WEBVTT

00:00:01.199 --> 00:00:04.179
Black people meet. Christian Mingle. With two

00:00:04.179 --> 00:00:07.860
E's, not an E -A. E -A is a completely different

00:00:07.860 --> 00:00:14.779
website. I've heard. Will we get cut off? What

00:00:14.779 --> 00:00:21.280
happened? 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0. Welcome to the show,

00:00:21.280 --> 00:00:34.770
people. Welcome to the show. Eat my shorts. So

00:00:34.770 --> 00:00:39.729
here is to conversation. Tranquility base here.

00:00:39.869 --> 00:00:59.979
Vehicle has landed. Welcome to the Cash Exchange.

00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:02.759
What's up? How are y 'all doing today? We're

00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:05.579
good. How was your drive in this morning? How

00:01:05.579 --> 00:01:08.120
are you? I'm good. You're also good? And we have

00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:11.500
a third host today. Would you like to introduce

00:01:11.500 --> 00:01:14.319
yourself? Say anything about yourself? I mean,

00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:17.359
they might know me from a previous episode. You

00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:19.700
have been on a previous episode. Yeah. Making

00:01:19.700 --> 00:01:22.060
my debut. What was that? Birthday week people?

00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:24.819
Yeah. Yeah. It's a good one. Check it out. It's

00:01:24.819 --> 00:01:27.200
gotten high praise from Karen. So you know it's

00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:30.180
good. All right. Do you want to know what your

00:01:30.180 --> 00:01:38.680
three things are for today? Yes. You waited too

00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:40.340
long. You're getting them anyway. I guess so.

00:01:40.420 --> 00:01:42.159
Okay. All right. Your three things for today

00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:46.019
are Bluey, My Little Pony, and Beanie Babies.

00:01:47.299 --> 00:01:52.219
Bluey, My Little Pony, and Beanie Babies. You

00:01:52.219 --> 00:01:55.900
remembered them all. Congrats. I've been having

00:01:55.900 --> 00:01:59.739
a rough go at it with remembering things I heard

00:01:59.739 --> 00:02:02.739
10 seconds ago. So the fact that I got all three

00:02:02.739 --> 00:02:05.200
of those is a miracle. To be fair, you did just

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:08.780
get off the road. Yes, that is correct. Because

00:02:08.780 --> 00:02:11.199
we were, and this will be a nice little tie -in

00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:15.259
to one of your three things, we were just at

00:02:15.259 --> 00:02:19.060
a basketball tournament in College Station. You

00:02:19.060 --> 00:02:22.379
ever been? I went when I was a junior in high

00:02:22.379 --> 00:02:24.830
school for the Tour A &M. Yeah, me too. What

00:02:24.830 --> 00:02:27.349
did you think of it when you toured? Not my people.

00:02:27.610 --> 00:02:29.430
Not for me. Not for me. Not the same thing I

00:02:29.430 --> 00:02:31.909
felt. What about you? What did you think about

00:02:31.909 --> 00:02:35.389
College Station? I had a lot of A &M stuff. Very

00:02:35.389 --> 00:02:38.330
small. Yeah. It's a college and that's it. Yeah.

00:02:38.669 --> 00:02:44.250
An empty mall. And a Chewy's. But we went there

00:02:44.250 --> 00:02:47.789
for a family member's basketball tournament.

00:02:48.229 --> 00:02:51.000
And this apparently is a huge tournament. They

00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:53.080
played it in a high school. They played it in

00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:57.539
Rudder, the Rudder High School there, and they're

00:02:57.539 --> 00:03:00.319
the Rudder Rangers. And everywhere there's a

00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:02.759
sign that says Rudder Rangers, there's a little

00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:05.219
logo for the National Guard. So I don't know

00:03:05.219 --> 00:03:07.419
if this is like a feeder high school for the

00:03:07.419 --> 00:03:09.139
Corps of Cadets, and then you go into the National

00:03:09.139 --> 00:03:12.479
Guard. I don't know why it needs to be plastered

00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:14.719
everywhere. And it's just the National Guard.

00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:17.139
There's no other military branches on there.

00:03:17.449 --> 00:03:19.229
These people are realistic about their students'

00:03:19.550 --> 00:03:24.349
futures. Respect. We went there, and first off,

00:03:24.389 --> 00:03:28.710
it was a tournament that is, it was an all -day

00:03:28.710 --> 00:03:31.590
thing. It's been an, you know, how many days

00:03:31.590 --> 00:03:33.889
has it been going on? Today was the last day.

00:03:34.409 --> 00:03:37.189
I think it's been going on since. The 16th, so

00:03:37.189 --> 00:03:40.050
like four days. Like Wednesday or Thursday. Okay.

00:03:40.210 --> 00:03:43.830
And the cost of it was $40 a person. For a high

00:03:43.830 --> 00:03:46.370
school game? Per day. Well, it was split between.

00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:49.560
uh the high school the people that the ones that

00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:51.379
were playing at the high school and then the

00:03:51.379 --> 00:03:54.360
ones that were playing at the arena thing it

00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:56.580
wasn't it wasn't part of a &m but it was like

00:03:56.580 --> 00:04:02.479
a multi -complex 40 a day and i mean the people

00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:04.879
the parents we were hanging out with had been

00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:07.139
there since the beginning right so paying 40

00:04:07.139 --> 00:04:10.580
a day times two and we went and we went to dinner

00:04:10.580 --> 00:04:12.740
and we went to see them because it hadn't been

00:04:12.740 --> 00:04:15.780
it'd been a while since we've seen them and we

00:04:15.780 --> 00:04:19.680
were heavily debating on whether or not to actually

00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:23.339
go because it would be $40 for a nine o 'clock

00:04:23.339 --> 00:04:26.199
game, the last game of the night. So $40 a piece,

00:04:26.220 --> 00:04:30.079
so $80. So we went back and forth and we were

00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:33.959
told by the patriarch of the family that this

00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:36.319
game was going to be a blowout. The one we'd

00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:38.600
be going to see. We're going to annihilate this

00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:41.050
team from Australia. which is where the blue

00:04:41.050 --> 00:04:44.089
Italian comes from, and that it wouldn't be worth

00:04:44.089 --> 00:04:46.329
the $80. We were hanging out with them after

00:04:46.329 --> 00:04:48.649
dinner, and then they went into the game, and

00:04:48.649 --> 00:04:51.589
then we get a text saying that, yeah, they're

00:04:51.589 --> 00:04:55.050
not charging people. I spoke to the girl at the

00:04:55.050 --> 00:04:57.589
door, and she said, just come on in. So we get

00:04:57.589 --> 00:05:01.529
there. No one's at the gate. No one's at the

00:05:01.529 --> 00:05:04.110
door. We walk into the arena, and there's maybe,

00:05:04.389 --> 00:05:08.449
what, 15 people watching this game? Oh, wow.

00:05:08.589 --> 00:05:10.779
Okay. And they were halfway through the first

00:05:10.779 --> 00:05:16.980
quarter losing. And all you heard was this Australian

00:05:16.980 --> 00:05:20.439
basketball coach on the other end of the court

00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:25.459
just screaming in his silly accent, relax, relax.

00:05:26.530 --> 00:05:28.329
You just kept saying that. I don't even know

00:05:28.329 --> 00:05:30.129
what that means in the context of a basketball

00:05:30.129 --> 00:05:32.189
game. Should you relax during a basketball game?

00:05:32.269 --> 00:05:34.569
I don't know. But the whole time I was just trying

00:05:34.569 --> 00:05:37.209
to come up with like Australian slurs to yell

00:05:37.209 --> 00:05:41.850
across the room at them. Okay. And I mean, they

00:05:41.850 --> 00:05:44.730
would have been a lot better had the game gone

00:05:44.730 --> 00:05:47.509
the way everyone expected it to. One of them

00:05:47.509 --> 00:05:49.850
was going to be, we're going to take you down.

00:05:51.820 --> 00:05:54.620
Another one was going to be, after this game's

00:05:54.620 --> 00:05:56.699
over, you're going to have to koala ambulance.

00:05:58.139 --> 00:06:03.259
Okay. Kangaroo Jack sucked. Wow. The disrespect.

00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:08.720
What else was there? Oh, when y 'all lose this

00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:10.920
game, it's not going to be a good day for you.

00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:16.459
That one was my favorite. And then another one,

00:06:16.459 --> 00:06:20.060
regrettably, was Bluey sucks. But it doesn't.

00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:22.160
It doesn't. I didn't believe it. I just wanted

00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:23.980
to hurt them, you know? Sure, yeah. You know

00:06:23.980 --> 00:06:27.480
how whenever someone you love, or just someone

00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:30.519
hurts you, and you just want to say the meanest

00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:32.740
thing possible, even if you don't believe it.

00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:35.639
Do you think that Australians are as loyal to

00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:39.899
Bluey as Americans are? They better be. They

00:06:39.899 --> 00:06:44.360
better be. And for you to have the audacity to

00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:48.420
use Bluey's name in the title of your three things,

00:06:49.709 --> 00:06:52.889
And then we get to talking about Muffin. And

00:06:52.889 --> 00:06:56.670
you're like, oh, is that the mom? Is that the

00:06:56.670 --> 00:06:59.750
mom in Bluey's mom? I would just like to point

00:06:59.750 --> 00:07:02.670
out that in the first take of this episode, they

00:07:02.670 --> 00:07:06.069
both forgot several members of the family. No,

00:07:06.089 --> 00:07:08.930
we didn't. We forgot one. Okay, you forgot one

00:07:08.930 --> 00:07:11.730
member of the family. I stand by it. That's 25

00:07:11.730 --> 00:07:18.490
% of the Bluey family. Muffin is the... embodiment

00:07:18.490 --> 00:07:23.589
of chaos okay and she's the yin to her sister's

00:07:23.589 --> 00:07:26.970
yang which is socks who is just go with the flow

00:07:26.970 --> 00:07:31.449
a baby with no dialogue right yes yes but but

00:07:31.449 --> 00:07:34.550
sees the chaos that muffin creates and tries

00:07:34.550 --> 00:07:37.790
to bring some levity to it okay so from our first

00:07:37.790 --> 00:07:42.170
take do you remember the core members of the

00:07:42.170 --> 00:07:46.829
healer family so the parents are bandit the dad

00:07:47.420 --> 00:07:52.459
Chili the mom, Bluey, obviously, and Bingo, the

00:07:52.459 --> 00:07:55.120
little sister. I have a feeling that I might

00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:57.040
step on my toes for some things that I'm going

00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:00.360
to say later in this episode. But do you know

00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:05.879
what careers Bandit and Chili have? No, I have

00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:10.420
no idea. Think dog. Bandit is an archaeologist.

00:08:10.740 --> 00:08:15.639
Okay, digs up bones. And Chili works in airport

00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:22.399
security. Is she a drug -sniffing dog? Yes. Okay,

00:08:22.540 --> 00:08:27.639
that's pretty cool. Okay, so off my bluey tangent,

00:08:27.959 --> 00:08:31.899
my bluey tirade. Beanie Babies. Was that the

00:08:31.899 --> 00:08:34.120
second one or was that the third one? I mean,

00:08:34.139 --> 00:08:35.639
it's all the same, but it was the third one.

00:08:35.820 --> 00:08:38.440
What was your second one? My Little Pony. Oh,

00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:42.940
Lord. My Little Pony. So this is our second go

00:08:42.940 --> 00:08:46.220
-around with this. So I feel like the... Element

00:08:46.220 --> 00:08:50.980
of surprise is no longer there for our guest

00:08:50.980 --> 00:08:56.919
host today. Sure. But I think that My Little

00:08:56.919 --> 00:09:01.200
Pony is the only thing I can think of. I don't

00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:02.460
think of the show. I don't think of the toys.

00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:06.679
All I can think of now is Rule 34. That is...

00:09:06.679 --> 00:09:11.179
I think a lot of why that was part of my through

00:09:11.179 --> 00:09:15.330
line. I... unfortunately, was raised in the Tumblr

00:09:15.330 --> 00:09:20.629
era, which is the perfect embodiment of Rule

00:09:20.629 --> 00:09:25.509
34. Are you familiar with it? No. When you said

00:09:25.509 --> 00:09:28.409
Tumblr, I thought of, like, the Cubs. I didn't

00:09:28.409 --> 00:09:35.450
even know what Tumblr was. It was every angsty

00:09:35.450 --> 00:09:39.909
teenager's, like, outlet. Don't recommend. No.

00:09:40.169 --> 00:09:46.059
No. Rule 34 is essentially the idea that if a

00:09:46.059 --> 00:09:50.179
thing exists, there is suggestive material made

00:09:50.179 --> 00:09:52.580
about it. Very suggestive. And sometimes they

00:09:52.580 --> 00:09:56.139
don't even suggest it. They just show it. Yeah.

00:09:57.220 --> 00:10:02.100
Yikes. Disney has a whole vault of things that

00:10:02.100 --> 00:10:04.279
were made based on their IP because everything

00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:06.039
that an animator makes while they're employed

00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:10.179
by Disney is owned by them. And so as a... I

00:10:10.179 --> 00:10:12.720
think kind of protest. They just decided to make

00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:17.440
a whole bunch of Disney porn. So there's a Disney

00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:22.179
porn vault. Gross. Do you believe in the conspiracies

00:10:22.179 --> 00:10:25.820
with the sex and the dust and the Lion King and

00:10:25.820 --> 00:10:32.409
the boner and Little Mermaid? I mean, I think

00:10:32.409 --> 00:10:35.210
it's possible. There was legitimately a penis

00:10:35.210 --> 00:10:37.850
on the cover of Little Mermaid. Yeah, I have

00:10:37.850 --> 00:10:41.690
the old VHS. Then there was also a boner during

00:10:41.690 --> 00:10:46.210
the wedding scene. Yeah. I think the sex thing

00:10:46.210 --> 00:10:48.950
is a reach. But I think there's also probably

00:10:48.950 --> 00:10:51.470
a lot of people get bored doing the same thing

00:10:51.470 --> 00:10:54.990
every single day. And sometimes you probably

00:10:54.990 --> 00:10:57.129
want to throw in a nod every once in a while

00:10:57.129 --> 00:11:00.730
to something that you can get past the censors.

00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:03.179
And it's going to give you some kind of pride,

00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:09.100
probably. Yeah. Yeah. I knew the only interactions

00:11:09.100 --> 00:11:14.179
that I've had with my little pony people is a

00:11:14.179 --> 00:11:20.580
cousin that I was around. And he was very, very

00:11:20.580 --> 00:11:23.580
invested. He was probably 16 at the time. Wrong

00:11:23.580 --> 00:11:27.259
age. No inclination of what he wanted to do with

00:11:27.259 --> 00:11:30.659
his life. No want for a driver's license. He

00:11:30.659 --> 00:11:37.019
planned to be in his parents' home for as long

00:11:37.019 --> 00:11:38.720
as they would have them, which I felt like was

00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:41.720
a ticking clock. He was on his way out the door,

00:11:41.740 --> 00:11:44.879
whether he liked it or not. But he would go on

00:11:44.879 --> 00:11:49.919
these spiels about My Little Pony and lore, and

00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:54.620
you couldn't tell him to shut up. You couldn't

00:11:54.620 --> 00:11:57.759
say, hey, talk about something normal for a 16

00:11:57.759 --> 00:12:01.600
-year -old boy. because you felt like if he didn't

00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:04.139
have an outlet for these things then he would

00:12:04.139 --> 00:12:06.779
express himself other ways and that's not good

00:12:06.779 --> 00:12:09.039
for anyone so everyone just let him talk are

00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:10.779
we talking about a pumped up kicks kind of situation

00:12:10.779 --> 00:12:13.159
something like that yeah and uh so everyone just

00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:15.779
let him talk just shut it out and just said hey

00:12:15.779 --> 00:12:19.200
that's him being him whatever anyways next topic

00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:22.679
and then whenever it's the weekend and the kids

00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:24.580
wake up they always wake up at a god -awful early

00:12:24.580 --> 00:12:27.779
hour like it's the weekend sleep in But no, they

00:12:27.779 --> 00:12:30.059
want to get up at 5 .45, 6 o 'clock. They've

00:12:30.059 --> 00:12:34.059
mastered their circadian rhythms. When we don't

00:12:34.059 --> 00:12:36.860
have the forethought the night before to snatch

00:12:36.860 --> 00:12:39.080
the remote and go hide it so that they can't

00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:41.399
turn on the TV as soon as they wake up, there

00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:46.419
have been mornings where we have arisen to My

00:12:46.419 --> 00:12:50.200
Little Pony on the TV, which on its face is,

00:12:50.299 --> 00:12:53.740
okay, fine, whatever. This is material that is

00:12:53.740 --> 00:12:56.820
meant for this age of children. But the problem

00:12:56.820 --> 00:12:59.080
is that it doesn't look like My Little Pony.

00:12:59.139 --> 00:13:01.440
How? I ask them what they're watching. They say,

00:13:01.500 --> 00:13:04.659
it's My Little Pony. But it's humans. It's like

00:13:04.659 --> 00:13:09.500
Monster High Bratz doll humans. Okay. They're

00:13:09.500 --> 00:13:12.679
like purple and green and have rainbow hair and

00:13:12.679 --> 00:13:16.419
all this stuff. It's how I imagine every high

00:13:16.419 --> 00:13:24.080
school in California looks. So I said, this isn't

00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:25.240
My Little Pony. And then they'll show me the

00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:26.899
title screen, and it's like, My Little Pony,

00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:29.139
blah, blah, blah. And I said, they're supposed

00:13:29.139 --> 00:13:30.860
to be horses. That's why it's called My Little

00:13:30.860 --> 00:13:35.679
Pony. And they just say, well, no, they started

00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:38.440
out as horses, as ponies, but now they're humans.

00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:42.360
On this planet, they're humans. On this planet?

00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:46.120
I don't know. When did it turn into an interplanetary

00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:52.059
show? But it is just a bashing to the brain cells.

00:13:52.590 --> 00:13:55.629
There's nothing positive in it that I have seen.

00:13:55.730 --> 00:14:00.149
And we've seen so many episodes. Yeah. It's yelling.

00:14:01.009 --> 00:14:06.230
It's shrieking. It's just nonstop nonsense. The

00:14:06.230 --> 00:14:09.830
whole ride through. Okay. So it's got a soft

00:14:09.830 --> 00:14:12.970
ban in our house right now. And I feel like the

00:14:12.970 --> 00:14:15.210
next time that it is back on, it's going to get

00:14:15.210 --> 00:14:17.789
a full ban. I genuinely didn't know they were

00:14:17.789 --> 00:14:20.490
still making My Little Pony. Yeah. Yeah, it exists.

00:14:21.070 --> 00:14:27.070
And I can't get away from what I know is on the

00:14:27.070 --> 00:14:29.450
internet about this stupid show. And so that

00:14:29.450 --> 00:14:32.110
makes it ten times worse. That is absolutely

00:14:32.110 --> 00:14:34.250
fair, especially now that they're people. When

00:14:34.250 --> 00:14:36.669
did they anamorph my little pony? That's a great

00:14:36.669 --> 00:14:38.990
question. You need to write in to whoever it

00:14:38.990 --> 00:14:41.070
needs to be written into. Respectfully, I am

00:14:41.070 --> 00:14:45.190
not the crowd. I'm not a concerned parent. As

00:14:45.190 --> 00:14:49.090
a 26 -year -old childless adult, I don't think

00:14:49.090 --> 00:14:52.559
that I can... I can be the Karen in this situation.

00:14:53.220 --> 00:14:57.779
Oh. Nope. A what? Whoa. I'm going to need you

00:14:57.779 --> 00:15:00.639
to censor that. Nope. Nope. That's going in there.

00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:03.779
Unabridged. That can be the soft dope. Number

00:15:03.779 --> 00:15:08.279
one kid. Number one kid. You gave her grandkids.

00:15:08.379 --> 00:15:14.919
You already won. Hey -o. Number three was Beanie

00:15:14.919 --> 00:15:17.460
Babies. Do you have any experience with Beanie

00:15:17.460 --> 00:15:20.620
Babies? Yeah. I have a whole collection. Yeah?

00:15:20.779 --> 00:15:23.500
Yeah. Not displayed or anything. It's in this

00:15:23.500 --> 00:15:27.279
pouch. There we go. Shoved in another container

00:15:27.279 --> 00:15:31.120
collecting dust in our garage. But back in the

00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:35.460
day, I played with them and tried not to rip

00:15:35.460 --> 00:15:38.799
the tags off of them. No? Do you have the Princess

00:15:38.799 --> 00:15:41.700
Diana bear? Yes. Now what condition is it in?

00:15:42.159 --> 00:15:46.220
Mint? Near mint? No. We didn't get the little

00:15:46.220 --> 00:15:49.399
plastic covers. That was our retirement plan.

00:15:50.659 --> 00:15:54.440
Now it's out the window. So I just, again, shoved

00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:56.220
in a container. Now we've got to work until we're

00:15:56.220 --> 00:15:59.899
dead. All because of the tag on a Princess Diana

00:15:59.899 --> 00:16:02.639
bear. It's a shame. Should have been a more responsible

00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:06.679
nine -year -old. You should have been. What's

00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:09.340
the beanie baby of 2025? What are those called?

00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:17.500
Labooboos. Labooboos? Yeah. I don't get it. They're

00:16:17.500 --> 00:16:22.080
neat. I mean, are they? It's a mystery. I like

00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:25.519
a mystery toy. You don't know which one you're

00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:27.940
going to get until you open it. But then you

00:16:27.940 --> 00:16:30.840
get the bad one, and then it's a bummer. Labooboos

00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:38.279
are like a box of chocolates. I've seen freakouts

00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:40.419
online, and I understand that the ones that you

00:16:40.419 --> 00:16:43.580
see online are going to be the most ridiculous

00:16:43.580 --> 00:16:49.899
reactions to them. But I don't fathom it. Can't

00:16:49.899 --> 00:16:55.500
wrap my head around why... And they're so expensive.

00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:59.220
Yeah. And they've been around for a while, and

00:16:59.220 --> 00:17:01.460
then now they just all of a sudden hit it big,

00:17:01.500 --> 00:17:04.180
where NBA players are walking into games with

00:17:04.180 --> 00:17:06.359
one of them clipped to their belt loop. They

00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:08.440
looked really janky when they first came out.

00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:11.700
Not that they don't now, but I was actually watching

00:17:11.700 --> 00:17:14.720
a video on them the other day. and apparently

00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:16.779
the reason that they're so big now is because

00:17:16.779 --> 00:17:19.420
there was a K -pop idol who essentially brought

00:17:19.420 --> 00:17:22.819
them into the mix. Yeah, and then from there

00:17:22.819 --> 00:17:24.400
it went through all the American celebrities,

00:17:24.420 --> 00:17:28.500
and now all of a sudden they're $100. I served

00:17:28.500 --> 00:17:33.619
a couple a little while ago, and the lady had

00:17:33.619 --> 00:17:38.880
a labubu and a little chair for it. It felt like

00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:43.049
I was serving at the American Doll Cafe. And,

00:17:43.069 --> 00:17:46.990
I mean, to each their own. Like, if that's what

00:17:46.990 --> 00:17:50.049
makes you happy, then who am I to say otherwise?

00:17:50.430 --> 00:17:52.309
Was it at least being filmed? Could they blame

00:17:52.309 --> 00:17:54.069
it on that? I felt like I was being punked for

00:17:54.069 --> 00:17:56.529
a moment there. I don't think I was being filmed,

00:17:56.609 --> 00:17:59.509
but it was a... Sorry, we know this looks strange,

00:17:59.569 --> 00:18:01.990
but we're trying to go viral. I would accept

00:18:01.990 --> 00:18:04.029
it then. I would have absolutely respected that.

00:18:04.390 --> 00:18:07.250
I respect the hustle, but I'm deeply confused

00:18:07.250 --> 00:18:10.049
by just a dinner out with your labubu. Did they

00:18:10.049 --> 00:18:12.890
order any food for their labubu? That would have

00:18:12.890 --> 00:18:16.250
been... If I'm being honest, I tried to interact

00:18:16.250 --> 00:18:20.569
with them as little as possible. I was at, you

00:18:20.569 --> 00:18:24.230
know that aquarium that we went to that got protested

00:18:24.230 --> 00:18:26.930
by three people at PETA and then now it's gone?

00:18:27.190 --> 00:18:31.529
Yeah. Yeah. So I was there another time and there

00:18:31.529 --> 00:18:37.630
was a woman there with a stroller and two...

00:18:37.630 --> 00:18:40.099
This woman was probably about my age. So early

00:18:40.099 --> 00:18:42.700
30s. Two people that were with her, I'm assuming

00:18:42.700 --> 00:18:44.819
were parents, probably in their 50s, somewhere

00:18:44.819 --> 00:18:48.579
in there. And so I was like, oh, just a family

00:18:48.579 --> 00:18:52.759
out taking baby to the aquarium. No. I was there

00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:55.180
for that. I caught it. Oh, you were? I was. Oh.

00:18:55.900 --> 00:19:00.400
And I caught a glimpse of this thing, this mass

00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:05.259
that was in the stroller. And it wasn't a child.

00:19:05.940 --> 00:19:10.440
It wasn't a real baby. It was one of those freaky,

00:19:10.539 --> 00:19:12.579
I don't know, what are they called? Like the

00:19:12.579 --> 00:19:18.779
unborn? There's a name for them that is genuinely

00:19:18.779 --> 00:19:24.480
deeply questionable. No, it's just like, and

00:19:24.480 --> 00:19:28.920
why are we feeding into this? Like if my children

00:19:28.920 --> 00:19:32.779
were in a place where they wanted to do that,

00:19:32.900 --> 00:19:35.700
we would have a sit down and say, hey, let's

00:19:35.700 --> 00:19:39.369
not. Let's get you a puppy. They're reborn dolls,

00:19:39.490 --> 00:19:42.390
by the way. Reborn. That's way better than unborn.

00:19:44.650 --> 00:19:49.289
I mean. It's still an odd choice. The girl was

00:19:49.289 --> 00:19:52.769
old? Oh, yeah. Like an adult? Like my age. Like

00:19:52.769 --> 00:19:54.609
our age. We're not going to have to worry about

00:19:54.609 --> 00:19:56.970
that because adult children don't need to live

00:19:56.970 --> 00:19:59.730
at home. Oh, I don't know if they lived at home.

00:20:00.269 --> 00:20:01.950
They were just out together? They were just out

00:20:01.950 --> 00:20:04.349
together, yeah. Okay. And I don't even know if

00:20:04.349 --> 00:20:05.569
those were her parents. Maybe those were just

00:20:05.569 --> 00:20:08.490
her caretakers. I don't know. It was an interesting

00:20:08.490 --> 00:20:11.029
situation, for sure. It was, and I did like a

00:20:11.029 --> 00:20:14.789
triple take. Because the first one, I just caught

00:20:14.789 --> 00:20:17.130
something in the corner of my eye. And then the

00:20:17.130 --> 00:20:20.009
second one, I was like, there's no way. And then

00:20:20.009 --> 00:20:25.650
the third one, I got a full picture. I don't

00:20:25.650 --> 00:20:30.069
know. It's creepy. To each their own. To each

00:20:30.069 --> 00:20:34.990
their own. Which brings me to a disclaimer, just

00:20:34.990 --> 00:20:38.200
a blanket disclaimer. for anything I say during

00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:41.579
this episode. You do you. I don't care. If you

00:20:41.579 --> 00:20:43.660
have weird things that you want to make your

00:20:43.660 --> 00:20:46.440
entire personality, go for it. I probably have

00:20:46.440 --> 00:20:47.960
things about my personality that you're like,

00:20:48.059 --> 00:20:50.259
that's weird. And you can have opinions about

00:20:50.259 --> 00:20:53.019
that, but so can I about your weird things. Yeah,

00:20:53.079 --> 00:20:55.319
I mean, you collect pencil sharpeners. That's

00:20:55.319 --> 00:20:58.259
kind of weird to some people. I do. You collect

00:20:58.259 --> 00:21:00.480
pencil sharpeners? But they're cool ones. There's

00:21:00.480 --> 00:21:04.869
this weird phenomenon around the country. that

00:21:04.869 --> 00:21:12.970
you go to a tourist attraction, somewhere where

00:21:12.970 --> 00:21:16.589
there's a gift shop, and you'll find these little

00:21:16.589 --> 00:21:22.950
copper figurines. Okay. And 100 % of the time,

00:21:22.970 --> 00:21:26.170
for whatever reason, they are pencil sharpeners.

00:21:26.670 --> 00:21:30.309
Yeah, what do we have? We have an Alamo. We have

00:21:30.309 --> 00:21:31.890
a Ben Franklin. We have an Independence Hall.

00:21:31.990 --> 00:21:34.630
We have a Liberty Bell. We have an oil derrick.

00:21:34.910 --> 00:21:39.690
We have a... I have that love statue from Philly.

00:21:39.789 --> 00:21:42.230
From Philly, yeah. And they're all pencil sharpeners

00:21:42.230 --> 00:21:45.210
for whatever reason. Weird. Abraham Lincoln?

00:21:45.950 --> 00:21:50.069
I don't know. Maybe. I don't know. But yeah,

00:21:50.150 --> 00:21:53.670
we collect those. A horse. Yeah, I got that at

00:21:53.670 --> 00:21:57.680
the stockyard. If you have a business... Or you

00:21:57.680 --> 00:22:00.259
can get us in touch with a business that makes

00:22:00.259 --> 00:22:02.559
these things. We would love to talk to them and

00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:04.579
get whatever ones that they're willing to give

00:22:04.579 --> 00:22:07.980
us. I didn't know that was a thing. I'll definitely

00:22:07.980 --> 00:22:11.519
keep an eye out for them now. Whenever this episode

00:22:11.519 --> 00:22:15.500
goes live Thursday, I'll post a picture of my

00:22:15.500 --> 00:22:18.279
collection. Nice. Of my copper pencil sharpeners.

00:22:19.859 --> 00:22:24.099
Okay. So, Bluey, My Little Pony, Beanie Babies.

00:22:24.240 --> 00:22:27.609
Yep. Do you have? Can you? Can you draw the line?

00:22:27.750 --> 00:22:30.490
Yeah, for once. Yeah? I think I can. Okay. What

00:22:30.490 --> 00:22:34.369
do you got? Things that are intentionally made

00:22:34.369 --> 00:22:37.029
for children. Okay. That's half of it, yeah.

00:22:37.369 --> 00:22:41.009
Is it things that are meant for children but

00:22:41.009 --> 00:22:44.829
have been usurped by adults? That have been made

00:22:44.829 --> 00:22:48.349
really weird by adults, yeah. Yeah. Like Rule

00:22:48.349 --> 00:22:52.250
34. Like Rule 34. So, I mean, I guess technically

00:22:52.250 --> 00:22:54.609
it could have used any kind of kids programming.

00:22:55.200 --> 00:22:59.660
I guess so. Everything's been made weird. And

00:22:59.660 --> 00:23:03.200
that takes us to our topic of the day, Disney

00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:08.059
adults. Disney adults. And I want to remind you

00:23:08.059 --> 00:23:13.700
that I have that blanket disclaimer. So don't

00:23:13.700 --> 00:23:17.599
come at me. Okay, so as kind of a preface, left,

00:23:17.740 --> 00:23:19.960
right, or center, where do you stand on Disney

00:23:19.960 --> 00:23:22.839
adults? Are you for, against, somewhere in the

00:23:22.839 --> 00:23:26.539
middle? Which ones? I would assume that thinking

00:23:26.539 --> 00:23:29.740
that they are ridiculous freaks is the right.

00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:33.839
I did not mean that politically, but sure, yes.

00:23:35.380 --> 00:23:38.039
Well, which one's right? Which one's left? I

00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:42.680
rephrased it after I said it. This is not a political

00:23:42.680 --> 00:23:46.720
podcast. Okay, so I'm on the side of I think

00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:50.940
you're weird with my caveat that that's okay,

00:23:51.059 --> 00:23:54.660
but I can still think that you are weird. So

00:23:54.660 --> 00:23:59.720
is that pro or anti? That is... I'm looking for

00:23:59.720 --> 00:24:02.480
a sound bite. You've got to be directly in one

00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:07.200
side or the other. Okay, I am definitely, without

00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:11.839
a doubt, against my definition of a Disney adult.

00:24:12.220 --> 00:24:15.799
Okay. What about you? What about you? I'm in

00:24:15.799 --> 00:24:20.380
the middle. Straddling the line. Some good, some

00:24:20.380 --> 00:24:24.579
bad? Yep, not really sure which side to go. Where

00:24:24.579 --> 00:24:29.079
are you at? I am pro -Disney adult. There are

00:24:29.079 --> 00:24:31.400
obviously some caveats which we'll get into later,

00:24:31.559 --> 00:24:33.920
but generally speaking, I'm pro -Disney adult.

00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:35.420
We're going to have some tension this episode.

00:24:38.940 --> 00:24:43.980
What is your definition of a Disney adult? I

00:24:43.980 --> 00:24:46.160
specifically think of Disney adults as people

00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:50.319
who make their entire personalities just going

00:24:50.319 --> 00:24:54.819
to the parks, buying all the merch. Yeah. Can't

00:24:54.819 --> 00:24:56.759
have a fully functional conversation outside

00:24:56.759 --> 00:25:01.599
of the context of Disney. Have you guys seen

00:25:01.599 --> 00:25:04.420
Love on the Spectrum? First season? Yes. Ooh,

00:25:04.539 --> 00:25:08.660
future episode alert. I have seen clips because

00:25:08.660 --> 00:25:10.779
I don't think that I could handle a full episode.

00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:15.000
We've watched a little bit of one before and

00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:16.960
then... I can't make it through her thing. I

00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:19.900
don't like to listen to the commentary, so I

00:25:19.900 --> 00:25:22.160
turned it off. Yeah. That's fair. Watched it

00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:25.640
by myself. I'm vocal about my feelings and when

00:25:25.640 --> 00:25:27.180
things don't make sense. So just watch things

00:25:27.180 --> 00:25:31.740
that make sense. I do. Watch things that maybe

00:25:31.740 --> 00:25:35.920
don't target a marginalized portion of our society.

00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:39.279
It's not targeting, it's representation. Why

00:25:39.279 --> 00:25:43.670
is that bad? See, you can't win these arguments,

00:25:43.829 --> 00:25:46.069
people. They're not a sideshow. They're just

00:25:46.069 --> 00:25:50.529
people. So in the first season of Love on the

00:25:50.529 --> 00:25:54.690
Spectrum, there is a girl named Dani. Dani is

00:25:54.690 --> 00:26:02.029
a gigantic animation nerd. So much so that in

00:26:02.029 --> 00:26:04.470
the span of the first season, as she's doing

00:26:04.470 --> 00:26:06.569
these like speed dating things and she's going

00:26:06.569 --> 00:26:08.369
on dates with the people that the producers have

00:26:08.369 --> 00:26:10.970
set her up with, the only thing she talks about.

00:26:11.400 --> 00:26:13.880
Whole season is just animation. The only thing

00:26:13.880 --> 00:26:15.339
that she wants out of a partner, they'll talk

00:26:15.339 --> 00:26:17.799
about animation. At least it's broader than Disney.

00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:22.839
Not really. Oh. I mean, it's not Disney specific,

00:26:23.019 --> 00:26:25.180
but the only thing she'll talk about is the process

00:26:25.180 --> 00:26:30.680
of animation. Do you think that's a rights issue?

00:26:31.380 --> 00:26:33.380
Like Netflix says, hey, you can't say Disney.

00:26:33.380 --> 00:26:34.799
You can say animation. You can't say Disney.

00:26:36.460 --> 00:26:39.000
I don't think that she is the type who would.

00:26:39.529 --> 00:26:41.509
Listen to those rules? Mince her words, yeah.

00:26:41.849 --> 00:26:46.670
I think if she were specific to Disney, she'd

00:26:46.670 --> 00:26:51.069
let you know. Oh, okay. Yeah, a lot that goes

00:26:51.069 --> 00:26:54.450
down in the most recent season. She does find

00:26:54.450 --> 00:26:58.529
her match that does like anime, and then something

00:26:58.529 --> 00:27:00.549
happens. I've already told you, but I don't want

00:27:00.549 --> 00:27:02.289
to spoil it for everybody else that haven't seen

00:27:02.289 --> 00:27:06.470
it yet. I don't remember. He has religious beliefs.

00:27:07.450 --> 00:27:10.750
And she's wanting to be a little bit more intimate

00:27:10.750 --> 00:27:13.269
than he would like to be before marriage. And

00:27:13.269 --> 00:27:17.990
so, yeah. Oh. It's very interesting. Oh, okay,

00:27:18.190 --> 00:27:21.269
yeah. I'm starting to get pieces back of that.

00:27:21.369 --> 00:27:23.710
She lives with her aunt and uncle. And I think

00:27:23.710 --> 00:27:25.410
the first season, that's all she talks about

00:27:25.410 --> 00:27:27.750
is wanting to be intimate with someone. Yeah.

00:27:28.269 --> 00:27:31.789
It's very strange. It's a real horny part of

00:27:31.789 --> 00:27:37.460
that show. She ever heard of a gigolo? a call

00:27:37.460 --> 00:27:42.039
guy are there still jiggalos in 2025 yeah i'm

00:27:42.039 --> 00:27:44.940
finding i'm sure they're easier to find now i

00:27:44.940 --> 00:27:46.980
mean she's out of the shadows she seems more

00:27:46.980 --> 00:27:50.579
like an ai chat kind of girl well she can do

00:27:50.579 --> 00:27:53.480
that from her room yeah she can animate her own

00:27:53.480 --> 00:27:58.579
rule 34 oh no uh anyway circling back uh that

00:27:58.579 --> 00:28:01.759
is how i see disney adults is that kind of like

00:28:01.759 --> 00:28:04.859
one track mind thing you agree with that you

00:28:04.859 --> 00:28:08.650
have anything to expand upon that no i don't

00:28:08.650 --> 00:28:11.730
think so because my my definition of a disney

00:28:11.730 --> 00:28:15.410
adult is a grown usually childless don't come

00:28:15.410 --> 00:28:19.210
at me don't come at me adult that makes their

00:28:19.210 --> 00:28:21.690
entire existence about disney usually with a

00:28:21.690 --> 00:28:27.690
focus on theme parks okay i i'm not coming at

00:28:27.690 --> 00:28:30.490
you but i disagree that the childless thing is

00:28:30.490 --> 00:28:35.980
a qualifier for a disney adult yeah why So I

00:28:35.980 --> 00:28:40.640
think that there are Disney adults across any

00:28:40.640 --> 00:28:45.160
level of parenthood or non -parenthood. We only

00:28:45.160 --> 00:28:47.500
really as a society talk bad about the ones who

00:28:47.500 --> 00:28:50.019
don't have kids. Like realistically, there's

00:28:50.019 --> 00:28:52.640
parents who force a bunch of Disney stuff on

00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:55.000
their kids who are still doing the exact same

00:28:55.000 --> 00:28:59.779
things. We just don't think it's as weird because

00:28:59.779 --> 00:29:02.740
they have kids. But like how many kids do you

00:29:02.740 --> 00:29:08.170
think are named Aurora? Or Ariel or any like

00:29:08.170 --> 00:29:11.609
host of Disney names because their parents just

00:29:11.609 --> 00:29:14.849
really liked those things growing up. Hmm. Aurora.

00:29:16.089 --> 00:29:18.509
Why does that sound familiar? Yeah, that one's

00:29:18.509 --> 00:29:20.470
going to be. Seems like that's something that

00:29:20.470 --> 00:29:23.589
the name that just popped up recently. Maybe

00:29:23.589 --> 00:29:28.680
in the news or I don't. On the TikTok. Oh, the

00:29:28.680 --> 00:29:31.180
TikTok. Yeah, the person who said that when they

00:29:31.180 --> 00:29:33.220
have a baby, that the baby's not going to be

00:29:33.220 --> 00:29:35.420
shown or talked about when they're born. But

00:29:35.420 --> 00:29:38.440
I know what she looks like. Oh, you mean the

00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:40.859
one that was complicit in her mother's murder?

00:29:41.460 --> 00:29:44.880
That would be the one. The planner? The psychological

00:29:44.880 --> 00:29:49.759
manipulator? Yeah. Gypsy Rose? Yeah. Is it Disney

00:29:49.759 --> 00:29:54.460
at all? What? Oh, man. It's almost like you're

00:29:54.460 --> 00:29:57.779
proving my point. Okay, there's a murderer in

00:29:57.779 --> 00:30:05.640
every subsection of society. But I think to a

00:30:05.640 --> 00:30:09.900
counter argument is I think that one, if you

00:30:09.900 --> 00:30:14.039
see a family at Disney, you're more inclined

00:30:14.039 --> 00:30:17.259
to believe that that is just, maybe it's a one

00:30:17.259 --> 00:30:19.559
-off thing. If you know the people personally,

00:30:19.819 --> 00:30:23.319
then you can know like, oh, they go to Disney

00:30:23.319 --> 00:30:27.309
like three times a year. But then also, so when

00:30:27.309 --> 00:30:29.410
you have that, then you have the cushion of the

00:30:29.410 --> 00:30:32.069
kids. So maybe you force the kids into it because

00:30:32.069 --> 00:30:34.950
you really want to do this and maybe the optics

00:30:34.950 --> 00:30:39.190
of it are a little better. Yeah. The stigma is

00:30:39.190 --> 00:30:41.369
a little less harsh if you have kids with you

00:30:41.369 --> 00:30:42.609
because then it's just, oh, we're just family

00:30:42.609 --> 00:30:48.490
on a trip. But then the ones that get the backlash,

00:30:48.710 --> 00:30:51.150
and I'm not saying it's right. I'm not saying

00:30:51.150 --> 00:30:53.269
it's wrong. I'm just saying that this is how

00:30:53.269 --> 00:30:57.519
it looks. is that you're just adults that are

00:30:57.519 --> 00:31:01.660
at this place for kids getting annoyed that there's

00:31:01.660 --> 00:31:05.720
kids at this place for kids. And no matter which

00:31:05.720 --> 00:31:08.980
way you slice it, Disney is expensive. I think

00:31:08.980 --> 00:31:11.240
we've brought it up like three times now where

00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:14.539
we've done an updated cost breakdown on how much

00:31:14.539 --> 00:31:19.099
you're spending to have fun at Disney World or

00:31:19.099 --> 00:31:24.700
Disneyland. And so I think that... That's also

00:31:24.700 --> 00:31:26.599
something that you're going to see the people,

00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:30.900
the Disney adults, there more prevalently because

00:31:30.900 --> 00:31:33.140
it's not as expensive for them to go versus an

00:31:33.140 --> 00:31:35.319
entire family to go over and over and over again.

00:31:35.799 --> 00:31:39.099
My problem isn't with families. It's not even

00:31:39.099 --> 00:31:42.400
with Disney adults that can keep it within reason.

00:31:43.440 --> 00:31:47.980
If this is you for a week out of the year, cool.

00:31:48.880 --> 00:31:51.660
Great. There's stuff I do a week out of the year.

00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:55.099
That is just like, it's like my vacation. Fine.

00:31:56.079 --> 00:32:00.119
But when every aspect of your life has to revolve

00:32:00.119 --> 00:32:03.579
around Disney, that's when it's a sickness. And

00:32:03.579 --> 00:32:06.599
that's when you need someone to step in and take

00:32:06.599 --> 00:32:12.720
your hand and say, hey, cut it out. So I have

00:32:12.720 --> 00:32:14.359
this like mentioned a little bit later in my

00:32:14.359 --> 00:32:16.640
notes, but the reason that I think that Disney

00:32:16.640 --> 00:32:20.180
adults are not as bad as a lot of people seem

00:32:20.180 --> 00:32:23.900
to think that they are. Is because the problem,

00:32:24.180 --> 00:32:27.660
like the people that you see online, the quote

00:32:27.660 --> 00:32:30.740
unquote Disney adults are the loudest minority.

00:32:31.839 --> 00:32:37.019
So it's not necessarily that like this is everyone

00:32:37.019 --> 00:32:40.019
or honestly a lot of Disney adults. But the problem

00:32:40.019 --> 00:32:43.039
is that the people that go to the parks, these

00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:46.079
obnoxious people have just like main character

00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:48.309
syndrome. They believe that they are somehow

00:32:48.309 --> 00:32:49.930
more important than everybody else that's at

00:32:49.930 --> 00:32:52.990
the park. And because it is expensive, a lot

00:32:52.990 --> 00:32:55.109
of people adopt this mentality that like my vacation

00:32:55.109 --> 00:32:57.029
is more important than your vacation. Like it's

00:32:57.029 --> 00:32:59.170
not expensive for everybody to be there. Like

00:32:59.170 --> 00:33:01.470
it's not some kind of like treat for everybody

00:33:01.470 --> 00:33:05.250
to go. And so the problem with the parks for

00:33:05.250 --> 00:33:08.869
me is that so many people go under the impression

00:33:08.869 --> 00:33:11.569
that like I am somehow more important than everybody

00:33:11.569 --> 00:33:15.609
else here. With or without kids and those people.

00:33:16.970 --> 00:33:20.910
are the worst yeah yeah i mean that's how it's

00:33:20.910 --> 00:33:24.069
going to be with any subsection of society is

00:33:24.069 --> 00:33:26.190
that the ones that you're going to hear about

00:33:26.190 --> 00:33:30.529
are the ones that uh are the loudest and the

00:33:30.529 --> 00:33:32.789
most annoying yeah those are the ones that are

00:33:32.789 --> 00:33:35.650
going to grab people's attention right like uh

00:33:35.650 --> 00:33:39.170
i mean i don't even know if i can tread into

00:33:39.170 --> 00:33:45.069
this water but there is a person a social media

00:33:45.069 --> 00:33:49.579
person Yeah. I had them in my notes as well.

00:33:49.759 --> 00:33:51.319
Oh, okay. All right. I'm going to let you take

00:33:51.319 --> 00:33:58.140
that one then. I think that so much of the grievances

00:33:58.140 --> 00:33:59.839
that I have with Lily Tino specifically have

00:33:59.839 --> 00:34:02.900
nothing to do with them being a Disney adult.

00:34:03.480 --> 00:34:07.980
My grievances with Lily Tino is not being a Disney

00:34:07.980 --> 00:34:12.079
adult. It is that you, in so many cases, just

00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:13.860
fundamentally misunderstand that this is still

00:34:13.860 --> 00:34:16.860
for children. Yes. Like you are absolutely able

00:34:16.860 --> 00:34:19.840
to enjoy the parks and you should, if that is

00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:24.239
your prerogative until you decide that children

00:34:24.239 --> 00:34:26.699
shouldn't be able to enjoy what children like

00:34:26.699 --> 00:34:28.800
childhood, they shouldn't be able to enjoy childhood

00:34:28.800 --> 00:34:33.579
because you have a bigger message or you have

00:34:33.579 --> 00:34:35.599
a point to prove that is somehow more important

00:34:35.599 --> 00:34:38.880
than these kids being kids. From an armchair

00:34:38.880 --> 00:34:41.449
psychologist point of view. Because I didn't

00:34:41.449 --> 00:34:44.349
know when I was going to work this in, but now

00:34:44.349 --> 00:34:47.469
seems like the appropriate time. I can see that

00:34:47.469 --> 00:34:52.230
maybe a lot of the Disney adult mentality comes

00:34:52.230 --> 00:34:57.250
from people who felt like they didn't get to

00:34:57.250 --> 00:35:00.309
experience a childhood for one reason or another.

00:35:00.670 --> 00:35:04.650
I know that, especially for people in our age

00:35:04.650 --> 00:35:10.070
demographic, like the ultimate vacation. You

00:35:10.070 --> 00:35:13.769
didn't have a real vacation until you went to

00:35:13.769 --> 00:35:17.829
Disneyland or Disney World. Sure. And so maybe

00:35:17.829 --> 00:35:21.869
there's a group of people that felt like they

00:35:21.869 --> 00:35:24.849
missed out on that. And so now they think that

00:35:24.849 --> 00:35:28.030
they can just do it and get the same warm and

00:35:28.030 --> 00:35:31.190
fuzzies from it. Right. Even though they're full

00:35:31.190 --> 00:35:35.389
grown adults now with rent and car payments and

00:35:35.389 --> 00:35:38.690
have to pay for their insurance. Yeah. I have.

00:35:39.500 --> 00:35:41.980
A lot of thoughts when it comes to Lily, Lily

00:35:41.980 --> 00:35:44.639
Tino, which have been brought in on a couple

00:35:44.639 --> 00:35:49.360
of our episodes, I think, but it's so, it feels

00:35:49.360 --> 00:35:54.000
so manufactured. So much of it feels like the

00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:57.900
entire point is just to speak badly about the

00:35:57.900 --> 00:36:00.320
community that they are claiming to be a part

00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:04.440
of. Yeah. Because like the, if you ever look

00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:07.440
in the comments on a Lily Tino video, The vast

00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:10.340
majority of them are members of either the same

00:36:10.340 --> 00:36:12.019
or similar communities that are talking about

00:36:12.019 --> 00:36:16.000
how awful. How detrimental. She is. She is to

00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:18.920
the rest of them. Right. Because, like, it's

00:36:18.920 --> 00:36:23.579
not... Lily Tino projects the entire trans community

00:36:23.579 --> 00:36:27.360
as the people who would have conversations about

00:36:27.360 --> 00:36:29.239
getting a sex change in front of children at

00:36:29.239 --> 00:36:31.260
Disney World. Take pictures in the Disney World

00:36:31.260 --> 00:36:33.599
bathrooms. Using a corndog for a representation.

00:36:34.179 --> 00:36:37.199
Or a marshmallow wand. Yeah. Are you going to

00:36:37.199 --> 00:36:39.119
jump into the deep end with us? I'm just taking

00:36:39.119 --> 00:36:40.860
it all in. We're just going to sit on the sidelines.

00:36:42.340 --> 00:36:45.539
Yeah. I mean, that goes along with people trying

00:36:45.539 --> 00:36:47.500
to allow those kind of books into classrooms.

00:36:48.219 --> 00:36:52.840
There's not a place for it. Yeah. Yeah. So I

00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:54.420
think there's a time and place for those kind

00:36:54.420 --> 00:36:57.280
of conversations, but Disney World's probably

00:36:57.280 --> 00:37:01.320
not one of those places either. I think if you're

00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:04.869
doing it... for shock value and not to have an

00:37:04.869 --> 00:37:07.230
actual constructive conversation you have no

00:37:07.230 --> 00:37:11.869
place here no and it that is what it is for yeah

00:37:11.869 --> 00:37:18.070
and the the whole disney world shtick is for

00:37:18.070 --> 00:37:26.030
trolling knowing that there is a lot of public

00:37:26.030 --> 00:37:31.650
debate about what should and shouldn't be around

00:37:32.269 --> 00:37:34.829
children like what however you feel about it

00:37:34.829 --> 00:37:37.750
if you're for it or you're against it the debate

00:37:37.750 --> 00:37:40.750
is there and so you just want to piggyback on

00:37:40.750 --> 00:37:44.710
that by inserting yourself into a place that

00:37:44.710 --> 00:37:48.469
is meant for children and trying to stir up as

00:37:48.469 --> 00:37:51.429
much controversy as many views and as much people

00:37:51.429 --> 00:37:54.530
talking about you as possible so much so that

00:37:54.530 --> 00:37:57.909
you're taking pictures in the bathroom and the

00:37:57.909 --> 00:38:04.019
fact that It crossed this person's mind to do

00:38:04.019 --> 00:38:09.599
a whole series on what the best women's bathrooms

00:38:09.599 --> 00:38:13.559
are to use at Disney as a trans person. Shows

00:38:13.559 --> 00:38:16.619
that the only purpose you have in this whole

00:38:16.619 --> 00:38:18.760
thing is just to troll people because you know

00:38:18.760 --> 00:38:20.900
that you're going to activate people. You know

00:38:20.900 --> 00:38:22.760
people are going to be pissed. You got what you

00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:25.840
wanted out of it. But then now you got, I mean,

00:38:25.840 --> 00:38:28.260
Florida is not a state that I would mess with

00:38:28.260 --> 00:38:32.360
doing that kind of stuff. I mean, I think that

00:38:32.360 --> 00:38:36.039
a lot of that specific situation too is just

00:38:36.039 --> 00:38:40.260
that it kind of originated as a way to build

00:38:40.260 --> 00:38:44.800
up a GoFundMe to fund her trips to Disney. What

00:38:44.800 --> 00:38:50.019
did? So like the waiter videos and stuff, there

00:38:50.019 --> 00:38:53.940
ended up being a fund. There ended up being a

00:38:53.940 --> 00:38:58.500
fund, like something between Kickstarter and...

00:38:58.780 --> 00:39:01.579
GoFundMe. I don't remember. But essentially people

00:39:01.579 --> 00:39:05.179
would just be paying to support her. And so she

00:39:05.179 --> 00:39:07.559
ended up using that money to go to Disney to

00:39:07.559 --> 00:39:11.559
make those videos. So it was just a desperate

00:39:11.559 --> 00:39:14.360
cash grab that is a slap in the face to actual

00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:18.440
members of that community. That person is definitely

00:39:18.440 --> 00:39:24.340
a pockmark on Disney adults. I think the trans

00:39:24.340 --> 00:39:28.179
community at large. Just the whole thing. And

00:39:28.179 --> 00:39:34.559
it's the same with Dylan Mulvaney. Yeah. Yeah.

00:39:35.260 --> 00:39:38.579
These people that get big, it's what they want,

00:39:38.659 --> 00:39:41.400
and then they're throwing the rest of their entire

00:39:41.400 --> 00:39:46.780
community down the river. Peter Dinklage. Yeah.

00:39:47.019 --> 00:39:50.559
Screw Peter Dinklage. Closing that tiny door

00:39:50.559 --> 00:40:00.059
behind him. Oh. Oh. So. What are telltale signs

00:40:00.059 --> 00:40:03.760
of a Disney adult? Could you pick one out of

00:40:03.760 --> 00:40:10.400
the crowd? Yeah. I think if you have Disney tattoos,

00:40:10.500 --> 00:40:16.019
and before I get too deep in the weeds on this

00:40:16.019 --> 00:40:18.920
one, I had an existential crisis when I was doing

00:40:18.920 --> 00:40:21.079
the research for this episode because I don't

00:40:21.079 --> 00:40:24.320
know if I have a Disney tattoo. For those of

00:40:24.320 --> 00:40:27.980
you listening, I have a... Homer Simpson, Mr.

00:40:28.099 --> 00:40:31.900
Sparkle tattoo on my leg. Now that The Simpsons

00:40:31.900 --> 00:40:34.400
is owned by Disney, do I have a Disney tattoo?

00:40:34.639 --> 00:40:38.340
No. Why? No. Because there's a big difference

00:40:38.340 --> 00:40:43.340
between you having an image of Homer from a television

00:40:43.340 --> 00:40:47.599
show meant for adults versus a person your age

00:40:47.599 --> 00:40:53.099
having a picture of Ariel right above her ass

00:40:53.099 --> 00:41:02.969
crack. Ouch. Oops. This is my second podcast,

00:41:03.030 --> 00:41:04.849
so I'm a little new to all the things and the

00:41:04.849 --> 00:41:09.809
sounds. The pops and clicks. But no, I mean.

00:41:09.929 --> 00:41:16.230
I'm sorry. I have to touch on aerial tramp stamp.

00:41:16.389 --> 00:41:18.510
The ass crack? You have to touch on the ass crack?

00:41:19.510 --> 00:41:22.510
Aerial tramp stamp. I'm sure it's been done.

00:41:23.500 --> 00:41:26.420
Maybe if you are out there listening. Maybe she's

00:41:26.420 --> 00:41:28.599
like swimming through it. No. Like a crevice.

00:41:28.619 --> 00:41:31.460
Like a crevice in the ocean. If you have a Disney

00:41:31.460 --> 00:41:35.619
tattoo, send it to one of the social media pages.

00:41:36.079 --> 00:41:38.960
Unless it's a tramp stamp. No, send those too.

00:41:40.219 --> 00:41:42.800
CashExchangePod on Instagram. CashExchangePod

00:41:42.800 --> 00:41:49.980
on TikTok. CashExchangePod at gmail .com. Soon

00:41:49.980 --> 00:41:51.519
to have a P .O. box maybe. Soon to have a P .O.

00:41:51.539 --> 00:41:59.179
box. Send us stuff, please. Please. But no. So

00:41:59.179 --> 00:42:01.699
I'm going to get a Milhouse, and that tattoo's

00:42:01.699 --> 00:42:04.119
going to have meaning behind it. Sure. And it's

00:42:04.119 --> 00:42:06.739
from something that is for adults. Sure. Maybe

00:42:06.739 --> 00:42:12.460
not adults, but older than childhood. Not necessarily.

00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:15.280
We were kids when we got into The Simpsons. We

00:42:15.280 --> 00:42:18.409
shouldn't have. Yeah, I mean, it wasn't that

00:42:18.409 --> 00:42:21.289
bad. I mean, it's nothing compared to what is

00:42:21.289 --> 00:42:25.309
available now. But it was a family guy of its

00:42:25.309 --> 00:42:27.269
time. I also watched a lot of Family Guy when

00:42:27.269 --> 00:42:29.230
I was younger, which honestly might say something

00:42:29.230 --> 00:42:35.610
about me. So, no, I mean, like if it's the silhouette

00:42:35.610 --> 00:42:38.869
of the Snow White apple above your... Isn't that

00:42:38.869 --> 00:42:41.690
just a regular apple? ...ankle. I don't know.

00:42:41.750 --> 00:42:43.230
I mean, I'm sure there's some sort of design.

00:42:43.349 --> 00:42:46.050
You're like, oh, that's from Snow White. I don't

00:42:46.050 --> 00:42:50.050
know. Or a silhouette of a Disney princess. The

00:42:50.050 --> 00:42:52.070
Mickey ears? The Mickey ears are the ones that

00:42:52.070 --> 00:42:56.190
get me. I don't like Mickey ear tattoos. No.

00:42:56.869 --> 00:43:00.429
I don't like Mickey ear tattoos. I'm fine with

00:43:00.429 --> 00:43:02.909
the actual ears. I just think they look dumb

00:43:02.909 --> 00:43:04.690
as tattoos. I really wish I would have brought

00:43:04.690 --> 00:43:10.289
my Mickey ears. But no, I wholeheartedly agree.

00:43:10.409 --> 00:43:12.309
That is number one on my list on how you can

00:43:12.309 --> 00:43:14.420
find one. How you can pick them out of the crowd.

00:43:14.619 --> 00:43:16.760
Spot a Disney adult in the wild. Yeah. They're

00:43:16.760 --> 00:43:21.280
either going to have a character or a quote that

00:43:21.280 --> 00:43:24.320
has no meaning besides shouting to the world,

00:43:24.360 --> 00:43:30.760
hey, I like Disney. Okay. Number two on my list.

00:43:30.940 --> 00:43:34.539
You plan multiple trips to Disney a year, either

00:43:34.539 --> 00:43:38.460
Disneyland or Disney World. Income depending.

00:43:39.119 --> 00:43:43.579
I think that if you are not a millionaire, if

00:43:43.579 --> 00:43:47.699
you have to set aside money every month until

00:43:47.699 --> 00:43:50.599
your trip to go to Disney World, and then as

00:43:50.599 --> 00:43:52.659
soon as you get back, you start it all over again,

00:43:52.880 --> 00:43:57.300
I think that it's a sign of a Disney adult. I'm

00:43:57.300 --> 00:43:58.420
not saying it's right, I'm not saying it's wrong.

00:43:58.539 --> 00:44:00.460
If that's going to be your vacation for the year,

00:44:00.659 --> 00:44:04.719
more power to you. But you are a Disney adult.

00:44:05.340 --> 00:44:08.730
I touched on this in... one of the past episodes,

00:44:08.929 --> 00:44:11.809
but I would personally love to go to Disney at

00:44:11.809 --> 00:44:15.909
some point, even as a childless adult. But the

00:44:15.909 --> 00:44:19.989
thing that I think ruins the idea of a Disney

00:44:19.989 --> 00:44:23.769
vacation for me is that I'm just not willing

00:44:23.769 --> 00:44:27.190
to spend that much money. I am not willing to

00:44:27.190 --> 00:44:30.809
plan that hard because I see I'm on that side

00:44:30.809 --> 00:44:32.769
of TikTok. Good thing or bad thing is debatable,

00:44:32.849 --> 00:44:35.400
but. Every once in a while, I'll see, like, these

00:44:35.400 --> 00:44:37.199
are budget hacks, and this is where you need

00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:41.159
to go expressly to be able to eat at Disney for

00:44:41.159 --> 00:44:44.139
this family every single day. Like, that is too

00:44:44.139 --> 00:44:47.119
strict. I am not going to enjoy my vacation personally

00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:51.579
if I have to make sure that I eat the beignets

00:44:51.579 --> 00:44:55.119
at Tiana's place, but I can't drink there because

00:44:55.119 --> 00:44:57.460
the drinks there are too expensive. And I can

00:44:57.460 --> 00:45:01.139
only get the drinks at Epcot from... the Mexico

00:45:01.139 --> 00:45:03.340
area because those drinks are better than the

00:45:03.340 --> 00:45:05.440
ones in like the Asian area. I don't know. It's

00:45:05.440 --> 00:45:10.739
a, it's so specific that it just sounds more

00:45:10.739 --> 00:45:14.340
exhausting than it's worth. Well, I like to plan

00:45:14.340 --> 00:45:16.940
out stuff like that. That's fine. See, I got

00:45:16.940 --> 00:45:19.719
my built in. Yeah. Playing right here. I guess

00:45:19.719 --> 00:45:22.699
she can't come with us then. I mean, what if

00:45:22.699 --> 00:45:24.119
she planned it? Would you be fine with that?

00:45:24.420 --> 00:45:26.900
Yeah. If all that was taken off of you? Sure.

00:45:26.960 --> 00:45:32.639
Yeah. Okay. There you go. But, if i didn't have

00:45:32.639 --> 00:45:36.320
kids i would be perfectly fine never going to

00:45:36.320 --> 00:45:38.380
disney world again sure never going to disneyland

00:45:38.380 --> 00:45:41.679
last time i was there was the summer between

00:45:41.679 --> 00:45:44.579
sophomore and senior year no junior and senior

00:45:44.579 --> 00:45:49.079
year and no sophomore junior year there we go

00:45:49.079 --> 00:45:55.039
and i have real real terrible blackberry pearl

00:45:55.039 --> 00:45:59.519
pictures from that experience and i would be

00:45:59.519 --> 00:46:02.500
fine if that was my experience at Disney World.

00:46:02.880 --> 00:46:06.519
But that still kind of ties back into the if

00:46:06.519 --> 00:46:08.119
it was a part of your childhood kind of thing

00:46:08.119 --> 00:46:10.579
then it's different as an adult. I never went

00:46:10.579 --> 00:46:12.139
to Disney as a kid and so I would like to be

00:46:12.139 --> 00:46:14.820
able to see it once. I don't think that I would

00:46:14.820 --> 00:46:18.179
ever want to make it a regular rotation thing

00:46:18.179 --> 00:46:21.380
because I don't go to a lot of things that are

00:46:21.380 --> 00:46:25.000
that kind of family friendly. Because like some

00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:27.260
things I believe that some things aren't for

00:46:27.260 --> 00:46:29.099
me and I think that that's one of those things.

00:46:29.380 --> 00:46:33.960
And that is okay. That is okay. If you are too

00:46:33.960 --> 00:46:41.039
fat to ride the ride, that is okay. If you don't

00:46:41.039 --> 00:46:42.960
like it, then do something about it to where

00:46:42.960 --> 00:46:47.440
you do fit into it. Am I supposed to find a Zoltar

00:46:47.440 --> 00:46:50.139
machine so I can go backwards like big? Or what

00:46:50.139 --> 00:46:53.500
do I do to fit into those boxes? No, I went to

00:46:53.500 --> 00:46:57.980
Disney World as a kid, I think two or three times.

00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:02.820
And there's only... So much that I remember from

00:47:02.820 --> 00:47:05.760
that. And so it was kind of nice to go again

00:47:05.760 --> 00:47:09.219
as an adult. Because I couldn't really remember

00:47:09.219 --> 00:47:14.920
a whole lot. Yeah? Yeah. Did you enjoy it as

00:47:14.920 --> 00:47:18.619
much as an adult? Yeah. Yeah? It was pretty great.

00:47:19.199 --> 00:47:23.000
I went with my parents and I was probably 25,

00:47:23.480 --> 00:47:28.619
26 years old. Okay. It's okay. I mean, I'd be

00:47:28.619 --> 00:47:30.699
willing to try it. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't know.

00:47:30.800 --> 00:47:35.380
I had a blast. But from where I sit right now,

00:47:35.539 --> 00:47:38.440
I'd be perfectly fine not going. How much the

00:47:38.440 --> 00:47:41.360
kids would enjoy it, so I'd like to go. But it'd

00:47:41.360 --> 00:47:43.780
also be extremely difficult to justify the price

00:47:43.780 --> 00:47:47.000
tag. I think it would be a great thing to do

00:47:47.000 --> 00:47:50.840
so long as you understand where you are. The

00:47:50.840 --> 00:47:53.639
whole thing is just, as long as you're enjoying

00:47:53.639 --> 00:47:57.639
this experience as an adult at the park and not...

00:47:57.849 --> 00:48:00.829
As a person trying to either reclaim their youth

00:48:00.829 --> 00:48:03.309
because this is a thing that their childhood

00:48:03.309 --> 00:48:05.889
was built out of or be kids again because they

00:48:05.889 --> 00:48:07.329
didn't have a childhood the first go around.

00:48:07.489 --> 00:48:10.190
If you put all of those expectations on it, you

00:48:10.190 --> 00:48:13.650
just will not be, you won't have fun and you

00:48:13.650 --> 00:48:17.630
won't be pleasant to be around. No, I completely

00:48:17.630 --> 00:48:20.469
agree. So I think if you're going into it for

00:48:20.469 --> 00:48:24.730
the right reasons, then go for it. Yeah. Next

00:48:24.730 --> 00:48:29.179
one I have is. Do you have a favorite ride? And

00:48:29.179 --> 00:48:34.260
you can talk about it forever. If I am on the...

00:48:34.260 --> 00:48:38.659
If I'm in line for the Haunted Mansion and I

00:48:38.659 --> 00:48:43.460
hear a conversation behind me about something

00:48:43.460 --> 00:48:47.260
that is not on full display, nothing that I can

00:48:47.260 --> 00:48:51.360
just draw context clues from seeing from my surroundings,

00:48:51.599 --> 00:48:53.880
then I'm going to know that the person talking

00:48:53.880 --> 00:48:57.980
is a Disney adult. Okay. If I overhear you saying,

00:48:58.019 --> 00:49:01.760
well, actually, the hatbox ghost used to be two

00:49:01.760 --> 00:49:06.519
feet to the right on opening day. I don't know

00:49:06.519 --> 00:49:08.320
if that's a hill you want to die on because I

00:49:08.320 --> 00:49:10.760
know you and I both can do that with a lot of

00:49:10.760 --> 00:49:14.139
things. And that brings me to my blanket statement.

00:49:14.679 --> 00:49:18.760
That is okay. I'm not saying it's bad for you

00:49:18.760 --> 00:49:21.099
to be a Disney adult. I'm saying that I can judge

00:49:21.099 --> 00:49:24.539
you. And you can judge me. Yeah? Okay. And we

00:49:24.539 --> 00:49:28.880
can still coexist in this world and live fulfilling

00:49:28.880 --> 00:49:31.800
lives. Have you ever seen the coexist bumper

00:49:31.800 --> 00:49:34.780
stickers that are made of Disney symbols? Oh.

00:49:34.940 --> 00:49:38.300
I would punch them in the face. Just not for

00:49:38.300 --> 00:49:43.900
any political or religious reasons. Yeah. Just,

00:49:43.940 --> 00:49:49.539
I hate bumper stickers. I hate them. My bumper

00:49:49.539 --> 00:49:54.349
sticker is awesome. What is it? It's Bobby Hill,

00:49:54.489 --> 00:49:56.829
but it's Barbie. Okay, that's fine. Is it the

00:49:56.829 --> 00:49:59.949
same one you have on your fridge? Yeah. Slogans.

00:50:00.909 --> 00:50:04.510
Those long rectangular ones. My other car is

00:50:04.510 --> 00:50:09.989
your mom. Yeah. Yeah, and like today we passed

00:50:09.989 --> 00:50:13.570
one that said, too blessed to be stressed. Okay,

00:50:14.150 --> 00:50:18.010
but why? Why do you need to show that to the

00:50:18.010 --> 00:50:22.530
world? Just be so blessed that you are not stressed.

00:50:23.050 --> 00:50:32.510
What about tuna shamed? What? There is a Christian

00:50:32.510 --> 00:50:35.230
bumper sticker and it says unashamed, but right

00:50:35.230 --> 00:50:38.650
beside it, it has a cross. And so it just looks

00:50:38.650 --> 00:50:44.269
like it says tuna shamed. Arguably the best bumper

00:50:44.269 --> 00:50:50.090
sticker ever made. Or like if you see. Romney

00:50:50.090 --> 00:50:57.469
08. Why? Why? I'm still holding on to it. Take

00:50:57.469 --> 00:51:00.730
it off. Don't put a political bumper sticker

00:51:00.730 --> 00:51:04.329
on your car anyways in today's climate. But definitely

00:51:04.329 --> 00:51:09.070
take it off after he loses. Especially if he

00:51:09.070 --> 00:51:12.030
loses. Take it off if he wins. After that term

00:51:12.030 --> 00:51:15.849
is over, if Mitt Romney had won in 08, 2012,

00:51:16.250 --> 00:51:21.190
boom, it's gone. There are... So many in the

00:51:21.190 --> 00:51:24.329
city of Austin. Bumper stickers of either Bernie

00:51:24.329 --> 00:51:27.610
Sanders. Lots of Bernie Sanders. Lots of Clinton.

00:51:28.469 --> 00:51:32.469
R .I .P. Hillary, not Bill. I don't think any

00:51:32.469 --> 00:51:34.170
of the cars are old enough to have a... Who are

00:51:34.170 --> 00:51:40.170
you ripping? The campaign. Oh. Oh, okay. I thought

00:51:40.170 --> 00:51:44.750
you had some insider information. R .I .P. Hillary,

00:51:44.909 --> 00:51:50.179
not Bill. Yeah, no. There are campaign bumper

00:51:50.179 --> 00:51:55.539
stickers for Hillary, for Bernie, for O 'Rourke.

00:51:58.199 --> 00:52:04.739
And then you have the four -wheeled bumper stickers,

00:52:04.880 --> 00:52:08.920
the Cybertrucks. Hold on. Did you just... It's

00:52:08.920 --> 00:52:16.199
O 'Rourke. You're pro Cancun cruise. I can be

00:52:16.199 --> 00:52:19.099
against someone and not be for the other one.

00:52:20.860 --> 00:52:29.420
I think that Ted Cruz is Grandpa Munster. Reincarnate.

00:52:29.820 --> 00:52:33.159
Okay. And possibly the Zodiac. I believe he's

00:52:33.159 --> 00:52:34.400
the Zodiac killer. We don't know how many times

00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:36.900
he's reincarnated. Speaking of bumper stickers,

00:52:37.059 --> 00:52:38.780
though, I definitely want the Ted Cruz one that

00:52:38.780 --> 00:52:46.659
says this man ate my son. Oh. Especially because

00:52:46.659 --> 00:52:50.980
he lives not too far from here. So, we went from,

00:52:50.980 --> 00:52:54.340
are you left, right, or center? Well, this isn't

00:52:54.340 --> 00:52:58.320
a political podcast. To, you're for Ted Cruz?

00:52:59.179 --> 00:53:01.840
I'm, for the record, this is not a partisan issue.

00:53:01.920 --> 00:53:05.679
I just hate that man. That's not left, right,

00:53:05.699 --> 00:53:07.900
or center. He just sucks. He was just going to

00:53:07.900 --> 00:53:11.059
enjoy vacation while everybody else was freezing

00:53:11.059 --> 00:53:14.760
cold and, you know, icing over. Did the same

00:53:14.760 --> 00:53:18.199
thing with the floods, yeah. You can't... What's

00:53:18.199 --> 00:53:20.500
he going to do? Is Cancun going to be there the

00:53:20.500 --> 00:53:24.559
week after? Maybe, maybe not. What if they get

00:53:24.559 --> 00:53:27.380
flooded too? He doesn't believe in global warming,

00:53:27.480 --> 00:53:33.519
so it's fine. Just for the record, I don't like

00:53:33.519 --> 00:53:38.260
the man either. That man ate my son. I don't

00:53:38.260 --> 00:53:41.699
even know what the... I know it was something

00:53:41.699 --> 00:53:44.519
from his campaign. I honestly don't remember.

00:53:44.619 --> 00:53:48.440
I just think it's funny. I don't remember the

00:53:48.440 --> 00:53:52.219
specific context for it. One of my favorite cruisisms

00:53:52.219 --> 00:53:58.039
is that Trump called his wife a dog. Your wife's

00:53:58.039 --> 00:54:01.599
a dog. And then after that, yeah. You gotta do

00:54:01.599 --> 00:54:07.219
the hands. He's very huge. Your wife's a huge

00:54:07.219 --> 00:54:13.500
dog. I'm sorry, what? Did not hear dog. You hear

00:54:13.500 --> 00:54:15.440
dong? It did. Your wife's got a huge dog. No,

00:54:15.500 --> 00:54:18.539
that's what he's talking about in Michelle. Damn.

00:54:19.739 --> 00:54:30.940
Yep. Waka waka. Oh, man. No. Yes. And then after

00:54:30.940 --> 00:54:36.639
that, just... Senator Cruz, so President Trump

00:54:36.639 --> 00:54:41.340
called your wife a huge dog. How do you feel

00:54:41.340 --> 00:54:45.440
about that? You know, it's just, it's campaigning.

00:54:45.579 --> 00:54:48.380
You know, you say things. You try to get in the

00:54:48.380 --> 00:54:50.599
other one's head. We've moved past it, and now

00:54:50.599 --> 00:54:56.619
we're just ready to MAGA. Or MAHA. That's my

00:54:56.619 --> 00:55:01.719
favorite one. No matter how you feel about Trump

00:55:01.719 --> 00:55:05.400
and RFK Jr. and everything that's going on, the

00:55:05.400 --> 00:55:08.360
fact that they went with MAHA. I was about to

00:55:08.360 --> 00:55:10.760
say, does Amanda Bynes get residuals every time

00:55:10.760 --> 00:55:13.420
they say it? She needs it. She needs it so she

00:55:13.420 --> 00:55:16.460
can finally pass her cosmetology class. She's

00:55:16.460 --> 00:55:18.119
got a thriving nail business whether or not she

00:55:18.119 --> 00:55:21.599
passes. Yeah. I'm going to get my nails done

00:55:21.599 --> 00:55:23.639
by her. I would just feel a little safer if the

00:55:23.639 --> 00:55:25.699
state came in and said, yeah, this woman is sane

00:55:25.699 --> 00:55:29.239
enough to do your nail. The state's already done

00:55:29.239 --> 00:55:34.239
too many things to Amanda Bynes. Let her live.

00:55:36.519 --> 00:55:38.820
Do you have any other descriptors of a Disney

00:55:38.820 --> 00:55:45.719
adult? Decor. Decor? Yeah. Decorating your house

00:55:45.719 --> 00:55:53.619
with toys and things and stuff. Yeah? Yeah. I'd

00:55:53.619 --> 00:55:57.699
said before that the Simpsons don't really count.

00:55:57.860 --> 00:56:02.599
They were just an acquisition. They weren't part

00:56:02.599 --> 00:56:07.269
of Disney. From the beginning. And so they're

00:56:07.269 --> 00:56:13.789
kind of, they're an exception. Okay. What I don't

00:56:13.789 --> 00:56:16.949
think, even though it came in afterwards, it

00:56:16.949 --> 00:56:20.789
is the same caliber of person, are the Marvel

00:56:20.789 --> 00:56:24.170
Star Wars people. So you think they're Disney

00:56:24.170 --> 00:56:27.510
adults but Simpsons people, aren't? Yes. Okay.

00:56:28.090 --> 00:56:34.230
Why? Hmm. Because I think that, I don't really

00:56:34.230 --> 00:56:36.239
know why. Maybe this is bias coming through.

00:56:36.380 --> 00:56:39.840
In fact, it probably is. I think it is. So maybe

00:56:39.840 --> 00:56:43.639
I'm a Simpsons adult. And that is okay. I think

00:56:43.639 --> 00:56:45.599
you're a Disney adult. I'm not a Disney adult.

00:56:46.460 --> 00:56:48.739
Don't you dare. I think you're a Disney adult.

00:56:48.840 --> 00:56:55.980
You're also... Okay. We used to watch Disney

00:56:55.980 --> 00:57:00.639
hack YouTube videos. Mm -hmm. Yeah, all the time.

00:57:01.260 --> 00:57:04.769
Yeah, but that's... To try to get the kids to

00:57:04.769 --> 00:57:08.289
Disney. That wasn't just because, oh, this is

00:57:08.289 --> 00:57:11.289
just, ooh, I love this. It was just practical.

00:57:11.769 --> 00:57:18.530
Yeah. Okay. Would you describe yourself as a

00:57:18.530 --> 00:57:20.769
Disney adult? Yes, but I also don't think it's

00:57:20.769 --> 00:57:23.130
a bad thing. To an extent. I don't, I'm not going

00:57:23.130 --> 00:57:26.949
to be, I'm not saving up to go to the parks.

00:57:27.730 --> 00:57:30.389
If I did go to the parks, I'm not trying to.

00:57:31.199 --> 00:57:33.280
shove the kids out of the way so that i get to

00:57:33.280 --> 00:57:38.599
meet cinderella oh like it's i don't think that

00:57:38.599 --> 00:57:43.260
i'm the kind of disney adult that a lot of this

00:57:43.260 --> 00:57:45.699
conversation revolves around but i do think that

00:57:45.699 --> 00:57:48.699
i'm a disney adult because i do love a lot of

00:57:48.699 --> 00:57:53.380
disney's ip okay i don't make it my personality

00:57:53.380 --> 00:57:57.900
which might be the dividing line but okay yeah

00:57:57.900 --> 00:58:00.750
i mean yeah I think the dividing line is the

00:58:00.750 --> 00:58:07.090
personality. Okay. And another thing is that

00:58:07.090 --> 00:58:11.010
Disney adult, what I'm describing as a Disney

00:58:11.010 --> 00:58:19.969
adult, cannot admit when a property is ass. They

00:58:19.969 --> 00:58:22.469
give a pass to everything just for the fact that

00:58:22.469 --> 00:58:26.449
it is Disney. So I can't tell you the last time

00:58:26.449 --> 00:58:30.469
that I saw... something from disney was like

00:58:30.469 --> 00:58:33.869
huh that's pretty good but i can sure tell you

00:58:33.869 --> 00:58:35.869
the last time i saw something from disney i was

00:58:35.869 --> 00:58:39.969
like that was dumb yeah that was awful they'd

00:58:39.969 --> 00:58:44.250
either tried too hard to push a message or it

00:58:44.250 --> 00:58:50.929
just was clinging on so tightly to previous work

00:58:50.929 --> 00:58:54.469
that it just it was completely unenjoyable like

00:58:54.469 --> 00:58:58.519
moana 2 moana 2 sucked yeah But the first one

00:58:58.519 --> 00:59:02.099
was great. What else have we seen recently? We

00:59:02.099 --> 00:59:06.920
haven't seen it yet. I do find it very funny

00:59:06.920 --> 00:59:10.360
that the whole, and again, this is just what

00:59:10.360 --> 00:59:12.559
I have heard because I haven't seen it for myself,

00:59:12.760 --> 00:59:17.460
but the whole of the original animation, the

00:59:17.460 --> 00:59:20.300
entire point is that it doesn't matter where

00:59:20.300 --> 00:59:22.980
you come from, you're family, and family is most

00:59:22.980 --> 00:59:28.409
important. But then at the end of the live action

00:59:28.409 --> 00:59:32.670
one, she just leaves Lilo with the state and

00:59:32.670 --> 00:59:34.789
then goes off to the mainland to go to school.

00:59:35.210 --> 00:59:38.829
What? That's what I've heard. Yeah, I don't know.

00:59:38.849 --> 00:59:45.829
Yeah. Oh, my God. Spoiler. Good Lord. I think

00:59:45.829 --> 00:59:49.889
people hate on Disney adults for the same reason

00:59:49.889 --> 00:59:52.070
that I hate on prequels, sequels, and reboots.

00:59:52.550 --> 00:59:55.809
Mm -hmm. If a thing is important to you, it can

00:59:55.809 --> 00:59:58.210
still be important to you in the form that it

00:59:58.210 --> 01:00:01.710
existed in to begin with. You can imagine other

01:00:01.710 --> 01:00:03.969
things happening with these characters if that's

01:00:03.969 --> 01:00:08.650
what you choose to do. Blowing all of this money,

01:00:08.750 --> 01:00:13.030
all of these resources on movies that have already

01:00:13.030 --> 01:00:18.030
been done is just lazy nostalgia bait. Like there's

01:00:18.030 --> 01:00:21.130
nothing, if you have nothing new to say, don't

01:00:21.130 --> 01:00:28.710
say anything. Concur. So I think now that we

01:00:28.710 --> 01:00:34.849
gave you some telltale signs of how to pick one

01:00:34.849 --> 01:00:41.489
out of the crowd, what about Disney adults that

01:00:41.489 --> 01:00:47.449
are just looking for love? I had a bit of a rabbit

01:00:47.449 --> 01:00:50.869
hole deep dive on this one. Me too. Did not realize

01:00:50.869 --> 01:00:56.519
that there was not one, not two, but three. Disney

01:00:56.519 --> 01:01:01.619
adult -specific dating apps. Websites. Yes. Yes.

01:01:01.659 --> 01:01:07.860
And only one of them is, I feel like, at least

01:01:07.860 --> 01:01:13.559
there is a positive turn in the use of their

01:01:13.559 --> 01:01:17.360
services. I mean, there isn't use of one of their

01:01:17.360 --> 01:01:18.739
services because it hasn't been launched yet.

01:01:20.239 --> 01:01:23.260
What? I'm not talking about the one that was

01:01:23.260 --> 01:01:26.579
just announced. What three do you have? I have

01:01:26.579 --> 01:01:30.059
Meet Upon Main, Mouse Mingle, and Single Riders.

01:01:30.219 --> 01:01:31.960
Yeah. Meet Upon Main is what I'm talking about.

01:01:32.099 --> 01:01:34.500
Okay. And that one has been launched. I know.

01:01:34.599 --> 01:01:36.920
Yeah. Mouse Mingle. No, I was saying that, like,

01:01:36.920 --> 01:01:40.139
you said one of the three has had a different

01:01:40.139 --> 01:01:42.320
use. The other one doesn't have any uses yet

01:01:42.320 --> 01:01:44.260
because it hasn't been launched. Oh, no. But,

01:01:44.300 --> 01:01:46.360
I mean, the intention, like, they all have the

01:01:46.360 --> 01:01:51.340
same intention. Yeah. They're to get these people

01:01:51.340 --> 01:01:55.920
pooled together. I have a conspiracy. That's

01:01:55.920 --> 01:01:59.039
actually to get these people on a list. A self

01:01:59.039 --> 01:02:03.159
-subscribed list. For what? Don't know. Don't

01:02:03.159 --> 01:02:04.900
know. You could say that about literally anything

01:02:04.900 --> 01:02:07.360
online. It's to get you on a list. But I'm not.

01:02:07.380 --> 01:02:09.579
I'm saying it about this. Yeah? I'm saying it

01:02:09.579 --> 01:02:13.340
about this. You're a big exception to the rule

01:02:13.340 --> 01:02:15.639
kind of person today. Consider my words marked.

01:02:16.760 --> 01:02:22.030
Good lord. I don't know. Maybe. Meet on Main.

01:02:22.130 --> 01:02:24.849
Meet upon Main. Whatever it is. Meet upon Main.

01:02:25.210 --> 01:02:29.130
Like once upon a time? Yeah. But no, it's like

01:02:29.130 --> 01:02:34.989
meet upon Main Street. Yeah. Their quote is,

01:02:35.070 --> 01:02:37.530
where magic begins, whether looking for love

01:02:37.530 --> 01:02:39.949
or a park buddy, we're committed to creating

01:02:39.949 --> 01:02:44.349
a space for all Disney fans to connect. And a

01:02:44.349 --> 01:02:51.739
portion of their proceeds go to... bringing Terminal

01:02:51.739 --> 01:02:55.619
Kids to Disney World. Oh, that's nice. So you

01:02:55.619 --> 01:02:59.980
have to pay to be on this? Yeah. I'm pretty sure

01:02:59.980 --> 01:03:01.880
you have to pay for the other two too. The other

01:03:01.880 --> 01:03:06.519
two as well. What about yours? So I was doing

01:03:06.519 --> 01:03:09.639
a little bit of a TikTok deep dive, which I deeply

01:03:09.639 --> 01:03:12.639
regret because my For You page has changed on

01:03:12.639 --> 01:03:15.219
Single Writers because Single Writers is the

01:03:15.219 --> 01:03:20.019
one that's in its beta test right now. The owner

01:03:20.019 --> 01:03:23.920
and the creator of this app does all of his videos

01:03:23.920 --> 01:03:32.820
in a sully onesie oh see to which why to each

01:03:32.820 --> 01:03:37.380
their own to each their own do you personally

01:03:37.380 --> 01:03:42.599
speaking why why maybe it's just real comfy i

01:03:42.599 --> 01:03:45.400
i feel like it's a choice i don't think to be

01:03:45.400 --> 01:03:47.960
true yeah i don't think that's the only reason

01:03:49.289 --> 01:03:52.630
Go full send. Do the Mickey ears. No. Mickey

01:03:52.630 --> 01:03:55.630
ears, Sully onesie. Mickey ears are very uncomfortable.

01:03:56.150 --> 01:04:00.030
You can't cross -contaminate IPs. Why? Pixar

01:04:00.030 --> 01:04:01.909
is also owned by Disney now, and he's promoting

01:04:01.909 --> 01:04:03.909
a whole Disney... But Sully doesn't have ears.

01:04:04.309 --> 01:04:07.809
If canonically he had put on Mickey ears in one

01:04:07.809 --> 01:04:12.550
of the Monsters movies, then he could, in his

01:04:12.550 --> 01:04:16.210
ads, have Disney ears. He wears the hat, but

01:04:16.210 --> 01:04:19.030
not... Yeah. He's got horns. Couldn't you just

01:04:19.030 --> 01:04:22.010
put horns on the ears? Put like horns on the...

01:04:22.010 --> 01:04:23.929
And then wouldn't he just be wearing horns? I'm

01:04:23.929 --> 01:04:27.309
sure they have sully ears. No. Horn ears? Listen

01:04:27.309 --> 01:04:30.190
to yourself. You're ridiculous. You know what?

01:04:30.329 --> 01:04:32.510
It feels important to me now. I need to see if

01:04:32.510 --> 01:04:35.710
there are sully ears. I'm sure there are. So

01:04:35.710 --> 01:04:40.409
one of the glowing, or not glowing, glaring phrases

01:04:40.409 --> 01:04:46.050
that was on the website for single writers is...

01:04:46.400 --> 01:04:51.519
For like -minded individuals. Hmm. Ah, there

01:04:51.519 --> 01:04:54.639
you go. They are horns. But canonically, canonically,

01:04:54.739 --> 01:04:58.760
in the Monsters universe. Who's to say, whenever

01:04:58.760 --> 01:05:01.139
they do a live -action Monsters, Inc., because

01:05:01.139 --> 01:05:03.659
they will, he's not going to have real ears.

01:05:03.840 --> 01:05:07.420
Okay. I'm calling it ahead of time. Okay. Well,

01:05:07.440 --> 01:05:10.219
they're making a new roller coaster. It's a Monsters,

01:05:10.219 --> 01:05:12.480
Inc. one. Now I'm kind of feeling like I'm pro

01:05:12.480 --> 01:05:15.679
-Disney adult. Yes. This is a bummer for me.

01:05:15.920 --> 01:05:18.119
I lost you. But for like -minded individuals,

01:05:18.599 --> 01:05:23.559
that's cult language. Which Disney is very heavy

01:05:23.559 --> 01:05:26.480
into cult language. To be fair, most dating sites

01:05:26.480 --> 01:05:28.739
are for like -minded individuals. Yeah, let's

01:05:28.739 --> 01:05:30.719
see. That's why there's... But when you say it

01:05:30.719 --> 01:05:33.559
out loud, when you say the quiet part out loud...

01:05:33.559 --> 01:05:39.800
No. That's why there's farmers only. That's why

01:05:39.800 --> 01:05:42.000
there's... Black people meet. Christian mingle.

01:05:42.260 --> 01:05:46.340
With two... E's, not an EA. EA is a completely

01:05:46.340 --> 01:05:53.199
different website. I've heard. Did we get cut

01:05:53.199 --> 01:05:57.420
off? What happened? I just wanted to let you

01:05:57.420 --> 01:06:01.119
sit with that. Yeah, I mean, most dating sites

01:06:01.119 --> 01:06:05.139
are meant to have you start out with some kind

01:06:05.139 --> 01:06:08.300
of foundation. That's why you have profiles that

01:06:08.300 --> 01:06:12.559
give your highlight reel. Yeah. It's easier if

01:06:12.559 --> 01:06:15.800
the only people that you're looking at are also

01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:19.679
very into this thing you're very into. I just

01:06:19.679 --> 01:06:22.500
looked up the tagline from the dating site that

01:06:22.500 --> 01:06:26.199
we met on. You know what it says? It's real interesting

01:06:26.199 --> 01:06:30.699
to me. It says, it's a dating app that empowers

01:06:30.699 --> 01:06:32.599
women to make the first move in conversation.

01:06:32.940 --> 01:06:35.880
It's a women empowerment dating app. How do you

01:06:35.880 --> 01:06:38.559
feel about that? What's wrong with women having

01:06:38.559 --> 01:06:42.219
power? I don't think women should have power

01:06:42.219 --> 01:06:44.420
at the cost of men having power. I think everyone

01:06:44.420 --> 01:06:47.519
should just have power. All power to everywhere.

01:06:47.780 --> 01:06:51.559
But if everybody has power, does anybody really

01:06:51.559 --> 01:06:54.559
have power? If everyone gets a medal, then did

01:06:54.559 --> 01:06:57.199
anyone get a medal? I don't know. To quote Disney

01:06:57.199 --> 01:07:01.840
IP, if everybody is special, no one is. That's

01:07:01.840 --> 01:07:03.639
how I live my life. Dash from The Incredibles,

01:07:03.739 --> 01:07:06.380
in case you're wondering. Oh, it's a real quote

01:07:06.380 --> 01:07:13.730
from that? Yeah. Oh. Yeah. Third one is, so we

01:07:13.730 --> 01:07:18.250
have a charitable one. We have a cult -adjacent

01:07:18.250 --> 01:07:24.449
one. And then we have mousemingle .com. Worst

01:07:24.449 --> 01:07:33.010
name. And worst, worst, I don't, synopsis, worst

01:07:33.010 --> 01:07:37.309
tagline, I guess. It's dedicated to fans of all

01:07:37.309 --> 01:07:43.510
things Disney. They state that traditional internet

01:07:43.510 --> 01:07:46.210
dating sites don't understand the passion people

01:07:46.210 --> 01:07:50.730
have for all things Disney, but we do. Nope,

01:07:51.150 --> 01:07:55.590
nope, nope. Hold on. Hold on. If you're looking

01:07:55.590 --> 01:07:58.449
for your Mickey or Minnie, remember, it all starts

01:07:58.449 --> 01:08:03.289
with a wink or a message. Looking into stuff

01:08:03.289 --> 01:08:11.070
for this episode, I was... I was confronted with

01:08:11.070 --> 01:08:13.789
a memory of those kiosks that are in the middle

01:08:13.789 --> 01:08:16.430
of the mall where it's in the Disney font and

01:08:16.430 --> 01:08:20.029
it's like, he's my Mickey, she's my Minnie. The

01:08:20.029 --> 01:08:25.430
worst human beings you will ever meet. Oh, man.

01:08:26.729 --> 01:08:33.270
Just awful. I have a personal encounter with

01:08:33.270 --> 01:08:36.750
somebody like that. Oh, yeah? Yeah, this person

01:08:36.750 --> 01:08:39.489
was... Real nice. Real pleasant to be around

01:08:39.489 --> 01:08:43.029
for the most part. Except for when it came to

01:08:43.029 --> 01:08:46.550
their time, or close to their time, when they

01:08:46.550 --> 01:08:51.189
were going to Disney. Every day at lunch, this

01:08:51.189 --> 01:08:53.930
person would say, Alright, I've got 34 more days

01:08:53.930 --> 01:08:59.470
and 5 more hours. Or, in 10 minutes I can sign

01:08:59.470 --> 01:09:02.489
up to go eat at Cinderella's Castle. Oh, but

01:09:02.489 --> 01:09:04.430
then there's this event, so I don't know if I'll

01:09:04.430 --> 01:09:07.560
be able to do it then. They were real excited

01:09:07.560 --> 01:09:11.899
about it. They saved up their money. The person

01:09:11.899 --> 01:09:14.920
they went with was always their mom, which was

01:09:14.920 --> 01:09:18.500
interesting, but okay. She always seemed to have

01:09:18.500 --> 01:09:21.439
fun, would show us pictures and planned out her

01:09:21.439 --> 01:09:25.800
outfits and made sure she had one of those lounge

01:09:25.800 --> 01:09:29.920
fly backpacks to match her ears. I mean, she

01:09:29.920 --> 01:09:33.000
was excited, and I think she went for Halloween,

01:09:33.260 --> 01:09:37.739
and then again, Probably for spring break and

01:09:37.739 --> 01:09:45.000
then again in the summertime. Is this woman happily

01:09:45.000 --> 01:09:50.800
married? No. Did you tell her about Mouse Mingle?

01:09:51.060 --> 01:09:53.800
No, I didn't. Meet Upon Me? I kind of want to,

01:09:53.819 --> 01:09:56.039
though, but... She could be one of the beta testers

01:09:56.039 --> 01:10:00.460
of single writers. She struggled a little with

01:10:00.460 --> 01:10:05.520
dating. Interesting. Yeah. On principle, I think

01:10:05.520 --> 01:10:07.399
that you are allowed to be excited about however

01:10:07.399 --> 01:10:09.600
many days are left in your countdown. Yeah. But

01:10:09.600 --> 01:10:12.920
I think you are only allowed socially to share

01:10:12.920 --> 01:10:18.199
certain points. I am one month away. I am six

01:10:18.199 --> 01:10:20.720
months away. If you are sharing with me up to

01:10:20.720 --> 01:10:23.039
the day. To our daily countdown. Up to the hour.

01:10:23.659 --> 01:10:26.739
Minute, maybe. I don't want to talk to you. But

01:10:26.739 --> 01:10:29.079
where it was coming from was the Disney app.

01:10:29.479 --> 01:10:31.119
So, like, she would make all of her reservations

01:10:31.119 --> 01:10:33.659
and stuff through the Disney app. And it would,

01:10:33.720 --> 01:10:37.039
like, give, like, show a breakdown. They are

01:10:37.039 --> 01:10:38.340
well aware of what they're doing. That was real

01:10:38.340 --> 01:10:40.380
interesting. Because I didn't know that was a

01:10:40.380 --> 01:10:45.340
thing. But luckily for her, she does work with

01:10:45.340 --> 01:10:48.600
children. And she implements her Disney love

01:10:48.600 --> 01:10:52.399
in her classroom. And they love it. And she thrives

01:10:52.399 --> 01:10:55.819
in that. And so, you just got to find the right

01:10:55.819 --> 01:10:57.840
outlet, I guess. She's making it work. Yeah.

01:10:58.800 --> 01:11:01.920
Do you think it's strange? Would you think it

01:11:01.920 --> 01:11:06.279
was strange if someone just wanted to talk to

01:11:06.279 --> 01:11:11.479
you nonstop about Six Flags? Yes. I would think

01:11:11.479 --> 01:11:12.760
it's strange if someone wanted to talk to you

01:11:12.760 --> 01:11:16.000
nonstop about any one thing. But like just, you'll,

01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:17.960
okay. We'll say you're having just a conversation

01:11:17.960 --> 01:11:20.899
with someone and then they casually slip in something

01:11:20.899 --> 01:11:23.800
about Six Flags, right? Okay. And then you're

01:11:23.800 --> 01:11:26.739
like, hmm, okay. Weird choice, but all right.

01:11:27.079 --> 01:11:30.020
And then. You keep going about your conversation,

01:11:30.079 --> 01:11:33.840
and then another Six Flags thing comes up. Are

01:11:33.840 --> 01:11:36.300
you going to think that's weird? After a certain

01:11:36.300 --> 01:11:38.659
point, I would genuinely assume that you're the

01:11:38.659 --> 01:11:45.880
reincarnation of Mr. Six, but... Oh, the old

01:11:45.880 --> 01:11:47.899
man that answered? Yeah. Oh, that was great.

01:11:49.100 --> 01:11:52.500
But I don't think we have that same mindset when

01:11:52.500 --> 01:11:54.000
someone talks about Disney. Is that just because

01:11:54.000 --> 01:11:56.399
it's so prevalent throughout all of culture?

01:11:57.740 --> 01:12:00.819
Yeah, I mean, there's a lot more to Disney than

01:12:00.819 --> 01:12:03.800
there is to Six Flags. Yeah. Like, I mean, you've

01:12:03.800 --> 01:12:09.260
got the rides, you've got Looney Tunes, DC. I

01:12:09.260 --> 01:12:10.939
think it's just Looney Tunes and DC now, isn't

01:12:10.939 --> 01:12:13.140
it? I think they're slowly phasing out Looney

01:12:13.140 --> 01:12:15.840
Tunes. Nickelodeon. Oh, they are? Stop. Did they

01:12:15.840 --> 01:12:17.680
still have Nickelodeon? I thought they got rid

01:12:17.680 --> 01:12:19.920
of the Nickelodeon stuff. I don't know. I can't

01:12:19.920 --> 01:12:21.600
remember the last time I saw Six Flags. SpongeBob,

01:12:21.619 --> 01:12:24.119
I think, was the last holdover. And that's been

01:12:24.119 --> 01:12:27.359
gone forever. Six Flags is like a ghost town.

01:12:27.460 --> 01:12:31.359
Okay. So you're saying that there's just a lot

01:12:31.359 --> 01:12:36.460
more of Disney to talk about. Yes. Okay. I mean,

01:12:36.460 --> 01:12:38.840
you have all the movies, too. Okay. That's a

01:12:38.840 --> 01:12:40.779
good point. And soundtracks. What about Universal?

01:12:41.659 --> 01:12:44.880
Oh. Why are there not Universal adults? Hmm.

01:12:45.560 --> 01:12:47.859
Why don't people make a big stink about them?

01:12:47.960 --> 01:12:52.119
Harry Potter people. Harry Potter or Harry Potter

01:12:52.119 --> 01:12:55.539
people. Yeah. That's usually a lot. They have

01:12:55.539 --> 01:13:00.560
the robe thing. Okay, but before they put Harry

01:13:00.560 --> 01:13:03.500
Potter Land in there, you still heard about Disney

01:13:03.500 --> 01:13:06.899
adults. You didn't hear about Universal adults

01:13:06.899 --> 01:13:10.039
or people bashing on people that go to Universal

01:13:10.039 --> 01:13:12.100
all the time. I think it's just marketed differently.

01:13:12.539 --> 01:13:16.359
Yeah? I mean... So do you think that Disney is

01:13:16.359 --> 01:13:19.739
more successful in that? Absolutely. Even though

01:13:19.739 --> 01:13:22.319
they probably have a lot less overhead so they

01:13:22.319 --> 01:13:26.819
don't have to make as much? Universal makes so

01:13:26.819 --> 01:13:29.319
much of its money with things that you can't

01:13:29.319 --> 01:13:32.399
really replicate in a theme park. Everything

01:13:32.399 --> 01:13:34.260
that Disney makes could be replicated in the

01:13:34.260 --> 01:13:40.319
theme park. But Universal does... You've been

01:13:40.319 --> 01:13:44.939
to Universal, right? Nope. I have been. So in

01:13:44.939 --> 01:13:49.920
the California one, at least, they do a little

01:13:49.920 --> 01:13:52.340
tram ride through the entire set. So you'll go

01:13:52.340 --> 01:13:55.000
through... um like when i went i went through

01:13:55.000 --> 01:13:58.739
the set of the good place and a bunch of like

01:13:58.739 --> 01:14:01.140
there was jaws with the animatronic shark like

01:14:01.140 --> 01:14:06.640
actual filming like actual set yeah oh um so

01:14:06.640 --> 01:14:08.659
have you seen the good place you have right so

01:14:08.659 --> 01:14:10.680
i went through the town square where they have

01:14:10.680 --> 01:14:13.800
like the yogurt shop we drove through that um

01:14:13.800 --> 01:14:15.899
but then they get to a point where they're talking

01:14:15.899 --> 01:14:17.640
about like the effects and stuff that universal

01:14:17.640 --> 01:14:20.300
does for some of its movies so you're in a like

01:14:20.300 --> 01:14:24.840
subway car that gets um flooded for a second

01:14:24.840 --> 01:14:26.439
and then it goes into like the fast and furious

01:14:26.439 --> 01:14:29.920
stuff and like there's not a lot that you can

01:14:29.920 --> 01:14:38.199
uh you bring in mark sinclair into this uh there's

01:14:38.199 --> 01:14:40.159
not a lot that you can do with like the fast

01:14:40.159 --> 01:14:43.479
and furious or with jaws or with like most of

01:14:43.479 --> 01:14:45.359
the stuff that universal produces yeah apparently

01:14:45.359 --> 01:14:48.819
the fast and furious ride is pretty ass yeah

01:14:48.819 --> 01:14:52.060
that's what i heard i don't know It's like a

01:14:52.060 --> 01:14:56.399
4D movie. Oh, okay. I also think that they haven't

01:14:56.399 --> 01:14:59.680
dedicated a ton of money to their rides because

01:14:59.680 --> 01:15:01.840
almost all the rides that I went on when I was

01:15:01.840 --> 01:15:04.319
at Universal were the same. They were just 4D,

01:15:04.380 --> 01:15:07.619
like you sit in this little, it's essentially

01:15:07.619 --> 01:15:10.000
like a sleigh. At least the one for The Simpsons

01:15:10.000 --> 01:15:15.359
was a three -row roller coaster car. And you

01:15:15.359 --> 01:15:17.720
went off the tracks and it's the Spongebob ride.

01:15:17.819 --> 01:15:20.520
It's the same as it was in the Despicable Me

01:15:20.520 --> 01:15:27.600
area. Men in Black? No. Indiana Jones was fun.

01:15:28.100 --> 01:15:31.239
That one was cool. Did you go to the Mummy? Mummy,

01:15:31.300 --> 01:15:35.859
not Indiana Jones. The Mummy was cool. The cockroach

01:15:35.859 --> 01:15:41.079
things freaked me out. That one was not a fun

01:15:41.079 --> 01:15:44.859
experience. Jurassic Park and The Mummy were

01:15:44.859 --> 01:15:47.100
really the only ones that weren't the 40 rides.

01:15:47.279 --> 01:15:49.260
And Hagrid's thing, but that line was way too

01:15:49.260 --> 01:15:52.899
long. I was reading an article that was talking

01:15:52.899 --> 01:15:55.579
about why people hate Disney adults, and two

01:15:55.579 --> 01:15:56.899
of the things that they pointed out I thought

01:15:56.899 --> 01:15:59.640
would be interesting talking points. One of those

01:15:59.640 --> 01:16:04.500
was because it's very weird for a person to mourn

01:16:04.500 --> 01:16:10.550
the loss of a ride. That is weird. This was specifically

01:16:10.550 --> 01:16:14.390
talking about the loss of a ride that I did not

01:16:14.390 --> 01:16:17.710
know was themed after Song of the South, Splash

01:16:17.710 --> 01:16:22.510
Mountain. Yeah. I watched a video because they

01:16:22.510 --> 01:16:26.109
reopened it. I think they closed it in 2020,

01:16:26.310 --> 01:16:30.130
I think. I don't remember. It was shockingly

01:16:30.130 --> 01:16:34.569
recently. But they brought it back as Tiana's

01:16:34.569 --> 01:16:38.159
Bayou Adventure. And the new one looks so cool.

01:16:38.260 --> 01:16:39.840
I don't know what it looked like before. I don't

01:16:39.840 --> 01:16:41.960
know that I've ever seen the full ride to Splash

01:16:41.960 --> 01:16:43.479
Mountain. I've only ever seen the drop part.

01:16:44.800 --> 01:16:48.939
But I think it's insane that you could mourn

01:16:48.939 --> 01:16:52.979
the loss of a ride. That is a valid reason to

01:16:52.979 --> 01:16:57.300
have distaste for certain Disney adults. Yeah.

01:16:57.880 --> 01:17:01.479
Yeah. I think it probably falls into the same

01:17:01.479 --> 01:17:07.619
realm as you. are passing by somewhere from your

01:17:07.619 --> 01:17:10.539
childhood and it used to be this thing you had

01:17:10.539 --> 01:17:12.600
fond memories of this thing and now it's not

01:17:12.600 --> 01:17:15.279
that thing anymore so you feel like that part

01:17:15.279 --> 01:17:18.920
of your childhood is just dead sure i know this

01:17:18.920 --> 01:17:22.199
happens to me uh the the chuck e cheese that

01:17:22.199 --> 01:17:24.659
we were constantly abandoned it that's not chuck

01:17:24.659 --> 01:17:28.000
cheese anymore what is it it's nothing it's gone

01:17:28.000 --> 01:17:31.039
the facade is still there the signage is down

01:17:31.039 --> 01:17:33.680
but it's just an empty empty thing now it's a

01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:36.970
shell And see that you are feeling that right

01:17:36.970 --> 01:17:41.470
now in real time. I was going to say, maybe that

01:17:41.470 --> 01:17:45.449
is where it's, it's not because, Oh, this ride

01:17:45.449 --> 01:17:48.109
is a different ride now. It's because you have

01:17:48.109 --> 01:17:50.590
those memories connected to this thing, this

01:17:50.590 --> 01:17:54.069
inanimate thing. And now that thing is not that

01:17:54.069 --> 01:17:56.810
thing anymore. And so you just feel like that

01:17:56.810 --> 01:17:59.989
part of you just, the, the only example that

01:17:59.989 --> 01:18:02.529
I could really think of with that for some reason

01:18:02.529 --> 01:18:06.869
was my first, serving job. I worked at a Cotton

01:18:06.869 --> 01:18:11.329
Patch Cafe. I was there until the end of Cotton

01:18:11.329 --> 01:18:17.510
Patch Cafe. And it was so strange going to see

01:18:17.510 --> 01:18:20.210
it when it became Torchy's Tacos. Yeah. Like

01:18:20.210 --> 01:18:22.689
I could still see like the shell of the restaurant

01:18:22.689 --> 01:18:24.609
that I used to be for one thing. Super excited

01:18:24.609 --> 01:18:27.189
they got rid of the carpet because what restaurant

01:18:27.189 --> 01:18:29.470
has carpet? And even before it was a Cotton Patch

01:18:29.470 --> 01:18:32.119
it was an Applebee's. Yeah. Which seems more

01:18:32.119 --> 01:18:34.399
on brand. So why didn't you mourn it being an

01:18:34.399 --> 01:18:37.460
Applebee's? I don't remember ever going to that

01:18:37.460 --> 01:18:41.420
Applebee's. Exactly. See, so it's not that the

01:18:41.420 --> 01:18:44.760
thing changed. It's that the memories you had

01:18:44.760 --> 01:18:47.180
tied to it are now influenced by this change.

01:18:47.439 --> 01:18:49.720
For sure. That was just like, so whenever I was

01:18:49.720 --> 01:18:53.560
trying to think of like a version of this kind

01:18:53.560 --> 01:18:55.239
of thing that fit into my life, the only thing

01:18:55.239 --> 01:18:57.899
I could really think of was that. Gotcha. But

01:18:57.899 --> 01:19:00.659
generally speaking, like. Even in the sense that

01:19:00.659 --> 01:19:02.199
like that Chuck E. Cheese is closed down, like

01:19:02.199 --> 01:19:04.220
it's, I couldn't tell you the last time I was

01:19:04.220 --> 01:19:06.659
there and those memories that I have of it are

01:19:06.659 --> 01:19:10.340
still very much present. That's fair. I do remember

01:19:10.340 --> 01:19:13.979
that one. It was 2020, maybe my 20th birthday.

01:19:15.340 --> 01:19:17.600
No, I was like 17, I think. So you're at least

01:19:17.600 --> 01:19:20.800
23. Oh, there you go. Long time ago. It was,

01:19:20.800 --> 01:19:25.680
it was a while ago. Um, but, but yeah, like those,

01:19:25.760 --> 01:19:28.989
those memories still. hold exactly the same amount

01:19:28.989 --> 01:19:32.329
of weight as they do or as they would have anyway

01:19:32.329 --> 01:19:34.369
so i mean i don't i don't necessarily understand

01:19:34.369 --> 01:19:36.050
this one but i also think that going through

01:19:36.050 --> 01:19:39.210
a whole like grieving process even if it's just

01:19:39.210 --> 01:19:43.930
for you for the sake of being like characteristically

01:19:43.930 --> 01:19:46.529
dramatic because you're on the internet it's

01:19:46.529 --> 01:19:50.890
it's weird i think it's weird yeah that uh i

01:19:50.890 --> 01:19:53.810
mean i think it's weird to have a sustained morning

01:19:53.810 --> 01:19:59.439
for Anything like that. Anything that's not sentient.

01:20:00.359 --> 01:20:05.420
So, I mean, it's just that you say, hey, that

01:20:05.420 --> 01:20:07.920
was a good thing that happened before. It's not

01:20:07.920 --> 01:20:10.260
that way anymore. That sucks, but it's okay.

01:20:10.439 --> 01:20:12.920
And you move on with your life. What was your

01:20:12.920 --> 01:20:15.180
other one? The other thing that I had from this

01:20:15.180 --> 01:20:19.060
article was one of the reasons that we hate Disney

01:20:19.060 --> 01:20:21.239
adults is because Disney adults are predominantly

01:20:21.239 --> 01:20:24.329
millennial women. And we tend to hate a lot of

01:20:24.329 --> 01:20:27.329
the things that millennial women like. Points

01:20:27.329 --> 01:20:33.750
to that alongside Disney are Twilight, Taylor

01:20:33.750 --> 01:20:38.250
Swift. Whoa. Uh -oh. We'll save that for later.

01:20:39.189 --> 01:20:44.470
Sure. But a lot of people hate on just like millennial

01:20:44.470 --> 01:20:51.170
women things. Why do you think it is? I don't

01:20:51.170 --> 01:20:54.170
know. We just don't. Want women to have things.

01:20:55.229 --> 01:21:01.869
Okay. No, I don't know. Like, never mind. No,

01:21:01.869 --> 01:21:05.430
like what? No, I'm good. Come on. Come on. No,

01:21:05.449 --> 01:21:06.850
it's okay. What do we not want women to have?

01:21:07.689 --> 01:21:16.489
Equal pay. Say in their body. This is what I

01:21:16.489 --> 01:21:19.619
didn't want to say. Autonomy, let's go. Just

01:21:19.619 --> 01:21:21.159
like that, we are a political podcast. Remember,

01:21:21.159 --> 01:21:24.520
you have three girls living in your house. Oh,

01:21:24.560 --> 01:21:26.579
I know. And he thought periods were taken care

01:21:26.579 --> 01:21:30.659
of with gloves. They could be. They could be.

01:21:30.680 --> 01:21:33.420
They could be. I mean... They probably shouldn't

01:21:33.420 --> 01:21:41.000
be. Probably. Anyway... Yeah, I'd be interested

01:21:41.000 --> 01:21:44.119
to know what people think the reason for that

01:21:44.119 --> 01:21:47.760
is. The... Millennial women, I think, tend to

01:21:47.760 --> 01:21:53.119
be a little bit more of like the DIY, the crafty

01:21:53.119 --> 01:21:55.859
kind of people. And so I think they are more

01:21:55.859 --> 01:22:00.960
capable of wearing their interests. Are those

01:22:00.960 --> 01:22:03.479
the kind of people who tend to decorate for every

01:22:03.479 --> 01:22:10.399
holiday? Probably. Oh, no. Are you having a self

01:22:10.399 --> 01:22:13.399
-realization right now? No. Live on recording?

01:22:13.720 --> 01:22:17.020
No. I love Disney, but I don't make it my whole

01:22:17.020 --> 01:22:21.239
personality. When we go one day, you better believe

01:22:21.239 --> 01:22:24.180
we're going to have coordinating outfits. Ears

01:22:24.180 --> 01:22:27.659
for each day. You're Disney bounding? I'm not

01:22:27.659 --> 01:22:30.859
wearing ears. Oh, you know, boys don't wear ears.

01:22:31.819 --> 01:22:38.060
They can wear hats. Whoa, okay. Boys don't wear

01:22:38.060 --> 01:22:39.760
ears. Maybe this is why everyone's hating on

01:22:39.760 --> 01:22:43.979
millennial women. No, out of vision. You're gatekeeping.

01:22:44.539 --> 01:22:48.119
We're going to have a theme for every day, and

01:22:48.119 --> 01:22:49.760
you're going to like it, and you don't have a

01:22:49.760 --> 01:22:55.199
choice. Ooh, okay. That is strong phrasing. So,

01:22:55.279 --> 01:22:58.920
but again, we don't have decorations up in the

01:22:58.920 --> 01:23:04.079
house. The most, like, kid things are in the

01:23:04.079 --> 01:23:07.819
kids' rooms. Yeah. And even then, I mean, they

01:23:07.819 --> 01:23:10.340
don't have character stuff plastered all around.

01:23:10.979 --> 01:23:16.460
Yeah. So. I mean, I love Disney and all things

01:23:16.460 --> 01:23:19.819
Disney, but I don't make it my entire personality.

01:23:20.880 --> 01:23:28.159
And that's where I'll stand on that. Yeah. All

01:23:28.159 --> 01:23:32.140
right. Do we have any closing words of wisdom?

01:23:33.840 --> 01:23:38.300
What do you got for us? All I think that needs

01:23:38.300 --> 01:23:43.430
to be said is hakuna matata. What a wonderful

01:23:43.430 --> 01:23:51.729
phrase. All right. And if you are a Disney adult

01:23:51.729 --> 01:23:55.409
at the parks, remember, this is for you, mostly

01:23:55.409 --> 01:23:57.270
for the kids that are still in their first go

01:23:57.270 --> 01:24:08.350
-round. Be kind. Okay. Okay. And for as myself,

01:24:08.770 --> 01:24:13.800
there are probably... Sometimes during this episode

01:24:13.800 --> 01:24:18.520
where I flipped opinions, my opinion, where I

01:24:18.520 --> 01:24:24.840
maybe was a little hypocritical. But at the end

01:24:24.840 --> 01:24:31.180
of the day, I don't really care. And come at

01:24:31.180 --> 01:24:40.050

right. We'll see you. Bye.
