Navigating the treacherous waters of homeownership becomes our opening conversation as we collectively agree – it's a struggle that unites us all in mutual frustration. From there, we dive into the unexpected adventures of battling SoCal rush hour traffic on a Monday, a rookie mistake that delayed our recording by a full day.
The conversation shifts to a detailed exploration of Disney experiences, with one host sharing their recent visit to the Hotel Grand Californian's special 70th anniversary buffet. At $62 per adult (less with discounts), the spread featured everything from prime rib and shrimp cocktail to Mickey cake pops that would normally cost $7 each in the park. This insider knowledge provides valuable context for anyone planning their next Disney adventure and wondering if the exclusive dining experiences are worth the splurge.
The heart of our episode centers around a comprehensive breakdown of EDC Vegas, comparing three distinct approaches to experiencing the festival: hotel commuting, Camp EDC, or the official Hotel EDC package at Virgin Hotels (formerly Hard Rock). At approximately $2,000 per person for the Hotel EDC experience, our host walks us through what that investment gets you – exclusive shuttles that bypass regular traffic, pre-venue security screening, pool parties with DJs from 11am-5pm daily, and $30 food credits. The honest assessment of pros and cons, from the owl stage decoration that resembled "a backyard pigeon deterrent" to the magic of Tiesto's sunrise set, offers both entertainment and practical guidance.
We wrap with animated discussions about recent films like Ballerina and Lilo and Stitch, upcoming Comic-Con plans, and the absurdity of an $80 Galactus popcorn bucket that's "30 inches tall." Our authentic friendship permeates every topic, creating an experience that feels less like listening to a podcast and more like joining a conversation with friends who aren't afraid to call each other out or celebrate each other's passions.

Speaker 2Yeah, uh, different. You got to give everyone a backstory because nobody was here. Nobody else was on the chat except for us, hayden.
Speaker 3We went to Disney. That far back, way back, I was born.
Speaker 1I remember swimming up this canal. I had to fight three million other dudes.
Speaker 3I remember swimming up this canal. I had to find three million other dudes. So yeah, we went to Disney. Honestly, I think it's going to be the only time we go this summer. Honestly, it's because we're busy as fuck. Dude, we're busy as fuck, aren't you going like?
Speaker 1in three weeks.
Speaker 3That's a different Disney, it doesn't count.
Disney Trip Adventures & Buffet Experience
Speaker 1Oh, okay, okay.
Speaker 3This Disney.
Speaker 1Disneyland.
Speaker 2I said Disneyland.
Speaker 1No, he said Disney he said he should have clarified.
Speaker 2I'm like wait a minute fool.
Speaker 3We're going in less than three weeks, but, um, yeah, no, it's like're going to less than three weeks, but yeah, it's the only time we have to go and, honestly, we haven't spent that much time at Disneyland in a minute.
Speaker 2We left.
Speaker 3Friday night, when I got off work Actually on time, wait, I think you mean you, not we, because they went a week ago.
Speaker 1That's true you. Yep, that's true you.
Speaker 3You got a bachelor weekend.
Speaker 1Yeah, you all had been there together in a minute. It's like, bro, we got back from Japan two days at Disney, you went five days later.
Speaker 3I mean, it was Star Wars.
Speaker 2You would have gone to if you had time off. And lived there.
Speaker 1Last time I checked I didn't argue any of that shit Straight fact. I was like, let me have two more days off, shit right, let me have planned this properly and work from home. And they went the end of that week.
Speaker 2People have be calling you and you're like we went early-ish, like 10-ish on Saturday.
Speaker 1Saturday.
Speaker 3Just kind of chill.
Speaker 2Everyone went early-ish. Oh, look at you Getting everybody up before fucking noon 10's about right.
Speaker 1That's usually when they get there. When we're there, we're trying to say go at 8. And then Jack's like I'm in, the other ones are like I'll meet you there.
Speaker 3Catch you later, bros.
Speaker 1Y'all have fun.
Speaker 3No, it was just chilling, riding rides as they come across them and eating. Saturday we did actually go early enough for Ronto Wraps and it wasn't even my idea, it was actually the children's idea what I was like. Alright, let's go.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's what I'm saying the teenager even she's like hey, let's go.
Speaker 3I'm like alright.
Speaker 1Shit watch me eat this Ronto Wrap. And we did, I could have gone back a second time, dang, and we did. I could have gone back a second time Dang.
Speaker 3I'm like watch me eat the Toronto wrap and save everything else for the buffet later, because we went to the Hotel Grand Californian. They have a storyteller's cafe, storyteller's something, but they have a special theme for the 70th. It's like Donald's adventures or something. So the characters have their Donald, daisy, pluto, goofy and Clarabelle. They'll have special outfits on for this season, I guess. So I'm like whatever, and we never do dinner.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's the thing.
Speaker 3And there's a reason Cause we said fuck it it we're going home, there, got you five chilling. Pick the fuck out. I'm like got the itis. Yeah, I'm like it wouldn't be a bad idea to go home like okay do a little bit more shopping and go back so I had a.
Speaker 1I had a follow-up that I didn't ask in the text. That was basically when I asked you basically access. You said you could get there through DCA or the hotel. Yeah, does that mean you leave DCA or is it in DCA and you can just get there from either one? Where actually is it? Is it in the hotel? Is it in DCA? Is it somewhere in between?
Speaker 3It's in the hotel. We don't go back there a lot when you're with us. Where Little Mermaid is, you go further past Little Mermaid. There's a wilderness trail back there. We don't usually go back there because I don't want you getting flashbacks and shit Makes sense.
Speaker 1That would be the opposite of that goofy ride in the back corner.
Speaker 2Basically, if I was on the other side, so that would be the opposite of, was that that?
Speaker 1goofy ride in the back corner. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so basically, if. I was on the other side, that would be over that.
Speaker 3Okay, I got you. Yeah, there's part of that trail.
Speaker 1You can just walk right into Grand Californian. Oh well, hell. So if you come back in you have to go through security over there or something. Or you're not allowed to get in that way. Yeah, no, they have another security.
Speaker 3They have their own security. Okay, well, that's cool. Yeah, no, you can get real food. If you're missing popcorn buckets, everything's sold out. They're usually hiding some in there.
Speaker 1Oh, that's not bad, but not like Japan, where you can just go to the popcorn bucket store Exactly. I don't know how they don't have that in.
Speaker 2California. That just makes sense, because they want you to walk around.
Speaker 1They want your foot traffic? Well, yeah, but you're going to walk around anyway. I'm talking about, if you didn't- get what you wanted.
Speaker 2Not everybody. There's some people who just go in and go directly to the popcorn bar and be out.
Speaker 1We did see that dude with the Tauntauns or Death Stars, whatever the hell, death Stars, yep.
Speaker 2And guess what? 20 years ago he had like five of those Mickeys too, if 20 years ago 25 years ago, if Jack and I would have had shopping passes, that's what we'd do Zip right to the fucking popcorn bucket and be out. Yep.
Speaker 1Bye, that's crazy. I still can't believe that was a thing, right? So okay, cost-wise comparable to breakfast.
Speaker 3Twice as much as breakfast. Yeah, it was like 50 a head or something like that oh that's it yeah.
Speaker 2Bro, that's not bad at all. I think breakfast was more than that, when we all I was going to say breakfast was like 60. Yeah, breakfast was like 67 or something.
Speaker 1It was, it was $59.99 and then plus tax, minus your discount, let's see. Because yeah, I was like damn, I was like that's a good answer, Because you know I'm Disney rich.
Speaker 3I don't be looking at that shit, I'm just like whatever.
Speaker 1That is very true. That is very true.
Speaker 2But you know what? You ain't AC rich oh got him, got him.
Speaker 3Hey, sorry, $62 per adult, but still you get the discount.
Speaker 1That's not bad at all. No, no, no, your discount puts it at $50. So, no, that's actually for dinner.
Speaker 3But how was the spread? You only?
Speaker 1had the one picture.
Speaker 3So how was the spread? So they had prime rib and turkey at the cutting board. Shrimp cocktail, mac and cheese. They had like four different pizzas and they had popcorn, shrimp, good decent salad, bar rolls, fried chicken. They had ribs brisket. You're getting your money's worth.
Speaker 1I was gonna say it's a fair to biddle in vegas buffet basically yeah, like, and then, um, they also had cake pops.
Speaker 3you know the same ones you'd be paying $7 for in the park. You, just little one, ate like seven of them. Is it Mickey heads? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, mickey head cake pops, you know, they cost like $7 inside.
Speaker 1Dang, that's wild.
Speaker 3And they had a s'mores bread pudding Delicious.
Speaker 1So what I heard was bring a Ziploc bag. That's what.
Speaker 3I heard Yep.
Speaker 1Mm-hmm.
Speaker 3You need to bring an extra lounge. Fly with Ziploc bag, yeah. And that bitch with saran wrap For real. Just get that shit in there.
Speaker 1Get that reversible, that rubbery, sticky shit that's on my packages and everything, and just line it up on the inside. Be good to go. The zipper connect that shit to the bag. The zipper closes the Ziploc. Oh my god, how has somebody not made a buffet? Backpack, yet I'm saying how has somebody not made a goddamn buffet backpack?
Speaker 2I bet you could find one on Teemu.
Speaker 1Probably actually, man, I would sell that shit. You know them people in the hood would buy. I'm just saying it would sell. It would sell. Give my $35. Go to motherfucking swap meet.
Speaker 2So that was your Saturday? No, that was yesterday.
Speaker 3The buffet was yesterday.
Speaker 3Members yeah, yeah then today, um, we just went in real quick. We did star tours, we were looking for a 70th anniversary oswald pin that lou sent us we didn't know existed, like, oh shit, let's go find it. We did not find it, um big one, and I went all the way to the disneyland hotel to see, because sometimes they don't get picked over as much it. We did not find it Big One and I went all the way to the Disneyland Hotel to see, because sometimes they don't get picked over as much. But she did find some pins. I guess there was a Disney pin trading conference so she got a couple of exclusive pins from there that they just put on the shelf.
Speaker 1So be using that for trade power. That picture I jacked from from dis.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 1Okay, cool yeah.
Speaker 3So she still needs the Oswald, but she got a couple of good pins that she can use for trade power and Orlando's a couple.
Speaker 1So that's Disneyland. So that wouldn't be in Florida. Then right, you won't be able to get that in Florida, no, okay.
Speaker 3But she can get something else good, because these pins are only here at this convention. They're limited to like 500 each or something Damn.
Speaker 1So downtown Hollywood pin buying man I don't even know what I did with them pins, oh never mind, somebody took them. I know exactly that.
Speaker 3That seems somebody that stole your Hoth jersey.
Speaker 1Yeah, uh-huh, required a second one. Embarrassing, that reminds me. I'm assuming you just want me to get an autograph with that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I figured. Oh, and then, luckily, danielle, I saw the X-Fan Expo Denver come up Like, oh, she's canceling. Oh man, no, she's just dropping Friday off. Still there, saturday, sunday the only one that canceled today was Ernie Hudson. A filming schedule conflict. It's like OK, I'm happy for you. Most of these people it drives me crazy. They get mad. Somebody cancels. Oh, it happens every time. There's actors they supposed to be here and fan expo screws up. I'm like, dude, he got a job, calm down, right, shit. It's like if you like him so much, you should be happy that your, that your boy, got a job Uh-huh, but these people just always about them?
Speaker 2Well, no, it's always about their eBay store. Man, let's be real. Let's be real Sometimes.
Speaker 1Sometimes I'm driving 13 hours in. I was just coming in to see Ernie Hudson. I'm like wait what?
Speaker 2You've got other problems. You've made some other bad decisions before that.
EDC Vegas: Hotel vs. Camp Experience
Speaker 1Yeah, I was like you've got other problems. If that's the case, All right, case Alright. So I want to hear about EDC.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1It's been like a month and we ain't heard that story yet.
Speaker 2I don't even remember.
Speaker 3My therapist and I finally got through Drugs?
Speaker 2No, why sober rave? What are you talking about? Who doesn't?
Speaker 1Yeah, who doesn't?
Speaker 3I heard that when people lie they take subs of their drinks. Wait, hang on.
Speaker 1I heard they blink. Yeah, I heard they blink.
Speaker 2I heard when you lie, your lips move. Uh, no, oh uh.
Speaker 3This was for me, my third edc, yeah yeah, in a row, yeah or just third total, third in a row and you only do the ones out here, right? You don't like yep, follow them or anything, okay, no uh, only done vegas.
Speaker 2I have never done orlando or any of the other uh ones that they throw, which are usually much smaller in scope I just learned that they throw other ones just right now. Yeah, so they have a pretty big one in Orlando. It's at the end of the year, I think. Usually they usually don't have those. Those ones are during the day, so they generally don't have those during the summer, because it just yeah you would die, fucking, murder your soul.
Speaker 2So I'm really, I'm really number one. I was real happy because last year it was 100 plus for like two of the days, but the show's at night, so it's fine, but still during the day when you're trying to sleep and it's 100 out like so this they said they moved it back a year this year, which was awesome because it was like the high over that weekend was like 90, 91. And then the following weekend it was like 110.
Speaker 2So I was like, yeah, just let's, let's just keep it at this weekend. So real quick recap. The first year I kind of did it where we stayed at a hotel and drove in every day or ubered in every day, and it just was kind of a hassle, and whatnot. Last year we did camp edc, which you're attached to, the actual uh fairgrounds that's right.
Speaker 1You rented the rv, so there was a lot of logistical things.
Speaker 2There was a lot of bonuses but also some negatives to that too. So this year we did the me and the two, my two friends that I went with last year, emily and Ari. We had a long conversation a couple of months before, like February, and they decided we were going to do Camp edc, or sorry, hotel, hotel edc this year. So hotel edc uh, before, in previous years, they basically have like got a block of rooms at a resort. So I think two years ago they were like a resorts world and they've been at other hotels like that where they'll have like three or four floors of a of a hotel. This year they actually had all of virgin hotels, or at least as far as, as far as people who hadn't already booked when they made the announcement, if that makes sense. So like it was probably, I would say like 95% people who were all EDC related. Right, they were either going to the thing or, you know, they're there for the show.
Speaker 2I did see a few people wandering around who obviously were not there for the event, but it was a very small number. They basically took it all over. Every single bar had themed drinks. They had a beauty bar where you could go and get shit put in your hair and that type of thing, get your makeup done and whatnot Did you get your beard?
Speaker 3did.
Speaker 2Well, we talked about it. But then, like, the problem is that they're like, oh, you have to be in line at like 930 in the morning for the appointments because they only have a certain number of appointments, exactly. I'm like, well, that's, I mean, I would be fine. But also like when we got up on sunday it was like, oh, we should go do that. I'm like I'm not going, I'm not gonna fucking do some bullshit to my hair, my beard, for one night, like, yeah, especially if it's like glitter, where it takes like a week for it to wash out. Now, I'm good if it was friday, sure, because I'm already three days in at that point, you know. Um, so we wandered around every day at the pool. They had, um, they had music going from like 11 am to 5 pm. Um, the pool is actually the virgin and the virgin hotels pretty nice, I mean. I. I like I liked it. The way the layout and everything was was pretty cool. We got to stay in one of the, the fancier, was it called the Virgin Hotel.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's Virgin Hotel. It used to be the Hard.
Speaker 1Rock. It used to be the Hard Rock. Now I got you.
Speaker 2It was one street off the Strip, it wasn't on the Strip.
Speaker 3It was on Paradise, yeah, paradise.
Speaker 2I think it's one of those hotels where, if you want to stay or you have a car and you're going to be doing other non-strip things, I think it would be fine. But if you're a strip person, I don't know if I would suggest it because it is a pretty long block from you know, it's a walk to get to the strip from Virgin. So we flew in Friday night, we Ubered in, got checked in. The room was nice Two beds. It was kind of split up where there's like a living room area.
Speaker 2Bathroom was real nice, nice giant bathroom. The bathroom was like almost as big as the bedroom, which was kind of weird, because usually the bathrooms are real small in Vegas. Well, most hotels I guess, the bathroom is usually pretty small, but this one had like an orgy room like attached to the tub and the like. It was kind of weird. Um, uh, so, uh, the first night, uh, the shuttles were kind of messed up. So one of the benefits of being at the Virgin hotels is that you get like your own shuttle because it's this camp since this hotel, edc, right, um, and part of that was that they were going to go through the air force base, so instead of going through, and getting on the freeway and taking the freeway.
Speaker 2The problem is with that is that you're still going through town so if you hit like a bad run of lights it's not really any faster. Like it took us like two hours to get from the hotel to the the event, um, but once you got off the bus it was like a super short walk because they do all the security and stuff at the hotel. So when you get off the bus you scan your bat, you scan your wristband and you're in. There's no half mile walk up id all that like they take care of all that stuff at the hotel. So in that regard it's real nice because, yeah, you could kind of get psyched up and get and just hit the ground right yeah yeah, um, uh, the first night.
Speaker 2Uh, the first night was cool. We, we went and we saw a few acts that we hadn't seen before. Um, I should get my.
Speaker 1You guys wait wait Few acts you hadn't seen before. So the same acts show up all the time.
Speaker 2There's usually like a group of DJs who so there's two big companies that do electronic music One's called Insomniac and the other one's Tomorrowland and there's some DJs who really only do Insomniac events and there's some DJs who only do Tomorrowland events. So every single year if you're going to one of the larger events, you're going to generally see these. I'm going to say like 20 DJs, but if you go to Tomorrowland, these 20 DJs are generally going to perform. So it was people. We tried to see people that we hadn't seen before, just because we'd already seen them before, if that makes sense.
Speaker 2Like we wanted to kind of see other um, and so we saw a few people that we hadn't seen before and a couple that we did um the stage, the the main.
Speaker 2So their big stage is called kinetic field and that's the one where all the big acts show up or play generally.
Speaker 2Um, the stage was a lot smaller, which was okay, but um, it wasn't, as the first year I went it was huge, like in the thing they, they usually have a big uh prop in the middle of the, the middle of the stage, behind the dj booth, and the first year we went it was a. It was a um, uh, like a hindu goddess type of character where she had her hands like folded and she had her head down like this. And then at midnight on friday night, when one of the big djs came out, she all of a sudden lifted her head and started opening her eyes and moving her arms and there was all this like it was like super cool because like you weren't expecting it. And then all of a sudden she like wakes up and is moving through the rest of the thing and she had like full neck articulation Her eyes would open and close and her hands would move, which to me I was like that's fucking dope.
Speaker 2This year they had an owl who, like just turned his head and you're just like.
Speaker 3I'm like I want some fucking backyard for keep. Right, exactly Like I have one of those in my backyard to keep pigeons away Right exactly.
Speaker 2I use that to keep away the crows.
Speaker 3In that regard.
Speaker 2It was kind of disappointing because I think because the first year I went, the bar was set so high. So the first night was fine. We were there until sunrise, went back to the room, went to bed, got up. Was it two hours to go back? No, it was only an hour, back Hour and 15, I think it was so the first.
Speaker 2My understanding from the stuff that I read on Reddit afterwards is that every single year the shuttles are fucked up on Friday night for everybody. There were people who were taking the standard shuttle who waited like three and a half hours for the shuttles to show up. So like these people like lined up at like six o'clock to like get there to do opening ceremonies and stuff, and the first shuttle rolls in at like nine thirty. The opening ceremony was at seven, like you know. So. So then my friend my friend made the reservation. She gets a thing from Virgin saying you guys were smoking in the room. We're like, motherfucker, we weren't even in the room, like we had literally walked in the door at 9 o'clock. Like they're like you were smoking at 9 o'clock and we're like no, like we walked in the room and went to bed. Like we passed the fuck out. So wait did that get handled.
Speaker 2I did so they tried to pull it on twice and we're like, okay, the third time you fucking when you you come to the room, like don't, like that happened one other time where they like messaged her and said, hey, there's smoke in your room again and we're like, motherfucker, we're not smoking, like there's no smoke. Come to the room and smell my ass but yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2So, uh, they after, after she went round around with them a little bit, she talked to like two people and the second person was like okay, like if, if we get another report, we'll come up there, and then we didn't hear from them again. So I don't know what they were trying to pull, but I don't know, the first day we were the first day we were there when we were loading in all of our stuff, like people walked by in our room, like walked by our room who were smoking and they it was like there was a giant cloud around them. So it's, I mean, but who the fuck knows, whatever, not. But so then um saturday, we ended up sleeping all day. They made reservations for us to eat at the steakhouse. So the steakhouse at Virgin was actually really good. It was an expensive fucking meal, but I mean, that's the steak.
Speaker 3You should have gone across the street to Hofbrauhaus. What is that? You should have gone across the street to Hofbrauhaus. You could have these cute German chicks paddle your ass.
Speaker 2Paddle your ass.
Speaker 1Hofbrau would have been the place to go.
Speaker 2There was a lot of decisions that were made that I was, uh, just along for the ride I like I woke up and they're like we have a reservation at six at the steakhouse.
Speaker 2I'm like, uh, was I just 50? Did I, did I miss the? Did I miss the conversation about this? Like, was I high? What's going on? Like, okay, um, discord, it's in there, shit, huh. So, uh, steakhouse was good. Uh, the problem is that they gave us so part one of the perks of being at hotel edc is we got a 30 food credit every day. So they just gave us like a stack of like 10 coupons and like, of course, the steakhouse doesn't take those. It's like the regular restaurant, the coffee place, a couple other places. The nice thing is that they worked for alcohol, so you could buy booze and still use your cubans, which was, which usually isn't the case. Usually it's food or non-alcoholic drinks, but but they took them. So we're like, all right, right, cool. Uh, after we got done with steakhouse, we went cleaned up way back. Um, it was windy as fuck. They actually closed two of the stages for part of the night because it was so windy.
Speaker 3You motherfuckers were blowing away. Dude, I seen it. The tents were going, the fake grass was going.
Speaker 1The fake grass.
Speaker 2And then one of the guys that I was excited to see was Afrojack. He's one of the bigger DJs and he's been doing it for 20 years. I know of him. He was performing, he did like the midnight set and it starts raining and we're like fucking awesome, right like I'm I'm kind of jazzed a little bit because I'm just like I'm oregonian, I don't fucking care. You see people like oh no, like where are we gonna go?
Speaker 3it's like all the people from socal.
Speaker 2yeah, it's just fucking rain, just chill out, right. But it only sprinkled a little bit and then it stopped, so it was fine. And then he was like, yeah, you guys, he's like thanks for coming out tonight and fuck the rain. We're like, yeah, fuck the rain, woo, afrojack.
Speaker 1But he put on a really good show.
Speaker 2It was like he did a bunch of like his kind of what the music he's known for and then with about 15 minutes left, he fucking like hit, flipped a switch and it was just like the base that just like moves your insides and I fucking love that shit. Like, if you're going to hit me with some base, like hit me where I'm like, oh okay, like my insides are getting turned around right now, like I do that without the base for real, I got dashed right now, oh shit.
Speaker 1I feel the base from here.
Speaker 2And then they were like oh, we want to, and the problem is that you're standing a lot. I'm too fucking old to be standing for like 12 to 16 hours a night, like it's just. And so like two o'clock comes up and they're like okay, well, we want to go see this person and this person, this person. And I was like you know what? I'm going to go to the shuttle because I have no interest in seeing any of those people. So I went back to the hotel I still had my coupons I went and fucking got myself some motherfucking chicken strips, went back to the room, ate and went to bed at like four in the morning. It was awesome. I'm really glad I did it, because we woke up at like one and went to the pool because we're like well, we want to go to the pool at least once to go see what it's about the pool there is really nice.
Speaker 3It actually. They have a sand.
Speaker 2Lou would hate it, but you could get on the other side. The other side didn't have sand but they had the option, right, you could go in and it was a beach type thing. And then the other side was a more traditional pool, but heard a couple acts that I hadn't heard before but I knew it was aware of their music. It was really cool. They were handing out Powerade and water, which was awesome Any time, yeah. So they had a mini stage set up at one end and we're playing music the whole day. We bought two slushy drinks and a and a high noon hundred dollars. It was like okay, well, I mean, we're here. That doesn't surprise me. Like that's vegas braces coupons. Was that coupons? Yeah, no shit, hey, I have a coupon. Nope, sorry, okay, fine, here's a hundred dollars.
Speaker 2Uh, by the steakhouse, no shit um and then, uh, we went back to the on sunday and uh and finished it out and uh, they do, uh, on the last morning they always do what they call the sunrise set. So it's like, even if the it's generally like a bigger dj who's maybe already performed that weekend, but he'll come back and do like the closing set of the of the weekend and it'll be a different set of music. It's not like he is. If he played, like, midnight on Friday and he comes back and plays it four 30 on Sunday, he's not playing the same set, it's a different. So we got to see Tiesto, who's one of the biggest DJs in the world, and he did his sunray set, which was super cool, yeah.
Speaker 2And then we, we headed back, we our flight, our flight left at three, so we went back and slept for a couple hours, got up, cleaned up, packed everything up, got back on the plane and was home by eight o'clock on monday. So I mean, it was a, it was a turnaround, like it was um. So what I would do different if I was to do a hotel EDC again would be I would go on Thursday so I could actually go and enjoy the time at the pool on Friday type of thing. Like I cause by the time we got in on Friday, like it was, everything was already done.
Speaker 1Like we were like.
Speaker 2Oh, okay, by the time we got settled in it was like, oh, done, like we were like, oh, okay, by the time we got settled in it was like oh, it's six o'clock. Well, they finished playing at five, so you know. So that would be. The only thing is I probably would go another day just to take advantage of all the the stuff that was there, right, if we would have went on thursday, we might have gotten to do the beauty bar stuff, type of thing, you know so was that the preferred choice going forward?
Speaker 1the, the hotel EDC.
Speaker 2You've done all three options, so they all have pluses and minuses. I think it depends on the number of people that you're going with and what everybody's budget is, because hotel EDC was not cheap. It was probably two grand not counting flights or anything else. Per.
Speaker 2I think it was eight, yeah, total or per person per person so two thousand per person actually two thousand would include the flight, because I got we got a really good deal on the flight. It was only 200 bucks or something, and the less, the least, the less number of people that you have a room share a room with, the more expensive it is. So if I, like, went by myself, it would have been like 2400 bucks for me, the three of us. We were able to split the money out a little bit more. The nice thing is you, they gave us like a really nice gift bag that had a robe and a hat and a whole bunch of bullshit in it that you know.
Speaker 2Again, probably worth 100 bucks, 150 bucks total, but it was cool to get something that that nobody else is going to get. Right, like that bag was for people who were staying there. You couldn't buy the stuff it was, and the 30 a day was kind of a nice thing that you know that was. Uh, you know we would have still eaten there, but it was nice that they that that was rolled into the price of the, the event, the music at the, the music at the pool I don't know what normally a Virgin Hotel normally does on a weekend. If they have music like that, I'm guessing they probably do. Most of them at this point probably have some form of day club, but again, it would probably have been $30 or $35 to get into. So getting into it for free was cool.
Speaker 2But yeah, I mean, if you could put five people in a room because they had a pull-out couch as well, so they had the two beds and a pull-out couch Like you could probably do it for $1,400, $1,500 a person, which, again, for three nights isn't fantastic. But you're going for that experience, right, like you're not going to like you're, you're not just going to vegas to go to vegas like there's a, there's a whole thing wrapped around it, right, right, so, uh, so I would say like if I was to do it, I really liked being right next to the event. I would say I would probably say camp EDC first, knowing that there's more logistical stuff that needs to happen, right, I think doing doing it by yourself in any way, shape or form is going to be very expensive and, um, logistically challenging, right, like sharing, sharing the money amongst a group of people or sharing the cost with a group of people is always going to be a better way to do it.
Speaker 2I would say my least favorite way would would have been the staying in a different hotel and trying to figure out my way in every day yeah, um, just because there's only really the one way to get there from the on the freeway, and unless you plan on going in at like 2 pm every day and beating the traffic or waiting until midnight, right, like if you wanted to go in when it started at seven and you left at five, you're not getting there at seven, right? Uh?
Speaker 2so that would be my kind of my two cents on that, like I think I preferred the camping I liked, I liked the, the proximity to it, um, you know, uh, there. But again, there's also pluses and minuses to to that as well, um, since you got to bring in your own food or else you're spending fucking 25 on a, on a, on a corn dog yeah, I mean, I think the year that we did the camp edc they were talking about $150 plates of sushi and $90 pizzas. Some of the prices of some of the stuff there is just so fucking ridiculous Over the barrel.
Speaker 1You order Domino's, it'll take more than 30 minutes to get free pizzas. It's cold.
Speaker 2I guess there's one hotel by the racetrack, but that usually it's a motel six and it's kind of the same thing. That happened to us, it at uh, when we were going to san diego. Like the first year we found it and it was like 78 a night. We're like, yeah, and then the next year, oh, it's 178, wait what? And I think that's what it is that that hotel now realizes that is so true.
Speaker 1We got away with with motel six for, I think, six years and then all of a sudden one day it was like, oh dude, we stayed there for three third 330 for three 35 nights, and then it was 1300 wait what?
Speaker 2so, yeah, I mean, would I do it again? Sure, I think I already. I mean I don't think. I mean I already bought my ticket for next year, but you know, we'll have to figure out how, uh, the, the girls that I went with want to invite a couple other people, and so I mean, we'll see how it all works out.
Speaker 1I was just good, then I'll be.
Speaker 2You would think, except for none of them want to share a room with anybody else. So I'm just like okay, bougie, ass bitches, I know, you know, so we'll see. I don't know. Maybe I'll just come and stay at the Casita and drive in from the opposite direction every day Right.
Speaker 3They must have had um shuttles elsewhere, because that was the night we went to go see the empire strips. Back at the rio there were a bunch of chicks dressed up for it. So yeah, they must have. I think the rio was one of the stops sorry, didn't mean to cut you off there jack.
Speaker 2Yeah, no, no, yeah, no, I was in. So, yeah, the rio was one of the big stops. So there was like it was the rio, it was the virgin, and then there was like a mid-strip stop at some somewhere, um, and then there was one at the world um, was it the fashion center?
Speaker 1yeah, the trade center, that's right there where that outdoor mall is, area like down the street that outdoor mall charleston or whatever.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, not a great walk from what I read online I like that mall. I had a to die the freaking seafood buffet there, sushi and all that yeah, people were like, oh, I'm staying at the d or I'm staying at fremont, and they're like the first walk over the first day. We walked over there we were like, oh, maybe this isn't it looks so much closer the motherfucker who gets phone calls from that area constantly starts cackling Right.
Speaker 1I'd rather be on Fremont than the Strip yeah.
Speaker 2Yep, 100%. So, yeah, that was my EDC experience. The flights were fine. So, yeah, that's my adc experience. Uh, the flights were fine. Um, like I said originally, when we bought them four months, four or five months before we uh we went, they were like 550 bucks and I saw on reddit like a month before they were like oh, if you're flying southwest, go check your flights. And I went and checked and I saved I have250 in uh in credits on Southwest now because, like the flight, my flight, the flights we took were like a hundred dollars less and then we were actually able to get an earlier flight that wasn't even available, uh, when we uh initially made the the, the arrangements. So that part worked out real good.
Speaker 2The Virgin Hotel the bed was fine, everything else was fine, the people there were friendly enough and nice enough. You're paying Vegas. I think my biggest knock against Virgin is that you're paying strip prices for drinks and food and stuff without actually being on the strip. So that's the thing I think they publicize themselves as being like a strip Hotel. So when you walk in and you order A fucking seltzer and it's $16 and you're like.
Speaker 3That's because they motel sexed it. People used to be like yeah, no, let's go stay at the Hard Rock Off the strip. It's cheaper and then it's the fridge and the Hard.
Speaker 1Rock Off the Strip is cheaper, yeah, and then Fridge and the hotel, I'll buy my own shit. Yep, I'll bring a cooler. Fuck that.
Movie Discussions: Ballerina & Lilo and Stitch
Speaker 2Ice is free. The problem is now with so many, especially on the Strip of these places, you'll open up the fridge and it'll just have all their bullshit on it and it's all censored and if many of it moves they're like ding charge $30, ding $35.
Speaker 1They don't have an empty fridge for you.
Speaker 2You know what they'll do. Some of them, and I think actually I only looked at the fridge once but some of them what they'll do is they'll have their half. So half of it will be like a mini bar, but all of it will be censored and then the other half will be empty. So what'll end up happening is you'll be putting your shit in there and if it bumps any of it, then you got to call, get it reversed, all of that kind of stuff, or do it when you're checking out. But I think they make a ton of money off that, because I don't think a lot, I don't think a lot of people realize that, and they just pay whatever and yeah, but you can request to have that removed from from the fridge you can't, but you have but, but you have to put the number one.
Speaker 2You have to notice that it's there, and I think a lot of people, since they make it so easy to check out now, especially because you can just do it through the tv. You're just like check out, bing, bing, you're done. I don't. I think they make a lot of money off of the off of those centuries but but yeah, but yeah, you've traveled enough, you know that.
Speaker 1And if you didn't know it, you know it now. So, going forward, every time you make that reservation, you're like, hey, if you got that censor shit or whatever in the room, I need you to take it out. Or if they're like, well, we can't do that, I'm like, look, I'm a recovering alcoholic, I need you to remove that, then they will.
Speaker 2Right, but again, we know that I'm going to leave a bunch of empty bottles in the room afterwards, but again it's the spam emails, right, I'll send out 1,000 of them. If I get 50 responses, then I'm ahead of the game, and I think that's what they're betting on. Is that for all of us who were like, yeah, we would fucking call and get that shit reversed? There's just as many people who don't acknowledge it and don't realize it and pay it.
Speaker 1Or foreigners who don't even look at their bill.
Speaker 2Right, or not. Even foreigners, just idiots. Yeah, guys who are Disney rich. I'm only rich at Disney, though Only when you go through the gate.
Speaker 1Then you're like, it's like as soon as you go, as soon as you go through the gate. I don't look at price tags. Nope, I see what I want and I get it you.
Speaker 2You go through the gate and they give you a top hat and a cane and you're like oh shit, I'm the motherfucking monopoly guy.
Speaker 3Yep I will say the uh, the balan skull and the shin lightsaber set looks really good in person, though, and it came as a set. Yeah, yeah, you get one super long box, like our darth maul box was, and you get both of them in there. It looks nice, but shit's expensive. That's why I bought the hundred dollar lightsaber exactly.
Speaker 1Love you, ezra so all right that was my edc experience boy, get out. I'm passing out. Anybody get anything else. Y'all can keep going if you want, but I'm freaking done. I'm over here just like. Let's keep my eyes awake.
Speaker 2Tomorrow's ballerina for me.
Speaker 1So we can report in on that. Pretty sure my meeting is going to be cancelled Tomorrow, so same with me. It'll be ballerina as well. I heard it was just okay. That's what Duke was saying earlier. People saying it was just okay, that's what duke was saying earlier. People saying it's just okay.
Speaker 2Just okay, I mean I just I, when I was talking to lou before the podcast started, I told him I go, I think the john wick thing is gonna is gonna put it's gonna ruin the shadow over it, right like you're gonna make it in the world. Make it in the world. Don't fucking put john wick in it, because then people just want a John Wick movie, right.
Speaker 1I just want a fucking John.
Speaker 3Wick movie John Wick 3.5. The directors of John Wick are like nah, we probably shouldn't, but it's the only thing that's going to give this movie a fighting chance is if he's in it, like if he wasn't in it, it probably wouldn't have even made the $50 million it made this weekend. That's probably true.
Speaker 1And that's why they had to ruin it and put it in the trailer.
Speaker 2It still got spanked by Lilo and Stitch, though that shit was entertaining.
Speaker 1Until the last third of it. That final act sucked.
Speaker 3Are you one of those people that are mad that she gave up the child?
Speaker 1No, nothing wrong with that. That was probably the right thing to do.
Speaker 2Lou was like why didn't she give her up earlier?
Speaker 1Also true. Also true. It's like man and again dealing with that skinny ass, lilo.
Speaker 3Lilo's not positive.
Speaker 1Yeah, I need, I need. What the hell is that girl? Liza or Ziza, whatever that black girl is that was in.
Speaker 2That was in mandalorian lizo lizo yeah jack black is that who you're talking? Jack black is that same thing.
Speaker 1Jack black was the right size for lilo shit this little girl?
Speaker 3was he doing minecraft?
Speaker 2yeah, no shit he got confused about which side he was on man.
Speaker 1But no, the first, the first, honestly the first part of that movie middle part it was actually pretty good. Then you get to the last act. It's like all right, this is kind of garbage, but whatever, I'm not saying, I didn't tear up still, but this was bullshit.
Speaker 3Give me the feels, all right, but it was like I saw it don't need to see it again.
Speaker 1I'm good like I'll go watch Sinners again, no problem that was some good shit. I'd watch Karate Kid Legends before I go watch Stitch again.
Speaker 3Honestly but see what that movie got right was Stitch. You had to get Stitch right and then everything else was no argument there.
Speaker 1They got Stitch right. They got Stitch right for sure. He was just as annoying and pissed me off, just like he did in the cartoon. It was great. He did his job Right. I guess I wanted more of the cartoon ending than the way it ended, and again, I don't mean the whole get rid of the child thing, sister, because that's not even what happened, honestly. So the people were like oh my God.
Speaker 3He was like that's not even what happened, so that we'd be like, oh my god, that's not even what happened.
Speaker 1But, like you know the way they made the bad guy, it was like, wait a minute, wasn't he more like this and the car? It was just little things here and there, but again I enjoyed it. But, like, even when it comes out on streaming, I probably won't watch it again. I didn't like Moana 2 that much and I'd watch that over Lilo and Stitch Live action. I still haven't seen the Lion King live action with Mufasa.
Speaker 2We're less than a month away from Superman, followed two weeks later by Fantastic Four, july's been a good month guys Super.
Speaker 3Jurassic. They're like oh, we had Barbenheimer two years ago and now we have Super Jurassic. Superman're like oh, we had Barbenheimer two years ago and now we have Super.
Speaker 2Jurassic Superman Reborn.
Speaker 3Superman and Jurassic Park.
Speaker 2Super.
Speaker 1Jurassic 4.
Speaker 2Yeah. I think Jurassic World's gonna. That's gonna be a tough sell for me.
Speaker 3Dinosaurs and Scarlet. I'm there, I don't even care.
Speaker 1I know what.
Speaker 3I'm getting with the Jurassic Park movie.
Speaker 1Yeah, exactly, and it'll be a great $5 movie, not even sweating it.
Speaker 2So yeah, july looking real good Shaping up to be real fancy which day to get them?
Speaker 1Comic-Con night FF tickets. Yep, is it Thursday? Is it Friday? Is it Saturday?
Speaker 2Did you guys see I posted a few things, oh yeah, in the Discord.
Speaker 3That was a couple nights ago, right On Friday.
Speaker 2Yeah, I just went through the blog, made notes for the stuff that I thought I needed to Some of those posters are just like the posters you get at Walmart, though right the Trends International stuff, they're the Walmart poster company. Well, there was one that I thought was, there was the, the four, the Russell Hawks one.
Speaker 1Yeah, the new Hawks one.
Speaker 2I think that one's limited to.
Speaker 1They're all limited to like 100, I think A couple of them were at least, Because that one, the one above it, the Rebel Scum one, where they don't have any faces yeah, the Rebel Scum one where they don't have any faces yeah, the Rebel Scum one was the one that I wanted. Oh, I thought you said you wanted the New Hope one.
Speaker 2You're right. Sorry, I was looking at the wrong one, my bad, yes.
Speaker 1Yeah, the way it lines up is weird when you look at the site. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2They didn't do a good job.
Speaker 1Yeah, they did not line that up well. It's like oh, here's the name of it and it's like there's a picture right above it. It's like, no, it's the picture below it, after the paragraph worth of shit.
Speaker 2Yeah, but I think that's a real thing.
Speaker 1You know what? I'll probably be over there anyway, because O'Girl wants that K2SO1.
Speaker 2Ah, yeah yeah. And then I figured Jack would be at the Val Hockenberg because they have the Harley sticker.
Speaker 1Ours too.
Speaker 2I think she had blue stickers.
Speaker 1She had the Harley stickers, the Han and Chewie sticker. There was something else I can't remember what it was, but it was like Jesus, the poster, the print that they had. She wanted that. So, yeah, that booth was already happening and then the same thing with the glass, the tiki glasses. She wants that one. I think my niece does too, yeah.
Speaker 2Again like.
Speaker 3Disneyland. I am also Comic-Con rich For real.
Speaker 2I think you're way more Comic-Con rich than Disney rich.
Speaker 1For himself, for sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2I think you spend more at Comic-Con. You spend more in four days at Comic-Con than you do a year at Disneyland, Probably.
Speaker 3But you also do, you do recoup some of that money though.
Speaker 1Once in a while, yeah.
Speaker 2I haven't been slipping too much at comic-con. Yeah, I saw this pile of shit next to him in his room so I know he's not really doing that much flipping right now oh yeah, I forgot, I turned I turned the camera.
