The energy is unfiltered from the jump: we’re candid about Marvel fatigue, genuinely excited for Maul’s animated run, and torn on whether Disney should drop episodes weekly, in arcs, or all at once. We dig into how release strategy signals confidence, why May the Fourth deadlines can warp pacing, and what it would take for fans to trust again—namely, stories that breathe and characters that feel earned, not engineered. On Star Wars, we get specific: how a Rey-led trilogy might thrive with a long-arc villain like a reimagined Darth Talon, what Andor got right about tone and stakes, and why representation has to be organic and backed by strong writing.
Then we pivot to culture and sports. The NFL postseason tells its own story about ceilings and execution—why teams like the Bills need more than a heroic quarterback and how coaching changes can flip a franchise. Halftime show nostalgia turns into a real debate—Prince versus Michael Jackson—and why risk and craft are what make performances legendary.
The second half becomes unexpectedly practical and honestly pretty fun: a deep dive into the Disney Treasure cruise. Concierge boarding, a chilled lounge welcome, and rotational dining that actually changes menus keep things fresh across seven nights. Worlds of Marvel makes dinner canon-friendly and self-aware; Coco’s musical storytelling works; Pirate Night is a twist; and yes, you can order multiple entrees and call room service late. We talk numbers—what’s included, how tips work, and why, once you add food and entertainment, a short cruise can rival a theme-park weekend on total cost. If sand isn’t your thing, excursions will shuttle you from ship to site and back with zero beach drama. We wrap with a quick-hit day at Disney World—Tron, Guardians, Epcot snacks—and the cold splash of airport prices after a week of included meals.
If you’re wrestling with streaming burnout, craving better Star Wars, or just curious whether a Disney cruise fits your budget, this one’s for you. Hit play, then tell us: weekly drops, binge, or arcs—and what would you greenlight to restore your faith in the galaxy?

What?
SPEAKER_05:First time in like a month. What's up? What's up? It's only been two weeks. It feels like a month since I've seen you motherfuckers. Right.
SPEAKER_09:It's been three. Motherfucker two weeks. Yeah, bruh. You missed two. So which means the last time would have been the week before that.
SPEAKER_05:You've been a busy, busy boy.
SPEAKER_09:January 4, son. This is 25 now.
SPEAKER_05:We're like, ah, new year. And now we're like, ah, let's look forward to next year, 2027. Let's go. Season three of the pod is going to be four episodes. We're straight, we're straight streaming this shit. We're doing some Marvel Disney Plus shit. We're going from 33 episodes to 22 episodes to four. He goes quarterly. You're welcome.
SPEAKER_09:Plus, there's a black guy in the pod, which means we're going to drop all episodes at once.
SPEAKER_03:Yep.
SPEAKER_05:Otherwise, you won't watch them.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, man. And you know what's funny? It's not that nobody, everybody would still watch it every week because it's the problem. What Marvel's trying to do is it sucks so bad. Let's everybody talk about it all at once and then get it out of their system instead of hearing eight weeks worth of bad talk. It's like, would we rather have this done in eight days and give eight a week's log of bad talk or go from there? And the thing is, it could be a good show, but they can't risk it because they oh because their last show sucks so badly.
SPEAKER_05:It's just do you uh did you guys uh I I was watching the Star Wars Explains guy talk about the trailer and then he was talking about the article that came out with it. Sorry, we're talking about Maul uh Shadow Lord, right? No, no, no. We're talking about Wonder Man. Wonder Man. Can we just skip over that and talk about can we just talk about Maul for instead of it?
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, we can absolutely skip over that because we all know we're all still gonna watch it. If we don't know if it's good or bad, we'll find out when it's over.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:I mean, Trevor Slattery, I think we'll I think at least his part is gonna be solid. The rest of the show is Trevor Slattery. The Mandarin. The Mandarin. The act being a little bit of a big thing.
SPEAKER_09:That dude's gonna rock it no matter what.
SPEAKER_05:Right, right. So at least we'll have that to look forward to in the show.
SPEAKER_09:But honestly, the lead actually doesn't look bad either. Like he seemed like he could he could hold. I just don't really know anything about this character. He's Dr.
SPEAKER_05:Manhattan from the Watchman show. Yeah. Oh, I didn't recognize some of those clothes on. I didn't see his wiener, so that's fair. Jack bases everything on the Mr. Skin newsletter. If it doesn't come out in the newsletter, he's like, I don't know anything about it.
SPEAKER_09:We're like, can we show his penis, please?
SPEAKER_05:Oh, that guy. The real reason why we call him Wonder Man. Right. It's actually shaped like shaped like a pig's tail, so it's a corpse group.
SPEAKER_09:13 to 20. That's how I recognize Peter North, so that's that's fair.
SPEAKER_05:Peter North was the one guy that you used to be able to watch that nobody would call you gay if you knew his name. Like I don't know, Ron Jeremy. Nah, dude, I never I don't know. I never enjoyed watching Ron Jeremy in anything.
SPEAKER_09:Like I was almost nobody enjoyed watching him, but you all knew him.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:What the hell, Jack?
SPEAKER_05:We just gotta we just gotta move on to the next thing. Like, it's just like, man, no, skip, uh wait 45 minutes for it to buffer and then getting that 360 getting that 360 P quality. Right.
SPEAKER_09:Um anyway, you were talking about uh Maul.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah. Um he he mentioned something about it, so it's only gonna be eight episodes?
SPEAKER_09:It's ten episodes. I believe I believe it's ten, it's it's ten episodes with um two a week. Two episodes per week. Uh eight episodes is Wonder Man.
SPEAKER_05:He uh he gave the impression that he thought it was gonna be more episodes to begin with. Did you guys ever read anything about that? No. Okay, no.
SPEAKER_09:None of us. They might do extra seasons. They want to see how season one does and they might do additional seasons, but I didn't know anything about extra episodes.
SPEAKER_05:Maybe originally, maybe at a celebration or something, they had mentioned it being longer, but then maybe now they're cutting it to just they're they're giving the arcs that they they're doing the arcs that they want to do and seeing how it'll perform, and then they could do the rest of the story later, uh, if it does well. I I mean I think it'll do well. It's an animated series. I think most of their animated series do pretty well. Yeah. Like they're they're it's the live action stuff that's really suffered.
SPEAKER_09:Um yeah, that is true.
SPEAKER_05:So bad for doing this, so yeah, yeah. And then of course that dovetails into uh Lou already thinks 2026 is way better than 2025 because of the uh leadership changes at uh Lucasfilm. So do you guys think I mean what are your guys' what are your guys' thoughts on that just real quick for Kathleen Kennedy stepping down and going back to being just a producer and Bologna and the business the business? It was sorry, gosh.
SPEAKER_09:There's no change. There's there's there's all that means nothing.
SPEAKER_05:Because Disney's the one that's actually calling the shots.
SPEAKER_09:Well, it's not that, it's just the person they picked. Dave Dave was good at what Dave did, and then Dave became a bitch. Um and the the whole again, a lot of this a lot of this for me is about business, the economics of everything. You're going to take a sh a show or an IP that is mostly a male-dominated fandom. A white male-dominated fandom at that. Now we're talking US, obviously, there's twitch worldwide, and you've got like uh Chinese, Japanese, whatever, all the other countries. But if we're taking US, you've got this this white male-dominated fandom, and you're gonna bring in Kathleen Kennedy and the force is female, we're gonna make everybody female, we're gonna make every hero female, we're gonna have all the other agendas uh that they want to put in there, and it failed. Why? Because they were too focused on trying to expand the fandom to a group of people who don't really have interest in the fandom, and at the same time doing that alienated the fans that they actually already had. So instead of bringing in new fans to go with what you had, you kicked out the fans you had and really didn't bring in enough of the other ones because they weren't interested. Uh, you take the acolyte as a great example. It's like, oh, we're gonna cater to females and alphabets. Guests who really didn't watch the show. Females and alphabets. So you lost them, and the and then for the for the your basic straight white male, you lost them because you came up with this shitty ass story. Um that well, I take that back. The story itself actually was not that. It was how they executed the story with their female led and alphabets. If they had not done that, the acolyte probably would have would have succeeded, quite honestly. Um but that's what Kathleen Kennedy did, is she said it from the beginning that she was gonna do that with the whole forces female crap, right? Dave greenlit acolyte. He was all about it, was like, oh yeah, this is great, and and that's great. He has his baby Ahsoka, who was supposed to die, um uh per George Lucas, and that didn't happen because he was so hooked on fucking Ahsoka, so now he's got that as like, oh, whoa, whoa, hang on, real quick. You were using fine.
SPEAKER_05:Real real quick, you're using fucking as a uh adjective and not a verb in this case. That's a good point.
SPEAKER_09:Just to be clear, that's clear, everybody. Here's what's happening. But so so you you take somebody who's head of Lucasfilm and they have this agenda, and all you did was give it to somebody else who has the same damn agenda. So for me, uh no, it hasn't improved anything. I mean, great.
SPEAKER_03:What agenda does Dave have though? What's that? What agenda does Dave have, though? He doesn't have the girl.
SPEAKER_09:The same one that Kathleen had with the forces female. He said it himself. Yeah, he said it himself. I was watching some of the old videos. He said it himself that that's what he's doing. He's like, Oh, there's a female lead, so there's a female lead. So that's Dave's comment. He was like, so, so what?
SPEAKER_03:We have one in the towing the company line because what else does he do? He made Mando Grogu.
SPEAKER_09:He he was don't forget, he was a he was in charge of all the story shit that was going on with Star Wars for a while. Now, the other stuff in Lucasfilm, I am not sure. Like the Indy franchise should be dead. Um uh Kathleen killed that again, female led, um, with that one lady who's pretty pretty obnoxious, and it killed Indy. Um, but those are your your your main your main things from Lucasfilm. It's gonna be Indiana Jones is done for it.
SPEAKER_05:Since Acolyte, we've gotten season two of Andor, and we've gotten the skeleton card.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, yeah, and what did Dave what did Dave say about Andor? He hated it.
SPEAKER_03:No. I found the original article. He didn't hate it. Allegedly, he hated it. There's no public comments. Trust me, I know a guy who said that Dave hated it. That's where that source comes from.
SPEAKER_09:Somebody who was who who worked on and was back there said that Dave hated it. So you're saying he made that up?
SPEAKER_03:Allegedly. Allegedly. I looked into it. Okay, like my my friend's cousin's grandpa.
SPEAKER_09:After you brought it up, I read the article too. But here, you know what didn't come up? Allegedly he liked it. Why didn't anybody ever come up with allegedly he liked it? Why is it only allegedly he didn't? So the other thing again. If you're gonna pick one or the other, which one are you leaning towards? That he liked it or he didn't. But on the flip side, there's there's documentation of somebody saying Dave didn't like it. There is no documentation of somebody saying Dave liked it.
SPEAKER_05:So there's but there is doc but but just to be clear though, there is documentation of Tony Gilroy saying Kathleen Kennedy is the one that pushed Andor forward. That she supported it and she made season two of Andor happen.
SPEAKER_09:Well, she also supported she also supported uh the that Kylo Wren fucking movie post-episode nine as well, which would have made zero sense. So I mean I come on now. Not that you've seen episode nine, but I'm saying if you had, you would have seen an episode would have made sense. Right, right. Then you would have understood that.
SPEAKER_05:But also where is I mean with how that the sequel trilogy happened and the fact that there's still rumors that that's one of the few um Star Wars projects that hasn't been completely killed or at least locked away in a box somewhere, the Ray trilogy, like that's how does that but how is that going to like with the way that episode nine ended, like what do you what do you guys think has to happen in the ray trilogy in order for it to be successful? Like what would have like they say okay, we're moving forward with a ray sequel or a ray trilogy. It's gonna be Ray re-establishing the order, blah blah blah, since she still has the books and all this kind of stuff, right? Like, what would make you guys interested in that trilogy? Because right now, in this moment, I'm not like there's nothing that excites me. Okay Ray.
SPEAKER_09:This guy. This guy if if they if they try to fast forward uh Darth Talon, for example, even though that's already been established and that's a hundred years later, blah blah blah. If they want to back that up and make that person uh the bad guy, I would be interested. Think about it.
SPEAKER_03:She's gonna be in mall though. She's gonna be in mall.
SPEAKER_09:Talon's gonna be a mall.
SPEAKER_04:Baby talon.
SPEAKER_05:I'm not sure I like that. Right. They happen to have a Twilight in who has they said that she is in it. When did the was it a celebration? Yeah. Okay.
SPEAKER_09:Honestly though, honestly though, that could work. That could work. Because this is only gonna be like 40 years ahead of Rey's movie.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I mean, she could still be alive. Twilight seemed to live forever, so that's my point.
SPEAKER_09:That would be okay. If you introduce her here, but then somehow, some way she she's the next big bad in the rain raid trilogy. Great. That works for me. Um, I'd be okay with that. But but but uh what I was gonna say was uh if you remember the episode one, the episode one trailer, people were losing their shit at the end of that trailer when Maul busted out his double-bladed lifesaber. You had a badass bad guy, you had your Vader. Well, you thought you had your Vader of the trilogy. He was only in the the one um movie and it was short-lived. It was a good scene, the whole thing, great, but it was short-lived. If they drag out Talon in the Raid trilogy the way they did Vader in the original, that would work for me. Again, we need we need some kind of compelling arc, which they could start off in the mall story um and eventually get there. I'd be okay with that. For for again, for for most of us who who hate what Star Wars uh had bec has become, a lot of it is it's not because you have the woman lead or all your alphabet shit. It's because the story sucked. Like, if you want to put all that in there, fine. First of all, do it naturally, don't force it and write a good story. That's that's all that's all that matters. Everything else I can I can work with. It's like, oh my god, it's another female lead. Don't care if it's a good story. Oh my god, it's a gay freaking or by or whatever letter you want to use, lead. Don't care if it's a good story. That's all that matters. You want to have your check all your boxes and have uh fucking black trans whatever you need, fine. Do it with a good story and don't focus on the black trans part of it. Just let that be a thing.
SPEAKER_05:And that's so hard for them. Because Jack and I had a conversation and we said we needed a black trans representation in Boom Boom!
SPEAKER_09:I tie my titties down every episode. Got my meds to grow the beard, it's finally working, you know? Shit. I was Louise. Y'all know what's up. I got the French made outfit picture.
SPEAKER_03:I got proof.
SPEAKER_09:I do. I do. Beard and everything. I think I have my mustache going with the goatee with it. So I had I didn't have my meds yet at that point. But all of them anyway only had the goatee. Now look at this. Now I'm catching up with Duke. But um but yeah, you know, I think I think ball's gonna be a great story. The the Ray thing, uh, that's probably dead in the water, just like uh Rean Johnson's trilogy where Kathleen Kennedy lied about him. Um guys hear about that? Where Kathleen Kennedy said he was he was too scared, and Ryan came back and said, I was not scared. What are you talking about? So I was like, I was like, wow, Kathleen, that's on your way out the door trying to throw people on the bus and and lying about it. It's like that's rude. But we'll see.
SPEAKER_03:Star Wars isn't going anywhere.
SPEAKER_09:Agreed, agreed. Dave Dave Dave has an opportunity. Uh I I again, because he shares uh Kathleen's vision, I don't think it's gonna be good. I wish it would have gone to Favro. Favreau is is less on that whole agenda shit, it would seem. Um, just based on a few things, a few comments, a few interviews here and there, he seems less like he's like he just wants to make a good story versus having a a good agenda and then a sub-story. And that's where now if we're gonna talk about here we go again, we can we can talk about ice. Then we can talk about here we go again. Fucking idiot, idiot ass fucking uh citizens. Get out the way of police business. Fuck around, find out. Y'all deserve everything y'all get. Anyway, so yeah. So so anyway, so Lucas Films. So good podcast, guys.
SPEAKER_05:Jack, glad you had a good cruise. Right so much for that.
SPEAKER_09:Right, you got to avoid all that shit of dumbasses acting fools. You have to avoid it all. Wait, I like to think you avoided it all, right? Yeah, you didn't hear about that you got away.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, no, he was on a cruise. He had his own fools.
SPEAKER_09:That's a that's a fair point. That is a very fair ass point, dog. So, oh, okay. So anything anything else on all before we get to the uh football today, the two championship games.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. I mean the two episodes is kind of the the two episodes is gonna be weird, but April.
SPEAKER_09:First week of April.
SPEAKER_05:The two episodes a week is gonna be kind of weird, but it'll be I mean, it it's a release schedule. Would you rather one? Well, the problem, I mean, the whole thing is that they were just trying to have it finish on uh Star Wars Day, right? May the fourth. Yeah. So the only way the only way without them releasing it now or next week or two weeks from now is for them to have released it two episodes at a time.
SPEAKER_09:No, they reached they released it at the beginning of March. It's only it's only eight episodes. Ten episodes. So ten weeks.
SPEAKER_05:But I'm saying they would have to double it, right? So they would have to double the lead time. So if they so that to me, I guess I would be fine with an episode a week. So the two episodes a week is just a weird.
SPEAKER_09:But I I think uh if if they did the ten episodes one a week for ten weeks and started it at the beginning of March, I would have been fine with that. That being said, if I'm going to pick how I'm gonna do it, I'm gonna do it by arc. If a story takes place in two episodes, I'm fine with two episodes a week. Because they finish each story. So if it but if it's four episodes, I would want all four at once.
SPEAKER_05:Um so I don't know how my only concern would be like how uh was the skeleton crew started where the first episode was kind of eh, but then like the second episode, when they did the release, they released the two episodes at the same time. My my concern or whatever for the release schedule for Maul is that they're not confident in the show. So that's why they're doing two to get, you know, maybe it's only half good, right? It's one of those ones where like see, there was I hope I'm proven wrong, but I don't know what else is on the docket, so like they don't they don't want to compete against themselves, right?
SPEAKER_09:So if they have nothing coming out February and March, then I'm with you. It should have been dropped weekly to f you know, once a week, you get whatever Disney Plus thing going. But I don't think they have any other shows. If they did, you don't want them to overlap, so you don't want to compete against yourself. So that makes sense. But if they have nothing coming out February, March, then yeah, this doesn't make any sense at all.
SPEAKER_05:The only thing I could think of would be uh the Percy Jackson stuff, right?
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, and and they don't that different demographics.
SPEAKER_03:Well, Daredevil season two starts in March.
SPEAKER_09:There we go. Okay, now I feel better about that. But what does that leave for February? You see what I mean?
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, you know what? Maybe it was supposed to be Wonder Man, but they decided to switch Wonder Man to cover January, February, and instead that would be Wonderman January, February, then Daredevil, March, and then Mall April, but they cut Wonderman to a single drop, so that changed their schedule.
SPEAKER_05:So on Disney Plus, the only thing I can see for February that's of any note, or you could say would like infringe on any of the rest of these properties is the Muppet Show premieres at the beginning of February. But I don't know how long that is, if it's an ongoing where they're like it used to be with the old Muppet Show, where it was just every week. But I'm looking at the rest of like the I'm looking at the rest of um February. February, and I don't really see anything that would.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, then then again, like in that case, I just hope it's every arc is two episodes and there's five arcs. That that's what I'm hoping for. And they're gonna drop this. It's gonna be great. I think it's I think it's I think it is gonna be great. I think there's gonna the trailer, the animation looks fantastic. The lightsaber uh animation looks uh amazing. They're bringing back uh a couple characters from Clone Wars, um at least the the girl, the one that everybody thought ended up being the armor um from Clone Wars. Um and and I don't know, I don't I didn't pay attention, I don't you know how y'all know how my memory is, uh, unless they've already disputed that, she still could be the armor. Could be. How awesome would that be if at the end of the series you see her switching, you know, her mentality? Yeah, she she switches her mentality and it's all about the Mandalorians, and you and she ends up putting on the outfit um at the end of at the end of mall to become the armor. That would be freaking badass, actually. Um but her, then you've got the the what is it, the first brother or something like that. There's two inquisitors that we've already seen before gonna be in this show. One that was the uh the ghost inquisitor. Was that his name? The ghost one.
SPEAKER_05:Merrick, the head with the one with the super detailed helmet.
SPEAKER_09:There's one there's one from Ahsoka and the one from the Tales of the Tells of the Jedi thing. Yeah. Those two are gonna be in it. So I like that there's some connection there. Um yeah, I'm absolutely looking forward to this show.
SPEAKER_03:It's a good um time frame. It's set in a good time.
SPEAKER_09:It it is. And then Wonder Man, I'm looking for I'm actually looking forward to Wonder Man. I know uh it'll it'll get it'll get dogs uh for whatever reason, probably because a lot of people just don't know it. But I'm I don't know it, and that makes me curious. It makes me want to watch it because I don't know what what this is about. So I think that'll be fun.
SPEAKER_05:Just running through real quick the rest of kind of Disney schedule. Are you guys excited about hoppers at all? That's their next animated movie. It comes out in March.
SPEAKER_09:Um wait, is that the basketball one?
unknown:Nope.
SPEAKER_04:No, it's the one with uh Avatar.
SPEAKER_08:Yeah Avatar.
SPEAKER_05:Uh she goes into the talk to animals and understand what they're saying.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, that one. Yeah, that that looks fun. That one looks fun.
SPEAKER_05:Um Devil Wars Prada 2.
SPEAKER_09:Uh yep, I'm all in on that one.
SPEAKER_05:Mando, of course. Uh two stories.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, I gotta watch the other ones first.
SPEAKER_05:Live action Moana?
SPEAKER_09:Yeah.
SPEAKER_08:No.
SPEAKER_05:Which looks like well, but it looks like at least it's the same people from who did the voices from the movie, right, Jack? No, just the rock. Just the rock, okay. Everybody else is.
SPEAKER_09:If they follow the story, again, I'm not a fan of them live actioning and changing the story. So if you just give me a live action version of what I've already seen in the animation, then I'm in.
SPEAKER_01:And it might be.
SPEAKER_09:Who knows? Yeah, if it is, I'm in. I have no problem with that.
SPEAKER_03:I don't know what that one is, Dean. What is it?
SPEAKER_05:Uh new original animated movie tells the story of an awkward teenage boy and his type A mom discover that what makes him unusual might just be the magical powers that will turn their lives in a secret world of magic upside down. Doesn't look like there's a cast list or anything. That's November, so that'd be a good idea.
SPEAKER_01:Autistic movie?
SPEAKER_05:I don't know. Maybe just hexed.
SPEAKER_09:She's type A and he's on the cusp or something like that.
SPEAKER_03:Not a set of menophant.
SPEAKER_05:Uh and then of course Doomsday. Doomsday at the end of the year for them. Never heard of it.
SPEAKER_09:That's the that's the DC guy, right? The one who killed Superman.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah. Yep.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_04:The gray one. Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, yeah, yeah. With the rock beard. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:He looks like Thanos, but he's gray.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, yeah, yeah. That dude. Real spiky.
SPEAKER_05:Alright. So the reason that we haven't done a podcast in three weeks.
SPEAKER_09:No, not yet. Let him wrap up that with that story.
SPEAKER_05:Oh, okay. Wait, what story? What are we doing? So uh okay, then I guess we'll go.
SPEAKER_09:We're doing you, Jack, but we're doing you at the end. In the end. Oh yeah. I mean I mean later.
SPEAKER_05:That'll be the title of this episode, Spit Roasting Jack at the End.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, sometimes you need that spit. Yeah. Sometimes you just got two of that.
SPEAKER_05:Okay, I mean we could touch on football because we got to announce the first round of teams from the street. Yeah, there's been a lot of football since that time we had. And then none of those teams are in the playoffs anymore. So it looks like we're having the Patriots and uh the Seahawks are gonna be in the next in this year's Super Bowl. Uh, how do you guys feel about that?
SPEAKER_03:Um I'm just ready for Bad Bunny to come out and address.
SPEAKER_05:Are you interested in with the Hills? Are you interested? Are you interested at all in the game outside of uh interested at all?
SPEAKER_09:I think we're making other plans already, so um I got I gotta say as a football fan, I'm interested in the Super Bowl. I don't have interest in either team. Um Belichick is no longer with the Patriots, so I don't have to hate him as much. Uh Brady's no longer with the Patriots, I don't have to hate him as much. Uh head coach Mike Vabel played for the Steelers at one point. Um the Patriots are are a super racist fan base, so that's not good. Uh the Seahawks never really hated or liked them, but their quarterback went to USC, so I'm kind of leaning there. And Darnold had a long path to get there, so kudos to him. He went from y'all remember Monday Night Football, he's seen ghosts when he was with the Jets, and now here he is taking his team. Well, let's be real, his defense took his team, uh for the most part, to the supernatural not uh not hindering his team.
SPEAKER_05:Let's say that.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, that that's that's a better that's a better way to put it. This is not last year, Sam Darnold. Uh so I'll be rooting for the Seahawks, but I gotta say, I don't really care all that much. Uh the halftime show, I will absolutely be turning it.
SPEAKER_03:Um I have new every year, so don't think that it's political for Lou. He never watches a halftime show.
SPEAKER_09:Very good point. It's I I might I might have watched two in the last 15 years, 10 years or so. Uh I usually switch to the puppy bowl at that point because it's cute and entertaining.
SPEAKER_05:Uh I usually switch to YouTube and watch the Prince halftime show because that is the best halftime show ever.
SPEAKER_09:Are you sure?
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Versus Michael Jackson's halftime show? I think Princess was better. That motherfucker was out there while it was pouring rain in four-inch heels, playing a guitar like a motherfucker. Purple rain. Yep. Like you ain't lying though.
SPEAKER_09:He he he he did a number on that halftime show. But Michael Jackson. I give credit.
SPEAKER_05:I mean, Michael Jackson, of course, but I mean, I feel like the the stories that you heard about the Prince show where like literally people were afraid that he was going to electrocute himself, electrocute, and he was just like, I'm good, let's fucking do this shit. Like, you're like, okay, like Prince was just like Prince was making pancakes for everybody on that day. That's all I'm saying.
SPEAKER_09:He was exactly game, blouses. I don't think any of Chicago, Indianapolis Super Bowl. I think it was what Super Bowl that was.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, it was a Chicago.
SPEAKER_09:No, it was I would put those two up there though, right?
SPEAKER_03:Prince and Michael Jackson uh for sure. I felt like Justin Timberlakes. Wow. Pervert. Wow.
SPEAKER_09:Right? All his white is showing. Damn. Wait, you're gonna call pervert when I just brought up Michael Jackson in the Super Bowl. I wonder, I wonder if if that Super Bowl performance will be in the movie. Um for sure. You think so? Okay. I wasn't I wasn't sure if they're gonna like do they need NFL rights and all that stuff and they didn't want to pay him. And if you know that that's what I'm getting at. You would think that iconic moment will be the the Pepsi hair fire thing. Uh that'll that should be in there, all these little things, but but you never know. You never know where they're gonna go with that.
SPEAKER_05:So uh but as far as like the NFL goes, I don't think any of the playoffs were surprising at all. Like there was no teams or no uh none of the things.
SPEAKER_09:Buffalo, Buffalo choking? That was surprising to me.
SPEAKER_06:Buffalo was choked for years, though. That was a thing.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, yeah, yeah. I I totally get that. And I don't mean in that sense, but at least one you would think one time, one time they would get it together, and Josh Allen, honestly, he did not do well.
SPEAKER_05:Well, and that's a thing. I mean, the Bills really haven't done anything beyond Josh Allen to improve their team by any stretch, right? Like you see the receiving four dudes as garbage up, but I also feel like a lot of that stuff has been you're replacing one cog with the same cog. That was always the problem with the Patriots, is that they would have these guys who would always excel at moments that they needed to. There was always somebody who would just had done, you know, you're after Gian branches and those types of characters where like maybe they'd been on the team two or three times and they'd been released or traded and came back and hadn't had any notoriety, and then something comes up in the playoffs, and all of a sudden they're like they have that one game, Devin McCordy, all of those, you know, they have that one game that just makes them, you know, legends, you know, even though the rest of their gate, the rest of their uh the rest of their um career is pretty mediocre, but they were they were always able to figure out something, and that's not the Bills. The Bills have never been able to find somebody to they've always relied on Josh Allen, and they've ridden Josh Allen for six years now, and it's not working for them. And they've never had anybody else on the team step up and say, let me let me take the ball too, right? And that was always the Patriots teaching.
SPEAKER_09:James Cook the last couple years has the problem though is they haven't had a wide receiver crew uh to compliment uh uh Dawson Knox and uh the oh my god, the other tight end, uh James Cook and then Josh Allen. You you your your receiving core is fucking Keon Coleman, who's a bust, and he had to bring back Gabe Davis, who's not a bust, but he's not a number one either. Um until they get a number one, Buffalo is not going anywhere. Their defense is solid, it's all enough anyway. But their head coach, uh I'm absolutely for him getting fired. He's the Tony Dungey, Tampa Bay Bucks, you know. For example, Tampa y'all if y'all remember, you know, 25 years ago, uh Tony Dungey. Um I I I I at that point I've been alive about 425 years, so uh uh so for me it's like yesterday. But when that happened, it was like Tony Dungey had this great ass Bucks team and couldn't get him over the hump. They bring in John Gruden and he gets him over the hump. Great. I think the same thing could happen here with Buffalo. Something somebody like Mike Tomlin comes into Buffalo and that team wins the Super Bowl next year. That that's that's how it could be because I just don't that coach has failed that team for six years. And I and I think whoever, whoever it doesn't have to be Tomlin, I'm just saying I say Gruden because Gruden was a name at the time, he was great, blah blah blah. Uh uh he left the Raiders uh or got fired from the Raiders, came over to Tampa, and when they played the Raiders in the Super Bowl, they fucking owned them. He knew the Raiders team and owned them. So I think you could actually have a coach like Tomlin or somebody else with that pedigree go to Buffalo, Buffalo's in a Super Bowl, and and beat whatever NFC team shows up next year. Um damn might.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, yeah. Um the pit has been really good. I'm enjoying that. We're we're two episodes in on that. The third episode, I think, dropped over the weekend while I was out, so I need to catch up on that.
SPEAKER_03:How far into Pluribus are you? I think we have like one or two episodes left. Great, right? Isn't it great? It is. Like, I didn't I didn't know where it was going at first. I'm like, all right, this is weird. But by the end of the first episode, I'm like, done. I I'm gonna finish this. Yeah. 100%.
SPEAKER_05:But that but tell me you weren't skeeved out a couple times during that first episode.
SPEAKER_03:Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Like where you I was just like, like, nope. Because then now I go into the office and I'm like, oh, there's a box of donuts. Nope.
SPEAKER_03:When you watch it, Lou, you'll understand. I would totally be the French guy though. Like, yes, bring me Air Force One. Yeah, bring me Scarlet Johansson. What's Natalie Portman doing?
SPEAKER_05:So, but that show's now done, Lou, so you can watch that show.
SPEAKER_09:That's on Apple TV, though. Apple one? Okay. I can finally use my my freebie.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. And you guys and then F1's on there too. So if you didn't watch that. Oh, you did watch that though.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, I saw that theater.
SPEAKER_05:Uh and I enjoyed that movie. Shrink in season three is coming out, so I think that premieres next week? Two weeks, something like that.
SPEAKER_09:Is that like penises in cold water or something? What is going on?
SPEAKER_05:Exactly. It's just it's videos of guys dunking their dick and balls in cold water.
SPEAKER_09:And then see what happens.
SPEAKER_05:No, it's the shrink of the first. It's a comedy.
SPEAKER_09:Who has an inny now?

No, actually, if you watch the hot ones, he was on hot ones this week. He actually tells a story about his parents. He had he didn't tell them before they went to go see Forgetting Sarah Marshall and his dick's out in like the first five minutes, and he said his mom walked out of the theater. Wow. And like did like the group, like did the group text of group family text, do not go see this movie. She was so upset because he didn't give her a heads up on it. Ah, heads up. Um but no, shrinking.
SPEAKER_09:I don't I don't think I would have either. That would have been too entertaining. No, yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Shrinking is shrinking is Jason Siegel and Harrison Ford as therapist, but it's really funny.
SPEAKER_09:Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_05:So there shrinks. Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:I think I may have seen one or two trailers of that. That did look pretty good.

SPEAKER_09:Um you're lucky it ain't Martin Luther King weekend anymore. I might be offended.
SPEAKER_05:Uh Steve Zahn was in it.
SPEAKER_09:Nah, no, I can No, there is a show that I thought was on Apple Plus. Um, but the actor I can see his face, but but I I don't know his name. Well, there's also somebody who would have been in like the office or something.
SPEAKER_05:Well, there was there's also a show called For All Mankind where uh so they it's like uh all it's like a different timeline, and it's the US and the uh Soviets both populate the moon at the same time. So it's about becoming a space race, but it like pivots, becomes like branches off and becomes its own thing. Um like the end of the first episode, the US is on the planet, and then they like get out and then they see like a Russian flag. Like that's kind of cool.
SPEAKER_09:Not the one I was thinking of, because again, I got I gotta see a trade. Again, and then I'll be like, hey guys, it was remember that guy? It was this guy. He's usually a comedian, he's usually in like comedies and he's in like this severance isn't. Is that what I'm thinking of?

Like going and I I will I I would actually go buy shit and sell it at whatever fees for me to break even and have absolute blast doing it.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah. Yeah, I remember the stuff.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, that's all it is. Just to be able to get it and then it's like, okay, I got it. Okay. I know it's going for whatever. As long as I get my money back, good enough. I don't even have to. It's like, oh, I I gotta go for the ones that are three or four times. No, I just gotta get it, and then I feel good and I sell it and I move on. It's it's that's it's it's that what is it, fishing, I guess? The way people do the fishing and they throw the fish back. And then people are like, I don't get why you do that.
SPEAKER_08:Throw the fish back.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, the catch-release people, that would be me as a fisherman. I'd be like, I ain't trying to gut this motherfucker. Uh-uh. Uh, first of all, I have to have gloves on just to pick it out of there. I mean, I'll be I'll be out there in my little my little two-person boat with gloves on fishing. Uh yeah, I know.
SPEAKER_05:Uh old girl taking that picture. You goddamn it, Lou. That shit was fucking hilarious. And I know it wasn't set up. Like, there was no like, hey Lou, this would be funny if you did this. You were just like, Lou just living his life.
SPEAKER_09:I picked that cookie up and was like, nope. I instantly dropped it. I have my cargo pants on, went to the front right pocket, grabbed the glove, and was like, This is yeah, we ain't, we ain't dude. I this is the first time Golden Corral had a cookie that greasy. Usually I just grabbed, they're fine. That time it was not fine, and I wasn't having it. I had to use two gloves that day because I would obviously for the shrimp, you know, I wasn't gonna touch that. So I had a glove for the shrimp during regular dinner, but when I got to dessert, I was like, Oh, it'll be fine, it'll be fine. No, I was ugly, it was funny because she she was laughing at me, and I was like, What are you laughing at? She's like, Your face, you look so disgusted by that cookie that it made me laugh. I'm like, oh. Because I obviously I don't know I'm making a face, uh, but apparently I had this this is the most disgusting thing uh on the planet face, and she just started busting up laughing, and I was like, uh-uh. I was like, I will eat this cookie and I'm gonna enjoy it. And same thing. I took like four or five home, and the next day put on a glove and ate the rest of the cookies. So you should have just wrapped them in like paper towels or something, suck all the grease out. They were well they were in they were in the golden crown napkins. Uh when I wrapped because I didn't cause because usually I bring a Ziploc or something to put the cookies in so I can take them with you. Uh you know, flap you in a buffet. Come on, now there are rules, son.
SPEAKER_05:I just like how he said that's so flat. Of course you do. Like the most judgy comment without no judgment.
SPEAKER_09:I mean, I'm gonna own it. That's fine. Sometimes they have good shit, and I was like, ooh, I can't eat all this, but I'll take some with me. So ziplocks.
SPEAKER_05:But hey, that's a perfect transition uh to go from one buffet to another buffet. Why we haven't recorded uh recorded a podcast in two weeks. Um uh one of us on this uh on this podcast has been busy cruising the world and spending a ton of time at Disney World and sending pictures of great food and amazing. Because we know the black dude didn't get on a ship and so yeah, and sand and sand and sand.
SPEAKER_03:I'm like, oh, I got internet on this island. I'm gonna send a picture to Lou. My sandy ass feet.
SPEAKER_09:Yep, and then and then after that, I didn't look at the Discord for the rest of the day. I was like, there might be more of these. Like, I'm missing notice I didn't respond. I didn't no stories. I just like how come Lou ain't responding. I'm like, no, I'm done.
SPEAKER_03:You wait until it scrolls up.
SPEAKER_09:I did. I waited the next day. I was like, you have 14 missed messages. Okay, that's enough. Like I can I can get I can look again.
SPEAKER_05:Dude, that's a light day. There was sometime when you mugs were talking, and I'd be like at work and I wouldn't pay attention for an hour, and I'd come back and be like, you have 30. I was trying to do a screenshot, but my but my phone kept going from 35 messages to like whatever the last message was. So I couldn't get a screenshot where it'd be like, You've missed 35 messages. I'm what the fuck is going on? What is so important for you to be talking about right now? Quiz.
SPEAKER_03:Quiz. Quiz. Likely, likely. Yeah, because when I was um live streaming, so you guys could partake. Um, so yeah, so um we went on a seven-night cruise on the Disney Treasure. It's not their newest ship. Their third newest, isn't it? Third newest, yeah, because then the destiny came out and then the adventures launching later this year. Um it's a wish class ship, so it's the same as The Wish, which we've been on twice. Um but seven nights is the longest we've done. So we left Friday morning, not super early, early enough. Got to Orlando, um got our rental car, and we had to go eat at the melting pot because we don't have those out here anymore. So sad.
SPEAKER_09:Is that the Fondue place?
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:We have a couple out here I've just never been to.
SPEAKER_05:It's perfect, Lou. You get a fork and you poke everything, so you don't ever have four forks, yeah, and they're color-coded, so you know which one's yours.
SPEAKER_09:Ooh, I like that. Very organized.
SPEAKER_05:Now I'm interested in going.
SPEAKER_03:And it's crazy because the dude that served us, he's like, Oh, you guys have been here before. We're like, Yes. He remembered you? Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Wow.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. I mean, granted, the last time we were there was probably in June, but still.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, okay, okay. Yeah, but it's it's only been a good thing. That's how many hundreds of thousands of people that have been since then.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. Because he's on like international drive, so it's like the main like drag where the convention center and shit is.
SPEAKER_05:So no, that was thankfully nobody in your family is memorable in any way, shape, or form or likes to uh make a scene about themselves every single and tell entire life stories about her mother's torn miscus that she had to have surgery.
SPEAKER_09:Only you had one of those in your group.
SPEAKER_03:Her slip dick. Um so then we got up not super early.
SPEAKER_09:Um what time was drive uh loading date? What time was loading time? Whatever they call it. Um I know, but what time? What time?
SPEAKER_03:Uh shit. Eleven or after ish. It was early weeks because we already operated. Because yeah, so we got um pixie dusted up to concierge, which is like five thousand dollars more than what we paid.
SPEAKER_09:So per person or total?
SPEAKER_03:Total for the room.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, thank god. I was like, holy shit.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, no. Disney ain't gonna give you that much.
SPEAKER_09:That's what I'm saying. That's 20 grand before y'all.
SPEAKER_03:So we get to the car rental place to drop our car off, and it is fucking packed. Like there's people that are getting off the cruise ships, people that are trying to drop off their cars, also. It was a fucking mess. My wife, I think, legit had a panic attack over the whole thing.
SPEAKER_09:Did did you think you needed to rent a car for one day?
SPEAKER_03:Uh versus public stuff or or Uber or taxi or something like that. As you know, my wife is a control freak.
SPEAKER_09:Just a little bit.
SPEAKER_03:She's not a fan of dealing with all that. How she survived in Japan with us for a week without having her own car, beyond me. But yeah, she likes to have a rental car while we're out there. It's super convenient. She's not wrong. But she won one.
SPEAKER_09:Well, I was just thinking for the one day. It's like after you guys got back, it would have made sense, but you're only there Friday, really, after the night. Yeah, it's less than 24 hours. And I was like, even for one day, okay.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, no, she won her own car. But I mean, we could have got Disney Transport from the airport to the room at Animal Kingdom Lodge, and then from Animal Kingdom Lodge to the port. But, you know, I'm not the travel agent here, so I just go with it. All right. But once that snafu was all done, um, we did get our shuttle from the car rental over to the ship, got on the ship. Um, this is your first time, first time on the treasure? Yes. Okay.
SPEAKER_09:Were were you guys on time with the whole traffic jam that was happening with rent a car?
SPEAKER_03:No, we were a little late, but I mean, once we get there, because we're concierge and our time already passed, there's like whatever, go ahead. Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Okay. Because if you're a normal bag, and if you're a normal person, I think boarding's at like three o'clock or something, right? It's like later in the day. Different times. Yeah. Yeah, there's different times. Different times. But yeah, the normal people here are usually later in the day.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah. That way the the the concierge and and the and the high rollers basically can get in, get their lunch, and do but do a bunch of stuff before everybody else comes and ruins it. Not not like ruin it at carnival, but ruin it because of this shit.
SPEAKER_03:But make it like people-y.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, exactly.
SPEAKER_03:That's I don't biggest problem with true ships, all the people on them.
SPEAKER_05:Um that's the problem in most situations, is just the people that are there, not necessarily the actual activity. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Um, but no, I mean, it's a nice ship. The wish class is nice, they're huge. Um, the statue on the atrium is Aladdin and Jasmine on the carpet. Um was concierge worth it.
SPEAKER_05:The first part. Sorry, getting on the boat.
SPEAKER_03:Did concierge make it easier than yeah, because like there were a ton of people waiting, like for their arrival times and stuff already.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_03:But we're like, hey, bruh, concierge. Okay, cool. Just follow this person, go talk to them. Then we went right in. Like, even once you get into the building, they have separate lines for concierge and like Pearl members that have done like 50 cruises or something. You're almost not me yet. No, I wish. Um but yeah, no, write in, write it up. They check your passport and everything, get you on, they get you to uh another concierge person who takes you to the concierge lounge, you chill there for a minute, then you go right onto the ship. Super easy.
SPEAKER_09:Refreshments in the lounge?
SPEAKER_03:Yes. Yeah, like uh just like a a soda, freezer, water, coke.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, yeah, yeah. Something I wasn't thinking crazy. Yeah, yeah. No, something available.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. And then we go on the ship and we get our own um dining room for concierge lunch. Um, was in the 1923 restaurant. So you go in there and you get a nice little lunch, sandwiches, and ice cream and shit. Delicious. Um, our room was early, was ready earlier than the pours. So we got to go to our room, dump our backpacks. What level of room were you at? We were on deck 13.
SPEAKER_05:No, like what what type of what type of room did you have? Like what was it?
SPEAKER_03:It was like a deluxe family veranda. Veranda. So you had a balcony. Yeah. Yeah, we've never done interior yet. Again, somebody in my family is very bougie. It's not me. It's the oldest.
SPEAKER_09:I I think I think I my first cruise I'd I'd probably want, or I'd not want, but I'd be fine for the cheapest, whatever, just to get the experience to see if I like it. But room like like I told you guys last year. I I want a room. I don't care about the balcony. That isn't a I mean old girl might want one, but I don't give a shit. I just want the porthole thing where the water where you're at the water level. I think that would be neat.
SPEAKER_03:That's where the pores go, Lou. Oh.
SPEAKER_05:Have you not watched Lou? Have you ever watched Titanic? Those people don't make it out.
SPEAKER_09:No, I did not watch Titanic. We we had this discussion.
SPEAKER_03:No, that's when we went on um Carnival, that's where our room was. It was like at the water level. I'm like, that's kind of cool, but also kind of creepy.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, yeah, but that that's what excites me about it. When I was watching, when I watch YouTube videos and the the lady who does does all that shit, and I'm sitting there watching different rooms, I'm like, don't get me wrong, the balcony ones, nice with a deck, whatever it's called, those ones are nice and all, but I think it would be cool to be at that water level. I was like, that seems badass in a in a game, in a creepy kind of way.
SPEAKER_03:On the Disney ships, if you get an interior room, you get a virtual porthole. So it's like a TV almost, and it's just like outside, like the Galactic Star Cruiser.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:Can I can I can I make it be the water level?
SPEAKER_05:Maybe. I don't know. Just put a water glass in front of it. It'll be fine.
SPEAKER_09:I guess I could do that. Just get like a round ball. But it was a nice room.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I mean, it's it's a cruise. It's Disney and a cruise. So I mean, they're very nice. Everybody's like, oh, they're so expensive.
SPEAKER_09:And how's this sleeping? Is it like a couch bed or the the pull-down bunk bed? Or like what do we got here?
SPEAKER_03:The wife and I got a it's usually it's like a I think because it was concierge, it was like a king-size bed, super nice mattress. And for the girls, there's a pull-down bunk, and the couch under the pull-down bunk comes out, but we also had a Murphy bed, so we could have slept five in there. They chose not to use the Murphy bed, so just left extra room on the floor, I guess.
SPEAKER_09:So do you pay for the room or do you pay per person?
SPEAKER_03:The room.
SPEAKER_05:But the room is in a oh, I guess did I don't know Disney, but I know the times that I've looked up cruises, the room is generally for like two people. And if you add people on, there is additional fees for the additional people. I mean, likely. Yeah. Unless it's kids. I think kids sometimes are are different. Like if it was the four of us, like if it was when we went to Disneyland, if it was if it was the three of us and and uh old girl, like we would have paid for a room for four people with the first two people being included in what the price is and the other two people having to pay an additional fee. Right.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, okay. So so for something like this, and with that example, if I cruise by myself or if I cruise with old girls, the same price.
SPEAKER_03:Correct. Pretty much, yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Unless you're there are there are some cruise lines that do do solo travelers, but there's not a ton of them. And so they're somewhat hard to get because there's not a ton of solo, most of the cruise ships are you know pushing towards couples, families, that type of thing. So there's some of the cruises have or cruise lines have embraced solo traveling a little bit more, but those rooms are usually a little bit so if like if our normal room is gonna be fifteen hundred dollars, like a single room's gonna be eleven hundred. So it's not like a huge difference, but yeah, if you traveled by yourself, it'd be fifteen hundred dollars. If it was you and old girl, it'd be fifteen hundred dollars.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, let's be let's be very clear. That's all hypothetical. If I tried to cruise without old girl, I'm I'm getting my head chopped off. So I'm just I'm just gonna be.
SPEAKER_05:You're not coming back, you're not moving, you're not coming back to Denver. You're having people go into your house and pack up your shit that's not that didn't get burnt.
SPEAKER_08:Yeah, that yeah, that I was gonna say like I said, now just hypothetical. I'll just curious. Okay, all right.
SPEAKER_03:I'm looking at one, it's a four night cruise, and it'll break it down per price. Okay, so I did four adults. So the first two adults are 668 each. Additional adults are 336 each. Taxes, fees, forward expenses, 594. Total price is 2603, and this is a four night um Vancouver Indian and San Diego. Disney Cruise or just cruise?
SPEAKER_09:Not Disney Cruise. I don't know. Disney left out of Vancouver. That's cool. Yeah. Yeah, so wait, 2600 for four people? That's not a lot at all. That's like that's a four nights. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I get it, but that's still not a lot.
SPEAKER_03:I'm I'm I would have thought something like that would have been like 2600 for two people. Uh let me see. Let me see what the that's not that's cool. What the um the itinerary is on that. Let's see. So you're not going to be able to do that. Itinerary is day one. Yeah, she started in Vancouver. Day at sea, day at sea, day at sea, San Diego. So this one is just three days at sea.
SPEAKER_09:That's my stock.
SPEAKER_03:Which isn't horrible. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah. Um honestly.
SPEAKER_09:Except I'd have to fly to Vancouver and then leave out of and then drive from San Diego.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, or flight from San Diego, depending. So you go from San Diego to usually Catalina. So this one you can do San Diego, Catalina, and Sonata, back home. No C Day.
SPEAKER_09:So so now that you've done the seven day, do you prefer it? Or are you like, no, that's too long. Can we split the different days?
SPEAKER_03:I was worried I would get bored. Right. Um but I didn't. Um, so our itinerary was so we left Florida on Saturday. Um, I feel like we had a C day the second day. And then we were Sunday.
SPEAKER_05:I think Sunday was a C day for you. I think you did you started doing your trivias on Sunday.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. And then um we went to Mexico.
SPEAKER_01:I don't remember.
SPEAKER_03:But we had like three ports, so we went to I don't even know anymore. It was forever.
SPEAKER_09:Cosimo?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, Cozumel was one. Um Jamaica and Grand Cayman. And then to Castaway. Castaway Bay Disney Island. Castaway K?
SPEAKER_05:Castaway K? Yeah. Key. Key. That's how they were key. I think there's two, isn't there? There's Key and then.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, there's I think I think all the cruise lines basically have their own little island. They do lately, yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Um but no, I mean so when we were at the the car rental place, you see all these people with like their 12 packs of sodas and everything, right? Because on other cruise lines, you have to buy soda. It's not included. So people bring their own soda, but with Disney, you can get soda all day, every day. It's all included.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, did they they'll let you bring 12 packs and stuff like that?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, on the other ships.
SPEAKER_05:It's usually it's usually limited, though. There's like a limit. Like you can bring two bottles, you can bring two bottles of wine and you can bring two 12-packs or one, depending on the length of the cruise. A lot of it depends on the length of the cruise, too.
SPEAKER_08:Okay, okay.
SPEAKER_05:Um, so when you were looking at the 12-pack people, you were like, Oh, you've been on other cruise lines, but you ain't been on Disney before, right?
SPEAKER_03:Like I'm like, look at those pores over there going on carnival.
SPEAKER_09:Lou, where's your clothes? I got my clothes in my backpack, the rest of my suitcases all soda.
SPEAKER_03:Um But no, it was good. Um, we hadn't done one that long. So the ones that we usually do, there's a show every night in the theater. So it's like a Broadway style show, right? But with this being seven nights, and they only have like three shows, I'm like, well, what are we doing the rest of the time? So I think one night there was one or two nights there was actually nothing. But then uh one night there was this uh comedian magician dude named Jonathan Burns. He was on um America's Got Talent or something. He was a goofy looking dude, but he put on a pretty good show. And Little One got volunteered to go up on stage. She freaking lost her mind. She was laughing the whole time.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, the video shows it.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_09:She had a blast.
SPEAKER_03:Um then second that was these dudes called The Flyboys. They're like Richard Cheese. They're they do like pop songs, but like in the swinging. What do they they describe themselves as Frank Sinatra and Bruno Mars having a baby?
SPEAKER_09:Okay.
SPEAKER_03:So I it was a good show. I didn't mind it. Um, but the Disney shows uh was the first one was it's called Seize the Adventure, S-E-A-S, The Adventure. Even though we were on the treasure and not the adventure, but whatever. Um so that one was a Disney one. It was all um Captain Minnie went to go do stuff, so she put Goofy in charge, and Tinkerbell did some shit, and then Moana comes out, and Hercules and whole musical numbers, and a good time is had by all. Uh the other one.
SPEAKER_09:No, that's a bunch of IPs crossing over that uh-uh.
SPEAKER_05:When you're on the boat, it doesn't matter, Lou.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, yeah, when you're on the boat, everyone's gonna be a little bit more than Disneyland. You can't have fucking Tinkerbell with Moana. What the hell, man?
SPEAKER_03:It happens. It happens.
SPEAKER_09:Not to me, you have to call the walkout. It's like me out of here.
SPEAKER_02:So the walking out five minutes said, fuck this shit. Get me off at the next port. Fuck this boat.
SPEAKER_07:Moana never would have met Tinkerbell. Get me out of here.
SPEAKER_03:Uh so then the next show. Give me my 250 back. Um, so then the next show was Moana, which was really good. Did not have Tinkerbell in it, it was just Moana. Um and then the last one was Beauty and the Beast, also good. Um, and then on this ship, instead of the hyperspace times, they have the Haunted Mansion, which was super cool. Um, they have like a fish ghost tank in the middle of the room. They're playing Haunted Mansion music the whole time. Um the paintings on the wall are really well done. I was sitting there with Big One and I'm like, this is really cool. So I touched the paintings and it feels like an oil painting, right? But if you back up, like you can see like they move and stuff. So whatever projections or whatever they do on them is amazing. They have them textured so it feels like a real oil ball. It was crazy. Um, but it was a really cool lounge bar area. I did not spend as much time there as I was hoping to, so I got busy doing other shit. But it was really cool. Um and right outside of there is um the Skipper Society, which is just like an open lounge bar area based on jungle cruise. Not as many jungle cruise jokes as I had hoped, but that's where a lot of the trivian stuff takes place, too. So there were a bunch of lame jokes told by the hosts of trivia, but they weren't jungle cruising.
SPEAKER_09:You'll have to be loud and and and fill in.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. Pretty much. I don't I know me. And then for dinner, we had rotational dining. Um, so 1923, it's like an old 1920s fancy kind of restaurant.
SPEAKER_08:They didn't have to be a little bit more.
SPEAKER_03:Okay, so when you go on a Disney cruise, they your dinner is rotational buffet or rotational dining. So you'll go you there's three restaurants on the ship. So the first night um we had 1923, which is like a fancy 1920s kind of steak and lobster kind of um deal. Um, that's cool. And then there's also Marvel. Yeah, exactly. Then there's uh uh Worlds of Marvel. You go in and Ant Man and Wasp are putting on a demonstration of pin particles and stuff while you're eating. Spider-Man Witches.
SPEAKER_09:Hold on. This is in 1923 or different restaurants? No, no, no. This is uh Worlds of Marvel. It's another restaurant. Okay, so World of Marvel is not a show that's happening in 1923 at the Donald Trump.
SPEAKER_03:No, no, no, no. 1923, there's no show, no nothing. You just sit there and eat dinner and stare at old Disney art on the walls. Gotcha. Which has its charm. Um, World of Marvel, um, Scotland Wasper. Yes.
SPEAKER_08:That that's what threw me. Okay.
SPEAKER_03:So they're doing a demonstration for Pim Particles. There's a whole show. Ultron comes out and Miss Marvel and Captain America and stuff. It's a whole thing.
SPEAKER_05:It's a lot of but it is but it is canon.
SPEAKER_03:Yes.
SPEAKER_05:So that's the wild part is like that show is in canon, but the only way you've ever seen that show is by going on a Disney cruise.
SPEAKER_03:Yep, pretty much. And Ant Man does um bring up the fact why he couldn't shriek down and go up Thanos' butthole and blow him up while you're eating dinner. But then Hope stops him. He's like, I've seen a lot of chatter on the internet about why I didn't shriek down and enter Thanos in a very creative way. So I'm gonna tell you how that will not work. And Hope's like, No, you're not.
SPEAKER_09:I want to know why it wouldn't work. It seems like it will work.
SPEAKER_03:And then the third restaurant they have is uh Coco, which was really cool. So you like go to like um Miguel's city and stuff, and it happens to be a little bit more than a little bit.
SPEAKER_09:Is that the one where little little one was staring the whole time? You you mentioned something of okay, oh yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, she was in love with Miguel. But we actually had a close seat right up to the stage too, so that was pretty cool. So the way the rotational dining works is you have your same servers every night, like they get to know you, like oh, you ordered a Coke last night, they'll have a Coke ready for you when you come and see. Okay, gotcha. Um, you like your food a certain way, they start knowing all that, right? Um so the buffet is closed during dinner, so you can't do a buffet at dinner, but it is open for breakfast and lunch. So you can go upstairs to the buffet and pick the fuck out if you want. Uh so so that's three.
SPEAKER_09:Do you have restaurant breakfast and lunch also? Or do you have to buffet?
SPEAKER_03:Not in the same way. There's some restaurants that are open for breakfast and lunch, um, but they're just open open. Like you're not getting your servers necessarily. Um just first come, first serve type thing. Pretty much, yeah. Separately billed or it's still included? No, it's all included. Okay. No, once you get on a Disney ship, the only thing you're paying for is alcohol and souvenirs. Unless you're concierge.
SPEAKER_09:Oh wow. And popcorn.
SPEAKER_03:And popcorn. Unless you're concierge. Um otherwise, they have the food court also. And so there they have tacos, and there was a barbecue, a burger place, a pizza place. 24 hours? Um no. Variable. Like they open late breakfast, early lunch.
SPEAKER_09:I'd just be like, if it's three in the morning, I'm hungry. Could I find something to eat?
SPEAKER_03:Room service. Yeah, but also room service is included. You want room service? You can call them at 3 a.m. And that is included.
unknown:Oh.
SPEAKER_05:And homeboy, you'll have a you have an attendant that is like with you 24 hours. It might be like two different people. There'll be like a daytime guy and a nighttime guy, but that's the person that's going to come in, like, turn down your sheets before you go to bed at night. And then in the morning, another your the other guy will come in and make your bed and clean the bathroom and all that kind of stuff. Like oh. Okay. So you could call, you'll get too much. And it's all very ranked. Pretty much on time, Lou. You know, whatever.
SPEAKER_03:It's not cheesecake on time, but it's very on time. It's no more than like a minute or something on time. That's the other rep.
SPEAKER_09:Um I'm trying to get as much information as I can because old girl and I were talking about it, and we don't have a lot planned for 2027. All we really have is is uh celebration and and and comic-con.
SPEAKER_01:Oh.
SPEAKER_09:So I Dominican Republic! Is that what I heard? Was security needed?
SPEAKER_03:Take me off the mailing list.
SPEAKER_09:Bruh. When I saw we need security, I'm like, why the hell is he gonna choose a place that requires security? That don't make any sense. That's a whole separate story. But uh anyways, yeah. So end of end of 27 might be an opportunity uh end of next year for us to cruise.
SPEAKER_03:All you have to do is say the word and my wife will have it done.
SPEAKER_09:Well, just put us in the shit right now, actually. Will you guys start planning end of 27? Uh, like definitely not the beginning, not the middle, because of the other things going on, April and um and July. But if you guys got yourself a fall, late fall cruise, uh keep in mind that the two of us are likely gonna be in.
SPEAKER_05:But with that being said, Lou, if you just want to do a short cruise to see how you like it, I would be down with doing a short Disney cruise like a San Diego, like the one Jack was talking about. Yeah, that's a three-dayer. I'm in not the Vancouver one, the three-dayer, where you're at you're you go out of San Diego, Catalina, and Sonata, back to San Diego. And that'll be a good that'll be a good slice for you to see if you yeah. Yep.
SPEAKER_03:I yeah, I agree with that. Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:I always said I wanted to do a three-day one first. I don't care like if it's the Alaskan, if it's the whatever. Um, I want to end maybe in 10 years. Uh, not that it'll be my last cruise, but sometime work my way up to the one, that Norwegian one, I think, that goes around the UK with different stops at the different and you know, the different countries and the UK. It leaves out of Amsterdam, then it goes around uh the UK and then back to Amsterdam. That one is on my list, but that's like you know, 60th birthday type thing.
SPEAKER_06:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_09:So, okay, what do you do with some first? But so that's your point. Yeah, yeah, Duke. I'm definitely down for that.
SPEAKER_05:So just for a to summarize the dinners, so then we don't so we can move on to the other stuff. This so that covers three nights. What did you guys do for the other four nights for dinner?
SPEAKER_03:So you actually end up going to question all the restaurants at least twice, one three times, because there's a pirate night. Oh Pirate Night, we had where were we Pirate Night? I feel like we were in Marvel for Pirate Night, but it's a different menu. Um, but again, we've never done a cruise this long before, so you go back to the same restaurants, but they actually had different menus those nights, so that was kind of cool.
SPEAKER_09:And then oh, so repeat restaurant different menu.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. That's cool. So like even the Marvel had like Marvel trivia during dinner because they didn't do Ant-Man and Wasp again, because I've already seen all that. So they did have like a Marvel trivia. Uh in Coco, um they went further with the story. Like the the dead ancestors, dead relatives came back and did music and stuff. Um so it was kind of cool. Um but yeah, no, all that shit's included. So once you pay your$2,000 a room, it's done.
SPEAKER_09:So if uh you know me, uh still stuck on the food, uh if there are two main dishes that you like, can you get both?
SPEAKER_03:You can order one of everything on the menu.
SPEAKER_01:Holy shit.
SPEAKER_03:Everything.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. I like that.
SPEAKER_03:And that's what we would do. We're like we're getting like two appetizers, two side, two uh two starters, two entrees, two desserts. Two or three desserts sometimes. Yeah, no, you want one of everything on the menu? Done.
SPEAKER_09:I'm just thinking like if they had like, oh, this chicken dish sounds good, this beef dish sounds good. Oh man, I want both. I can't have both. No, I can have both if I wanted both. You can. Yep. 100%. That's cool. Can you are you allowed to be picky? Like, I want like for example, my example I just gave, I don't want all the max side dishes, so I'm gonna waste it. I'm not gonna have enough uh space in my stomach. And I'm like, hey, I want the steak and all the sides and just the main chicken over here.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, because they're super um good with that. Um they deal with a lot of picky ass kids, right? So and then allergies are really good about allergies and stuff too, so cool.
SPEAKER_09:I'm allergic to dumb asses. Can you remove them all, please?
SPEAKER_03:That boat would be empty. So we don't serve those here. Your your ass would be in a lifeboat. Yes, you can order room service at your room. Yeah, but if um uh if uh say you didn't want to eat with the dumbasses, you go to the restaurant and like, look, bro, it's too peoply up in this bitch. They'll give you the dishes and you can go back to your room. Oh they'll put like the little metal tray, the metal loop on it and everything. Yeah. No, it's Disney. So yes, you are paying more for it, but I mean you're getting Disney level service, right?
SPEAKER_09:Do you do you know the menu ahead of time?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, because it doesn't really change. Um, but also once you're on the ship and you're on the Wi-Fi and everything, you can bring up your itinerary. So it'll tell you when trivia is, what time of the movie we're playing, and you can pull up um the menus for time.
SPEAKER_09:The menus from the restaurant.
SPEAKER_03:So you know if your fat ass is staying in the buffet all day or not because you want to try five different entrees.
SPEAKER_09:Exactly. Exactly. That's where I was getting at. I was like, I wonder, uh, for efficiency purposes, do they make you uh order ahead of time?
SPEAKER_03:No. Okay. Nope. You come at your assigned dinner time and you just order right then. Alright. Yeah, uh two seatings. So there's the early seating and late seating, and then they're opposites. So like we do the late dinner, so we see the first show. So you go to your Broadway show and then you go to dinner. Or you can do dinner first and then you do the show later.
SPEAKER_09:Okay. Yeah, Duke, uh, since I'm likely not going to a place that needs security uh at my Airbnb, I'd rather I'd rather just we do our own little small group of uh crews if you're up for it. And it it we're timing-wise, obviously we'll coordinate that works best. We don't need it's like, hey, my birthday is this week. We need to go cruise the week before the week. No, no, no, no, no. We can just cruise whenever it works out for us to have it be for your uh celebration. Yeah. Yeah, no, that's always sound like fun.
SPEAKER_03:And I know old girls gonna be in too, so and then um, yeah, just like like I said, I do the trivias and all that bullshit. Um they have lots of trivia. Um lots of trivia. Um they also have um like pictures set up too. So um what do you mean? Let's see. Let's see. Like my photo. Share my screen here.
SPEAKER_05:Let's see how the technology works.
SPEAKER_03:Yes, let's see how this works. So they had a Captain America Shield.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, look at that. Right, right? Is it gonna let me click on here?
SPEAKER_03:Here we go. Then they had Mjolner, and that's the entrance to the um Marvel restaurant.
SPEAKER_09:Marvel restaurant, okay, makes sense.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. Then they had a lightsabers.
SPEAKER_09:I like the serious face look. Right? See, yeah, see that that that's a good thing.
SPEAKER_01:And then they had uh photo shoots.
SPEAKER_03:It's from the hitchhiking ghosts at the end of uh Haunted Mansion. But since Lou only goes during Christmas, he never sees them. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_09:What are you talking about? That's kind of haunted mansion.
SPEAKER_01:It's like, oh, okay.
SPEAKER_03:But no, it was pretty cool. But yeah, no, they do like different photo shoots. Um they have uh in the kids at club area, they have uh little Star Wars like cargo bay, but then they have like a porg and a loath cat in there. But uh they'll do like a Ray and Chewy photo opportunity, so the grown-ups can go in there, you take pictures with Ray and Chewy, you can see the Lothcats and the Porgs and stuff.
SPEAKER_09:That's cool. Super cool. Do you need your uh uh watch band thing?
SPEAKER_03:It is highly encouraged, uh, because it opens your door, you can pay with it. Um they use it for your pictures, so you can take pictures, they just scan your band. Okay. Um I used it to play uh Haunted Mansion scan. Avenger hunt game on the ship. Um But yeah, no, it is it's highly encouraged. I mean, otherwise you can just have your key with you and your lanyard around your neck.
SPEAKER_09:Nah, though the the risk the watch thing seems really cool.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:Well and now that you have your I was like, what the hell is it called? Magic Band.
SPEAKER_05:So just for not that this is a basis for anything, because it they they're not going out that the reservations aren't going out that far. But for a November cruise, a November Mexican, Mexico cruise, it is you leave San Diego, you go to day one is Encelada, day two is a C day at sea, and then you're back in San Diego. So it's like a three-day. So you're leaving, you know, you're leaving on a Monday. Two nights?
SPEAKER_04:Three nights.
SPEAKER_07:Oh, so those three days. Two nights.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Because so it'd be like you're leaving you leave on Monday afternoon, you haul ass down to Ensenada overnight, you end up in Ensonada in the morning, you do your Ensenada stuff, which we could like go do the Fox Tour Fox Studio Tour, which I've done, and it's fucking cool. Like I really enjoyed it. Uh and then you get back on the boat, uh, day, night on the water, then you're back in um, then you're back in San Diego.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah. So two two nights.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah. And so it'd be uh 1742 for a room with a porthole. Uh Deluxe Ocean View State Room would be 1742 something.
SPEAKER_09:That's not bad. Uh 500 bucks a person. Jack, now that you've done uh all the different days, I guess, is seven your preferred, or is it seven every once in a while? Like you would make it.
SPEAKER_03:Every once in a while. Um mostly because I would rather do quantity to move up the tiers, the levels.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, oh, okay. You know what I'm saying? Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:So like was it last year or two years ago we did a back-to-back? It was a three night and then like a four-night or something. So it ended up being seven nights, but it counted as two cruises. Did it get repetitive the second time around? Yeah. But I mean at least I knew the trivia questions.
SPEAKER_07:That's what matters.
SPEAKER_09:Man. Yeah, I would suck at almost all that trivia except for Star Wars. All that rest of that shit, I just don't remember.
SPEAKER_03:They do have regular stuff. Like uh, I did a movie quote one, and it was just movie quotes. Or they have movie quotes.
SPEAKER_09:That sounded pretty cool.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. So it's not all Disney.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, the quotes weren't all for I didn't really pay attention to the all the questions on that, but they weren't all from Disney movies. No. Yeah, that that'd be that'd be solid. Um, but yeah, I I think I think I need to do a short one just to see if I'm going to enjoy it before I commit to something where I'm gonna make everybody else miserable or myself miserable um for a longer one. You know what I mean? It's like, no, go go make sure you can enjoy it and the boats. Oh, I 100% agree.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. No, you do the three-day um and you do everything, right? You do the sail away party, you do the pirate night, you do the goodbye thing on the last night.
SPEAKER_05:Everybody cries because you do a short excursion, you do like maximize your time. Nope. I paid$3,000 to be the problem. Well, no, but that's the problem, though. And I don't know if Disney's the same, but uh the couple of cruises that I've been on, when you're in port, there's like nothing. They shut the boat down for the most part.
SPEAKER_03:Um you can't shop, but all the food's open. That's fine.
SPEAKER_04:That's it. I mean, it really depends on the port, right?
SPEAKER_09:If there's a lot of sand at my port, I'm not getting off the boat. Or wait, will they provide waiters for you? Oh, I'll wear waiters on the board.
SPEAKER_05:Where there's no sand, Lou. Like you physically have to go.
SPEAKER_09:But then you gotta walk someplace like, oh, you want to go to the bar area. It's in the sandy. I saw Spider-Man, you know, at the end of it. Eddie, Eddie was that's the real life for Venom.
SPEAKER_05:There's there's no you you can avoid the sand. Like you walk off.
SPEAKER_09:That's what matters to me.
SPEAKER_05:You're gonna go to the house.
SPEAKER_09:I was talking to the old girl about it last week, obviously, when Jack was gone, and I was and I was all like, she's like, uh you're gonna have to make friends because I ain't going with you to the beach. I'm like, if there's an area where I can just sit up someplace that's not on the sand and you can be on the beach like 100 feet away, have that.
SPEAKER_05:That's why I was saying excursion. That's why I was saying excursion. You walk off the boat, you walk across the parking lot, you get in a bus, they drive you to wherever you're going, you get off the boat, you walk around to do some stuff, whatever activity it is, you get back on the boat, you drive back, you walk back across the parking lot, and you're back on the boat. Like not a grain of sand. Not a grain of sand.
SPEAKER_09:Like that's how it is. Fine.
SPEAKER_05:That's how it is. All of these port, all these ports that you go to, the cruise that I went on in Mar last March, like every single time we wanted to go on a go on a beach, you had to take a bus to get to it because the ports are so busy with boats and stuff like that that there the beaches there are fucking awful. Nobody uses the beaches at the port itself. They're going elsewhere to go to other beaches. So you don't have to worry about like a lot of things.
SPEAKER_09:Just because not using that beach don't mean there's no sand around.
SPEAKER_01:I hear you, Lou. I hear you.
SPEAKER_09:And look, if I can fit so if I can fit some waiters or some fishing boots or knee-high rubber boots in my luggage, then I don't have to worry about it, right? Because it ain't touching me. It'd be fine. That's true. Yeah. And it's Disney, so you think they have account for everything. So it's like, hey y'all, I need some tall rubber boots. I need I need to look like I'm fishing for van camps or whatever that brand of that dude's wearing a big ass yellow outfit.
SPEAKER_03:I need a Morton's fisherman.
SPEAKER_09:For real.
SPEAKER_03:I know what you did last summer.
SPEAKER_09:But that's my only thing is like if I'm just walking around and if it's solid ground, we're good.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I mean when we got off in um in Cozumel, we basically got dropped off at a shopping mall. Yeah. See, that's fine. And then we drove to the beach.
SPEAKER_09:Other than the criminals want to take my passport.
SPEAKER_03:Well, yeah, but you leave your passport on the ship.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, I thought you were supposed to have it with you at all times.
SPEAKER_03:No. You can, but generally you can we got back on the ship with our magic band and our driver's license.
SPEAKER_09:Okay. Alright. Just hear all the like I was watching one video where uh on YouTube where it was like there was a party of twelve and three of the twelve had their passport stolen in that excursion.
SPEAKER_05:That's just dumb people though. There is so much to many there are so many things that you can buy to hide your wallet, passport, everything on your body that keep it from being, you know.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah.
unknown:Exactly.
SPEAKER_09:There is zero chance that I I go like out or whatever, and I don't have stuff that zips up. There is no way I'm having a lot of people.
SPEAKER_05:Like, yeah.
SPEAKER_09:I'm talking about like I'm my person. Like if I had if I'm walking around, whatever I have on me, whether it's a fanny pack or sling, or even uh you know, my pants, it's going to zip. So if somebody needs to get in my, I'm gonna know that they're trying to get in my shit.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:The people walk around with just oh loose shorts and all that, and they're walking. I was like, what is wrong with you?
SPEAKER_05:For real, though. But those are the people that typically get their shit stolen. Where they get back to the city. That's my point. Where's my credit card? You know, like that type of thing.
SPEAKER_09:Like plant-based sausage. Get the hell out of here with that crap.
SPEAKER_03:Look, it's an option, Lou.
SPEAKER_07:Oh, the barbecue, the barbecue menu. Yeah. The barbecue menu.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, so that's the food court menus. That's all the the food courts that they have up on deck 11.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, build your own. That's cool. Have you guys been on the Wonder Jack?
SPEAKER_05:That's the one that looks like a San Diego.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, yeah. That was the first ship we've gone on. It's everybody's favorite. It's smaller. A little more uh more cozy.
SPEAKER_09:After having done a few now, is it still everybody's favorite?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, yeah. The girls are like, no, we want to go back on that ship. That's cool. It might be because it was our first one. Um, but it's nice because it's a little smaller. It gets a little crowded like after dinner and after shows if you want to get on the elevator. Um, but otherwise it it's a really nice ship. And then it has like the glass elevators that go down like the main atrium and stuff. Oh yeah, yeah. Classic kind of cruise ship kind of yeah.
SPEAKER_09:The shit you see on TV.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, exactly. That's pretty solid.
SPEAKER_05:But you'd give it a five out of five direct. Oh, yeah, for sure.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. We're definitely down for cruising whenever we can pool the money together for it. You know what?
SPEAKER_09:I was about to ask for that. I don't keep track of that shit. That's wise business.
SPEAKER_03:Yep. I have a travel agent.
SPEAKER_09:So, okay, so realistically, uh, the three or a four-day one. Is that is that like uh I don't know, tip all your expenses, blah, blah, blah. Is that like a$1,500 per person type thing or more?
SPEAKER_03:Well, that's what Duke was just telling us, right? Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:Well, yeah, but okay, he gave me a couple of things.
SPEAKER_05:I would anticipate a thousand dollars per person for that cruise.
SPEAKER_09:Well, see what I'm getting at, Jack though. It was like, cause you that's the base price, but what do you spend extra while you're there, though?
SPEAKER_03:Um on each of the ships we go on, um, all the Disney ships, um they all have the statue on the atrium, right? So you can buy a miniature replica of it. So I make sure I buy that every time. Um then they have obviously they have like towels and shirts and stuff like that. Um if you want other kinds of souvenirs. I mean it's like a plan for like Disney souvenir kind of stuff. They have like what about exclusive? Oh, yeah, definitely tips.
SPEAKER_05:You can usually you might can you prepay your tips on Disney?
SPEAKER_03:Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, it says we recommend a gratuity of sixteen dollars per night per stateroom guest, including infants and children.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, that's not that's not crazy at all.
SPEAKER_05:So you're looking at you're looking at$80 for a three-nighter.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Exactly, yeah. Roundup percent.
SPEAKER_09:You think you think three times sixteen is is eighty?
SPEAKER_05:Times two per guest.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, she can pay her own tier. I'm talking about me.
SPEAKER_03:She got a job. Look, don't. Right, for real. She can pay my tier. Um, I'd have to ask her how all that works, because like you you put down, you're like, hey, I'm going on a cruise, and then like you pay it off like monthly or whatever. Um and somehow the tips and all that are included eventually somewhere. And like the right before dinner on the last night, they give you like the prepaid coupons, you put them in your envelopes, you give them to your people.
unknown:Okay.
SPEAKER_09:Okay, then I I am way off base. I this is not as expensive as I thought it was gonna be. I'm thinking Japan, where I spent eight grand, you know.
SPEAKER_03:No, no, if you spend that much, you better be in concierge. Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:So if I budgeted$1,500, I'm gonna be okay. For the smaller, for the smaller creator.
SPEAKER_05:Adult one for the this is for the inside, right? So the inside for in November again, uh starts at$1,509 for an inside room. So each person individually before taxes would be$588. There are$332 in taxes to me up to a total of$1,508.66 for two people.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, that's that's not bad at all, actually. I mean, I got open credit cards, even I don't have a job that could pay for that right now. You know what I mean? It's one of those type of things. That's that's not crazy, okay.
SPEAKER_05:So, Lou, if we if if like we say, okay, the three of us are gonna share a room. Jack's family is gonna be in one room, we're gonna do another room. It'll be um for an inside room. Come on, load.
SPEAKER_09:This is this yeah, this is way cheaper than I was. I don't know why I thought these things were way more expensive. Don't get me wrong, I know they can be if you do all the fancy stuff. Um I I get that.
SPEAKER_05:Um but they actually are getting quote unquote better about that.
SPEAKER_09:I'll say this is affordable.
SPEAKER_05:So for a three-bed, so for a three-person uh let's see, which one is this? This is just maybe that'll be my goal. Confirmed travel party.
SPEAKER_09:Uh you know, I I have to give myself a goal to actually do stuff. So I was like, let me finally make the real effort to sell everything, and that's all cruise money.
SPEAKER_05:For a standard inside state room, it would be let's see, let me just pick one here.
SPEAKER_09:What's a state room's a regular room?
SPEAKER_05:State room's just a room.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, state room is just what they call.
SPEAKER_05:It's your room. The price goes up per person to adults one and two would be six hundred and thirty-six dollars, adult three would be three ninety-six, taxes are basically five hundred dollars. So you're looking at twenty one sixty-six ninety-nine for each person. So basically like seven seven eight hundred dollars.$722. Um, and then and then of course you're gonna add taxes, or sorry, you're gonna add tip to that. You have to well, unless you want to pay for it per day or whatever yourself.
SPEAKER_09:$722 plus an plus another$48. So$770 for three days.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_09:And then after that is just whatever extra you want to do. Obviously, the cost to get down there and flights and that. But the cruise itself is under a grant.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, 21 2166.99 before tips.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, yeah. Under like I said,$722 and plus tips 48 for the interest.
SPEAKER_05:And if you want to do so, let's say you let's say you go, I don't I'm I don't want to do an interior, I want at least a porthole, right?
SPEAKER_04:For a porthole uh ocean view, it goes up like 200 bucks.
SPEAKER_05:So it's 23. Uh let's see, give me one second.
SPEAKER_09:Let me pick hundred bucks a person.
SPEAKER_05:Uh select the stateroom.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, we can worry about that offline. We've been recording for two hours.
SPEAKER_05:23 23 2373. So welcome to our travel podcast. Yep. We hope you know, right? No, no, no. Our travel planning, like travel uh fantasy podcast at this point.
SPEAKER_03:No, no, no, we're going on the wonder, not the fantasy.
SPEAKER_09:So, folks, uh cruising is not as expensive as I thought it was. That's the lesson for the day. So if y'all thought it was expensive as well, I mean, don't get me wrong, like I said, it can be depends on what you're doing. But if you just want to check it out, you can check it out for actually it seems pretty reasonable.
SPEAKER_05:Less than I mean, it's a I mean it's a Disney trip, it's a Disney trip. It's a weekend for us in Disney Trip. Right?
SPEAKER_09:By a lot.
SPEAKER_05:Well, and again, think about this includes food. Well, well, think about how much you how much you spent last how much you spent in December, right? Like for the for the tickets for Disneyland, for the hotel, for the car, like what we paid. Like, that's a cruise, basically.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, well, yeah, like like I said, it's it's I for whatever reason, I don't know why it was in my head that it was a lot more money. I always thought it was like two to two to twenty five uh two thousand twenty five hundred per person. Um, and it doesn't seem like it's that at all.
SPEAKER_05:With that being said, it can be. There are some cruises that are way more popular, and also depending on what you do, right? Like what type of cruise line you're on, that type of thing. Because there are some cruise lines.
SPEAKER_09:Time of year matters probably as well.
SPEAKER_05:Well, and like Jack was saying, like a lot of cruise lines, you don't get soda for free. You have to pay for it, right? Um so those types of things that you gotta kind of consider and and figure out if it's worth it to you. Even at dinners? That would succeed. Uh no, I think the dinner stuff is usually included. But it's the if you go to the machine, like if you go up to the machine in the boat during the day or I just gotta bring a canteen and a funnel.
SPEAKER_09:I'll just fill up my canteen at dinner. Fuck damn. There you go, buddy.
SPEAKER_05:Sir, you've drank five sodas at dinner. Yes, I'm thirsty.
SPEAKER_09:Yeah, your point. That's what I say.
SPEAKER_05:It's humid.
SPEAKER_09:Your boy's sweating all day.
SPEAKER_05:But yeah, I I mean again, Lou, we haven't recorded in two weeks, so I think a two-hour podcast is fine.
SPEAKER_09:Oh, no, no, I don't disagree. I'm just saying, but those those type of specifics I don't think the audience gives a shit about. They might three of them. I I gave a shit.
unknown:Okay.
SPEAKER_03:I didn't get bored like I thought I would. Um, I kept myself entertained. Little one stayed in uh the kids' club the whole time. We hardly saw her. She made a new friend. Um, one just one? Yeah, just one.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:But no, she likes went swimming with them. Like her parents watched her and they went swimming. And I was like, all right, fine. As long as you're having fun, I guess. What uh what about what about uh older child? She stayed with me the whole time.
SPEAKER_05:But she also has an opportunity to go, she has a kids' club of her own, right?
SPEAKER_03:If she didn't want to, she could have yeah, they have teen clubs, the tween club. Okay, she can do whatever she wants. She just chose to hang out with me until Fantastic Four was showing. I think she watched that twice while we were on the show.
SPEAKER_09:What about wifey?
SPEAKER_03:No, she didn't hang out with us a whole lot either.
SPEAKER_09:Okay, so she did her own thing. All right.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, yeah. Like we knew where everybody was. We were keeping track. Like, I'm like, hey, I'm going to trivia here at this time. If you want to join me.
SPEAKER_09:Oh. Is there a is there a Pandora shop on that boat?
SPEAKER_05:Now, Lou, now your cruise costs$2,000. Yes.
SPEAKER_03:And each ship has its own charm. So every she's at least getting one every time she goes on a new ship. Yep. Yep, at least one. And then that depends. Did they release just a general Disney cruise line set? Which is a 2022 cruise line set.
SPEAKER_09:That's hilarious.
SPEAKER_03:Yes, yes, there is actually. She bought the 2026, she bought the treasure charm, and maybe one more. Oh, wait. Before we went to Disney World, after the cruise, where she bought uh the Festival of the Arts Charm and one or two more.
SPEAKER_01:That's so good.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, and then you did, and then you did a couple days at Disney World after you got back, right?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, we did um one eh we went to Magic Kingdom early ish, like after we got off the ship. Um, we went to our our resort. Our room wasn't ready so. I took the girls to um Magic Kingdom, which is like the basic Disneyland out here. Um Castle, Tomorrowland, all that. Out here.
SPEAKER_05:Like he already living in Florida and shit.
SPEAKER_03:Right? I mean at Disneyland. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_09:Um, he ain't got the Jufro for that yet.
SPEAKER_04:No.
unknown:No.
SPEAKER_03:Um, but no, we did pretty good. We got on Tron, we got on they have a Monsters Inc. um show. Like while you're in line, you can text them jokes and they'll like play the jokes in the show, and like the monsters pick on you, they'll like put the camera on the audience and say this guy's paying for churros all day. It's kind of like crush, but like more so. But it's with Monsters Inc., so it's pretty good. I texted a joke with Olivia's name on it, and they read it, so she got a kick out of that. And then um we did the carousel of progress, which is always little ones, little ones game. Yeah, whatever. It's fine. It's fine. Um Carousel of Progress, great big, beautiful tomorrow. It's a nice 15-minute inside air-conditioned experience. Seating, right? You're sit your seating. Yeah, it's the theater you sit in and like you rotate around as you go through time.
SPEAKER_05:It's the it's the nap, it's the di it's the Walt Disney presents nap time experience.
SPEAKER_03:Pretty much Disney World. Pretty much. But it is one of my favorite things to do there. Yeah, it's a good show. Yeah. And then we did Tron. We did the light cycle before they got rid of nine-inch nails, so that was cool. Um then I know we did the Seven Dwarfs Minecart, which is fun. We don't have that at Disneyland.
SPEAKER_07:Um does Anaheim not have a Tron show.
SPEAKER_05:There's just no space for it.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Which I think they're I I read something at aren't they expanding? They're gonna take over another parking lot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're gonna blow out the stuff.
SPEAKER_03:So they're adding Avatar to DCA, they're adding a cocoa ride to DCA. They're expanding a lot. And like by 27, 28-ish, I think they're supposed to have a lot. They're adding two rides to Avengers campus over there.
SPEAKER_04:Oh, dang. So yeah.
SPEAKER_03:It's gonna blow up soon. So it's coming. Yeah, yeah. Um, I think wife joined us later. Yeah, she did for a little bit. She mostly just wanted to shop. I don't even think she won any rides. Her knee isn't 100% yet.
SPEAKER_09:So Oh, girl was asking about that. I I'm glad you brought it up because I forgot to mention it because she was like, was she okay? I was like, you know, I'll ask at the pie, because I don't know. I I mean I was like, maybe she did minimal stuff, and that answered.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, it was.
SPEAKER_05:I mean, like, she walked around okay, but um she wasn't getting out of she wasn't getting in and out of the small world boats. Exactly.
SPEAKER_03:She did get in and out of the uh the frozen boat, and she wasn't happy about it. Because they have a frozen riot at Florida, like the one we did in uh Japan, though. Japan? Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_09:Um the beast riot out to Anaheim. Jesus.
SPEAKER_03:We did um Guardians twice. We did Test Track, um, Soren, Living with the Land. We spent all day at Epcot. Epcot's a lot of fun. We did not get to thank the Phoenicians for giving us language though. That was sad. No, it was good. And I got my Figment popcorn bucket. That wasn't as big of a hassle as I thought it would be. And he lights up, his paintbrush lights up. Super cute.
SPEAKER_05:And then you were there for that night, and then you flew back the next day. Um Monday, right?
SPEAKER_03:So we went yeah. Um, so that was Sunday night, and then Monday. Our plane didn't even leave till like 7 30. So we had like the time to kill. So we were just like screwing around. Um went to go find the frozen Italian ice place they used to have out here called Rita's Rita's frozen ice. Went to go find that and hung out at the airport for a little bit. Did did everybody school work the next day? Well the girls came home sick. They both had sore throats, so no, they did not. Wife isn't going back to school until Tuesday. This Tuesday, because her paperwork got delayed. But I sure went to work. Everybody else gets nice little vacations. She's like, oh of course. Not me. Whatever.
SPEAKER_05:Whatever. You're a very important person.
SPEAKER_03:But um, no, it's good. I mean, it was a good trip. I think we needed it after the way 2025 ended.
SPEAKER_09:I was gonna say, sounds like a trip that was well needed.
SPEAKER_03:It was. It was fun. I wasn't stressed about anything. But as soon as we got back home, I'm like, oh shit, I gotta do this, I gotta do that. Mm-hmm.
SPEAKER_05:Real life fucking sucks after you've been on a boat for seven days. For real, though.
SPEAKER_03:There's no towel animals on my bed, there's no chocolates on my pillow.
SPEAKER_05:You can't dial zero and get a concierge guy to bring you a burger.
SPEAKER_03:I was like, what do you mean I have to pay? Yep.
SPEAKER_09:Next time I visit, I'll lay across your pillow. You can have chocolate on your pillow.
SPEAKER_03:Well, I haven't washed the sheets out here in the Tesita yet, so oh, somebody's gonna go back.
SPEAKER_09:So there you go. Chocolate already on your pillow.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, the culture shock of coming back, like when we were in Belize and I came back and had my layover in Honolulu and um, or no, from Japan, the culture shock. And like, yeah, I'd like to get this meal, and they're like$47. And I'm like, what?
SPEAKER_09:Try that again? Yeah, I don't think you heard me. I got some family behind me.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, right. Is am I paying for everybody in line right now? What the fuck is happening?
SPEAKER_09:God damn, Japan was so inexpensive. Oh ridiculous. And you and you hey, I don't know about you guys, but I I've been keeping track of the uh the exchange rate. And when we were there, it was in that uh uh that 140, 148-ish now. That shit is up to like 255 now.
SPEAKER_03:See, it's not cheap anymore.
SPEAKER_09:Just as of as yeah, it's 154 right now. So not a lot. We're only talking about six yen, but it's above the 150 mark again. It was it was 150 before we got there, below 150 when we got there, and now that we've gone back to above 150. I'm like, hmm, I tell you what though, uh I know inflation, blah, blah, blah. Uh, when I was there from 83 to 86, uh the exchange rate was one dollar is 250 yen. Wow. I was like, man, we go to the corner, the corner Mama San uh basically uh Kobini, and my brother and I take a dollar in there and walk out, like all the candy we could buy for a dollar. It was it was so crazy back in the day. My mom was like, Did you guys steal the very first time we went, did you guys steal that? I go, No, a dollar just goes a long way here.
SPEAKER_03:Like, dang, I come home without being accused of stealing shit in my own home, right?
SPEAKER_05:And 50 years later, every time he comes home, his wife, his mom still goes, What'd you steal? Yep.
SPEAKER_09:You still stole from the basic change. It was MM's a long time ago.
SPEAKER_05:Uh from white people. Well, great. Now there's a sale action going on. There's no statute of limitations. So next week when it's just Jack and I. What happened to Lou? Oh, Lou commented about stealing from the PX and now he's gone.
SPEAKER_09:One of the only few things, no statute of limitations, is murder.
SPEAKER_05:El Salvador.
SPEAKER_09:The other one, the other ones have statute limitations. So there. Um but yeah, it's what it's why my parents bought all their furniture in Japan because it was cheap. Well, it wasn't cheap, it was inexpensive because it's good furniture. The curio cabinets, wall units, all that stuff, buffets. Because being military, right, when we moved, that was all gonna get shipped for free. So why not get it there?
SPEAKER_01:Yep.
SPEAKER_09:But my parents, they still have the wall unit up in the in the loft. They have all their curio cabinets. The buffet went to my brother, um, and I have the roll top desk. So but all that other fancy fruit that's still in my parents' house right now. Um, from the fucking 1985.
SPEAKER_01:Good stuff. For real. 40 years and it's solid. Craziness.
