[SPEAKER_03]: And welcome to very amusing, your one-stop shop for the story secrets and shenanigans of a popcorn-fueled theme park-drug list.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm currently myself, and I'm convinced that my shirt is too loud.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think my shirt is too loud, I just slipped it off, and where are other clothes?
[SPEAKER_03]: Calm down.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just slipped it off while I was recording this, because if you remember, the video I posted of my dolly would haul, also calling it a haul when most things I bought were secondhand, it was very funny.
[SPEAKER_03]: My dolly would haul, and then that, and I did that cut, that, like,
[SPEAKER_03]: Stitch video, whatever you call it, not stitch like Lee Lungsit, which was stitch like putting footage together of me being like, I bought this big shirt and I love it I'm wearing that big shirt the same way I said in that dolly with video.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was going to over bike shorts and a sports bra over athletic gear And yeah, my athletic gear is from when I was eight months pregnant.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's fine It's somehow still fits elastic really can blow someone's mind because I had a nine pound baby in these shorts fit and they still fit and aren't baggy
[SPEAKER_03]: How does that work?
[SPEAKER_03]: Fabrics are wild.
[SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, that's sure I love it, but I think it's a little too hot for recording, and we can't have that interrupting what is a very momentous day because at the time that you are hearing this.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now keep in mind, I recorded this in advance.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm currently in Walt Disney World.
[SPEAKER_03]: At the time, you're listening to this.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is possible that I have been on a Muppets coaster.
[SPEAKER_03]: There is before Muppets coaster, and there is after Muppets coaster.
[SPEAKER_03]: And this may be coming to you through your headphones, through your car speakers, through your phone, that you play loudly, that may be someone you live with, is like, oh, get this woman to show it up!
[SPEAKER_03]: We have your listening to this, it is possible that you are, this is the, maybe one of the last, one of the last few recordings of someone.
[SPEAKER_03]: B.C.
[SPEAKER_03]: before coaster.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am truly so excited.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's going to be a wild week.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm bringing Pearl on a work trip.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're going to hear all about it next week.
[SPEAKER_03]: But really, I cannot, I cannot wait to see what I think about them off its coaster.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, I like it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, it hurt my neck and I'll complain about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what to stay tuned and follow me on social media.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you don't know already, if you listen to this podcast and you don't follow me on Instagram, feel like you're missing a big piece of the puzzle.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm going to post as much as I can
[SPEAKER_03]: Now this week we have a gab sash.
[SPEAKER_03]: Again, I recorded this before I left, but we had plenty to talk about.
[SPEAKER_03]: I left a running tally of all the things I wanted to discuss all month long.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I have so many little tidbits we're going to get into.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope you are having a great month.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope, um, all is well.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't believe them a more real day than a few days.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope they know I see them in every podcast and just like I can't believe it's this month.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I can't believe this month.
[SPEAKER_03]: Stick around.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have so much to talk about, so I'm not going to blow to the beginning.
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, stay tuned and we're going to, we're going to touch that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, we're going to touch that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't wait to touch that.
[SPEAKER_03]: In my last, my last BC podcast.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hello and welcome back.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to let you know up top that I'm so paranoid about making background noise in this episode right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know why I'm hyper focused on it, but basically, welcome to Gapset, we're just getting right into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have a ton of stuff I want to talk about, but first thing, if you hear like this, those are my bracelets.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you hear this, that's that gigantic polo shirt that I bought that I can't stop talking about because it was like $8 and it's so soft and it's lovely, and then if you hear
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if that'll come through in the edit.
[SPEAKER_03]: That is me standing on my walking pad because it took me so long to drag this thing out from under my bed to bring it back in my office that I'm like, if I nudge it all away from my standing desk, I will never walk on it again.
[SPEAKER_03]: And my steps have been so low that my limbs are sore.
[SPEAKER_03]: The limbs are like sore from sitting, which is not like I need to move around like get the juices float.
[SPEAKER_03]: I gotta be moving, my brain needs it more than my body, Austin, my brain needs it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And so if I move this walking pad, I will never sit but I did again.
[SPEAKER_03]: So we are glued.
[SPEAKER_03]: So if you hear any of this,
[SPEAKER_03]: You hear any of that?
[SPEAKER_03]: That's just me trying to function with severe ADHD as an adult who has no boss and is her own boss and probably could use some structure.
[SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, hello and welcome to gab session.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is really fun that we do these every month because there's always new stuff we have to discuss.
[SPEAKER_03]: And this month, I honestly, I made an outline that was a bunch of non Disney stuff, but in preparation for the trip, I realized there's so much going on at Disney World that it's just kind of getting like lost in the shuffle.
[SPEAKER_03]: Again, I do this provisionally, I'm officially talking about the works.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I had to do research to be like, wait, what?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, wait, what is opening?
[SPEAKER_03]: I had to fact check stuff with PR.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was a little confused on what is opening.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think you're, if I'm confused about what is opening and happening this summer, Disney World, other people are definitely gonna be confused.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am there right now as you're listening to this.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I know it's gonna be chaos.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am sharing a room with my mom and my toddler, which means that I can't stay up until 2am making little videos.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm nervous about it, you guys.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm bringing her on a work trip and I brought her on work trips, like I brought her on the Alaskan cruise, but that wasn't really like newsworthy.
[SPEAKER_03]: That was more an experience that I came back and reported about, and I've taken her on.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I took her on the Disney Magic, but that also was something I came back and reported about.
[SPEAKER_03]: I haven't really been with her at Disney World for a work event ever.
[SPEAKER_03]: And the only time that she was ever with me and it worked and it Disney was when my vacation this is like my first post-part vacation with Pearl and she was nine months old happened to coincide with the local media event and they were like, oh, come join us for fireworks and I brought her and she was baby so she, you know, had a, she started crying and she was upset and we left.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I, my track record is zero.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I am hoping that I'm able to at least keep you posted while I'm there.
[SPEAKER_03]: If not, we will recover it all next week.
[SPEAKER_03]: But for now, I just want to get ahead of it a bit because I know it's going to be a chaotic week, and I want to make sure that I'm giving you all of the info so that you know what is happening when everyone in your feed is at Disney World, bopping between all of these half-dozen experiences.
[SPEAKER_03]: So let's get into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Starting with Soryne Across America.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is one of those things that just appeared like a blip and I'm like, yeah, one day it'll be Soryne Across America.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's happening now.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's happening July 2nd to Disneyland, but May 26th it will Disney World.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I didn't realize this was a full-fledged shoot.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like they're going to have more than a dozen locations.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what this is going to be.
[SPEAKER_03]: I cannot wait to find out because I was looking around and it seems like there's almost no gossip about where the locations are going to be.
[SPEAKER_03]: I completely forgot that we were getting a basically what like a brand new sword and there's no information out about this.
[SPEAKER_03]: I cannot wait to hopefully tell you firsthand, but if not, we will all find out very soon.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't know something new and sword is always exciting.
[SPEAKER_03]: What if there's new sense?
[SPEAKER_03]: A new sense?
[SPEAKER_03]: Ooh, that would be great.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love that it's Disneyland and Disney worlds.
[SPEAKER_03]: We get to take part in it over at Disneyland.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're doing it for the July 4th weekend, which I think is very cute.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that's very cute.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm excited about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: But the headline, of course, of the entire trip is rock and roller coasters starring the Muppets.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just think it's so wild that in our lifetime, we are now going to experience a Muppets coaster.
[SPEAKER_03]: And think about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, the Muppets right now are not the favorite property at the Walt Disney Company haven't been in a minute.
[SPEAKER_03]: They just did the Muppet Show, which was a one off.
[SPEAKER_03]: at the time of recording this, which was right around the Disney up front, so I might be speaking it into existence.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have not heard of a full season renewal or full season episode order for the Muppet Show.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like we have got no news about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And yet they're about to open a ride themed to these characters.
[SPEAKER_03]: And if the company is investing in them in a big way,
[SPEAKER_03]: permanently in the theme park giving them a ride like rides don't change over that often.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like no matter what happens We're gonna have a muppets coaster for minimum 1520 years.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is wild to me that like you know like we're gonna We gotta talk about like the like
[SPEAKER_03]: Like they didn't run new moffits mayhem like the the show that's kind of based on the band that the rods Well, they didn't renew it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know I'm doing it on the side of my mouth, but like it's not a secret It's a fact there's no new episodes because they didn't renew it.
[SPEAKER_03]: They didn't give it a new season and moffits have been a franchise that all of us love so much, but they've really struggled to gain their footing in television programming in the past five ten years
[SPEAKER_03]: and it's so wild to me that like there is a chance that a few months from now maybe a year from now the muppets could have a thriving television show and a beloved, like widely, uh, frequently visited thrill ride in a theme park.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's so funny to be like wait.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, like, they closed Muppets courtyard partially because Muppet Vision 3D obviously like no one will know I can't say no one because I guess we're gonna have in the podcast and few weeks literally did buy a ticket for Hollywood Studios to go to Muppet Vision 3D but people generally speaking weren't like the driving factor to get on a plane and fly to Hollywood Studios which now
[SPEAKER_03]: Now as I say that I have done to go to Muppet's proper pizza riso, I am not a good case study for this, all right?
[SPEAKER_03]: But what I'm saying in general, if you ignore me and the people that I call my close company, if you ignore all of that, the vast majority of the public are not flying to Disney world for Muppet's courtyard.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just a thing that's there.
[SPEAKER_03]: But now this is the new thrill ride that they're hairling, and it's just so wild to wrap my head around the fact, again, that we, this could be the Muppet's resurgence,
[SPEAKER_03]: this plus if they have a show on the people love like we did it like our dreams are so close to coming true and that is so exciting that it's all happening for our Muppets obsessed community.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's really, it's really, really, really nice.
[SPEAKER_03]: But before we get deep into it like if my low blood pressure ravaged body will survive the rickety upside downs of this aerosmith predecessor, I am nervous about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to be drinking a lot of liquid IV and I'm just going to make it work.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to quickly recap what the story line of the new rock and roller coaster actually is because I feel like we're getting a lot of like excitement exclamation points and animal videos and big shiny food stripe gum guitar.
[SPEAKER_03]: I read the Disney Park's blog post about it and it is quite confusing, so I tried to break it down from their language into a more straightforward way.
[SPEAKER_03]: What's happening on Rock and Rollercoaster's throwing them up is that the electric main hand is headlining a sold out concert in Hollywood, but the band is nowhere to be found.
[SPEAKER_03]: Your VIP tour kicks off inside G-Force Records, which is recently come under new management by Scooters Uncle Real Estate Tycoon and owner of the Muppet Theatre J.P.
[SPEAKER_03]: Gross.
[SPEAKER_03]: With your VIP passes, I love that they retained a lot of the Rock and Rollercoaster lore.
[SPEAKER_03]: With your VIP passes, you'll be welcome inside the recording studio where the electric mayhem are cranking out familiar tunes of can you picture that?
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, a Disney fan would raise a little paddle like there's an auction and probably say why isn't that song in the coaster and I'm going to say, that's about my pig rate.
[SPEAKER_03]: Scooter and Muppet Eve penguins are working his engineers, those are animatronics.
[SPEAKER_03]: So we have those, I mean, I would love an animatronic hermit, but it doesn't look weird.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to, um, they're going to do their best to convince the electric mayhem to stop jamming and get to the show.
[SPEAKER_03]: but will it be enough to get them there on time?
[SPEAKER_03]: Thanks to the newest technological advancements from Muppet Labs, you'll board a lengthy immediate motion object, a limo, waga waga, and you will head your way to the show.
[SPEAKER_03]: At this point in time, you all might know by now.
[SPEAKER_03]: I currently do not know, like, are we going to see Kermit or are we going to see Fasi?
[SPEAKER_03]: I need my friends.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope I see them.
[SPEAKER_03]: But, like, regardless, I'm just so...
[SPEAKER_03]: blissfully shocked that we're getting this and so happy about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm so happy about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I haven't been on it yet at this time.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like at the time that I'm recording this, but it just is not.
[SPEAKER_03]: I did not think that we would like a light switch would flip and we'd all the sudden be like
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm I'm really happy about it and I hope it's going to be great and I just like like really we all need to band together just take a moment to realize that they got rid of air Smith and brought in the love bits do you remember when there was that rumor that it was going to be Taylor Swift I thought
[SPEAKER_03]: It was of course gonna be Jonas Brothers.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like they're gonna partner with Jonas Brothers or another like Disney centric Super popular global band.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're gonna do them closer together.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like it's gonna be just like air Smith with a different act But no, we got the Muppet and I'm halfway convinced.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe I'm chronically online too much But I am pretty convinced that we made so much freaking noise on the internet that someone like looked at the numbers when baby B-B-B-B-B-B-B and was like, oh, we have to give them something
[SPEAKER_03]: And that's how we got it like I am convinced in my heart of hearts that we got rock and roller coaster to be appeased because we all lost our minds when they got rid of them off its courtyard and guess what I'm appeased Even if the ride let's say the ride doesn't work.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's say you like just go boop.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like a train.
[SPEAKER_03]: You don't even go upside down.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's no coast anymore.
[SPEAKER_03]: Even if there's no right, we now have a full muppet gift shop open once again.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's Disney World.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm so I'm so I'm so excited.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: So when you're listening to this is the first big day of the event.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm recording this a few days before.
[SPEAKER_03]: I still don't have a night dinner area.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't really know what exactly I'm doing when.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't know if you've already saw this if I already posted it, but if I haven't,
[SPEAKER_03]: I may be breaking news here.
[SPEAKER_03]: I apparently supposedly am going to be interviewing the electric mayhem in person.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know, and I've had muppets on the podcast twice, but I've never, I've never met a muppet in person.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've seen the electric mayhem perform when I went to the premiere of Muppets Mayhem, but like I've never, I've never spoken to a muppet.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm, I think it's very huge for me.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm trying to downplay it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I will be sweating through my clothes.
[SPEAKER_03]: You will see video footage of it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, just huge circles under my arms because my body will not be able to process it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, I'm very physically all thinking about how overwhelming it's gonna be.
[SPEAKER_03]: At least, like, if it was, if it was like Kermit and Miss Piggy together, which I know some people recently experienced, I think I would probably have to go to that Disney-themed wing of the nearby hospital.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like that didn't you know they've like the Disney or Disney world like it had been health or whatever like I would be straight shot there But it is electric mayhem I have spoken to them before I've already interviewed them so this is a little bit like I feel broken in I feel good and if you have not seen that yet It means it is coming and I cannot wait
[SPEAKER_03]: I just hope it all goes well.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope the writers good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope the songs are good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope the merch is good.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I just can't believe that in 2026, I am currently at a Muppets centric Disney World event.
[SPEAKER_03]: Wild guys.
[SPEAKER_03]: Absolutely.
[SPEAKER_03]: Wild.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now to change gears to a different fandom.
[SPEAKER_03]: Blending Falcon Smugglers run as we know it is going to change forever.
[SPEAKER_03]: On May 22nd on both coasts, which as you know is this Friday, we are going to get Mandalorian and Grogu
[SPEAKER_03]: The description on the website of the ride is so funny, because it's Loki, like corporate speak for, we've heard your complaints, we're listening and learning, and we're going to change it for good.
[SPEAKER_03]: It says something like, for the first time ever, the crew will be in control of their own destination.
[SPEAKER_03]: But this is my favorite part.
[SPEAKER_03]: A new gameplay addition allows the engineer positions to communicate with Grogu during the mission, which is fully them being like, we've heard you wear listening.
[SPEAKER_03]: Engineers are the worst position on this vehicle.
[SPEAKER_03]: We understand, but don't worry, we have a special little treat for you if you're stuck in the back while children are piloting this.
[SPEAKER_03]: Will that make it enough to make engineer a worthy position?
[SPEAKER_03]: I do not know, but either way, I am very excited about these changes that when happening a galaxy's edge, which I don't even think we've discussed beyond Todd being on the podcast, but just to catch everyone up to speed, in the Star Wars themed galaxy's edge land at Disneyland.
[SPEAKER_03]: And remember this land is that Disneyland and Disney World, for the one at Disneyland, they have started to embrace the original Star Wars trilogy characters and plotlines,
[SPEAKER_03]: Darth Vader replaces Kylo Ren around the park, not inside the attraction to this other park.
[SPEAKER_03]: We've got Luke Skywalker on solo Princess Leia, but to me most importantly, they've changed the inland audio from the world-making scene setting soundtrack that was interspersed with like
[SPEAKER_03]: They like space craft flying over Hanlon mechanical noises.
[SPEAKER_03]: It really kind of set the location to audio bits of the classic Star Wars score Currently, this is only a Disneyland park.
[SPEAKER_03]: Currently, I am happy with the changes.
[SPEAKER_03]: There are critiques that are very fair and valid about the Star Wars soundtrack just getting old after a while Which I do hope they've eventually blended it to
[SPEAKER_03]: But when you add Mandalorian and grew into one of the rides and you add them music we know and love, this new isch version of Star Wars Galaxy's Edge does feel more holistic with everything at the Walt Disney Company right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: The decision to theme the land to the newer trilogy, I think was misguided.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, and rumor has it, which I think we've never seen this other time.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think we need to say this now, rumor has it.
[SPEAKER_03]: The Bob Iger was the one who made that choice.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I love that they, I love that they launched with something so thoughtful and so cool and so I'm gonna say it immersive.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I really, really like that now they are giving people what they want in this land.
[SPEAKER_03]: I like seeing a land that develops over time.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the ethos of a Disney park.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I really love that they're bringing in different things and now we get to actually see what it feels like to be in the same location without any actual physical changes and feel differently in the same space to me that's like one of the coolest things that you can do with design and I'm very very excited about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And my gripe lives on many years on.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you are not going to have droids rolling around this Star Wars planet in mass, you gotta at least give us Darth Vader.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like if you're not, you're still not filled with droids.
[SPEAKER_03]: This land should have been filled with droids.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not gonna rant about it again.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've ranted about it many times.
[SPEAKER_03]: Darth Vader there makes me get me something.
[SPEAKER_03]: You got to give me something.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was like a Disney land.
[SPEAKER_03]: They were selling mandalortman mandalorean and growgoo popped off when baby Yoda was the culture They were selling baby Yoda stuff truly like like the one foot step outside the land like right where the path changed towards Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Look right where it changed near famsy land.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was like
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's just weird like it didn't make sense that we were living in a world where we were at a Disney theme park A place that celebrates Disney characters that we watch at home on Disney Plus and we go to the movie theaters to watch on screen I mean, Astric not always Star Wars, even though there's new movie out there has been new movie in a while But like you're so invested in these characters and then you go to the land and it's like, oh sorry You have to be in like the exit hallway if you want to purchase anything
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just, it was very discordant.
[SPEAKER_03]: It didn't make a lot of sense.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm really happy too that they're only doing one of these right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know people yell about Disneyland privilege a lot.
[SPEAKER_03]: But, in fact, we're getting this Disneyland.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have Disneyland, we have Disneyland, we can see these two parallel worlds and see which one works.
[SPEAKER_03]: And maybe they can tinker them both to eventually blend the soundtracks, maybe blend the characters a bit and just make it feel like everyone's ideal version of Star Wars Galaxy's Edge.
[SPEAKER_03]: So yes, May 22nd this week at both parks, small glurs run will be shifting and I'm excited to see what it is and I'm excited to see if engineer is now a not as terrible position.
[SPEAKER_03]: Something else that is happening in Disney's Hollywood studios that I truly had to reach out to Disney World about because I was so confused about the details.
[SPEAKER_03]: But there is this area called the Walt Disney Studios that is opening May 26, along with a Disney junior Mickey Mouse clubhouse live show.
[SPEAKER_03]: And there's a lot of like art of Disney animation, there's a lot of different titles here, and I just want to break down for you what it is.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because again, I had to clarify it because I was so confused and I want to make sure we are all on the same page.
[SPEAKER_03]: So next week, May 26th.
[SPEAKER_03]: The Walt Disney Studios courtyard space and outdoor space it sounds like a park outdoors space.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll take it and that Disney Junior life should I tell you about are going to open.
[SPEAKER_03]: Any future to be announced date, I think the official verbiage is later this summer, is going to be the magic of Disney animation.
[SPEAKER_03]: And this is going to reclaim the space from Star Wars launch bay and have
[SPEAKER_03]: A multitude of experiences that I'm almost kind of like you guys can put a little bit in there because it sounds like a lot There's gonna be drawn to Wonderland, which is sort of like a very player inspired kids play area And I think it's indoors which like stars stars stars stars stars stars stars five stars Across the board for that character meets and off the page a rotating cast of characters I love you can meet anyone from like stitch to a princess a lot of draws Which is their version of animation academy and the once upon a time.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, sorry
[SPEAKER_03]: theater.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I got to say for someone who rags on Disney's Hollywood studios a lot.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, a lot.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm racking on this park.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's a whole lot of new going down around these parts.
[SPEAKER_03]: In this area, this little Walt Disney Studios themed area sounds very cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you weren't confused about what's going on there, and this is news to you, same dude, like I didn't realize that's what they were doing in this space.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, the Walt Disney Studios exterior, it sounds like it's the exterior courtyard-green model.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're billing it as a relaxed park-like setting designed for families to explore.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is all I've been yelling about forever, and if there's shade, I'm gonna have no complaints.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll take it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, it just seems like something we really, really want.
[SPEAKER_03]: And while I'm a little sad that I'm not gonna see the extension of like where launch base to be, and everything they're putting in there, it sounds really great, and I'm really happy about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, there's a lot of stuff where I'm like, oh, interesting.
[SPEAKER_03]: Can't wait to see an in person, and so I'm very excited to come back next week, and to discuss it all with you.
[SPEAKER_03]: We've also got Biggest Under Mountain Railroad, which
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry, I know I'm a news source, but this is a GAM App Sandweek and I'm going in no spoiler.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just, I want to report on it for you when I return because there's been a lot of changes and I really think it's best if I cover them from the vantage point of having seen it.
[SPEAKER_03]: So put a pin in that!
[SPEAKER_03]: But Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is back and hopefully, hopefully, still great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Also, Blueies Wild World, opening May 26th, a conservation station at Disney's Animal Kingdom.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the place you take the train to.
[SPEAKER_03]: They are billing this as an experience where you can play and dance with Blueie and Bingo.
[SPEAKER_03]: Play some of your favorite games from Blueie episodes with a fun animal twist, like Butterfly, KBP, I guess.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it sounds, it sounds like you can maybe hug them.
[SPEAKER_03]: Unlike Disneyland where there is not a meet and greet, and actually the format of that show is kind of changed, and it's not like the dance party it was when I experienced it at the media preview, but it sounds like there's going to be some sort of meet and greet, which is no joke like straight up, you guys.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's kind of the main reason I'm flying solo cross-country with the top of a work trip, because
[SPEAKER_03]: Listen, if I can any sort of media access to meet Blueie, I'm gonna take it, okay?
[SPEAKER_03]: I report objectively on everything, but like, if I can meet Blueie as my kid, I'm gonna do it, and if Blueie was meeting in the park, maybe my tune would be changed, but they, as far as I know,
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't sell ice coffee out of conservation station.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I do not have the patience and the mental capacity to take a train to a destination, be there, wait with no caffeine and then make it back.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is just how I am right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm just kneeling at the altar of coffee bean right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's just how I survive that's how I'm getting through these toddler years.
[SPEAKER_03]: I dream of job-free as you guys.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, no joke.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if it's like,
[SPEAKER_03]: I, like, I don't know if this is something you could bring, like, I do feel like maybe need to go to therapy for this.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if I could ever bring this up and be like, when I zone out at workout classes and I am at peace, my empty, calm brain goes straight to job free.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's so unhinged, but when I'm like doing, you know, like the eighth rep with the tiny weight of the arm stuff, I'm just like dreaming, I'm just like, in my mind, I'm just walking, walking towards a job free stand.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, there's bees there.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not perfect.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not ideal.
[SPEAKER_03]: They always bees.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: Would be a very stressful place to work for me, but I like it's like, oh, I just imagine me like, what are you going to make a place with a pump of vanilla for you?
[SPEAKER_03]: And I just imagine taking that first sip like that is what I want me to do when my brain is truly at ease when I'm calm and I'm rested I'm dreaming of a shaking Jamaican, and so that is why I'm really excited for hopefully hernemy Blueie.
[SPEAKER_03]: I did on my failed first attempt to go to dollywood
[SPEAKER_03]: We did spend some time there and hung out with the animals and talked to the cast members and work with the animals.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was really fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: It'll be really cool to experience Blueie next to that whole area where there's a bunch of animals that you can meet and interact with.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it'll be very cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it'll be cool to see the difference between that and the Disney land live show set up.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't believe I admitted that when I'm in my happy place, like if you watch scandal, like when Olivia Pope's brain is on the beach relaxing, like a corona commercial, I'm just truly at Epcot sweating through my cotton tank top.
[SPEAKER_03]: Just sipping on a joffrey's happy as I'll ever I am a simple woman with simple demands.
[SPEAKER_03]: Alright, there are some recent changes that I'm sure I'm going to catch while I'm in town That happens between my February, I mean as if I lose a trip and now Namely updates to the Buzz Lightyear space I don't I did not want to say the full name of that ride I don't know why my body just stopped me buzz like your space ranger span and frozen ever after
[SPEAKER_03]: There are new laser blasters updated targets, like truly sounds like a huge enhancement of Buzz Lightyear, and I'm very looking forward to that because I haven't been on that right in a minute, and it sounds like they were working for a long time, and I think it was eight months if I'm telling it, right?
[SPEAKER_03]: They worked on that for a long time, they seemed pretty hyped about it, so I'm stoked.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then frozen it for after.
[SPEAKER_03]: There are two things, as you know, that I complained about deeply about that ride.
[SPEAKER_03]: One, the empty black hallway.
[SPEAKER_03]: Nobody should be designing a ride with a black, blank hallway, and two, the contouring nightmare of that facial protection.
[SPEAKER_03]: And long last, they have updated that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, if they get just truly just like hang a couple of touch lights in the hallway, I'd be thrilled, I'd have no more complaints.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I actually have not Google these figures.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am going in fully fresh.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to see them firsthand, and I'm very excited about it because that every time I went on the ride,
[SPEAKER_03]: like this.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a franchise.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're going to have what five films, four or five films for Frozen, like we, why do the faces look like that?
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm so glad that as, you know, so many other places around the world get these beautiful, like, robust, soup to not brand new Frozen lands that we're getting a little bit of that magic, too, over at Disney World.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that is it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I honestly, I thought I would have my itinerary by now, and I was gonna talk to you about it, but I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I haven't even packed yet.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know you're listening to me while I'm there and I'm wearing clothes, so we worked out.
[SPEAKER_03]: But we will find out.
[SPEAKER_03]: We will find out.
[UNKNOWN]: But, oh!
[SPEAKER_03]: I also want to tell you about the club 33T that I went to.
[SPEAKER_03]: It Disneyland and it is a little imagine me like pretend brushing my hair back like shhh.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, the club 332 experience.
[SPEAKER_03]: But my friend had there was like, this sounds cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's go opening day.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's go right away.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like,
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm going to say that when you tell me to show you some in me to hang out with all my friends all day at Disneyland and go to a themed meal I am there this is obviously my crew that I go to the rainforest cafe river ride and dolly wood and we go on all of our adventures together same group
[SPEAKER_03]: If you listen to the concept we need to episode all that same crew.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I was like, yeah, we're going to need we're going to do that.
[SPEAKER_03]: And we really kind of loveliest time.
[SPEAKER_03]: I will say the food is fancy.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't always want a piece of meat at like one PM in the middle of a California afternoon.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not always my favorite, but this feet like that's why.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like a regular club 33 meal is like fancy food and you sit in it's fancy But this had the whimsy of like the teapotizers and like ooh the tea desserts and the theme it was just so It was so lovely.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not a merch person as you know I don't buy a lot of theme park stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're actually gonna talk about that a little later in the episode But I caved we all we basically walked in we saw a hat because when you walk into club 33
[SPEAKER_03]: Basically, you walk in the door and there's always people are staring and they're like, oh, they're in closer three and I if full imposter syndrome I'm not a member.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm just a guest so I'm walking in being like nobody kicked me out Nobody seen me like please.
[SPEAKER_03]: I live on my best behavior.
[SPEAKER_03]: I won't take any videos like I'm just always so panicked and like
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, we walk in and there's a glass when you walk in, you like the member checks in and then there's a glass case with merchandise in it and we all saw like my friend Brandon and I, and I don't know if Heather spotted it first.
[SPEAKER_03]: We were like, we're gonna need that.
[SPEAKER_03]: And as you know, if I'm shopping and I see something and I go, I need that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like that's how I got that spirit jersey at that spirit jersey party.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is the Lord shirt.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like, I'm good to need that.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like a visceral poll.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it was this pink and purple treasure cat hat.
[SPEAKER_03]: kind of like those wintery hats that they have at the Tokyo Parks.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, I need that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I, that hat, that hat has to come home with me.
[SPEAKER_03]: And we all bought the hats.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now we have like sister to the traveling pants, but hats, but everyone has one.
[SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't have to share hats.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm just really excited about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm really excited about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: But, um, yeah, the tea was lovely.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was a really nice time.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is, you know, piracy.
[SPEAKER_03]: As those things are but I was like to spend the whole day truly all day and all night with my friends was so that doesn't happen I'm not a Disneyland at night ever anymore And so it was just really nice to spend the whole afternoon in the whole evening with my pals And I just had a great time.
[SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't have a great time We're really I mean this whole episode is going to be for the portion of this Up the gap session, but the last thing I want to mention
[SPEAKER_03]: As at the time of recording this, we still don't know universal fast and furious coaster opening date for universal studios Hollywood and now that I say that a lot I know we're immediately going to get it it's just going to like Into the ether it's going to get announced between the time I speak these words into a microphone in this episode gets uploaded on the back end just know if it does I summoned it for us.
[SPEAKER_03]: but it's summertime like I'm on I'm at Disney's summer event and I'm way non-universal studios to tell you about their coaster and it's going to really be wild.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm I really want to dedicate a full episode to how they designed this because there were a lot of external sound factors they had to keep in mind for designing this for the neighboring community.
[SPEAKER_03]: Ellie doesn't have a coaster and outdoor coaster like this that is so close with an ear shot to many many homes.
[SPEAKER_03]: And so I'm really curious how they're able to design this and build around that and just really make something special.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is, we're all like, like, listen, like, we're in the street.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're all in the theme park.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're very excited about this.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're going to have a real thrill ride, like a real outdoor full-fledged coaster so close to so many of our homes.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's something we have not had before.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you have the mommy
[SPEAKER_03]: But that's not the same, this is different.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's so exciting and I just can't wait.
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, we're gonna take a quick break and we're gonna get back with so many things that I gotta talk to you about, oh my god, this is a real Gabby one.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a real Gabby one.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, I'll be right back.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's take a round.
[SPEAKER_03]: Talk in a moment.
[SPEAKER_03]: Welcome back early on in my podcast and career everyone on my quote unquote team I guess you call it we're like you know if you're at the so it is creeping past 45 50 minutes an hour You should really be splitting it in half and making two episodes on of it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It'll really help your process You'll have a lot more free time.
[SPEAKER_03]: It'll be a lot easier on you and I would always be like no
[SPEAKER_03]: I'd be like no like I can't pick something up a week later.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's not how my brain work like I mean I could make it at the same time But listening I'd be like wait this again to realize last week with the difference I can't do it this happens.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it's running long and I'm starting to remember their words and feel like yeah It is aggressive to post hour and a half long episodes
[SPEAKER_03]: that I know some of you out there are jogging.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hello to my runners.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know some of you out there are like, you know, like you want a little more because you have a long commute.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know some of you out there are my podcast mascot, Jeffrey, hi Jeffrey.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I just want you, I want to give you all the most of me every week, maybe to a fault, but we're gonna do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And we don't know how much left, but we're gonna do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Our next, we'll know that's not our next.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, what's our next?
[SPEAKER_03]: Hold on.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh yeah, things I've done lately that I want to chat with you about, and boy, do we have a few?
[SPEAKER_03]: I saw the Delaware's product, too, and I'm not going to spoil it, but it was excellent.
[SPEAKER_03]: I went with, oh my god, this whole podcast is like, everyone I have in my podcast, I guess is a friend in real life, isn't that nice?
[SPEAKER_03]: I went with, friend in the podcast, Rebecca Cerrell, and our other friend Lauren, and we went to go see it, and Rebecca's like,
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm grabbing tickets because she's way more organized than me.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, oh, I wasn't really planning on seeing Devil Wars product in theaters, but like, yeah, like a girl's night out would love to.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, so glad she did because if I waited to see this at home, I would have been sad.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is that good.
[SPEAKER_03]: See it on a big screen.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was truly like we left.
[SPEAKER_03]: Shook if we could not believe we left just like standing around being like, that's how you make a movie like this.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's how you make a movie like this.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was excellent.
[SPEAKER_03]: I couldn't believe like the plot was perfect.
[SPEAKER_03]: I I didn't know what they were gonna do.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have so little faith in sequels these days and I'm really blown away by how good it was I will 100% watch it again, especially on an airplane great airplane movie.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was it hit all the marks and exceeded multiple
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, we also be like seeing a movie in LA is so fun because we saw it at the growth and there was a row of people behind us who were definitely like, they were something.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if they were like fashion people.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought maybe they had a friend in the movie, but they were kind of like hooting and hollering, but everything that they said.
[SPEAKER_03]: was what we were thinking.
[SPEAKER_03]: There was this one scene, the fashion for the most part, exceptional.
[SPEAKER_03]: There was one scene where she came out in a dress, and again, my friends that are seeing there are, and our brains are going, as the role behind us, the whole layer, like, truly, I, I leaned over her back and during it, and I was like, this is so immersive that I feel like I'm at the sphere.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like it was so nice to hear what I was feeling, just to be like, yeah, I feel seen they completely group of us.
[SPEAKER_03]: The people behind us were like, no, wrong dress, like just immediately yelled it and it was so fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then after the movie we saw them just walking through the grove and they were so cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: So stylish.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think one of them had like pinkish hair and just like really fashion forward outfits.
[SPEAKER_03]: They were just so cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a group of friends.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was like four or five of them.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was really nice.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was really nice to have like surround sound and just be completely validated in my thoughts about the film.
[SPEAKER_03]: but that's that it did make me a little sad.
[SPEAKER_03]: It made me a little wistful for the the alternate path of life that I was kind of supposed to follow.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, remember, I'm not supposed to be here.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not supposed to be here talking about theme parks.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm supposed to be in herst tower working underpaid at a magazine trying to like get free lipstick out of the beauty closet.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like that's the path that I worked for for a long time.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's not that I veered this way like that path
[SPEAKER_03]: It dissolved like it doesn't exist anymore.
[SPEAKER_03]: I didn't want to end on a sad note, but it was good.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I also And he has like a really good like messenger bag like a warning.
[SPEAKER_03]: Look at I'm a journalist messenger bag and ooh Again, I you won't want to buy everything she's wearing at the end of the movie.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is really good For book club, I am reading or I'm listening to the audiobook of Elena Dunham's Lena Lena Lena Dunham's memoir
[SPEAKER_03]: It is so good, it is so good, it's really, really interesting to view the opposite side of the experience that she was having, because so much, she was so perceived by the public, everything that happened during girls, I'm almost done with it, so I'm not, I'm just past girls right now, but that entire time like I was in New York, I was very online, like I'm very familiar, I'm intimately familiar with,
[SPEAKER_03]: Every season of girls coming out and like what it felt like to be in the city when that was happening and to hear all of it from her perspective and everything that was happening behind the scenes When she is such an excellent writer was so fantastic.
[SPEAKER_03]: I highly recommend listening to it.
[SPEAKER_03]: She's reading it aloud and her talking about this stuff in her own voice.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think really
[SPEAKER_03]: gives it a gravity that I don't know if reading the actual book would have blended.
[SPEAKER_03]: I tend to prefer reading to an audiobook, an audiobook I struggle with following, and this, this just feels like you're at a book signing, and she's reading a passage, but it's the entire book.
[SPEAKER_03]: I cannot, like, I cannot recommend it enough.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's so interesting, and it really runs in parallel with the Delaware's Protestant stuff I was talking about.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like back then, there was this like explosion of internet, and like if you were a young
[SPEAKER_03]: You could basically get anything done, like I remember I, I was taking agent meetings in a way off of my tumblr, like it was a wild time and to hear someone who is in the thick of it, any eye of the storm talk about it is really interesting.
[SPEAKER_03]: And my main takeaway from all of that, instead of like sitting around being sad that,
[SPEAKER_03]: What, like, I mean, a dear friend of mine got laid off from glamour, which has really upset me just because she's the hardest working reporter, I think I know and she does not deserve to lose her job, like all of it is kind of a bummer, but I'm really just trying to trust the timing because
[SPEAKER_03]: Like it wouldn't be doing all of this and it's just really nice like you have to think like it's not it's not what are the other like these things happen.
[SPEAKER_03]: They weave in between each other and so we had that and now we have this and this is great because I can't imagine a life without joffries and hugs from goofy and I'm very happy about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: But to say I'm trusting the timing is also that I was recently invited on a work trip that would have been would have made for an incredible podcast episode, really great trip planning guides, which I liked with together.
[SPEAKER_03]: It would have been excellent in the timing didn't work out, and I keep trying to tell myself the timing.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's all about timing.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I do think that is true.
[SPEAKER_03]: I do think that proves true at the end of the day that it's all about timing.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was talking to my husband about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like, it's like, you know, it stinks that publishing just disappeared.
[SPEAKER_03]: And he's like, you wouldn't have been miserable.
[SPEAKER_03]: That was like, no, I wouldn't.
[SPEAKER_03]: And he's like, yeah, you'd be sitting at a desk.
[SPEAKER_03]: You'd never get promoted.
[SPEAKER_03]: You'd be really annoyed about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: You'd be working very long hours or very little pay.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, oh, he's right.
[SPEAKER_03]: He's right.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I appreciate his perspective often.
[SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, you just got to trust in the timing.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then everything works out.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's going to be okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: I wasn't going to talk about this whole rant about how I'm
[SPEAKER_03]: Not really buying stuff right now, but I don't really want, I don't really want to.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't really want to.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think I'm gonna put a pin in it and talk about it next month, because I, long story short, I got rid of a lot of stuff in my closet, and it has really changed the way I get dressed, because I did finally reach that near Utopia where everything you grab is something you like.
[SPEAKER_03]: And while I don't understand proportion and fit and sometimes have to put on a few different pairs of pants to see if it works with the shirt, like I have to guess and check,
[SPEAKER_03]: Balance and size and all that type of stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: I do get dressed much more easily now because I don't have there's no nothing's gumming up the works.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, there's no like I go to get pants.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have six pairs of pants like there's no there's no pants there that I don't fit in or I don't wear like there's just pants
[SPEAKER_03]: And some of them are not right for, you know, school drop off, but like there's just pants and I could wear all of them if I wanted to and it's nice.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's nice to have stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know I'm not someone who when I because I am of the belief that you're and we're just going to touch on the weights of very quickly your weight will fluctuate throughout your life.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I since I've been 20, I don't get rid of something because it's smaller big.
[SPEAKER_03]: That is, I get rid of something if I don't like it, if it's uncomfortable, if I put it on, and it just makes me feel blocked.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like the emotional response is what I purge based on, not based on size.
[SPEAKER_03]: If it's too small, I put it in in two small box, and if it's too big, I put it in in two big box.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't get rid of stuff based on size because you, your weight will fluctuate, your health will fluctuate.
[SPEAKER_03]: The pregnancy, et cetera, a man, like all of that, you never know.
[SPEAKER_03]: And so I don't get rid of anything I love, but I got rid of things I didn't love.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it was very freeing.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was very freeing.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't, I don't feel like I'm equipped today to discuss about, we're going to talk about it in the future.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I have a lot of thoughts on link culture, on consumerism at the moment.
[SPEAKER_03]: I did by something on my laptop before you recorded this.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I feel like that was a worthy investment.
[SPEAKER_03]: As you know, I love my little vintage, Ralph Lauren, buttoned on shirt that I got for like seven bucks.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was wearing it today.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's an act, I bought it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's an extra extra large.
[SPEAKER_03]: I bought it when you were at an anti-fuel visiting Hollywood.
[SPEAKER_03]: and it is quite big, it is a little too big, and I was like, would love a smaller one in orange.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's something I don't own.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is used, it is well made, it is cotton, like there's a lot of reasons on the pro column.
[SPEAKER_03]: The con column is like, I already have the red one, and I already have that pink shirt.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I figured I wear them enough, I can buy one more.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can maybe get one more, and it's no, it's not wasteful, it's used, it's nice materials, and so I bought an orange,
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think it's going to fit.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's going to be really cute.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I know I can't be up here spouting about consumerism when I'm actively buying things.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I do think, okay, I'm going to touch on it a tiny bit, just a tiny bit.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's this thing that I feel like my brain cracked open a bit when I got rid of a lot of stuff in my closet.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just sat down one day and was like, be so for real.
[SPEAKER_03]: These workout leggings have made you feel uncomfortable for eight years.
[SPEAKER_03]: Why are they still in the drawer under the stuff you actually wear every week just leggings like don't fit right or too short like I didn't need them.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't need to say like it's over and that has helped so much, but I also think buying things with a different eye has also been helpful.
[SPEAKER_03]: I do believe that, like, you don't know if something's going to be forever in your work or not, like you just kind of have to try it, you have to love it enough to be willing to try it and understand the process, but I did notice that I was really leaning towards buying things that I felt like would feel, would like fill a void I didn't need.
[SPEAKER_03]: Not an emotional one, but in the sense that there was this pink sequined Zora skirt that came up on my feed that someone was wearing and I was like I love that I need that that's perfect to wear in a night out that would be great for dressing up and it's like I didn't I don't go I don't dress up like I don't dress up I realize mentally when I'm getting dressed to go out at night I'm not thinking of what do I want to wear I'm always thinking what should I wear what should I wear to drop off what should I wear to lunch with friends I
[SPEAKER_03]: what should I wear to dinner out?
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm never thinking like, oh, this is what I want to wear.
[SPEAKER_03]: I will feel good in this.
[SPEAKER_03]: And sometimes that's more casual than dressy.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes that's more dressy than casual.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I've worn dressy outfits to drop off.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I've worn very casual outfits, possibly problematicly so going out to dinner.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I have just felt so much better.
[SPEAKER_03]: I felt so much better when I just wear what I want without thinking about what I should want.
[SPEAKER_03]: And extending that to purchases has really been huge for me.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot of stuff where I'm like, oh, I, I feel like, oh, I should get that like that would be a great choice.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love and it's stuff that I really want to buy.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it's stuff where I'm like putting on a version of me when I could just authentically be me in the jeans I like and in the gigantic Ralph Orange shirt that I got that I like and just be comfy and happy and kind of it's so tricky to discern between the two.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're so similar, but
[SPEAKER_03]: It really has changed things and I'm going to keep, we're going to talk about it in the future and we're going to keep going back to it.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I know I said earlier in the show, I was going to talk about consumerism stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're going to skip that.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I really, I'm trying to like pull that thread figuratively not literally.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want my clothes to stay nice.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I really want to kind of chip away at that and see what that means because it, I usually would get like, like, oh, I have to go to dinner.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, oh, I have to, I have to like pretend to be someone else.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's like, no.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know everyone else is wearing these cutie little outfits and I don't know where they're getting them.
[SPEAKER_03]: Everyone has like separate that are so cute.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't find, I just want bad, my kingdom for a pair of patterned baggy pants like where in an airplane.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't find them.
[SPEAKER_03]: I will sun to one day, I keep sending myself email reminders and ignoring them.
[SPEAKER_03]: But like wearing just what I feel like wearing in that exact moment is like true harmony and bliss for me and I'm just gonna follow that more and it's more helpful to do that when I'm not introducing new garments and do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: But we're going to last in real quick because it's going to be a long one tireless pursuit of feeling good all the time.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not feeling great lately and I want to be open about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like my men aren't working.
[SPEAKER_03]: I take out our all occasionally.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm taking it more lately than before and I do feel like there is this compression happening in my head where I have to balance so many things now that I have like
[SPEAKER_03]: You just the added responsibility is being apparent.
[SPEAKER_03]: It just feels very overwhelming and for a while it was real Things were going okay things were going really great and this past week things have not been going great and I'm gonna explore that more, but I just feel like I feel very off.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel very Unfocused in a way that I don't know why little tasks like
[SPEAKER_03]: Printing out a shipping label and putting it on a box and making sure the box is in the car so that I drop the stuff off on the way home on like when I'm driving past the post office that took like hours it took like hours for me to do basic tasks and I was feeling really really really bad about it until
[SPEAKER_03]: I woke up the other day and was like, oh, I know I am overwhelmed because there's no there's no baseline of me like the baseline when you're a parent is someone else's responsibilities and once they're met then you can start to think about yourself.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's like, oh, it's not me.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just the situation that we're in when you have to full-time care for someone.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, that's all it is.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's the fact that I will wake up at seven and I will get ready.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like, I was like, ready to go at seven, 15.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I knew, I was like, I'm not gonna be, I'm ready to go, I'm ready to start work and I will not be able to start work for over two hours.
[SPEAKER_03]: And that's how I feel.
[SPEAKER_03]: I had to drive to school, I had to drop off and run there and like I wasn't in control of my time.
[SPEAKER_03]: And like now that I know that I feel a little less sorely about it, but I am, and I know it's in the past, I am, there's some stuff I really really need to get down this week, and I better get it done.
[SPEAKER_03]: I better get it done because I think it'll really free a burden, closing those loops can help a lot.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's really great.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I also this week did find myself in a whole food.
[SPEAKER_03]: to like two hours after preschool drop off being like how am I here like I was basically they had a sale data 33% off sale on like body items and so I was like comparing ingredient lists and locians that I didn't need and was like what am I doing here um and then I took my medicine everything was fine so
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, that's just what it is, that's just what it is.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, we, we gotta go and I literally have to go.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have a lunch date with my college roommates, which is very exciting.
[SPEAKER_03]: They both usually have crazy, crazy, like 14 hour day jobs, but they both had babies, so they're both available during the day.
[SPEAKER_03]: So if they wanna go to lunch, I'm running there.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I literally maybe running there because I am running late.
[SPEAKER_03]: Very quickly, I wanted to stuff I'm currently obsessed with and I know that the back have this episode wasn't as it was a little shorter because we had so much Disney stuff but we'll cover the rest of the next month.
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't worry, I'm very good at outlines.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm very good at lines.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, stuff I'm currently obsessed with, I am finishing bones, which was so I completely, I could keep like gasping allowed at the episodes and my husband's like, haven't you seen this?
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, I don't, there's 12 seasons.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't remember what happens to Hodgins in season 11.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I mean?
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, I am very invested in who Amy Poler has on her podcast every Tuesday.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like when I remember it's Tuesday, a light, in a little cartoon like Bob goes off in my brain and I'm like, oh,
[SPEAKER_03]: Who's my new friend?
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to hear from this week that podcast is just so cheerful and joyful I want to really enjoy it.
[SPEAKER_03]: As you know, the new Noah album is very good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I recommend the extended version Stakes so great song or bigger great song also really nice to live with someone that you can yell at and be like Why isn't it on the album, but also I'm not in charge of anything.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just listen to it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's really great
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, the last thing I want to talk about is Widows Bay.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you were not watching Widows Bay on Apple, Apple TV Plus Apple Plus Apple TV, whatever it's called you got to be watching Widows Bay.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is like
[SPEAKER_03]: It is like the Haunted Mansion of TV shows.
[SPEAKER_03]: I swear, oh my god, wait!
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, so what?
[SPEAKER_03]: Wait, wait, so I love it because it's Katie Dippold, who I think is just an incredible writer, so talented.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I forgot Katie Dippold wrote the script for the Haunted Mansion movie.
[SPEAKER_03]: And this is like this has this spooky Haunted feel, but it's so good, it's so good, and I don't even wanna spoil it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's so good because
[SPEAKER_03]: It reads like a drama and you know, I'm not watching a drama.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not watching.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I'll watch literally.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll watch like Katie dip old like stamp and like envelopes for thinking notes, but I'm not usually watching a drama, but the comedy woven throughout this is so.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't even know what to call like quiet comedy.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just like, it's a barrel of laughs, but it's the type of thing where they'll cut to something on paper, and it'll be like, that's the joke.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like something that's written down.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not overly funny, and yet it is freaking hilarious, and also scary, and also dramatic.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's someone called it,
[SPEAKER_03]: like Twin Peaksian, which I agree with, but it's so fun and I love it so much and this has to happen a while, not really since like severance, before that maybe one division where I put it in the calendar, like it's in the calendar that like this is the night it comes out because I need to see it the moment it comes out.
[SPEAKER_03]: I highly, highly recommend.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I should go in like, you go, um, this was fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope all is well with you guys.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am excited to bring you some Disney world stories and a lot of it in her view.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't wait, and I will talk to you soon.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, happy Gapses.
[UNKNOWN]: Bye.
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, Carly.
[SPEAKER_01]: I had a question about universal studios in Orlando, so my partner and I are going in October and I'm very excited on our big, big thing that we're going to get to do is go to epic.
[SPEAKER_01]: I cannot wait.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've been to universal a couple times before, spend a while since I've been there, definitely
[SPEAKER_01]: And I don't really know the food scene.
[SPEAKER_01]: I universal, like Disney, I know, while a highlighter, what the good snack are, where to find those things.
[SPEAKER_01]: But you're a personal, everything that I have gone, I feel just like, oh, no way each year.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I always just ended up eating at like three, three, three, six, which is fine.
[SPEAKER_01]: But I was wondering if you had some gems or something.
[SPEAKER_01]: I have had to create an exam and it was so much fun, but anything that you think would be kind of under the radar pick, especially at Epic, if you've been able to go to any of the restaurants, you're done in a quick service, like what you know, what you like, let me know.
[SPEAKER_01]: Also, should we go to Hollywood or tonight's, I am a scaredy baby.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm also neurodivered and I'm afraid of getting extremely overstimulated and having a small crash out in the middle of your research studio, but I'm basically interested, especially if they have like a good IP house, like do I want to go?
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me know.
[SPEAKER_01]: I appreciate you.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I love your podcast and your great.
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Bye.
[SPEAKER_03]: Incredible call.
[SPEAKER_03]: We haven't gotten universal calls in a minute.
[SPEAKER_03]: Specifically about food.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think I've answered a question about food in years.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I am so delighted to be able to help you on this journey.
[SPEAKER_03]: And we'll mention at the start, my outlook on theme park food has changed over time as I become a mature young woman, and simply cannot digest some of these trendy foods while out in the blistering heat.
[SPEAKER_03]: I do have a somewhat outdated eater map that I will put in the show notes, which is like my professional recommendation of what to eat, but I'm going to break down all of the parks except for volcano bay.
[SPEAKER_03]: because I haven't been there a long time.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to write down all of the parks for you so that you have kind of a hit list of everywhere I think you should go.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am almost always eating at a Harry Potter dining establishment when I'm at Universal Park on either coasts because I do think that they have the best food options in the park.
[SPEAKER_03]: Granted, JK Rowling is a literal trash person, but unfortunately the IP she created has yielded the best culinary options generally speaking.
[SPEAKER_03]: I, you guys know I grapple with the Harry Potter of it all, and I, I do my best to donate like,
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, this, I offset money, basically, if I talk about Harry Potter, if I spend money in wizarding world, I try to offset it by donating to causes because my job is inexplicably, inexplicably tied to them.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am at Universal Parks for Work.
[SPEAKER_03]: I will always be at Universal Parks for Work and I can't, I really can't just be like, I'm not going in that land as much as I am tempted to do that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Please keep that in mind whenever I mention them.
[SPEAKER_03]: There is that happening on the back end, but also they are when it comes like protein-forward healthy-ish, high-quality food, it is, I mean, especially universal studio Hollywood, the go-to, but also a really, really great option in Florida.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm going to give you the rundown of basically everywhere you should check out in each of the parks and where I usually end up.
[SPEAKER_03]: At universal studio, Florida,
[SPEAKER_03]: Minion Cafe, shockingly robust menu.
[SPEAKER_03]: Extremely pleased with the food that I ate there.
[SPEAKER_03]: And there are more options than you would ever expect from something called Minion Cafe.
[SPEAKER_03]: You would expect a grilled cheese period.
[SPEAKER_03]: No dude, they have, look at the menu.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not even going to spoil it if you look at it and you might crack a lot loud.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is truly a more robust menu than most restaurants.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's amazing.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm also going to shout out that today's show cafe.
[SPEAKER_03]: We laugh at the name, a week giggle at the concept, but the truth is, they have a lot of really reliable sandwiches and salads, which sometimes I just need normal food.
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't forget they do have a shrek pretzel at this park, but I'm pretty sure, TMI, it plugs out my digestive tract for days, but if you can handle it, I recommend the shrek pretzel, and while J.K. Rowling, again, scum of this earth,
[SPEAKER_03]: I will add that the ice cream at Florian Fortescus inside Wizarding World is some of my favorite on earth and every time I spend money in one of her lands, again, I donate to a worthy cost.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I feel like a trans angel gets closer to their surgical GoFundMe goal.
[SPEAKER_03]: I get ice cream and at the same time we stick it to JK and Routling.
[SPEAKER_03]: To me, that's a win and that ice cream is so freaking good.
[SPEAKER_03]: The soft serve is good, but you've got to get the hard packs skipped.
[SPEAKER_03]: We've got to get the scoops.
[SPEAKER_03]: Get as many scoops as you can get, like get two scoops, get toppings, like really blow it out.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's so good and melts so quickly because of Florida, but ooh, it is good.
[SPEAKER_03]: There are other places to eat at this park, and at the other parks I'm going to mention, but honestly, this is where I go, and if we were going to park together, this is where I would lead you towards.
[SPEAKER_03]: Over at Islands of Adventure, news recently broke that mythos is closing, so you got to get your tuition there before it becomes yesterland material.
[SPEAKER_03]: You got to see firsthand what it's about.
[SPEAKER_03]: So good restaurant!
[SPEAKER_03]: It's a good restaurant in the bargain and sad that it's going away.
[SPEAKER_03]: I also want to call out Circus McGurkey's Cafe Stupendus, not just because I wanted to see that out loud and see if I could, but they have a bunch of funky, fun dishes that are worth peeping.
[SPEAKER_03]: And at Epic University, I...
[SPEAKER_03]: I really don't, I really don't use that park.
[SPEAKER_03]: I get, no, I'm like, oh, that's, yeah, that was, I've made a little outline of like the restaurants that I recommend, yeah, it's that bad and wizarding world.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yep, that's about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: But over an epic universe, the food is generally much better.
[SPEAKER_03]: I actually don't even think you can go
[SPEAKER_03]: wrong here to be honest, there's that many solid options, but I've really enjoyed more sit-down restaurants while I've been here, which is really reliable for when it's hot out or it rains midday or you're spending the entire day at the park because there's no proper nighttime entertainment, so doing a reservation towards the end of the night doesn't mean you're going to miss anything and actually is like a nice way to sit and refuel before you head out.
[SPEAKER_03]: I really liked the blue dragon.
[SPEAKER_03]: Again, I sit down and wait or service restaurant with a big menu and tons to choose from.
[SPEAKER_03]: I like some dishes better than others.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sure in the Korean Royal episode, I think that's where I discussed that.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's also a quick service French restaurant in Wizarding World of Harry Potter, which has Cafe Lair de la Serine.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope I said that.
[SPEAKER_03]: The correct way.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is very beautiful inside.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_03]: Chicken Rowling is the devil, but this is a traditional French bistro design, so she deserves a zero of that praise.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have eaten at the elegant proper sit-down restaurant Atlantic with a dear friend.
[SPEAKER_03]: My dear friend, Jeffrey, you all know who Jeffrey is.
[SPEAKER_03]: He's a Loki podcast mascot, he comes up all the time.
[SPEAKER_03]: The reason I just stumbled on my words is because it's called Atlantic, but in my bones, I feel like it should have a different name.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel it could be called like scales, like it should just have some weird 80s aquatic name and when I'm like Atlantic, like no, it shouldn't be called Atlantic.
[SPEAKER_03]: It needs a better name.
[SPEAKER_03]: It needs something else, like oh shhh panic.
[SPEAKER_03]: It needs something more magical.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's, I don't like the name, I don't like the name.
[SPEAKER_03]: Anyway,
[SPEAKER_03]: I went there with Jeffrey, which was lovely, but if I was going back to Epic Universe, I would probably return to Blue Dragon before I'd go back there, just because the best comp I can give you is like, if I was on a longer trip and I came back for a dinner, like you might do at AppCon, I would go here, but I would not, this is like an, I don't know, I knew this place is like a little nicer, a little shaker.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if I would want to roll in here in like a crop top in Gene shorts at the end of a day where I've been sweating through my clothes.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like I just, I would want that to be more of a
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, what I am viewing the restaurant as because we had a very, very lovely meal there, and I did like dress a little nice for it because it was special night out, uh, beyond those.
[SPEAKER_03]: So those are like the restaurants I would eat at.
[SPEAKER_03]: There are a lot of cult favorite spots here among theme park fans.
[SPEAKER_03]: Pizza moon for pizza.
[SPEAKER_03]: People are obsessed with.
[SPEAKER_03]: I had it there.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was also good.
[SPEAKER_03]: They have these bready cones stuffed with things, and I live Burke again, something I can't eat would destroy me, but they look delicious.
[SPEAKER_03]: Starshoe bow.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that's the name of it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's the kiosk that's outside.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like in celestial park kind of it's I think it's outside.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love work.
[SPEAKER_03]: That kiosk has basically a hot dog that is inside chewy rice cakes with cheese.
[SPEAKER_03]: Literally my GI tract which is that I could eat this if my stomach fixes itself.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am be lining to eat this because I've seen everybody eat it and I love rice cake.
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, it's cake and a hot dog and cheese.
[SPEAKER_03]: It sounds so good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Everyone I know unilaterally, universally, universally, has said it is amazing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Try that and report back because I can't eat it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm really sad about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Burning Blade has these little bready cheese balls which rock, I popped so many of those in when I was in that media event that I gave myself a tummy ache because I think I ate like a serving in a half.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're not supposed to eat like nine cheese balls in one sitting when you're extremely dehydrated, but I did and I have in the regrets.
[SPEAKER_03]: Toadstool Cafe is pretty reliable.
[SPEAKER_03]: My brain views that as an LA establishment.
[SPEAKER_03]: I probably wouldn't eat there because we haven't here, but again, Toadstool Cafe, great stuff, very fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: They have the mushroom soup there, get that.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Also, I'm recommending soup in Florida, I know that's a mistake.
[SPEAKER_03]: But there's truly so many options that this park you kind of can't go wrong.
[SPEAKER_03]: Epic universe is a park to eat at more than the other one.
[SPEAKER_03]: So definitely just keep that in mind.
[SPEAKER_03]: As for Halloween Horror Nights.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're talking to us.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're talking scared to get scared to cat.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're both people who are scared of this stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm coming at it as someone who's like, oh, Lord, it's Halloween Horror Night season.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm terrified.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm coming at it from that angle to tell you, that I think you should do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think if you're curious enough where you set it out loud, I think the seed has been planted in your mind.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think if you're a theme park person, you kind of got to see what this is all about.
[SPEAKER_03]: The artistry of it is amazing.
[SPEAKER_03]: And while it is extremely scary at times,
[SPEAKER_03]: I think just knowing what it is is worthwhile, especially if you're already gonna be there if that is part of this trip.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, something that will help is that if you're a partner, assuming that you're a partner, would go to this event with you.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're a partner, someone that you can lean on, like little physically lean on them, hide behind them, if you're going through a house, like if they can usher you through, if they can like take the scare, take the blow in the front of the scare, then I think you're pretty...
[SPEAKER_03]: good.
[SPEAKER_03]: But the truth is you won't know if you like Halloween Hornites or not until you do it, and so I just think you should do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: My advice to you is to bring the best earplugs you can find maybe even sunglasses do like it's a lot.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's a lot and it's intense and it's frightening, but if you are curious, it might be worth seeing it just once even if you go in and you know that like you'd burn the money if you leave immediately, I think just seeing it and knowing what it is
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope this helps, um, let me know if you're brave.
[SPEAKER_03]: Halloween horror nights, again, scary, scary, I think it's scary in Orlando, then it is in Hollywood, but it is something that, you know, it's nice to know what that thing everyone's talking about all the time is.
[SPEAKER_03]: Even if I did spend, um, the entire time of the house is literally crouched and hiding behind different friends who are obsessed with this stuff and let me just be their shadow.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope that helps, um, have so much fun in your trip.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm so excited for you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, thank you all so much for listening to this gab session episode and oh my gosh I can't believe I'm a Disney world right now.
