Speaker 1

All right, let's get it going right here, right now. This is Eyes up Here, and you're listening to a brand new Eyes up Here exclusively on our Patreon channel at simulcast later in the week on the Creative Control Podcasting Network. If you didn't know by now, my name is Chad and every single week I'm joined here by the returning Disney fanatics. Felt like you were there for like six months, but you're now back where you need to be, in the chair behind the microphone. Welcome back,

Queen of Extreme France. I feel like I haven't seen you for like a year. Well it's only been a few days technically, in the run of shows in the real world, I haven't seen you in like two three weeks. It's been a while. It's been a while, and I got a funny story. I'll tell you later on about it. I should have told you this before we started. You're gonna forget No, I'm gonna write it down. I have to tell you this. You're gonna laugh. Uh secret. This

is inside baseball stuff here. I'm sorry to say that says we're getting going when you do this. But it's been a while. It's been about three weeks and we're recording on Sunday, which we've never done. Sunday. We recorded Saturday. We recorded Friday. So you're technically getting the freshest episode ever because this post tomorrow on the Patreon feed. Oh wow, Yeah, that's really quick. Yeah, it's been you know it. I guess it's been a long two weeks. But it went

by like that for me. Yeah, it went by so super quick. Should I just begin at the beginning? Yeah, I mean, so we recorded here together. We recorded on Thursday. Yeah, your birthday was Friday, yes, nineteenth, and then you left Sunday, Sunday, yes, twenty first. Yeah. So yeah, so we we left. We flew down there from the old snowy uh northeast and landed there and it was I believe it was like almost eighty degrees or something. It was very hot, very hot.

We got there late one Sunday and evening really didn't do much at all. We just went and we checked into our hotel. Now, this is the first year we stayed off property. Because you've met my husband. He's a very large man, not large meaning overweight, tall, big dune. He wanted more room and you know, the Disney hotels are very small. They're made for cartoon characters. They pretty much are and children and dwarfs, the seventh Dwarfs. So we looked into the good neighbor hotels. I think I

had mentioned that before. We found one called Florida's not good. The room was beautiful, okay, we had it looked like it looked like a little apartment. Right. It had two bedrooms, two bathrooms, full kitchen, full dining room, full living room, a balcony. Really pretty, really pretty nice setup. The thing that they had going on that they didn't tell us. Number one, you only got maid service if you requested it because of COVID. Right, yeah, you have to put

the little thing on the door. Right, it was no thing on the door. There was not to tell them. You have to go and physically say to the front desk or call I guess, hey, we we need maid service. And then they say, well what do you need? Well, I need you know, and you tell them what you need. Well, we didn't know that. So a couple of days go by and I'm just like, where is the maid Because we would leave, you know, to go to the park. We'd come back, my bed would still not be made.

The tails are still where's my meed? Oh, like, come on, I paid two weeks. I paid for a maid. So we finally figure it out when the maid finally comes to the room. Now you figure they're going to clean the bathroom, right, they're going to give you new towels, the dishes. I kept up with the dishes. We had a dishwasher. I would run the dishwasher. I would do them my hand put them away. I didn't expect the maid to do our dishes for us, obviously, but I

did expect clean tails. The bed maid maybe wipe down the sinks and the bathtub. Oh no, no, sorry, for four people, I think they left like two to three towels, one wash cloth, two handtails. Now we have two bathrooms, right, two bathrooms between the two between between the setup, there's two bathrooms. There's a master bathroom, right, and there's the you know, the guest bathroom, whatever you want to call it. No, there's hardly any towels. There's four people. You leave two

or three towels. You know, I use a tail for my hair. Sometimes I use one for my boty. Now I couldn't do that. I'm sparingly using the same half. So I said to my husband like, go say something housekeeping out of the door. I opened the door. There's a big trash back twenty there. You go. Okay, it's like Santa's sack, you know. I put it out of my shoulder and come back in. I didn't really appreciate the way they cleaned that. You know, you have your

dirty cups in the bathroom. The kids would use it to brush their teeth, rinse their mouth out. They stick their toothbrush in there. Well there, I can tell they're dirty because the toothpaste is still on the bottom of the cup. So what I started doing was I was leaving the cup in the front of the sink because I wanted her to switch it. They never switched them out. It was just I think it was just being lazy to me. I didn't like the service that we got.

Another example, they had a gorgeous outside pool area and we got to do that two times. We had two off days. We went to the pool. You would never know COVID existed at this pool. People. Now, we stayed away from everyone. We stayed just me and my husband here and the kids. You know, we didn't go near anybody. The hot tub people were like arm in arm the blood lights. Yeah, all strangers. You know, there was like twenty people in a circle. I said, do they not know?

Like what is going on? No one wears a mask, obviously, not that mask. I mean, who knows a mask work. I don't know. No one was wearing a mask. You know, you're in the pool, you're swimming chlorine supposed to kill it. Okay, but you're above in this hot tub. But everybody's just leaning back, drinking their brews and just having a grand all of time. What's that? I said, they're tubbing? Yeah, you would never know there was like a pandemic going on.

So I kind of just we kind of stayed away from people and sat in our own little section by ourselves. We were able to do. But it was a gorgeous pool area, but they had little things for towels, so when you walk in, you're supposed to go get your towel. Well, guess what, it was empty there. So I, you know, the kids went into the pool that stayed in their own section, and I figured in a couple of hours, the man's got to come and bring some tis no test.

People were walking and say, hey, do you know where the tails are? I go yeah, and then empty bin over there they were supposed to make. We had to go to the front desk. We complained, they give us two tails. Guy never came to put t. I mean, you got all these people, You're not going to keep up on your towels. And I just didn't like the service. And if you work for the Floridays, I'm sorry. I just I wasn't happy. I wasn't happy. I didn't like

we ubered it every day. I like having the buses failable for us like it just it lost some of the magic. Now you're on property. You know that there was no food court, there was no like Disney Disney shops where you can go and see Disney merchandise. It just it was different, you know, so that I was like a nice hotel, but I don't think i'd stay there again. Like I said, we ubered it every day.

That was quick they were. They were at our hotel within five minutes or less because they must linger around and just waiting for people to call them. Disney is very adamant about your mask, need to have the mask on. There was a new rule put into place when we were actually there that said, you know, if you're if you're standing sitting, uh not not physically eating. You need to have your mask on because we would sit at you know, go in a restaurant, sit down, take the

mask off. Now they want you to leave it on till you order and the food comes in front of you, then you can take your mask off. So if you get your drink and your drink is now physically in front of you, now you can you can do you have to go drink masks. Okay, we didn't do that, and nobody told us to, so we just kept them off because everybody else you got to drink. Yeah, everybody else had them off. Now, like Epcot is big with booze, right,

and you can walk. You can't walk around and drink anymore. You have to be idle and you have to drink your drink, so you have to be like at a table or standing. Yeah, it was it was a completely I gotta tell that one to Liz because that's the whole point of her wanting to go too. You can't do it anymore. He just wants to drink around the damn world. No, you just can't do that. You have to stay. You can carry it, but you can't drink it. Mommy,

Mommy's getting washed at one spot, Yeah, exactly. We actually went to two really cool restaurants there. We did in Epcot. We did the Beer Garden in Germany, which was so much fun. They had like a live German band. We got to see them and you hold your steins up and you're singing along and dancing, and that was a lot of fun. And then we went to Vietnapoli in Epcot of Italy Pavilion and that was just all Italian food, which was absolutely delicious. But the rest of the time

I ate like crap. And I gained two and a half pounds and I walked over one hundred miles. Wow, that's the thing. I walked so much and I still gained weight when I came home. Well maybe it would have gained five pounds, but the one hundred miles knocked it down to two and a half. I don't know, but I was really pissed off when I got on that scale. Not gonna lie trying to think, Oh, so okay,

park pacity about walking around wasn't too difficult. Well, there was space to walk, felt comfortable, there's all you know, the stickers on the floor six feet most people followed the rules. Sometimes you turn around the persons on your shoulder when you're in line, you know, And some people were literally saying can you back up please? You know, you're too close or whatever. But lines were long. Lines were very, very long for certain rides. So certain rides

went over an hour. Some were two hours because there was no fast pass system in place. So similar to what you would see as a normal weight. If you were there, you know, in the morning or something, or no you had fast passes, people would be in the fast line, those lines would be shorter, right, no what I'm saying, But in terms of the weight, if you're not having a fast pass, it's kind of somewhat normal. No, no, okay,

all right, not normal. I've been looking at times. I've been looking at the app so and trying to gauge. You know. Yes, the wait times the capacity was lower, but wait times were longer because there were no fast passes in place. If they had fast passes and they were at thirty five percent, the wait times would have came down, it would it wouldn't have been such long lines like Pandora was impossible to get into. Right. The weights were like one to two hours on Pandora. You

couldn't do it now. We went to Hollywood Studios twice. Rise of the Resistance that was my goal. Right first day. Woke up early, couldn't get on. It's seven o'clock. We're at the or on the app. We're trying to push the button. Nothing. Second time we went, I pushed the button, it says, are these the people in your party? I said yes, and I pushed the button and it said you were in boarding group thirty eight. So I got it. Wow. I ran seven o'clock in the morning. I ran through

the apartment screaming at the top of my head. I was super duper excited. So we got to ride Rise of the Resistance. We got to ride Smuggler's Run, which is a long way too. I got to go on that. We got to go on Mickey and Minnie probably five times. Oh really wow. Yeah, that was a great ride. That's very that's that's the only one we want to go on.

Very cute ride for the kids. And what's great about that ride is because of the track list system, you can have a different experience every time you get on if you get in a different numbered par right, So we got on it it had to be five times we rode it and it was different. It was a beautiful, beautiful, colorful ride. That's awesome. Frozen in the FCOP pavilion. Uh, you know, we ride that all the time. There is

a little it's a very rare thing that happens. So if you get stuck in front of Elsa, have you been you have been on this I going to get to it. That's another one of the goals. There's a scene where the door's open and it's Elsa and she's you know, on the balcony and she's singing let it Go. It's beautiful. I mean, the whole ride is just beautifully done.

Your boat goes all the way right in front of her, and me and my daughter were in the front row, so we were right in front of her and she sings and after she sings the passes in the past, you're supposed to go backwards down a hill. Well we didn't move. I felt the boat lock and I said, we're stuck. We're stuck. So we got very excited. So she sang it it a second time. She said, the pass is in the past. We didn't go backwards. The

music keeps going, but she doesn't sing anymore. And the first thing she does is she looks around and she looks directly at your boat and she goes, oh, waves at you. That's freaky. She waves at you. The second thing she did was, oh, that's funny. What am I gonna do? Shrugs her shoulders like you're stuck, there's nothing to do. We pop. I popped like a fangirl. We were screaming because it's so rare to see this happen, and it happened, and then finally the boat unlocked and

we went backwards. But I mean, we were so happy. We want to get stuck on our eye because we want to do the in show exit. Everybody wants to do that. That's what Maddie keeps saying. She goes, that's all I want is a glitch or of the flop or whatever they do. Yeah, well we were able to get that with the Frozen Ride. I mean, I've heard about it, never really solid. I've heard her she waves and got to see it with my own two eyes, so I was super excited about that. But yeah, it

was super hot. One day was actually eighty seven degrees. Yeah, it was very very warm. The mask was terrible to wear. I'm not going to sugarcoat it made it made you feel like a hundred degrees just because you're breathing. You know, it's your hot breath is just coming right back at you with this mask on. So that was really difficult to wear. But we wore them because you know, you

had to. But I told my husband, I was so glad you went because we had such a great time despite all the rules and regulations, you know what I mean. So they're doing their best to keep people safe. They would shut the rides down to clean them, so you would have to wait like an extra ten minutes because they were cleaning the boats or cleaning the seats or whatever. Some places were closed, some shows were not available. The

Frozen one is available in Hollywood Studios. Your little girls, if you're going to Hollywood Studios, you're able to see the Frozen show, which was really really cute. They changed it a little bit, different jokes. Overall, I have to honestly say, it was a really good experience. I'm glad you made the trip. I didn't want to leave, didn't want to come home. But like I said, it was long and it was short. In the same the same sentence.

It's it's hard to explain, like it went by like this, But every day I felt like I was walking in the desert for turn. It's really hot. So I'm imagining when you're down there, it's going to be super duper hot. Oh god, I hope not. Now. When we went two years ago at the same time, there was no humidity. It was beautiful. It was easy. So that when I said, I think you said that the first day whenever I did all right, I don't know if you said it to me directly or on Twitter, and you said it's

ungodly hot. It was the first thing I turned to Liz, I go, she said it's hot, and Liz is like, oh god, really hot. Yeah. We got rain once and by the time we put the ponchos on everybody, it stopped, so we took the ponchos off. But every day was beautiful down there, you know, despite the heat. It's just it's gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous down there, and we want to move like tomorrow. It's it's very hard to see it.

I mean, I'm watching the spring training baseball games going on in Port Saint Lucy, Florida right now, and all their b roll is like sandy beaches and nice wavy shores and you're like, oh, yeah, oh that looks terrible, right, Yeah, No, it's it's lovely down there. And I mean we went on Zillow and we were looking around at houses and everything, like we're we're ready to go. If we could move tomorrow, we'd get out of here and move tomorrow. That's how

much we would love to go down. And it felt good, like as hot as it was, like my body felt better. The heat helped my bones, and you know, I didn't feel so fatigue. I was tired from walking, but I had pep in my step, you know what I mean. It's just a different vibe. Man. Disney Springs is the best place ever in the world. The food, the entertainment, the just the people. Like everybody was so nice and welcoming and how hopeful. I just love it. I just

love it. Why they say the magic, right, It's all about the freaking magic. Yeah. I mean, I'm about three weeks away now at this point. Yeah, and you know, we're eagerly anticipating. We're watching movies, we're watching videos, we're checking everything out. Watch some of your streams, we're getting there. We're antsy. So I tried to work from there. I tried to do twitch, Yes you did, but I was having such a hard time because I would go from Wi Fi to data and back to Wi Fi. It

was cutting out. It would stop, I'd have to restart. I took my phone on Big Thunder, which is a roller coaster for those of you who don't know. I don't know what I was thinking because I got out twice and I had to keep catching it with my hand. All the phone was literally falling out of your hands. I had it on a gimbal and I had the

gimbal stick between my legs. I had one hand holding on because I'm scared of roller coasters, but I go on the little ones anyway, and I had one hand on the gimbal and I told everybody, look, I'm going to put you guys on my lap. You'll be able to see. Like I tried to point it upwards so they can see where we were going, but it kept popping out of gimbal and then I would have to catch the phone. And you know, you're going down a hill or you turning a corner and you're trying to

catch your fat. It was very difficult. I don't know how these people stream like they do or have better service than me. But I was in and out the whole time, so I did my best. But yeah, I streamed for four different days down there. Now, let me ask you this. So, so now with Mickey's Runaway Train, that's the one that I'm the most interested in and the girls are the most interested in, because you know, we're still in big time Mickey Mini phase. Is the

weight or the registering like Star Wars anymore? Is it because this is thirty five percent? Is it easier to get on this one? Now? The weight for that ride was usually about fifty minutes. We could do that. Yeah, it was about fifty minutes. And what they need you do was you start it. They always have a person with the sign that says, uh, you know, line ends here, so you always have to look for that sign in

the air. You got the stick or whatever. But they had us like if if the Chinese theater was here, you started, like I don't know, you started in front of it. There's a big circle thing. You're on the other side, but you have to walk through mazes. They have you going around and around and around and you're you're technically walking in circles to get up to the Chinese theater. So okay, there, I am h well lunch. Okay,

this was at Pinocchio's, uh, Pinocchio's village hall halls. This is a I mean, this is a two hour stream that you did. People wanted to see me go on stuff, you know. I, uh, there your queen mask, right. Yeah. I forget wearing makeup half the time because it was just melting off. I wore. I tried to wear makeup once and then I said screw it, Hey, you can do your you can do your eyes like crazy and then have nothing underneath the mask, you know. Yeah, but it was just it was just too hot. You know,

it was really hot. I even and this day I had one of those turtles underneath the mask, and that made me sweat even more because it was plastic, you know. So I but yeah, they came, they watched the streams. They liked it, and they told me what rides they wanted to go on. So I tried to get on certain rides for them and stuff, which I didn't mind doing. It was fun, but it was it was really really hot out, so yeah, I won't have the date in front of me, but spoiler alert, this will be on

the extras this week if anybody missed it. This this full stream is like I said, it's an hour and fifty minute stream. But you know, you take tours, you're talking, you're answering people. It's a questions a lot. Yeah, it's interesting. This is probably not going to rate them because I didn't see all of them, but for grabbing this one, this is a good one. I think people. I did my best, you know, and when it cut out, it cut out. I had no control over Disney cutting the

Wi Fi off. I was frantically trying to switch back and forth and just making things work. But I was just showing people certain things. And now this is the line I want to say. Maybe I don't know if that's for Jungle Cruise. I can't remember. I think that's Jungle Cruise. This could be Jungle Cruise because that's a Laddin right there. Yeah, that's Jungle Cruise. So we were getting in line. This is Animal Kingdom, No, this is Magic Kingdom. This is Magic Kingdom. See, we got to

explore more, and we did it. There's a lot of stuff we missed when we went two years ago, because again, we're going in a smaller amount of time, and Brie was so little at the time she couldn't really go on or want to go on much. So we have so much territory to cover. Yeah, oh my gosh, be there at the doors open, knocking on the door like, okay, we can come in now. So are you doing? How many days are you? There? Were there Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,

and Thursday. Monday's Epcot, Tuesday's Magic Kingdom, Wednesday is Hollywood Studios, Thursday is Disney Springs. Oh so you're skipping Animal Kingdom. We're not doing Animal Kingdom this time, maybe the next. I think that's a good move because we were literally an Animal Kingdom for like three and a half hours and we left. Yeah, not much to do there at all. Now. Yeah, no, it's not I remember going when it first opened. Didn't

really like it. I know the kids would enjoy the animals and stuff, but I'm glad we're not going to it this time. But yeah, so we're accelerated a little bit. And even the first day on Monday Epcot, I know Epcot's hours are a little different. I think it opens at eleven it does. That was disappointing to me. It opened at eleven and it closed. I believe it's seven or eight. Yeah, and it is done there well. Epcot's super busy as well because it's the Flower and Garden Festival.

Oh okay, interesting. So you have people there to look at topiaries, which are gorgeous, but you also have people there for the foods because they have the different food samples. So I call them samples because they're not full full plates of food. I mean, you're paying seven eight dollars and you're getting like a slider with a little bit of a jelly on top or whatever they're serving. But it's it's nice to be able to sample different foods and wines and drinks and stuff like that. You just

can't walk around when you're drinking or eating. You have to sit down and you know, eat your stuff. But the topiaries were gorgeous, and I took a lot of pictures and I showed a lot on on Twitch as well. I was busy, especially we were there for the first day, so it was it was really busy. Gotta love me some topiaries. I like the topiaries because they're characters made out of plants. It's interesting to me, you know. I don't know. I just tried to take everything in, especially

with no fast passes, we're always rushing. Yeah, we got to get here. We got to get there, and I said, let's just walk look around. I mean, my husband still wanted to get from point A to point B pretty quickly, and I'm you know, I got to We went down to the France Pavilion because I wanted to see the Ratituy area. Now the ride's still not open, but it's gorgeous. The way they fixed that France pavilion, it is just so beautiful. It's a lot to look at. Back there,

I was pissed the People Move still not open. It's one of my favorite rides in the world. So mad walked by it. They were testing it when we walked by the first time, so I got really excited. And then they're like, no, it won't be open till April. I was like, still that, So that's funny you say that. So right as you were leaving, we started watching all our videos on and look at this stuff. Maddie comes

to me. She says, oh my gosh, the People Mover opens March twenty seventh, Right, so I'm like, Wow, we're supposed to be there the twenty nine, that's what timing. That's great. Like a day later, she goes, oh no, they moved it back to like April seventh. So the week after we're gone. I mean they were testing it as we saw the men you know, sitting in it and they were dry, and so we got hopeful. We were like, oh well, and then they were like, oh no,

it's it's April. And that's like my favorite ride because it's a chance to just sit back and relax and you got the breeze on you and you're looking over the whole Kingdom and you get to see the castle and yeah, I didn't get to do it this year. Now, how about the characters? So when you okay, So we made Rope Drop once or twice. We really never do Rope Drop because the hours were always so extended, but because they're shorter, we went out earlier in the morning

and we were actually there for opening. Like at Magic Kingdom, when you walk in where the train station is, they stand at the top. So there was one day when it was like Mickey Minnie, Goofy Donald Daisy. Then one day they had like the princesses. They just wave at you. You can try and take selfies, but they're all the way up here, and then you're all the way down there. They have a lot of cavalcades, which are very small parades. So they had one was Pooh was at the top,

Mary Poppins and Aladdin were on the back. Tigger was walking. I can't remember who was at the front of that. And then they have the princesses in the trolley car and they go by and they wave. Mickey and Minnie were in an old timey car in Hollywood Studios and they you know, they drive by with Pluto and Goofy walking in the front. The one day we saw Captain Jack Sparrow right across from Pirate, which is one of our favorite rides. The kids went ballistic, so I was like, okay,

let's see what we can do. He's on a stage that's completely set up as you know, the Pirates of the Caribbean thing. They have dots, so you have to stand on a dot, turn around and he is about twelve feet behind you going like this, you know, doing his poses, and then you stand off of the stage and get your selfie. So that's how my kids took a picture with Captain Jack, but it was Yeah, it wasn't fun. And then like Country Bear Jamboree, one of the bears was on the second level and he was

just waving looking down. We didn't see we didn't get to see any Charactersoo. No, but I will tell you what happened to me. Oh so pissed off. I could die of embarrass So we were going on carousela progress, which is another one of our favorites because it's just relaxing. And now they have it set up with like there's ropes, rural ropes, and you have to walk on the side instead of going up the ramp. They made us walk

to the side and then line up. There's only one guy standing in this line with his wife or girlfriend whatever it was. Hubbs took the kids and okay, it was maybe fifteen twenty feet away. I didn't feel like walking around the whole all roping. I had flip flops on, so I put my foot up over the first rope and I clear it. I go to put my foot up over the you know, to get over the rope. My flip flop gets caught on the rope and I fall I fell to my knees hard that he thought

I broke my kneecap. It was like a bam and I land and I land on the palms of my hands and my knees, so like doggy style, that's how I landed. Hard. Glasses go flying, mask goes flying. I don't even know my phone, I think flew out of my hand. Guy in front of me says, oh my god, he runs over. I go, I go. I'm fine to the face like, don't touch me. I looked down at my knee all red. My pants didn't rip, but it was. I had red pants on, but I could see the

blood underneath my pants. So I have two big scabs on my knee. I can't take you anywhere when I tell you moreified, I was so by this time, there was like, I don't know, five families behind us, so they all saw me fall. The guy in front of me saw me fall. I'm fuming, I'm shaking, I'm embarrassed. I just went in there and I sat in the dark lake this the whole time, with a bloody knee, pissed off, said, I fell at Magic Kingdom. Then we saw another lady fall. Well, I didn't see her fall.

I just looked over and she was just laying there in the middle of the road, and you were laughing at that one. I didn't laugh. I just say did I Did she just fall or did she think? I don't know what happened because my daughter just kept eating her launch like she could care less. She couldn't care less rather, but yeah, it was people were falling left and right, me included. I saw somebody fall, including you. They'd have to get the paramedics for me because I'd

pass out from laughing so hard. It wasn't funny. It hurt. And then so I tweeted it, and then I get a lovely text message from Shane Douglass that says, ooh saw your video. It went viral and I go, what are you talking about? He goes, oh, you know when you fell at the Magic it was like it did not shut up. So that was pretty embarrassing. But like I said, overall it was it was such a good trip. I loved it. You've walked through ropes how many times in your life? I think you would think that you

know how to clear it. At this point, I've jumped over guardrails, like literally jumped over guardrails, and I could not clear a rope that had a dip in it. Dip, yeah, it's got the dick too. Yeah, good point. Yeah I had a goodness. I swear my flip flop got caught. And it just was like and then you do like, oh shit as you're going down, like I literally stopped in mid air, was like oh shit, I lay. Yeah, it froze around you the whole entire It was like

the Matrix three sixty shot around you. I was so embarrassed. I didn't think if anything else, I mean, I don't think anything else happened. We got on every ride we wanted to get on. Rise was amazing. It was amazing. I hope you guys can manage to do it. I'm sure it'll be on the docket. Well, you need to be up at six fifty five with your phone in your hand, your finger ready to push that button. Because the first day I could not do it. It wouldn't let me in, and then the second day I got it.

So perseverance, Yeah, well you can try two times. That's a two times tis the day you do seven and one, So keep those in mind. Seven o'clock am, and then you try at one pm, okay, and then if you couldn't get it, you have to try, you know, your sol as we say, if you only have one day there. Luckily we had two and we got it on the second day. So yeah, Florida. You know, they're trying to basically go back to normal as much as they can throughout the state that Disney is its own entity and

nothing's going to be going back to normal there. Yeah, if you own your business, you can decide if you want them to wear a mask or not. And Disney said you have to wear a mask. But the hotel chains are like, yo, go party, do what you want, just like where am i? I'm in the Twilight Zone? You know. So what do you think you think Disney is Let's just say for argument's sake, and this is not a political uh you know, Gauge, I'm not asking you for your thoughts on viruses and this and that.

You know. Let's just like they're saying, maybe you know, into twenty twenty two with the masks, this and that. Do you think Disney extends it and keeps it long just because they're so concerned about how many people come through there in a daily basis. Yeah, you know. I the word when we were down there is they were extending it to the end of the year. Okay, that's what I heard. I don't know if it's going to

go into twenty twenty two. I know fourteen states have you know, lifted the mask band, and Florida does have a Republican in office. All fourteen states have a Republican governor. And it's just don't I don't know how Disney sees things, but I guess as long as you let the company decide, it's up to Disney what they want to do. I mean, they're they're trying to keep people safe there. Oh yeah, you can't deny that. I mean, that's what it is. I hope it doesn't get to you know, you have

to show a vaccine card, you know. I hope it doesn't get to that level of uh, you know, entrance get a vaccine card when you get the vaccine. Yeah, that's how they basically sticky. Well you might see the sticker and the idiots that were putting their card with their name and information on the online Yeah. The the you know, the Nigerian scammers are sitting there being like okay, more cards please, but yeah, I mean, my brother just

got it. He got the first dose and you know, he got his little sticker which he had to you know, I believe he showed and he goes, oh, it didn't hurt. Yeah, everybody's saying it hurts. I was like, idiots, the SHOT's not gonna hurt. It's gonna be afterwards. Although they put people, we know somebody who did get it, and she they put on a monitoring station. You know, I guess that's where you go and felt little loosey, went into the bathroom and passed out. Well, yeah, you woke up to

people kicking in the door. Are you Are you getting it? Technically, I would be on the last chain of command of people who would be getting it in my state, and they can keep me on the last chain of command because I mean I got no interest. Yeah me too, me too. But I'm thinking it'll go away by the time i'm eligible. Yeah, yeah, exactly right. Now, that's when you can start getting it at target. I'm like, you know, any day of the week that maybe you know, I'll

start heading over. But I'm the absolute last tier eligible. I would think based off what I do for a living, so we're not essential right now what we're doing. We're here in the world. Let me tell you something we that day, last day we recorded, I mean we recorded a lot. It was three plus hours of recording and it spanned uh seven show was out of eight because we used the Twitch chat with you and Shane one day. But I mean, you know, we filmed it out of order, so I mean I had to be on top and

precise about every show. And man, it like we covered so much ground in that one day. It was it was fascinating to see, you know, how we could really get that much done. I was very impressed by our body of work. Really. Yeah, it was a lot. Hey, when you lay a fire under my ass, I can go and it keeps one. And it just that it didn't seem like it was all filmed the one day. It was fresh. It was easy conversation, you know, it was just it was I thought it was very h

I thought it was very cool. But yeah, just so much has happened since then. I mean since you've been gone, Doctor SEUs has been canceled. Potato Yeah, there's no more mister potato head. I mean, Jesus, what else can we still call people? Our sister and brother. Did they change that? Did that go through? Mister Coffee's next? Don't don't your count do what you want to do. People, you you live your life the way you want to live it. Don't let anybody judge you. That's all I can say.

I'm sick of arguing with with people. And uh, you know, family members are Just do what you want to do and let me do what I want to do. Let me be me, do my own thing. Like you said you did at the pool, just stick with your little tribe. That's what we did. I didn't go near anyone. I stayed you know, I stayed away and uh, the kids stayed in their own little section and we feel great. Yeah I don't. I don't know. I'm not And and again I'm not making the situation. Don't come at me

or don't come for me. Yeah, catch me outside. How about that. I'm not downgrading this at all. I know it's a serious thing, but it's like I tell you, when when we were at the hotel, it wasn't it didn't even exist. It wasn't even a thing like really, and uh it was funny too because we we got on the elevator at one point there was a person without a mask on because you didn't have to wear them.

We wore ours to the pool. From the pool and my son freaked out a person without a mask, so they went in their pocket and they put and I said, you don't have to certain, no, no, no, it's a it's okay. And but my kids they're so fearful now when they see people, especially with they freak out, and I'm just trying to explain to them, like it's okay, you know, you don't have to freak out. The guy wasn't sitting on top of us coughing or blowing his most like we were distant and it was all good.

But these kids, they're they're paranoid and that's time. Yeah, yeah, it's a it's a sad world we live in. When returned five on the same day as you, the night February, and she now has to wear it to daycare, and she was not a big fan of when she had

to wear it. When we went to Tennessee over the summer, and Disney Store and BUILDE Bear were the only places that required her having to wear it even at four, and we bought like some Disney ones, so she got into it like that, and she's been pretty good about it, I'd say, hasn't made any complaints. But the other day told us that, you know, one girl's mask is as she called it, her mask is broke, and they had

to send her home because they had no extras. They sent the kid home, so she goes five year old goes her mask broke and she now has coronavirus. So she had to go home for the day because she wasn't wearing a mask. She thought she has coronavirus because they sent her home. School not have paper mask available. Well, you know, it's a private daycare, you know, I don't know,

I don't know. Get a box supposed to be you're supposed to pack the kids with I think three for the day, and there they change them out, like Britt has three and they's a dirty bag and a clean bag, and I guess this girl's broke and she didn't have any extras. And they were like boom, wow, Yeah, it's it's really really sad. We didn't see any fights over it. I did see a mother. Here's a family in front of us. We were an animal kingdom. We were getting

on a train. Uh. They have a gimmick where you get you get on a train and you go over to like an island or something where there's like you can explore the island and there's animals and people that show you different things about the animals and all this bs whatever. We were waiting to get on the train and the family in front of us all had the buttons on like my first trip to Disney, so I knew it was their first trip. And there's a little boy.

He looked like he was seven or eight years old, and he's sitting like this on the ground and the mother's over him like this, and she goes, I will never ever take you the Disney book again in your life, and I was just like, oh, what did he say? I don't think he just sat there with his arms folded. And then we got on the train and they were in the box car next to us, and when the mom sat down, the kid got on, looked at the mother and walked to the other side, and shit, man,

he wouldn't even sit to mother. And I was like, I wonder what they're fighting about, Like, I don't know what the kid did wrong, but I was like, it's a sin. He's got his first pin my first year and the aunt is last year because his mom threatened not to take them back. Oh man, what a what a dragon? What a what a dragon? That lady must be. It was so funny. That's cracking up. You know, people are pulling their kids. Tell us stop crying. It's it's inevitable,

you're gonna do that. But she was just full fourth like you ever came back to Disney word and that's when you should have fell right on them. No, I fell it magic Kingdom, not animal king Oh okay, sorry, sorry, hilarious. Well, speaking of animals and speaking of a dragon, I just called a woman a dragon.
