WEBVTT

00:14.758 --> 00:21.163
[SPEAKER_02]: And welcome to very amusing, your one-stop shop for the story, secrets, and shenanigans of a popcorn-fueled theme park and journalist.

00:21.664 --> 00:26.488
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm Carly Wiesell, and I am finally back home after too long, but jam packed weeks away.

00:26.788 --> 00:29.430
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm convinced you can hear Morty like panting in the background.

00:29.691 --> 00:31.853
[SPEAKER_02]: We just went for a walk and we got coffee and he got...

00:32.453 --> 00:35.295
[SPEAKER_02]: Honestly like a like a like two big of a puff cup.

00:35.655 --> 00:58.209
[SPEAKER_02]: I was giving it to him and I was like You're gonna be wild later and then I was like wait that happens with children not dogs Maybe he happens I don't feed him a lot of sugar, but I gave him I asked for a pop cup at a coffee shop Because a long story short usually go to a further one But I didn't want to walk that part today because I'm lazy So I got him I just asked him they gave him like truly like a 10 ounce cup of whipped cream And my boy deserves it So I gave it to him but now I think he's like

00:59.469 --> 01:14.417
[SPEAKER_02]: If he is whole mouth must be like so creamy buttery because I feel like you can hear him on the mic anyway in case you couldn't tell this week is a gap Sash I have so much to catch you up on and we were gonna do a Disney World episode I'm actually going to record that this week as well, and I'm gonna run it a few weeks

01:14.957 --> 01:21.022
[SPEAKER_02]: later when my brain no longer functions after not sleeping for four days after D23 Expo which always happens.

01:21.402 --> 01:23.003
[SPEAKER_02]: D23 I guess we're supposed to call it now.

01:23.643 --> 01:28.027
[SPEAKER_02]: He used to be Expo and I was really on top of that as a journalist and now they've changed in my brain.

01:28.047 --> 01:30.669
[SPEAKER_02]: Remember like how I always do with that coaster at Epic Universe?

01:31.529 --> 01:33.571
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not even going to say the name I'm allowed because I know it's going to be wrong.

01:35.592 --> 01:36.993
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, you're in for a treat.

01:37.373 --> 01:38.653
[SPEAKER_02]: There's so much we have to talk about.

01:39.054 --> 01:55.301
[SPEAKER_02]: I I'm trying to be more organized and so I have just an out like like throughout the month I'll email myself myself and be like, oh, don't forget to mention that on gabs actually because otherwise I'll just sit here and rant about a zilch nothing and so I have a whole list of stuff I get we to get into I live so many lives this month guys.

01:55.721 --> 01:57.962
[SPEAKER_01]: I live so many lives my desk is

01:58.422 --> 02:09.112
[SPEAKER_02]: covered in postcards, like those light up wristbands from the Noah show patches, just was what cameras I've developed, stickers, pearls, jewelry she left in here when she comes in during the day.

02:09.332 --> 02:16.518
[SPEAKER_02]: There's so much, there's so much going on in my table, there's so much going on in life, and I can't wait to get into it with you, so stick around, we have a fun one ahead.

02:16.938 --> 02:19.401
[SPEAKER_02]: And then we, in the coming weeks, there's some really good ones.

02:19.461 --> 02:20.041
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll get into it later.

02:20.101 --> 02:21.182
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, stick around, we'll talk to you soon.

02:21.362 --> 02:21.623
[SPEAKER_02]: Love you.

02:21.903 --> 02:22.884
[SPEAKER_02]: Bye, but like only for now.

02:23.064 --> 02:24.205
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll see you in a few minutes, right?

02:24.325 --> 02:24.886
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll see you for a minute.

02:25.226 --> 02:25.406
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

02:31.558 --> 02:32.640
[UNKNOWN]: Thank you very much.

02:44.760 --> 02:45.340
[SPEAKER_02]: Welcome back.

02:45.580 --> 03:00.044
[SPEAKER_02]: It is fully delusional of me that I am at my desk for the first time in like two weeks I went on the town for two weeks two weeks is not that long and yet I'm sitting here like wow I can barely remember what it's like to do this job.

03:00.104 --> 03:01.164
[SPEAKER_02]: I was gone for two weeks.

03:01.324 --> 03:11.987
[SPEAKER_02]: I was gone for like 15 days I'm so dramatic like my internal monologue is so dramatic to be like wow what a journey We've been on friends that now I'm finally back at my mic.

03:12.347 --> 03:13.347
[SPEAKER_02]: It was two weeks

03:13.727 --> 03:19.969
[SPEAKER_02]: It was two weeks, but I'm so delighted to be back because we have an unbelievable amount of stuff to talk about.

03:20.290 --> 03:23.171
[SPEAKER_02]: So much so that I'm very worried I'm going to forget.

03:23.191 --> 03:39.117
[SPEAKER_02]: I have been keeping gab session notes for the past month, obviously, but it's still like, so much is happening, so much is happening in the world's moving so fast, and like, it's summer is almost ending, like it's just too fast, it's too fast, it's all going too fast, and I'm just going to try to do my best to make sure I cover everything that we have to talk about.

03:39.677 --> 03:42.718
[SPEAKER_02]: As you know, there is a format to our GapSash monthly episodes.

03:42.978 --> 03:48.679
[SPEAKER_02]: We talk about Disney stuff, we talk about others stuff, and what I'm talking about, we talk about health and life stuff, and we talk about stuff I'm currently obsessed with.

03:49.079 --> 03:52.419
[SPEAKER_02]: And we're going to start with the Disney stuff section, only spoiler alert.

03:52.539 --> 03:58.900
[SPEAKER_02]: It's going to be a little more universal this time, because we have to talk about what is happening at Universal Studios Hollywood.

03:59.261 --> 04:07.062
[SPEAKER_02]: Now, Universal Studios Hollywood was about to debut truly the coolest coaster that we have ever gotten in this region.

04:07.522 --> 04:11.383
[SPEAKER_02]: This coaster, you've got to give it my universal studio is Hollywood is like in the middle of the city.

04:11.883 --> 04:21.425
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's wild that they are debuting this drifting fancy, very technologically advanced, fast in the furious coaster, in our own city.

04:21.865 --> 04:24.526
[SPEAKER_02]: And this thing was supposed to be open.

04:24.566 --> 04:33.048
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, there are billboards all over LA being like fast in furious coaster, coming summer 2020 to 26, and it is not open yet.

04:33.408 --> 04:47.844
[SPEAKER_02]: Future Carly here just a quick update that in the time since I recorded this podcast only look for hours of past But I got a text message from Todd Martin spread to the pod for the only time saying Costa is opening all caps and I said wow when and he said no They just

04:49.065 --> 04:49.846
[SPEAKER_02]: They just opened it.

04:50.146 --> 04:51.848
[SPEAKER_02]: They just opened the fastest furious coaster.

04:51.928 --> 04:56.833
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think I'm going to have time to go on it before this podcast airs, which is why I'm recording this in several according to whole segment.

04:57.293 --> 04:59.836
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, I guess they just freaking opened it.

04:59.936 --> 05:01.237
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a technical rehearsal.

05:01.297 --> 05:02.378
[SPEAKER_02]: It is a soft opening.

05:02.398 --> 05:08.204
[SPEAKER_02]: So you do not have the official opening date yet, but for people who live in LA, it's kind of sorta open.

05:09.045 --> 05:10.045
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, that's my update.

05:10.345 --> 05:17.908
[SPEAKER_02]: The main narrative that is public right now is that there is a sound issue with the surrounding area, which is to Luka Lake.

05:17.948 --> 05:21.229
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like a very quaint, cute little neighborhood.

05:21.269 --> 05:23.310
[SPEAKER_02]: It's where Priscilla is, my favorite coffee shop.

05:23.730 --> 05:26.251
[SPEAKER_02]: And there's been a lot of online discourse about this.

05:26.331 --> 05:28.632
[SPEAKER_02]: So I just want to talk about it for a minute.

05:28.952 --> 05:34.714
[SPEAKER_02]: My friend Tom Martin's friend of the podcast at the LA Times did a really great reported story on what's happening, which I will

05:35.954 --> 05:42.382
[SPEAKER_02]: But I've seen a lot of people cloning on the residents of this town online, and I just don't understand why.

05:42.402 --> 05:53.096
[SPEAKER_02]: Like if I was like living in my home, like luck enough to live in Los Angeles, hanging out, and all of a sudden like every what, 30 or so seconds, people are screaming?

05:53.917 --> 06:04.626
[SPEAKER_02]: I would be losing my GDP mine too, and I know that there's, you know, the sound ordinances, the decibels, like there is things are kind of, oh, like it does, I don't know what's, I don't know what's going to happen.

06:04.646 --> 06:09.810
[SPEAKER_02]: Things might change by the time this podcast comes out, but after reading Todd's reporting and like hearing all the other things going on,

06:10.511 --> 06:28.348
[SPEAKER_02]: it sounds like this is like a no-win situation because universal supposedly did a lot of work to keep the volume down to the coaster that's like they try to have people turn away in the vehicles with surrounding neighborhood they used p-grabble they built sound varies like they did a lot to mitigate the noise but

06:28.948 --> 06:32.171
[SPEAKER_02]: the noise of the coasters in the issue that's the people screaming on the ride.

06:32.692 --> 06:42.181
[SPEAKER_02]: And if I was trying to record this podcast in every less than a minute people were screaming, I would have to go on prescription medicine like I would not be able to handle that.

06:42.241 --> 06:45.505
[SPEAKER_02]: If it's like if someone's mowing across the street, I'm afraid.

06:45.945 --> 06:47.105
[SPEAKER_02]: this cannot handle that.

06:47.406 --> 06:49.366
[SPEAKER_02]: So I really feel for these residents.

06:49.667 --> 06:56.329
[SPEAKER_02]: And there was this, there's one person that Todd spoke to, which I think really encapsulated everything that's happening, where they were both super stoked for the coaster.

06:56.629 --> 06:59.891
[SPEAKER_02]: And the coaster was also slightly ruining their quality of life.

07:00.131 --> 07:01.791
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it really, really is wild.

07:01.912 --> 07:10.175
[SPEAKER_02]: And I really hope they come to a solution because I just feel such sympathy and such empathy for the people who live in the area that

07:10.895 --> 07:12.756
[SPEAKER_02]: People are being so mean online and I don't understand.

07:12.796 --> 07:13.077
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry.

07:13.097 --> 07:15.158
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't understand what they were being so mean to these people online.

07:15.178 --> 07:18.960
[SPEAKER_02]: They were bullying them They're bullying them They were like they were like shut up.

07:18.980 --> 07:20.321
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a coaster you live near a theme park.

07:20.401 --> 07:30.588
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this wasn't always like this is the first time They've done anything like this if you want to if you want to call him a griff like a roller coaster and like a mummy We can say that oh, they've had thrill rides

07:30.808 --> 07:57.196
[SPEAKER_02]: but this has never been an issue until now and it's wild and it just always makes me think about there's some lore that I should actually, you know, if I like going to see my friends regularly and remember I would actually deep dive on but there's some lore that like there was this one random story I don't know if it's true, I don't know if it's true, take it with a grain of salt that on the Universal Studios Studio tour there's the World of the World scene which is basically like a horrific airplane crash that is just there all day long just all day and I heard some

07:59.777 --> 08:08.019
[SPEAKER_02]: This is taking the journalist hat off putting the gossip hat on apparently there was a family because there's you know It's at the bottom of like a like a little ledge and overlook.

08:08.039 --> 08:23.402
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know how you describe it There's houses that look on this and apparently someone went out of town and came back and they were like Sorry, what because all of a sudden their view was of an airplane crash I need to find out if that's true or not because it's so wild to me and this whole situation makes me think of it

08:23.842 --> 08:25.744
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, we TBD put a pin in it.

08:25.944 --> 08:27.306
[SPEAKER_02]: I can't wait to get on that coaster.

08:27.406 --> 08:31.310
[SPEAKER_02]: I also really, really hope things are figured out for the residents, because I will feel so guilty.

08:32.491 --> 08:33.052
[SPEAKER_02]: Trying to make any noise.

08:33.072 --> 08:37.776
[SPEAKER_02]: It'll be like those videos that Disney parks make, when people in celebrities go to Disney World where they're like, try not to react.

08:38.057 --> 08:44.443
[SPEAKER_02]: That'll be me on the fast and furious, drift coaster, trying not to upset my fellow Los Angelinos.

08:44.603 --> 08:45.304
[SPEAKER_02]: This is where I am.

08:45.424 --> 08:46.005
[SPEAKER_02]: This is where I am.

08:46.525 --> 08:52.230
[SPEAKER_02]: Some other stuff that I want to talk about, um, epic universe added nighttime entertainment, thank goodness how fun.

08:52.530 --> 08:55.713
[SPEAKER_02]: It's one of the most challenging parts, I mean, this is a game of sound.

08:55.773 --> 09:08.184
[SPEAKER_02]: Ooh, most challenging, but it is kind of tricky that like we go to a lot of these openings and like it's a lot of work, we're doing a lot of coverage, but we're also given these like beautiful one night only pieces of entertainment that no one else can see.

09:08.504 --> 09:13.950
[SPEAKER_02]: And I find that really frustrating because I view myself when I do my job when things are opening.

09:14.010 --> 09:20.238
[SPEAKER_02]: I view myself as like the eyes of the people who are going to be paying customers.

09:20.638 --> 09:28.106
[SPEAKER_02]: I really like to experience and then do whatever I can to help people navigate and understand what they are paying for and how to get the most out of their trip.

09:29.240 --> 09:37.903
[SPEAKER_01]: A lot of times that he's opening, so they'll do these big entertainment things that we get to see, and that's it, and it feels very unfair, and I know people online have said, like, that's not fair.

09:37.963 --> 09:44.645
[SPEAKER_02]: And I agree, I know when they open Star Wars Galaxy's Edge in Orlando, they did that big drone show, I think so, my memory is failing me.

09:45.125 --> 09:49.127
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, there's a lot of stuff like this, the fantasy land dragon, which I was before my time.

09:49.407 --> 09:50.607
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I've heard of it.

09:50.647 --> 09:51.227
[SPEAKER_02]: It's infamous.

09:51.627 --> 09:55.529
[SPEAKER_02]: But we had this beautiful nighttime spectacular when they opened up a universe.

09:55.589 --> 09:56.609
[SPEAKER_02]: And then like, hmm, bye.

09:56.649 --> 09:57.630
[SPEAKER_02]: It was never happening again.

09:57.890 --> 10:03.952
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's so glad they added it because it really, I think, just puts a button on the day of that park in a way that,

10:04.668 --> 10:27.765
[SPEAKER_02]: like it just it's just a very very special finale to being there because it gives celestial park beyond its ambiance and like beyond the dining and like a few attractions and offers it really cohesively brings the park together to have nighttime entertainment that you can watch in there and I'm so glad they did that I'm so glad they did that um some other stuff Disneyland raised prices of some food and beverage which

10:28.752 --> 10:35.818
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, I was explaining this, explaining this to a friend yesterday and they laughed at me because as you know, they raised the price of popcorn.

10:36.218 --> 10:38.640
[SPEAKER_02]: It is now $7 at Disneyland.

10:38.980 --> 10:40.661
[SPEAKER_02]: I was groaning about this to a friend.

10:40.762 --> 10:44.765
[SPEAKER_02]: Not Disney people, like not people that go a lot, just like a friend who doesn't do this a lot.

10:45.405 --> 10:47.347
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, it isn't like Puppers are seven dollars.

10:47.447 --> 10:48.548
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was so upset about it.

10:48.568 --> 10:50.489
[SPEAKER_02]: And they were like, okay, what was the price before?

10:50.509 --> 10:52.151
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought I was like, it was 650.

10:52.211 --> 10:53.332
[SPEAKER_02]: They raised it 50 cents.

10:53.672 --> 10:54.773
[SPEAKER_02]: And they laughed in my face.

10:55.153 --> 11:05.682
[SPEAKER_02]: I think because two, you know, a person who isn't emotionally attached to the pricing and a mouse led theme park resort, they're kind of like, okay, everything's more expensive now.

11:05.742 --> 11:08.204
[SPEAKER_02]: 50 cents in the grandfee scheme of things is not that much.

11:08.244 --> 11:10.185
[SPEAKER_02]: That's like 20 minutes at a parking meter.

11:10.646 --> 11:14.389
[SPEAKER_02]: But for me, it feels a grigious and wrong.

11:15.795 --> 11:18.579
[SPEAKER_02]: Dollars, I am not at a sporting event.

11:18.979 --> 11:21.262
[SPEAKER_02]: I am not at a basketball game in an arena.

11:21.602 --> 11:29.452
[SPEAKER_02]: When theme park popcorn prices are encroaching on and like in some cities exceeding the price of popcorn at a freaking movie theater?

11:30.417 --> 11:30.997
[SPEAKER_02]: We have a problem.

11:31.517 --> 11:32.118
[SPEAKER_02]: We have a problem.

11:32.138 --> 11:32.558
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry.

11:32.598 --> 11:34.719
[SPEAKER_02]: Like $7 is too much.

11:34.979 --> 11:38.040
[SPEAKER_02]: And if they wanted me to not scream about this, I will be screaming about this every week.

11:38.080 --> 11:38.780
[SPEAKER_02]: Just prepare yourself.

11:38.860 --> 11:40.921
[SPEAKER_02]: Prepare yourself because I'm very I rate about it.

11:40.941 --> 11:43.662
[SPEAKER_02]: I have that voice on my friend in my head being like, it's a corner like the decent.

11:44.122 --> 11:44.703
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't care.

11:44.963 --> 11:45.843
[SPEAKER_02]: It is not okay.

11:46.083 --> 11:48.984
[SPEAKER_02]: It is not okay to be increasing the prices this much on stuff.

11:49.024 --> 11:55.887
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it's I understand like a lot of people didn't go to Disneyland this summer, asterisk as a personal opinion do not come from a Disneyland.

11:55.987 --> 12:15.108
[SPEAKER_02]: But you know, we looked at the numbers and the parks were dead at certain points and they started selling with other tickets to recoup, I understand they got a recoup, but do they have to recoup with like 50 cents on my property, $7, and if they wanted it, if Disney wanted to control me, they would release a popcorn bucket that is refillable, a Disney line resort for magic keyholders.

12:15.428 --> 12:34.992
[SPEAKER_02]: future currently here now i don't know what happens but when i say things out loud they somehow get spoken into existence because truly moments after i recorded the podcast Disney land magic keep posted an update that there is a carousel popcorn bucket king earth is carousel popcorn bucket which will have two dollar and twenty five cent refills from magic keyholders now through august seven teeth

12:35.392 --> 12:38.314
[SPEAKER_02]: By the time you're listening to this, that is less than three weeks.

12:38.354 --> 12:40.436
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm not out of your buying a premium popcorn bucket.

12:40.796 --> 12:42.358
[SPEAKER_02]: Just the math does not math.

12:42.678 --> 12:44.960
[SPEAKER_02]: Just to get 225 refills for less than three weeks.

12:45.220 --> 12:45.861
[SPEAKER_02]: Less than three weeks.

12:46.121 --> 12:47.622
[SPEAKER_02]: Can we get a year-round one sister?

12:47.662 --> 12:49.283
[SPEAKER_02]: Can we get a whole year-round one?

12:49.323 --> 12:51.705
[SPEAKER_02]: This was not the refill that I was dreaming of.

12:52.406 --> 12:59.011
[SPEAKER_02]: I guess I got to be more specific when I put in my global demands, but cool, but this is not it.

12:59.451 --> 13:04.175
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, it's like the hottest time you're how many times you think I'm going to go to the park and from do you think I can make that popcorn math work?

13:04.235 --> 13:04.696
[SPEAKER_02]: I can't.

13:05.136 --> 13:05.997
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me your long refills.

13:06.157 --> 13:06.977
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, back to the show.

13:07.277 --> 13:13.681
[SPEAKER_02]: We have no permanent refillable bucket set up like they do it Disney world It Disney world again buy a bucket.

13:13.701 --> 13:14.362
[SPEAKER_02]: You're fine.

13:14.382 --> 13:16.243
[SPEAKER_02]: You put your money in you pass the break even point.

13:16.263 --> 13:23.767
[SPEAKER_02]: You're good But like listen, I barely took economics in college, but I And they can't like just just give us a bucket

13:24.808 --> 13:25.429
[SPEAKER_02]: Give us a bucket.

13:25.469 --> 13:30.917
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm so upset about this and I know it's a dumb little thing to be upset about But that's being a Disney fan baby.

13:31.017 --> 13:31.798
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what it is.

13:32.058 --> 13:34.281
[SPEAKER_02]: And I just think it is so aggrigious to call it.

13:34.301 --> 13:38.026
[SPEAKER_02]: Charge 7 Dollars for a curtain of popcorn.

13:38.086 --> 13:38.327
[SPEAKER_02]: That is

13:39.862 --> 13:40.922
[SPEAKER_02]: It's literally corn.

13:41.703 --> 13:44.003
[SPEAKER_02]: It's what we feed to chickens, right?

13:44.023 --> 13:45.344
[SPEAKER_02]: Like what am I doing here?

13:46.164 --> 13:47.204
[SPEAKER_02]: $7 for popcorn.

13:47.284 --> 13:47.784
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm upset.

13:48.324 --> 13:48.784
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm upset.

13:49.245 --> 13:49.945
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm upset about it.

13:50.265 --> 13:52.165
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me a refillable bucket and then I will be quiet.

13:52.185 --> 13:53.586
[SPEAKER_02]: But until then you will not sign with me.

13:53.846 --> 13:56.487
[SPEAKER_02]: People have sign with my pain and anger about the popcorn prices.

13:56.787 --> 13:57.327
[SPEAKER_02]: It's ridiculous.

13:57.367 --> 14:02.288
[SPEAKER_02]: It made me mad about 50 cents and yet I'm like $2 million mad about 50 cents.

14:02.828 --> 14:03.348
[SPEAKER_01]: I just am.

14:03.428 --> 14:08.770
[SPEAKER_02]: And maybe it's just because like the news is slow because of each 23 is approaching, but I'm upset.

14:09.635 --> 14:10.116
[SPEAKER_02]: sneaking up.

14:10.176 --> 14:13.820
[SPEAKER_02]: D23 is just a few weeks away.

14:14.100 --> 14:20.848
[SPEAKER_02]: And it is exciting because we are about to find out truly the way I describe it to friends is like I'm going to find out the next five to 10 years in my life.

14:21.229 --> 14:28.678
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I don't know what I will be doing on vacation and for work until D23 until I'm sitting in that arena and they're telling me.

14:29.038 --> 14:32.759
[SPEAKER_02]: It is the most exhausting, intense weekend of my career every two years.

14:33.159 --> 14:34.160
[SPEAKER_02]: I truly don't sleep.

14:34.780 --> 14:40.221
[SPEAKER_02]: I think last time I set up to like 430 in the morning, took a two hour nap and then got up and just like made videos again.

14:40.982 --> 14:47.884
[SPEAKER_02]: And I personally have a very bonkers busy week that week, so I will be juggling a lot of balls.

14:48.404 --> 14:52.405
[SPEAKER_02]: I was juggling a lot of, a lot of pics are balls just trying to like make everything happen.

14:52.785 --> 14:53.466
[SPEAKER_02]: But I am ready.

14:54.046 --> 14:54.667
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm excited.

14:55.067 --> 14:57.910
[SPEAKER_02]: I actually don't even know if I'm going yet.

14:58.311 --> 15:00.212
[SPEAKER_02]: Listen, this is the story secrets and shenanigans.

15:00.232 --> 15:01.314
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to peel the curtain back.

15:02.014 --> 15:04.997
[SPEAKER_02]: I have not gotten media confirmation or denial yet.

15:05.418 --> 15:06.879
[SPEAKER_02]: I've only ever attended for media.

15:06.899 --> 15:07.980
[SPEAKER_02]: I've never really bought a ticket.

15:08.561 --> 15:12.825
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm there for work, but also when you attend for media, you have different access than if you're a ticket holder.

15:13.265 --> 15:24.211
[SPEAKER_02]: So for me to do my work to be able to post things, to be able to write stories in real time, like I got to be able to have devices there, which was especially a big deal back in the day, D23 Expo, and it's past proper term.

15:25.151 --> 15:32.615
[SPEAKER_02]: Before it would be at the Anneheim Convention Center, and you couldn't bring in things like laptops into that big, I want to call it hall-aged, but I think that's the San Diego Comic-Con.

15:32.675 --> 15:36.157
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm, again, my brain brain brain brain is overloaded.

15:36.177 --> 15:40.819
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like a computer that has every single window open, and you can hear the fan inside running, which you know isn't good.

15:40.859 --> 15:42.040
[SPEAKER_02]: That's kind of what my brain is lately.

15:42.460 --> 15:58.092
[SPEAKER_02]: So, I used, I go with media because I'm, I'm working, I'd be working, and I don't know if it's enough I'm going again, I'm like pretty stressed, I'm pretty stressed, like I, I hope to go, I hope to go, I think I'm gonna go, but we'll find out, I never know.

15:58.192 --> 16:12.003
[SPEAKER_02]: That's like the wild thing about doing my job is that from the outside it probably looks like, you know, I'm 11 years in, I cover stuff all the time, I've written for every outlet, I continue to write here and there, I'm like, right in some stuff for Yahoo now, I'm writing it a few other places, but you never know.

16:12.243 --> 16:13.944
[SPEAKER_02]: You never know, so hopefully you'll be there.

16:15.506 --> 16:17.307
[SPEAKER_02]: Think, fingers crossed, fingers crossed.

16:17.387 --> 16:26.394
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm excited to, that's really, I'm not the type of person who's like, I don't have as a hubris and maybe not the right word, but I'm never someone who's like, expecting to be invited.

16:26.534 --> 16:30.097
[SPEAKER_02]: It is a delight every time to be given access to do my job, every single time.

16:30.778 --> 16:33.200
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm very grateful for it, so fingers crossed, I get to cover in 2023.

16:34.020 --> 16:36.422
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I'm personally excited for if I make it again.

16:36.442 --> 16:37.102
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to jinx.

16:37.182 --> 16:43.407
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like so many people probably just like a assume they're gonna go I'm hoping I never know you never know you never know.

16:43.427 --> 16:45.989
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm just hoping Welcome to my neurosis anyway.

16:46.569 --> 16:49.011
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm excited to see if they do with the Walt Disney Imaginary pavilion

16:49.331 --> 16:52.415
[SPEAKER_02]: Personally, I thought last time they didn't incredible job.

16:52.776 --> 16:56.261
[SPEAKER_02]: It was so cool to see like there was actual Imagineers just on the floor.

16:56.842 --> 17:05.554
[SPEAKER_02]: The fact that you could just walk up and talk to an Imagineer is so beyond bonkers because that's how you used to be like the thing I keep coming back to.

17:06.395 --> 17:09.276
[SPEAKER_02]: Every time WTI does anything, they released a YouTube series.

17:09.296 --> 17:11.717
[SPEAKER_02]: They just released that clothing line, like all of these things.

17:12.337 --> 17:21.979
[SPEAKER_02]: The one thing my brain goes back to is the fact that I once attended a press conference announcing that they were going to launch a Walt Disney Imaginary website, a website.

17:22.600 --> 17:25.200
[SPEAKER_02]: It was historic that they were launching a website, okay?

17:25.820 --> 17:28.681
[SPEAKER_02]: Website, that is, this place was shrouded in mystery forever.

17:28.781 --> 17:33.863
[SPEAKER_02]: And they needed to pull back the curtain, not only because they need, you know, new talent to know what goes on here,

17:35.263 --> 17:41.708
[SPEAKER_02]: It is kind of weird that in our hyper media culture, now, there was just this area where people didn't know how things were made.

17:41.728 --> 17:43.209
[SPEAKER_02]: I think they've done an incredible job.

17:43.990 --> 17:51.355
[SPEAKER_02]: I personally, my personal favorite is when they put out those slideshows, where it's like the whole past photo, that sounds like I'm talking about theater when I phrase it like that.

17:51.576 --> 17:59.462
[SPEAKER_02]: But the photo of everyone who worked on a ship, in attraction, on a project, and then they do the little arrows with the little names, you can see who each person is, to be like real people.

17:59.922 --> 18:02.024
[SPEAKER_02]: Clock in the work every day to make these things happen.

18:02.084 --> 18:04.306
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that is so incredible that they do that.

18:04.406 --> 18:07.108
[SPEAKER_02]: I love the WDI is not this secret thing anymore.

18:07.388 --> 18:14.134
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it is maybe made it even more hallowed, but in a good way, it's just kind of like, wow, we can actually see the people who do this stuff.

18:14.534 --> 18:18.357
[SPEAKER_02]: And they deserve to be praised, because a lot of times it was just the lead to imagine you were beyond there.

18:18.377 --> 18:18.738
[SPEAKER_02]: It was just like,

18:19.318 --> 18:32.747
[SPEAKER_02]: Joe Rodey, like, and think about it with Animal Kingdom, Disney's Animal Kingdom, we know it was Joe Rodey's projects, but like, if you're really in the know, you know a few other imaginers who worked on it, but we don't know like the 20, 30, 40 imaginers, people who worked on details of that park, the way we do now.

18:33.127 --> 18:42.313
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think that's an incredible change, and so I'm very excited to hopefully, hopefully, see that pavilion, but we're really in it for the theme park news, and I am very, very much looking forward to.

18:42.373 --> 18:45.815
[SPEAKER_02]: The entertainment news pretty cool too, a lot of stuff came out of Comic Con a few weeks ago.

18:46.515 --> 18:53.519
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know how they decide what's what goes where, but I mean, it feels like Marvel is really ramping up towards something big soon.

18:53.539 --> 18:56.021
[SPEAKER_02]: We have that new Spider-Man movie, Avengers.

18:56.041 --> 19:00.223
[SPEAKER_02]: Doomsday, like it feels like things are ramping back up in a way we haven't seen in a few years.

19:00.283 --> 19:07.187
[SPEAKER_02]: The last time I was like really flying in high with Marvel was the Loki series, so I'm hoping they can capture that energy I had for that once again.

19:07.207 --> 19:08.268
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just very exciting.

19:08.508 --> 19:09.689
[SPEAKER_02]: And like, who doesn't love Tom Holland?

19:09.709 --> 19:09.989
[SPEAKER_02]: You know?

19:10.350 --> 19:11.110
[SPEAKER_02]: Who doesn't love Tom Holland?

19:11.751 --> 19:21.719
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, the last thing I wanted to discuss, and I, you know, I said to myself, I was going to, I was going to, I was going to post something and be like, the last thing you'll ever catch me do is talk about a ketchup partnership and here we are.

19:21.739 --> 19:25.202
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a reason I didn't say that because I was like, you know what, I think we're going to end up talking about this.

19:25.542 --> 19:27.364
[SPEAKER_02]: So that Heinz partnership got announced.

19:27.424 --> 19:27.704
[SPEAKER_02]: Cool.

19:27.784 --> 19:28.685
[SPEAKER_02]: I think everyone likes Heinz.

19:28.905 --> 19:29.365
[SPEAKER_02]: That's fun.

19:29.526 --> 19:30.106
[SPEAKER_02]: Love a sauce.

19:30.266 --> 19:31.227
[SPEAKER_02]: Love and a sauce option.

19:31.427 --> 19:32.748
[SPEAKER_02]: If there's a sauce bar signed me up.

19:33.269 --> 19:38.173
[SPEAKER_02]: But like in the press release, it mentioned that it mentioned Mac and cheese.

19:38.794 --> 19:42.617
[SPEAKER_02]: And there's going to be a custom elevated recipe of craft macaroni and cheese.

19:43.277 --> 19:43.458
[SPEAKER_02]: But

19:44.497 --> 19:48.118
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, like, journalists brain, that means the mac and cheese is changing, right?

19:48.238 --> 19:52.459
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like that's Star Wars meme where it's like, but the mac and cheese will be the same, right?

19:53.139 --> 19:53.459
[SPEAKER_02]: Right?

19:53.539 --> 19:54.460
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, that's kind of how I feel.

19:54.480 --> 19:56.180
[SPEAKER_02]: Are they changing the Disney mac and cheese?

19:56.200 --> 19:57.820
[SPEAKER_02]: The Disneyland Disney world Disney cruise line?

19:58.241 --> 19:59.561
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what they mean, right?

19:59.881 --> 20:03.502
[SPEAKER_02]: So I sent a very hair-brained email to a PR contact and was like,

20:04.142 --> 20:06.644
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm just going to tell you the email verbatim because it's so funny.

20:06.664 --> 20:07.344
[SPEAKER_02]: It's so stupid.

20:07.704 --> 20:10.606
[SPEAKER_02]: I said to being like, I know this is stupid, but I have to do my job.

20:10.626 --> 20:12.428
[SPEAKER_02]: I have to ask even though I know this is dumb.

20:12.868 --> 20:18.171
[SPEAKER_02]: I said, if you're able to comment, can we expect the macaroni and cheese at Disney Parks and Disney designed to change with this partnership?

20:18.572 --> 20:21.614
[SPEAKER_02]: Can you provide any context on the meaning of custom elevated recipe?

20:22.014 --> 20:22.794
[SPEAKER_02]: And I have it her back.

20:23.295 --> 20:25.116
[SPEAKER_02]: So I got nothing for ya.

20:25.216 --> 20:25.817
[SPEAKER_02]: I put in the work.

20:25.837 --> 20:26.437
[SPEAKER_02]: I put in the time.

20:26.497 --> 20:27.698
[SPEAKER_02]: I do not know myself, but

20:28.278 --> 20:55.495
[SPEAKER_02]: if you are a Disney macaroni and cheese accolades um just for myself uh I don't know if it's going to change and also don't forget sometimes things change and they are better so maybe what if it's like because you know like craft does like a deluxe shells and cheese situation if it's something like that whoo baby I am on board so maybe not bad news maybe not bad news but worth at least being abreast of because something might happen um and last but not least

20:58.037 --> 21:00.199
[SPEAKER_02]: I already said, what does double, what does double last night least?

21:00.219 --> 21:03.122
[SPEAKER_02]: Because I just said, last night least last night least.

21:03.182 --> 21:04.783
[SPEAKER_02]: That's not the West way to do that anyway.

21:05.544 --> 21:09.668
[SPEAKER_02]: Similar to how I never want to jinx anything, you're expecting anything or believe anything's actually going to happen until it's happening.

21:10.889 --> 21:14.953
[SPEAKER_02]: I am going on a fun work trip soon, which you will be hearing about.

21:15.353 --> 21:20.198
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, like it's booked, I'm going, but it's still like, I'm like, I can't talk about it.

21:20.238 --> 21:21.099
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know why.

21:21.559 --> 21:22.220
[SPEAKER_02]: Why am I like this?

21:22.520 --> 21:40.316
[SPEAKER_02]: This is my literal job like if I was an accountant and a company and they booked me a work trip I wouldn't be like oh no don't like a maybe ten-for-one happen like I don't know why I'm like this I just am I never like to take anything for granted I don't want to jinx anything but I am supposed to be going on a work trip soon I will tell you about it when it gets closer and I cannot wait cuz it's gonna be

21:41.056 --> 21:42.197
[SPEAKER_02]: so fun.

21:42.237 --> 21:53.503
[SPEAKER_02]: It seems like this trip was designed for someone who likes to scream about things into their phone and baby that is my wheelhouse and so I cannot wait to do that for you and um all across social media when this thing happens.

21:54.004 --> 22:02.509
[SPEAKER_02]: Moving on to things I've done lately that I want to chat with you about because Lordy Lord I have been a lot of places and done a lot of things.

22:02.849 --> 22:07.572
[SPEAKER_02]: We went on this two week trip which I like I got to a point where we went to we went to I went to

22:10.053 --> 22:11.695
[SPEAKER_02]: been went to five in a week.

22:12.076 --> 22:21.587
[SPEAKER_02]: The tour routing could not have benefited us better to the point where like someone I met someone at live nation or something and I was like thank you for your service.

22:21.627 --> 22:27.715
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I don't know who I don't know who laid the tour out like this where it went Boston to Chicago to New York.

22:28.135 --> 22:32.657
[SPEAKER_02]: but it works out perfectly for us visiting family in Chicago and New York.

22:32.677 --> 22:35.619
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I literally, I went to Chicago and everything lined up perfectly.

22:35.639 --> 22:36.479
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I don't know.

22:36.499 --> 22:38.720
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to jinx it, but it was fantastic for us.

22:39.141 --> 22:42.282
[SPEAKER_02]: So we, I flew to Chicago for, I think I already told you about this.

22:42.903 --> 22:47.725
[SPEAKER_02]: I flew to Chicago for about a week, Ben went to Boston and met us there and then went to New York for about a week.

22:48.425 --> 22:50.667
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, being back in Chicago was really nice.

22:50.907 --> 22:51.307
[SPEAKER_02]: Hi, Mom.

22:52.047 --> 23:11.154
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I did not appreciate how nice my hometown was until I went back as an adult and I was like, what do you mean all these plants the landscaping is impeccable what do you mean all the lawns are beautiful what do you mean everyone has space like I really as city brain adult parent city brain like oh my god, I went back and was like oh my god, my hometown is nice this little hometown is nice I had no idea.

23:12.194 --> 23:17.177
[SPEAKER_02]: And partially, it's because they did open a new coffee shop near my high school, and I went there every single day.

23:17.578 --> 23:18.718
[SPEAKER_02]: Sometimes it's a day and it was wonderful.

23:18.819 --> 23:20.940
[SPEAKER_02]: I keep thinking about it, I keep thinking about how good it was.

23:21.180 --> 23:22.481
[SPEAKER_02]: I went to an incredible workout class.

23:22.561 --> 23:25.323
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't remember if I told you about this in the Milwaukee episode or not, so I apologize.

23:25.603 --> 23:27.985
[SPEAKER_02]: But they opened a sick workout studio.

23:28.245 --> 23:30.346
[SPEAKER_02]: You're my parents' house, went to one of the best instructors I've ever gone to.

23:31.447 --> 23:32.027
[SPEAKER_02]: It was nice.

23:32.107 --> 23:33.108
[SPEAKER_02]: Also being in the Midwest.

23:33.908 --> 23:37.990
[SPEAKER_02]: We went to Wisconsin as you know, hearing someone say, bang, do you want a bag?

23:38.410 --> 23:39.211
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not even saying that right.

23:39.231 --> 23:40.171
[SPEAKER_02]: Sounds like bagel.

23:40.571 --> 23:42.692
[SPEAKER_02]: The way a mid-oh, Wisconsin accent says bag.

23:43.112 --> 23:44.493
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you want a bag?

23:45.473 --> 23:48.595
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm getting into mouth territory, but it was so delightful.

23:48.615 --> 23:49.835
[SPEAKER_02]: They'll be like, oh, I'm home.

23:50.456 --> 23:51.936
[SPEAKER_02]: We're calling it so to pop.

23:51.996 --> 23:52.917
[SPEAKER_02]: It was just really nice.

23:53.437 --> 23:54.077
[SPEAKER_02]: It was really lovely.

23:54.677 --> 23:59.940
[SPEAKER_02]: Something else that was really great about being back in the Midwest was that I was the aggressive driver.

24:00.780 --> 24:03.142
[SPEAKER_02]: I was the one driving crazy.

24:03.582 --> 24:17.413
[SPEAKER_02]: Everyone drove so safely to the point where like I'm not the people I know people are really aren't safe, but I was back in a like I'm a very safe driver and the first time I drove back in town I was like oh, yeah, it is absolutely unhinged here

24:17.753 --> 24:22.996
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I don't need to follow F1 because my life is F1 driving to preschool.

24:23.296 --> 24:26.058
[SPEAKER_02]: People be doing the wackiest stuff.

24:26.298 --> 24:35.723
[SPEAKER_02]: You know you see those car commercials where it's like a family in a Volvo when they're happy and the mom looks back and she's like, oh, I love my life and she turns back and there's like a truck or an SUV and she goes, ah, and then her car breaks for her.

24:35.983 --> 24:38.665
[SPEAKER_02]: That is literally every time you leave your house in LA.

24:38.845 --> 24:42.327
[SPEAKER_02]: Every time four-way stop, almost gotten into car accidents, walking and in a car.

24:42.707 --> 24:46.530
[SPEAKER_02]: not because of me because other people are on their phone and not paying attention to stop signs.

24:46.570 --> 24:47.531
[SPEAKER_02]: There's no recourse.

24:47.951 --> 24:49.292
[SPEAKER_02]: In LA, I don't think people know this.

24:49.412 --> 24:52.134
[SPEAKER_02]: We don't have cameras in the red light.

24:52.154 --> 24:53.475
[SPEAKER_02]: So we don't have red light cameras.

24:53.835 --> 24:59.719
[SPEAKER_02]: I know they said they were going to roll them out and Lord I pray they do because this is like terribly unsafe place.

25:00.340 --> 25:01.481
[SPEAKER_02]: And there we have our own laws.

25:01.881 --> 25:04.283
[SPEAKER_02]: Like if you, if it's rush hour, it's okay.

25:04.443 --> 25:08.786
[SPEAKER_02]: If it's a regular hour and the like turns red, two people get to take a left.

25:08.886 --> 25:09.907
[SPEAKER_02]: Like that's culture here.

25:10.207 --> 25:13.390
[SPEAKER_02]: But if it's rush hour three people will be taking a left and you better pause for them.

25:13.430 --> 25:18.233
[SPEAKER_02]: Like there's just, there's like unofficial DMV rules specifically in California that we just all abide by.

25:18.574 --> 25:20.515
[SPEAKER_02]: And people drive like GD maniacs.

25:20.755 --> 25:22.997
[SPEAKER_02]: And being home, it was like, oh my god, everyone obeys the rules.

25:23.337 --> 25:24.038
[SPEAKER_02]: Everyone pauses the rules.

25:24.118 --> 25:26.280
[SPEAKER_02]: And like if they did it, it was just then being slow.

25:26.520 --> 25:27.140
[SPEAKER_02]: That was it.

25:27.541 --> 25:28.161
[SPEAKER_02]: It was lovely.

25:28.562 --> 25:30.463
[SPEAKER_02]: It was really, it was really lovely to drive there.

25:31.104 --> 25:31.884
[SPEAKER_02]: But we had a great time.

25:31.964 --> 25:32.985
[SPEAKER_02]: It was a really nice visit.

25:33.065 --> 25:35.127
[SPEAKER_02]: Pearl keeps asking to go back to Nana's house.

25:35.227 --> 25:35.667
[SPEAKER_02]: I know mom.

25:35.727 --> 25:37.148
[SPEAKER_02]: But I'm not coming back and winter is so cold.

25:37.829 --> 25:38.670
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, it was great.

25:39.390 --> 25:43.713
[SPEAKER_02]: As really great at seeing my grandma, it was, um, it's her, oh my gosh, 96 birthday this month.

25:44.093 --> 25:47.455
[SPEAKER_02]: So 96, I think 95 is last year in the big one, 96.

25:47.495 --> 25:47.876
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

25:47.896 --> 25:49.016
[SPEAKER_02]: I always say, how old are you?

25:49.136 --> 25:49.256
[SPEAKER_02]: 21?

25:49.337 --> 25:50.537
[SPEAKER_02]: So I had this hard for me to keep it back.

25:50.878 --> 25:51.838
[SPEAKER_02]: But it was lovely to see her.

25:51.858 --> 25:52.879
[SPEAKER_02]: It was lovely to do everything.

25:53.599 --> 25:56.281
[SPEAKER_02]: And then we went to New York City, which was nice.

25:56.981 --> 25:58.903
[SPEAKER_02]: Pearls meant most of the time playing with her cousins.

25:59.423 --> 26:00.784
[SPEAKER_02]: She went to camp.

26:01.284 --> 26:10.347
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, uh, friend of the pond from way way back camp has a blueie experience that Michael does Disney, who you also felt like I just got to hang out with Michael in this place I got to see Michael's home off Disney turf.

26:10.367 --> 26:11.087
[SPEAKER_02]: It was lovely.

26:11.107 --> 26:12.348
[SPEAKER_02]: I got to see me the whole fan.

26:12.368 --> 26:14.108
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I'm not Matthew, but like see the whole family.

26:14.128 --> 26:14.489
[SPEAKER_02]: It was great.

26:15.129 --> 26:19.270
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, anyway, in New York, we went to camp, uh, Perl into the going back a few days later.

26:19.290 --> 26:22.551
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, and we miss all blueie and bingo and played around.

26:22.631 --> 26:23.151
[SPEAKER_02]: It was great.

26:23.171 --> 26:24.672
[SPEAKER_02]: It was also really nice to meet blueie

26:25.292 --> 26:29.535
[SPEAKER_02]: Not at like the when we met them at the media event for cool consumer.

26:29.596 --> 26:33.398
[SPEAKER_02]: It was like a dance party and so it was like Oh, it was just like everyone trying to meet them at once.

26:33.458 --> 26:37.762
[SPEAKER_02]: This was a very much like get-in-line and meet them Mean and greed, which they do not have a Disney world.

26:37.782 --> 26:42.886
[SPEAKER_02]: It was very cool Michael tips me off to that shout out to Michael Which was really fun.

26:42.906 --> 26:47.269
[SPEAKER_02]: I Left the house in the rain like truly just like I was like I got to do it.

26:47.329 --> 26:48.250
[SPEAKER_02]: I went to Joe coffee.

26:48.350 --> 26:49.110
[SPEAKER_02]: It was so nice

26:49.911 --> 26:52.033
[SPEAKER_02]: Jonathan, who runs show coffee is such a peach.

26:52.393 --> 26:53.854
[SPEAKER_02]: He is a Disney fan for life.

26:54.134 --> 26:56.256
[SPEAKER_02]: He is one of runs a wonderful company.

26:56.336 --> 26:59.919
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I truly, everyone who works there that I've met is wonderful.

27:00.640 --> 27:06.024
[SPEAKER_02]: I also shot him to Jonathan because I, I was, I texted him and was like, I wish I could hang out.

27:06.224 --> 27:09.987
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like fully in family time, but I am leaving the house right now, specifically to go to Joe.

27:10.307 --> 27:16.249
[SPEAKER_02]: because when I lived in New York and lived in the West Village like years ago, it was very different when it was now.

27:16.749 --> 27:25.232
[SPEAKER_02]: I lived in the West Village, and I would go to Jokofi all the time, and I didn't know Jonathan at the time, and then my friend Sierra introduced us, and now we're friends, and I love Jonathan Runs Jo, very cool.

27:26.193 --> 27:29.714
[SPEAKER_02]: If you're ever in New York, try Jokofi, and just know that there's a bit of Disney spirit in there.

27:30.414 --> 27:35.703
[SPEAKER_02]: Jonathan flagged to the manager or someone and he's like, are you Carly and like, yeah, this is why.

27:35.723 --> 27:38.367
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, he's like Jonathan says you have to try our cold foam.

27:38.607 --> 27:41.952
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, not trying to not have a lot of sugar or my stomach's been bad or whatever.

27:42.634 --> 27:43.936
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, and I'm like, okay, fine.

27:44.376 --> 27:44.737
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll try it.

27:44.777 --> 27:45.438
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll try the cold foam.

27:45.558 --> 27:46.539
[SPEAKER_02]: And he told me what's in it.

27:46.639 --> 27:48.520
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if I'm allowed to say anything.

27:48.540 --> 27:49.621
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.

27:49.761 --> 27:52.923
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's a little different from standard cold phone because it's not made with heavy whipping cream.

27:52.963 --> 27:59.688
[SPEAKER_02]: If you've been following my cold phone journey, you know that the reason I don't like Starbucks cold phone really is because it's heavy whipping cream.

27:59.708 --> 28:00.948
[SPEAKER_02]: And I don't want whipped cream.

28:01.529 --> 28:03.530
[SPEAKER_02]: The original magic of it was a skin milk.

28:03.870 --> 28:04.771
[SPEAKER_02]: And this is different.

28:04.871 --> 28:08.234
[SPEAKER_02]: This is different than the whipping cream, and it was very, very good.

28:08.314 --> 28:11.157
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm so glad that I made a call was put in for me to try it.

28:11.177 --> 28:11.737
[SPEAKER_02]: It was wonderful.

28:12.237 --> 28:12.878
[SPEAKER_02]: And thank you again.

28:12.918 --> 28:14.259
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, go to talk hobby, go to talk hobby.

28:15.680 --> 28:16.902
[SPEAKER_02]: What else did I do in New York City?

28:16.922 --> 28:19.083
[SPEAKER_02]: I've been posting slideshows, which has been really helpful.

28:19.864 --> 28:21.345
[SPEAKER_02]: For me, like, remember, even what I did.

28:21.365 --> 28:24.428
[SPEAKER_02]: I went to dance body, my favorite workout studio.

28:24.468 --> 28:27.130
[SPEAKER_02]: I also went to the limit, which is a place I really wanted to try.

28:27.211 --> 28:28.552
[SPEAKER_02]: It's Jennifer Garner's trainer.

28:29.052 --> 28:30.733
[SPEAKER_02]: I would go to Jennifer Garner's trainer.

28:31.073 --> 28:33.875
[SPEAKER_02]: She does a lot of like plyo stuff where you jump on boxes.

28:33.915 --> 28:35.456
[SPEAKER_02]: This was just a dance cardio class.

28:35.556 --> 28:38.177
[SPEAKER_02]: I was hung over for one beer and barely survived.

28:38.277 --> 28:41.259
[SPEAKER_02]: Truly barely survives, but I did, I think I did okay job, I kept up.

28:41.279 --> 28:43.220
[SPEAKER_02]: I did all the moves, I think I did okay for a timer.

28:43.660 --> 28:48.383
[SPEAKER_02]: I went to dance body, truly cannot recommend dance body enough, perfect workout, fantastic instructor.

28:49.363 --> 28:53.306
[SPEAKER_02]: I was talking to her after class because I go literally once a year and then I do it at home digitally.

28:53.766 --> 28:57.268
[SPEAKER_02]: And so I'm just like, how long have you been taking dance body when I was talking to Katia, the founder?

28:57.648 --> 29:00.993
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, I think between 10 and 15 years.

29:01.114 --> 29:04.359
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I've been doing this workout for 10 to 15 years and it's still hard.

29:04.599 --> 29:06.021
[SPEAKER_02]: So dance body forever.

29:06.549 --> 29:08.350
[SPEAKER_02]: There's money forever, I love it so much, I love it so much.

29:09.331 --> 29:19.719
[SPEAKER_02]: What else, I mean, the thing that I'm really here to talk about is Masquerade, Masquerade, which was absolutely wild.

29:19.899 --> 29:22.821
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna tell you all about it right after this break.

29:40.218 --> 29:40.778
[SPEAKER_02]: Welcome back.

29:41.279 --> 29:48.265
[SPEAKER_02]: We're talking masquerade because I had one free night in New York City and my best friend Claire lives in New York.

29:48.325 --> 29:50.487
[SPEAKER_02]: We've been feeder kids in high school together.

29:50.727 --> 29:56.232
[SPEAKER_02]: She was like we got to be doing masquerade and we did and I am so excited to tell you about it.

29:56.492 --> 30:03.440
[SPEAKER_02]: Now, masquerade has been sold to me and the masses is like an immersive theater retelling of Phantom of the Opera.

30:03.720 --> 30:13.471
[SPEAKER_02]: And if you've done sleep no more, which I think many of us have as people who are into themed entertainment and immersive spaces and design and things like that, I was expecting this to be sleep no more.

30:13.611 --> 30:14.552
[SPEAKER_02]: And it was not.

30:14.973 --> 30:15.673
[SPEAKER_02]: It was not at all.

30:15.954 --> 30:17.335
[SPEAKER_02]: Now, I want to let you know, there will be

30:18.465 --> 30:32.519
[SPEAKER_02]: next to no spoilers in one I'm about to say I'm going to be very very very deliberate and not describe anything actually I'm going to say no spoilers because I went in no spoilers and I do think that's the way to go but there are things I wish I was told about that I'm going to tell you about now.

30:33.520 --> 30:47.175
[SPEAKER_02]: So I envision this as being like a sleep no more and if you've done sleep no more, you know that like that is basically a show that is broken open and deconstructed and you're running from room to room and like you're leaving your friends and it's just like you know you like follow it's like it's um

30:56.304 --> 31:00.026
[SPEAKER_02]: Fortune Fortune Fortune favors the poll something like that.

31:00.126 --> 31:16.075
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, we're good So it's like if you just like make a choice and go you are rewarded in sleep no more So I showed up to masquerade this immersive Fan with the opera show non-descript no sign on the door around the corner for my husband's office on 57th like not in the theater district truly mid-town

31:16.595 --> 31:20.358
[SPEAKER_02]: Truly Midtown used to be an arts and craft store that is not a spoiler.

31:20.558 --> 31:25.382
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, that's literally like that's what the building used to be I have bots up there so I'm my friend Claire and we got there.

31:25.402 --> 31:31.627
[SPEAKER_02]: We're like, oh my god, it's this place blue our minds as and as you were as like former New Yorker and her current New Yorker blue our minds

31:32.288 --> 31:37.870
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, I think I wasted the first 20 minutes of it in the wrong headspace, and so I want to protect anyone from that.

31:37.910 --> 31:39.231
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll also tell you what happened.

31:40.191 --> 31:42.672
[SPEAKER_02]: I was anticipating this to be like, I was I was ready.

31:42.832 --> 31:43.052
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

31:43.092 --> 31:46.734
[SPEAKER_02]: I was texting my friend's staff photos like different sneakers than I should wear because there was a dress code.

31:46.754 --> 31:49.995
[SPEAKER_02]: You have to wear black or white or silver and you can't wear stiletto.

31:50.015 --> 31:52.096
[SPEAKER_02]: So I was like baby, I'm ready to run boom.

31:52.456 --> 31:55.217
[SPEAKER_02]: And so I was very deliberate about wearing flats.

31:55.277 --> 31:56.558
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, I stretched before.

31:56.858 --> 31:58.839
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought I was going to be like running up and down staircases.

31:59.219 --> 32:00.740
[SPEAKER_02]: that is not what happens here.

32:01.300 --> 32:10.824
[SPEAKER_02]: It is an immersive retelling of the fan with the Opera, but the immersion part isn't you running from room to room trying to catch up, trying to like follow a thread and see where it goes.

32:11.124 --> 32:15.265
[SPEAKER_02]: It is very much a show that moves through space and you follow it.

32:15.565 --> 32:20.307
[SPEAKER_02]: There was no kind of, there was no rushing, and it was any rushing, it was like to get to the next scene.

32:20.607 --> 32:25.729
[SPEAKER_02]: There was no, it just like I envisioned the wrong thing and it took a

32:27.530 --> 32:38.259
[SPEAKER_02]: It took a little bit from me to understand what was going on because it's essentially as though you are on stage at the pan of the opera and the story is being retold throughout an entire building structure.

32:38.720 --> 32:45.125
[SPEAKER_02]: It is so unbelievable and the reason it's so unbelievable to me is for two reasons.

32:45.526 --> 32:46.467
[SPEAKER_02]: One logistics.

32:47.167 --> 32:55.349
[SPEAKER_02]: we moved through this entire experience and we couldn't believe that when we did a little research later, we found out that they do this six times a night.

32:55.709 --> 33:01.670
[SPEAKER_02]: They call it pulses, so there's six different casts, and I think they're pulsed every 15 minutes.

33:01.951 --> 33:11.553
[SPEAKER_02]: So somehow even though we moved, oh my god, we must have moved rooms, spaces, areas, 20 to 30 times, we didn't run into anybody else, and paths never crossed.

33:11.573 --> 33:13.473
[SPEAKER_02]: Like the timing of this is wild.

33:13.513 --> 33:14.573
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's not really a spoiler because

33:17.094 --> 33:18.075
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not telling you about anything.

33:18.095 --> 33:21.077
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, I'm someone who's looking, I'm looking behind the scenes, I'm trying to take a peek.

33:21.397 --> 33:23.738
[SPEAKER_02]: I look through sometimes an actual run through door and I take a little peek.

33:24.018 --> 33:30.062
[SPEAKER_02]: There were so many stage managers, stage hands people with headsets, like there were so many people in place to make this thing work.

33:30.262 --> 33:32.464
[SPEAKER_02]: I have no idea logistically how they did it.

33:32.604 --> 33:33.564
[SPEAKER_02]: I've absolutely no idea.

33:33.824 --> 33:42.730
[SPEAKER_02]: But the real reason this was so incredible to me was the talent, because I went home and I looked up who played our Christine, did, did, did do do do.

33:42.850 --> 33:43.490
[SPEAKER_02]: and looked up Christine.

33:43.770 --> 33:45.611
[SPEAKER_02]: Christine, play Christine on Broadway.

33:45.951 --> 33:48.572
[SPEAKER_02]: This was like the, she was a Christina Broadway.

33:48.752 --> 33:51.593
[SPEAKER_02]: She did fan of the opera on Broadway, full house.

33:52.134 --> 33:57.676
[SPEAKER_02]: Feel like, like, see, like, new York theater, like the whole thing, the great white way is nothing called something like that.

33:58.016 --> 34:00.717
[SPEAKER_02]: She played the role in like the highest.

34:01.377 --> 34:02.317
[SPEAKER_02]: level possible.

34:02.837 --> 34:06.738
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was too feet away from her as she sang.

34:07.178 --> 34:21.762
[SPEAKER_02]: And it got to a point that the singing was so astronomical where near the end of the show, I started to think that they were just playing tracks involving the words, which I'm embarrassed to say, but I've never witnessed that level of voice.

34:22.522 --> 34:35.308
[SPEAKER_02]: So close to me that like in one point the fan of sweat on me the fan of sweat on me because the fan of was right there Like I've never experienced that level of like the like the finest Broadway talent singing a role like this Like Christine died.

34:35.368 --> 34:39.030
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean like I've never heard someone hit notes like that in person.

34:39.210 --> 34:41.231
[SPEAKER_02]: It was It was insane.

34:41.671 --> 34:42.091
[SPEAKER_02]: It was insane.

34:42.151 --> 34:43.752
[SPEAKER_02]: It was like listening to like

34:44.252 --> 34:49.776
[SPEAKER_02]: Like the ultimate cast recording on Spotify only it's live and you're literally next to them.

34:50.056 --> 34:52.137
[SPEAKER_02]: That was so wild to me.

34:52.698 --> 34:55.300
[SPEAKER_02]: But I do think it's not a perfect experience.

34:55.660 --> 35:02.084
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think if you're not down for like going room to room and experiencing it this way, if you don't want to stand for that long, sometimes you're seeing sometimes you're standing.

35:03.005 --> 35:04.306
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that it's not for everyone.

35:04.366 --> 35:06.067
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think it could be for more people.

35:06.367 --> 35:08.529
[SPEAKER_02]: But there are two other issues I have with it.

35:09.110 --> 35:14.948
[SPEAKER_02]: One, an issue I have is I don't know why I'm explaining this like a five paragraph essay when you're trying to fill space in school.

35:16.245 --> 35:17.106
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know why I'm doing that.

35:17.226 --> 35:21.309
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, they need an introductory speech to set the expectation.

35:21.629 --> 35:23.611
[SPEAKER_02]: You show up, again, I thought this was like sleep no more.

35:23.631 --> 35:24.652
[SPEAKER_02]: They give you a little mask.

35:24.772 --> 35:25.412
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm ready to run.

35:25.552 --> 35:26.353
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm ready to run baby.

35:26.653 --> 35:29.436
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like running away from my friend Claire and then I was like, oh, that's not the fun.

35:29.596 --> 35:29.836
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

35:30.156 --> 35:30.376
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

35:30.817 --> 35:32.578
[SPEAKER_02]: They need an intro to set your expectations.

35:32.618 --> 35:38.983
[SPEAKER_02]: They need to tell you just a little bit logistically like, like, if someone waves you along, follow them, we will all move as a group.

35:39.043 --> 35:41.265
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I did not know that's what was going to happen.

35:41.645 --> 35:45.048
[SPEAKER_02]: And I do also think they would have really, really benefited benefited.

35:45.308 --> 36:02.316
[SPEAKER_02]: from letting people know verbally before we begin, that there is a bit of audience participation, like you may be asked to do something, you may be asked to move somewhere, you may be directed to stand in a certain location, things like that, if they explained it to us at the beginning, I think would have made for a much, much better experience.

36:02.636 --> 36:05.517
[SPEAKER_02]: because there were times when they'd be telling us to move and we'd be like, where?

36:05.537 --> 36:06.338
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, we don't know what's happening.

36:06.358 --> 36:07.818
[SPEAKER_02]: We didn't expect to be in this room.

36:07.838 --> 36:08.859
[SPEAKER_02]: We didn't expect to be in this space.

36:09.179 --> 36:12.000
[SPEAKER_02]: We didn't expect, like, we just walked in and then they're like, go stand here.

36:12.020 --> 36:15.601
[SPEAKER_02]: We didn't know, and there was places where they didn't direct you where to go.

36:15.621 --> 36:16.862
[SPEAKER_02]: And it was very helpful.

36:16.942 --> 36:18.002
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that was very helpful.

36:19.103 --> 36:25.966
[SPEAKER_02]: And then the other complaint I have is that while it was fantastic, I do think the prop styling left a little bit to the imagination.

36:27.366 --> 36:31.690
[SPEAKER_02]: It couldn't use more set design and I think the set design was good.

36:31.870 --> 36:36.955
[SPEAKER_02]: It was better in some places than others, but I do think they could have done a little bit more there.

36:37.436 --> 36:42.360
[SPEAKER_02]: Otherwise, like the costuming, the talent, the way they staged it, incredible.

36:43.181 --> 36:43.541
[SPEAKER_02]: Incredible.

36:43.581 --> 36:45.702
[SPEAKER_02]: If you have a chance to see this, if you're into Phantom, you should see it.

36:45.742 --> 36:56.926
[SPEAKER_02]: If you're not into Phantom, even though it is totally different from sitting in the audience and watching Phantom, it's essentially the entire story of Phantom with the Opera, so you're going to be attending an entire musical that you do not care about.

36:58.146 --> 36:59.067
[SPEAKER_02]: So that might not be for you.

36:59.827 --> 37:01.147
[SPEAKER_02]: But I loved it.

37:01.788 --> 37:02.708
[SPEAKER_02]: I loved it.

37:03.348 --> 37:03.908
[SPEAKER_02]: And it was wild.

37:04.308 --> 37:05.289
[SPEAKER_02]: That's all I'm going to say.

37:05.369 --> 37:05.849
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, there is one

37:11.991 --> 37:13.532
[SPEAKER_02]: We're in a group of like 40 people.

37:13.792 --> 37:14.713
[SPEAKER_02]: We're wearing masks.

37:15.033 --> 37:16.034
[SPEAKER_02]: We got recognized.

37:16.234 --> 37:17.635
[SPEAKER_02]: And like, I got clocked in a way.

37:17.675 --> 37:18.796
[SPEAKER_02]: I did not anticipate.

37:19.336 --> 37:20.217
[SPEAKER_02]: I went to the bathroom.

37:20.237 --> 37:20.977
[SPEAKER_02]: We went to the bathroom.

37:21.237 --> 37:23.158
[SPEAKER_02]: If you have to go to the bathroom during this, I don't know what you do.

37:23.599 --> 37:24.339
[SPEAKER_02]: I like truly don't.

37:24.379 --> 37:26.621
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure there's a way that they like escort you out and escort you back.

37:26.881 --> 37:29.583
[SPEAKER_02]: But like pee beforehand because, oh, our works.

37:30.123 --> 37:32.845
[SPEAKER_02]: So, um, my friend clarinet went to the bathroom after.

37:32.965 --> 37:35.787
[SPEAKER_02]: And there's this, I'm going to be very vague as to not spoil anything.

37:36.127 --> 37:38.889
[SPEAKER_02]: There, you're in a group, sometimes you're split into smaller groups.

37:38.909 --> 37:43.252
[SPEAKER_02]: There was this one time we were split into smaller groups, where we couldn't believe that what was happening in front of us.

37:43.712 --> 37:46.454
[SPEAKER_02]: And so, these other two people were like, oh, what happened?

37:46.574 --> 37:50.516
[SPEAKER_02]: They asked a question to us about it, and then we asked a question, we were like, oh, okay, maybe that's how they did it.

37:50.876 --> 37:53.278
[SPEAKER_02]: We all, oh, sorry, my watch alarm went off.

37:53.678 --> 37:55.739
[SPEAKER_02]: So we all go to the bathroom, we come back.

37:55.839 --> 37:57.700
[SPEAKER_02]: We end up striking up a conversation with these two people.

37:58.401 --> 38:01.542
[SPEAKER_02]: One of them is like, oh, I did set design and college.

38:01.562 --> 38:03.263
[SPEAKER_02]: And now I do, I forget exactly what they said.

38:03.884 --> 38:08.907
[SPEAKER_02]: Interior, or set or prop painting.

38:08.967 --> 38:09.727
[SPEAKER_02]: I forgot what that would be.

38:10.287 --> 38:11.488
[SPEAKER_02]: I forget the exact top title they do.

38:11.668 --> 38:13.829
[SPEAKER_02]: They're like, oh, I live in Orlando.

38:13.849 --> 38:14.510
[SPEAKER_02]: I work with the theme park.

38:14.530 --> 38:16.151
[SPEAKER_02]: So I was like, oh, I'm a theme park reporter.

38:16.371 --> 38:18.232
[SPEAKER_02]: And they were basically like, we know.

38:19.978 --> 38:20.939
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, what do I mean?

38:21.579 --> 38:23.561
[SPEAKER_02]: And they're like, we thought we were like, is that curly?

38:23.581 --> 38:24.402
[SPEAKER_02]: It might be curly.

38:24.862 --> 38:26.764
[SPEAKER_02]: And I got clapped.

38:27.004 --> 38:27.685
[SPEAKER_02]: Wearing a mask?

38:27.965 --> 38:30.307
[SPEAKER_02]: It mask green got clapped, got spotted, got spotted.

38:30.428 --> 38:31.809
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know how that happened to theme purple.

38:31.849 --> 38:32.630
[SPEAKER_02]: It was so small.

38:32.910 --> 38:34.932
[SPEAKER_02]: And I loved it so much, because we ended talking.

38:35.072 --> 38:37.714
[SPEAKER_02]: Claire had just gotten off a plane from France.

38:37.734 --> 38:38.675
[SPEAKER_02]: She was an Amsterdam in the France.

38:39.176 --> 38:41.358
[SPEAKER_02]: Claire was like, I am so jet-like, they need to go home immediately.

38:41.378 --> 38:42.699
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I ended up just gabbing.

38:43.179 --> 39:05.007
[SPEAKER_02]: with these people for 10 or 15 minutes because it was so lovely it was like oh my gosh we all like enjoy the same things in the way we had the same perspective of being absolutely blown away by what they've done here it was so nice to connect with them I don't even catch their names um I don't think they listen to the podcast I don't even know if they follow me but it was just so nice um it was just like the lovelyest encounter after the most bizarre experience to be like

39:05.367 --> 39:29.795
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh we're all one community like we found our community at the end of Masquerade in the middle of New York City and that I think is the power of theme parks I think loving theme parks makes the entire world's York community it kind of makes the entire world your third place When you're third place is the most Traffic busy tourist destination in the country you can connect with anyone and I've always said like when I came into this job I was not a Disney person

39:29.935 --> 39:31.136
[SPEAKER_02]: I came in from the outside in.

39:31.176 --> 39:38.363
[SPEAKER_02]: So I still retain kind of like this split life where I know what it's like to not be a Disney fan and to be planning a trip.

39:38.403 --> 39:40.225
[SPEAKER_02]: And I know it's like to be a Disney fan and planning a trip.

39:40.245 --> 39:43.428
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's kind of my superpower and what I do for my job.

39:43.448 --> 39:48.794
[SPEAKER_02]: And I've always said like one of the best parts of being a Disney person is that you can go to a wedding with strangers.

39:49.114 --> 39:51.817
[SPEAKER_02]: And there's gonna be someone there who you're gonna end up talking about.

39:52.357 --> 40:08.137
[SPEAKER_02]: Serentoga Springs or DVC with like there's always someone who shares an interest with you and I guess that's maybe why people like sports I mean ask battle and I don't know, but it was really it's really really lovely that you can always connect with people in the randomest Deplaces overthane parks and it was so nice to be in this like

40:08.477 --> 40:13.823
[SPEAKER_02]: Brilliant, imaginative theatrical location and be like, oh, we're all into the same thing.

40:13.903 --> 40:14.924
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay cool cool cool cool cool cool.

40:15.164 --> 40:17.086
[SPEAKER_02]: It was just it was just absolutely lovely.

40:17.106 --> 40:17.807
[SPEAKER_02]: It was such a great time.

40:17.847 --> 40:25.555
[SPEAKER_02]: And if you weren't all a Phantom person, I highly recommend it was like the honestly hearing hearing these people singing in real life blue my mind blue my mind.

40:26.311 --> 40:40.157
[SPEAKER_02]: Look, I've never, I've never heard someone sing a note that high, that perfectly in front of me and not be on a stage and not be like so far away that it feels like a show, like it just felt like we were chilling and she was singing, it was bananas.

40:40.458 --> 40:40.998
[SPEAKER_02]: It was bananas!

40:41.878 --> 40:44.299
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, next up, the tireless pursuit of feeling good all the time.

40:44.319 --> 40:45.239
[SPEAKER_02]: My body's a huge mess.

40:45.259 --> 40:46.139
[SPEAKER_02]: We don't have to get into it.

40:46.599 --> 40:47.380
[SPEAKER_02]: We don't have to get into it.

40:47.780 --> 40:49.520
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I, nobody knows what's wrong.

40:49.760 --> 40:54.962
[SPEAKER_02]: I have, I'm thinking suspicion that all of my health issues are caused by parental anxiety, not from mom.

40:55.022 --> 40:55.262
[SPEAKER_02]: Hi mom.

40:55.562 --> 41:03.704
[SPEAKER_02]: Now for my mom, but like for me, like, you know, having a toddler and ADHD, and it just being like, I think I'm just my body's like, and I think that's why everything is failing.

41:03.804 --> 41:05.746
[SPEAKER_02]: Honestly, like my blood works fine, everything's normal.

41:05.846 --> 41:07.227
[SPEAKER_02]: I keep getting tests everything's normal.

41:07.347 --> 41:10.990
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's the only explanation at this point So I'm going to start doing acupuncture.

41:11.070 --> 41:12.971
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to start doing like every single thing.

41:12.991 --> 41:18.116
[SPEAKER_02]: I can think of to try to fix it Because everything feels like out of alignment also.

41:18.516 --> 41:19.617
[SPEAKER_02]: I realize lately that

41:19.997 --> 41:23.962
[SPEAKER_02]: Like every like my body just hurts and I think it's me as I'm tipped forward.

41:24.183 --> 41:30.331
[SPEAKER_02]: You know like mystery spot You know miss for spot where you see those ads and they're like whoa I'm doing it in person even though you can't see me because I forgot to film this.

41:30.411 --> 41:37.581
[SPEAKER_02]: Oops was gonna film it and I didn't Okay, watch quiet Anyway, hold on let me quiet down my apple watch

41:38.384 --> 41:41.765
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, there's mystery spot ads with the person's like, wow, like, you can't see me.

41:41.785 --> 41:42.445
[SPEAKER_02]: Why am I still doing it?

41:43.005 --> 41:46.506
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, they're like pitched forward and it's like, oh my gosh, standing up straight, how could they be leaning like that?

41:46.826 --> 41:48.066
[SPEAKER_02]: That's why I've been doing all the time.

41:48.146 --> 41:49.566
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like leaning forward.

41:49.826 --> 41:55.227
[SPEAKER_02]: So like my hips down are so uncomfortable and I need to put time into fix it and I never do.

41:55.268 --> 41:56.368
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think I'm actually going to start.

41:56.768 --> 42:02.209
[SPEAKER_02]: I think I'm actually going to start because I am coming to you today on the eve of what is a mother's dream.

42:02.529 --> 42:04.851
[SPEAKER_02]: or really an any adult human's dream.

42:05.631 --> 42:09.954
[SPEAKER_02]: I am going to sit my butt in a hotel and I'm not gonna move.

42:10.374 --> 42:14.677
[SPEAKER_02]: For Mother's Day, I asked for a two night hotel stay, not one night.

42:14.697 --> 42:23.783
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh

42:29.927 --> 42:33.350
[SPEAKER_01]: They're going to lay in bed, get room service, watch TV, watch a movie, and relax.

42:33.690 --> 42:34.591
[SPEAKER_02]: That is not what I'm doing.

42:34.972 --> 42:43.119
[SPEAKER_02]: I am going to have about four to five cappuccinos a day, and I'm going to do all the work that gets interrupted during the year, living down the hall from a toddler.

42:43.139 --> 42:44.000
[SPEAKER_02]: I am so excited.

42:44.080 --> 42:47.283
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to do, I have like a whole to-do list I've saved for this special event.

42:47.783 --> 42:48.903
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm afraid, okay?

42:49.544 --> 42:51.364
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to be there dipping in the pool and lounging.

42:51.384 --> 42:53.325
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe for 30 minutes just to be like, I did it.

42:53.685 --> 43:00.107
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I want to be like, hold up in a room like I'm in detention and I cannot rate to get so many things done.

43:00.547 --> 43:10.271
[SPEAKER_02]: I am determined to actually do the things I have to do, but also hopefully kind of set up, I don't know, like a schedule or an itinerary so that when I come back refreshed, I pray.

43:10.291 --> 43:13.892
[SPEAKER_02]: I can actually find a way to like do the stretches I'm supposed to do.

43:13.952 --> 43:16.973
[SPEAKER_02]: Do the things I need to do to like keep myself going.

43:17.533 --> 43:25.383
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm in this position now where I feel like I'm constantly trying to find ways to be my own personal assistant.

43:25.483 --> 43:28.727
[SPEAKER_02]: And when I do, it just makes everything work better.

43:28.747 --> 43:32.191
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like all the cogs in the wheel are moving correctly when I do that.

43:32.212 --> 43:33.753
[SPEAKER_02]: When I set myself up for success.

43:34.214 --> 43:34.354
[SPEAKER_02]: Like,

43:35.155 --> 43:50.307
[SPEAKER_02]: If I wake up in the morning and I get in the car and like, oh, the bags already passed everything's good like I already like adjusted I set up the car see like I did everything I needed to do it's so delightful and it's so like warming it's just nice to be like, oh, all of me took your future me I keep

43:50.787 --> 43:56.129
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't really like putting plans in place even if they're really small and dumb just when I never have to make decisions in the moment.

43:56.149 --> 43:57.969
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm trying to alleviate future stress.

43:58.389 --> 44:10.553
[SPEAKER_02]: Like in Chicago when I was there I would decide when I went to bad I was like, okay, I'm gonna wake up at this time and I'm gonna leave at this time and now we'll give me an hour at the coffee shop before I come home to do stuff And like packing my bags and I before setting up my purse like

44:11.473 --> 44:15.855
[SPEAKER_02]: Even like social media posts, I've been putting the photos that I need to put in a carousel in an album.

44:15.915 --> 44:16.956
[SPEAKER_02]: So I don't have to scoot through.

44:17.016 --> 44:19.938
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just like when I go to post and I'm like, ah, my personal assistant did that.

44:20.038 --> 44:22.599
[SPEAKER_02]: But the personal assistant is me.

44:22.619 --> 44:28.382
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, even refining the way I pack because you know packing is a disaster for me.

44:28.402 --> 44:30.003
[SPEAKER_02]: It is no good.

44:30.383 --> 44:33.024
[SPEAKER_02]: And over the weekend, I reorganized my airplane bag.

44:33.044 --> 44:36.685
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a little bag that I keep, and read all my little essentials in when I'm on an airplane.

44:37.165 --> 44:40.526
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, everything from like hand cream to earplugs, just everything I need.

44:40.586 --> 44:42.307
[SPEAKER_02]: And then I put that in a box with the backups.

44:42.587 --> 44:44.027
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's like I have the wet ones wipes.

44:44.067 --> 44:47.308
[SPEAKER_02]: I have the antibacterial wipes because I'd be wiping down everything in a plane.

44:47.528 --> 44:48.509
[SPEAKER_02]: Plains are disgusting.

44:49.069 --> 44:52.270
[SPEAKER_02]: I wipe it all down like I have the all the clean eggs that I bring on the plane because of his nasal spray.

44:52.290 --> 44:53.110
[SPEAKER_02]: So I always have to use clean eggs.

44:53.330 --> 44:58.872
[SPEAKER_02]: I have like everything in there, and it's just in a box, so now if I need it, it's a multiplication, and it has given me so much ease.

44:58.912 --> 45:01.573
[SPEAKER_02]: I reorganized my medicine cabinet thing.

45:01.613 --> 45:09.855
[SPEAKER_02]: I reorganized my medicine bag that I bring with me whenever I travel, just having like less things to choose from and everything set up for success has been so nice.

45:10.135 --> 45:12.256
[SPEAKER_02]: Because my ideal version of travel is not

45:12.936 --> 45:18.780
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, bringing one sunscreen and one shampoo and calling it a day, I want a miniature buffet of all my items ready to go.

45:18.860 --> 45:20.881
[SPEAKER_02]: And I've been trying and leaning towards this for a while.

45:21.001 --> 45:24.143
[SPEAKER_02]: I used to buy beauty products and then get all the samples and organize the samples.

45:24.183 --> 45:25.084
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought that was the way to go.

45:25.144 --> 45:29.826
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, oh, if I'm packing a grab and I grab a little eye cream and a little moisturizer and a little this.

45:30.307 --> 45:33.489
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I'm realizing it is having one of each item.

45:33.709 --> 45:35.210
[SPEAKER_02]: A lot of I use cadence capsules.

45:35.250 --> 45:35.950
[SPEAKER_02]: Those are refillable.

45:35.970 --> 45:36.831
[SPEAKER_02]: That has helped me a lot.

45:37.231 --> 45:39.693
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's kind of like having everything ready to go.

45:40.573 --> 45:45.716
[SPEAKER_02]: tiny stain remover, a teeny tiny this, packed, sealed, done, like everything needs to be refillable.

45:45.796 --> 45:52.999
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not holding onto minis, I want to have as little amount of stuff as possible while also making sure I am prepared for whatever I need when I am awake.

45:53.219 --> 45:57.802
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just a thing that I'm hyper fixated on right now, and I'm very, very close because I need less stuff.

45:57.962 --> 46:01.804
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm trying to have less stuff, I cleaned out a bunch of stuff in my bathroom cabinet.

46:02.184 --> 46:04.805
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm now down to my bare bones make up, and it's nice.

46:05.205 --> 46:08.207
[SPEAKER_02]: It's nice to not be like this mascara, or this mascara, or this mascara.

46:08.407 --> 46:15.471
[SPEAKER_02]: Just grabbing one mascara, grabbing one eyeshadow palette, it is, oh, it's like a weight lifted off my shoulders, and I'm so delighted about it.

46:15.971 --> 46:25.977
[SPEAKER_02]: Wait, but speaking of airplane back, I don't, I don't know how many people saw this, but Simone Biles just posted, like, a What's in my bag of her airplane bag, which by the way, was a Birkin, and in the comments, she was, she's adorable.

46:26.077 --> 46:26.898
[SPEAKER_02]: I love Simone Biles.

46:27.278 --> 46:30.060
[SPEAKER_02]: Someone was like, oh my god, that would be so good for work.

46:30.100 --> 46:30.560
[SPEAKER_01]: What is it?

46:30.640 --> 46:34.182
[SPEAKER_02]: And she was like, it's a Birkin, and then did like the, I think it was like the hands over the eyes, like,

46:35.195 --> 46:37.136
[SPEAKER_02]: We're just funny because Burkins are like, like $40,000.

46:37.156 --> 46:38.196
[SPEAKER_02]: There's so much money.

46:38.276 --> 46:39.056
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, she deserves it.

46:39.096 --> 46:39.836
[SPEAKER_02]: She deserves the world.

46:40.176 --> 46:42.177
[SPEAKER_02]: But she had her Burkin bag.

46:42.477 --> 46:43.717
[SPEAKER_02]: And she was like, here's what's in my bag.

46:43.817 --> 46:47.058
[SPEAKER_02]: And it seemed like her airplane bag, which was all of her stuff for the flight.

46:47.699 --> 46:52.540
[SPEAKER_02]: She was just carrying it around the city, like, oh, her city bag was her airplane bag.

46:53.000 --> 46:53.941
[SPEAKER_02]: Which I have never done.

46:54.041 --> 46:56.203
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know where the heck her laptop was.

46:56.223 --> 46:57.183
[SPEAKER_02]: I guess she's not in the laptop.

46:57.203 --> 46:58.164
[SPEAKER_02]: She's probably only on a phone.

46:58.625 --> 47:04.669
[SPEAKER_02]: She probably doesn't do laptop, but like, I've never thought about using a city bag on an airplane as my airplane bag.

47:04.790 --> 47:09.533
[SPEAKER_02]: I know for some people like me this is revolutionary, but I have like, oh, I have like a backpack if I need a laptop.

47:09.553 --> 47:12.516
[SPEAKER_02]: I need to, I have like all these different systems of things for travel.

47:12.896 --> 47:15.058
[SPEAKER_02]: It could be as simple as using your everyday bag in the airplane.

47:15.478 --> 47:19.902
[SPEAKER_02]: I did not know that's not how my brain works and it's different for me and it's wild.

47:20.182 --> 47:23.745
[SPEAKER_02]: I also like, I have like a whole germ protocol when I come home from flying.

47:23.785 --> 47:25.207
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh my god, I can't believe I'm talking about this.

47:25.227 --> 47:26.067
[SPEAKER_02]: This is so embarrassing.

47:26.348 --> 47:36.016
[SPEAKER_02]: So when I come home, I either wash or lice all everything and I put a towel out in the backyard and it'll be like the backpack, the purse, all lice all hats, all lice all night.

47:36.116 --> 47:40.140
[SPEAKER_02]: Every day bag, like everything has to be cleaned because everything is so disgusting on planes.

47:40.740 --> 47:41.521
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like,

47:42.041 --> 47:43.182
[SPEAKER_02]: Some of y'all don't think about germs.

47:43.763 --> 47:48.168
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know how some of you are aren't like paralyzed at the thought of germs It I I don't know how I got this.

47:48.308 --> 47:48.568
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, god.

47:48.588 --> 47:49.970
[SPEAKER_01]: This is like the OCD video all again.

47:49.990 --> 47:50.650
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, oh, we're good.

47:50.750 --> 47:51.091
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh my god.

47:51.171 --> 48:02.243
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, so I also haven't shared this, but I'm scrolling through my feed one day I love the dog enjoying my life and this video came up and it was like when you have OCD but you're at Disneyland and I was like, oh, I wonder what that experience is like

48:03.003 --> 48:05.824
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I have said every single thing in the video.

48:06.364 --> 48:14.486
[SPEAKER_02]: I've said every single thing in the video and I don't want to diagnose myself with something serious Like I thought I I mean, I have one I have one neurodivergence.

48:14.506 --> 48:15.167
[SPEAKER_02]: I might have many.

48:15.407 --> 48:23.569
[SPEAKER_02]: There's no limits guys the limit, baby But I was like, oh my god, I've said all this stuff recently in this video and I was like, you know I'm not gonna diagnose myself off of videos.

48:23.589 --> 48:26.370
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just a joke this person's clowning the person is an OCD therapist

48:28.659 --> 48:29.140
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no!

48:29.520 --> 48:34.344
[SPEAKER_01]: So we're gonna go down that path and see how much of that is true, but I really make a lot of sense.

48:34.364 --> 48:41.349
[SPEAKER_02]: I've seen some other ones she's posted and they're not me, but the Disney Land 1 was really, was really me.

48:42.350 --> 48:45.072
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I think that's that's it for the health step.

48:45.092 --> 48:46.053
[SPEAKER_02]: We got to get into stuff.

48:46.133 --> 48:51.017
[SPEAKER_02]: I am currently obsessed with and it's not just Simone Piles' bag, but it it really is.

48:51.717 --> 48:55.240
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, I'm very into those chocolate covered quinoa discs.

48:55.701 --> 48:57.102
[SPEAKER_02]: I fly every airline.

48:57.282 --> 48:58.443
[SPEAKER_02]: Ben is an American Airlines person.

48:58.604 --> 49:00.626
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm all over the place, whatever flight time is best for me.

49:00.666 --> 49:01.506
[SPEAKER_02]: That is what I'm taking.

49:01.807 --> 49:03.228
[SPEAKER_02]: And those are on, I believe you nighted.

49:03.468 --> 49:04.109
[SPEAKER_02]: I've been on so many.

49:04.149 --> 49:06.011
[SPEAKER_02]: I've been on one of every airline this past week, I think.

49:07.072 --> 49:11.296
[SPEAKER_02]: They have those, which is called the undercover, undercover, chocolate, quinoa.

49:11.856 --> 49:14.919
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, undercover chocolate quinoa crisps.

49:14.939 --> 49:16.120
[SPEAKER_02]: I love these freaking things.

49:16.360 --> 49:17.381
[SPEAKER_02]: I tried them on an airplane.

49:17.641 --> 49:19.842
[SPEAKER_02]: Doi is everyone found out about them on an airplane.

49:20.263 --> 49:22.825
[SPEAKER_02]: And I have bought them many times since.

49:23.145 --> 49:24.226
[SPEAKER_02]: And then I got them on the airplane again.

49:24.246 --> 49:25.487
[SPEAKER_02]: It was like, oh, I forgot.

49:25.507 --> 49:26.207
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't have to buy them.

49:26.247 --> 49:26.928
[SPEAKER_02]: And I have ordered them.

49:26.948 --> 49:27.588
[SPEAKER_02]: They were great.

49:27.989 --> 49:32.252
[SPEAKER_02]: But I realized I kind of think less about something because it's free on an airplane.

49:32.652 --> 49:35.755
[SPEAKER_02]: Every time I buy them, I'm like, if I was on United, this would be free.

49:36.115 --> 49:43.378
[SPEAKER_02]: Which is so dumb because the flight, it's not like the barrier to entry on a flight is zero dollars and paying hundreds of dollars to be on a plane And that's my little treat.

49:43.738 --> 49:54.403
[SPEAKER_02]: I wouldn't think less of a food because it's like in a mini bar Like as many bars pay it's a little different, but still like I have a little like I'm like I love them But like, oh, these are free if you're on the plane I don't know why I think less of them.

49:54.443 --> 50:03.087
[SPEAKER_02]: I found out about them on an airplane that shouldn't be bothering me and yet it does and Actually something that should bother me and doesn't is finding out how much that freaking luxury train costs

50:03.287 --> 50:05.768
[SPEAKER_02]: If you follow me on Instagram, you saw my stories, oh my gosh.

50:06.309 --> 50:08.430
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, the Belmond, where's it?

50:08.530 --> 50:12.472
[SPEAKER_02]: V-S-O-E, luxury, this is simple.

50:12.652 --> 50:13.712
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know, I don't know if I was it.

50:13.852 --> 50:17.434
[SPEAKER_02]: They have all these fancy, freaking trains all over your up.

50:17.934 --> 50:20.656
[SPEAKER_02]: And they read it all of them and they are beautiful.

50:20.676 --> 50:22.176
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like golden age of travel vibes.

50:22.537 --> 50:29.140
[SPEAKER_02]: They are so lovely and just to rehash it for those of us who don't watch my stories, huge mistake, big mistake, huge.

50:29.820 --> 50:34.642
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I was like, hmm, for my big birthday next year, I really want to go on the one of these strains.

50:34.722 --> 50:37.183
[SPEAKER_02]: And I never looked up the price because I was like, that's a future problem.

50:37.203 --> 50:38.104
[SPEAKER_02]: I may as well just dream.

50:38.284 --> 50:39.144
[SPEAKER_02]: I may as well just enjoy.

50:40.105 --> 50:42.586
[SPEAKER_02]: And now we're like, you know, we're almost at the end of summer.

50:42.606 --> 50:43.406
[SPEAKER_02]: And this is next summer.

50:43.466 --> 50:44.947
[SPEAKER_02]: So I like kind of have to start thinking about it.

50:45.147 --> 50:47.548
[SPEAKER_02]: And so, um, I was talking to Ben.

50:47.568 --> 50:50.469
[SPEAKER_02]: Because we were having a quick conversation about 20, 20, 7.

50:51.189 --> 50:54.011
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, I do really want to go on that train for my birthday.

50:54.431 --> 50:55.731
[SPEAKER_02]: And he's like, do you know how much I cost?

50:55.972 --> 50:56.972
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm like, I actually don't.

50:57.472 --> 50:58.473
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I never looked it up.

50:59.413 --> 51:00.736
[SPEAKER_02]: And he's like, hold, please.

51:01.117 --> 51:03.162
[SPEAKER_02]: And so he, brah, brah, brah, brah the phone.

51:04.606 --> 51:05.027
[SPEAKER_02]: Types it up.

51:06.424 --> 51:30.058
[SPEAKER_02]: Pricing starts for two people for two little adults pricing starts and $13,000 for one night on luxury train oh but wait there's more that would be for a bunk bed room oh yeah do you sleeping on a train ricketing back and forth on a bunk bed on a top bunk which i love a top bunk not at a five digit price tag even better you share a bathroom with other people

51:30.198 --> 51:36.403
[SPEAKER_02]: Which again, I would be down for, but not at a $13,000 price tag.

51:38.666 --> 51:43.930
[SPEAKER_02]: Not gonna happen, like for $6,500 per person, I need to be able to shower my room.

51:44.010 --> 51:45.311
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's where I'm at for one night.

51:45.371 --> 51:46.172
[SPEAKER_02]: We're not talking a week.

51:46.192 --> 51:47.573
[SPEAKER_02]: We're not talking four days, we're talking one.

51:48.594 --> 51:51.356
[SPEAKER_02]: One night, one single night.

51:51.556 --> 51:53.978
[SPEAKER_02]: So that is out of the question.

51:54.078 --> 52:02.903
[SPEAKER_02]: Also a room with a full, like the rooms you see on Instagram are like, oh, like Anna Kendrick went on this, like they invite celebrities, like the chung went on and I think, because, oh, I love likes a chung.

52:03.744 --> 52:07.086
[SPEAKER_02]: A room with a bed, like a fancy room with a bed, so we were looking at summer 2027.

52:07.126 --> 52:13.570
[SPEAKER_02]: So like, they'm sure in winter it's cheaper, not that much, but a room with like a regular bed, not bunk beds.

52:13.610 --> 52:14.691
[SPEAKER_02]: I think was $25,000 for one night.

52:17.052 --> 52:31.723
[SPEAKER_02]: for one night and I'll tell you obviously I'm not doing that my colleagues one of them which is listening shout out to you you know they were like why don't you try to write about it because like I you know I would probably be pumped that was writing about it and I was like I cannot in good faith right about this

52:32.928 --> 52:34.008
[SPEAKER_02]: Who am I recommending this to?

52:34.188 --> 52:38.050
[SPEAKER_02]: Who am I recommending a $25,000 single night train journey to?

52:38.090 --> 52:41.891
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, do you know how many meals you can provide at a school in need?

52:41.911 --> 52:43.532
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I absolutely not.

52:43.772 --> 52:46.353
[SPEAKER_02]: But the one highlights of never going on this train.

52:46.373 --> 52:52.355
[SPEAKER_02]: They do have day trips, which are priced like a very, very expensive meal, which that is something I can mess with.

52:52.395 --> 52:55.016
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, that's something that I can justify a bit.

52:55.477 --> 52:59.238
[SPEAKER_02]: I do have to translate the money from euros, or whatever, to dollars, see what it actually is.

52:59.318 --> 53:16.450
[SPEAKER_02]: That I can least like like five hours on a train way too much money for five hours on a train, but not $13,000 expensive, like not that level, what it has done has thankfully made me look at luxury hotels different because I was on the other side for a long time being like I remember luxury hotels cost before the pandemic and it is skyrocketed.

53:16.770 --> 53:27.700
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I remember getting a room and like one of Paris's best hotels for like, when my mom and I stayed there, it was like $700 a night and I was like, this is the most insane thing I've ever done to spend this much, but like we're in Paris, it was her birthday.

53:27.720 --> 53:28.581
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, we're gonna do it.

53:28.901 --> 53:31.404
[SPEAKER_02]: That hotel is now probably $2,000 a night.

53:31.444 --> 53:34.406
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm glad I did it before it was crazy bananas expensive.

53:34.587 --> 53:40.052
[SPEAKER_02]: Also $700 is like cheaper than what I'm seeing rooms at yacht club for from the day time was looking at a bookstrip of where?

53:40.702 --> 53:44.964
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I now spend travel, I've got a love, I've found a great rate and that room once I got it was gone.

53:45.124 --> 53:47.805
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's always great to work with the travel agent because they will keep an eye on for you.

53:49.386 --> 53:50.126
[SPEAKER_02]: What was I saying?

53:50.266 --> 53:55.028
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, afterwards I was like, okay, now that my brain has been rewired, knowing that one night on a train is $13,000.

53:55.208 --> 53:57.029
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to see how much like Ritz Paris is.

53:57.369 --> 54:01.011
[SPEAKER_02]: And it looked it up in Ritz Paris was, I think, under $2,000 a night, which is not something I'm going to pay.

54:01.271 --> 54:05.253
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not paying number to money, but it was still funny to be like, oh, okay.

54:06.053 --> 54:07.954
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, like it made me view the world differently.

54:08.315 --> 54:10.576
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, I can't believe people are saying 13,000.

54:10.616 --> 54:12.838
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not spending, I'm not spending $2,000 in a hotel.

54:12.898 --> 54:16.360
[SPEAKER_02]: And if you see me in a luxury hotel, my husband is a points person and we got it on points.

54:16.660 --> 54:23.304
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I'm not, I just don't, if I ever end up with the rich Paris, I don't want you to be like, she, this girl has spent $2,000 in a hotel room and I ain't, she's there for four nights.

54:23.384 --> 54:24.145
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't want you to do the math.

54:24.325 --> 54:25.106
[SPEAKER_02]: We are points people.

54:25.286 --> 54:27.027
[SPEAKER_02]: My husband is an algorithm-brain guy.

54:27.047 --> 54:28.288
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what's happening.

54:28.308 --> 54:29.869
[SPEAKER_02]: There's stuff happening there clearly.

54:30.609 --> 54:41.637
[SPEAKER_02]: I can't in good faith spend a much money on something, also like the AMX, the AMX fine resorts thing, got to use it, got to use it, free breakfast, they upgrade your roof, it's great.

54:41.938 --> 54:48.042
[SPEAKER_02]: But yes, $13,000 for one night on a train in a bunk bed, not something I'm going to do, and I feel really good about that decision.

54:48.462 --> 54:53.726
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel as I posted my line, I'm going to get in a little gritty, and I'm going to send out the Disneyland train, and I'm going to feel $12,995 dollars richer.

54:56.068 --> 55:00.613
[SPEAKER_02]: That is, I feel, I already feel, I feel like, like, girl math, like I made money by not going.

55:00.633 --> 55:08.803
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like, oh, I could have lost all this hypothetical monopoly money, but instead I chose not to and I've money in my pocket and that feels pretty good.

55:09.764 --> 55:12.507
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, things I am watching, okay.

55:12.567 --> 55:14.950
[SPEAKER_02]: So last time we spoke, I was probably still watching Lucifer.

55:15.410 --> 55:16.991
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was watching Widow's Bay.

55:17.011 --> 55:17.872
[SPEAKER_02]: Widow's Bay forever.

55:18.513 --> 55:20.214
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I finished Lucifer.

55:20.354 --> 55:24.378
[SPEAKER_02]: Actually, like standing, the, I thought, um, the final season I thought I was going to go with different directions.

55:24.478 --> 55:25.919
[SPEAKER_02]: I know people had thoughts about the final season.

55:26.019 --> 55:26.720
[SPEAKER_02]: I was pretty happy with it.

55:26.740 --> 55:27.501
[SPEAKER_02]: We got more Lucifer time.

55:27.541 --> 55:27.961
[SPEAKER_02]: It was great.

55:28.802 --> 55:30.723
[SPEAKER_02]: That led me to watch CSI.

55:30.904 --> 55:31.164
[SPEAKER_02]: No.

55:31.844 --> 55:32.485
[SPEAKER_02]: CIA.

55:33.025 --> 55:37.529
[SPEAKER_02]: Too many, too many branches of government of federal, uh, copyage.

55:37.650 --> 55:37.970
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.

55:38.390 --> 55:40.273
[SPEAKER_02]: So lose of her stars in C.I.A.

55:40.353 --> 55:41.194
[SPEAKER_02]: So I started C.I.A.

55:41.234 --> 55:42.936
[SPEAKER_02]: He played just like a vanilla guy.

55:43.257 --> 55:46.882
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like Wayne for the loose for to come out and it's kind of like, can you make this guy fun?

55:46.902 --> 55:49.545
[SPEAKER_02]: Like your other character was fun and he's just playing this one straight.

55:49.826 --> 55:51.288
[SPEAKER_02]: But this shows pretty good.

55:51.908 --> 55:52.429
[SPEAKER_02]: Pretty good.

55:52.669 --> 55:54.191
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a big reveal at the end of the season.

55:54.392 --> 55:55.733
[SPEAKER_02]: I will be tuning in for season two.

55:56.514 --> 56:00.037
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, but it doesn't have that genus, like, whoa, of Lucifer, which by the end I liked it.

56:00.177 --> 56:06.803
[SPEAKER_02]: I just liked the character, even though the show didn't drag a bit Um, I finished CSI and they're CSO CIA and then I was like, what am I going to watch?

56:06.843 --> 56:08.845
[SPEAKER_02]: Cause I didn't really feel like I was in a Bonesy mood.

56:09.185 --> 56:09.645
[SPEAKER_02]: Guess what?

56:09.866 --> 56:13.249
[SPEAKER_02]: I got back on the lawn order SVU train, too, too.

56:13.329 --> 56:14.990
[SPEAKER_02]: That's a train I will board.

56:15.510 --> 56:18.273
[SPEAKER_02]: No punk feds required, and everyone gets their own toilet.

56:18.933 --> 56:20.714
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, it is so good.

56:21.214 --> 56:24.896
[SPEAKER_02]: I forgot how good it is because I watch endless procedures as you know.

56:25.436 --> 56:32.900
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I usually, it's like, I can't even watch L's Beth anymore because I, I don't like know what's going to happen because these shows are already predictable and like knowing what's going to happen kind of ruins it.

56:32.920 --> 56:35.261
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like, oh, well, you're going to watch L's Beth figure it out and over it.

56:35.501 --> 56:37.682
[SPEAKER_02]: If L's Beth figured it out with us, I'd be more into it.

56:38.182 --> 56:41.903
[SPEAKER_02]: But, um, SVU, the crimes they have on that show?

56:41.923 --> 56:47.344
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, I could never invent the things that are happening in SVU in a modern seat like season 27 or whatever.

56:47.584 --> 56:48.545
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, my Lord.

56:48.945 --> 56:50.425
[SPEAKER_02]: It is whack-a-do bananas.

56:50.645 --> 56:51.945
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, and I never know where it's going.

56:52.005 --> 56:58.267
[SPEAKER_02]: And sometimes, you know, like everything usually ends in like a very solid note on some of these procedures, this thing they could just be like mistrial.

56:58.507 --> 56:58.967
[SPEAKER_01]: Dang.

56:59.087 --> 56:59.488
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's it.

56:59.508 --> 57:04.830
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, whoa, or it ends up like a con mid conversation between two people who work in the same bureau.

57:05.291 --> 57:06.151
[SPEAKER_02]: It is great.

57:06.571 --> 57:07.292
[SPEAKER_02]: It's great to be back.

57:07.372 --> 57:16.377
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, they I'm just unlaffing because they changed the cast so much that I started the season and like four episodes in that that pose like you're like don't like at the end of that do like the end of the intro.

57:16.417 --> 57:19.378
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just them and like they're like we're cops and it's that post photo.

57:19.558 --> 57:21.800
[SPEAKER_02]: They keep swapping people in and out because they keep changing the cast.

57:23.708 --> 57:26.369
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, yeah, I'm packing the SVU train and it's been nice and I really enjoy it.

57:26.589 --> 57:28.529
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, something I'm not seeing the Odyssey.

57:29.009 --> 57:31.910
[SPEAKER_02]: Enjoy my friends, but I cannot still for that long.

57:32.290 --> 57:33.130
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, it's not for me.

57:33.770 --> 57:34.651
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not that interested.

57:34.731 --> 57:37.391
[SPEAKER_02]: I know I know I know I know I get it.

57:38.171 --> 57:39.032
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm actually not my story.

57:39.052 --> 57:40.172
[SPEAKER_02]: I know practical effects.

57:40.212 --> 57:40.712
[SPEAKER_02]: We love it.

57:40.752 --> 57:41.852
[SPEAKER_02]: We love the practical effect.

57:42.212 --> 57:45.833
[SPEAKER_02]: But I, um, I, I, I, mm, I'm not going to sit for that long.

57:45.913 --> 57:46.833
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe I'll see it one day.

57:46.933 --> 57:48.694
[SPEAKER_02]: I would love to see like a four minute clip on YouTube.

57:48.734 --> 57:50.174
[SPEAKER_02]: Honestly, I'm, I'm back on YouTube.

57:50.594 --> 57:52.515
[SPEAKER_02]: Not making videos, but I'm watching them.

57:52.535 --> 57:53.235
[SPEAKER_02]: I sent

57:54.075 --> 58:02.637
[SPEAKER_02]: And Disneyland Paris Guide to a friend who's listening, hi, but I hadn't really, I didn't really know much about the new, when they, the redo of the Disneyland Paris Hotel.

58:02.957 --> 58:07.318
[SPEAKER_02]: So I watched the mammoth clubs video and I'm, I'm enjoying watching Disney videos again.

58:07.358 --> 58:13.399
[SPEAKER_02]: Before it was like, I'm gonna clock out on my shift at Disney work to enjoy my Disney work, but I, I'm really liking it.

58:13.459 --> 58:16.240
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm really liking, I watch a bunch of stuff and I'm really like watching the videos again.

58:16.540 --> 58:21.442
[SPEAKER_02]: More for the parks that don't frequent, select Disneyland Paris is mostly what I've been doing, but I'm into it, I'm into it.

58:21.882 --> 58:24.263
[SPEAKER_02]: Is there anything else I'm watching?

58:24.723 --> 58:30.266
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, the last thing, I need to give a shout out to the Chris Fleming stand-up special on HBO.

58:30.906 --> 58:36.749
[SPEAKER_02]: It took me a long time to watch it because I was saving it for like a moment when I was alone and in peace and can watch and laugh and not worry about waking up a child.

58:36.909 --> 58:37.409
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh my gosh.

58:38.343 --> 58:39.964
[SPEAKER_02]: Truly the best comedian working today.

58:40.404 --> 58:55.995
[SPEAKER_02]: Highly recommend, if you don't know who Chris Fleming is, gotta watch the special, I believe it's HBO, gotta follow him on Instagram, one of who, one of who, and I went to a show of his, probably like a year and a half ago, and it was really fun to see how some of those jokes ended up in the final special.

58:56.355 --> 58:56.996
[SPEAKER_01]: It was fun!

58:57.256 --> 58:58.377
[SPEAKER_01]: Send up comedy, what an art form.

58:59.099 --> 59:01.059
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, I am going to head out.

59:01.079 --> 59:03.300
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to take more of you out to go potty.

59:04.060 --> 59:04.820
[SPEAKER_02]: So great to be back.

59:05.060 --> 59:07.281
[SPEAKER_02]: And we have a few interview episodes coming up.

59:07.301 --> 59:08.081
[SPEAKER_02]: Stay tuned for that.

59:08.321 --> 59:09.721
[SPEAKER_02]: And then D23 is right around the corner.

59:09.821 --> 59:11.062
[SPEAKER_02]: So brace yourselves.

59:11.082 --> 59:13.602
[SPEAKER_02]: If you have any D23 questions, I know we got one today.

59:13.622 --> 59:15.643
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to try to answer that for next week.

59:15.783 --> 59:19.624

[SPEAKER_02]: OK, bye.

59:23.705 --> 59:24.085
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, that's fine.

59:24.105 --> 59:24.865
[SPEAKER_02]: Because there's more of the show.

59:26.010 --> 59:27.471
[SPEAKER_02]: Bye for now.

59:27.531 --> 59:40.181
[UNKNOWN]: Hi Carly, this is Maddie from Colorado and I wasn't originally going to call with this message because I was like, hey, it's not that important.

59:55.650 --> 01:00:00.554
[SPEAKER_01]: you getting the method is on the turtle hotline is like getting male accounts.

01:00:00.654 --> 01:00:01.494
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was like, you know what?

01:00:02.095 --> 01:00:03.416
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll just call and say it for fun.

01:00:04.537 --> 01:00:22.070
[SPEAKER_01]: I am not sure exactly what your food is eating is like right now, like if you're fully gluten free or if you're trying it out or what, but I just needed to plug the gluten free chose at no math lounge in animal kingdom because I have heard about them.

01:00:22.869 --> 01:00:29.074
[SPEAKER_01]: and I finally tried them and then they were actually like one of the best desserts I've ever had.

01:00:29.094 --> 01:00:37.620
[SPEAKER_01]: I like don't really have that much of a palace for fried food because maybe I've been gluten-free since I was 15 so maybe I just like don't have this.

01:00:37.640 --> 01:00:42.063
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, for it like I taste it on my an and that's just kind of tastes greasy to me but these

01:00:49.335 --> 01:00:53.558
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, so just wanted to recommend those if you haven't tried them yet.

01:00:53.978 --> 01:00:54.559
[SPEAKER_01]: They're amazing.

01:00:55.219 --> 01:01:00.583
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and thank you so much for your podcast and I hope you have a wonderful day.

01:01:01.023 --> 01:01:01.304
[SPEAKER_01]: Bye.

01:01:01.964 --> 01:01:02.525
[SPEAKER_02]: Hi.

01:01:02.705 --> 01:01:02.965
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

01:01:03.145 --> 01:01:09.369
[SPEAKER_02]: I need to thank you so much for this call because you like incepted this into my mind at the exact time that I need it.

01:01:09.930 --> 01:01:11.431
[SPEAKER_02]: These truths are fantastic.

01:01:11.531 --> 01:01:13.632
[SPEAKER_02]: The truths and no my lounge are wonderful.

01:01:14.213 --> 01:01:15.554
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, and I kind of forgot.

01:01:15.914 --> 01:01:22.359
[SPEAKER_02]: about them because since I've been going with a child more sitting down at no allowed to just like, is not happening.

01:01:22.419 --> 01:01:23.620
[SPEAKER_02]: We are like running and gunning it.

01:01:23.680 --> 01:01:27.183
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean the last time I went to animal kingdom with my child, she slept the entire time.

01:01:27.764 --> 01:01:28.644
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, I'm still traumatized.

01:01:28.664 --> 01:01:30.146
[SPEAKER_02]: You guys know how much I spent on many vans a day.

01:01:30.166 --> 01:01:31.106
[SPEAKER_02]: And I don't want to talk about it again.

01:01:31.507 --> 01:01:34.529
[SPEAKER_02]: But like, she slept the entire time did not wake up, did not wake up.

01:01:34.569 --> 01:01:37.652
[SPEAKER_02]: Her eyes opened when we were in the car, leaving animal kingdom.

01:01:37.892 --> 01:01:41.775
[SPEAKER_02]: So like, no man lounge just isn't really, when we're there, we're trying to get things done.

01:01:41.795 --> 01:01:42.216
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't

01:01:45.398 --> 01:01:45.778
[SPEAKER_02]: it's true.

01:01:46.359 --> 01:01:49.902
[SPEAKER_02]: I love going with my child, but you know, pros and cons, different times of trips.

01:01:49.962 --> 01:02:02.575
[SPEAKER_02]: These chose are great and I had someone DM me recently and I don't always open DMs just because like I Midwestern when I open when I have to respond to it and then like it's just I don't always have the time, but I saw one pop up that was like, hey, um,

01:02:03.535 --> 01:02:08.559
[SPEAKER_02]: If it's basically that someone you don't know, you can see a preview of it and so I saw this preview and was like, oh, actually I want to help this person out.

01:02:08.619 --> 01:02:11.200
[SPEAKER_02]: They were messaging me because they were like, I'm going to Disney world.

01:02:11.220 --> 01:02:12.821
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to try to do four parks in one day.

01:02:12.941 --> 01:02:15.163
[SPEAKER_02]: What is one little treat at each park I should do?

01:02:15.503 --> 01:02:19.526
[SPEAKER_02]: And I realized in the course of like absolutely psychotically messaging them way too many things.

01:02:20.146 --> 01:02:25.370
[SPEAKER_02]: I realized that my diet has changed so much where I was like, I love the salmon at Magic Kingdom and I was like, who am I?

01:02:26.010 --> 01:02:40.993
[SPEAKER_02]: They're recommending this, but the one thing that was like a total treat that is something I can probably have and will be fine are these truths and they were fully like I like out of my brain wasn't thinking about them until you mentioned them and then I was able to spread the good word to other people

01:02:41.033 --> 01:02:51.878
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm so grateful you called in that we can tell everyone the chose are great all those treats I need to like I don't know what I'm gonna do just take like a hundred tummy pills and like try a bunch of stuff all of the yummy I recommend it.

01:02:51.898 --> 01:03:02.922
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like a cheeseburger egg roll, but like I don't know I haven't had them in a while I gotta go back and try everything because it's been like two years since I've really tried all the yummy yummy So that'll be a trip in the future.

01:03:03.183 --> 01:03:07.524
[SPEAKER_02]: There may future will be to try all those things But yeah those chose are really good.

01:03:07.825 --> 01:03:08.465
[SPEAKER_02]: They're really good

01:03:08.785 --> 01:03:11.647
[SPEAKER_02]: I also, like, I'm so obsessed with the maple popcorn in Upcott right now.

01:03:11.667 --> 01:03:12.527
[SPEAKER_02]: My mom was so right.

01:03:12.587 --> 01:03:16.290
[SPEAKER_02]: My mom was so right that day on my birthday when we got in it was boiling hot.

01:03:16.490 --> 01:03:16.910
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh my god.

01:03:16.950 --> 01:03:17.871
[SPEAKER_02]: Not the temperature outside.

01:03:17.891 --> 01:03:19.672
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it was, but the popcorn was boiling hot.

01:03:19.692 --> 01:03:20.352
[SPEAKER_02]: It was perfect.

01:03:20.833 --> 01:03:23.634
[SPEAKER_02]: The maple popcorn in Canada at Upcott is, Mwah, chef's kiss.

01:03:23.915 --> 01:03:25.936
[SPEAKER_02]: And like, that's what I'm looking forward to when I go.

01:03:26.476 --> 01:03:27.097
[SPEAKER_02]: It really is.

01:03:27.317 --> 01:03:28.137
[SPEAKER_02]: I need some new treats.

01:03:28.177 --> 01:03:30.199
[SPEAKER_02]: I have some bad, I need new recommendations.

01:03:30.239 --> 01:03:31.680
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm just out here eating like straight up protein.

01:03:31.800 --> 01:03:33.121
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, thank you for your call.

01:03:33.781 --> 01:03:34.141
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna go.

01:03:34.161 --> 01:03:36.082
[SPEAKER_02]: Those trolls are implanted in my, in my brain.

01:03:36.222 --> 01:03:38.184
[SPEAKER_02]: And if I go to Animal Kingdom on my next trip,

01:03:38.808 --> 01:03:41.350
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, I'm going there just for you and for me because I want to eat them.

01:03:41.450 --> 01:03:43.511
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you so much, Maddie, and enjoy Colorado.

01:03:43.872 --> 01:03:44.532
[SPEAKER_02]: The most beautiful state.

01:03:44.552 --> 01:03:46.253
[SPEAKER_02]: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

01:03:46.273 --> 01:04:00.924
[SPEAKER_02]: We cannot move on in this podcast until we acknowledge the fact that we collectively just use the Churros hotline to receive a call about Churros that was incredibly helpful and beneficial to those listening to this Churros response.

01:04:01.184 --> 01:04:02.125
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, my Lord.

01:04:02.545 --> 01:04:03.526
[SPEAKER_02]: We are living, like I,

01:04:07.969 --> 01:04:13.090
[SPEAKER_02]: Like all the layers folding in any other like some sort of like Avengers Marvel worlds colliding moment.

[SPEAKER_02]: Wow Wow, the chose hotline has officially been used for chose good, and I thank you That's our show I think you all so much for listening to this very special gab session episode remember last week when I couldn't remember our outro without looking at the outro outline I'm looking at the outline

01:04:37.483 --> 01:04:39.084
[SPEAKER_02]: I literally save four things!

01:04:39.744 --> 01:04:46.348
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think other podcasts have to do that, whenever they've rains in their skull, and you know what, we're jet lag, which is embarrassing to say because New York is not that far away.

01:04:46.408 --> 01:04:54.013
[SPEAKER_02]: We're jet lag, my child, but we have been for 30 in the morning, and I'm currently jogging water and coffee, hoping something will stick, hoping something will stick, so I need to look at a list.

01:04:54.513 --> 01:04:55.174
[SPEAKER_02]: So, ha!

01:04:55.294 --> 01:04:58.976
[SPEAKER_02]: Whatever, those are my accommodations for making my own podcast, and I'm just gonna roll with it.

01:05:39.088 --> 01:05:41.730
[SPEAKER_02]: It was so freaking easy and I'll tell you what.

01:05:42.271 --> 01:05:43.612
[SPEAKER_02]: I grabbed a room that like,

01:05:43.852 --> 01:05:52.615
[SPEAKER_02]: The price was like, I had to discount because of manual past like, basically I put, I'm going like right on the right on the line of when one discount ends and another one begins, so it's like availability is small.

01:05:52.755 --> 01:05:57.877
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, Blair found me a great rate and I keep checking back to see if there's because there's a hotel I'm holding out hope for.

01:05:57.957 --> 01:06:06.800
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm hoping I can get, ooh, I'm hoping I can get a discount right into this one specific hotel and I keep checking back and there's like nothing like Blair got me like, basically like the last room.

01:06:07.320 --> 01:06:08.742
[SPEAKER_02]: and I'm so, so grateful.

01:06:08.862 --> 01:06:11.685
[SPEAKER_02]: So be sure to head to mousebandtravel.com slash I'm using.

01:06:12.105 --> 01:06:17.330
[SPEAKER_02]: Even if you just want to hit them up and be like, hey, I'm a friend of Carly's, like I'm curious how much a cruise would cost.

01:06:17.410 --> 01:06:18.612
[SPEAKER_02]: I heard there's a lot of discounts.

01:06:19.012 --> 01:06:20.714
[SPEAKER_02]: We can go in November.

01:06:20.774 --> 01:06:23.176
[SPEAKER_02]: What you got, like hit them up, they will quote you for free.

01:06:23.497 --> 01:06:25.679
[SPEAKER_02]: There's no obligation, they're so easy to work with.

01:06:25.879 --> 01:06:30.424
[SPEAKER_02]: And like if you're not using a travel agent period, you should be because they save your time and they can save you money.

01:06:30.964 --> 01:06:40.029
[SPEAKER_02]: Follow me at Carly Wiesel across the internet, join the foumbling at Facebook.com slash group slash Carly Wiesel, and subscribe to my Instagram 99 cents a month, I'm posting a lot there.

01:06:40.129 --> 01:06:50.974
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think there used to be a thing where it would show you that subscribers were getting something in Instagram stories, if you didn't subscribe, and it would be like a shaded-out one, and it's like subscribers are getting a story that you don't see.

01:06:51.415 --> 01:06:54.656
[SPEAKER_02]: And I turned that off, but I feel like meta is a little sinister, and they're probably added in it back.

01:06:54.676 --> 01:06:59.299
[SPEAKER_02]: So I don't think anyone sees those anymore, because I did consciously go in all the layers of settings to turn that off.

01:07:00.339 --> 01:07:02.260
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think people realize how much I'm posting on subscribers.

01:07:03.021 --> 01:07:09.025
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll post like a couple stories a day and then there's like five behind it that are just exclusively for people who spend 99 cents a month.

01:07:09.165 --> 01:07:14.889
[SPEAKER_02]: I have paid more to put sprinkles on ice cream over the past two weeks in different regions of America than you will pay for subscribers.

01:07:14.929 --> 01:07:17.170
[SPEAKER_02]: So, I think I am worth a scoop of sprinkles.

01:07:17.571 --> 01:07:20.693
[SPEAKER_02]: I, as you know, I have a complex about asking people for money, but...

01:07:21.453 --> 01:07:22.774
[SPEAKER_02]: I do think I'm worth 99 cents.

01:07:22.814 --> 01:07:26.516
[SPEAKER_02]: I think I I think I can I just uncomfortably say that.

01:07:26.616 --> 01:07:30.459
[SPEAKER_02]: I am worth 99 cents if you want to hang out there Feel free to do it.

01:07:30.739 --> 01:07:37.724
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a ton of fun Also, there's like been a glitch for years and I finally got in touch with someone and they said That's just like regional.

01:07:37.744 --> 01:07:38.604
[SPEAKER_02]: There's nothing we can do about it.

01:07:38.644 --> 01:07:39.425
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm doing my best.

01:07:39.485 --> 01:07:46.369
[SPEAKER_02]: I would try for years to get it fixed I can't have got a fixed and I apologize, but if you can't join us nine times a month, we'd love to have you Thanks so much for listening

[SPEAKER_00]: I had the best sample sales shopping of my wife, and of course, Jack Wade's freedom, so so great.

01:08:26.480 --> 01:08:30.101
