Sahm 0:38

And we are back here with lab bar lessons. Alright, I guess we're dying. We are dying early. Alright, let's get into the meat and potatoes of it. I think what we're gonna do just off rip. Speaking of rip. Right, right, right. Anyways, I think I think for fun, just like um, I guess I don't want to say warm-up, but like kind of just get the thoughts flowing. Is you and I we're gonna list our top three most anticipated park visits that we have planned, and then we'll probably go a little bit further and talk about the top probably top three most anticipated rides from each park. Okay, well so for your number three, which park are you which park? And you can count ones that we've been to as well, not new ones.

Ace 1:26

My top three most anticipated parks to we're visiting, like we're planning. Epic universe, okay island of adventure in Universal Studios, Florida. Okay. Actual actual actual stuff. Yeah, actual stuff. I'm really excited. I'm hoping we can hit Dollywood this year.

Sahm 1:48

Dude, that would be sick because with Night Fly opening up.

Ace 1:52

Is that opening this year?

Sahm 1:53

Yeah, it's opening this year.

Ace 1:54

Oh, that's gonna be Hmm. We could try that. You know, as somebody that's never actually been to a ride opening before, I'm probably okay with that being the first one if there is a first one we go to, right?

Sahm 2:13

I don't know exactly when it's opening. I of course probably take a while, guess it's probably gonna be summer. I'd probably imagine.

Ace 2:21

Who knows? No, I definitely got Dollywood on the list. I I would just want to hit that.

Sahm 2:27

We could definitely dedicate a weekend to Dollywood. It's like from what I've gathered, it's definitely a two-day park with everything, especially if we're going for a new ride, right? so we definitely dedicate like a weekend to it for sure. Like seven hour, like seven and a half hour drive, nothing crazy.

Ace 2:44

You know, this isn't gonna be in my list, but the one that I am for sure excited for us to do, just to talk about on the pod and to do videos about Hershey. That's just gonna be a good one. That's just gonna be a good one no matter what. That's always gonna be good. That's only like two hours from us. It's not very bad. Pretty local for us.

Sahm 3:06

Yeah, I gotta hit a stormrunner eventually. I just have not hit that ride.

Ace 3:09

Dude, you still haven't hit Stormrunner?

Sahm 3:11

Yeah, for reasons that I'm not gonna speak on.

Ace 3:13

We need to get Ethan on Candemonium, so that's perfect.

Sahm 3:17

Yeah.

Ace 3:18

He's not he's not paying attention. That's okay. That's okay.

Sahm 3:20

Ethan is 200 feet, is 200 feet tall.

Ace 3:23

We'll give him Starbucks this time. This time I'm not gonna.

Sahm 3:28

What if we get you a couple what if we get you a couple of Brewski's in you?

Ace 3:33

With the bad boys? They only they only have I don't know.

Sahm 3:38

I was about to I was about to like the hum the scene. I was about to hum the theme song, but I didn't know if we were allowed to or not.

Ace 3:42

No, definitely not. I don't know if we actually have beer there, right? I don't know. Yeah, it's a theme park. At Hershey Park? I feel like they only got twisted teas.

Sahm 3:52

Yeah.

Ace 3:52

It's a theme park, bro. Well I was only drinking twisted teas, but that was probably just my choice.

Sahm 3:58

Oh man. Dang it. If I drive us there, I can't dwink. That's so annoying.

Ace 4:05

That's okay.

Sahm 4:07

I'll just, you know. I'll eat some I'll I'll I'll have a piece of candy, you know, because we're at Hershey.

Ace 4:14

The thing is, is that you can have fun without drinking. Me and Ethan are gonna need a couple.

Sahm 4:18

Yeah, I know.

Ace 4:19

Ethan's gonna need him to get on the rides. I'm just gonna need him to socialize with you.

Sahm 4:24

Why do you need a drink? Why do you need a drink to socialize with me? Does that mean you've been drunk every time we've done this?

Ace 4:30

No.

Sahm 4:31

Well then you don't need a drink to socialize with you.

Ace 4:33

Ethan got that out.

Sahm 4:37

No. I think one of the parks I'm anticipating going to this goes. Yeah, what's your third? Bush Gardens, Williamsburg. Oh. I know I can't ride it, but I really want to ride Verbelton, but I can't because it's getting retracked and everything. It's like getting reopening. It's getting like a new name and everything. Griffin, I think.

Ace 5:00

Oh, so that's not gonna be there if we go this year?

Sahm 5:02

Yeah, if we go this year, it's not it's it's not gonna be open.

Ace 5:05

Oh, that's a good one.

Sahm 5:06

They're pretty much they're pretty much like retracking, they're pretty much redoing the whole thing, I think. So yeah, I know I want to do Verbolton, which I'm not gonna be able to do. Griffin, and I don't know the other rides off the top of my head. Griffin is good.

Ace 5:21

I think I'm trying to remember some of the names. they got like the I think it's the Eagle. Texas Tornado. Wait, no, that's Hollywood.

Sahm 5:30

Yeah.

Ace 5:30

Bush Gardens. the Apple.

Sahm 5:37

I I don't know, unfortunately.

Ace 5:39

I remember the colors of the coasters. The yellow one.

Sahm 5:45

The yellow one, the red one, the and the blue one, the purple one. I love the blue one. Have I read a blue coaster?

Ace 5:53

We never claim to be experts.

Sahm 5:55

Have I read a blue coaster? blue coaster. There's no blue coaster the Velocicoaster is gray.

Ace 6:01

Yeah, it's black.

Sahm 6:03

It's gray. It is. Black. It's gray. Okay. Anyways. Black. No. Rip ride rocket was red. Blue. Sky Rush is yellow, Stormrunner didn't ride, Candemonia's brown. Wildcats is an RMC wooden coaster. Dominator's yellow. Super duper looper. I didn't ride super duper looper.

Ace 6:33

No blue ride.

Sahm 6:35

Rapter is green, Pethereon's like purple, no, no, no, no, no, no. The card vehicle is purple, it's yellow now. Or orange.

Ace 6:44

So back to Bush Gardens.

Sahm 6:46

Yeah. Sorry, real bad side tangent. I haven't ran a blue coaster.

Ace 6:50

bush gardens will be fun because then you can ride Pantheon.

Sahm 6:55

That's that's one of them that I've heard. That's that's at Busch Gardens. That's really fun and good.

Ace 7:00

What I what I can say for the listeners, if you're afraid to ride Velocicoaster, but you're in the East Coast, go on Pantheon first. See how you feel about that guy. I personally went on Velocicoaster first when I was in Orlando. But after I went on Pantheon, it was kind of like, okay, these guys aren't so bad.

Sahm 7:24

Yeah. So yeah. your what's your what's the what's the number two?

Ace 7:29

Number two?

Sahm 7:32

I think I feel like we're gonna have the same number one, by the way.

Ace 8:06

Either if we're gonna hit the south, the midwest, or if we're gonna do more of the PA stuff.

Sahm 8:13

We're definitely doing the PA stuff first because it's just the easiest to do.

Ace 8:17

Well, then I know Great Adventure isn't in PA, but it's pretty close to some of these places. But I I'm gonna say Dorney Park, I'm excited about because I haven't I I don't know anything about it.

Sahm 8:28

Yeah, I don't either.

Ace 8:29

That might be fun.

Sahm 8:31

Yeah, that's I know we're gonna hit that one soon-ish.

Ace 8:33

Probably within you know, while we're on that, you understand this better than a lot of people. I think this would be good for the listeners. Okay. Can you kind of break it down for the people that don't understand kind of what this whole pass system is for six flags slash cedar fairs?

Sahm 8:52

The passes?

Ace 8:53

Yeah.

Sahm 8:54

Oh, the gold pass, yeah.

Ace 8:56

Like a little master a brief masterclass on kind of what how these how these work.

Sahm 9:01

so basically, basically from what I gathered, I'm kind of this this part I'm a little bit speculative. I'm kind of speculating on based on my experience. I was looking into gold passes for King's Dominion.

Ace 9:11

You didn't get yours yet, right?

Sahm 9:12

I haven't gotten it yet. I haven't gotten it yet. I'm getting it either next check or the check after that, one of the two. so the gold pass gives you, you know, a limited unlimited visits to King's Dominion. but also gives me unlimited limited to other six flags in the area, like Dorney Park. I think one a little bit like in North Carolina. I'd have to double check. so I think depending on which park you get the gold pass for, you kind of get unlimited access to like like parks under the six flags umbrella, like relatively nearby.

Ace 9:47

Which I think is why we put the Dorney Park on this list, right?

Sahm 9:51

I mean, it kind of just coincided. I put it on the list because it was like in the general area. It's like it goes tandem. It's like we if we head out towards Dorney Park, it's like Dorney Park, Kirchy Park, and Great Adventure. And then but if we're head to like King's Dominion, then it's like King's Dominion Bush Gardens, you know. It's just like little pockets of theme park, you know what I mean? But there is a there's a pass where you can go to any six flags in the in the country, that's like the prestige pass, I think is what it's called. I could be wrong.

Ace 10:21

platinum prestige pass.

Sahm 10:24

Something something it's it's a word that starts with a P, bro. That's what that's what all these passes like. It always has to start with a P for like for some reason. but yeah. For my number two, I wanna say. Hmm. I know what my number one is for sure. My number two prestige pass. Yeah, it was prestige, yeah. Who knew? I did.

Ace 10:53

gives you unlimited access to all 42 six flags and former Cedar Fair parks.

Sahm 11:00

So good.

Ace 11:01

That's crazy. So what's your number two?

Sahm 11:04

That's what I'm trying to think. I know what my number one is for sure. Easy. Me too. We're gonna say at the same time. We're gonna do our number one at the same time.

Ace 11:12

I don't I don't think you're ready for my number one.

Sahm 11:16

Okay, I gotcha. I think my number two, funny enough, is probably King's Dominion.

Ace 11:21

You know, I'm glad you mentioned that because this will be a good time to shoot a video and watch me overcome me. A great time to watch me and Ethan overcome our fear of Giga Coasters. Right? Yeah, he's not getting on that. I promise.

Sahm 11:44

Ethan, it'll be okay.

Ace 11:46

I promise he's not getting on that, dude. Because I'm already gonna be hesitant about it. And I love coasters. You can't. I'm gonna do it for the content, dude, but I'm scared. I'm scared, guys. I've never gotten on a Giga. This is gonna be my first Giga.

Sahm 12:02

My first Giga.

Ace 12:03

Tell them what a Giga is.

Sahm 12:04

Giga is 300 feet, it's 300 feet plus. There's only eight of them in the world.

Ace 12:08

Ethan is shaking his head right now. He's just like, no way.

Sahm 12:11

But yeah, my first giga my first Giga Coaster was actually Pantheon, formerly known as I Intimidator 305. King's Dominion in I miss when that thing used to black me out. I don't know, I grayed out on a thing. But yeah, I decided to ride it at night, back row, left seat. I don't know. So like it can't get any more intense than that. But yeah. I'm excited for I'm excited for King's Dominion because I just only because so because you're because for you can't talk. For you riding Pantherian.

Ace 12:44

It's gonna be fun, dude.

Sahm 12:45

Oh, you get to ride Raptera too. I know, I know, you, I know. Oh, I haven't ridden that yet. Yeah.

Ace 12:51

Oh man. Dude, isn't that so cool that that one of our buddies is on that promo pick?

Sahm 13:00

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thanks to him, I was able to go. I was actually able to go to King's Dominion for free.

Ace 13:05

Oh, cool. Shout out to him, dude.

Sahm 13:07

Yeah, cool guy.

Ace 13:09

So my number Oh, our number one. My number one? You you want to say it at the same time.

Sahm 13:15

Okay, we don't have to. We don't have to, because now I have a feeling it's actually we're not gonna have the same number one.

Ace 13:19

We 100% are not going to. Because I'm really excited for this. It's a passion project of mine.

Sahm 13:27

You're gonna say something like Legoland in California?

Ace 13:32

No!

Sahm 13:33

No, you know you can't, you know you can't go into Legoland without a kid.

Ace 13:37

Really?

Sahm 13:38

Yeah. Are you sure about that? I'm pretty positive.

Ace 13:42

Can you fact check that? Legoland without a kid? I don't think that I don't think that's true, dude. That's crazy. I mean, I get dude. There's there's fans older than 18 that are fans of Lego.

Sahm 13:59

Yeah, you can get without guys.

Ace 14:01

Yeah, Josh, you're one of them. You're a guy that likes Lego still.

Sahm 14:05

You you're telling me I'm I'm leaning away from Lego right now.

Ace 14:08

You know, it's actually fun. Side note since you mentioned Lego Land. Well, you mentioned Lego land. I want to tell the people about it. I'll tell you about my number one. It's good. It's look what you got me doing nine weeks later. God. Anyone's been following since the first episode and they Yeah, shout out to you.

Sahm 14:34

So where is it?

Ace 14:38

Okay. Legoland, Florida just opened up a new area called Legoland Galaxy. Yeah, and has they got the Galactic Coaster.

Sahm 14:46

Yeah, I know about it. You can design your own, you can design your own your own ride vehicles and everything.

Ace 14:51

How do you do that?

Sahm 14:52

Good question, I have no idea.

Ace 14:54

That sounds cute.

Sahm 14:56

Yeah, it's definitely sick. yeah. I do I do know about the good code that coaster opening up. It's definitely gonna be a big boot, big big for that company for that land, for that theme park.

Ace 15:10

Alright, well, now that we have fact checked that Josh just straight lied about getting into Legoland without a spread misinformation. What is your number one excited place to go to this year?

Sahm 15:24

Oh, it's this year? Oh, we're not going this year.

Ace 15:30

Tell them why.

Sahm 15:32

What's up? You're partially correct. Ooh, twist. Ooh, we got ourselves a development.

Ethan 15:39

The Discovery Center, you need at least one child per group.

Sahm 15:43

Ooh.

Ethan 15:44

Whatever the Discovery Center is.

Ace 15:47

Okay. If you go to Legoland and you go to the Discovery Center and you're an adult and a genuine fan, well, screw you. You're not coming in.

Sahm 15:56

Well, hold up.

Ace 15:57

Look at this.

Ethan 15:58

Oh.

Sahm 15:58

Development.

Ethan 16:00

I wasn't allowed in Legoland without a child. Hold up.

Sahm 16:06

Wait, come on, come over here. Oh, I can't read it from here. You can't read it from here. the hell are they doing up there?

Ethan 16:18

Is there a Legoland in Kansas City?

Sahm 16:21

maybe. I yeah, this this this is this is the theme park knowledge that is not not my strong suit. He's doing whatever the hell they want up there.

Ethan 16:33

Okay, there is Legoland Discovery in Kansas City.

Ace 16:37

Oh, I think that's different. I don't think that's I don't think that's one of their I don't think that's like the theme parks in California or or Florida.

Sahm 16:48

Florida.

Ethan 16:51

You're right. Legolands in Kansas City. This person could not get in because they they now have a child 17 and under. They could go to the gift shop.

Sahm 17:07

They go to the gift shop.

Ace 17:08

So an 18-year-old and a 17-year-old can go in there and wreak havoc. And that's fine. But as soon as you're 19 and 18 now, get out.

Ethan 17:17

This comment says sounds like it was a Legoland Discovery Center. So those you need the kid to go into. So you are right.

Ace 17:25

So that's like probably a kid's zone. Look, that doesn't sound much different than when I was at all ages, but the Discovery Center is you need a kid. Okay, the Discovery Center makes sense because, dude, when I went to the little Looney Tunes movie set section in Six Flags America, which is like a kid play area, I was trying to go in there to see the area, and the guy looked at me and was like, Man, why are you trying to go in there? Kids are playing in there. And I was like, Okay, yeah, you're right. And I didn't go in there.

Sahm 17:54

Nice.

Ethan 17:55

Because it probably would have been weird. This comment says the Discovery Centers are basically indoor playgrounds with the Lego theme. There really isn't much for an adult to do it.

Ace 18:10

Well, then that makes sense. Yeah, alright. So if you're an adult. Okay, so if you're an adult and you want to go into the Discovery Center, unless you have a kid, you're not getting in there. Okay, we've we figured that out there.

Sahm 18:21

Okay, my number one was Cedar Point.

Ace 18:23

We could get into LEGO Land.

Sahm 18:25

My number one was Cedar Point.

Ace 18:27

That's probably next year.

Sahm 18:29

Yeah.

Ace 18:30

Here the this is the rule we are setting, and this is a good one. We are not allowed, and I'm saying this official on the podcast.

Sahm 18:39

Okay.

Ace 18:41

We are not going to Cedar Point until Ethan gets on a Giga.

Sahm 18:46

What the f Oh that was close. That was close. That was close. What do you mean?

Ace 18:56

You know what I mean?

Sahm 18:59

Ethan, what's the tallest coaster you'll go?

Ace 19:01

I'm not going to Cedar Point with Ethan if he's not getting on any of them, dude.

Sahm 19:06

Ethan, what's the tall what's the tallest you'll do?

Ethan 19:09

I I I mean, they all feel tall to me. I don't know.

Sahm 19:13

I mean, that's a good and a bad thing, because then you won't notice the like the $100 if you don't.

Ethan 19:18

All of them.

Sahm 19:21

You should probably put a flag for yourself there. Yeah.

Ace 19:25

Ethan potty mouth flag. Yeah, you just bleep it.

Sahm 19:30

I don't know. Ethan, we are more we are more statistically likely to die in the car on the way to the park than you will on the ride.

Ethan 19:39

I know. I don't think I'm gonna die on them, but you don't like adrenaline?

Sahm 19:44

In my soul? Something, something. Whoa! They cannot copyright that. You're more than welcome to try. Why?

Ace 19:58

What what makes soon so as soon as he gets on as soon as we can work Ethan up to Pantheon? We'll go to Cedar Point.

Sahm 20:10

Oh yeah, you're fine then. Yeah. Yeah, I got you. I got you. Don't worry. Don't worry. There's there's a ride at King's Dominion that's only about 200 feet. No, it's about 200 feet. we can get you that we could probably get you on. 200 feet? You think you can do that?

Ace 20:30

He's already done 200 feet.

Sahm 20:32

Oh yeah. Yeah, it's Sky Rush.

Ace 20:34

He's done Sky Rush.

Sahm 20:35

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the same, it's the same high as Sky Rush. It's the same high as Sky Rush. It's Yeah, it's it's like towards the back, it's like towards the back of the park.

Ethan 20:44

Yeah, I mean, I didn't even realize how high Skyrush was. It was just like what are you talking about?

Ace 20:53

Holy shit. Oh. That's awesome.

Sahm 20:58

Yeah.

Ace 21:02

So Pantherion? Pantheon.

Sahm 21:08

Pantheon is what is how you pronounce it.

Ace 21:11

Truthfully, we're probably not gonna be able to set foot in Cedar until we can get into Bush Gardens and Six Fox Great Adventure. Because that's where the little more intense guys are.

Sahm 21:26

Yeah.

Ace 21:27

And it's there's stop it. Stop. There's no argument that Cedar Point has the most intense coasters. Has the best coaster lineup. That'll be your first blue one. Millennium Force.

Sahm 21:44

Yeah, my first blue one, yeah.

Ace 21:46

300 feet.

Sahm 21:47

300. First of its kind. Unless unless we like unless we mess around and go do Fury 325 before we go to before we go.

Ace 21:55

Isn't that a Carowin?

Sahm 21:57

That was a Carowin's.

Ace 21:59

Uh

Sahm 22:01

Alright, well we can also go do Leviathan in King's Island that is also in Ohio.

Ace 22:05

Alright, well I think I'm ready to officially announce my number one anticipated trip.

Sahm 22:10

Okay.

Ace 22:11

So as a theme park enthusiast, I also really like animatronics. So I'm happy to announce that our first official trip is going to be in West Virginia at Billy Bob's Wonderland. My number one anticipated trip. I'm so excited. Josh is very excited. It's gonna be so fun.

Sahm 22:51

Yeah. Woo.

Ace 22:53

He just doesn't get it yet.

Sahm 22:55

I guess I don't. Unless you want to go, unless you want to go to the Philadelphia museum thingy.

Ace 23:01

Oh, we I really want to do that. It'd be so fun.

Sahm 23:06

Depending on my next check, we can probably do it not. So like today's Wednesday.

Ace 23:11

As soon as my job doesn't have me working Saturdays anymore, we'll be good.

Sahm 23:16

Does it open on Sundays? I think so. Because because there's a Sunday coming up that I think we could do it on depending on depending on how my check is. That'll be very tragic.

Ace 24:02

What the heck? Oh $47! Holy crap.

Sahm 24:08

Yeah, I was gonna get your ticket if I could get it if I if my jacket's good.

Ace 24:13

Oh, they got the evening tickets. Those are cheaper. They're 25.

Sahm 24:20

Hey, hey Alex. You know what's funnier than 24?

Ace 24:25

Shut up. You said that last podcast.

Sahm 24:28

25.

Ace 24:33

Okay. So you can pay $47 to go during the day when all the field trips are happening and it'd be crowded and you pay more money. Or you can go in the evening for $25 where it's quiet and chill.

Sahm 24:47

And then you go to Angelo's to go cheesesteak.

Ace 24:49

Woo boy.

Sahm 24:52

That sounds good right now.

Ace 24:55

How far is King of Pressure from there?

Sahm 24:58

I mean, I don't know off top of my head. It's in Philadelphia. It's gotta be like within 20 minutes.

Ace 25:03

Maybe we can do the maybe we can go there and do the oh crap. What's it called? It's losing me.

Sahm 25:14

This is the One Piece thing again. No, we already know.

Ace 25:16

Well, I know the Adams family. Wednesday.

Sahm 25:20

That's today.

Ace 25:22

Huh. Don't dox us.

Sahm 25:26

How would we dox us on a day of the week? I figured out what day they're recording. It's funny because we're not even gonna upload on Wednesdays. Oh, sorry, broke continuity. Fourth wall breaking. Ah. Sorry, no meta commentary. I think we're gonna die.

Ace 25:54

Yeah, I'm pretty excited on these trips. I'm just burnt out from working.

Sahm 26:13

Jeez.

Ace 26:14

So let's let's talk about the let's talk let's talk about our research that I made you do today.

Sahm 26:22

Yeah, that was that was why don't you why don't you lead us off on that one?

Ace 26:27

Well what'd you think? Well tell tell tell tell our listeners about what I what you watched today.

Sahm 26:32

what I was forced to watch.

Ace 26:35

Oh no, hold on. Explain it to somebody as if they've never seen it like you went in today not knowing about it.

Sahm 26:44

Are you talking about what exactly it is? Because I do know what it is. I just is it Okay, I watched a seven-minute bluey episode called Grandma Mobile. Something along those lines.

Ace 26:57

Scratchy grannies.

Sahm 26:59

Yeah, and the reason for that is because at King's Islands, I right, King's Islands.

Ace 27:06

I believe so, yes.

Sahm 27:07

Here, Alex, you you have the facts on this one. If it isn't universal or six flags related, I I don't know much.

Ace 27:31

So the ride is called Bluey the Ride, Here Comes the Grannies, and it's coming to Alton Towers.

Sahm 27:38

Alton Towers is what it was. Isn't Alton Towers like a European park?

Ace 27:44

Yes.

Sahm 27:45

Look at me.

Ace 27:46

It looks cute. Oh my goodness, it looks like a little tyke coaster. The coaster looks like little tykes.

Sahm 27:54

Oh, that's nice.

Ace 27:56

And you got you got Bluey and Bingo in the front. I think Bingo's the name of the sibling. But yeah. We watched an episode of Bluey. We watched the Grouchy Granny's episode. Very wholesome, very adorable. Josh was being weird and being a hater. He just doesn't understand greatness like like our beautiful mouse sees greatness, apparently. That's goofy.

Sahm 28:33

Yeah. No, it's not good. No, goofy's like gorgeous.

Ace 28:39

So if you're if you're not very familiar with Bluey yet, the main thing that this generation needs to know is it's the most popular children's cartoon at the moment. But Disney seems to view this as a little more than just that. It they're looking at it on a little more of a scale of like, this is the next Winnie the Pooh. This is the next like big toy, big plushy character. This is the next biggest children's cartoon, probably ever. And they want a piece of the pie, so you're gonna be seeing a lot of Bluey in Animal Kingdom soon, too. They let me see here. Hold on.

Sahm 29:25

It was kind of reminding me of Max and Ruby in certain spots.

Ace 29:29

Oh, yeah, do tell.

Sahm 29:31

I mean, it just did have that vibe to it.

Ace 29:34

So Bluey and Bingo are coming to Disney's Animal Kingdom on the 26th of May this year. It's gonna be a little play and dance area in the conser conservation station. It'll be right by Rafiki's Planet Watch. Rafiki. So that looks fun. Lots of Bluey stuff going on. My dog, my dogs love Bluey. I put it on for my I put it on for them every morning.

Sahm 30:03

My nephew loves Bluey as well. Yeah? Yeah.

Ace 30:05

It's a good show.

Sahm 30:11

But yeah, I watched the episode today, and the only thing that really got me was like the Pug character. That was kind of actually pretty funny. Pug, yeah. Because Pug is such an old woman dog, too. It's it I don't know what it is with old white women, and like they just love these little ugly dogs, man. I had a I don't even know if I can say this on here, so I had a my my nanny, my my one of my like great grandmas, she had a dog, she had a little little dog, a little ugly dog. And but the the reason why it's hard for me to say is because she she named it Qing Ching. Oh and when Ching Ching died, she got another dog of the same breed and named it Qing Ching.

Ace 31:03

Ching Ching the second?

Sahm 31:05

No, it was just Qing Ching. Oh to everyone else in the family it was Qingqing 2. And then when that Qing Ching died.

Ace 31:12

No way.

Sahm 31:13

She got another dog and she named it Qing Ching. And that was Ching Ching 3. That was the last one before she passed as well. Oh yeah, that little that one I think, yeah, the one that little little bastards got me. Ching Ching 2, yeah. That was that was Ching Ching 2. If you can see right there, it's a little there's a little you see this little like line right there.

Ace 31:36

Dang it, Ching Ching.

Sahm 31:38

Yeah, Ching Ching, Ching Ching did that one. Little bastard. Rest and piss, bozo. Sorry, daddy. Ching Ching only liked you, bro. She she she did not like anyone else.

Ace 31:51

Ching Ching the third still alive?

Sahm 31:53

No. Oh no. Oh god, I can call my mom right now just be like you don't want to talk about Ching Ching for a sec.

Ace 32:04

Oh my god. So I didn't tell you about Garrett's dog yet. You haven't told me this yet. But you said it was funnier than when he Ethan, put a big flag here just in case we gotta cut this part out.

Sahm 32:25

Just get it ready, don't put it there yet.

Ace 32:27

Ethan, I want you to lock in on this, okay? So Garrett has a Yorkie.

Sahm 32:39

This big, right?

Ace 32:41

15 years old.

Sahm 32:43

Yeah.

Ace 32:45

His mom was outside this morning with the dog. Just enjoying the sun, having a good time. Well, neighbor comes out with the pit bull. They're walking through. Bailey, the little the little Yorkie. She's always been so brave. She runs on over to the gate. Pit bull breaks the leash, runs over to the gate, gets his nose under the gate, snatches her. Oh yeah. If Ethan leaves this in the pod and you're listening, I just shook my head violently.

Sahm 34:09

Is the dog alive?

Ace 34:11

Neither of them are.

Sahm 34:13

Oh what the hell happened?

Ace 34:26

What do you think happened?

Sahm 34:29

Well what happened to the pit bull?

Ace 34:33

Got the death penalty. Oh yeah. While I was telling the story, Ethan had to walk out and take a break. He was like, No, I gotta go.

Sahm 35:19

Oh my god. Hey guys, we're laughing. We're laughing at dead dogs.

Ace 35:24

No, it's just terrible. It's just terrible.

Sahm 35:27

Yeah, it's so awful. Alright, Ethan, Ethan, both of the both of the the dogs in the story are dead. Oh wonderful, dude.

Ethan 35:38

That's exactly the ending I wanted to hear.

Ace 35:47

So Garrett's mom freaks out, runs inside. Wait, just woke me up from my fing nap, dude.

Sahm 35:58

Yeah.

Ace 36:00

Wait, wakes him up. Ah, Garrett, you gotta you gotta get help. You know, like right. So he runs on out.

Sahm 36:10

Yeah.

Ace 36:13

And as he ran out there, he could already tell she was lifeless at that point. Like, already. The the guy who was walking the dog wasn't the owner. He was the roommate of the owner. Now imagine coming home to that. Hey dude, you gotta move out. You killed my dog. No, so imagine coming out.

Sahm 36:55

It was a pit bull? Yeah. 305.

Ace 37:01

So Garrett ran out. The owner, or not the owner, the roommate, is like choking this dog like anaconda vice. Right? And the dog is still just straight. Just not letting her go. Give me the little lamb there.

Sahm 37:39

Oh no. Don't give it to him. Don't give it to him.

Ethan 37:42

I'll trade for the charge. Is that USB C that was that was the worst trade in history?

Ace 37:48

It's an Anacon device.

Sahm 37:51

I swear to God, that squeaked I was gonna lose my mind.

Ace 37:57

It's horrible, but yeah, animal control came. And I'm at I was asking Garrett about it, I was just like, are you okay? And I was like, how's your mom? He goes, Oh, she's fine. It was me that had to clean up the guts.

Ethan 38:24

Yeah, it's I'll tell you what's not making it on this podcast tonight.

Ace 38:31

The the Yorkie funeral. You could call it that. Garrett's been making jokes about it all day. He'd be alright with it. Dude, you gotta understand. Look, here's here's here's the piece I do want here's the piece I do want to make on it, okay? We would go in this route, we would go in this house. And this little gremlin, this two-inch gremlin, blind as a bat, can't see anything, or just running over at you. And they would take her to the vet every year, and the vet would just look at this thing, this gremlin, and they'd be like, Yes, got perfect quality of life, still good, no problems with her. And every year they'd be like, Really? Like she's she's good, yeah. So yeah, we would we would joke and be like, Oh, why don't you just die already to the dog, right? That's a joke. But the real tragedy is that we didn't want her to die that way. That's not how we wanted her to go. That's terrible. We just wanted her to have a peaceful old old old ass death, just old lady death, just a heart attack. I don't know, stroke, I don't know. Not get chewed up by a fing T-Rex, like that's the worst way she could have gone out, dude. It's horrible. This poor little old lady just dude. She talked to the wrong one.

Sahm 40:24

After how I found out.

Ace 40:26

So, in other news, Epcot is having their flower and garden festival for anybody that's fascinated with that. Now me personally. You know what? I'll just give flowers.

Sahm 40:40

Okay, okay, okay.

Ace 40:41

Now me personally, I'm not very I'm not really into it. I haven't looked into it. I haven't learned anything about this flower and garden festival. The only thing I really know is that it's got some food booths, topi topiaries, entertainment areas. Am I using that right, topiaries?

Sahm 41:00

What the heck is topiary?

Ace 41:02

damn, you're gonna put me on the spot like that.

Sahm 41:11

Quick teleprompter, quick, stop, pause.

Ace 41:14

Oh, it's the practice of clipping shrubs. I was right. I was right.

Sahm 41:19

Clipping shrubs.

Ace 41:20

So, like, you know, strawbert hedge.

Sahm 41:23

Okay.

Ace 41:25

Yeah, let me get one. You know, you can't have all those, dude. You have to sleep here if you're having those. Give me one. Give me two. You can have four of those. You can't have you can't have all six of those. That's crazy. Yes, the f you are. Put a flag. I said f put a flag, he said f so Rocket Roller Coaster is officially dead. Long live the Muppets.

Sahm 41:56

For for a second, I thought you were talking about Hollywood Rip Rocket. I was like, Alex, it's been like it's since August, man. We've already discussed it.

Ace 42:03

No, you're just out of touch.

Sahm 42:06

What does it mean to be out of touch?

Ace 42:08

It means you're not familiar with something because you're not around it. Now, usually we use the phrase out of touch, though. I'm using it incorrectly on purpose. Because usually you call a celebrity out of touch or a person of influence out of touch. You just haven't been to Disney World, so you're just broke. That's not out of touch.

Sahm 42:27

I mean, you ain't lying. You ain't lying. She you ain't lying.

Ace 42:35

by the way, my catch-up is anybody that's listening and following us.

Sahm 42:44

Please.

Ace 42:45

We probably well mean we're definitely gonna go to Disney World. We just we're kind of waiting for all the other stuff to open up because they got a lot of new stuff coming. True, true, true. And you know, I definitely want to see the Monsters Inc. thing. I definitely want to see the new Indiana Jones ride.

Sahm 43:09

Really?

Ace 43:10

Yeah, really.

Sahm 43:12

Okay.

Ace 43:12

Nah, it's that's so dorky to be like, oh my god, you burp farted. I can't believe it.

Sahm 43:19

I can't believe it.

Ace 43:20

I can't believe you did that. There was some other things that I saw that was getting the retracked. I'm trying to remember. Big Thunder Mountain is one of them.

Sahm 43:36

Big Thunder Mountain, Jurassic Park, River Adventure, whole new track. Must be exciting.

Ace 43:41

I'm excited to see what that whole thing is about.

Sahm 43:44

Yeah.

Ace 43:45

in some Disney news, Disneyland Paris has a whole new expansion now.

Sahm 43:53

Oh, it's where all the adults can go smoke. No.

Ace 43:58

Oh my goodness.

Sahm 44:00

Finally, you can smoke at Disney World. It's cool to smoke, kids.

Ace 44:06

It's gonna be called the World of Frozen. This is actually a pretty big deal. I forgot about this. The reason it's a big deal is because this is like one of the first massive extensions. One of the first massive extensions that Disneyland Paris has had.

Sahm 44:27

Do you think that Frozen 3 is going to be announced around the time?

Ace 44:30

I wouldn't be surprised.

Sahm 44:32

Frozen 3. We're not letting it go.

Ace 44:38

Disneyland Paris was very underwhelming. Are you speaking from are you speaking from personal experience? No. Just from research, the community, just the culture. Yeah. Video essays.

Sahm 44:52

All of those.

Ace 44:56

Where's this guy going?

Sahm 44:57

Where's this guy doing?

Ace 44:58

Yeah. Where's this guy from? I learned a little more about these musk tunnels. No. the one thing that I do know I'll have to I'll have to figure out again where it was built originally. Maybe you could do a fact check for me, Ethan. But it the company that did it before built it pretty well in the other city. So it should end up being pretty good when it actually comes over to Orlando. But the other thing right now is that they're actually waiting on the approvals for it. So the city could end up just being like, no, we don't want this.

Sahm 45:52

I mean it's hard. I'd imagine it's probably hard to to like do tunnels in Florida.

Ace 45:59

Very hard.

Sahm 46:00

Yeah.

Ace 46:01

Sand and you know, they can't have basements in Florida.

Sahm 46:03

Yeah.

Ace 46:05

Fun fact if you didn't know that. Because of sand.

Sahm 46:12

Which kind of sucks because I love a good basement. We're I guess we're technically in one right now.

Ace 46:17

You just get higher above levels.

Sahm 46:19

I guess.

Ace 46:21

Your living room and your house. Everything's kind of on the first floor.

Sahm 46:26

Yeah, but basements are cool. We're kind of in one right now. Sick.

Ace 46:31

We're like underground and half underground. Don't talk to me.

Sahm 46:36

Yeah. Unless you like live in like New Orleans and you're always underground. That we go.

Ace 46:53

I ha sorry, I I thought of I thought of something.

Sahm 46:56

Okay.

Ace 46:58

I I've I'm I'm drawing a blank because I feel like we may have talked about it already. You have the little pass for that Six Flags in New Orleans, right?

Sahm 47:08

Yes, my season pass.

Ace 47:10

That's the one that was taken away from Katrina, right?

Sahm 47:13

Yeah, Katrina's destroyed it.

Ace 47:15

So you went to that six flags before we shut down?

Sahm 47:18

Before it was destroyed, yes.

Ace 47:20

Dude, have you seen any videos of that being abandoned?

Sahm 47:22

Mm-hmm. I have. Is that weird? A little bit, yeah.

Ace 47:28

So as people here native.

Sahm 47:31

No, Ethan hasn't seen it.

Ace 47:33

As people native in DC. Right? Oh my god, Ethan is just we're we're in Washington, D.C., and our our native park is probably Six Flags America.

Sahm 47:46

It was.

Ace 47:48

We just there's some videos of some kids that are getting in that park.

Sahm 47:53

Yeah, I saw I saw it on I saw it on TikTok the other day of like they were like under, they were in the section of the Superman ride, the giant like loop. They're just like chilling in there. It was kind of sick.

Ace 48:04

I've seen people entering where the bat wing was, and some people getting in where the some people were getting in through where the heart stopper was mind eraser, I don't know what they renamed it as. Yeah. Dude. I I allegedly really wanna I kinda wanna do that.

Sahm 48:29

Oh yeah.

Ace 48:30

But I'm also 30 and have my together, so I don't want to like risk it for a biscuit.

Sahm 48:35

It's almost 20, it's almost 22 years old.

Ace 48:36

Yeah, show show Ethan that.

Sahm 48:38

Ethan. What's it?

Ethan 48:45

Oh, six flags.

Sahm 48:46

In New Orleans before Katrina took it. This was issued. This was issued March 27th, 2004. It's a piece of history.

Ace 48:53

Look at Lil Josh.

Sahm 48:54

Yeah, this is a piece of piece. Yeah, it's a little I'm in there.

Ethan 49:00

I didn't even know I've been holding with my gloves on, so yeah, you're good. It's history, dude.

Sahm 49:06

It's sick.

Ethan 49:07

Yeah.

Sahm 49:09

Yeah, I was seven. No, I was six. March. I was six. Yeah. It's close. Is that tomorrow? It's tomorrow. Dude, that's sick. Oh, that's awesome, actually. Twenty-two years ago, almost to the date. Wow. That's pretty cool. Pretty cool. Yeah. I was six. And then then that year I turned seven. The storm. And then the storm.

Ace 49:47

What storm?

Sahm 49:49

the one the one the one that one rise again song is about.

Ace 49:53

No, stop singing songs.

Sahm 49:58

They can't copyright that. Yes, they can.

Ace 50:00

They can't. Ethan? Yeah.

Sahm 50:05

I promise you they can't.

Ace 50:08

there's not much other news this week. The only real other thing is apparently attendance in LEGO Land has dropped. This is the this is the sources I'm getting. It's dropped six percent, and they're worried. Are we going to LEGO Land this year? No.

Sahm 50:27

Why not? Because because we're gonna be in Florida, I think.

Ace 50:29

You're a fake fan.

Sahm 50:31

I'm I'm I'm leaning away from Lego, anyways.

Ace 50:40

Ethan was late again to record this. You heard me, bitch.

Sahm 50:48

But yeah, if we gotta go to Florida, then I'd rather just do a different Florida park.

Ace 50:53

Well, it's gonna be a while till we do the Tampa bush gardens because from what I'm hearing and seeing online, a lot of stuff's down. A lot of stuff ain't working.

Sahm 51:03

Is Irangazi working?

Ace 51:05

That's like the one that's not working. That's the one people are going to and finding out's clothes and freaking out.

Sahm 51:12

Yeah, because I literally would only go to that park for ironguazi. Oh my god. Yeah, there's no there's no standout ride there.

Ace 51:23

What other rides are there?

Sahm 51:26

There's a serpent ride. There's a snake like ride, I don't know what's actually called. Cheetah Hunt, I think, is also there. I could be wrong. But that's just because of the show. Like, I don't know any other rides.

Ace 51:39

Well, this is why we're gonna do the Williamsburg one first.

Sahm 51:43

Yeah, that's Pantheon, Griffin.

Ace 51:46

That'll probably have to be for our Virginia trip, though.

Sahm 51:50

It will be our first Virginia trip. Like, we'll do King's Dominion first and then we'll do first. Yes.

Ace 52:00

I I don't I don't think Ethan's ready for a Pantheon, dude. Pantheon? I don't know. I think I I think he might need some time.

Sahm 52:07

How tall is how tall is Dominator?

Ace 52:09

I'm just worried about him.

Sahm 52:10

How tall is Dominator?

Ace 52:13

Dominator?

Sahm 52:14

Yeah, how tall is that one? Oh, it's not a hyper, is it? Or is it or is it like 150 feet or where's Dominator? What's up? Where's Dominator? It's at the front of the park. It's like the first one you see when you walk in. It's the yellow one that looks like Hulk. I just call it yellow Hulk because it has like almost it has a very similar like layout. I think it has the I think it has that like similar like element too. I don't know what the element is called.

Ace 52:43

Oh, Dominator, that's that's that's like on the other side of Pantheon, right?

Sahm 52:49

Yeah, yeah.

Ace 52:50

Okay, I like that. I like that one.

Sahm 52:52

Yeah, Pantheon is towards the back of the park.

Ace 52:55

I don't think Dominator is 200 feet though.

Sahm 52:57

I'm looking. I'm trying to I'm trying to find it right now.

Ace 53:02

161.

Sahm 53:04

Yeah, I didn't think it I didn't think it was. It's a nice BM though. It is a very nice BM. But it's pretty much Hulk, man.

Ace 53:12

It's like I remember feeling that way when I wrote it.

Sahm 53:15

Yeah, because it has like the big loopahulk in five. I remember feeling that way when I wrote it. This section, this album is really on Hulk.

Ace 53:22

That's also on the Medusa at Great Adventure.

Sahm 53:25

Oh, that's cool.

Ace 53:26

I think it's called the Medusa.

Sahm 53:29

There's a couple BMs that are kind of like that. There's something wrong here. I don't think that's Dominator. Yeah. Ethan, look, Ethan, look at this one. This is this is 200 feet. This is 200 feet. Would you get on that? That's 200 feet. It's only 200 feet.

Ace 53:47

That's 300. Oh. He wouldn't get on it. Dude, you gotta understand. Look, I'm sorry. Even when you see the 200 footers, you go to King's Dominion, dude, and you see that thing, and you're like, oh mama, look, I think he's huge.

Sahm 54:05

Yeah.

Ace 54:08

And I wrote it at night.

Sahm 54:11

And I wrote it at night. What a good ride. Don't get him started, please.

Ace 54:22

I'll get him started. We're on the last ten minutes. This is when Ethan comes out. Come on. Come on. Come come say something to the audience. You know the audience wants to hear some you.

Sahm 54:33

Hey!

Ace 54:36

What do you put a flag there? What do you put a flag for? If you're not gonna do it, it's gotta be over then. We're probably gonna be uploading some stuff soon. Brian April, May-ish. May's probably gonna be a good time when we can actually start hitting the parks. You know, everything will be open.

Sahm 55:03

It's gonna be okay. Dude, you're killing me. Dude, you're killing me.

Ace 55:11

How? I don't know. Alright then.

Sahm 55:19

But yeah, we're aiming we're aiming to get some trips to get some trips under the belt. We're looking at May. So we should have content out probably by I would say June, July, probably. Don't know for sure yet.

Ace 55:36

Maybe I'll drop my universal video.

Sahm 55:40

Yeah, you've been s you've been sitting on that one for a bit now.

Ace 55:43

I might not drop it.

Sahm 55:47

You spent a lot of time and effort to do that.

Ace 55:49

I know, but like I I I I don't I don't know. It's a lot of work to edit the videos.

Sahm 55:59

Yeah.

Ace 56:00

I am almost done it though. We'll probably have it within a month or two. I just gotta find the time to balance sitting down and editing it. I I don't have any excuses, I've just been working.

Sahm 56:14

Yeah. I understand.

Ace 56:18

Have you made the channel yet?

Sahm 56:23

No. I know I was doing that yet.

Ace 56:27

season zero go crazy.

Sahm 56:30

Yeah.

Ace 56:34

I think I'm good with wrapping up for the rest of this.

Sahm 56:37

Yeah.

Ace 56:38

Josh doesn't got anything else to talk about. I'm sorry, guys.

Sahm 56:42

I don't. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it to irritate, you know.

Ace 56:53

Well stop. You're actually irritating me.

Sahm 56:56

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. You can't say that. Oh, come on. What the heck is what the how is that? Oh, alright, I'll mess with that in a sec. but yeah, that's pretty much gonna wrap it up for this week. we'll catch you guys on the flip side, and you know, you guys will actually like learn stuff this time, and we'll actually be like a lesson, you know. Alright, Lap Bar lessons.

Ace 57:21

We love you guys. Thank you for listening. Yep. Sorry for the boring episode.

Sahm 57:25

Yeah.
