingdom, we're gonna talk about the the park, the Walt Disney World, um, Walt Disney um, which everybody thinks about.
• 47:33
  Yeah.
• 47:33
  When they think about Walt Disney World, they think about Cinderella's castle and seeing that walking down Main Street USA and uh enjoying the atmosphere.
• 47:40
  There's no better feeling than coming through those gates and under the train and then seeing her castle at the end of the uh end of the street, and you you lock arms and skip down Main Street.
• 47:48
  It's a great time.
• 47:49
  Absolutely.
• 47:49
  We're probably gonna break that one up into two, if not three episodes, because it is worth uh discussing.
• 47:55
  But uh, you know, Jamie, if they want to get in touch with us, what are they gonna do?
• 47:59
  Uh you're gonna find me at at five on the fly, at underscore on the underscore fly on Instagram and TikTok.
• 48:08
  You're gonna find me at petrimax p-e-t-r-i-e-m-a-x on all the socials, and you're gonna find us.
• 48:15
  Please send us some some mail.
• 48:17
  We've been waiting uh daily for that first email that we're gonna get.
• 48:20
  You know, no emails, no emails, yeah.
• 48:24
  But if you've made it this far, we are the worst beyond the magic at gmail.com.
• 48:28
  Which is again the worst beyond the magic at gmail.com.
• 48:32
  Thank you, Pete.
• 48:33
  Uh, I want to give a quick shout out to our friend.
• 48:36
  We are Pete, did you know that we're really cool and that we're international celebrities now?
• 48:40
  Did you were you aware of that fact?
• 48:41
  I I was, but tell us what we have we have one listener in Brazil, friends.
• 48:46
  I don't know how that happened, how she found us, but she left us a fantastic five-star review on Apple Podcasts.
• 48:52
  And I would challenge you to go on there and do the same thing for us.
• 48:55
  Uh, the more five-star reviews we get, pretend like we're your favorite Uber drivers, give us five stars.
• 49:00
  Uh, Apple Podcasts pushes our uh it out on their platform to people that are looking for Disney stuff, and it helps us get recognized and seen them out there by the masses quicker if we have more five-star reviews.
• 49:10
  So, thank you to our friend or listener in Brazil.
• 49:13
  Of all Brazil is now my new favorite Epcot Pavilion.
• 49:17
  It's not, it's not an Epcot.
• 49:19
  It should be an Epcot Pavilion.
• 49:20
  It should be now.
• 49:20
  It is now.
• 49:21
  Thank you so much for the five star reviews.
• 49:22
  Please keep them coming.
• 49:23
  We really enjoy reading them.
• 49:24
  And of course, like Pete's saying, send us an email, send us uh if you agree with, if you don't agree with us, let us know if you're Team Canada or Team Mexico to start.
• 49:31
  Uh, but I think that's where it's gonna end.
• 49:33
  Pete, you're the worst.
• 49:35
  Jamie, you are the worst.
• 49:37
  This has been the worst beyond the magic.
