[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, we're welcome to very amusing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Your one-stop shop for the story sequence and shenanigans of a popcorn fueled theme park journalist.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm currently myself and we are full on shenanigans today because I got to be real with you.
[SPEAKER_01]: We had a plan for this week's episode.
[SPEAKER_01]: As we know, I'm away.
[SPEAKER_01]: I was supposed to do three weeks of no new episodes.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I thought if my favorite podcasts did that, I would have a full connection.
[SPEAKER_01]: So we were planning three episodes.
[SPEAKER_01]: We did Disneyland Guide.
[SPEAKER_01]: We did our fantastic Milwaukee episode if I basically saw myself.
[SPEAKER_01]: I could be happy about that museum for the rest of my life.
[SPEAKER_01]: I haven't even shown you the other videos from the inside that museum yet.
[SPEAKER_01]: Y'all gonna lose your mind.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's even like truly a place AI could never create.
[SPEAKER_01]: That is the Milwaukee Public Museum.
[SPEAKER_01]: However, today I was going to do
[SPEAKER_01]: a little Disney World episode, which I think we are going to switch to next week instead, because, hello!
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a absolutely bulkers gym-henson of a weekend, and an opportunity for someone itself that I'd be able to do a crossover kind of episode, having to do with Muppets and Sports, and I grabbed that opportunity.
[SPEAKER_01]: Which means that we essentially scrapped all of our plans, and I had now recording an intro, while I am getting dressed to go do a podcast interview.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I had plans on the books with incredible reporter, sports genius, truly like, pop culture,ficionado, Madeline Hill.
[SPEAKER_01]: My friend, Madeline.
[SPEAKER_01]: She is the co-host of Sports Class at the podcast.
[SPEAKER_01]: She works for the athletic, which is New York Times.
[SPEAKER_01]: She's living in the New York Times sports, journalists, essentially, and we're gonna be happy to have all of them up into this week.
[SPEAKER_01]: We happen to have plans on the books for the day after the World Cup.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, everything has fallen into place.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know how.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was texting with her yesterday being like, maybe just recorded a podcast at our coffee shop date.
[SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, one thousand percent, yes.
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's what's happening this week.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because listen, nobody could have predicted the thing, but it's.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to be at the world cup and not just like electric me in themselves that makes sense and it doesn't make any sense we're going to get into it like it was on Fox.
[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't make any sense.
[SPEAKER_01]: Much of me in at least like you know they're like they're in a new coaster.
[SPEAKER_01]: There's at least a little bit of a newsworthy story there.
[SPEAKER_01]: What in the heck were climate-freeking frog and they speak you doing there?
[SPEAKER_01]: It also look out.
[SPEAKER_01]: And also Elmo, and also Cookie Monster, and also Elmo and Cookie Monster, showed up in the Noah Con show, which man and I were both at, we are getting into it this week.
[SPEAKER_01]: But if this episode sounds a little elucing-goosey, the audio was a little difference because we are literally recording it on location in New York City.
[SPEAKER_01]: I am shopping moisture as I'm on my face, and I'm going to meet up with her in exactly 25 minutes.
[SPEAKER_01]: So enjoy, listen to this life, throws you a mop with a cup of tea, curveball, and you just got to take it.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll see you on the other side!
[SPEAKER_01]: Hi, Madeline.
[SPEAKER_01]: Hi, Carly.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, to set this in, we are at Bar Piecellino, widely known as having the worst service in all of New York City, and yet I cannot stop coming here in the West Village.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we had a plant coffee day, we did catch up, knowing that you are the number one sports reporter.
[SPEAKER_01]: in my world you are number one oh stop I mean you know everything about compress flowers you know everything about I don't know who jail in front and is but you sure do and I know who's wife is I apparently in that's what's important she's from the same place I'm from what yes she is she's like a suburban Chicago lady why I know I knew you're from chic okay wait yes it's all coming full so no it's very exciting well I'm in a single full circle so the reason you work here in that the episode of doing this week is pushed to a future date is because the world cup yesterday really was the then diagram of
[SPEAKER_00]: It couldn't have been more of an intersection of our interests.
[SPEAKER_00]: I did point right past during the broadcast.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I know that it was so.
[SPEAKER_01]: The way in which I knew, I knew nothing of what was happening beyond the muppets and you knew everything.
[SPEAKER_01]: Together, it was our event for us.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it was only us and us alone.
[SPEAKER_00]: We were the target audience for a woke up.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Not the billions of people who are
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean like the Spain or casino great for them it was not for them.
[SPEAKER_01]: It was for me.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, it was for me.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah So explain to me because this is the first time there's been a half-time show What what's happening there?
[SPEAKER_00]: Why you know that's a great question It feels like it's the American influence on the world cup and I don't know who at FIFA was like We're gonna do this maybe they just loved the Super Bowl half-time show and FIFA was like we need to top this by having a compilation concert
[SPEAKER_00]: acoustic muppets which we'll get to.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know exactly who had a fee but thought it was a good idea.
[SPEAKER_00]: I wasn't not into it.
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, it has never happened before and it clearly felt like a play to attract new types of soccer fans, specifically American sports fans who are used to a halftime performance at major sporting events in America.
[SPEAKER_00]: that they're like, this will get him to stick around.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I gotta tell you, it sure did.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yes it did.
[SPEAKER_01]: It sure did because I'm realizing that now I was like an older, my favorite type of experience is one that I know and I could not create.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_01]: And there, Claude could never have put the count and Shakira in a sporting arena.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, never, never.
[SPEAKER_00]: Never.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then also Chris Martin from Coldplay slash Coldplay is in the background performing a belief some original song.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if it was for the World Cup or if it was for.
[SPEAKER_00]: But I never saw him on screen.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, he's just in the background.
[SPEAKER_00]: You like point in the background.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're like, why is Chris Martin not in the photo in focus in the shot?
[SPEAKER_00]: He's just in the background.
[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't make sense that animal got about 20 times the screen time.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, no, it doesn't make any Chris Martin.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, it's so little.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, thank you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you so much.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Perfect.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: Decaf was a good choice.
[SPEAKER_00]: That looks nice.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.
[SPEAKER_01]: I just ordered my third coffee today.
[SPEAKER_01]: That should surprise.
[SPEAKER_01]: No button.
[SPEAKER_01]: Your boots on the ground.
[SPEAKER_00]: Having more coffee.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think how much of your bloodstream you think is just coffee.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, if you could give a percentage.
[SPEAKER_00]: 60%.
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like it might like my white blood cells are just dyed brown, yes.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, like a scan.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, they're like the milk when you get a like latte that hasn't been mixed.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, there's like a little bit and then there's brown while it's a little bit.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to do a Disney reference.
[SPEAKER_00]: I must admit as you know, I don't I'm not a Disney expert like you, but it's like personally don't whip.
[SPEAKER_00]: the dough.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, from this is that's a thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's so funny that like your knowledge of dough whip is my knowledge of any sport with a ball.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, dough whip every time I see a dough, like a pearly.
[SPEAKER_00]: The Disney they have those there.
[SPEAKER_01]: And any time I see like a sports person in street clothes.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, oh, she would know.
[SPEAKER_00]: And those cookies from Gideon.
[SPEAKER_00]: Gideon cookies.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's honestly all you need to know.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's all you need to know.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, my God.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, dance your question.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is never happened before, but it really did feel like,
[SPEAKER_00]: FIFA was trying to reach the American audience.
[SPEAKER_00]: I it felt that way, but also still be a global.
[SPEAKER_00]: time show that people around the world would enjoy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you feel like they saw bad bunnies performants at the Super Bowl and they were like, we got to do something that has a lot going on?
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, 100%.
[SPEAKER_00]: They're like, we need every dish.
[SPEAKER_00]: This play has everything.
[SPEAKER_00]: Or this club has everything.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not to go into the bottom.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just in being doing acoustic.
[SPEAKER_00]: Cold play in the background out of focus.
[SPEAKER_00]: A PS-22.
[SPEAKER_00]: Which, by the way, is that that's the kid's choir from
[SPEAKER_00]: Mister B or something he was like a human viral like he would have kids do these performances.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my algorithm is pretty narrow So I have not seen this It really did but I'm wondering like because okay, we are recording this truly on the street on a Monday the world just happened This is coming out Wednesday.
[SPEAKER_01]: We may have more information about how the mob is became part of this side then
[SPEAKER_01]: currently we do not.
[SPEAKER_01]: So like, in your opinion, Madeline is someone who understands sports who has more knowledge of how time shows than I ever will.
[SPEAKER_01]: How do you think this happened?
[SPEAKER_01]: Because the Muppets do not have the same type of booking agents that Madonna and Shakira do.
[SPEAKER_00]: My theory with everything in sports, especially with FIFA, is followed money.
[SPEAKER_00]: Someone, someone with money paid for the Muppets to be there for a reason that we don't even know yet.
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because if you know anything about this World Cup, it was filled with corruption.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not saying the Muppets are corrupt.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, wait, I did not know this.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I mean, ticket, ticket prices, just corruption within FIFA corruption with the refs.
[SPEAKER_00]: People will argue whether the rest were corrupt or not and ruling.
[SPEAKER_00]: calls in favors of certain teen Argentina, there was a lot of that throughout this entire world cup, so there's just a lot of corruption.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I could be that.
[SPEAKER_00]: I also think, yeah, like anything, it's followed the money.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, why are the mothers there?
[SPEAKER_00]: I tried to look this up as a recording.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, because I was like, why were they there?
[SPEAKER_00]: They are not a fox, property issues.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, they are not.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, they're with my Disney.
[SPEAKER_00]: So then you're like, okay,
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's to me, that's the part that I can't quite figure out.
[SPEAKER_01]: And also, as we discussed before this, Ted Lasso, being an apple-tazzy property, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, did they just, they just wanted an accurate Tableau of America?
[SPEAKER_00]: Which, I mean, listen, could be, could be the case, but I always just assume the evil answer, which is my money.
[SPEAKER_00]: But what's interesting, because you think about the Super Bowl half-time show, which I now, I'll believe is sponsored by Apple Music.
[SPEAKER_00]: that's a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little bit of little bit of a little
[SPEAKER_00]: a quite literally a cast of characters.
[SPEAKER_00]: Literally.
[SPEAKER_00]: A cast of characters that you're like, okay, BTS is in this performance.
[SPEAKER_00]: Isn't it?
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_00]: About to go on tour.
[SPEAKER_00]: Are they trying to sell tour?
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't imagine a hard time selling out Arena is a pretty sure they are notoriously very difficult ticket to get.
[SPEAKER_00]: Why are they there?
[SPEAKER_00]: Madonna just released an album.
[SPEAKER_00]: She's clearly promoting that album But the muppets are dropping in album.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, we're praying.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're dropping a renewal I don't even know if you can call it renewable full season order or something for the muppet show Okay, so but you're right Ted Lasso does have a new season that the trailer debuted at the same day Where's our muppets bit right maybe it's coming out?
[SPEAKER_01]: But also, I mean, we got to talk about the almo, a cookie monster in the room, which is that both Matt and I were at the no-a-contro last night, it's a new field.
[SPEAKER_01]: Also with another sporting arena, and I don't know nothing about people getting like where you're going, and I'm like the one in Queens.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's grassroots.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't, what team is that?
[SPEAKER_01]: The Matt's.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, the traits, because they're all very good.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would not know everything.
[SPEAKER_01]: I know about the meds.
[SPEAKER_01]: I know from Andy Samberg's character in Brooklyn 99 mentioning them.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's all I know.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all you need to know.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I went to the bathroom and there was a I believe a miss miss is met.
[SPEAKER_01]: Is she married?
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know her status.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is their marriage to each other.
[SPEAKER_01]: But there was one on the wall and I thought she was quite adorable.
[SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, we were both at the show last night and the there's this thing that happens at a Noah show where occasionally I think all the time we missed one we thought it was occasionally and I think we were just in the bathroom.
[SPEAKER_01]: But he'd be like call someone and sometimes someone answers
[SPEAKER_01]: yeah um last night ring ring picked up the phone it was cookie monster and it was elbow and they had just appeared at the world cup that day so it was double duty sassamy street at huge half of events right but why because sassamy street they're not promoting anything no except for they're just chilling on their street well maybe they are promoting something and we don't even know it's not saying it to me and always feels like that there is something that is going to come out about that
[SPEAKER_00]: like interest to some project that has not been released.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I thought about not to go back to the World Cup, but the mispique of it all.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_00]: There isn't Jennifer Lawrence and Emma stone producing or star and or starring in some untitled misfigured project.
[SPEAKER_00]: The supposedly.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean like the actors were commented on it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, Jennifer Lawrence.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_01]: And there also is the bit, so on the Muppets end, which people, most people listening to this know, but the electric mayhem are the stars of a roller coaster that reopened a few weeks ago at Disney World, and also we're all waiting on the Muppets Show Order, which may were may not be announced at D23 in Middle August, which is a few weeks away.
[SPEAKER_01]: However, there are some signs leading to it possibly not being announced, because they counter
[SPEAKER_01]: a Muppets panel at a different location at the convention center during the entertainment panel where this would be revealed.
[SPEAKER_00]: So if they were going to make big Muppets news, they probably wouldn't stalk a room full of Muppets fans down the road.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no, no, I don't think they would do that.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm not really sure.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not really sure what the throughline is for Muppets.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, in your expert opinion, like we are all coming, a lot of us are coming to this, being like, we love Muppets, how delightful to see them on screen.
[SPEAKER_01]: for someone whose brain is not consumed by puppets most of the day what was your genuine reaction to being you know watching a sporting event something that is your real house yeah and then these dudes just showing up here's what i'll say well as a sports gossip expert i was all for it i was definitely shocked they were not on my bingo card of
[SPEAKER_00]: surprise appearances during the halftime show.
[SPEAKER_00]: However, I think also my brain is cooked because of course I first went to, but after being shocked and thinking of you, I then went to, well, why are they here?
[SPEAKER_00]: What sort of natural incentive does some stakeholder have that has a connection to FIFA that put them up?
[SPEAKER_00]: It's in this performance with Coldplay.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, it's Coldplay doing some collab with it's like,
[SPEAKER_01]: And then there's the group, there's the global citizen bit of it, which is very ambiguous.
[SPEAKER_01]: Not like a brand kind of.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, they're like a not a global nonprofit that just concerts, I think.
[SPEAKER_01]: But like really respects all of Jim Henson's creation.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, right.
[SPEAKER_00]: So again, it's not quite clear.
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, I, as a cooked brain sports gossip loses, I was like, well, what, who has a financial tie to the Muppet?
[SPEAKER_00]: Interesting.
[SPEAKER_00]: Push for him to be in his performance.
[SPEAKER_00]: Or maybe there's just someone.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it could just be the simplest answer.
[SPEAKER_00]: There's some, whoever runs talent, partnership, for FIFA just loves the Muppets.
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's like, we want them, so we're going to get them.
[SPEAKER_00]: Which we love, which is going to be true.
[SPEAKER_01]: The thing about Muppet fandom, if you're not aware, if your Twitter algorithm is not as tight as mine is, is that we believe the Muppets could be in anything.
[SPEAKER_01]: right.
[SPEAKER_01]: They could be in any movie.
[SPEAKER_01]: I could be in any show.
[SPEAKER_01]: They could be anywhere.
[SPEAKER_01]: So to us, we're like they could be in a half-time show and they clearly did a fantastic job.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, they were unbelievable.
[SPEAKER_01]: In this sporting realm, is there anywhere you think muppets would fit nicely?
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, well, I would love to see a crossover with some muppets at a neurofibrety, the WMB-18.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's Ellie The Elephant.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I love her familiar.
[SPEAKER_01]: I am vaguely the Elephant.
[SPEAKER_01]: Ellie The Elephant.
[SPEAKER_00]: She is an unbelievable mascot, representative for women's basketball and general, but also sports in general.
[SPEAKER_00]: I would love to see some sort of Muppets collab with the Elephant specific, because she is so much personality and obviously so to the Muppets that I feel like they would get along well.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're right.
[SPEAKER_01]: And as, um, I mean, we had coffee for like two hours before this.
[SPEAKER_01]: So if I say, as we mentioned before, you didn't miss anything.
[SPEAKER_01]: It was just us living our lives.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, as we discussed, like there's Elmo and Cookie Monster were everywhere yesterday.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, they are like, they're also New York residents.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, they are.
[SPEAKER_00]: So it feels like there would be a little like Sesame Street, Ellie crossover.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like it's only a matter of time.
[SPEAKER_00]: Either Ellie's going to Sesame Street or Sesame Street's coming out.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, if Sesame Street can like come to Tom Cruise, that's what I'm saying.
[SPEAKER_01]: Tom Cruise also promoting Digger.
[SPEAKER_00]: I just am always like there.
[SPEAKER_00]: Why?
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like I'm the person who's supposed to be writing the investigative journalism piece, which I kind of might be, but it's not going to be out yet.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I feel like even if we're in a world where possibly Disney paid for this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: For us, that's a win because it shows the payoff was worth it, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Muppets were trending worldwide, I think.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, and everyone's writing them out of you, like, where are the Muppets here and every article goes, we don't know.
[SPEAKER_01]: We don't, and like, they got us talking about them up at the end.
[SPEAKER_00]: And this is like, everyone, you're going to find out, too.
[SPEAKER_01]: It was maybe the best marketing I've ever done.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I think it's the perfect marketing strategy.
[SPEAKER_01]: It was great.
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't believe they got more FaceTime than Chris Martin.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it's, but I'm glad, honestly.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I love Chris Martin.
[SPEAKER_01]: But, but he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no, he's no
[SPEAKER_01]: I know.
[SPEAKER_00]: Our crossover man.
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course.
[SPEAKER_00]: The best day ever.
[SPEAKER_03]: to Walt Disney World to the Magic Kingdom with my cousins yesterday.
[SPEAKER_03]: You literally went down for one day and I realized very quickly that I'm not used to going down for one day and I'm certainly not used to going down for one day in the rainy season.
[SPEAKER_03]: So my question to you is, what is the best footwear to wear to Walt Disney World for a full day of fun when it's going to rain?
[SPEAKER_03]: Because we were there all day.
[SPEAKER_03]: I had sneakers on.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was not a good idea.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I thought, who would know better, but you?
[SPEAKER_03]: So, by what is the best you were to wear in the summer, keep your feet safe, clean, comfortable.
[SPEAKER_03]: During the rainy season, I would greatly appreciate any advice.
[SPEAKER_03]: Thank you so much.
[SPEAKER_03]: Bye.
[SPEAKER_01]: Hi, okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So there are different ways we can tackle this.
[SPEAKER_01]: There's what I advise people and then what I actually do.
[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll start with what I advise people.
[SPEAKER_01]: I, in the past, have carried, I guess you would call them poncho's for your feet.
[SPEAKER_01]: They are these,
[SPEAKER_01]: Slip proof waterproof covers that you put over your shoes and you zip them up and there's like ribbing on the bottom So you don't absolutely wipe out and eat it in the middle of magic kingdom and those protect your shoes until the rain stops If I was going on a particularly rainy trip like I knew I would get caught in it.
[SPEAKER_01]: I
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I don't even want to say it.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not gonna say it.
[SPEAKER_01]: I am not going to jinx myself here today.
[SPEAKER_01]: But that is something that I used to carry around with me and I used to use and was quite reliable.
[SPEAKER_01]: I haven't packed those in my bag in a while mostly because I'm more focused on keeping a stroller drive because now my brain is just here to focus on a small human and keeping them safe.
[SPEAKER_01]: But that is something that used to bring all the time and something I have recommended in the past.
[SPEAKER_01]: What I actually do though is a little month for additional.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, they sell water proof shoes here and there.
[SPEAKER_01]: People love them.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not wearing them.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think they're foggy.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not wearing like a waterproof sneaker.
[SPEAKER_01]: It is not something I'm ever going to wear.
[SPEAKER_01]: I tend to be more of the camp of I want my feet to be dry.
[SPEAKER_01]: after the rate.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't mind my feet being wet while it's raining.
[SPEAKER_01]: I care about my feet being dry after.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what I've done in the past is pack a different pair of shoes in my bag.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've had like I want to say like flip-flops and then I like put my broken socks away.
[SPEAKER_01]: I have plastic broken socks.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've done this with crocs where I've like worn those and switched into sneakers.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I that's a lot to carry.
[SPEAKER_01]: I know, but I would do that so that I'd be like in the I didn't have to worry about anything.
[SPEAKER_01]: I could just, like, a frictionless world.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would just wear the wetsuit and then I would have ziplock bags or some sort of plastic bag, something like that, put them in and then switch into dry shoes once the rain stopped.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not always the best approach, but that is something I have done.
[SPEAKER_01]: I have also done a situation where like,
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll wear a crock and then I'll pack like a small towel from the hotel room and dry them off.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've also packed extra socks so I can switch so it's not too wet.
[SPEAKER_01]: I can switch like the sock and the sneaker, but I do not have a foolproof option.
[SPEAKER_01]: It sounds like
[SPEAKER_01]: If you are already going sneaker forward for the parks, you may want to look into like a waterproof sneaker.
[SPEAKER_01]: I know people swear by them.
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, I have a thing about sneakers.
[SPEAKER_01]: It is a mental block.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't like ranked sneakers at all.
[SPEAKER_01]: I wear like a animal print pair of Adidas because they're like fun and silly enough.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I put Miss Piggy's on them.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I have a weird mental thing about sneakers.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what it is.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what it comes from.
[SPEAKER_01]: The idea of wearing like a non-descript sneaker makes me not want to leave the house.
[SPEAKER_01]: That is my package that is not yours.
[SPEAKER_01]: But I would recommend, um, I'll actually I'll put some links in the show notes to some of this stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: Waterproof shoe cover because that means you can wear any shoe you want.
[SPEAKER_01]: You just Waterproof sneakers so put a link to you and then yeah, just like a plastic brick and stock a flip flop changing and then changing back That's kind of my bag I hope that is helpful
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and also I know you said keeping your feet safe clean and comfortable.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm more like I got I want to keep my feet dry after I don't I don't care if they're dirty.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't care if they're dirty Like I don't know what's in that water.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if they rinse down the parks a lot like they can be that dirty, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Nobody from custodial call me Nobody Um, but yeah, that's kind of that's my approach.
[SPEAKER_01]: I hope that's helpful and I apologize if it isn't but Yeah, I'm really I'm really I played fast and loose with rain.
[SPEAKER_01]: I just don't want to be wet after the fact
[SPEAKER_01]: That's our show!
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't wait to be recording this like a tiny mic on my shirt while I'm putting tinted moisturizer on.
[SPEAKER_01]: Technology is wild, might as I've been sitting in a desk you guys, I just can't wait on location places.
[SPEAKER_01]: Be prepared to like suffer the most annoying many episodes when I'm on cruises and in Disney World because I did not realize it as this easy.
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't realize it was crazy.
[SPEAKER_01]: You can, I also, as you know, I always have a list of things I say in this outro, and I cannot remember them, because my brain is like a tiny pee that just simply doesn't work unless I am highly caffeinated, which I am not at the moment, because I woke up after going to a no-a-contro, and went to a very aggressive cardio dance class, and have not had enough water.
