Well, so we did we not only went to 78 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,920 High school together then we 79 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,160 Also going to college together. Yeah, the reason why I went to temple is because of 80 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:52,760 Your mom and dad basically yeah because I ended up getting into Catholic University in DC 81 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:57,000 That's where I wanted to go and my dad was like that is a very expensive school 82 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,360 If you want to go there you're gonna have to take out loans pay them back and I was like 83 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:10,520 And he's like if you go to temple you like we can like take care of you and and it's in state 84 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:17,000 So it'll be you know less expensive but we can do that and your mom was like you should go to temple and your dad 85 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,880 Was working at temple and he was the one who got my application 86 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:27,160 To like be put on top of like a pile to be because I I entered the application process way way late 87 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:36,840 Yeah, no, and that's pretty much how my application got like submitted and I got in and I went to temple my freshman year 88 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:41,880 You wish it was your senior high school and then you came to temple the following year 89 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:46,120 So we and my mom and dad were the reason I they took me out of temple 90 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,560 Which was also pat. Yeah, which was the reason why carly left temple 91 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:58,200 As well. Yeah, I went to temple it would have been your sophomore year my freshman year and we had a rough 92 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:04,040 We had a rough go that's that's that's when our our friendship took like a rough turn and we 93 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:10,520 We you did not return for your sophomore year and we did not speak for a year 94 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:16,280 A year almost like about a year like it was less than a year, but we we just like didn't speak and then we 95 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,640 We started speaking but in the 96 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,200 midst of 97 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:27,400 Us not speaking that year is when you met and I met Andrew.

That's what we wanted. We wanted to act. We wanted to move to new york 106 00:08:55,320 --> 00:09:00,440 We went to new york multiple times together. You used to drive five times. Well, we saw rent 107 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:06,520 But five times that was our favorite show and that was always the dream. We were working actors 108 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:12,360 I ended up getting married having kids and pat went on to do Broadway 109 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,160 And I will never forget 110 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,440 Sitting in that theater on your first Broadway show and I just remember sitting there and like 111 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:27,160 Being like this is what we work so hard for and then you went on to do tours and Broadway and cruise ships and 112 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,840 Needless to say you've been traveling since you graduated college. Yeah 113 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:38,280 Thank you so much for getting to the topic of the podcast because it's been now almost 15 minutes 114 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:45,000 Of talking about the history of pan carly. There's so much more history. There's so much history of wrong guys 115 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,000 That's a musical theater reference for those out there that don't kind of hate you right now 116 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,640 So 117 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,640 You have been cruising 118 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:03,400 For how many years now? Hey cruising. I've been a cruiser. I've been crew for 119 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:13,720 Since 2009 so it has been 14 years and it will be 15 years next year when after I do my my next upcoming contract 120 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,400 Wait, really? Yeah 2009 was my first the first year I cruised 121 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,720 How long are the crews like how long is the contract because you were you come home back and forth? 122 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,760 Yeah contracts can be anywhere between six months in a year and so 123 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,800 like the last contract that I was on where where you guys came to cruise was a 124 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,760 pretty much an 11 month contract with rehearsals included 125 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,920 So you have like two months two months of rehearsals and like nine months on board 126 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:45,080 And that's exactly what my next contract will be. I will be in Miami 127 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,320 Rehearsing for two months and then I will be on the ship for about nine months. So like altogether 128 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,320 11 months. No 129 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,720 Yeah, that's so long. Yeah, but we're gonna go. I know that's true 130 00:10:55,800 --> 00:11:01,480 My shortest ship contract was five months one month one month rehearsal five months on board 131 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,440 So and that's short that was short. That's that is very short for cruise ships 132 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:11,800 So I've done six months altogether and then almost a year altogether. So they that's how much they vary 133 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:18,200 So you're pretty much and have been a nomad like you your routes are here in delco 134 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,800 Yes, but like you don't have a place 135 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,760 Other than when I moved to Florida for 136 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,160 During COVID 137 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,680 When I thought I was 138 00:11:28,680 --> 00:11:34,680 Done never gonna go back to the cruise industry. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Yeah, cuz COVID and the cruises was not a big deal 139 00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:37,480 Yeah, the cruises were shut down and I was living in Florida 140 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,160 And I was like I'm never going back on a cruise ship and they contacted me 141 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,960 I signed a one-year lease for my apartment in st. Petersburg, Florida on february 10th 142 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:50,520 And and a week later they contacted me and offered me a job 143 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,160 And I said yes and 144 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,000 Never looked back and then never looked back and now that's what you want to do, right? 145 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,440 We talked about this on the cruise. You want to be a cruise director eventually 146 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:08,280 Eventually, yeah, eventually that would be great. I would eventually maybe want to get into the casting side of 147 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:14,440 Like the industry as well. So but I want to still perform on ships for the next few years 148 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,440 Listen after going on a cruise 149 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,640 All these years he's been doing it. This was our first one 150 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,440 And the cruise life is the life for us. Yeah, I don't know why it took us that long 151 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,840 I've been doing it since 2009 152 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,720 Because your cruises sometimes are at like 10 days and that's a long time to go away 153 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:36,520 Well, and also that's you by the time you would have started to come on cruises 154 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,640 That's when you were you started having kids and you like had young 155 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,120 Yes, you know young kids. And so yeah, basically it's your 156 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,440 Always your fault. I should have known 157 00:12:45,560 --> 00:12:48,520 But yeah to kind of use the same word 158 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:53,880 Nomad life like you're living out of a bag essentially. Yeah, and we got to see 159 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,920 I saw through pictures Carly was 160 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,960 crew when we went on our cruise, but we got to see the 161 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:05,400 Living quarters that you're in and you do get your own room because Pat's always a star of the show 162 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,120 So he gets his own room, which is great 163 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:13,160 But how do you how do you prep for that because a year is a really long time to have a limited amount of 164 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:15,800 Stuff of your own 165 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:21,160 But also you need the essentials you need everything that you need and then what about the stuff that like you might need 166 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,320 Like do you pack that stuff? 167 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:24,600 so 168 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:31,240 Not only do I have years of experience on ships and packing for being away.

Yeah, I'm gonna need to wear a flowy shirt 203 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:29,480 So there's where the options come into play, but also, you know, don't do that.

Yes 207 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:48,520 That's like the the biggest the biggest issue for everyone because airports are so frustrating 208 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,160 And just flying in general is a frustrating process 209 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:56,600 I'm gonna side note this he grew up with his mom as a flight attendant and his dad worked at the airport 210 00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,360 Yes, so he's got some knowledge. Yeah on the travel 211 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:07,560 Every everything travel and flying because you used to fly for free, right? Yeah. Yeah. All right, pat. Give us your airport tips 212 00:17:08,360 --> 00:17:10,360 Pat's airport tips 213 00:17:10,360 --> 00:17:12,360 Q music 214 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,760 This is my first and most important tip 215 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,200 Put on your patience pants and set the bar low 216 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:28,600 Oh 217 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:29,960 my 218 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:35,320 Goodness, that is the best tip. I think anybody's ever brought put on your patience pants 219 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:41,000 And set the bar real low with the airport in general. Yes set the bar low assume 220 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,640 The airport is going to be on fire and 221 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:51,960 All of the all of the flight like there are no planes there like just assume all of the worst 222 00:17:52,360 --> 00:17:54,360 Yeah things because 223 00:17:55,160 --> 00:18:00,120 One of those things is going to be true. Hopefully not the fire part, but your plane is probably not going to be there 224 00:18:00,120 --> 00:18:05,080 It's probably going to be delayed. I mean right now the air travel is just a mess. So 225 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,880 Putting your mindset in that like something is going to go wrong 226 00:18:10,120 --> 00:18:13,080 Will then when you get there and if the security line 227 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:18,200 Is short you're not in you're in it for maybe 10 minutes and you get through and your flight is on time 228 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,920 Or maybe just like 10 minutes late then you're you're we're gonna go. Yeah prep for anything 229 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:31,160 My second tip is have everything organized in your carry-on properly so you can easily remove all of your 230 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:33,080 technical 231 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:37,480 Hardware and all your liquids just like in your in your carry-on just have everything 232 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:43,320 Right away. We'll see Andrew's really organized with that stuff and I chucked things in my bag last minute 233 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,000 And then I get on the plane and I'm looking for my air pods 234 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,920 I'm like what the heck are they like because I had just taken them out thrown them back in 235 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,600 I know it's so annoying. Yeah, if you have everything organized like that 236 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:59,640 Then it makes it it makes it just makes it so much better especially when you especially when you get back on the 237 00:18:59,960 --> 00:19:03,320 On the plane and especially when you have kids and you are like, okay 238 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,360 Now I need to hand you your little device so you can 239 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:11,480 You know play on it and be occupied and if you have everything organized it really really helps 240 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,560 I need patient power shoot pants 241 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,240 Like the bigger the better because every time something goes wrong 242 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,320 I feel like the pants get a little shorter from the waistline and then all of a sudden you got leg warmers 243 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,920 Listen, that's all that's left. That's how I roll. You need like a patient's like 244 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,720 Parked 245 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:37,720 My third tip is we're a bum bag or a fanny pack. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No, no, no, no, no 246 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:42,840 We're not gonna pass by this one. We're gonna we're gonna sit on this for a while the bum bag 247 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:47,960 The bum bag guys is what they call is the fanny pack in 248 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:54,440 Across the pond in england they call it a bum bag and not a fanny pack. We call it a fanny pack 249 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,560 But they call it a bum bag. Okay. We're in we're in delco 250 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,080 We don't call it a fanny pack. What do you guys call it? 251 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:07,320 Because it goes across your body. Is that like the 2020s like name for it? 252 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,520 Well, yeah, he's talking about a legit fanny pack around your waist 253 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:16,600 We're talking about the lulu lemon cross body bag, which can go around your waist. Oh, yeah, it can. Hmm. Yeah 254 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,640 Um, but I will forever my patients pants are coming off 255 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:27,880 I'm calling it the bum bag forever the point of me bringing this up is because you know how you're only allowed to have two 256 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,920 Carions. Yeah attached to your body and you can have a pretty decent size one 257 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:37,240 And that's where I keep my phone my wallet if I'm like if any of my past my passport chargers 258 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:43,160 So I always have that on me. It will loop through the belt holes of your patients pants and keep them on 259 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,120 longer. Yeah 260 00:20:46,120 --> 00:20:51,080 Bring us to number four. Okay tip number four just buy snacks at the airport. Don't pack them 261 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,520 All right. I have a problem with this. They're so expensive 262 00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:01,400 Everything in my opinion now is expensive. Like if you're gonna go get snacks at even like wawa, they're like 263 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:06,920 One dollar more. All right, fine. You win this one. That's true. No, I will be devil's advocate 264 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,720 You're talking about party of one. You're talking about party of five 265 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:14,760 So that makes a little bit of a difference. However, you're not wrong. Wait, those were really helpful 266 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:20,520 We don't travel enough to think ahead of time. I am very organized in my carry-ons though 267 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:25,160 I will say that but other than that like I've never packed my patients pants. So it's super 268 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:31,240 Super helpful, but that is getting to your destination getting to your cruise getting to wherever you're going 269 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,800 so say you're on 270 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,920 A vacation or an extended stay 271 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,360 Somewhere, how do you keep a routine? My routine that I got myself into in working out was 272 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:48,600 Doing so I used to be a runner. I ran. I've run the broad street race. I've done a Philly half marathon 273 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,400 I've never done a full marathon, but I've done the Philly half marathon 274 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:56,600 Um, I've done the boiler maker race, which is a huge race up in Utica, New York 275 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:00,200 Which is where my mom's whole side of the family is which is um, just under 10 miles 276 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:04,680 It's like nine points something was this the year that we weren't speaking because I don't remember any of this 277 00:22:06,360 --> 00:22:12,440 I have always been a runner, but now I my routine is I I just walk so I will go 278 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,760 Yeah, I'll put down 279 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,480 I have unfortunately, um, but it's still good 280 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,640 It's still I will go up to the track on the ship and I will walk the track for an hour 281 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,280 And now that I have Spotify and can 282 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,200 Things I'm gonna 283 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:34,200 It'll be even more enjoyable because now I can listen to podcasts and just this one just this one, of course 284 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:39,800 That's why he downloaded it. Do you know what this is called? Uh, fit to be real very good. I'm impressed 285 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,040 Something Victoria doesn't have with your with your bloops 286 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,800 You know the the emoji girl that is like this 287 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,800 She's got her hand 288 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,880 Uh flat by her ear like she's pressing up her hair. Yeah, I call her the bloop girl 289 00:22:52,120 --> 00:22:56,040 Like she's like when she's doing this like I do that when like you make a good point and you're like 290 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,960 I call her the bloop guys. I don't know why he wasn't into me 291 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,040 He's more into the bloop girl than he was ever into me 292 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:09,720 You kind of look like the bloop girl. You look like the blonde bloop girl. You look like blonde bloop emoji girl 293 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,200 anyway 294 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,200 I 295 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,640 I'm gonna relate this to people that don't necessarily work on a cruise ship or 296 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:27,800 Frequently go to a cruise for their vacation when it comes to summertime. So if you are a 297 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,200 Delconian 298 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:37,240 And you go down the shore every single weekend where you are working Monday to Friday at home or at your job here in 299 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,880 Delaware County, and then you go down to the Jersey Shore 300 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:44,920 Or every single weekend there's like a different routine there than there is here 301 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:50,520 It's a different mentality of being quote unquote vacation mode and then being strict for your Monday to Friday 302 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:54,760 However, when it goes to doing the same monotonous weekend over and over again 303 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,320 All of these rules apply you can do it with a group you find another house 304 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:04,040 Family mate whatever you want to call it whoever you're vacationing with down the shore 305 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,240 And it just makes it a little bit more doable to keep to your routine 306 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,600 And to not feel like you're never gonna get this weekend again 307 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,320 Because I tend to do that when we go to our two week vacation 308 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,240 That we're never gonna get that two weeks again because really it's only two weeks of the summer 309 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,960 It's not every single weekend, but it happens every year. So you keep that routine 310 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:28,280 You keep your health regimen, and then it's not such the vacation mode mindset 311 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,800 Doesn't feel so drastic from your everyday 312 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,880 Mindset, it's the same thing with packing like we go down the shore all the time 313 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,720 What do we wear bathing suits and pajamas? Why do we pack seven suitcases? 314 00:24:40,120 --> 00:24:43,480 You know I pack so many suitcases for these two weeks 315 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:49,160 And we don't wear any of it and that's what I need to do. I need to pair it down just go to the basics 316 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,880 And and that would be fine. Yeah, I know I know I need to actually do it though 317 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,960 Well, thank you for all of the tips and the 318 00:24:56,120 --> 00:25:00,920 Kind of the insight into your world, which is very different from the everyman 319 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,800 It's so different but really cool that you get to go through it 320 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,720 So thank you for sharing but we're gonna torture you a little bit more now and we've got a game 321 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:15,640 You want to know what the game is called? I'm scared. It's called long story short 322 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,280 You can't sit with us 323 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:19,720 Yes 324 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,280 And none of us are wearing pink.
