Shawn & G React to Florida's Craziest Weather Moments

Cold snaps that knock iguanas from trees. Frost in Florida with no de-icing in sight. A six-hour delay that snowballs from aircraft swaps to maintenance mysteries while a “crew stalker” circles for secret intel. We take you behind the curtain of airline operations and the small human moments that make or break a travel day: the myth that crews get paid to wait, the art of staying calm when the cart clips a knee, and the kid with the EpiPen who’s more composed than the adults.

We jump from wildlife and weather to family life, visiting nieces in Vegas where a doodle and three kids redefine chaos. That spills into the device dilemma every parent knows: Roblox-driven microtransactions, screen limits that disappear when adults are scrolling too, and a flash of cross-generational joy when Pong shows up on a tiny watch. It’s a conversation about attention, habits, and what modeling actually teaches.

Then we chase the thrill. The Winter Olympics in Italy stirs slope memories, downhill speed, and a bobsled bucket-list wish. Hockey nostalgia peeks through. Aviation history lands too: Boeing’s 747 reshaped global travel, and a first-time lead trip to Auckland brings back the awe and terror of working a flying city. We even poke at the boarding theater—why “gate lice” form, how bag anxiety drives it, and what better crowd management could do.

If you work in aviation, fly often, or just love good travel stories, this ride blends humor, insight, and the unfiltered reality of airports, families, and phones that won’t stop pinging. Hit play, laugh with us, steal a jet lag tactic, and rethink your spot in the boarding scrum. Subscribe, leave a review, and tell us: what’s your most unbelievable travel moment?

Cold Snap And Falling Iguanas

Shawn 0:00

If the hurricane season wasn't bad enough, the lizards, they're dropping from the trees faster than the temperatures down in Florida. Man, the temperatures down in Florida have been crazy this last couple weeks, right?

G 0:22

Dude, I'm gonna tell you right now, listen, I'm over this winter shit. Are you not over it?

Shawn 0:28

I I we're going down to Florida and experiencing it now.

G 0:31

Right. I like I I'm like, I I see seriously, I woke up this morning and I'm like, this is so crazy. Like all the it's so cold everywhere. But Florida has been uh crazy that they're uh these stupid lizards are falling out of the trees.

Shawn 0:46

You like I said, uh Brella, hell, you need a helmet. A helmet? No, seriously. I mean, I was just down there and um, you know, you've seen those trucks, they're going around picking these things up.

G 0:58

I was uh I'm looking at all the like the videos and stuff that were on like you know, TikTok and all that stuff. And they're like, there's people like putting uh did you see the ones with the two dudes that like had them all over and they put them all in like the front of the dashboard in their car, and they had them like on the top of their head and their shoulders, they're like all over them in the car. It was like crazy.

Shawn 1:16

No, I seen the trucks. They they um they start throwing them in the back of these trucks, and you you they look like they're dead, but they're not dead. No, they're they're what like uh dormantos, yeah, they're dormant. Yeah, they're but they'll come back. It's just that their body, their temperature, their body needs that that heat. Yeah. And it goes into the like almost like a comatose state.

SPEAKER_01 1:35

Right.

Shawn 1:36

So that now now they're realizing it, hey, it's an opportunity.

G 1:41

Opportunity for what?

Shawn 1:42

Pick them damn things up and get rid of them.

G 1:44

Oh I thought somebody was doing some like Florida jumble eyes.

Shawn 1:50

No, hell no. Those things, those things were brought in as pets years ago. Okay. They, I mean, back in, I think it was like 1960, they said, the 1970, they're brought in as a pet.

SPEAKER_01 2:00

Oh god.

Shawn 2:01

They were brought into the state to raise them. No things, no, those things, those things have no predators.

G 2:08

Yeah.

Shawn 2:08

No predators.

G 2:09

No predators down in Florida, right? So they're like overpopulating all the places or destroying the ecosystem. I know all over the Caribbean. It's like not only in Florida, it's like everywhere. Like Caribbean, Florida, any tropical uh location down that you know, south that direction. They're everywhere. Have you ever dealt with one of those? Oh yeah. I had I had an incident where this uh damn lizard came out. We're sitting there in a lounge chair on the beach. This lady has something in her bag, she has like a little something to eat, and the damn lizard. I mean, have you ever seen how fast they are? Shit, yeah. Oh, yeah. And so she goes running across and like jumps on her. She's like, Whoa! Like screaming, all that stuff. It's crazy, man. So I'm like, uh, yeah, those things are dangerous, and they're freaking their claws are so lethal.

Shawn 2:58

I was uh I was laying over in Cancun, went for a run. Uh they had this this uh neighborhood running uh on one of the sidewalks and right out of nowhere. It came out of this flipping hole, ran right in front of me. It scares the shit out of you. Yeah. I mean, really, I mean, it startles the shit out of you because here it is, it's like this this three-foot long-tailed monster just runs right in front of you and then ducks right back in.

G 3:23

Yeah, I was thinking about like size, the size of them. Like some of them are small and stuff, you know, and uh it's like those uh you know the dragon stuff that we were doing with your with your boy. The little geckos. Yeah, but uh the the iguanas are like they are freaking, they can be huge, super sized, like freaking dragons. Yeah. I mean, they're they're if you were in the iguana meat, you'd have a freaking smorgasbore going on right now.

Shawn 3:46

Could you imagine though? I mean, even stand by a tree and all of a sudden that big ass lizard just drops out of the tree. Uh no, really. I mean, just like, what the f what's it right? Some big ass lizard just full. But no, they they had this opportunity now. They're they're they're actually picking these things up. And usually you had to have a permit for them or something like that, right? You had to have a permit to to I think to hunt them or you know, yeah, I guess. You had to have a permit, but now they they're just picking them up, throw them in a truck, and then they're they're uh euthanizing them. A nice way of saying what? You killing their ass killing their ass. So you you won't now you it's kind of funny, really, not really funny, but kind of funny when you think about it. They know it's destroying the the ecosystem.

SPEAKER_01 4:30

Yeah.

Shawn 4:31

And just normally you wouldn't just do something about it. No. And now here you got this opportunity, just clean these damn things up, right? Throw them up there before they see them.

Invasive Species And Ecosystem Impact

G 4:39

I'm just like, I m my thought about it whole thing is like though these lizards are like like everywhere. So I mean, people eat iguana. Yeah.

Shawn 4:49

Like, I mean, so like you know what they're gonna say, it's say like it tastes like chicken. Probably, right? Yeah, they'd be like at the local fairs. Can you imagine like an iguana on a stick? Right. I was thinking the exact same thing. What would you like for a buck? It was like what one without the legs, man. You just drop the legs off.

G 5:08

Can you take do something with that tail?

Shawn 5:11

Well, me and you have eaten some crazy ass shit. We already talked about that last week, right? We didn't, yeah. Yeah, you you went a little farther than me last week. But no, I mean, um if you remember down in Honduras, I mean, we ate we some shit we didn't we had no idea. Yeah, so we'd eat iguana.

SPEAKER_01 5:28

Right.

Shawn 5:28

We'd put that little sugar on a rotisserie, right? Yeah, chicken meat.

G 5:32

Yeah. Iguan. I'm just thinking like, you know, like people would they eat a gal alligator and snake, and I know people have to eat iguana. So there's you there's there's some cultures down south, I'm sure, that are like having a feast off of this.

Shawn 5:51

Shit. I mean, there there's people uh in Florida that if you brought it up, they actually they actually sell iguana meat. Right. I don't think it's a uh a favorite, but I mean it's gonna feed some people.

G 6:02

Yeah, it'll definitely uh keep you not hungry.

Shawn 6:06

These things that though are locked up, it reminds me of those um those feigning goats. You ever seen those?

G 6:12

The feigning goats. No, but you just showed me these feigning goats and uh like those goats like getting when they get scared and stuff, they just like are running and just locked up over, like you like lock up. I wish the iguanas did the same thing though. You know, like you know, you wish it like if they were like running and stuff and they just like froze. But these guys are just too damn cold and just falling out of their too damn fast, yeah. Frozen, but now you can just pick them up. Yeah, popsicle iguanas. Yeah, yeah.

Shawn 6:42

I was thinking of you uh back at your backyard. Have you ever you do you think you could do you think you could whip a goose?

G 6:49

Oh, dude. I've had that incident with the goose. I think I could whip a goose. I'm gonna tell you right now, I hate goose. I hate geese. If I say it anymore, I hate freaking geese. And the geese are like all over, because I'm in a golf course community, they're all over the place, and they get aggressive, especially in the springtime. Had this goose one time. I'm like literally driving down the fairway to my ball. The goose thought I'm getting too close to the litter or whatever, and the damn thing ran straight at me, and it was like sp on I mean, like, and like boom on the front of my whole cart and bounced off my cart. And I'm like, what the heck? You know, like you're like stupid ass goose.

Shawn 7:30

Well, you see those, you see those videos every time with um with people, as soon as they have that encounter, they're like running away going, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Yeah, get away from me. That goose is like feathers. I mean, they're completely opened up going after them.

G 7:43

Geese are like aggressive.

Shawn 7:45

No shit, man. Super aggressive.

G 7:46

I mean, going they're not afraid of you.

Shawn 7:48

No, but I seen this little girl, this one with this little girl, this this goose come at a little girl, little girl, bam.

SPEAKER_05 7:53

Yeah.

Shawn 7:54

Reach down, grab that moon right by the neck. That's how you handle nothing.

unknown 8:00

Right?

Shawn 8:01

I'd take that damn goose down in a minute.

SPEAKER_01 8:03

Right.

Shawn 8:04

All the adults running away, a little girl just grabbed that damn thing right by the neck. What you want me to do with it, dad? I love that, man. So, man, I gotta tell you, this week, dealing with the Florida weather, dealing with all that, go down there and at the beginning of the week, something I haven't dealt with for a while. So, you know, they don't have de-icing down there. Right, right, right. Okay, right. So get there early in early morning flight coming out of there, frost. Frost. Have you ever had to wait for the sun to come up? Only I think once that happened. So it was it was real quick. So we had frost on the wings, and it was so bad that we actually had to wait for the sun to come up. No de-icing fluid.

G 8:48

They had no de-icing fluid down south in Florida.

Shawn 8:52

No, no. So we had to sit there and we waited like an hour and 45 minutes and uh for for the the sun to actually come up. Now, the funny part was watching these maintenance guys, they were out there. Have you ever have you ever heard of this? Alcohol soaked wet rags, put it on the wings just to test it.

G 9:10

To test it, to see if it freezes. What the what the hell's that? I have no idea. I mean, I was I was thinking like, you know, I don't know. I was thinking about something else. Like I'm thinking, I'm back to those iguanas, like like on your sit time, you could have you could have went and helped someone iguana catch in or something.

Shawn 9:30

No, but I'm if you I mean think about this with the maintenance guys, though. I've never heard of a guy taking an alcohol-soaked rag and putting it on the wing just to test for frost.

G 9:42

Yeah, that doesn't make any sense to me either. It doesn't make any sense. I mean, I don't know anything about it, so I don't know like what's the what's the temperature alcohol freezes and all that stuff, but there must be something type of science behind it, right?

Travel Tales: Lizards, Geese, And Startle Moments

Shawn 9:52

Yeah, our hour and 45-minute delay though. That I mean, I've never I'd never experienced that because of frost. And down there it was it was crazy. But uh, and then this week it's been that whole Florida effect. So we go down there just yesterday. You knew I was down there and we got into this freaking delay that was crazy. I mean, we had aircraft swap delay, and it was it was one of those, it's a nightmare, it's just that rolling uh down the hill ball full of shit.

G 10:21

So how so how did it start for you?

Shawn 10:24

Like well, we went in there, we we had our plane, we were uh going into uh Orlando and we were supposed to turn around and come right back. So another flight, they uh they were delayed, they took our plane.

G 10:34

So the company took your plane from to send it somewhere else.

Shawn 10:37

Yeah, they had to they had a flight that was like a three-hour delay, so they they had taken it, and which they often do, they'll put it somewhere else. Right. So then um they they had given us another plane. Well, that plane was uh coming from somewhere else. Well, that had had a problem, that had a maintenance.

G 10:54

That's some bullshit.

Shawn 10:55

Yeah. So then they had to wait for the pilots, pilots got there, then they they had the maintenance problem fixed, and then they went to test it and had another problem. So it was that snowball effect. So we're sitting in the terminal, but the funny part about it is that you know how you got like um those passengers, they see you, they see the crew.

G 11:13

Oh yeah.

Shawn 11:14

And have you ever like you have the like a passenger stalker? Oh, the ones that because they're like trying to gauge everything off of you that sneaks around. You're like you're sitting over there, and it's like comes over there, and it's like, hey, what are you doing? Uh we're just waiting for the plane, like you. Uh well, so what's the deal? Is there any other real news that you can tell us? Uh no, that's the same new. It's like this stalker, right? They ask you all these questions, and it's pretty funny because you know they're coming back around.

SPEAKER_01 11:45

Yeah.

Shawn 11:45

Right? This guy, this guy kept coming back around and he would ask us these bizarre questions. And the longer the delay went on, the more of the bizarre the questions would come. He'd come back around, all of a sudden, it's like he sneaks around back around the corner. He's like, Uh, do you know if they're gonna give us a hotel room? Uh no, it's not up to us. It's like a stalker. You get a crew stalker.

G 12:08

I mean, it was I will tell you, it's it's the uh to me, like that. That guy's the a conspiracy theorist, right? He he he's the guy that like we know we he doesn't believe anything that's being said. He's questioning every piece of information coming out, and then he knows that the crew knows something that he doesn't know. They think we do, or they think that we don't think we do, yeah.

Shawn 12:32

As soon as you as soon as they see you in the gate area, they they think that you know something. Right. And then and they're like, what are they what what are they not telling us?

G 12:40

Yeah, right? Yeah, yeah.

Shawn 12:42

And they don't they don't understand is that you know what's happened here, especially when a maintenance problem happens, that it's actually maintenance that's not communicating to everybody else because they haven't fixed it.

unknown 12:53

Right.

Shawn 12:54

You can't communicate something, they have no idea. But these guys want answers because they're sitting in a in a terminal. So you get on the PA and you tell them we still don't have any information, and they get pissed. Right? I mean, that's that's exactly how it was yesterday. It was this big, big uh uh mess, and and every time we had people coming over and it was asking us questions, we have no clue whatsoever. It was freaking six hours.

G 13:18

Dude, that is the worst situation as a crew member to be in. Like you you're stuck with the mass of people that you're gonna eventually pack them all in the tube with you, and you know, or at least you think you're going to, right? And then you got to sit there around the airport, like answering all these silly questions and stuff, and we're not getting paid.

Shawn 13:40

That was the key, right? Because he he came over and he goes, Yeah, the one the one thing that he said, he goes, That you guys get paid. And I looked at him, I'm like, who? And he goes, You guys are getting paid. Uh, I don't know who told you that, but we we're not getting paid. We're not getting a dime. Yeah, we're sitting here just see that's that's what they don't understand.

G 14:00

Yeah, the misconception of that they think that just because we're in uniform and we're at the airport that we're getting paid, we're not getting paid.

Shawn 14:07

Go back to that goose egg, we're not making a damn dime. We're sitting there just like them, and and we're we're not making anything.

G 14:15

The only person at the airline that's getting paid are the people that are down on the ramp and the gate agents. The flight crew, pilots, flight attendants, nothing.

Shawn 14:25

Nothing, right? Nope. It was freezing though. I mean, it's absolutely freezing. But um, you know, did you see that? Did you see the Grammys, that Grammy thing?

G 14:34

No.

Shawn 14:34

Okay, I didn't see it either, but I seen that one blurb. That that what's her name, that Chappelle Rone or whatever it is? Chaperon. Chaperon, yeah. That singer. They couldn't have had the Grammys in Florida.

G 14:46

Why is that? Did you see her outfit? No, I didn't see anything. I told you I didn't, I didn't even look at a piece of news.

Shawn 14:53

You gotta see this. She has an outfit that the dress is hooked onto her nipples. That's it. Really? You haven't seen it. Yeah, I mean, it was crazy. It reminded me of uh Kanye West. Remember in 2025, his wife showed up like half naked. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Same thing.

G 15:09

Yeah.

Shawn 15:10

They can't have that in Florida. Right. They should they'd be freezing their somethings off. Yeah. It was bad. Nipples? Yeah, it was bad. Nipples. Freezing her nipples off. Yeah, it was bad. So many things happened. There's a guy, there was a guy on the plane um uh this week. One of the things that bothers me, it does, it bothers me. Do you do you when you go to the bathroom, you say you use the word tinkle? Tinkle? Yeah, tinkle.

G 15:36

No.

Shawn 15:36

Men don't use that, do they?

G 15:38

Women.

Shawn 15:38

I just stand there. I stand there, and and the guy was like, oh, excuse me. He goes, he goes, uh, where do I go tinkle?

G 15:46

He must have a daughter at home or something. I I know, but still. Like that's not adult verbiage. No. No, it's kind of this it's a guy thing too, right? Yeah. I would yeah, tinkle just isn't like like, yeah, I fart too. I don't poof. Poof?

Shawn 16:07

Wait a minute. Did you just say I poof? No, no, no I don't poof either. Or fluff. Yeah, or fluff.

unknown 16:15

Whatever.

G 16:17

Like you listen, there's certain languages like grown men adult language, and then there's certain men languages like for kids. Yeah, tinkle in that. Yeah, you don't use that on uh men conversation.

Shawn 16:31

Uh you you can tinkle in there. I don't know. I uh uh that one just gets me a little bit. And then I had you you're not a rip guy on on the plane. He got his knee bumped. Can't really? Yeah, I can't stand that. I you know when they they they fall over and act like you know they've they you took out their their whole leg. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

G 16:51

I know what you're talking about, yeah. Like the overreactor.

Shawn 16:56

Yeah, if you guys didn't know, we did this whole section about you're not a rip. If you've seen Yellowstone, yeah. And we see a lot of these guys, we we pull their man cards every once in a while. Yeah. But you you know, you're out there and and and somebody you bump somebody, you got a room like this freaking big, and you're taking a cart that's that big, and everybody's sticking their legs out.

G 17:13

Everybody's in the row, yeah, laying out.

Shawn 17:16

And you clip somebody, and it happens. I understand that. And you know, we'll apologize, but man, man card yanked. It was yanked this week. But I had to give it to this one girl, though. She uh uh her mom was yelling at us. I was giving this one lady apple juice, and I get it. She was being a mom. She had an allergy, an app, an apple allergy.

G 17:37

Who did?

Shawn 17:37

The girl. No, the girl over in the aisle, the mom was on the other side, and she's like yelling at me, going, You can't do that. You she's got an apple allergy, you know. And here's the girl, it was so cute. Girl, like, I got my epi pen. The little girl wasn't doing that. She had her pen out. She had her pen out. She was so in tuned, right? That she's watching this lady apple juice, and this is her. Oh, she overreacts. I got my pen. Yeah. And and I'm looking at the mom, I'm like, I fist bumped that girl, man. Because she she was right in. She's like, I I'm I'm I'm ready. Mom, calm the F down. Exactly. I got my EpiPen. So, no, I mean this week has been crazy weather, uh, tinkling, uh, EpiPens. Yeah, it's been a lot of fun. How about you? What's been going on?

G 18:28

Oh, you know, we went we went out to Vegas to see the nieces out there. Nieces were in the uh uh one of them was in the play. So there's three girls out in Vegas, and they're like, um, I'm not gonna quote their age ages, but they're they're they're young girls, right? Like 10, 7, and we have one that's like getting ready to turn four. And these girls, when I come into town, I'm like, I'm like Spon Sean.

Shawn 18:56

No kidding, you're the you're the play toy.

G 18:58

I am the play toy of all play toys. Like they like Carol has a picture of me. There's the dog that's on one side of me. I have the four-year-old on another side of it, and the other one's right between my legs, like talking to me too. I'm like, this is come on. You got it, you got it. You're like cedar point all wrapped up in one little Sean like room here, a little break and all this stuff. But it is, it's it gets crazy. And like, I'm always the dog is the I love dog. Dog's name is Molly, and she's that like as soon as she sees you, she's like, whoo, whoo, whoo, woo, woo, and just like jumps on you, type of thing, you know, like you're just like, whoa, whoa. And she she doesn't realize that she's hurting people, right? You know, but she she just she just happy to see you, you know. Like she and all she wants to do is lick you and have her you pet her. Yeah, that's all she wants. Lay on you, and like she can be right next to you and she'll like slide closer, keep sliding closer. What kind of dog? It's uh doodle. Oh, yeah, yeah. So I mean it it's so it's not like a little, I mean, is it actually a big one? No, it's like a medium size, like it's a it's a it's a pretty hefty, hefty dog. I mean, I had for sure like 45 pounds, 50 pounds, easy. So uh yeah. So um out in Vegas, had to go through, we had to go see a play out there with the girls. Um, we were out doing we they one of the girls was in the annie.

Shawn 20:22

So she was one of the girls is one of the girls is in the annie.

The Six-Hour Delay Snowball

G 20:26

So the mom out there is like she doesn't know that there's limits to activities. Like if the girls want to do it, they're doing it. Right. And how she's gonna schedule it, who knows? Like, everybody's like running around. Girls, one girl's going to dance, one girl's going to play, one girl, you know, like you gotta take care of the baby. Like, it's it's insane. She's a mom, dude. Over like, it's so chaotic. And when we like Carol and I come out there, you know, we're coming back to like no kids, quiet house. Yeah, it is a zoo. Yeah, that's a mom.

Shawn 21:03

Yeah, right? That's a mom. That's why they say multitasking moms, man. It's crazy. It is crazy what moms have to deal with. I mean, dad's dad's just like you you see him on the plane all the time, right? Just pick that shit up, pick that up, pick that up, right? And they're like, okay, whatever you say, honey, whatever you say, just bag it up. But mom, she's like going, no, get this, get this, don't forget this, don't do this. She's like the biggest multitasker.

G 21:27

It is like Courtney's is my my uh niece's name. She is like, I don't, she's been that way ever since she was a kid. Like, even when she was like a kid growing up, like she had a little brother, and she'd be like, little brother's on her lap. She's over here typing, she's over here texting, like with one arm holding the brother at the same time. Like, you're like, oh my god. She's learning. It was like she's like mom and trying to not like change one bit. She does the same thing the over and over. Like it's a it's amazing.

Shawn 21:56

But they but they learn that they learn that from their mom. Because they end up taking care of the little brothers and they're learning how to multitask already. But the one thing now the little boys they're learning shit.

G 22:07

You're talking about speaking about learning. One of the things that these little girls are learning is mom. So mom's like wants them to have like so much like time with their like devices and all that stuff, right? So none of them have phones yet. None of them are of age yet to have a phone. One's just about to get there. And so there's this whole subject of like, you know, the littlest one, the two smallest ones are addicted to Roblox. Do you know anything about Roblox? No. Yeah. See, you're like me. When I throw you, you throw a cut uh subject at me. I'm like, feigning goats. I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah. Well, yeah, but no, but a robot. But Roblox is this game that's like totally addicted. Like everything in this game is like it's an apparent nightmare because you can't do anything in the game without having Roblox cash. And you gotta like pay for every little thing: a hat, a shirt, a smile on a face, whatever. Everything has to be paid for. And these kids are like addicted to it. And so they won't get off their freaking devices. And so she's like teaching them, trying to teach them, you know, oh no, get off this, get off this, get off this. But as soon as she tells them to get off it, you like turn around, here's Courtney. And you're like, I wanted to say something, but you can't like it. This isn't my house to say it. Right. But I'm like, they're only learning from the best. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Yeah. So I'm like, she's like constantly on it, and she's like an executive.

Shawn 23:35

See, but that's the difference between you actually not being a dad because you're like, you, you know, you you're like, I'm not gonna say anything. A dad would say something right away, his ass is gonna be in trouble.

G 23:47

The dad and the mom are both the same way, though. They're both like they're both uh like on their devices, and the kids are only learning from them, like you're saying about them learning, so they're only learning from them, but it's like wow. I mean, I don't know about being parent in today's world and these devices and all that stuff. Yes, it holds their attention, but sometimes, man, it's the devil, right?

Shawn 24:08

Well, the problem, the problem though, even electronics, especially you know, but these kids it it's like a catch-22, right? Right. If if they don't have it in their hands at a young age, they're behind the eight ball. Right. I mean, look at look at the way you are technology-wise. Oh, dude, you're gonna have to have technology. Well, I know, but look at the way you are technology. Imagine these kids having it in their hands at six.

G 24:29

Yeah.

Shawn 24:29

I mean, they their iPads, they know how to do more things than we'd ever know how to do. Yeah, I mean, it it it's crazy, it's crazy the technology to these days.

G 24:37

You're talking about that technology, and so the oldest one has like uh she has an iWatch. Yeah, and so like I have my watch, iWatch, right? And you have an iWatch? No, you kidding me. I got a damn watch. So I got I so I watch, right? And it does all this kind of crazy stuff, but I gotta tell you, I don't do anything but really tell the time with the damn thing. Like it doesn't, I don't really utilize it as much as I should utilize it. But my the little niece, she's out there, and she was sitting there, and I'm like, what are you doing? She's like playing a game on it. Guess what game she was playing? Pong.

Shawn 25:10

No way.

G 25:11

Pong.

Shawn 25:12

She was so you got pong on the on the watch.

G 25:16

I was like, this is like full circle. Like, this is me at a young age, and we were like dying to get on to play some pong pong at home on the TV, and now here she is, little girl, and she's playing pong.

Shawn 25:28

I can't believe Pong came back around.

unknown 25:30

Right.

Shawn 25:30

That is crazy.

G 25:31

Well, I don't think they even called it Pong, right? But that's what she was playing, right? Yeah, whatever they the name they gave it, and you know, some wrist tennis or whatever.

unknown 25:40

I don't know what the you know.

Passenger Stalkers And Pay Myths

G 25:41

I wouldn't even be able to see it. Yeah, yeah, exactly. I mean, like, but the little kid, like she's like, like she's she's telling me um how she gets all these texts and stuff. She gets like hundreds of texts a day, and she gets into group texts. So they have like group texts of all these, like, you know, her little friends, and they'll be going on and on about just nothing.

Shawn 26:04

Have you have you ever not have you have you ever screwed up on one of those? I hate group texts. Yeah. No, serious, seriously, I hate them. Because like I look at somebody, you know, I'm I don't text a few people, you and some other people. All of a sudden they throw me in one of these damn group things.

SPEAKER_01 26:19

Right.

Shawn 26:19

Have you ever like text the group?

G 26:22

Oh, yeah, and you're not you that mistaked it for a different, the wrong thing? Yeah, yeah.

Shawn 26:26

I I I think I told the whole group, I think I love you. Everybody's like, Well, we love you too. And I'm like, damn, I hate that. Take me on the stupid group text. I can't stand those things, man.

G 26:41

I just did that the other day with you. Like, I was trying to text you, and then I text Carol, and she's like, I don't think you're trying to text me.

Shawn 26:48

Right. I hate those things. I mean, they're like, Oh, I I want to tat you in it. You tattoo me in, and then I'll sit there and say something about somebody in the group. It won't be good. I hate this, dude.

G 26:59

Speaking about group, man, so I'm getting ready to go on this trip, and I gotta go, I'm going to Dubai. And so I got to thinking, I'm like trying to figure out like the process, the whole thing in my mind about jet lag. Like, how am I gonna approach this trip? Like, like us flying.

SPEAKER_03 27:17

Talking about jet lag.

G 27:18

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it was like, I was like sitting here like trying to figure out like how am I gonna approach this trip? Because the trip starts, like I'm checking in at eight o'clock, right? And then we really don't take out to like 10 o'clock. And so I'm like, you know, okay, so I'm flying all night, right? You know, East Coast time. So now, you know, from 10 o'clock, we're gonna land probably at like noon over there, right? And I'm like, damn, how do I how do I do, you know?

Shawn 27:48

All right, what's your seniority on that one? I'm number two, dude. Let me tell you something. What I what I learned, and you I don't know if you can try this, but I go down that first break because through the rest of the trip, I'm I'm hydrating, I'm drinking a shitload of water. But if you drink all that water before you go down, you're gonna you have to be up peeing. Yeah, you gotta wake up and take a piss at our at our age. Exactly. I mean, that's what I'm saying is that I went down when I when I learned that uh about uh you know, as far as what break to go down for, normally we think, okay, go on the last break because you're tired. But that's not what I did. I went down on the first break. I actually slept really well and then got up and I just hydrated the rest of the time. But when you get there, yeah, but then you're you're you're gonna go to sleep though, too.

G 28:37

When you get there? Yeah, I guess because we're landing someone later later in the night, right? Right. So yeah. I don't know. Anyways, it was just an interesting, like that I have to like seriously think about how am I gonna approach this trip and what how am I gonna like what breaks am I gonna take on the plane, and then you know, how am I gonna deal with this? Because going west, going to Japan, that was fantastic because it was an early morning check-in, and I'm working like when we were working on the plane, was working in during the day of our normal time zone, right? Whereas now I'm going to the opposite direction, you're going to the east, and now I'm working in the middle of the night versus because we're checking in so late at night. But are you are you drinking a lot of water though? I mean, when you're water, dude, is not even the problem.

Shawn 29:25

That is not my problem. No, I know that. I'm not talking about I know your sleep and everything. I know the sleep pattern, what you're saying. But you know, a lot of the jet lag though is is hydration because a lot of people don't drink.

G 29:35

Yeah, yeah. I'm not worried about uh I shouldn't say that I'm worried about the jet lag. I'm worried more about the like the whole how my body's gonna function as far as the time changes and not the jet lag. The jet lag, like I don't get jet lag, like because uh we we both hydrate too much, right?

Shawn 29:51

Yeah, so it's like it's not there's no such thing as too much, but so you're more concerned about what happens as far as your sleep. Yeah, yeah.

G 29:58

Like how am I how how am I gonna like when I get there, you know, when I got to Japan, I was like had to force myself to stay up a little before I can go to sleep, right? Yeah. So I guess it's gonna be a little bit of the same there, maybe longer. Who knows? But and guess what?

Shawn 30:13

You get to figure it out. I get to find out. You get to figure it out. Like, did you okay? Also, the winter Olympics started. Yeah. That was you could figure that out too, right?

G 30:22

Yeah, the winter Olympics started, man. And uh, you know what's what's so cool about the whole uh winter Olympics being in uh Italy and everything? It's like that's like right in my um my old stomping group.

Shawn 30:33

I know I was thinking that whenever I I I had seen where it was at.

Odd Moments: Grammys, “Tinkle,” And Man Cards

G 30:37

Yeah, Milan was right down the street from where I graduated high school in the Vicenza, Italy. All my Vicenza people, what up? Go, go cougars. Anyways, you're throwing it out there. That's right. And uh, but here's here's the code. So there are opening ceremonies in Milan and the closing ceremonies in Verona. And Verona is was like there was we had kids from our school that actually came to our city to uh go to school that were like embassy kids and stuff in Verona. So the closing ceremony is in Verona, so that that's like I mean, it's all right there. And I did I skied all over those mountains when I was young, you know.

Shawn 31:14

What's your what's your uh favorite winter, the winter uh Olympic sport?

G 31:19

I don't know, man. I mean, as far as like viewing and watching, you know, like everybody likes ice skating. Like I I like to watch ice skating, yeah, but I'm a big like skier. I you well, I used to be a big, real big skier until my knees got jacked up. So like doing the watching the downhill uh racing, which is not so much fun as watching it just to see that the results of it, because you only get to see pieces of it, right? Those guys are moving so fast, but uh like the giant slalom and stuff, that that to me is like classic winter Olympics, right?

Shawn 31:50

How in the hell they see how in the hell they see this the flags, right?

G 31:54

I mean, you right, you take out all of them. It's coming so fast. I know. I mean, they're they're unbelievable. I mean, I s I skied and I I've raced like that and stuff before, not fast as these guys are going, but I mean it it's hard. It's hard like keep your because it's you only have split seconds to figure out what which way you're going, which where's the next flag? How hard do I gotta cut? All that stuff. But I you know I love all that stuff, and also I've always dreamt of I've always wanted to go on a bobsled.

Shawn 32:24

That would be cool.

G 32:25

Yeah, that would be cool. That would be like to be go down on a bobsled. Yeah, I guess in some places, like I did a vacation one time in Innsbruck, Austria, uh, which they held the Olympics there, and they had bobsled runs and stuff, and so these old Olympic uh venues and stuff. I think you can still go to those places and like you know, get somebody to take you down on a bobsled type of thing on a bobsled. That's I would always I will pay money to go do that.

Shawn 32:50

No, that'd be cool. I mean, and the a bobsled definitely. I love the hockey. The hockey. Yeah. Uh the Olympic hockey goes back to um the miracle on ice. Oh yeah.

G 33:00

Oh yeah. Yeah.

Shawn 33:01

I mean, that that that uh that movie um was I mean, it did it did uh so much for uh the Olympic hockey team that that beat Russia. If you guys didn't see that, I mean if you guys have never seen Miracle on Ice, that was um uh I can't even think right now. Is uh You're trying to think of the actors that are in it?

G 33:20

Who cares? The whole the whole the whole story is what was so important to that.

Shawn 33:26

The story was, but I mean it he made it sound so real, but uh you guys have to see that Miracle on Ice was great, it was a great um great movie, but uh it also reminded me that the you remember the Hansen brothers? Oh yeah, you remember them? Uh and I was laughing. I uh Paul Newman was in that slapstick, slapstick, yeah. Yeah, because I I I love the hockey. I mean, I love the hockey and and then the snowboarding. Love snowboarding too.

G 33:52

Snoreblur, so snowboarding is not one of my favorite things. You don't like that? No, no, because you know what? So it's like one of those, it's so it's a new sport, like it's not so new. I mean, it's been out there for a long time, but to me, it's like it's it's just kind of a new, like it's adding skateboards to Summer Olympics.

Shawn 34:12

I thought it was cool though. They I mean the some of the tricks that they did. No, I mean I think it's really cool.

G 34:17

Uh the the skill level and the it's amazing what they do and the tricks and all that stuff is all, but usually that's not my like big huge attraction for the I'm I'm more into like the skinny um hot ice skaters. I'm just saying, just saying.

SPEAKER_03 34:40

Anyways. The skinny hot ice skaters.

SPEAKER_01 34:45

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 34:46

In the in the little bitty uniforms.

G 34:49

Right. Little very skimpy, skimpy uniforms.

Shawn 34:54

You are freaking crazy, man. Oh my gosh.

G 34:59

Yeah, so um, yeah, the uh the the one of the craziest things, man, that uh we were I was thinking about the other day was uh gate lice. Gate lice. Gate lice. You know what gate lice are?

Shawn 35:14

Yep. Yep. Yep. I do, I do, man. We were just we were talking about this the other day because um you there's there's some gates. They they put the the boarding rows right in front when they come out, right? Other ones are side, they put them to the side, right? But the ones that put them into the front, we're watching them, and they all line up like 45 minutes out.

SPEAKER_01 35:38

Right.

Shawn 35:38

Okay. Here's a funny thing. As soon as that plane lands, the gate agent gets on there. I need everybody to clear this area out of the out of the rows one and two because they have to de-plane.

Allergy Scares And Calm Kids

G 35:52

Yeah, it's like here one of my things about this, like exactly your point, is that certain airports are much worse than other airports. Like, you know, like when you go to let's take for instance like uh Houston, uh for us, a lot of the Houston gates, the new ones, like they got them over by the window, they're out of the way, or even in Denver, over by the window, out of the way. But then you get to like small station like us here in Cleveland, like they're putting the rows right there in front, and people are trying to get off. And then you know all those freaking wheelchair scammers, they're all lined up, ready to try to get on, and they got people trying to get people off in a wheelchair, trying to get people on the wheelchair. And we like to call all these people that sit around and jump on the gates and huddle there like 30 minutes early and stuff. We call them gate lights. So if you don't know who you are, you're gate lights, and all crews are making fun of you. All airline people are making fun of you.

Shawn 36:52

But we kind of they they kind of create that though, because they they put these, they put like four lanes, they got back-to-back gates. Yeah. And they got like one, two, and three, and you got six lanes, they're everybody gets into their lane.

G 37:04

Yeah. I mean, I did my biggest thing with the like uh the gate lights thing is that they didn't like the airlines need to manage them better, right? Like they're in the concourses, they block the concourses, people stand around, even when they're like when they finally are really supposed to be boarding, like the airline doesn't manage them well enough. They should have somebody there managing the crowd, being like, get out of the way, you let people in, let people off, all that stuff.

Shawn 37:35

Well, the first thing, the first thing that they do is they create gate lights, though. Right. Because they're they tell them there's only so many bag space. Oh, you want to bring your okay, 45 minutes out, they're telling them bring your bag up and we're gonna check your bag for free. Yeah, and right away, what'd you do? You just created gate lights because it's like, I'm not checking my bag. Yeah, I'll stand here 45 minutes in in this line, right? I'm not checking my bag. So we kind of created it. We started. I mean, we we started right. I mean, as a company, you create it.

G 38:08

Created the anxieties aboard in a plane, right off.

Shawn 38:11

Because you're they were sitting down and all of a sudden they're like, oh no, I gotta get up. And as soon as what happens is as soon as one person gets up.

G 38:17

Yeah, they all start. Oh no, no, no. No, wait, wait, wait. You're trying to get up by me?

Shawn 38:22

Oh no, hell no, I gotta get up now too, right? And they all get up in line, they're like, Oh, no, they start counting bags, right? Because they they wonder if their bags are gonna get on. So we kind of created ourselves, too.

G 38:32

Yeah, that that's just like one of those things that I'm like, you know, we need to freaking uh uh manage it better.

Shawn 38:40

But then you got like a hierarchy, right? Right, because you have the the ones that if if you're elite passengers, they start looking around. How many people are back here? Right?

G 38:50

Oh, sure, yeah.

Shawn 38:51

Right? You have that, yeah. Oh, I'm I'm group one.

G 38:55

Right.

Shawn 38:55

That's like that key and peel group one. Yeah, that little that little video of them, that's a full one of the funniest ones. Yeah. About group one. Oh, excuse me, I'm in group one. And group one is like goes on forever and ever and ever, and they they they give all these other privileges about boarding.

G 39:13

Yeah, man. Group one, group one, like so. We just did that going out to Vegas. So we we flew first class. Oh, yeah, and we got one group one, right? But here's the funny thing about it. Yeah, so here's here's the funny thing about it. So you think that you're gonna be getting on early, which you do in the in the overall scheme of things, you get on early, right? Yeah, but how many people groups get on before you? A lot. Yeah, there's a lot of groups that actually get on before you, right? And so, like, you got you got like the the the elite to the elite. Then there's the super elite, yeah.

Shawn 39:51

And then there's the military. Military, there's the military traveling with their children, and then and it and depending on the gate agents moot mood, it could be like a whole bunch of different things, right? Yeah, you got parents needing assistance, uh uh elderly people needing assistance, right? Are there any people just needing assistance?

G 40:15

Any people with a walker, anybody feeling at the moment that they might need assistance in any way.

Shawn 40:22

Anybody has emotional problems at this time, right?

G 40:28

And then there's gate, then group one comes. Exactly. That's so true. Because we were sitting there, and my my wife and I were like, you know, there's a lot of people getting on this plane before we ever get on, and we're group one. Yeah.

Shawn 40:45

But could you imagine being like group six off? Forget it, man. You have no, you have no chance. We have no chance. This shit's going underneath their seat. Just sit back here and sit down.

G 40:58

Uh-uh. I'm just like, uh, you know, like you, you, you just look at this whole process of the different airlines and how they how they work these boardings and stuff. And we were talking about boardings last week too, but it was like, I got to thinking about it the other day. I was like, this is such a crazy system.

Shawn 41:14

Yeah, you got you have to laugh about it though. I mean, you you're watching, you're watching this play out every day. Every single day you watch it play out.

G 41:21

You know what we haven't done in a long time? We haven't talked about like things that have happened like this week in history, like things and and and you brought up you brought up a whole bunch of lists of all these different things.

Shawn 41:32

I did, but um the funny one is is Orlando is Disney's uh Pinocchio. It actually in in 1940 this week, it actually premiered. Premiered.

G 41:43

Yeah.

Shawn 41:43

Pinocchio, little little bitty Pinocchio.

G 41:46

Dude, I love a Pinocchio. Jimney Cricket, all that stuff. And you know what's funny about that? 1940. Like um now, I don't know if you knew about this, but you know, like copywriting and all that stuff. Like, you know, uh, you know, so you only have copyright laws for so long, like your your art is only protected so long. Did you know that all those new those old ones like Pinocchio and Mickey Mouse and all this stuff? Like, they're not under copyright protection anymore. Really? Yeah. I didn't know that. Yeah. So like under under under the copyright laws now, like, you know, you can actually go and make a print of Pinocchio shirt or you know, you can you can look this up through the copyright uh laws in the US and all this stuff, which ones are available and which ones aren't, but like the original Mickey, you know, Steamboat Willie and all that stuff.

Shawn 42:30

Oh yeah.

G 42:31

It's you can do it, you can print it.

Shawn 42:33

The original Mickey, the original Mickey was actually pretty funny. Yeah. I mean it it looks like do you remember? Did you ever did you ever like um uh take uh a character and and and make it on piece of paper and that kind of thing? Yeah, yeah. You're making a motion and it actually moves. Yeah, yeah. That was like the first Mickey. That's the I mean that's exactly what the first Mickey was. But they in 1958. Now this one, this one was it's one of those ones that are like, how in the hell they do how'd they lose this? But the Air Force lost a hydrogen bomb off off the um uh coast of Georgia.

Kids, Devices, And Roblox Addiction

G 43:09

Dude, that is scary shit. A hydrogen bomb. Like, like how do you lose a hydrogen bomb? That's what I'm saying. I had it under my shoulder right here and it got away.

Shawn 43:22

But the best part, they they never found it.

SPEAKER_01 43:25

Oh, jeez.

Shawn 43:26

They never found it. So it's so they got a hydrogen bomb out there on the coast sitting at the bottom. The the the best part though is that it it doesn't have the arming capsule in it.

SPEAKER_01 43:36

Oh, okay.

Shawn 43:37

So that's good. Yeah. If you found it, maybe they'd be looking for it a little bit more if it had the arming capsule in it. They'd be like, no, we're gonna we're we're gonna find that damn thing.

G 43:51

I'm sure by now some lobster or something would have found that one with the arming capsule.

Shawn 43:56

Hydrogen bump would not be good, would not be good. No, but yeah, that was 1958. 1971, Apollo 14 astronauts landed on the moon.

G 44:06

Cool, man. That's like I know for all you conspiracy theorists out there.

Shawn 44:11

Wasn't 14. They didn't land on the moon. It didn't happen. It was images of 14 feet. It was a Hollywood set.

G 44:20

All that crap. I loved it. I love the conspiracy theorists.

Shawn 44:23

I'm like, you know, I love I love conspiracy theorists.

G 44:26

I know. 1971 brings back so many much memories because, like, when I was a kid, then like all I wanted to do when I was growing up was become an astronaut. Right? Like space program. Yes. Yes. You might want to be an astronaut. I didn't want to be no damn astronaut. So many kids.

Shawn 44:46

I want to drink Tang.

G 44:47

Yeah. Everybody, everything was like about the whole like space exploration. Right. You know, everything. Just like you bring up Tang.

Shawn 44:55

I know that's I want to drink Tang. I didn't want to be an astronaut. But you wouldn't be an astronaut.

G 45:00

I want to be an astronaut, man. I wanted to go in space. I'm going to tell you right now. So, question for you. If you had the opportunity right now and be somebody said, hey, I got a I got an extra ticket for you. We can take you to outer space. Would you go?

Shawn 45:13

I'd have to see what I'm traveling on first.

G 45:17

If it's an Airbus this weekend, probably you're going to say you're going to say no. I'm going to say no.

SPEAKER_03 45:22

I'd have to see the transportation. Who built it? And and the record. And some success rates. Yeah, exactly. I'm going to have to see a few things.

G 45:33

I'm good with watching it on TV. Dude, I'm going to tell you right now. Listen, I'm like, I that would be on my bucket list if I could ever afford to ever do it like that.

Shawn 45:43

I'm the most non-traveling mother.

G 45:45

Yeah, yeah.

Shawn 45:46

You know me. I travel, I travel because I get paid.

G 45:50

Right.

Shawn 45:51

Right? You know, if I if I got a day off, I'm at home. Yeah. I ain't going through the damn thing. They were paying G. Yeah. You're going. I'm going. I mean, seriously. It'd be like, how many hours am I getting?

G 46:05

Am I getting per diem? You know, you know, like with our company here in our lifetime, the next step to like air transportation is going to be like supersonics, right? Yeah. And so I was thinking about this the other day. I'm like, that would be some cool shit to end my career and like be a flight attendant on a supersonic plane.

SPEAKER_03 46:23

Yeah, but we're not gonna get paid as much.

G 46:25

Yeah, because the flights are short.

Shawn 46:30

We don't get paid by how people take the money out of my wallet, Sean. You'll be like, you'll be like, hey, gee, let's let's do this one. No, it's not worth enough. I'm not doing that. But we'll be there in like two hours, man. Like, no. No. No, you don't have to worry about jet lag.

G 46:46

Exactly.

Shawn 46:47

I'm not doing it. Be right where that hydrogen bomb is on the off the coast of uh Georgia. No, I wouldn't, but no, no. And and I I believe the F-14 astronauts on the moon was real.

G 47:00

Yeah, man.

Shawn 47:01

I don't think that it was real. 14 astronauts is what you said? Was it 14 astronauts land on the moon? Yeah. No, 14 astronauts. Yeah. That was good, wasn't it? Apollo 14. Yeah, we made one of those mistakes, didn't we?

G 47:18

I caught that. I know. Hey, I'm human, man. I make a mistake every once in a while. The football team of America. If you were on the moon.

Shawn 47:29

Yeah, yeah, and you were like, foo boo-boo-boo. I was like, what the hell was that? So I said 14 astronauts. Yeah, that would be kind of crowded, wouldn't it? A little bit. Apollo 14, 14 of them crammed up in that little bitty thing. Be like, yeah, I'm not going up. Could you imagine coming back down in that little capsule?

G 47:48

Dude.

Shawn 47:49

We're leaving a few of them up.

G 47:50

That's crazy. That shit was funny. Anyhow. So, anyways, uh, what else this week? Uh in history.

Shawn 47:57

I'm stuck on the 14 ass ones.

Watches, Pong, And Group Text Fails
