Pat's Peeps Podcast
Ep. 241 Today's Peep Hotel Room Confessions: When Chiropractors Bring Vibrators. We're definitely not drunk, we're just having an amazing time in Stresa.
Laughter echoes off ornate walls as we gather in what might be the most beautiful hotel room in Italy – the Regina Palace in Stresa, overlooking the serene waters of Lake Maggiore. What begins as a typical travel podcast quickly transforms into a remarkable discovery: three people from our group grew up in Sacramento's Parkway neighborhood, walked the same streets, attended St. Charles Borromeo school, and participated in the same childhood rituals decades before reconnecting on this Italian adventure.
Against the backdrop of snow-capped Alps and crystal-clear waters, we share stories that bridge continents and generations. From getting trapped in the hotel's luxury spa to debating the actual height of the surrounding mountains (definitely not 30,000 feet!), our conversation captures the unfiltered joy that comes from experiencing extraordinary places with good friends.
The day's boat trip to Isola Bella becomes even more meaningful when we discover its connection to St. Charles Borromeo – the namesake of our Sacramento grade school. As childhood memories of Little League parades, Brownie troops, and the iconic Southgate Shopping Center resurface, we find ourselves transported back to 1970s California while physically sitting in one of Europe's most breathtaking settings.
What makes Stresa special isn't just its undeniable beauty, but the sense of tranquility it offers compared to Italy's busier destinations. As one traveler notes, "It's the most beautiful, stress-free, relaxing area I think I've ever been in." Perhaps it's this peaceful atmosphere that allows our guards to drop, our laughter to flow freely, and connections to deepen as we contemplate future adventures together.
Whether you're planning your own Italian getaway, curious about Lake Maggiore, or simply enjoy authentic travel conversations that capture both the destination and the human connections made along the way, join us for this uniquely personal episode that proves the best travel experiences happen when past and present, memories and new discoveries, collide in unexpected ways.

Speaker 5:People listening to Pat's Peeps 241 are going to go we're listening to a bunch of drunk people in a hotel room in Stresa. What are we doing? We are just letting loose, we're enjoying ourselves. We're so relaxed. We went on a couple boat rides today, yes.

Speaker 1:It's Brian with a Y. Brian Don. It's Brian with a Y. Brian with a Y.
Speaker 3:Brian with a Y, brian with a Y, like Brian Judge.
Speaker 2:He was Brian with an I. As you probably know, I might have mentioned, I have some pinched nerves in my lower back. Oh good, Thank God we have a chiropractor on the trip, because with all the walking it's killing me.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we have a chiropractor on the trip because with all the walking it's killing me, yeah Well and the chiropractor worked on my knee too. Chiropractor worked on your knee.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the back where the initial injury was. The initial injury was behind my knee and I felt that for the first time today. That's where it hurt first, but then everything after that was in the front, and then today I'm like oh wow, that really hurts. So he did his magic.
Speaker 3:Yeah, he did his magic. I was here to witness the magic, along with Lana and what's her name? Again, I'm sorry, caroline, who, caroline, caroline, oh jeez, we were all here to witness Sweet Caroline. Good times never seem so good.
Speaker 4:So good.
Speaker 3:So good, so good. And then he's over here working on this and I'm thinking for a second like, well, this is kind of a clinical thing going on here. First of all I didn't know what the hell was going on. I'm looking over here, the man's rubbing a man's leg. I'm thinking not in my hotel room, not on Pat's Peeps 241. I don't know what's happening, but that's not the way I roll. Then he's got some kind of contraption. He's zapping his leg with some kind of a weird vibrating thing. Next thing, this man's using a vibrator on my friend in my hotel room. Again, I guess that's against the rules with me and so, anyhow, I don't know what's happening. Then they claim somehow that it's some kind of a knee massage, but 10 minutes later they're both singing musicals together and that was freaking me out. I'm just being honest. They're over there singing musicals and actually in synchronized, dancing this is all illegal in my.
Speaker 2:Don't cry for me, argentina, that's right.
Speaker 3:So, please, this is where Pets Peeps 241 is going, right now it's a left turn.
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh, wow.
Speaker 3:Well, we got a great day, to be completely honest. We went out to some island, we got on a boat again.
Speaker 5:Isabel, two islands again Isola Bella, isola Bella.
Speaker 3:I mean, is that just the one found were St Charles?
Speaker 5:Borromeo, oh my God, was born and vacationed. And did you know that St Charles Borromeo was the founder of educational institution known as schools? No way, and many schools are named after St Charles Borromeo, including the one in Sacramento that a few of us have attended in our grade school years, from K through 8. And it's still there on Center Parkway.
Speaker 3:Actually three of us, as far as I know in this room right now, all went to lived in the same neighborhood. We went to St Charles. We all made our first communion there, right.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Monsignor Cavanaugh was there, I mean Monsignor Poole.
Speaker 5:Very good, monsignor Cavanaugh was at St Rose's Baptized me. That's right, that's right.
Speaker 3:And I was telling everyone too Monsignor Poole at St Charles Baromio. We went to First Communion with him and he taught us how to hold your hands when you're praying to go to communion. And that man's words. Here I am in my late 30s and I still Did you have to do a spit. Take over there, javier, or whatever your name is, javier.
Speaker 2:Javier.
Speaker 3:You have to do a spit take on that. It's all coming out in Italy. I still hold my hands like that. I'm still holding my hand like that, javier. I like that. His words still ring true to me. But yeah, and then I find out that Caroline and Lana and myself, we all grew up in Parkway. So if you're from Sacramento, you know we're old school Parkway, parkway rules Come on.
Speaker 5:Parkway rules Come on.
Speaker 3:Parkway was so good. Can you say where you lived in Parkway? Where did you live in Parkway?
Speaker 5:101 Parkway I live.
Speaker 3:we live between East Parkway and Brookfield oh my god, I know that area so well a and G Parkway. You know we were like kids and neighbors hanging out together. Can you believe that?
Speaker 5:and we. At the same time, they changed G Parkway. Do you know what it's called now?
Speaker 3:Goya.
Speaker 5:Forest Parkway.
Speaker 3:Now, what did they?
Speaker 5:come up with that.
Speaker 3:It is Forest Parkway.
Speaker 5:Yeah, what's up with that? Yeah, what happened to G Parkway? Goya's around the corner.
Speaker 3:The house was. This part was on G and this part was on F. It kind of went around on the corner like that, yeah, and it was a great place to grow up, yeah, and St Charles was a part of it, and you know. The other part is that you know, caroline was in brownies, right In brownies, and Dana over here was in, was it Lana? Lana was in what is it? Girl Scouts, which one's the older, the brownie or the Girl Scout?
Speaker 3:The Girl Scouts were older so like brownies would be like Cub Scouts for boys and then Girl Scouts. Okay. So, my dad, what's that? Were you in brownies?
Speaker 1:Kelly was in brownies. I feel like I kicked out.
Speaker 3:Were you a rebellious brownie.
Speaker 1:I like brownies.
Speaker 5:Did you not sell Girl Scout?
Speaker 1:cookies. What was in those brownies?
Speaker 2:It doesn't matter. I got out what was in those brownies. Yeah, you know what? It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1:I got out of it and I love brownies. We love.
Speaker 5:Girl Scouts and brownies.
Speaker 3:So my dad was the manager of my team when we were on the Cubs, so this is so cool. So if you're in South Sacramento in Parkway, then they'd have the parade for Little League opening day. To me as a Little Leaguer, it was the greatest day of the year besides Christmas, because you know you get, you remember that we would all line up behind Southgate right yeah, behind roads, and everybody would make up their floats for their team, yeah, in their pickup trucks, yes, by the Creek or whatever back there behind roads.
Speaker 5:Yeah, a Parkway.
Speaker 3:That's right, and we'd make up all the trucks. My dad had the 59-4. We used to call it the Blue Goose and my dad was the manager of our team and then you'd have a parade down Center Parkway to go to Charles Mack Charles.
Speaker 5:Mack School to the Little League Field.
Speaker 3:The Little League Fields were between St Charles and Charles Mack School, that's right, and then they, they introduce all the kids by name, you know, for the Cubs.
Speaker 1:Oh, it was great He'd run out on a field.
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh. But see my. I believe Caroline was in the Brownies. So my dad is driving along in this parade, right, and so we're all in the back of the Blue Goose, unbeknownst to my dad, all of us kids on the team. We've got water balloons filled up and we're waiting for the, so we're marching down Center Parkway and the Brownies are behind us. So halfway down the parade route we start lobbing water balloons at the Brownies. Well, apparently they didn't like that or whatever, so they suspended my dad from the Little League.
Speaker 3:Couch, yeah and I remember him calling out well, god damn it, you guys are throwing water bottles or water balloons at the brownies and they're going to suspend me At the brownies.
Speaker 1:At the brownies. Sorry, they got their brownies wet. Yeah, nothing worse than a soggy brownies At the brownies. They got their brownies wet. Yeah, nothing worse than a soggy brownie.
Speaker 4:Oh Jesus, I'm going to look for the movie. Huh, I'm going to look for the movie.
Speaker 3:Yes, which one?
Speaker 4:Caroline has a movie, yeah we have the family movie of the parade.
Speaker 3:Oh, wow, of the parade. I told her that would be the greatest. That would be. The number one thing I would want to see on a video or any kind of a home movie right now would be, that would be just the greatest, even if my family wasn't in it. I would just love to see. You know, because don't you think about that a lot, don't you? Yeah, those days, good old days, yeah, when you guys were kids, okay, did you go to Southgate Shopping Center? Oh, heck, yeah. Remember Banditos. Yes, banditos, all-you-can-eat restaurant. Remember.
Speaker 5:Bandito.
Speaker 3:Remember the playground.
Speaker 5:Remember the tiki.
Speaker 3:Oh yes, out there by C's Candy and Moose Atkins out in front, the totem pole, the totem pole, yes it was a t the totem pole.
Speaker 4:Yes, it was a tiki, it was huge. I got to meet.
Speaker 3:Dan Blocker out there, haas, no, from Bonanza. Yeah, my mom would take us everywhere. If there's a star coming to town she'd take us to go see him, and one time she took us to see Dan Blocker. We're going to go meet Haas Because they had in the parking lot, do you remember this? They had like a big cement I don't know what you'd call it, not a stage or something where they would hold things, sometimes out in the parking lot of Southgate, under the sign, and that's where Dan Blocker was. Remember he used to bring the Easter Bunny out there. Yeah, remember that, the big, gigantic, scary Easter Bunny.
Speaker 2:Oh man, dan Blocker, yeah, remember that the big, gigantic, scary Easter money. Oh man, they threw out candy, dan Blocker.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:I was always more of a Pernell Roberts guy, but that's great.
Speaker 3:One time, because they used to have Roy Rogers hamburgers, they opened. You remember Roy Rogers drive-in.
Speaker 2:Let me guess Roy showed up.
Speaker 3:So they opened a brand new Roy Rogers in Sacramento. My mom says we're going to go get a hamburger. And I remember that's probably the first time I ever really remember being in a drive-thru line at a fast food on a rainy day in Sacramento and we pulled up to the window and there was Roy Rogers in there in his cowboy outfit handing us our fast food through the window. Like what the heck?
Speaker 1:Was Trigger there too.
Speaker 2:I don't know about.
Speaker 3:Trigger. Trigger's time may have come and gone by then. Okay, wait a second. They were called Trigger Burgers, wait a minute.
Speaker 5:We have some local friends here from Sacramento who remembers going to Camp Sacramento?
Speaker 1:Oh.
Speaker 5:I heard that.
Speaker 3:I don't, I did not do that. Did you go? Did you go to Camp Sacramento?
Speaker 5:Did you go, kelly?
Speaker 3:Yes, Kelly.
Speaker 1:Lana, thank you for that question. No, but I remember driving up from Horsetail Falls. You see Horsetails and then you go up and you don't get carsick yet. And then you go up and there's this little sign that Says Camp Sacramento. I go, what is that place?
Speaker 5:And it was. Was it like it was all went there for? Camp they had like cabins, yeah, and then like the family, church or something.
Speaker 5:They had a talent show once a week. Everybody would would go and camp for a week, the families and everybody would get a cabin. It's called Camp Sacramento, and then they had like a cafeteria, you know thing, that everybody could go eat their meals and then you could like make camp food or whatever, but every Saturday. So you went from, I think it was from Saturday to Sunday. Every Saturday night they would have the talent show. Oh, at the camp and everybody would do talent show and we had a cabin down a few miles down below. So we never really went to, like stayed at Camp Sacramento, but we would go to the talent show and we'd try to find people that we knew from Sacramento that were there. And the point is I thought maybe some of the other folks had gone to Camp Sacramento.
Speaker 4:I wanted to bring it up, everybody said they hadn't.
Speaker 3:Yes. So let me tell a story and then ask again Now, have you been there, do you remember?
Speaker 5:that? No, we were talking about parades and brownies. I was thinking about tradition.
Speaker 3:Right, well, exactly, well, none of us were there for that.
Speaker 5:Okay, some of our listeners are probably there.
Speaker 3:Thank you, Darla, for that fine weaving of a story, Darla.
Speaker 5:Okay.
Speaker 3:Who got to go to Mamma Mia tonight for that fine weaving of a story, darla, all right, so I noticed that Caroline was locked in the spa this morning. Is that true, caroline? At the year of the hotel, is that true? We were locked in the spa. Do you see how I went from Camp Sacramento to being locked in a spa? Did you notice that, lana? I noticed it. Okay, it's called transition.
Speaker 4:Yes, that's a smooth transition. They say what do you want to know, Frederick? I don't know.
Speaker 3:Did you get locked into the spa this morning?
Speaker 4:We did you got locked in the spa. Yes, so Nick and I went down.
Speaker 3:It's called the Regina Sporting.
Speaker 4:Club.
Speaker 3:The Regina Sporting Club.
Speaker 4:Yes, so it's a spa, it's the fitness center and there's a pool. Kelly's been there, so we wanted to go down and check it out. So they have these automatic doors, they're glass and they're, of course, beautiful, right, because everything here is ornate and beautiful. So the doors open.
Speaker 4:They're automatic glass doors slides open, so we go in and there was nobody at the reception desk, but it was open. It said they opened at eight o'clock. This was probably, I don't know, nine o'clock or so, and so we, you know, just kind of walked around, checked things out, saw the pool, went to the gym, I picked up a weight. I actually did a few reps.
Speaker 3:You picked up a weight. I did hey very good. Way to go, caroline. Oh, I did a few reps.
Speaker 5:What's it? Five or ten?
Speaker 4:So I did a few reps so I could say I worked out. I did a few rips, no reps, so I could say I worked out. Oh, good for you. Anyway. So then, when we went to leave, we went back the way we came in and we waited for the door to open. We're standing there, the little sensor thing turned green, but the door didn't open and I'm like what the hell? Whoops, can we cuss?
Speaker 3:on your show. Damn it. We cannot cuss on this show. That's a bunch of bullshit. I'm sick of you, Carol. That's the third time I've cursed on my show. I really don't curse on my show, but I did anyhow. Damn it.
Speaker 4:Yeah, so we couldn't get out, and so I started to get a little panicked. Like Kelly said, it was kind of like human hot in there.
Speaker 1:If you're in California, you can never leave.
Speaker 4:That's exactly it.
Speaker 3:That's what I was thinking Was the smell of colitis in the air.
Speaker 4:Yes. No chlorine, you're right, so we're looking all around there's a phone, but there's no thing, like who do you call? There's a phone, but there's no one to call. So I said right, there's a phone, but no numbers. Who you're?
Speaker 2:going to call.
Speaker 4:Ghostbusters Right, ghostbusters right. So I said to Nick how are we going to get out of here? And he said I don't know. I got this, he looks around, he MacGyvered it.
Speaker 2:Like MacGyver.
Speaker 4:Yes, he MacGyvered it.
Speaker 2:That's law enforcement yes, so he MacGyvered it.
Speaker 4:I don't know what he did, but the door opened. It only opened halfway and it stopped and I said let's get the hell out of here before it closes, so we got out, and I have no idea why, but yeah so we got trapped and then we got out.
Speaker 3:Oh my, did so any?
Speaker 4:of you.
Speaker 2:We're caught in a trap. I can't walk out. Because, I love you too much baby.
Speaker 3:So is it the only thing? You picked up the weight for a couple times and lifted it and then got trapped. Or did you make it into the pool, or what?
Speaker 4:No, I didn't make it into the pool, just did the weights and said that was my workout, you know.
Speaker 3:And then that was it, and then you exited, and then we exited.
Speaker 4:You didn't go in the pool or anything no, we were just like checking it out, just to see, like what is you know?
Speaker 3:what about kelly and and ronda? Did you, did you check out the pool?
Speaker 5:yeah, we went swimming. You did, it was lana and kelly, we both went swimming. So we got through, the doors opened and closed behind us.
Speaker 1:I found the door, yeah.
Speaker 5:Kelly had a little more trouble than me, but it really was a nice pool.
Speaker 3:Did Steve show up in a Speedo?
Speaker 5:We didn't see Steve. He must have been after us.
Speaker 3:Was Ryan there? Did you go, Ryan? You didn't go check it out. I'm.
Speaker 5:Brian, brian, what about Don?
Speaker 2:Brian, I haven't seen the gym or the pool yet.
Speaker 5:The only ones that made it were.
Speaker 4:Kelly and.
Speaker 5:Lana Negative one.
Speaker 2:Negative one. And that's the other thing, these hotels, so God forbid. You're on the ground floor. That's floor number one, right? Not when you're in Italy. It's zero and anything below that is minus one minus two minus three. Like that hotel we had last year. Oh yeah, you're in room 304 on the second floor. Like they just couldn't get the numbering. I don't know what that's right, that's right. Brian.
Speaker 4:The Italian numbering system.
Speaker 2:That damn zero, ground zero here Ground control.
Speaker 5:Do you know what elevation we're?
Speaker 4:at here.
Speaker 3:No, you do.
Speaker 4:I do 650.
Speaker 3:That's it 650?.
Speaker 1:Oh that's right, because you were doing the fact. Yeah, because, remember, we thought it was 2,000, then it was 200, but it's actually 650.
Speaker 5:Oh, I thought that was how it happened. No, but then when you look at those Alps with snow on them, it's such a gorgeous view.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 5:That is like help, help 30,000.
Speaker 4:30? 30.000.
Speaker 5:30? 30.
Speaker 4:No, yes, yes.
Speaker 5:No, they're like 11,000. No.
Speaker 3:Well, isn't Mount Everest 29,000? No, 37.
Speaker 1:Mount Everest or 39.
Speaker 3:I know that oh boy you are not going to want people to Google this Kelly, you know more than me.
Speaker 5:Oh, because I'm vaccinated.
Speaker 4:Yes, because when we flew over and we flew over them at 35,000 feet- we were 5,000. Whatever?
Speaker 3:the fuck her name is now oh Caroline. That's what I said I know for a fact it is. I watch it all the time I did not know the Alps were that high?
Speaker 4:They told us they're 30,000 feet. Look it up, Brian Wow.
Speaker 3:Someone was way wrong.
Speaker 2:Tallest mountain in the Alps is Mont Blanc, also known as Monte Bianco in Italian. 1,500, sorry, 15,731 feet.
Speaker 5:Yeah, 15,000 feet. That's more like what I was thinking, but I think it's cool.
Speaker 2:We're looking at the Alps and over there in the far distance we're looking at Switzerland.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and that's the true thing. If you could really understand where we are right now in this place, I just want to say that it is the most beautiful, stress-free, relaxing area that I think I've ever been in. I was here two years ago and I remember shooting a video over there. It was a cloudy morning and I was over walking along the pier I don't know if you call that a pier or whatever and I tell you I felt so relaxed here then and coming back here, it's the same thing. There's just something about this place versus. You know, we've been to Florence, we've been to Rome, we're going to Milan. There's a lot of these places, even in places like San Gimignano, where it's very, where there's a lot of people and it's just, you know, chaos. It's a lot of chaos. It's very, very relaxing here. I don't know if you guys sense that right?
Speaker 3:I mean it's totally and the view honest to God where we went today.
Speaker 1:It's stressa, no stressa.
Speaker 3:It's no stressa.
Speaker 1:It's so ironic.
Speaker 3:We went to this island today and it was what did you call it? An island? It was just this little. It was one of the most beautiful places I think I've ever been. Pulling up on that boat coming up there today and we just we had, you know, again, ken Chase showed up.
Speaker 3:Ken Chase runs Conservative Tours. This is my sixth trip with Conservative Tours. You know, one of the things I really like that he did tonight is there's a dinner going on for people who have been on this trip before repeat travelers for this trip and so Ken throws this dinner for them and I think it makes him feel very special and he treats people real well, especially when it rewards him with things like this for continuing to travel with us. And this has been my favorite part of the trip, kind of slowing down here doing this. But yeah, I just if you're you know, remember we're going to Sicily in October. We'll be here for Halloween, going into, you know, I think November 5th is the. I think we're coming back on November 5th, something like that. But you know, and one of the things I also love about this is so many people I don't know someone was telling me here anyhow that a lot of the people on the trip were already saying yep, I think we're going to go to Sicily too. We're going.
Speaker 1:You're going to go, we're going, oh my gosh, we're going to travel together again.
Speaker 3:Dawn. What a blessing, javier, javier. No pressure, javi.
Speaker 1:Javi, javi.
Speaker 5:Javi, have you decided? Have you decided, javi? Dr Javi is in the house.
Speaker 3:I already booked another tour with Kitty O'Neil. Are you going?
Speaker 2:with.
Speaker 4:Kitty.
Speaker 3:I'm going with Kitty on the cruise the same day, are you?
Speaker 1:doing the Ryan one? I am, yeah.
Speaker 3:Sorry.
Speaker 1:Because I looked into that. That's the reason, wow, and if I, because I'm a single, it would cost me. Well, I'm a double. Well, of course you are, but Kelly's a single at this time.
