  Amazon, iHeartRadio or Spotify. And it is October 21st, 2025.
• 1:09
  And how are you, my friend? I'm good, you know, it's, it's
• 1:19
  weird to have a countdown that's this close and yet I'm not
• 1:24
  making park reservations like my countdown is like 3 days.
• 1:30
  Mean you're going. That's the cruise.
• 1:35
  Yeah. Wow, now you have never done a
• 1:40
  cruise before, correct? No.
• 1:43
  Oh my gosh. You are going to fall in all
• 1:45
  right, you're going to fall in love with this and you know,
• 1:48
  you're doing top notch right off the bat.
• 1:51
  It's like when Tammy and I went on our honeymoon, we did a five
• 1:55
  star resort and it was unbelievable.
• 1:57
  Lived up to it's it's it's rating.
• 2:00
  Then we did it again the year later.
• 2:02
  And then we just wanted, you know, you want to try something
• 2:04
  different. We tried something different and
• 2:06
  it did not even come close to measuring up.
• 2:08
  So you can't go down from here. I mean, so this is it.
• 2:15
  That's it. I do this one.
• 2:17
  What? What's the other?
• 2:18
  What's the big one? Icon of the Seas.
• 2:21
  Now go back to Disney. Yeah.
• 2:23
  Yeah, yeah. See, I've done it.
• 2:25
  So I feel like I can go back and we will.
• 2:29
  I think we will, you know, not just stick to the Disney
• 2:31
  Cruises, although after we go I could change my mind and say,
• 2:35
  yeah, I think what happened now doing just the Royal Caribbean,
• 2:40
  but knowing what I know about the Disney Cruises, Royal was
• 2:44
  perfect for us. We had no complaints.
• 2:47
  The service was was in our minds.
• 2:49
  It was all five star for us. So, I mean, I even look back at
• 2:53
  when I had a steak come to the table and it wasn't quite made
• 2:59
  the way I had asked. So, you know, in a restaurant
• 3:03
  where they, you know, they'll, they'll, I don't know, like the
• 3:06
  sides will kind of stay, but you know, you're waiting on the
• 3:10
  steak and everybody's eating around you.
• 3:12
  It's taking a while. Yeah.
• 3:14
  They, they took the entire plate, all veggies, all sides.
• 3:18
  And I had a full brand new plate with the steak done perfectly
• 3:23
  the way I wanted it in 3 minutes or less.
• 3:27
  Wow. Yes.
• 3:29
  So you know, I can't wait. Do you, do you have an idea of
• 3:33
  like what you're looking forward to most?
• 3:38
  Is it the relaxation? Is it just viewing nothing but
• 3:42
  ocean when you're out there on the top deck and not seeing land
• 3:46
  the sail away party, the food, the island.
• 3:52
  Now, are you doing both islands or one island?
• 3:55
  So we are to answer your first question, yes, all of that.
• 4:01
  OK. All of that, the relaxation, the
• 4:06
  the pool, the water slide, you know, Finley, of course, pool
• 4:13
  and water slide. That's all she's talking about.
• 4:16
  Her going to the kids, the kids club.
• 4:22
  I know she's going to have a good time there.
• 4:24
  The food, I just keep hearing it's amazing.
• 4:28
  One thing that I don't understand is that our server is
• 4:36
  the same server no matter which restaurant we sit down at for
• 4:41
  the entire. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 4:43
  So what Disney does is because I've done a lot of research now,
• 4:47
  I could almost book it for someone, but they Disney, Disney
• 4:54
  wants you to experience every restaurant that's not a
• 4:57
  specialty dining. So they kind of know where
• 5:01
  you're going to be from night to night.
• 5:03
  And that I think I'm pretty sure that's how they assign, they
• 5:05
  keep that particular cast member following you.
• 5:10
  Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, Trish is 11 days away from
• 5:17
  her trip, which is phenomenal. You had a question, though.
• 5:21
  It was on somebody's stream. I can't remember what the
• 5:23
  question was. If you remember what the
• 5:25
  question was, drop it in there and I will answer it for you
• 5:29
  because I was going to answer it, but I didn't feel right
• 5:33
  answering it on the stream that you were on.
• 5:37
  Yeah, we're very excited about about the entire thing and we
• 5:41
  have a lot. So we're visiting Cozumel.
• 5:44
  I have only been out of the country once and I think I was 3
• 5:49
  or 4 and that was to a wedding in Montreal.
• 5:56
  Do you need a passport for that from Mexico?
• 6:01
  So because you're on the, I asked Nick and he said, no, not
• 6:09
  really, but we did all all three of us got our passports.
• 6:12
  So we, we, we are good to go, which is good because I don't
• 6:16
  have my REAL ID. You know that whole fiasco you
• 6:21
  had to get your REAL ID in May? And I don't know about where you
• 6:26
  guys are, but the DMV here, they are months away from getting an
• 6:32
  appointment and they go like REAL.
• 6:34
  If you think Disney Dining and the Beacon Barrel reservations
• 6:37
  are crazy to get, try getting a reservation to the DMV right
• 6:41
  now. It's ridiculous.
• 6:44
  Yeah, Shirley says. It's just, it's just a birth
• 6:45
  certificate if you're cruising, but there are perks.
• 6:49
  If you have a passport, they do have a separate line when
• 6:52
  you're, when you're leaving the cruise, when you disembark and
• 6:58
  you're kind of going through their, their version of customs
• 7:02
  or whatever. If you have a passport, there's
• 7:05
  a separate line and it's not very long at all.
• 7:07
  At least that was our experience.
• 7:09
  OK, so good to know. Definitely utilize that.
• 7:14
  Trish must know something I don't know.
• 7:16
  She's looking forward to steak in Mexico.
• 7:18
  I've never known Mexico to be known for their steak, so she'll
• 7:22
  have to let us know how it is. Yeah, definitely.
• 7:25
  Let us know how it is. I had the chicken there.
• 7:31
  I can't remember what Catherine had, but I like the the chicken
• 7:34
  there. So yeah, let us know how the
• 7:35
  steak is. TT says no, no real Idi.
• 7:39
  Don't think we have real IDs. How do you know?
• 7:44
  It'll say like real ID on it or enhanced ID on it.
• 7:49
  OK. I'll have to look.
• 7:51
  I mean, and that what is that really for?
• 7:53
  Is that just? Is that for travel itself?
• 7:56
  And it is for travel. So I think I spoke about this in
• 8:01
  July. So I didn't have my REAL ID.
• 8:03
  You're supposed to have your REAL ID.
• 8:04
  In May I didn't get my REAL ID, so you had to go through some
• 8:08
  extra screening. Well, I have TSA pre-check, so I
• 8:12
  have less screening than the standard.
• 8:14
  Well, then when I didn't have my Real ID, all I had to do was go
• 8:20
  through kind of the regular line that was the OR not even the
• 8:24
  regular line, just the regular scanner.
• 8:26
  So it wasn't really a big deal. But I have my passport now and I
• 8:30
  have the passport card as well, so no, no biggie.
• 8:35
  And now that I have my passport, or now that we have our
• 8:38
  passport, we can go other places, right?
• 8:41
  Yeah, that, that's pretty awesome.
• 8:43
  Jacob. Jacob has his.
• 8:45
  No, I don't think mine. I don't think mine's a real ID,
• 8:47
  but I'll have to ask about that. Yeah, yeah, it's crazy.
• 8:52
  Jen W says. She has the star on the top.
• 8:54
  Yep, Catherine's is all different.
• 8:56
  Like this whole wait wait wait wait wait wait.
• 8:58
  If you have a star on top, that means you have the real ID.
• 9:01
  That's at least enhanced might be.
• 9:04
  Here's your lesson. This is what the podcast is
• 9:07
  today. We're talking real IDs,
• 9:09
  everybody. Look.
• 9:11
  OK. So that's it.
• 9:12
  That's enhanced, I believe. OK, Yeah.
• 9:15
  And how's and how's that different?
• 9:18
  I don't, I don't know. Maybe someone can tell us the
• 9:21
  podcast or comment or comment. See, listen, I'm going to tell
• 9:24
  you something right now. When we start, we Lawrence has
• 9:27
  no idea what's going to come out of my mouth when we start the
• 9:30
  podcast. That's our that's like, that's
• 9:31
  like our thing over 100 podcasts where I just and I don't even
• 9:35
  know most of the time it's just we go live, I greet you all and
• 9:39
  I say something and then we go from there.
• 9:42
  So yeah, that's that's how that usually goes.
• 9:47
  So. I was just checking to see if I
• 9:48
  had I had the sensor button working just in case.
• 9:51
  You never know what's going to come out of his mouth, so I have
• 9:54
  the sensor button. Beep, beep.
• 10:01
  You know, I mean, we did talk about we did talk about an all
• 10:05
  male podcast, right, Non Disney, you know, Nick, Nick, you, me,
• 10:11
  my brother, all that. It was going to be our version
• 10:13
  of the the view. Just just boy fucking boys.
• 10:19
  Maybe you would need that button?
• 10:23
  Maybe, but. Good thing we're just a little
• 10:26
  bit too busy. Trish says in chat that I think
• 10:30
  it was the Starlight Parade going to be happening on
• 10:32
  November 4th. I checked and there is nothing
• 10:35
  showing. I was looking forward to it.
• 10:38
  Yes, carne asada New York strip sounds great.
• 10:40
  You'll have to give us your review, Trish.
• 10:42
  Yeah, definitely. Give us your review.
• 10:46
  However, Starlight Parade, and I'm glad you said that 'cause
• 10:49
  that is exactly what it was that I was thinking.
• 10:53
  That parade is not going anywhere.
• 10:55
  That cost them millions and millions of dollars.
• 10:58
  Your entertainment schedule is only scheduled or only posted
• 11:02
  about 10 days to 14 days out. So that's why it is not showing
• 11:08
  as of yet. But I can tell you, unless it is
• 11:11
  a party night, which I don't believe that that night is, that
• 11:14
  parade will run at least once if not twice that night, weather
• 11:17
  permitting that parading and you know.
• 11:20
  And I believe what that cast member told me at at guest
• 11:23
  services a few weeks ago, he's like, this parade is not even
• 11:27
  complete yet. There will be more floats.
• 11:29
  He said Disney wanted to get out so many for now and then there
• 11:33
  will be more floats coming. So like you said, this is going
• 11:37
  nowhere. It's not a temporary thing.
• 11:38
  No, no. Speaking of something that's
• 11:41
  temporary, can we talk about before we get into this and
• 11:43
  that, can we talk about some news that dropped for the 250th
• 11:46
  anniversary of America? This semi quincentennial.
• 11:53
  Semi Quincentennial. Who's with me?
• 11:56
  I mean, I can go down the list. What's one thing that we've I've
• 12:00
  been hammering live on stream for what, a year and a half?
• 12:03
  At least about one in every five times I leave Soren.
• 12:07
  What do I say? I go.
• 12:09
  We could. Really like is bet Oh.
• 12:11
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's when I go by Liberty,
• 12:14
  Liberty Square. But I said, you know, you, we,
• 12:18
  how cool would it be to do a soaring around America?
• 12:21
  You know, let's go through New York.
• 12:22
  Let's go through here. Let's go through there.
• 12:24
  I think it would be a great idea.
• 12:26
  Disney dropped that this week. So thanks for listening.
• 12:30
  Yeah, so it says summer. I'm going to hope that that
• 12:35
  means like Memorial Day through Labor Day, at least, you know,
• 12:40
  the actual full summer. But that, that's going to be
• 12:44
  pretty cool. It's going to be pretty cool.
• 12:47
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's going to be exciting.
• 12:48
  And I, you know, you look at some comments and someone was
• 12:50
  commenting. I'm so sad about this, you know,
• 12:54
  come on, man. You've seen Soren a bunch of
• 12:56
  times. It's it's OK.
• 12:58
  We can do something different for a little bit.
• 13:01
  It's OK. Yeah, I mean, it's a special
• 13:03
  event. It's it's like, you know,
• 13:05
  plussing up the show, plussing up the attraction, plussing up
• 13:09
  the ride. This is this is just that, you
• 13:12
  know, look how busy was Soren when they brought Soren over
• 13:16
  California or back, right? Same thing's going to happen.
• 13:21
  And this is brand new. None of us have seen this.
• 13:26
  Yeah, this is the first time something brand new, as far as
• 13:28
  we know has come right since since Soren around the world.
• 13:32
  So that's exciting. Can't wait to see it.
• 13:35
  It'll, it'll probably be the latest, greatest technology.
• 13:38
  It'll look super sharp and, and, and be really great.
• 13:42
  Jacob said that they he did see some people posting things like
• 13:46
  curved statue of liberties and things like that.
• 13:50
  I'm like, hey, you wouldn't have it any other way you.
• 13:53
  Know yeah, I saw the the Space Needle there's one of the Space
• 13:56
  Needle curved. OK, OK, so you know, what do you
• 14:00
  think? What do you, what do you think
• 14:04
  will they'll take us? I mean, obviously and if this is
• 14:07
  true, I think Jacob said that they they did say that they'll
• 14:09
  be ending near or over the Statue of Liberty.
• 14:13
  And I think you saying the Space Needle would be 1.
• 14:18
  I would want to say like, you know, some of the mountains are
• 14:21
  red rocks or whatever, but they've done that already.
• 14:24
  Jacob suggested or saw that they he saw some.
• 14:28
  I think one thing you could confirm is they're doing Mount
• 14:30
  Rushmore. Oh, that makes sense.
• 14:35
  Yeah, I could see that you saw. Like a behind the scene shot or
• 14:39
  something of a helicopter with the the the camera hanging
• 14:42
  'cause that's how they did the last one flying by Mount
• 14:45
  Rushmore. Yeah, I, I think the Rockies,
• 14:52
  you know, see the Rockies. Gosh, that's so much.
• 14:59
  Take us down Route 66. Yeah, yeah, Everything that
• 15:04
  signifies America, right. I I, I feel like you got to see
• 15:07
  a corn field there. Yeah, maybe smell from corn, you
• 15:10
  know, maybe out in the wild, in the Wild West, mid, mid America,
• 15:15
  whatever, you know, just where wild horses are or something and
• 15:17
  you kind of come down the other. Horse, I think it's going to be
• 15:20
  pretty cool ending at the Statue of Liberty.
• 15:23
  Totally. You know, makes sense as well.
• 15:27
  Somebody said, well, we get the orange Groves in this version.
• 15:32
  Maybe I don't. I mean it again, I think it's
• 15:35
  all new stuff, so I don't know. But then maybe that's kind of a
• 15:39
  little Easter egg that they throw in there.
• 15:40
  Who knows? That's true, you always have to
• 15:43
  be aware of Easter eggs with Disney so.
• 15:46
  Yellowstone, Roderick says. And the Washington Monument.
• 15:51
  Those are good. Hey, I like the smell of corn.
• 15:54
  You know, I do it. Yeah.
• 15:58
  They got to put, they have to put, they have to put smells in
• 16:01
  there. So we'd have to, they'd have to
• 16:02
  show something that smells. Although I don't notice any
• 16:06
  smells when you and not every clip I feel like in Soaring
• 16:10
  Around the World has a smell to it.
• 16:12
  Now what can we think of three? 4 You've got the Fiji, the Fiji
• 16:18
  Islands, you've got Taj Mahal, you've got the grass.
• 16:27
  Yeah. Yeah, maybe it is on Week 3.
• 16:35
  If we're missing one, tell let us know.
• 16:37
  Yeah, you know, maybe, maybe. Well, if they're going to end on
• 16:41
  the Statue of Liberty, maybe they get there by going through
• 16:43
  New York and you fly real low in Manhattan and then you have the
• 16:48
  smell of the garbage. Yes.
• 16:51
  I mean, it'd be authentic, right?
• 16:53
  Oh, the subway in the summertime, The subway.
• 16:59
  Amazing. I have AI have a real fast
• 17:02
  subway story. So the kids grew up with slow
• 17:06
  monorails pulling into station, right?
• 17:08
  You know how slow they come in now.
• 17:11
  Even I forgot as a person who was a student in Boston and
• 17:15
  worked a few years in Boston, I had to take the train.
• 17:18
  So I kind of forgot how fast it comes in, too.
• 17:22
  So took the kids to New York a few years ago, and we're
• 17:26
  standing on the platform and there's nothing to be seen.
• 17:29
  And you can kind of hear the train approaching a little bit,
• 17:31
  a little bit closer, a little bit closer.
• 17:34
  Then all of a sudden, like a cartoon, just like a big blur,
• 17:40
  and Jill jumped out of her shorts.
• 17:41
  It was like, whoa. I laughed.
• 17:45
  I was like, yeah, I forgot it was that fast when it came
• 17:48
  through. Yeah, A.
• 17:50
  Little train, but I wouldn't mind if the cameras swoop down
• 17:52
  through the city of New York. Times Square.
• 17:55
  Times Square. Times Square.
• 17:57
  Maybe we could go up Times Square and then like take a turn
• 18:00
  or something and the vehicles could turn and then we finish
• 18:03
  with the Statue of Liberty. Yeah, there you got the Disney
• 18:06
  Store. Is Disney Store still in Times
• 18:08
  Square? I think so, I think.
• 18:11
  It's one of the only ones, yeah. And we've been to that one.
• 18:14
  We've been to that one. There's a vlog on it.
• 18:17
  And for the longest time, for some reason, it was the most
• 18:19
  viewed vlog we've ever had. Oh wow.
• 18:23
  Just a simple Disney Store one, yeah?
• 18:26
  Who knows, right? You never know.
• 18:30
  Yeah. So Speaking of that, I'll say
• 18:31
  quick. I just had no time to finish the
• 18:34
  vlog for Halloween Horror Nights, so I'm just going to
• 18:39
  finish it as soon as I can and I'll let you all know when it's
• 18:41
  coming out. Maybe this, maybe we'll shoot
• 18:43
  for this Monday. I'll just say for this Monday
• 18:44
  and I'll make sure I get that done.
• 18:46
  We had some things come up over the weekend that I couldn't get
• 18:49
  to it. Hey, you'll have no despod next
• 18:52
  week give you back that. Tuesday evening, there's some,
• 18:58
  Oh yeah, there's some other announcements right there.
• 19:00
  Yeah, no, Despod Lawrence is going to do it from the from the
• 19:04
  ship. Tuesday is Catherine's birthday.
• 19:09
  Ah, so well, happy birthday to her.
• 19:13
  We will have, we will have a little, little bit of stuff
• 19:16
  going on that day. We'll be in, we will be sailing
• 19:19
  that day. It's our, we're sailing from
• 19:24
  Mexico to Castaway Cay. So we will be in the water all
• 19:28
  day. So got some stuff so.
• 19:32
  That was that was back to my original question.
• 19:33
  I wasn't even thinking about like Mexico or anything.
• 19:35
  So is it 1 Disney Island you're doing or are you doing both?
• 19:38
  One so you'd. So yeah, yeah, we leave pull out
• 19:43
  of port on Saturday, Sunday we're in the water, Monday,
• 19:48
  Mexico, Tuesday in the water, Wednesday Castaway K, and then
• 19:54
  Thursday traveling back to Florida.
• 19:59
  All right, I'll tell you this right now.
• 20:02
  As we move on, you're not going to have enough time.
• 20:06
  Time's going to go by fast. You think, you think, you know,
• 20:10
  they'll be plenty of play time in the pool.
• 20:13
  And then you know, Finley wants to go play down the thing, the
• 20:16
  kids thing, it's going to go fast.
• 20:20
  I mean, I always review every vacation, but it means you're
• 20:22
  having fun. You're doing something fun at
• 20:24
  all. Times.
• 20:25
  That's right. Our first experience was like, I
• 20:28
  didn't get in the pool much and I was like, what happened?
• 20:31
  There was no relaxation. We were afraid that we, there
• 20:34
  would be too much downtime and, and there just wasn't.
• 20:37
  And being a Disney cruise, maybe there's more to do.
• 20:42
  I don't know. I didn't play any of the sports.
• 20:43
  I mean, they had on the top deck, they had basketball,
• 20:45
  volleyball. I didn't do any of that.
• 20:48
  But I know what we did have ship time.
• 20:50
  We we were looking to do things, you know, we were ziplining
• 20:53
  across the ship. We were at rock climbing and
• 20:57
  doing all those things. So we could have we could have
• 21:00
  allowed. If you got some time, you got to
• 21:02
  kind of pick your things, pick wisely.
• 21:04
  Yeah, we have some stuff planned.
• 21:05
  I can't say. Yeah, you'll find out on Tuesday
• 21:08
  what we did. I'll bring you plenty.
• 21:10
  Or Tuesday. You'll find out two Tuesdays
• 21:13
  from today. Are you doing Oh, and you're do
• 21:17
  we confirm Are you doing the sail away live on living in dis.
• 21:21
  I'm doing the sail away live but on my channel because I don't
• 21:24
  know what time it's going to be. Oh yeah, I'm guessing 5 and we
• 21:31
  would be in the park. Yeah, we'd be in the park
• 21:34
  already. So that, yeah, we, yeah, we
• 21:36
  started to talk about that TM and I, that wouldn't really work
• 21:38
  unless you sent it over to us. Yeah, we could.
• 21:41
  Just be perfect day for everybody to be watching on the
• 21:46
  multi view where you could be in the parks watching Corey and
• 21:50
  also taking a look at our party going on so.
• 21:54
  OK, Yeah, I can check that out. Come over and and check that
• 21:57
  out. Yeah, you know, while you're on
• 21:59
  it. Yeah, so I'll do that.
• 22:00
  We'll take some video and we'll show it and and plenty of
• 22:04
  pictures. Catherine will take about 10,000
• 22:06
  pictures that she leaves on her phone and never does anything
• 22:09
  with. So we'll have plenty of those
• 22:12
  for you. Don't worry, don't worry.
• 22:16
  Even Finley has a vlogging camera and I'm sure she'll take
• 22:20
  with her. That's right.
• 22:24
  All right, we got a little game of this that today.
• 22:27
  Figured we would do another game.
• 22:29
  We did what was the last one We did O20 questions and so I
• 22:34
  figured we would do another game of this or that so all of you in
• 22:39
  chat can participate. You let us know whether you
• 22:44
  would pick this or that. I will put it up on screen.
• 22:49
  I don't have slides, so I'll put it in chat and then I'll put
• 22:52
  that up on the screen for all of you to see and you guys can
• 22:56
  vote. I have not seen most of these.
• 22:59
  I pulled them from AII. Was going to say the bots I'll.
• 23:08
  Let the bots get you. I pulled them from AI, so I just
• 23:13
  let it do what it did. So that I was kind of surprised
• 23:17
  as well. So all right, so here we go.
• 23:23
  The first one, this is going to be in the parks.
• 23:28
  This has to do with parks and attractions.
• 23:31
  So we'll start out with an easy one.
• 23:34
  What's an easy one for me? I don't know if it's going to be
• 23:36
  an easy one for Corey. No ice cream sandwiches.
• 23:41
  No ice cream sandwiches, so this first one is probably an easy
• 23:46
  one. For our chat, it is Magic
• 23:51
  Kingdom or Epcot. Yeah, it's, it's definitely.
• 23:59
  I'm just going to cut to the chase and say Magic Kingdom.
• 24:02
  I figured. Rather than go through, drag it
• 24:05
  all out and end up at Magic Kingdom anyway.
• 24:08
  But I love, I love Epcot so much too.
• 24:11
  It's just a, it's a different mindset.
• 24:12
  It's a different vibe. Like tomorrow night we're at
• 24:15
  Magic and you know, I'm excited for that.
• 24:18
  Everything Magic brings, it's a different thought, different
• 24:20
  vibe, different pace and caught. I feel like more relaxed, laid
• 24:24
  back, a little more laid back, different mindset.
• 24:27
  And I'm excited to be there on Saturdays and.
• 24:30
  You know, what's cool is that, you know, if you think back to
• 24:32
  when they were just two parks, they really did feel very
• 24:37
  different. You know, like you went to Magic
• 24:40
  for the magic, the princesses, the castle and you went to Epcot
• 24:45
  for that edutainment world showcase, future world.
• 24:49
  So it really was, you know, very different experience and that
• 24:53
  that's what was cool. I think the lines are kind of
• 24:56
  blurred a little bit now, especially with, you know, a lot
• 25:00
  of IP and all the parks that those lines have kind of
• 25:04
  blurred. But I I think Epcot still wins
• 25:08
  out for me. Epcot by centimeters, said Dole
• 25:12
  Whip Dave. There you go, Roderick says
• 25:16
  Epcot Magic Magic Kingdom 1A so Epcot one Magic Kingdom 1A.
• 25:23
  Pamela says MK as well. I'm going to start with the
• 25:26
  hardest one. I thought that was the easy one.
• 25:31
  All right, so here's here's your next one.
• 25:33
  I don't know if this gets easier or harder.
• 25:36
  It is Haunted Mansion or Pirates.
• 25:40
  So you started out with the two hardest questions for me of all
• 25:43
  time, and I've just learned how to manage them.
• 25:47
  And this again was for me by centimeters or 1A11B.
• 25:52
  So I've settled on Haunted Mansion.
• 25:55
  It's just, yeah, Haunted Mansion is my favorite.
• 25:59
  And you know what, it what edges it out?
• 26:04
  I just just just overall, I guess the the the creativity of
• 26:09
  the haunted of the Haunted Mansion, the characters inside
• 26:12
  the catchy, catchy song. I mean, yeah, pirates has one
• 26:15
  too, but this is a little catchier still more popular.
• 26:19
  And they by far do a much better job for their merch that Haunted
• 26:24
  Mansion. Agreed.
• 26:26
  I thought you were going to say the song.
• 26:27
  I think the song wins it out for me.
• 26:31
  You know, if I'm if I'm comparing the two songs.
• 26:33
  Haunted by a mile. The storyline on both is great.
• 26:40
  It's it, it is, it is, it is tougher than I thought, but I
• 26:44
  would say haunted. I would say haunted.
• 26:49
  And you know what else? I think haunted also changes,
• 26:52
  right? Because the the hitchhiking
• 26:55
  ghost at the end could do something different so you have
• 27:00
  a different experience. The ending is always.
• 27:04
  Different. Yeah, Yeah, the ending is always
• 27:05
  different there. So good one on that one.
• 27:08
  All right, here's your next one. It's going to be Monorail or Sky
• 27:14
  Liner. Sky liner.
• 27:17
  I know it's controversial. Everybody wants to go with the
• 27:20
  classic, but you know, the sky liner is just so neat.
• 27:28
  God, if I say more, I'm just going to get my shovel, dig
• 27:31
  myself even deeper. But when it boils down to it,
• 27:34
  the monorail is just a train. OK, We, we can ride trains
• 27:39
  throughout America. There are not many sky liners we
• 27:42
  can ride. And the sky liner is pretty
• 27:44
  neat. So chance of less people, you
• 27:48
  know, less crowded. That's true that you and your
• 27:51
  family and friends ride alone. Right.
• 27:55
  And maybe the fact that it's new also helps, right?
• 28:00
  Everybody would have wanted to ride the monorail in 71 or, you
• 28:05
  know, 55 over in Disneyland. But we have the skyline, the sky
• 28:10
  liners, you know. How old is it now?
• 28:12
  5? Did it start before 2020?
• 28:17
  It was in the if I if I recall correctly in my memory, I
• 28:21
  believe it's it started construction before COVID and
• 28:26
  then finished up. It was around that time.
• 28:29
  OK. So you know, it's still fairly
• 28:32
  new compared to, you know, the monorail that's 50 years old.
• 28:35
  So yeah, I would say that. All right.
• 28:39
  We're going to move into the resorts now and these are I.
• 28:49
  Remember I remember when the sky liner was being built though
• 28:52
  when I mean we saw foundations in the parking lot.
• 28:55
  Only you know when they and all this.
• 28:58
  All the posts, yeah, and then you.
• 29:00
  See posts coming up. Yeah, it's pretty exciting.
• 29:04
  All right, these are two deluxe resorts, contemporary or
• 29:12
  wilderness lodge. All right, So these are good
• 29:18
  questions for discussion because you know, with the contemporary,
• 29:23
  it has history behind it. It's sure history, but you know,
• 29:28
  do you ask yourself with this decision, if the Contemporary
• 29:32
  opened this year and Wilderness Lodge opened this year, what
• 29:37
  would you think? I mean, contemporary has a
• 29:40
  unique design. It's not, it's not pleasing to
• 29:45
  the eyes. I mean, when you look at the
• 29:50
  construction, the building of Worldness Lodge, it's, it's a
• 29:53
  big building. It's so well done on the outside
• 29:56
  with the, the, the woodwork and everything gorgeous inside.
• 30:02
  I think if you put history aside, I would go with
• 30:05
  Worldliness Lodge. That's not why I would come to
• 30:09
  the conclusion for that one. Contemporary is very plain.
• 30:12
  And I mean, it's not plain. It's, it's, it's, it's
• 30:15
  definitely an architectural wonder.
• 30:17
  Yes. And it was, it was built in a
• 30:19
  certain way because they wanted to do certain things with it
• 30:22
  that they found out they weren't able to do with it.
• 30:26
  It is so cool that the monorail goes through.
• 30:29
  I've never been a I've never stayed there.
• 30:31
  It's one of the few places I haven't stayed.
• 30:34
  Would I be thrilled to do it? Yeah, I'd be thrilled to stay
• 30:37
  there 'cause I've never done it. And to say, oh, I can hear the
• 30:39
  monorail coming through, you know, while you're in bed or
• 30:42
  something. Great view, though.
• 30:44
  You cannot beat the view of the contemporary, no.
• 30:48
  So you can make a lot of arguments to support the
• 30:50
  contemporary, but I would go, did I talk myself out of it?
• 30:57
  As beautiful as the world in this lodge is, I think that you
• 31:01
  could find a lot of places like it around the country.
• 31:06
  Interesting, You know, similar, like it's huge, it's tall.
• 31:12
  I think of the lobbying, just how big and beautiful it is.
• 31:14
  Yep. So I think with all that said,
• 31:19
  in the case I made towards Wilderness Lodge, I'm going to
• 31:21
  go with the contemporary. It is outdated, but you know, if
• 31:26
  one had to go, I guess I would keep the contemporary because
• 31:29
  it's so iconic. So see, I aired on the side of
• 31:31
  history. I do like the fact that the
• 31:34
  monorail goes through it. It is certainly, you know, this
• 31:38
  architectural feat and how they did it.
• 31:41
  Talking about the architecture, though, you know, the rooms were
• 31:44
  meant to slide out and that didn't happen.
• 31:50
  They were like, oh. Wait, I wonder, I wonder where
• 31:51
  that failed in the design. You know, I wonder where that
• 31:53
  failed. Like, oh, we don't need to do
• 31:57
  that. That's probably where it failed.
• 31:58
  It was probably, it's not that hard to just change the carpet
• 32:04
  and put in LVP and, you know, update the bedding and that you
• 32:10
  don't have to take out the entire structure to do.
• 32:13
  That's probably what happened. Sure, it had to do with the.
• 32:16
  Cost, they probably figured, yeah, cost wise, it's probably
• 32:19
  easier to do that. All that said, I'm going to say
• 32:24
  wilderness Lodge. I've I think I the great views
• 32:29
  at contemporary monorail, all that stuff.
• 32:33
  I still think, I haven't said it either, but I still think
• 32:38
  Wilderness Lodge would, would be the one for me because if I look
• 32:43
  at it as as a whole, we did go to Whispering Canyon there,
• 32:51
  right? That's the name of it, right.
• 32:52
  Whispering Canyon for lunch. And then we just walked around
• 32:58
  the whole thing. And then you go back to the boat
• 33:01
  launch and that whole area back there and we went to where the
• 33:05
  villas are. Boulder Lake.
• 33:08
  I hope that's the Ridge. Boulder Ridge.
• 33:10
  Thank you. It's just beautiful.
• 33:14
  So I'm going to say overall wilderness Lodge for me.
• 33:21
  OK, Pamela says. No way, Corey.
• 33:23
  I love Wilderness Lodge, I really do.
• 33:25
  It's so beautiful. And just being in the main pool
• 33:27
  and looking up in the size of the building, it gives you a
• 33:30
  little bit of a feeling of what it's like to be like in the pool
• 33:33
  if you're at Aulani with with the big buildings.
• 33:38
  All right, still having to do with resorts and relaxation this
• 33:44
  next one. Pool day or park day?
• 33:51
  Park day all the way. Yeah, I would agree with you.
• 33:56
  I don't swim, so certainly pool day wasn't going to, wasn't
• 34:00
  going to. Be well.
• 34:00
  You can wade. You can wade in the water.
• 34:03
  Yeah, for sure. Like if we went on a 10 day when
• 34:08
  we would come down and we'd go on a 10 day vacation here, we
• 34:12
  there was a lot of out of 10 days, probably man 1 would be a,
• 34:20
  a, a resort day where it'd be a pool day and the rest were park
• 34:24
  days. We have started taking a break
• 34:29
  during our, you know, if it's a five day or so, we'll take a day
• 34:35
  in the middle where we take at least a long afternoon because
• 34:40
  Finley loves to swim. So if it's a shorter trip, three
• 34:44
  day trip or something like that, we'll take 1/2 day.
• 34:47
  They might, you know, start at the park and then go back to the
• 34:50
  pool or go to the pool and then start at the park later on.
• 34:56
  Yeah. All right.
• 34:58
  So again in resorts Deluxe or Value.
• 35:06
  Well, I mean, if if money's not the issue, it's always deluxe
• 35:12
  for me. You, you just get more for your
• 35:17
  money. You know, you get the little
• 35:19
  things. I say little, but you know, you
• 35:21
  get a fridge, you get a microwave.
• 35:22
  If you get a, you know, I guess you get a coffee maker.
• 35:24
  You get a coffee maker everywhere.
• 35:25
  At this point, I don't even get the values.
• 35:28
  You get a coffee maker there. You eat a coffee maker there,
• 35:31
  it's not a fancy one like you're going to get in.
• 35:33
  You know the the deluxe ones for sure.
• 35:36
  Yeah, and you get multi rooms, things like that, you know, so
• 35:40
  there's just so much more that you get with a a deluxe resort.
• 35:45
  So if money is not an issue, deluxe resort for me.
• 35:49
  If money is an issue, again, I've I've stayed as high as
• 35:57
  Grand Floridian. But I love my All Stars.
• 36:01
  I love them. I love good memory.
• 36:04
  Yeah, yeah, I agree. You know, we, we had set out
• 36:11
  when we became annual pass holders to stay at every resort
• 36:15
  and not to repeat. Well, sometimes you got to do
• 36:20
  that. And so we've stayed at the All
• 36:23
  Stars a couple times, stayed at Pop, stayed at Art of Animation,
• 36:28
  at Part Pop and Art of Animation.
• 36:30
  I don't consider them value resorts.
• 36:32
  I consider them value plus resorts.
• 36:36
  And so does Disney by their pricing.
• 36:39
  So, and that's really because they have the skyline that
• 36:41
  they're also a little bit bigger than the other ones, not much,
• 36:44
  but a little bit. And so All Stars for me, value
• 36:49
  resorts work very well. OK, we're going to head to food.
• 36:58
  This is going to be an interesting one.
• 37:06
  And again, I'm just seeing these for the first time.
• 37:12
  Churro or Turkey leg? Oh, it would easily be a churro.
• 37:18
  And you never see me buy churros either.
• 37:21
  These are two of the lowest purchase things in my park
• 37:25
  history. The Turkey leg is just gross to
• 37:28
  me. It's like ham on a stick.
• 37:30
  It's like when you you're, you're looking at something
• 37:35
  like, for example, Halloween Horror Nights for they had a
• 37:39
  food booth for Fallout, which was one of their houses this
• 37:43
  year. And there's a big deal on the
• 37:47
  show Fallout, if you've seen it, I don't know if you've seen any
• 37:50
  of it or whatever. I'm trying to get through it.
• 37:52
  I I'm I'm having trouble, but I know it was popular, but they
• 37:56
  eat a lot of deviled eggs. So when you go to this food
• 38:03
  booth and we didn't try them, it's one thing we didn't try
• 38:06
  there, but we did. That's the food booth where I
• 38:09
  think we got the the fry deep fried carrot cake, which was
• 38:14
  amazing. It was 5 out of five out of five
• 38:17
  jump scares is what that was. And so and we'll talk about that
• 38:22
  in the blog That's coming out sooner than later.
• 38:25
  But anyway, those eggs that you bite into are not eggs at all.
• 38:30
  They're not eggs at all. And they look, you would you
• 38:32
  would swear it was a sliced devil egg.
• 38:35
  So it's something different. It's like sweet or something.
• 38:38
  It's made out of something else, so that's what the Turkey like
• 38:41
  is like. Your brain says Thanksgiving
• 38:43
  Turkey but when your taste buds hit it, it says Oh my God this
• 38:47
  is ham. So.
• 38:53
  But and cheeros, Listen, I spent a lot of money on food at
• 38:57
  Disney, but I've got to be frugal with cheeros.
• 38:59
  It's just a long stick with sugar and to me it doesn't
• 39:03
  justify the price. Aren't they like 8 or 9 bucks
• 39:05
  all the time? It just doesn't.
• 39:08
  I can I don't know I just feel like you could buy something
• 39:10
  better for 9 bucks but I would take churro first.
• 39:14
  Neither of these would be on my list.
• 39:17
  I don't. I know I haven't bought a Turkey
• 39:21
  leg and I don't think I've ever bought a churro there either,
• 39:25
  but I would say churro before Turkey like.
• 39:27
  Yeah, Deonk and I can no longer be friends, but you can still
• 39:30
  talk to Turkey. Legs are great.
• 39:34
  Wow. All right, let's keep talking
• 39:37
  about food. We're going to go to breakfast,
• 39:41
  but are we going to go to Ohana or Chef Mickey?
• 39:45
  Let's see, Trish said, she said She said.
• 39:47
  We did contemporary theme park last time, but this time we are
• 39:51
  doing pop. Pop is great pop.
• 39:52
  Everybody wants to go to pop, though.
• 39:54
  That's a busy bus. I just feel like when we pop,
• 39:57
  pop is a busy bus. Long lines to pop.
• 40:00
  Yeah, I think it's because. It's that upper value resort
• 40:05
  like you said, right? It's a little more expensive
• 40:06
  than the All Stars, but they still consider it a value
• 40:09
  resort. Yeah, and it's on the sky liner.
• 40:13
  It's on the sky liner. But for me, I mean, you know,
• 40:19
  the the decades represented, right?
• 40:21
  50s, sixties, 70s, eighties, 90s, yeah.
• 40:25
  You know, it's nostalgia. I mean, that's that's why people
• 40:29
  love going to Magic Kingdom when you're an adult, right?
• 40:31
  So. I I do it, I do, I do it.
• 40:35
  I've done a a chunk of live streams from Pop.
• 40:38
  It's fun to just walk through all the stuff and show people.
• 40:42
  Yeah, you know, it is a lot of fun to do.
• 40:45
  So Ohana or Chef Mickey's, what do you think?
• 40:51
  So I haven't done either, but what I've what?
• 40:55
  I haven't. If you would have asked, I would
• 40:56
  have sworn you have done at least Chef Mickey's.
• 40:59
  OK now. Something new every day,
• 41:00
  everybody. Now Chef Mickey's I think is
• 41:04
  probably going to be one of the next ones we do.
• 41:09
  We almost did Ohana when we were when we had that that discount.
• 41:16
  I think that one was on the list, but we were thinking about
• 41:20
  it, but ended up not doing it. So I'm going to say for me, from
• 41:25
  what I've heard, Ohana. Yeah, I'm going to go with that
• 41:32
  too. If you break down the settings,
• 41:36
  I feel like Ohana is much cozier.
• 41:40
  Oh yeah, I could see that, yeah. Now, yeah, just a little more
• 41:44
  relaxed, a little more cozy, a little cozier.
• 41:46
  And I feel like I honestly think that we have never done dinner
• 41:51
  at Ohana. I think we've only done
• 41:54
  breakfast and I think we've done it three times.
• 41:59
  So and we do have a blog on that.
• 42:01
  If anybody's interested in in checking it out and seeing what
• 42:03
  that is like, go to Living in Diz on YouTube and you can look
• 42:07
  that up under our videos or live streams.
• 42:10
  We I live streamed it back a few months ago.
• 42:14
  You can watch that and check out the review.
• 42:16
  But yeah, so I think the atmosphere is better at Ohana.
• 42:22
  Chef Mickey's is very, you know, it's just kind of wide open,
• 42:30
  regular booth, kind of tables, standard buffet setting.
• 42:34
  But of course you get all the wonderful characters, so much
• 42:36
  fun. I love Chef Mickey's, the food,
• 42:39
  the food selection has been great.
• 42:41
  They did a switch over after COVID and it wasn't good and
• 42:44
  they knew it wasn't good and they changed.
• 42:47
  I think they went back to the. So it's mostly back to what it
• 42:49
  was. Original, yeah, we tried it, we
• 42:52
  did the live stream on it and we felt like we wasted our money
• 42:55
  that night. But the times before that with
• 42:58
  the normal menu and now with the normal menu would be great.
• 43:01
  And we're due, we're due for some Chef Mickey's for sure on
• 43:05
  the channel. So that'll probably come up in
• 43:08
  2026. But you know, again, I choose
• 43:12
  and the food, you know, food quality.
• 43:14
  I mean, the food is good at Chef Mickey's.
• 43:18
  The food is great at Ohana's from, you know, breakfast.
• 43:21
  Breakfast is breakfast. But no, they have some things
• 43:24
  though. They have the pineapple bread or
• 43:25
  whatever it is. There's certain things Ohana has
• 43:28
  there. OK, I'm just going to go Ohana.
• 43:30
  I just overall, I'm going to go Ohana.
• 43:31
  If you're like, hey, I'm going to take you out.
• 43:33
  Where do you want to go? I'd probably go, yeah, let's go
• 43:34
  to Ohana. All right, I like that.
• 43:37
  All right, we're going to stick with food one more time.
• 43:44
  Epcot Festival booths. Dolip Dave says name a
• 43:48
  restaurant. Corey has a vlog or a video on
• 43:51
  it. Hey man, we're 7 1/2 years old
• 43:54
  almost. We had to have covered about
• 43:56
  everything. You can't do Magic Kingdom every
• 43:59
  day. No, not like some who do, like,
• 44:03
  you know, 56 out of 62 live streams at Magic Kingdom.
• 44:09
  We'll let you figure out who that might be.
• 44:11
  Hopefully, hopefully he's watching.
• 44:13
  Or a couple of them. There's a couple of them.
• 44:15
  Out there doing it, yeah. Yeah.
• 44:17
  You know where they would be better at?
• 44:19
  Disneyland. Yeah, right.
• 44:21
  Exactly, right, exactly. Yes, Go left or right.
• 44:25
  That's it. Yeah.
• 44:26
  So Epcot festival booths or a sit down dinner.
• 44:31
  And I'm going to leave it open to interpretation because AI
• 44:36
  didn't give me anything else. No, I think it's pretty clear,
• 44:41
  you know, dining reservations are special.
• 44:44
  You get a chance to unwind, relax, enjoy the atmosphere,
• 44:47
  enjoy the, you know, the Class A cast member service and the
• 44:52
  food. Most of the time, if it's not
• 44:54
  chefs, the France and you order the new beef stroganoff.
• 44:58
  So, and it's so much fun to go from food booth to food booth
• 45:03
  and I get excited. It's easy content.
• 45:05
  It's fun to try the food, especially when a new one fires
• 45:07
  up, you know, we're able to go around and try some things.
• 45:11
  But yeah, I'd probably go dining reservation first.
• 45:17
  OK, you know, it's funny. People talk about, you know, sit
• 45:24
  down dinner and it's going to take 90 minutes at least, but
• 45:31
  going booth to booth, you're probably going to eat up at
• 45:34
  least 90 minutes if not more. People talk about the expense of
• 45:39
  a sit down dinner probably ends up more expensive going and
• 45:43
  trying all these different foods throughout the festival,
• 45:48
  especially if you're going to do, you know, a a drink over at
• 45:52
  Canada and a drink in Japan. And you know, that can start to
• 45:56
  get really expensive, but oh man, I think I'm going to go
• 46:04
  dining reservation. OK.
• 46:08
  Because I, when I look at the booths like you especially, you
• 46:13
  know, food and wine, you are more adventurous than I am when
• 46:22
  it comes to food. So when I look at the booths,
• 46:28
  while the food looks great, it's not really much that I would
• 46:31
  eat. So I'm, I'm going to say dining
• 46:34
  reservation. Yeah, you chewed on that this,
• 46:38
  that decision for quite a while. Yeah, but you finally spit it
• 46:41
  out, but unbumped. But you know one thing I can add
• 46:46
  on to like. My drums were almost in reach
• 46:49
  there. You can still do it.
• 46:52
  The where is it? So the the I'll say about the
• 46:59
  festival of booths, though, if you do, if you do go to enough
• 47:03
  of them, you end up spending your share of what you would we
• 47:07
  we would spend at A at A at a sit down.
• 47:09
  Yeah, yeah, Easily, easily. And, and the, the downside to it
• 47:16
  too is sometimes you can feel like, I feel like this with my
• 47:19
  stomach in the way it works, which is different from most.
• 47:23
  If you're, it's almost like grazing, you know, if you start,
• 47:26
  if you, if you go in and you grab some food and maybe you try
• 47:29
  a little bit more than you go on a ride, you're not fully like
• 47:32
  satisfied, like you've had some food and your stomach's kind of
• 47:34
  like, Hey, fill me up here. And then you, you know, you wait
• 47:39
  like, you know, whatever, 45 minutes for an hour, you've done
• 47:42
  an attraction or two, you shop a little.
• 47:44
  Now you go to the next food booth and you have another, you
• 47:46
  know, glorified sample size of something.
• 47:50
  I, I, I kind of feel you feel weird sometimes on a Saturdays,
• 47:54
  like as you get to dinner time now you're trying to decide
• 47:58
  like, OK, I, I had four things today leading up to this.
• 48:03
  I'm kind of still hungry. But if I, I think this sometimes
• 48:07
  if I don't eat now, I'm going to be starving by 9.
• 48:11
  So, you know, you over end up over stuffing yourself at
• 48:14
  dinner. So food, food with the tricky.
• 48:17
  We'll take the dining reservation.
• 48:19
  All right, we're going to move into movies and characters.
• 48:26
  Elsa or Rapunzel? Oh, I'm going to go with
• 48:36
  Rapunzel, because I always used to tell Jill that Elsa was the
• 48:42
  troublemaker. She started all the trouble.
• 48:44
  Anna was the one that she should follow because Anna was good and
• 48:48
  innocent. Elsa was the troublemaker.
• 48:52
  Rapunzel. I think Rapunzel is underrated.
• 48:56
  Elsa gets way too much glory. And I will say this from
• 49:00
  observation of the Starlight Parade.
• 49:02
  And it's not her fault, but it's what Disney wants her to do.
• 49:06
  Would you agree that Elsa is the as I try to get attention for
• 49:12
  the stream to for them to acknowledge us?
• 49:16
  Elsa is the least interactive character on the floats.
• 49:22
  She's got this whole thing she's going to do and there's never
• 49:27
  any waving or anything of any type.
• 49:32
  So Coco doesn't do anything either, but.
• 49:36
  Wrong really. Yes, if you go back on maybe two
• 49:45
  and three times ago, not not he actually looked at me and like
• 49:51
  waved or did something right at me when I was standing alone and
• 49:55
  I was like, whoa, it took me by surprise.
• 49:57
  So you're not wrong in your assessment that you really
• 50:00
  haven't seen it or didn't think he would, but he has.
• 50:03
  That's cool, that's cool, 'cause I was going to say he's got an
• 50:06
  excuse, he's got his guitar and you know.
• 50:09
  Yeah. And and then, you know, yeah,
• 50:12
  whereas she does not. So she should be more fluid.
• 50:18
  But you're right, she's doing her powers and all that.
• 50:23
  Yeah, Pew Pew Pew. Pew.
• 50:24
  Pew. Really work like that.
• 50:31
  So, but for me, I'm going to say Rapunzel.
• 50:35
  I think that it's if I'm thinking about the movie itself,
• 50:41
  I think it's a more I think, and I don't, I haven't, I've seen
• 50:45
  probably Frozen more than I've seen Rapunzel.
• 50:47
  But I liked Rapunzel. I thought it was a lot of fun.
• 50:50
  I think she's a more fun character than Elsa is.
• 50:55
  I mean, especially in, I mean in the first one, you know, she
• 50:59
  goes off and by herself. Elsa's really serious if you
• 51:03
  think about it, right? If you really think about it,
• 51:05
  Elsa's really serious. Yeah, yeah.
• 51:08
  She's well, she's got some. Serious issues she's dealing
• 51:10
  with. I don't know if you folks know,
• 51:12
  but she was supposed to be the villain of the movie.
• 51:16
  And they wrote Let it Go and they heard that song and they
• 51:22
  were like, oh, we have to change the whole thing up.
• 51:24
  She can't be the villain with this song.
• 51:27
  Her story is very different from what we thought it was.
• 51:30
  So they ended up not making her the villain, but I think she
• 51:34
  still has some of those tendencies.
• 51:37
  So I'm going to say I'm going to say Rapunzel.
• 51:40
  Plus, that's Finley's favorite Princess, so I'd be thrown out
• 51:44
  of the house if I didn't say Rapunzel.
• 51:46
  Oh. I didn't know that.
• 51:48
  Yeah, yeah, she loves Rapunzel. All right, So very appropriate
• 51:54
  for this week, are we? And this this goes, this is just
• 52:04
  called worldwide Disney, this section Disney Cruise or Alani,
• 52:09
  you've been to one haven't been to to the other.
• 52:12
  That is true, but I will say this now and I'll probably say
• 52:19
  it again because in the next starting in well between be too
• 52:27
  well, try to think well. Anyway, within a short time,
• 52:30
  we're talking within the next couple years, we would have done
• 52:33
  Aulani again and we have done well would have done our first
• 52:37
  Disney cruise. And I still think I'll stand by
• 52:39
  Aulani and I think that I speak, I know that I speak for the
• 52:42
  entire LID family that it's Aulani all the way.
• 52:46
  It's you're in Hawaii, man, You're in Hawaii.
• 52:49
  Even if you do a Disney cruise in Hawaii, like you're you're
• 52:52
  the Aulani resort. The Aulani Resort is just
• 52:56
  unbelievable. Pamela is ADVC member.
• 52:59
  She needs to get out there, stop going to the wilderness large
• 53:02
  and put those points together. Get out to Aulani.
• 53:09
  It's the best Disney resort in the world and it's jam packed
• 53:14
  with things. The it's oceanfront.
• 53:18
  It's oceanfront. Do we have any here in Orlando?
• 53:25
  No, nothing's oceanfront. They can't do it.
• 53:29
  California can't do it. It's it's just beautiful
• 53:33
  oceanfront. They have Each restaurant there
• 53:39
  just brings its own atmosphere. Off the Hook.
• 53:44
  Off the Hook is facing one of the pool areas with a beautiful
• 53:49
  view of looking towards the inner part of the resort but
• 53:54
  very close to the beach and I'm forgetting the name of.
• 54:00
  There's a higher end restaurant that faces the beach that was
• 54:04
  closed when we were there because of COVID.
• 54:08
  It's not coming to mind but I'll consider it when we go next
• 54:12
  time. Olaylo is another beautiful spot
• 54:18
  for Dole Wave day. We have a vlog on that for a lay
• 54:22
  low and it's the first place. This is where you can watch
• 54:25
  Jacob and I eat oysters for the first time in our lives.
• 54:30
  But sitting there outside at night with the color changing
• 54:37
  water that shoots back and forth at the atmosphere, just
• 54:41
  beautiful and a starlit night and how tall those buildings
• 54:44
  are. World in this lodge is the same
• 54:45
  way but you get them on both sides and it's you can't help
• 54:49
  but you know, look up multiple times while you're there and
• 54:52
  Aulani has a lazy river that goes from front to back just
• 54:57
  about. OK.
• 54:59
  And as you're going along with that, you never know who you're
• 55:01
  going to see as you, as you like, 'cause there, there's at
• 55:04
  least one bridge that that goes over the river.
• 55:08
  You might just be floating along with the family.
• 55:09
  You go by nobody there. You come by again and who's
• 55:12
  there? You might see Moana right there
• 55:18
  waving it. Or you might see I, I, I paused
• 55:22
  because I didn't want to say his name wrong.
• 55:24
  And I know his name. I might mess it up.
• 55:26
  Alumel, Alumel the turtle. Or, you know, you might see some
• 55:30
  of those characters just waving at you there.
• 55:34
  And they have two water slides in the middle.
• 55:37
  Plus they have a big tank where you can snorkel.
• 55:40
  And what a great deal that is. You can pay like $25 for the day
• 55:44
  or you pay like 4040 for the length of stay and all you, you
• 55:48
  just grab your, you grab some some snorkeling equipment and
• 55:52
  you pop in and snorkel with all the fish anytime you want.
• 55:58
  So. So let me ask you, you went in
• 56:02
  21? Yeah, I would say we went in 21.
• 56:08
  OK. So you mentioned the restaurant
• 56:11
  not being open. Is there other stuff that wasn't
• 56:15
  open that you're looking forward to the next time you go?
• 56:20
  I think that I thought that maybe a little more nighttime
• 56:27
  entertainment could be available, but I could be wrong.
• 56:32
  I'll have to reference Greg on that.
• 56:36
  That would be the only thing that it might lack is stuff
• 56:40
  shuts down early. It's like I can't even remember
• 56:43
  what we did at night, you know, after dinner and it's and it
• 56:49
  once it once once darkness falls, it's a it was a dead
• 56:53
  place for us. So hopefully there's a little
• 56:55
  more to do or we'll have to just find something else, something
• 57:00
  to do to entertain ourselves. You know, we won't be bored.
• 57:03
  But as far as night time entertainment, there wasn't much
• 57:07
  of anything. There was a few times we know
• 57:09
  we, we would just sit. We would sit and enjoy the
• 57:11
  atmosphere. We'd we'd have dinner at off the
• 57:13
  hook or whatever, which is it's a sit down, but more of a casual
• 57:18
  one and we would just sit and enjoy sitting by the pool for
• 57:21
  hours. So that's what we did and there
• 57:24
  was a guy now telling stories at night, you know, playing the
• 57:28
  ukulele. How how late It wasn't it wasn't
• 57:32
  Makiki. How late is the Costco?
• 57:37
  Yes, the Costco. We could go to the Costco.
• 57:39
  I have a membership, Tammy, Tammy.
• 57:42
  I think of Tammy saying we're we're banned from the Costco
• 57:44
  because we threw out a lot of food.
• 57:46
  So I think we're going to go to the Target instead.
• 57:50
  That's a good point. There's a.
• 57:50
  Target near there yeah, we're going to do the Target instead
• 57:56
  and it wasn't Makihiki. We loved Maki Makihiki.
• 57:59
  Makihiki is great also but that was not the restaurant.
• 58:04
  Nice. And we did lunch.
• 58:06
  No, we did breakfast and dinner at Makihiki.
• 58:10
  And let me tell you, a last thing I'll say about Aulani is
• 58:14
  the when I when I tried their pancakes, it was not with Maple
• 58:21
  syrup. It was with macadamia nut sauce.
• 58:25
  And I said if I could help it, I would never eat pancakes another
• 58:30
  way again. But I think it's hard to get
• 58:32
  that sauce here, so I haven't had it since.
• 58:37
  Yeah. Someone in chat said something.
• 58:40
  I didn't want to miss it, Pamela said plan on Aulani meet you
• 58:46
  there with Katy Perry. Yeah, maybe Katy will be there
• 58:49
  again. That would be great. 18 plus
• 58:51
  comedy shows too, says 86 AGO GB.
• 58:53
  Oh, if the cruise ship doesn't have a casino or adult inspired
• 58:57
  nightclub, I'm not going, he says.
• 58:59
  That's a that was a little bit of our concern with the Disney
• 59:02
  Cruise, too, like with Royal Caribbean, you know, there's
• 59:11
  stuff to do, I believe until maybe like 1:00 in the morning,
• 59:15
  maybe 2. So I mean, Jill was the last one
• 59:19
  to come in. She found friends.
• 59:20
  We'd be like, goodnight, Jill, we're going upstairs.
• 59:23
  But Amma Amma, Yes, Amma Amma was the restaurant that we
• 59:26
  haven't tried. That's the only one we haven't
• 59:28
  tried at Aulani. Yeah.
• 59:31
  So Disney Cruiser, Aulani. I'm going to Aulani.
• 59:35
  It's a hard one for me is I've never done either.
• 59:38
  I've never been to Hawaii, never been to Aulani, obviously, and
• 59:42
  haven't done a cruise at all. I'm going to say the cruise.
• 59:50
  I think I'm going to like seeing different places, you know, and
• 59:56
  this one is only going to Mexico and and Castaway K, But you
• 1:00:00
  know, I I think I'll enjoy that more than.
• 1:00:02
  Just one resort. However, you did a ton of stuff.
• 1:00:06
  So yes, it's Aulani, but you did a lot.
• 1:00:11
  Oh, yeah. I mean, if I had to divide it up
• 1:00:13
  by percentages, we might have been off Aulani property 60% of
• 1:00:17
  the time. Yeah, You know, in the waking
• 1:00:19
  hours we did some stuff. You know, we rented a car and we
• 1:00:24
  did a lot of things on the island, so.
• 1:00:28
  Hello Anne, I got to. Incorporate that.
• 1:00:30
  Yeah. So you got to incorporate that.
• 1:00:33
  All right, so let's talk movies and characters.
• 1:00:38
  Are you going classic animation or Pixar?
• 1:00:42
  Classic animation. I think classic animation has to
• 1:00:47
  come back. I love the Pixar stuff, but I
• 1:00:52
  keep saying it, mark it down, I keep saying it.
• 1:00:55
  So when Disney comes out with one, say Corey's been talking
• 1:00:57
  about that for a long time, telling you they I think I, what
• 1:01:03
  do you, how do you think it would go every you know, if, if
• 1:01:05
  anybody's listening and, and you know, after we're done recording
• 1:01:08
  this, put a comment in and, and let us know.
• 1:01:11
  You think you all can put a comment in now?
• 1:01:14
  If you know, how do you think the public would respond with a
• 1:01:18
  classic animation film with a great story?
• 1:01:24
  When you were a kid, did you watch the old cartoons more than
• 1:01:35
  you did the current cartoons at that time?
• 1:01:40
  Old. So when you were a kid, when you
• 1:01:45
  were a kid, were you watching Betty Boop or Tom and Jerry?
• 1:01:50
  Oh, with that, well, I don't really think Betty Boop was
• 1:01:53
  available to me. So I was watching Tom and Jerry,
• 1:01:55
  but technically Tom and Jerry was, although, you know, when we
• 1:02:01
  were younger, those were already in repeats.
• 1:02:03
  They weren't brand new, even. That's true.
• 1:02:07
  But to us, they were new to us because.
• 1:02:09
  Not the fact that The Flintstones was a prime time
• 1:02:11
  show, like it started as a prime time show, like it was a it was
• 1:02:15
  the Family Guy of that time, Yeah.
• 1:02:18
  Absolutely. Crazy.
• 1:02:20
  Absolutely. So I know it it as as I started
• 1:02:24
  to trans position transition out of Saturday morning cartoons, it
• 1:02:31
  was at the point kind of where you could still see Looney Tunes
• 1:02:36
  all or, you know, coming up next was like Pac-Man, which was the
• 1:02:40
  newer iTunes. You know I I stuck with a Looney
• 1:02:43
  Tunes over like Pac-Man you. Know so so where I was going
• 1:02:48
  with that was like even older so So what was current for us then
• 1:02:52
  Pac-Man or I I would even say that Tom and Jerry was current
• 1:02:59
  for us even though it was the reruns I think it was current
• 1:03:02
  right Flintstones. Yes, in our mind.
• 1:03:04
  In our child's mind, it was current for us.
• 1:03:06
  Right. So were you watching that, or
• 1:03:08
  were you watching a cartoon from the 30s?
• 1:03:11
  I'm watching that. I would watch the cartoons from
• 1:03:13
  the 30s, yeah. Yeah, so my point is like Finley
• 1:03:17
  watches some some Minecraft YouTube stuff right now and it
• 1:03:22
  drives me crazy because it's not my generation.
• 1:03:28
  But if I would have put on Looney Tunes or maybe not Looney
• 1:03:33
  Tunes, that that should be Evergreen.
• 1:03:34
  But you know, if I would have put on Pac-Man or oh gosh, gummy
• 1:03:42
  bears, you know, she might not like that because that was our
• 1:03:46
  generation. So I just think that they've
• 1:03:49
  changed because that's what the kids like today.
• 1:03:53
  I'm telling you that that Minecraft thing that she watches
• 1:03:56
  on YouTube I just can't see. I tried.
• 1:03:58
  You nuts, huh? Just try the funny voice that
• 1:04:01
  they try and do just try. I think it's Milo, I think is
• 1:04:05
  the name of it. So sorry if you're out there.
• 1:04:09
  But I would just like to see what would happen.
• 1:04:13
  All that said, I would I would go with classic, you know, you
• 1:04:18
  think Lion King, Aladdin, you know, that whole Renaissance
• 1:04:21
  period. I mean, we, we had some good
• 1:04:22
  movies then, you know, Beauty and the Beast.
• 1:04:27
  Yeah, it's all about the story. Absolutely.
• 1:04:30
  Up Steve and Tony, said Popeye. Now see that one?
• 1:04:34
  That's an Evergreen one. I could do that.
• 1:04:37
  Hey, Popeye was old, but they were already pushing health and
• 1:04:40
  fitness back then. I did all for that.
• 1:04:45
  See, I did. I fell for that.
• 1:04:46
  My mom would eat, would make spinach, I would eat the
• 1:04:49
  spinach, and then I would flex. I'd look at my biceps with every
• 1:04:52
  bite. I would eat iceberg lettuce and
• 1:04:56
  pretend that it was spinach because I could not eat spinach.
• 1:05:00
  I just wasn't in. Spinach eater.
• 1:05:02
  Oh no throw, let let let spinach just bathe in vinegar and salt.
• 1:05:09
  And that's how I had it as a kid.
• 1:05:11
  Oh wow. Yeah, OK, Since we're talking
• 1:05:17
  about Popeye, I'm going to take us all on all sorts of different
• 1:05:20
  journeys. Did you like the Popeye movie?
• 1:05:25
  Yes, I loved it. Robin Williams was amazing.
• 1:05:29
  Shelley Winters was amazing. That is to me.
• 1:05:35
  I feel like it was an underrated movie.
• 1:05:37
  I don't I I it's forgotten. It's forgotten.
• 1:05:39
  It is. It is, and there's a lot of
• 1:05:42
  people that can't stand it. And I'm like, that was a good
• 1:05:46
  movie. A.
• 1:05:48
  Lot of good little jokes that came out of it.
• 1:05:50
  I loved that movie. And I'll tell you what, I
• 1:05:53
  wouldn't be surprised if I'd seen that movie 25 times.
• 1:05:56
  Not, not. A lot, yeah.
• 1:05:57
  Yeah. It was Shelley Duvall it.
• 1:05:58
  Came on cable. Oh, I'm sorry, Shelley Duvall
• 1:06:01
  and I, it came on cable and I watched it every time it came
• 1:06:06
  on. Then we had this weird channel,
• 1:06:07
  HTN and I, I think they would just run one movie a month and
• 1:06:11
  they would just run around the clock.
• 1:06:13
  I would just watch yeah Popeye so many times.
• 1:06:18
  I. Think it was HBO that I would
• 1:06:19
  see it on, but yeah, the soundtrack is phenomenal.
• 1:06:24
  Yeah. Oh, it's so good.
• 1:06:25
  So good. Can we can can you find the
• 1:06:28
  soundtrack on like iTunes? I bet you could.
• 1:06:33
  I bet you could another another musical that I liked back in
• 1:06:36
  that time. When you can, I'm listening to
• 1:06:40
  it. Later you can.
• 1:06:44
  Annie I love, love the movie Annie.
• 1:06:47
  But that was another one came on HBO all the time.
• 1:06:51
  And I would, I would always, always play that one.
• 1:06:54
  We couldn't afford HBO. So it let me tell you, you know,
• 1:06:58
  I think HBO would debut at a new movie, the big new movie for the
• 1:07:01
  month, right? That's what they would do.
• 1:07:04
  I feel like it would premiere on like a Sunday night.
• 1:07:07
  Oh, maybe because I I would get invited to my cousin's house to
• 1:07:12
  watch. You know, I think I saw Superman
• 1:07:15
  there for the first time with Christopher Reeve was one of
• 1:07:19
  them. And I don't know what else, but
• 1:07:21
  I remember going over there for that.
• 1:07:24
  The the durian said hook. That's another one.
• 1:07:28
  Not if not, you know, what was hook 90 somewhere in the 90s,
• 1:07:34
  but that that's another movie that just again, the story.
• 1:07:39
  I think it had a great story. You know this I'm not even going
• 1:07:46
  to put this one up because I think this is going to be an
• 1:07:47
  easy one. Star Wars or or Marvel?
• 1:07:51
  Yeah, moving on. No, they're both great.
• 1:07:54
  They're both great. And Disney, Disney has done such
• 1:08:00
  a a great job. I think Disney's done a better
• 1:08:02
  job with Marvel than than Star Wars.
• 1:08:04
  I really wish. I don't understand why not.
• 1:08:09
  I'm a die hard Star Wars fan and you know, I went through the
• 1:08:14
  hype of the new movies and to be honest I, I, I have.
• 1:08:20
  If you said to me I could not watch the final trilogy ever
• 1:08:25
  again in my life, I'd be OK with it.
• 1:08:31
  I would be OK with it. Now, will I watch it again?
• 1:08:34
  Of course I'm going to. But it wouldn't kill me if I
• 1:08:36
  didn't get to see them again. But I always go back to this
• 1:08:42
  anyway. Bad Star Wars is like bad pizza.
• 1:08:46
  It's still pizza. OK.
• 1:08:48
  So I'm I'm going to take it, you know, I'm, I don't want to be
• 1:08:51
  one of those people that complain that we're getting Star
• 1:08:54
  Wars, even if you're getting AD level Star Wars like I'm there.
• 1:08:58
  Although, what was it, Acolyte or whatever?
• 1:09:04
  I still haven't picked that one back up again.
• 1:09:06
  But I'm just thankful that Star Wars continues.
• 1:09:09
  But it's still Star Wars for me. With all that said, it's still
• 1:09:13
  Star Wars for me. I'm a die hard Star Wars fan.
• 1:09:15
  Can't wait for the new Mando movie.
• 1:09:18
  OK, so if you are doing Rotten Tomatoes scoring for the for the
• 1:09:28
  excuse me for the trilogies, what scores do you give the
• 1:09:32
  trilogy's? So one through 3, I will rate it
• 1:09:40
  higher now after seeing all things after that came out
• 1:09:47
  because it makes it more sensible.
• 1:09:50
  OK, it does. I'm trying to remember what we
• 1:09:54
  saw that makes Phantom Menace way better than it was.
• 1:10:00
  So I'm going to give the original, not the original one
• 1:10:03
  through 3 Rotten Tomatoes score as a group.
• 1:10:09
  I'm going to give it. I'm going to give it a 92.
• 1:10:15
  And I think what carries it the most is Revenge of the Sith.
• 1:10:20
  Revenge of the Sith is one of the best.
• 1:10:24
  It really is. It really is.
• 1:10:27
  We thought that, you know, we knew the story of Anakin and
• 1:10:32
  that he becomes Darth Vader. We knew that.
• 1:10:34
  But how great was it to write the story in a way that none of
• 1:10:37
  us could have seen it coming the way it did?
• 1:10:39
  It was done well. I think that came before
• 1:10:43
  Maleficent, the live action, and I don't know if you saw that
• 1:10:49
  one, but we see Maleficent now. I've never seen Sleeping Beauty.
• 1:10:54
  I have to admit that. I don't think I've seen Sleeping
• 1:10:56
  Beauty start to end, but I get the feeling that she just shows
• 1:11:00
  up and she's the villain and you accept it.
• 1:11:02
  But in the live action which I actually saw, we came out of
• 1:11:06
  that saying I feel badly for her.
• 1:11:08
  Right. Just like you feel, I think you
• 1:11:11
  were made to feel badly for Anakin.
• 1:11:13
  I, I feel badly for him. He was, he was tricked.
• 1:11:16
  He was duped into doing. He only did what he did to try
• 1:11:19
  to save the life of his the love of his life, and he was tricked.
• 1:11:25
  And then he falls into this deep dark state.
• 1:11:28
  So I'm going to go 92% on the first one and then easily 100%.
• 1:11:35
  That's where I put all markers. When I do Rotten Tomatoes.
• 1:11:38
  It's against the trilogy of. OK.
• 1:11:41
  The second trilogy, I just don't think you could.
• 1:11:46
  I don't think any other trilogy can hold the candle.
• 1:11:48
  I challenge anybody in chat to to to give me another trilogy in
• 1:11:52
  the in the history of film that is better than 4-5 and six
• 1:11:57
  incredible if you take. Six out of that, does the score
• 1:12:01
  drop? So if you take Return of the
• 1:12:04
  Jedi out, absolutely not. No, no.
• 1:12:09
  And I favorite no, no, Empire Strikes Back, empire #5 #5 if
• 1:12:14
  you take Empire out, no, it it doesn't change it.
• 1:12:17
  OK. I mean, I guess if I wanted to
• 1:12:21
  be fair, as a whole, it won't drop much.
• 1:12:26
  Maybe 9095 at the lowest. So yeah.
• 1:12:34
  And believe it or not, you know, episode 4 is the OG, right?
• 1:12:37
  But sometimes it's like thinking Magic Kingdom or Epcot, I feel,
• 1:12:43
  or even Hollywood, throw Hollywood in there.
• 1:12:45
  I feel guilty for picking one over the other.
• 1:12:47
  So I feel like I just should say, I mean, obviously, I guess
• 1:12:50
  I always say empires better. So if you break down A New Hope
• 1:12:54
  between Return of the Jedi, son, I, I feel like I like Return of
• 1:12:57
  the Jedi more than A New Hope, but A New Hope is so good.
• 1:13:00
  They're both a hundred 100% Rotten Tomatoes in my opinion.
• 1:13:05
  So again, it's probably a 100-A100B.
• 1:13:08
  And you saw A New Hope, New Hope in the theater.
• 1:13:13
  Original, yes. Yeah, that one I did not see.
• 1:13:16
  I I think I saw Empire Strikes Back maybe?
• 1:13:21
  Definitely Return to the Jedi. I've seen them all in theaters.
• 1:13:25
  Original in theaters. Wow.
• 1:13:28
  Yeah, I did 1975. Yeah, I wouldn't have been able
• 1:13:34
  to see 75. Yeah, I was five years old and I
• 1:13:38
  go, I don't know what this is, but I love it.
• 1:13:40
  I have no idea what's going on, but this is so cool.
• 1:13:45
  Yeah, and as far as the third trilogy, I would say now if it
• 1:13:52
  would have gone more of the way of Force Awakens, because I am a
• 1:13:56
  fan of Force Awakens. I do enjoy Force Awakens.
• 1:14:01
  I think it went downhill after that.
• 1:14:06
  Man, I would love to discuss this one with Jacob and I'm I'll
• 1:14:11
  take that one into account along with the other ones.
• 1:14:14
  Let's do an average. So if I give Force Awakens, AI
• 1:14:20
  would probably give Force Awakens an 85.
• 1:14:24
  And then if you give see, I can't remember the title of the
• 1:14:27
  second one. What was the title of the second
• 1:14:29
  one? It's so forgettable.
• 1:14:33
  It's funny, where I looked it up it it doesn't.
• 1:14:35
  It's not even showing that. So we have a standard, Jacob and
• 1:14:39
  I have a standard of how to rate things because we see close to
• 1:14:43
  50 movies in the theater a year. And so we like our own rating
• 1:14:47
  system and we did a study on it. We've talked about it.
• 1:14:50
  I think he remembers talking about that.
• 1:14:52
  And what we've come to is if something's rated 60% or higher
• 1:14:57
  than it's worth your money to go see in the in the theaters.
• 1:15:00
  Anything below 60 is not worth it.
• 1:15:04
  So was the second one worth it? Yeah, it was a decent night out.
• 1:15:08
  I'm going to give it a 60, and then I'd give the final one a
• 1:15:12
  little higher. Let's give that a 69.
• 1:15:15
  So whatever that average is is what I would give it.
• 1:15:19
  Did anybody work the calculators on that?
• 1:15:21
  So I don't know. I said something like what I say
• 1:15:25
  9, there's a 90 or so for Force Awakens.
• 1:15:29
  We'll just call it 90 and we'll call it 55 for the middle one.
• 1:15:34
  And then the last one was was maybe we'll give it.
• 1:15:39
  We'll go be generous and give it a 70 and divide that by 3.
• 1:15:43
  It's a 71%. I was going to say about 70. 72,
• 1:15:46
  if you round up, yeah, about 72%.
• 1:15:48
  I think that's fair. That was good analysis.
• 1:15:52
  That is good analysis. It's turned into a whole Star
• 1:15:54
  Wars episode. All right, one last one.
• 1:15:59
  This is planning or strategy. This would be an easy one.
• 1:16:04
  Rope drop or stay late for the fireworks.
• 1:16:09
  All right, before I do that, hey, why don't we just jump into

  So we're looking at what is it? Oh, it's, it's, it's, it's close
• 1:17:07
  the park down for me. There are times that I miss the
• 1:17:12
  mornings and I will if I have a day off.
• 1:17:15
  I'm just so excited to just start a park day.
• 1:17:20
  That rope drop. It's, it's, it's nice.
• 1:17:23
  There's just like this whole new beginning, right?
• 1:17:26
  This, this, these thoughts and expectations of how the day can
• 1:17:32
  unfold. So much fun ahead of you, all
• 1:17:35
  that. But there's something to be said
• 1:17:38
  about a park at night and you know that whatever night time
• 1:17:44
  spectacular is going on. So yeah, they they're both
• 1:17:51
  great. But I'm I'm going to go with the
• 1:17:53
  night time for me. Yeah.
• 1:17:55
  And and besides, if I if I get there early, it's really hard
• 1:17:58
  for me to leave, so there's a good chance of the rope
• 1:18:01
  dropping. I'm putting the rope up and turn
• 1:18:03
  the lights out. Right.
• 1:18:05
  You know, as I've been watching more YouTube, you know, I
• 1:18:08
  watched Disney with Sean in the morning, part of the network,
• 1:18:11
  theme park giant, part of the network.
• 1:18:13
  And I'm watching them work the parks really well in the
• 1:18:16
  daytime. Like theme park giant today did
• 1:18:19
  Space Mountain and Tron within like 40 minutes because he's
• 1:18:24
  rope dropping on a on a day where the park closes at 6 O
• 1:18:27
  clock. Part Magic closed at six O clock
• 1:18:29
  today for private party rental. So that's good.
• 1:18:34
  But here's the thing. A, I'm not that early of a
• 1:18:38
  morning person. And then B, if I got to choose,
• 1:18:42
  I want to see the fireworks. And it that question was just
• 1:18:45
  fireworks. It's not even taking into
• 1:18:47
  account Starlight Parade or Fantasmic, because I'm going to
• 1:18:52
  say Fantasmic is not fireworks. I don't, I don't include it.
• 1:18:56
  It's fireworks. So yeah, I'm going to say
• 1:18:59
  fireworks in fact, as usual. But hey, here's the smart thing.
• 1:19:02
  You could rope drop, take an afternoon break back to the
• 1:19:06
  resort, go swim and then head back to the parks for the
• 1:19:10
  evening. Split the difference.
• 1:19:14
  You could. You could definitely do that.
• 1:19:16
  But it is, like Corey said, it's very hard for many of us to
• 1:19:20
  leave the park once we're there. We could never leave.
• 1:19:23
  We could never leave. Never once have we ever said
• 1:19:26
  let's go, take a break and we'll come back.
• 1:19:28
  Heck no, we won't go. We probably, we'd have breakfast
• 1:19:31
  and we'd probably, we wouldn't quite rope drop, but we'd
• 1:19:34
  probably, I'm going to guess, get there about 10 to whatever
• 1:19:37
  park and we would be there to close it down.
• 1:19:39
  And again, we, we worked the parks.
• 1:19:43
  Certainly we didn't work the parks as well as we do now.
• 1:19:45
  We know more than we did before. But for people who were new at
• 1:19:49
  it, I feel like we, we did what was right for us.
• 1:19:51
  So we worked the kids until they were tired and I knew what rides
• 1:19:57
  that they wouldn't go on and what Tammy wouldn't go on.
• 1:19:59
  So we saved those. And when the kids fell asleep,
• 1:20:02
  Dad went on Space Mountain. Dad did this, Dad did that while
• 1:20:05
  they slept and then they came up refreshed.
• 1:20:08
  And we finished. We'd finish our night and day,
• 1:20:10
  day and night, whatever. Yeah, good stuff.
• 1:20:14
  Yeah, yeah. So I think it's always fun to do
• 1:20:19
  these games where the games give you some sort of conversation
• 1:20:24
  around it, You know, I mean, we went on a whole tangent about
• 1:20:27
  Star Wars and ranked Star Wars trilogies and.
• 1:20:31
  Yeah. Corey showed his love for
• 1:20:34
  episode 8, which he doesn't even remember the name of.
• 1:20:38
  Exactly. Might as well be.
• 1:20:40
  Accolade, and I'm a die hard fan.
• 1:20:42
  Yeah, yeah, might as well have named it Accolade.
• 1:20:45
  And I know 86 JB loved Accolade. Look, I looked it up and I still
• 1:20:50
  don't remember it the was it the Last Jedi?
• 1:20:55
  Yes, it was The Last Jedi. OK, there you go.
• 1:20:58
  I looked it up. I still don't remember, but no,
• 1:21:02
  it, you know, it's always fun to have these conversations about,
• 1:21:06
  about Disney. I mean, it's our it's our
• 1:21:07
  favorite thing. I've mentioned it when I came
• 1:21:11
  back from the Penn trading show. This is Disney family feud.
• 1:21:16
  So I we got plenty of stuff that we buy.
• 1:21:18
  I've got two other Disney board game back there that I can pull
• 1:21:22
  questions from. So we'll we'll have we'll have
• 1:21:25
  some fun. That's what I've been using.
• 1:21:26
  If you're watching the living in this live streams, I'm using
• 1:21:30
  that for some of the poll questions that I've been putting
• 1:21:33
  in. So you'll see some of those
• 1:21:35
  tomorrow night as we head to Magic.
• 1:21:38
  Sweet, sweet sweet. And Gilnack is just like me.
• 1:21:41
  She said she could never miss a minute of the magic, even an 18
• 1:21:44
  day. Nice, yes, telling you.
• 1:21:47
  Yep. So tomorrow night, tomorrow
• 1:21:48
  night we're at Magic Kingdom live.
• 1:21:50
  We'll take what the part gives us and we'll run around and do
• 1:21:53
  some live pin trading and enjoy some Starlight and we will enjoy
• 1:21:59
  happily ever after. We we'll see what we'll do, kind
• 1:22:04
  of what we did on Saturdays. We ended up doing all three, but
• 1:22:08
  we'll see what the parks doing. Should be better than it was
• 1:22:13
  last Wednesday or last Saturday as well, but again with a party
• 1:22:17
  tonight even though it's not a Halloween party.
• 1:22:20
  Park closes at six, so Magic may be a little busier tomorrow
• 1:22:26
  night, but not as busy as last week.
• 1:22:29
  Last week was out of control. I may have to, yeah.
• 1:22:34
  And I'll probably have to go to my spot a little bit earlier
• 1:22:36
  than I have been lately because the cat's been let out of the
• 1:22:39
  bag a little bit. I think the key is to just get
• 1:22:41
  to that little stand that is open a little bit before it
• 1:22:45
  closes. And I think it started closing
• 1:22:46
  at 8. So got it.
• 1:22:48
  Might be a might be a 740 kind of time to show up there and
• 1:22:52
  kind of see what's happening. So yeah, we'll keep giving you
• 1:22:59
  guys the good show that we that we have.
• 1:23:01
  I think it's working out well. The new tech that we're using.
• 1:23:05
  We'll have a couple new surprises when I come back from
• 1:23:08
  the cruise, hopefully. So tomorrow night I'll be
• 1:23:13
  producing and then Corey will have two streams on his own as I
• 1:23:20
  will be out in the water and not bringing all this equipment with
• 1:23:23
  me so. You should really bring it and
• 1:23:25
  just work from the deck. Nope, Nope, Nope.
• 1:23:30
  So but then we'll we'll jump into some some cool stuff.
• 1:23:33
  So location tracker should be on tomorrow.
• 1:23:37
  I've got an air tag that Corey attaches to his neck so that we
• 1:23:40
  can see where he's where he's at.
• 1:23:43
  So that'll that's how you get your your.
• 1:23:45
  Location. You're working on a detection.
• 1:23:47
  I think you worked on an injection I'm getting You can
• 1:23:49
  just shoot my neck. Yeah, yeah, you can track me.
• 1:23:52
  What's it called when it's under the skin?
• 1:23:54
  Sub Subcrutaneous. Subdermal, subdermal, probably
• 1:23:58
  subdermal. Subdermal.
• 1:24:00
  There you go. I don't know.
• 1:24:02
  It's not my field. Ask me about floor choices
• 1:24:05
  there. You go, not my.
• 1:24:07

  It's all good stuff. Here's a couple.
• 1:24:27
  Here's here's a here's a look at just something that sits on my
• 1:24:29
  desk all the time. I was just looking down.
• 1:24:32
  Want to see the two of the coolest pop figures and they
• 1:24:34
  face each other as well. You might need to go big screen
• 1:24:37
  on me close up. Look at this everybody from the
• 1:24:42
  greatest film of all time. It is Empire Strikes Back.
• 1:24:46
  Han is in his binders, his cuffs right there and Leia is reaching
• 1:24:52
  out to him. It's the I love you.
• 1:24:53
  I know. Scene very cool.
• 1:24:59
  Yeah, very cool. I have.
• 1:25:03
  All right, But I have some. But they're not Star Wars, and
• 1:25:07
  they're not out-of-the-box. Oh I have, I have a Marty McFly.
• 1:25:10
  I should take him. We are going to to Back to the
• 1:25:14
  Future on Halloween night, 4DX in Orlando.
• 1:25:18
  Can't wait for that experience. I'll talk about it on the live
• 1:25:21
  stream on November 1st when we're out there.
• 1:25:25
  I will probably miss. I did want to see that in the
• 1:25:29
  theaters. I think it would be a lot of fun
• 1:25:31
  and it's one of Catherine's favorite movies.
• 1:25:32
  But we have a six year old who's probably going to want to trick
• 1:25:37
  or treat so. Yeah, I don't know, I was trying
• 1:25:44
  to come up with something. Maybe Purple Pleasure could take
• 1:25:48
  her trick or treating. But then Catherine, we'll want
• 1:25:53
  to take Finley trick or treating so.
• 1:25:56
  Yeah, you don't want to do those times.
• 1:25:57
  Yeah, no, we'll, we'll, we'll skip it.
• 1:26:00
  We'll skip it, but. All right, everyone.
• 1:26:02
  It's all good. So, all right, we'll see you all
• 1:26:06
