Transcript
- Rob & Erick: In this special edition of the Year Scouts podcast, we are back with you from Anaheim, California at the D23 Ultimate Fan event. This is our second day of coverage, and we have got so much stuff to share with you. We got a lot to cover, so we're gonna jump right into it. Didn't go. ho everybody. This is Rob with Ear Scouts. We're coming to you live from Anaheim at the Pixar Place Hotel. Craig is joining us, not from his usual location. He's joining us from Tucson. We're all over the place and I gotta say we're it's gonna be an interesting show technically because none of us is in home base and we're already having some fun issues. So please do bear with us, but we've got so much to talk about and and Craig, I'm gonna toss to you to kind of run the show, because you're you're you've got the flow there, so let us know what what what do we want to start talking about. Craig: Okay, so first of all, if you are a patron and you've been paying attention to the live chat, you would know that Eric met someone very, very important yesterday. And I'd love to hear more about how that happened. Rob & Erick: Okay. Well yeah, you e Eric Eric met the boss. And I don't mean Mickey, I mean the other Craig: Yeah. Rob & Erick: boss. Yeah. Yeah, I was we were able to join for the cast members photo, like right in front of the by the main entrance. And I happened to be like five people away from from Josh tomorrow, so I was able like when we finished take getting the photo taken, I was I was able to shake hands with him. So it was a very exciting date. Yeah, it it was honestly Eric had so many moments of just Disney magic yesterday. So he he goes for that photo, he's seated right next practically right next to Josh DeMaro. At one point, I think you were right next to Josh Damoro, and you know, got to meet him, and then we got to the big main event at the Honda Center. And I'm so sad that I missed this, but I I went to go get some merch. And when I came back, Eric is on the Jumbotron in the Honda Center playing a game. Like he was selected from the audience to be in in this Marvel game, which let's just say Eric's Marvel game. That's not his strongest game. He's not he's not a Marvel guy. More Craig: Ha ha Rob & Erick: of More of a Disney guy. But you you you you won some stuff. yeah, like well, sorry. Thankfully, like a as you may know, like I'm very camera shy. So it was very it was very weird to be like on the big screen over there. and to got selected for that, you know? So the bag that we got, it was from like Toy Story Five and it had like a a lot of different goodies. it came with laptop sleep, it came with some Ursula ears, it came with a keychain and some other things from from different movies. So it was very exciting. I was freaking out but but we did it. Yeah. But but I gotta say this whole D twenty three has just been magical. This is our third time being at D twenty three and I think before this event I would have recommended D twenty three with some reservations. I would have been like, it's good, but just know this and this and this. I don't have reservations this year. I mean, it's it's just been a a phenomenal event. And I I do know that there's been a lot of talk online about that first moment when the crowds kind of rushed the door and it seemed like it was chaos. That's really, I feel like all on the crowd because Disney, for the first time since we've been coming to this, did an incredible job of keeping the the flow was very organized. Like in previous years, people who arrived first sometimes got in towards the beginning, but the but people who came up at the last minute would sometimes be able to walk right in front of everybody else and it caused a lot of irritation by people who've been camping out there since five in the morning, you know, that other people just walked right in. So Disney did a really great job this year. They controlled the flow. It was all very structured and organized at all points. You knew where you were going. You knew what you were supposed to do. And then the minute they opened the doors, all these people are neatly lined up and they just rushed the door. I mean that I don't know what Disney could have done. You know what I mean? Like they they there's no way they would have had enough staff to stop all those people from just deciding to ignore the rules. so I I think that was unfortunate that that happened, but that really wasn't on Disney. That was just the crowd being a crowd. But I I I do want to say Josh DeMarro was really impressive. he he opened the the the big panel last night at the Honda Center and I just he's I feel like His presentation, he really gets I mean, you would hope he really gets Disney. He's the new CEO, but he he gets what we love about Disney as fans. And I feel like he showed an understanding of that that I feel like we haven't heard from leadership in the same way in a very long time. So I I'm very hopeful and excited for this next chapter. And man, he put on a great show. It was a really good show. Craig: Mm-hmm. Rob & Erick: and I think we got a lot of that to talk about. So what what's next on the on the agenda, Craig? Craig: Well, I guess we had some imagineers, Joe Roadie and Joan Hartwood, talking about the new tropical Americas coming to Animal Kingdom. You know, well Joe Roadie is Rob & Erick: Yes. Craig: is Mr Animal Kingdom, so the fact he's coming back for this is super exciting. But I'd love to hear more about that. Rob & Erick: Well yeah, my sense is he's more there as like an in an advisory capacity. I don't think he's actually i in active development right now. It'd be awesome if he were. But I don't I think he's just kinda Craig: Right. But but still as long as he's he's his ear his ideas are in there and people are listening to him. Rob & Erick: Yeah, well it it was it was really interesting because what he talked about was what we kind of had pulled w we we discussed this land yesterday in the show. We said that this really felt like a kind of a a magical version of reality. And he said, Well, in fact this is we really used magical realism as our our you know, source of inspiration for for building out this land. Of course, Encanto, which is one of the anchors of this land, that story is magical realism, which you have, if you're not familiar with that genre, it's a it's a very it's it's a it's a tradition in in Latin American culture for for many years and in Latin American storytelling. But basically it's it's a genre where you're in the real world but magical things just happen and it's just taken for granted that magic is a real thing, you know, in your life. And that was kind of the the source that they started from as they developed tropical Americas. And I think it's perfect because you know we were talking yesterday about how you know, Africa and Asia feel very much like, you know, a a representation of of a real part of the world. Whereas obviously Avatar brought us into this fantastical realm and I feel like Tropical America is is the perfect bridge between the two. And it when he explained when they explained it, it made perfect sense that of course, that's a Latin American tradition. It it it makes sense that this would be the place that we would do this. So I'm really excited about that land. And yeah. We also got to see a close-up look at the ride vehicle for the Encanto attraction. And we're gonna share some photos later today in the Patreon live chat. but it's what's cool about the ride vehicles is there it's it's you know how in the movie Casita pulls things together. You know, Casita will like grab a chair and bring it in for someone or like pull the And you can tell that Casita has just made these ride vehicles out of like pieces of the house, just like slapped them together so Craig: Mm-hmm. Like Rob & Erick: you have something to ride in. And I just it's just so charming and I can't wait to see that ride. But Craig: And is it is it confirmed that it is trackless? Is that what it's gonna be? Rob & Erick: I did not. So the the cool thing about D twenty three is you get to speak they'll have one of the Imagineers at each of the stations who's working on that attraction. Unfortunately, when I was at the Enkanto when there was not an Imagineer present, so I didn't get to ask about anything like that. I do have some details about some of the others, but I don't know that for sure. I'm I'm not certain. Craig: Okay. Well, another thing we talked about yesterday is the Star Wars, the Hugo Sweets and Fiz food truck show that's g supposedly going into Galaxy's Edge, but we didn't have a lot of information on it. Did you get some more? Rob & Erick: yeah, and Eric got some amazing photos of that show that we're gonna be posting also on the live. I I just quick plug for the the the Patreon live chat. We're we've been kind of posting all the things in there as we have the ability. Internet here is dicey. you know, when you get three hundred bajillion people inside a small space, internet it's a little finicky. But whenever we come out of that space, we've been posting and we'll continue to do that. But I can't wait to share with you some. Eric's amazing photos. What what did you think of that show? Did you I personally enjoy it a lot, like being able just to see Grogu like coming out? it was it was good. Yeah, if you've seen The Mandalorian and Grogu yet, there's a scene there where they're at a food truck, essentially a a a space food truck, an interstellar Star Wars food truck. And it's I'm not sure what the the the character that that that was running the food truck is almost sloth like with multiple arms. but imagineering just created that food truck and created that character as an animatronic character and added in Grogu and just built this little show. And they don't have any purpose for it. It was just it was almost like a a a a fun project to see if they could do it and how it would turn out. So we don't know where that's gonna go. I did get to speak to the imagineer one of the imagineers who worked on it. And they said, well, you know how if you go into Doc Andar's, you know, there's Doc Ondar is there and and you get to be part of his world. And we're hopeful that someday maybe our food truck concept will get turned into, you know, He'll get upgraded to his own space somewhere in Galaxy's Edge and Batuu, and this will become an anchor part of that experience. so I think that that might be the future that we see of it. It might be maybe it's gonna get added into Docking Bay seven, or maybe it's gonna be something completely new. But it's adorable. It's a really cute show. And what I also loved about it, it runs it it feels like it's running on a loop, but then you when you watch it, different things happen every time. So I I sat there for a very long time and nothing repeated itself. So it's it's a very well done show. Craig: Very exciting. so I need to know about your tomorrowland predictions for sure. Rob & Erick: Well it Craig: What w what have you learned anything more? Do you have you refined your predictions? Rob & Erick: I did. I was thankfully when when I was there at the carouselic progress exhibit in Horizons one of the imagineers who worked to develop that the the the redo of Carousel of Progress was there. And I just kind of I had made a prediction in our recent jamboree. My prediction is I think we're going to see unveiled tonight at the big experiences panel. I think we're gonna see a new vision for Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. and my reason for that is we just saw Buzz redone. Obviously, Tron has come in relatively recently. Now Carousel of Progress is getting some love, and there's been rumors that we were going to see a new Space Mountain potentially announced at this. and when I looked at the Carousel of Progress artwork, you look at that final scene that they're showing. It's very, it has a a lot of nature brought into the space. Like it's very, whereas I feel like the old vision of Tomorrowland had always been very techie. I mean, even the trees in Tomorrowland are like robot trees that that are meant to be battery energy harvesting things. Like it was all Jetsons and not very, you know, in touch with nature. And I thought maybe this is a window into where they're going. And so I I took the opportunity to chat with this imagineer and he was like, he was like, Well, I can't say anything. He's like, but I will tell you that I think you're gonna be happy with the things that we're working on. So I don't know if that was a confirmation that that maybe I was on to something, or maybe it's something that they're just working on long term. But he did say that yes, n nature. is a much bigger part of the current vision of tomorrow than it has been probably in previous years. He also spoke about that costume that Jessica did not enjoy. Craig: Mm-hmm. Yeah, neither of us did. Rob & Erick: Just had very strong feelings about the so the costumes that are on display are from different eras. And the the inspiration for them was the original carousella progress attraction. So the shirt that that I think John is the character's name, is that right? The the main character. Yeah, it the shirt that Craig: Yeah. Yeah, John and Sarah. Rob & Erick: yeah, the shirt that John is wearing is Harkens back to that original shirt he wore in in the first iteration of the attraction. And they kind of took inspiration from so that's why I think maybe it was a surprising choice. you know, but it was it was to kind of honor the the first, since they're changing so much. Craig: So so the costume that he is in that they showed, that's definitely for the final scene. 'Cause it's very sick. I mean, it could fit in the first scene which is gonna be in the sixties, which is where the last the original carousel ended. Rob & Erick: I think no, I think I think I unless I mistook it, I think he what he's wearing is actually the first scene. Like the the the the space age sixties, you know, or yeah, the the moon landing scene. And what she's wearing is the final. But if Craig: Okay. Rob & Erick: you look at them, they they kind of they have a similar color palette, they have a similar sensibility to them. And I think Craig: Mm-hmm. Rob & Erick: that's what they were going for was to have a cohesive feel of the the costuming. Even though they reflect different time periods, there's a thread that connects them. And and the thread was based on inspiration from that original attraction. So I think that was that was the explanation for why, you know, maybe it was not what we were expecting. Craig: Mm-hmm. Yeah, that's that's really interesting. I mean, especially we're talking about the bringing nature into because I remember when they were At Disneyland. That was a big thing. Like, you know, they wanted to show more nature as far as, you know, being part of the future. But that whole redo was a mess. That w happened during the Paul Pressler era. it it was everything just kind of fell apart and nothing got built the way it was supposed to. So it was a kind of a big flop. but yeah, I I think if they're doing it mindfully, I think it's a great thing to bring in the nature elements to the mid century modern aesthetic of it, so Rob & Erick: Yeah, and and and you know, they already started to do it, you know, a a while back also at Disney World. I mean, if you look at the the the latest version of Spaceship Earth, the the final when you do that little, you know, interactive thing at the end where you pick your future. You answer the questions and it builds your future. All of those were very all had like a strong nature element to it. So I think you're right. This is something that they've been developing for a long, long time. But I think now we're gonna finally start to see that better represented in Magic Kingdom and Disney World. My my hoping. Craig: Yeah. Yeah, and I I I'm glad they are going back a little bit to the mid century modern aesthetic 'cause that just says tomorrowland to me. Like that's where it started in the fifties and at Disneyland. So I'm I'm glad they they brought back the white, they brought back the the clean lines. So but bring some greenery into that. Great. Perfect. So speaking of the future, where we learn some more about the new Stark flight lab ride coming into Disneyland or Disney California Adventure. Rob & Erick: yes, and I have a correction from yesterday's show. we weren't sure It I I had seen video of the the arm in motion, but I didn't remember it moving through the space. and so I was like, I think you're just kind of there and it just kind of whips you around. No, it it does. We saw a full model of it and I chatted with the imagineer who was working on that one. And it's very cool. Basically, your ride vehicle is not attached to the arm, it's independent, and you're gonna move through space on that ride vehicle. The arm is gonna come in And lock onto you and pick you up and fly you around and then potentially put you back down and you'll continue on, and then another arm might pick you up. But it it was it looked very, very very there's there, you're definitely moving through a theme space, and I wasn't sure about that yesterday, but that does seem to be the case. but yeah. That look did did which which of the attractions that we saw, which one and the one that you're the most excited about experiencing, Eric? I mean here in Disney World or just all the ones that you saw, yeah. I I think I'm I will be very excited to do the one well for the casita, just the animatronics look that they are going to be amazing. but the other one that it's making me excited is the Lion's King Lion King one. yeah. just like the concept of it. it it looks fantastic. You know, like the the tree of life version of Rafiki Rafiki i sorry the the tree of life version that they have over there that that that they are going to have it looks amazing. Yeah. That one is essentially it it's the Lion King version of Tiana's Bayou Adventure slash splash mountain. I mean it it looks like it's probably a very similar ride mechanic structure, but obviously themed to the Lion King. And and really they they showed some vignettes and as Eric said they it look stunning. It's gonna be a really beautiful ride. So I'm excited about that as well. Craig: Very cool. and going back to Disney's Hollywood studios, we've got them new monsters inkland and we learned a little bit more about the critters, the little monsters that are gonna be hanging around. Rob & Erick: Yeah. there did you I I thought they were adorable. Did you did you like when you saw them up close in person? One of them I it was like the squirrel. It's scary to me. But again, other than that, like the pigeon, I have seen it in the movie which I find it like funny. and the bunny was adorable. The bunny absolutely it's absolutely adorable. But yeah. The three eared bunny is very cute. I I do agree with you though, Craig. Yesterday you said that they look more like mutant animals rather than like Craig: Mm-hmm. Rob & Erick: monster animals. I I when I looked at it again I was like, Yeah, I can I can see where you would come away with that. But they're they're really cute. Craig: Mm-hmm. Well I yeah, I think they're definitely gearing it toward a younger audience too, so which is totally fine and and helpful in this in Hollywood studios, I think. That'd be a if it is skewing younger, I think that's a good Rob & Erick: Yeah, I'm not sure if that coaster is gonna skew younger. I do wanna add Craig: no, no. Rob & Erick: before we go on with this, I I we we should have mentioned that the the Flume ride that's the Lion King, that's gonna be in Disneyland Paris. That's where you'll find that one. and this one that we're talking about obviously is gonna be at Disney's Hollywood Studios, the the Monstropolis. Yeah. But I we had speculated in yesterday's show that maybe those critters were gonna be living in the world itself, like out outside of the attractions and the imagine you're confirmed that that was the case that you're gonna you're gonna find these little monster critters as you explore Monstropolis itself so I think that's very exciting. Craig: how are they I mean, are there just gonna be like static figurines? Are they gonna be costume characters, animatronics? Rob & Erick: They were very cagey about that. so I don't know. They that the I I didn't ask that question, but the person who was sitting next standing next to me did. And the imagineer just kind of, you know, that to be fair, you know, th they have to be careful about how much they reveal Craig: Mm. Rob & Erick: like they're The imagineers that are there don't know what they're authorized to say and not all the time, you know. So he th they were very much like, Well, you know, they're part of this world. You know, the c the critters live in this world. So, you know, it it was w we didn't get a lot of detail on that. Craig: Mm-hmm. Well, speaking of strange critters, we're getting new in the new cars land, Piston Peak, we've got the character car riders. How are we gonna say that? Carritors, carritters, carritters, okay. They Rob & Erick: Car ridders, car riders, car ridders. So Craig: look adorable too. Rob & Erick: yeah, I I just kind of I didn't even I stumbled upon it. I was so I was looking at the model and the model is massive and I took a bajillion videos and I got close and I pulled out and all I'll we'll post the full video on Patreon when we get back home but I put a lot of screenshots in there and I was looking at all these little details and in one detail I was like what is this thing? Because it was like it looked like little tire inner tubes floating. in in hot spring. And so I asked the imagineer who was there, I said, What what is this representing? Are those like because you know it kind of makes sense. They're cars, they have tires, so maybe they use tires as floats, much like we do. And he says, no, those are those are car ridters. And I was like, They're car riders? And he was like, yeah, cars in cars world, they have critters. Like we have critters in in nature. And those are car riders. They're they're cars critters. And he pointed out that there the one of the one of the mascots of the land is going to be a car ridder. It's gonna be a it's kind of like a hybrid of a goat and like a tractor, would you say? Yeah. but he's adorable. He's an adorable goat tractor. But I Craig: That's it. Rob & Erick: I can't wait for you guys to see, you know, if you're if you're on Patreon, look at the live chat and just take a look at those photos that we posted. There's so much love put into this world and I can't I can't wait to walk through it. I I'm really excited now about what's coming. So the other thing that you mentioned yesterday was how shocked you were that it was going to be its own you thought it was going to be its own land. It's not. Craig: Mm. All right. Rob & Erick: At least right now, I cause I I I asked that question and then I heard other people ask the same question. So we're not the only ones who are thinking it. And they're like, Well, is this still gonna be Frontierland? 'Cause this feels like Piston Peak is its own land. And every imagineer I heard two imagineers speak about this and they said, no, this is frontierland. This is front p Piston Peak is just a section of Frontierland, which I don't know why, because it f it has its own entrance, it feels apart from the rest of Frontierland, it has its Craig: Mm-hmm. Rob & Erick: own theming. I I think it's a strange choice, but at least for right now, they're very insistent. This is all part of Frontierland. Craig: Already got the bayou in the frontier, so I guess Rob & Erick: Ha ha. Craig: anthropomorphic cars totally belong there too. so I'm gonna go a little off script here because I'm not sure if you guys have heard this one, especially Eric. And it has to do with the new DVC resort at Lakeshore Lodge. We've been hearing a lot more about it. Okay, yeah, yeah. so for those for Rob & Erick: Yeah. Mm-hmm. That's what I'm wearing this. Craig: those who are only listening, right? So Lakeshore lives, they're building these like really cool A-frame cabins going along the lake. No one knew what they were gonna look like, but we've got some information on that. And we're all those the decor in all those cabins are going to be themed to Brother Bear, Eric's favorite. So I just wanna make sure you you had heard that. But then when I saw your shirt, I assumed you did, but I wanted to mention Rob & Erick: Hey. Craig: it anyway. Rob & Erick: So the only sad thing about that is when we saw that Brother Bear was gonna be part of Lakeshore Lodge, like, this is gonna be our new favorite place to stay at Disney World, because Eric loves Brother Bear so much. And then when we found out it was those huge A-frame cabins, it's like okay. Well, that might not be a regular place that we stay, 'cause that would be a little bit pricey, but I think now Craig: Mm-hmm. Rob & Erick: we definitely have to stay there at least once to experience it. So Craig: Maybe centrally located for the Jamboree next year. Rob & Erick: maybe. Maybe. I mean the the thing that I'm most Craig: Clive. Rob & Erick: excited about is just like it's definitely receiving some love. Like Brotherberry is receiving Craig: Okay, I'm each other. Rob & Erick: love. and I'm really hoping that they are going to bring merchandise out of it. So Craig: Mm-hmm. Always a good thing. okay, did we want to talk about movies or Rob & Erick: Yeah, I I just really quickly I know we're our show is really, you know, we we cover the park, so that's what we focused on. But I think we do have Craig: Is it? Rob & Erick: to mention that the big event yesterday was the Disney Entertainment panel at the end of the night. And Holy guacamole, there were so many huge celebrities, you know, i just a who's who of incredible actors and performers. You know, the the Jonas brothers were there, you know, like from music. There there was just it was it was really kind of breathtaking how many amazing people showed up. So Anne Hathaway, Robert Downey Jr., Jodie Foster was there to reveal that she's gonna be a character in the movie Hex that's coming out Thanksgiving. Craig: Yeah. Rob & Erick: Phoebe Buffet, from Friends Craig: Ha ha ha Rob & Erick: was was was there to promote Romeo and Michelle's high school reunion two The let's see, I'm I'm forgetting so many people because they're just there Ryan Gosling. Ryan Gosling was was on the stage. I'm a huge Ryan Gosling fan. So that was but they were all there to talk about really exciting projects that are coming. And you know, there there's there's some really great movies and TV shows on deck. the one that, you know, w well yeah, we we can do just a quick Eric, you wanna do a quick rundown of the things that we saw because I think you have some notes there. Absolutely. so from the upcoming upcoming movies and series, we're going to have the Incredibles three, Kingdom Hearts, the series, Ghost Market. Which that's Ghost Market is a new original Pixar film. it's the first time that Pixar is ever told a a ghost story. I mean, I think you'd say Coco is kind of a little bit of a ghost story, but this is a more traditional ghost story. Yeah. So Coco Two, the Bluey movie, Tangle live action, Percy Jackson and the Olymp Olympians. the season season three. Yeah. And it's going to be the series of Oswald, they look so freaking yeah, Oswald is finally getting some love. If you're not familiar with the story of Oswald, really quickly, Oswald was it was Walt Disney's first really successful character. but unfortunately it was before he had his own animations, you know, like he before he he had the Walt Disney company in the way that we know it today, he was he was working with other distributors and and they were kind of distributing his work, and in the contract they kind of stole away Oswald. but that was what led him to create Mickey because he had to replace Oswald. And so, you know, the story ended well. But the Walt Disney Company, not that long ago, managed to get the rights to Oswald back. so Walt's original character And now they're creating a brand new series. It's John Favreau is creating it. the scores by Han Zimmer. It looks adorable. And it's a blend of traditional hand-drawn 2D animation with live action and footage. And it just looked really cute. I can't wait to see that. That's gonna be on Disney Plus soon-ish, I think. Yes. Yeah. Okay. So continuing with the list, we're going to have Romy and Michelle too. Ice Age and Boiling Point. Lilo and Stitch 2. Angel is making her appearance. Gato. X-Men cast. Well they show the X-Men cast. Star Wars. They are going to continue with Ahsoka. And with Star Wars, also they are going to have Starfighter. You have a comment about Frozen 3, Rob. Yeah, well, Eric's favorite character we all know is Olaf. He just loves Olaf. He's here. And Craig: That was sarcasm for those who are not watching. Rob & Erick: but it Olaf is going to have a love interest in Frozen 3. That was revealed last night. and the I don't know if this is gonna be part of the movie, but Josh Dad sang a disco love song to his new love in the movie. I don't know if we're gonna hear disco in Frozen 3, but it was really funny. Yeah. Yeah, Samantha. I can't wait to I can't wait to see her. Samantha is the yeah, that's the name of the new the new snow the the the new snow person, snow woman. Craig: really? Of course. Of course, Samantha. Rob & Erick: But I I do yeah, it it was it was an incre I mean Josh Gadd, another, I mean Adina Menzel and and why can I not think of Craig: Kristen Bell. Rob & Erick: Kristen Bell, yes, thank you. and of course I have to mention the hosts of the evening, Kiwi Kwan and Jennifer Goodwin. I as soon as they came out on stage, I was like, Jessica. I wish Jessica was here. They came Jennifer Goodwin came out holding a plush of Judy Hops, and Kihu Kwan had a a plush of Gary the Snake. and it was a very cute moment. but yeah. I don't know if can you see that panel? I don't know if it if it's on Disney Plus. If it is, you should check it out. It was a really amazing show. I will say that we're gonna be Craig: Well I Rob & Erick: back tomorrow with the main event. Yeah. Craig: I know the the big show is tonight, so what are we gonna be talking about tomorrow? Besides the big any Rob & Erick: Well said night. Craig: we don't have a big show. Rob & Erick: Yeah, tonight is the experiences panel. so it'll be Disney Cruise line, it'll be resorts, and for for us most importantly, it's gonna be parks, Disney parks around the world. And I gotta say, almost every question I asked that was a little more probing about the attractions, the imagineer said, well. You might want to see what we hear on on Saturday. so I do think there's gonna be a lot of announcements about what we already know about. I got I don't know if we're gonna hear anything completely brand new, but I will say, Josh Josh kind of, I mean, he said, you know, look, if you think what you're gonna see tonight is amazing, you're gonna see some things tomorrow night that are just gonna Blow your mind. So I don't know. That says to me it's not something we've already seen, right? It says to me we're gonna see Craig: That's it. Rob & Erick: some new things tonight. And of course, we're gonna be talking about those things tomorrow. so we will be back here tomorrow morning with our final day of coverage from D23 for the podcast. and then we will be back with the regular show. it not not this coming week, we will not have a live broadcast, but we will have the show that we recorded before we left. And then we'll continue with live broadcasts on Patreon and after parties the the following week when we're back home. but until then, thanks so much for joining us and don't forget to think happy thoughts, everybody. We'll see you again real soon. you so much.
