Theme Parks After Midnight

A theme park can be two completely different things, and that’s where we start swinging. One version is pure adrenaline: giant drops, brutal G-forces, and coasters that leave you wondering how your neck is still attached. The other version is story and atmosphere: parades, hidden details, and immersive design that’s fun even when you skip the rides. We get into the argument with real nostalgia, real regrets, and the kind of late-night honesty that only shows up when everyone’s tired and the jokes get dangerous.

Before we hit the parks, we run through a rapid-fire stack of tangents that somehow still matter: Steam Machine pricing and why paying over a grand for a console PC hybrid feels nuts, the fear of early hardware failures, and what “entry-level PC” actually means in 2026 money. We also touch GTA 6 preorder chatter, then pull a Reddit roulette story that sounds messy until the twist lands and flips the whole room.

Then we go deep on the theme park debate: Six Flags memories, Kings Island versus Cedar Point, and the line between a thrill park and a true theme park. Miss Meseeks brings the Disney World rundown with Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom, and the little details that make it feel like an experience instead of a lineup of rides, including the more subtle stuff like scent marketing and how food pricing changes the day. Of course we detour into SeaWorld weirdness, pitch our dream park concepts like Predator and TMNT, and close with a filmography showdown plus a wild orca fact you will not forget.

SPEAKER_02 3:42

Normal people are sleeping.

SPEAKER_01 3:57

No, there's there's a whole I'm just gonna be up this late anyway.

SPEAKER_02 4:01

There's a whole nother part of the planet that is like just like in the middle of the day right now.

SPEAKER_05 4:06

Like that's and they also don't give a fuck about 4th of July.

SPEAKER_02 4:09

I'm saying that's why, but still, it is the 4th for them. That's what I'm saying. It's the 4th of July. But that's the 4th of July for everybody. Universally. Yeah, universally, it'll be the 4th of July. So it just is what it is.

SPEAKER_01 4:22

Pulse Checks And Fourth Of July

SPEAKER_00 4:28

Hey.

SPEAKER_02 4:29

So anyway, um, let's go around the room, get some pulses, right? Yeah, check some pulses. Um, Miss Mexic. God damn it.

SPEAKER_01 4:39

I never know how to get it on here, so I just make it up. Uh, but actually, the last time I had my pulse check, it was like 72.

SPEAKER_05 4:48

72. That's perfect.

SPEAKER_01 4:51

Um, yeah. I was in the hospital like a few weeks ago, and my heart rate kept going below like 60. They were like, oh, if it keeps going below 60, you're Brady Cardic. And I was like, what the fuck is that?

SPEAKER_05 5:05

That's that's not perfect.

SPEAKER_01 5:06

So damn, I didn't know you were.

SPEAKER_02 5:12

She's too chill, is what that is. Way too chill. Unbothered. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 5:20

I just die. It's no big deal.

SPEAKER_02 5:21

Yeah, the the level of unbothered everyone should be at below 60. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 5:27

Alarms kept going off every single time.

SPEAKER_02 5:30

I can imagine.

SPEAKER_01 5:31

Every single time, like big alarms would go off, and I'm like and then my heart rate would go up just over, and then I'd relax, and then they go off.

SPEAKER_02 5:39

Can you imagine? Can you imagine? As she's relaxing, her heart rate's too low, but then she worries because her heart rate's too low, so the heart rate goes up. So it's just like it's how she keeps herself alive.

SPEAKER_05 5:53

I would prefer it if you didn't die.

SPEAKER_01 5:56

I don't feel one way or the other about it, honestly. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. Am I right?

SPEAKER_03 6:03

I respect it.

SPEAKER_02 6:04

You know what I usually tell people at work when they're like, hey, what happens if like something blows up? I say, you know, it's no longer my problem at that point.

SPEAKER_00 6:11

So my problem at that point, there's really a pro-con list here.

SPEAKER_02 6:19

Somebody else will have to deal with this.

SPEAKER_01 6:23

It will not be me. I'll finally catch a fucking break. Yeah, yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_02 6:29

I'll probably get some rest. Anyway, so glad you're doing this.

SPEAKER_01 6:33

I got more of it real fast. I don't know why you started with me.

SPEAKER_02 6:36

So so glad you're doing so well, Miss Meese. Hey Chris, what's your what's your pulse look like?

SPEAKER_05 8:19

What a transition? 76.

SPEAKER_02 8:23

SPEAKER_01 8:29

See, I was at the gas station.

SPEAKER_03 8:32

SPEAKER_02 8:36

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 8:37

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 8:38

So, you know, there's two types of people in the world.

SPEAKER_02 8:40

Yeah, that's true. Three, if you count the people that are like, well, 711 exists, so yeah, I guess there is type A, B, and C.

SPEAKER_01 8:52

I mean, theoretically, you probably go, I mean, to Z at least. I'm just saying. Before you start doubling up.

SPEAKER_02 8:57

Hey, did you guys know there's only 25 letters in the alphabet?

unknown 9:01

No.

SPEAKER_01 9:02

Don't play with me.

SPEAKER_02 9:04

I don't know why. Anyway, we're good. Anyway, so Devil's in your book.

SPEAKER_05 9:13

This is your sibling. Like, you guys have to say genetic code.

SPEAKER_03 9:20

You know, someone's gonna get that tomorrow.

SPEAKER_02 9:23

Wait, wait. For the joke.

SPEAKER_05 9:30

No, I'm just saying, like, come on.

SPEAKER_02 9:36

I couldn't help myself. It's just it's just we were talking about letters and alphabet. Anyway. So Templeton, your pulse is at 76. Yeah? 76. Anything new?

SPEAKER_05 9:50

Not no.

SPEAKER_02 9:52

Not not no? Not no. Got it.

SPEAKER_01 9:57

So is that like a yeah?

SPEAKER_02 9:58

I mean, that means yes if it's not no.

SPEAKER_01 10:01

It's like a it's like a He did say not no.

SPEAKER_02 10:09

Not no. It's not a no, but it's not a no. It's also not a yes, apparently. Oh, good grief. Good grief. Okay, well, listen, as long as you're doing fine, that's uh that's all that matters. If everybody's doing good. Yeah, if everybody's doing good, awesome sauce. So we got some stuff to cover. Okay. Because I know that um unfortunately Yeti is not here. He is feeling a little under the weather. Okay. Because I don't know. I think his little ball of protoplasm probably sneezed in his eyeball or something. And now he's sick and he sounds sick. He sounds awful. So he's resting up, get some rest, see you next show. But entertainment news, if anybody wants

Steam Machine Prices Drop

SPEAKER_02 10:56

some. Okay. Yes please, yes, please. The steam machine. There is some news about that. They got a price tag. Did anybody see the price tag for the steam machine?

SPEAKER_03 11:07

Are you talking about the steam cube?

SPEAKER_02 11:09

I'm sto I'm talking about the steam cube. Wait, wait, what'd you say in this meeting?

SPEAKER_01 11:19

I thought we were going to the Industrial Revolution. I was like, the Steam Machine. What are we talking about? Steam.

SPEAKER_06 11:25

The Steam Machine.

SPEAKER_02 11:28

He's like steam plane. She's like, wait a minute, wait a minute. What steel city are we visiting? We don't like Pittsburgh.

SPEAKER_01 11:36

I've been very confused for a little bit. I was like, um We don't like Pittsburgh.

SPEAKER_02 11:42

So yeah, the Steam Machine, which is actually just the uh uh Valve's version of like a console PC hybrid, um, finally got a price tag. What does anybody did anybody hear about it? Does anybody want to know? Yes.

SPEAKER_03 11:56

I thought it was like a grand. I did not hear about it. I would like to guess what price it's coming out.

SPEAKER_02 12:02

Uh okay, I will allow you to guess.

SPEAKER_03 12:08

Okay, I have two guesses. I have a gut, and then I have a second guess that maybe my gut was a little wrong. Give me both. $1,200 for the first guess. That was my gut. Okay. And then I'm thinking more realistically, maybe like $800. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 12:25

Can I guess?

SPEAKER_02 12:26

Yes, absolutely. Yes. Let's make this a little game.

SPEAKER_01 12:29

Oh, I am going to guess $1,201, Bob.

SPEAKER_02 12:36

Wow. Did she really pull a price from the city?

SPEAKER_03 12:39

She did, dude. But she buy a dollar. Oh my god. If it's above $1,200, I'm walking out of here.

SPEAKER_02 12:48

Okay. Uh Templeton. Templeton. Would you like to take a guess? I said a grand. A grand? Okay. Alright, alright. So here are the prices for the Steam Machine. Oh. That's right. Plural. Because we have technically four options, but there's two options as far as a Steam machine goes. There's a 512 gigabyte Steam machine, so that's how much memory is on the on the Steam itself, on the console PC hybrid. And then they have a two-terabyte, and then they have a two-terabyte uh Steam machine.

SPEAKER_03 13:26

That two terabyte's gonna be like two grand.

SPEAKER_02 13:28

So for the 512 gigabyte, now, mind you, this is without the controller. It's one thousand forty-nine dollars for a for the five hundred and twelve gigabytes. Isn't it weird how it's like almost right? For the two terabyte, it's one thousand three hundred and forty-nine dollars. That's without the controller.

SPEAKER_05 13:54

With isn't it weird how as much right with the controller?

SPEAKER_01 13:58

With the controller, because how are you gonna play the game?

SPEAKER_02 14:00

With the controller, one thousand one hundred and twenty-eight dollars for the 512 gigabytes.

SPEAKER_05 14:07

I I agree with miss with me seeks like what controller? What the fuck are you talking about?

SPEAKER_02 14:11

Two terabyte steam machine with the controller. 1428.

SPEAKER_01 14:18

How do it without a controller feels fucking crazy?

SPEAKER_02 14:22

What controller? Does it work? The controller that goes with the color connect? Um, now that I don't know. I haven't looked totally into it, but Valve does have its own controller that goes with the Steam machine. So I don't know if like any other controller is gonna work with it.

SPEAKER_03 14:40

Or could you mouse and key?

SPEAKER_02 14:42

I'm thinking it's gonna be more mouse and keyboard because again, it's more I if it feels more like a PC console hybrid.

SPEAKER_03 14:47

So it's probably it's probably they're probably offering it without a controller for people who know they're only going to mouse and key.

SPEAKER_05 14:54

Pirates are gonna have such a great year.

SPEAKER_03 14:57

But 90% of the consumers that purchase it will likely end up buying it with a controller. So that's why it doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_02 15:07

And also, pirates are gonna have such a great year, and yeah, especially the ones of Somalia. Um, but also I'm the captain, but fun fact the Steam Machine is actually less powerful than the PS5. So is the price worth it? Some people are Miss VC's like, fuck that shit. Some people are saying it's a good it's a good intro PC, but there are a lot of people arguing that you could find a better PC for a very similar price. Yes, Chris.

SPEAKER_03 15:50

The people that said that it's a good entry-level PC, those people would be wrong.

SPEAKER_02 15:56

Wait, you gotta do it right. You gotta do it right. Good Jeremy. Thank you. Wrong. Remixed it for you. Well yeah. So, Miss Mees, you obviously have a problem with the price of the steam machine.

SPEAKER_01 16:15

I got a problem with the price of a lot of things, if I'm being honest with you. And yeah, I would go on a trip with that. I would prioritize something completely different. I would absolutely not spend a thousand dollars on a machine today. Spending less than a stack.

SPEAKER_02 16:32

Not less than a stack. And that's before tax. That's before tax. Yeah. Yeah. No, I get it. I get it. I get it.

SPEAKER_05 16:39

But fuck every single bit of that.

SPEAKER_02 16:41

Yeah. All of it. But for me, I'm just kind of like Top to bottom. I don't know. Like I the Steam Deck, I think, is gonna be a still a better option. You know, if you if you have a Steam Deck, don't worry about Steam machine.

SPEAKER_05 16:55

But because you can play everything. Correct. But but that's a lot of fucking money to spend. If you're gonna if you're not gonna use it a lot, you're wasting your your cash.

SPEAKER_02 17:10

Yeah. I agree. I agree that it is I I feel like it's a waste of money. Though obviously there's an ass for every chair, and there are some people out there that truly believe that that price is a fair price for the console PC hybrid. I don't I don't know. I don't know. Not when not when you can get a PS5 for half that price. I I think that seems steep for me. I mean, for I don't know, but we'll see. Valve, I we'll see what Valve does. We'll

Red Ring Flashbacks And Overheating

SPEAKER_02 17:43

see how it works. Now I did just read um there was one person who was playing the Steam Machine and actually got what they're calling the red line of death after only 20 minutes of playing it.

SPEAKER_05 17:56

That that makes me want to kill myself.

SPEAKER_02 17:59

And there's a lot of people because Miss Me Seeks, there was a whole thing with the Xbox 360 where it would get the red ring of death. Yeah. Our sibling Yeti. He went through I remember that. I think I do remember that. You remember when he was always like, like, oh my Xbox, my 360 is literally it's the red ring of death. I gotta, I gotta get it fixed. I gotta send it out. I gotta get a new one, whatever. So they're they're like, there's a lot of people who remember those days, and they're like, hey, just wrap it in a towel, it'll be fine.

SPEAKER_03 18:34

So I I feel like Valve is just drill out, just drill out a couple holes and put some pennies on it. It'll be fine.

SPEAKER_02 18:43

On your $1,000 piece of hardware.

SPEAKER_03 18:47

I remember putting pennies on my heatsink on my 360 so it would stop overheating.

SPEAKER_02 18:52

Yeah. Yeah. Do you think do you think the same could could be done for the steam machine? Or we just you just it depends on what's happening.

SPEAKER_03 19:02

It depends on what on like is it just getting too hot? Uh, because I also had a 360 that was getting too hot. The main problem was it was overheating. But it was um it would overheat to the point that it melted solder from the power supply, yeah, which was what was throwing the red ring of death code.

SPEAKER_06 19:22

Yep.

SPEAKER_03 19:22

Um, so it depends on what is causing this red line. It's probably an overheat issue.

SPEAKER_05 19:29

I would I would assume it's either way, like that that's a lot of money to spend on something that isn't fucking doing what it's supposed to do.

SPEAKER_02 19:37

Well, it did what it was supposed to do for 20 minutes at least.

SPEAKER_05 19:42

Like I bought and Jeremy can like some men can even last that long. I put off buying a PS5 for our PS4, I'm sorry, for like so long. And the first one I didn't I bought, like immediately didn't work. It's like, oh, I'm overheating. I'm not gonna do what I'm supposed to do.

SPEAKER_03 20:11

Same, bro, same. I'm overheating, so I'm not gonna do what I'm supposed to do.

SPEAKER_02 20:18

Especially with this fucking weather out there, bro.

SPEAKER_05 20:21

There was like a lot of money that I spent that I didn't even want to spend. I can't last that long.

SPEAKER_00 20:30

I was I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_02 20:32

I didn't anyway. So

GTA 6 Preorder Sticker Shock

SPEAKER_02 20:37

tell us how you feel about the Steam Machine. Um, the other thing I want to mention is GTA 6 is now available for pre-order.

SPEAKER_05 20:43

So ta-da! I'm not gonna spend $800 on that goddamn game.

SPEAKER_02 20:48

Well, the price of it is like your normal, um, your average games. I think I think it's like $79.99. Yeah, that's $80.

SPEAKER_00 20:56

$800 or $80?

SPEAKER_02 20:59

Some, yes. Some?

SPEAKER_00 21:01

SPEAKER_02 21:05

Wait, wait, wait. This V Seeks, you gotta do it right.

unknown 21:08

SPEAKER_02 21:09

$80?

SPEAKER_03 21:14

Wait till you hear the deluxe edition price.

SPEAKER_02 21:17

Oh, yeah. If you pay for a deluxe edition, you can spend like uh I'm sure it's gonna be like $199. Most of the time they are. They're like $200.

SPEAKER_01 21:25

Jay, stop talking to my son about video games. Why? Stop it.

SPEAKER_02 21:29

It's an expensive hobby. See? An expensive hobby.

SPEAKER_03 21:35

SPEAKER_02 21:39

Drugs are cheaper.

SPEAKER_03 21:43

Yeah. Sure are. Dude, the Dare program is fucking rolling in its grain right now. Drugs are cheaper than games. Wait, what's happening?

SPEAKER_02 21:57

For the jokes, okay, for the jokes. Listen. Listen, he came to me and said he wants to develop games when he gets older. So if he gets into that, he'll be able to afford whatever the fuck he wants.

SPEAKER_01 22:09

That's why my babylon STEM program is. Exactly. Exactly.

SPEAKER_02 22:15

So yes, I will talk to him about games, about digigames, because he might tell him he has to earn his money about it. Yeah. Yeah. He might, he might, he might, you know, get really get get really good at it. You know what I mean? He might just be the next, I don't know, Hideo Kojima. He might be the next Hideo Kojima. We don't know.

SPEAKER_03 22:57

Yeah, you had to write that down. Yeah, can you can you write that down, please?

SPEAKER_02 23:01

So anyway, um, let us know if you're excited about GTA 6. I I'm indifferent. I could care less. I'm not.

unknown 25:32

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 25:33

Here we are. Here we go. I know exactly how I'm gonna play this too. All right. Am I the asshole for trying to see?

SPEAKER_01 25:41

Pause.

SPEAKER_02 25:42

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 25:42

Pause real quick. The backtrack to this is ACDC's dirty deeds done done dirt cheap. By the way.

SPEAKER_02 25:56

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 25:56

I thought that was important.

SPEAKER_02 25:57

Perfect. It sounds like Miss Me Seeks has a nice uh little uh uh soundtrack to her life right now. Hell yeah. Perfect music for the perfect time. So am I the asshole for trying to steal her man? Let's find out. A little over a year ago, I was taken in by my friend, female 30, because I became homeless. At first, her man and I didn't get along, which led to small fights between them because I was going through a rough time. I was messy and loud and admittedly wasn't a great roommate. At first, it was mostly her who was helping me settle in. I don't cook, so she would cook for us, and overall just help me live again. And as I lived with them, her man, Male, 30, and I began to warm up to each other. We have a lot in common, so I feel like it was bound to happen. She's not a hiker, so he and I would go hiking together. Uh we can we can hang out on the couch uh when she's not around, nagging about the messes we made. She was a health freak, so when she's not around, we share junk food and hit it from her. He understands my needs and wants in uh and wants in ways no one was able to before. He's become my favorite person. Recently I've realized I love him more than her. I would follow him to the ends of the earth if he allowed it. I hate it when they are sitting together, and I would try to sit right in between them. I want to be where he is at all times, and I get upset when they are together without me. She caught me laying on his lap and told him that I'm trying to steal him. He tried to laugh it off and push me off, which hurt my feelings. He doesn't know he doesn't know it, but I'm trying to steal him. I want to be with him and kiss him forever. So, Reddit, would I be an asshole if I love my humans man more than my human, despite everything she's done for me?

SPEAKER_05 27:47

That guy just wants some booty.

SPEAKER_00 27:50

Dirty teeth! Dunter Cape, that's what we're saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 27:55

SPEAKER_01 28:24

Just so bummy. And like find somebody else to hike with, sis. You know how many other people like to hike?

SPEAKER_03 28:31

But it seemed like the boyfriend doesn't seem well, unless, unless. I don't know. That last sent or that one sentence where he like tried to laugh it off, seemed like is he unaware that this person's into him, or was he laughing out to like saying?

SPEAKER_05 28:47

No, no, no, no. He wanted some booty, daddy. He wanted some booty. He wanted some booty. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 28:56

Alright. So is that how everybody feels?

SPEAKER_03 29:01

I do think, yes, she's the asshole for trying to get in between like she's actively pursuing a man.

SPEAKER_01 29:07

Okay. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 29:08

She said it like in the Reddit post. I mean the easy thing.

SPEAKER_05 29:15

SPEAKER_03 29:58

Peak. I mean, saying getting in between my two favorite humans was a red heron for sure. Exactly.

SPEAKER_02 30:08

That's why I was like, I know exactly how I'm gonna play this. I'm gonna save that last portion. Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna pause for a dramatic effect. I'll give you.

SPEAKER_00 30:20

But if she was a real bitch.

SPEAKER_02 30:22

Yeah, if she's a real bitch, that would have been a problem. Yeah, that would have been a problem. That would have absolutely been a problem. So that's why I was like, it's a goofy one. So I don't know if you guys want to do that. I like a goofy one. I mean, that's fair. Okay, all right, all right. So is that it? You don't want to do another one? No? No. Okay. All right, perfect. Big man.

Theme Parks Kick Off

SPEAKER_02 34:44

talking about theme parks.

SPEAKER_05 34:46

Oh, okay. Theme park.

SPEAKER_02 34:47

Theme park.

SPEAKER_05 34:48

That's way different.

SPEAKER_02 34:49

Yeah, it is it is way different. So I'm glad you've woken up and joined us, Templeton, and have caught up to the conversation. But theme parks! We love we love a good theme park, right? Like, we've all been to one. Have we all been to one? I'm assuming we've all been to one.

SPEAKER_05 35:05

Yeah. Like, not all of us were rich.

SPEAKER_02 35:09

Okay.

SPEAKER_05 35:10

Have you been to one?

SPEAKER_02 35:12

I'm I guarantee he's been to King's Island.

SPEAKER_05 35:15

Yeah, Coney Island. Okay, then you've been to one. Not Cody. I'm not like fucking that rich.

SPEAKER_02 35:24

So so the question was, have you been to a theme park?

SPEAKER_04 35:30

Yes.

SPEAKER_02 35:31

Okay. Then there we go. You are eligible to speak about this topic now. So theme parks. What do we love about them? Do we love do you love a good theme park? Kind of like um Six Flags. It's very themed toward Looney Tunes or anything that's really Acme or anything like that. Or like uh what's the other one? Knott's Berry Farm, where they really leaned into peanuts, Charlie Brown type stuff. Like that was really cool. Obviously, King's Island was is more, you know, whatever the fuck they got.

SPEAKER_01 36:07

Nickelodeon are they Nickelodeon now? I don't, you know, I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 36:10

Because I think it's owned by Cedar Fair.

SPEAKER_01 36:12

I was gonna say Cedar Point.

SPEAKER_02 36:15

Yeah, I know I know Cedar Point just bought just bought King's Island and or King's Island, yeah. And they're and they're they're supposedly did did they already make the Giga Coaster or not?

SPEAKER_05 36:25

I don't even know what that is, man.

SPEAKER_02 36:28

Well it's it's it's basically like any coaster at uh like Cedar Point is would be considered a Giga Coaster. Like um because they're so bad.

SPEAKER_01 36:36

I have such an opinion on this topic, by the way. Yeah, about the delineation of parks. I can't wait.

SPEAKER_02 36:43

Yeah, because I know I know Miss Meese, she just went to Disney World. Hence the Disney World.

SPEAKER_01 36:52

Like twice in the past like two months.

SPEAKER_02 36:54

Yeah, so I'm gonna go back.

SPEAKER_01 36:56

I miss it so much.

SPEAKER_02 36:58

Isn't that crazy?

SPEAKER_01 36:59

I'm in a princess, I'm in a Rapunzel baseball jersey.

SPEAKER_02 37:03

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_01 37:04

And my Disney Heroes Disney. Ho ho! Hey, Mini!

SPEAKER_02 37:10

So anyway, I'm I'm not gonna I'm not gonna do impressions today. But theme parks, do we have do we have one that's a favorite or of of anybody? Did anybody have one that they can remember that they love the most? SeaWorld? No, okay. So would SeaWorld be considered I mean I guess it can be a theme part. Yeah, yeah, actually.

SPEAKER_01 37:37

Did you know the Yin Yang twins have been performing over at SeaWorld?

SPEAKER_02 37:41

No. What have they been performing at SeaWorld?

SPEAKER_01 37:47

You know what they've been performing at SeaWorld.

SPEAKER_02 37:49

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

unknown 37:51

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_02 37:52

The Yin Yang twins. 369.

SPEAKER_01 37:57

No, I couldn't even make it up. No. Couldn't make it up.

SPEAKER_02 38:00

No.

SPEAKER_01 38:00

The crowds going wild. Bunch of millennial moms and dads swinging their babies in the air. It's crazy.

SPEAKER_02 38:06

As they as they crazy action.

SPEAKER_01 38:09

I'm not even kidding. I'm not even kidding.

SPEAKER_02 38:11

Orcas are swimming behind them. They're like, From the window for the wild orcas are looking to eat them.

SPEAKER_03 38:24

I love orcas, but they they should not be in a cage.

SPEAKER_01 38:27

No, I feel bad for whales because they just drown.

SPEAKER_02 38:31

Yeah. Yeah, that's a yeah, that's old age. Yeah, due to old age. Uh-huh. Yeah. Can you imagine just like like evolution was like, hey, bro, I can give you these gills so you can continue living under the water with no like repercussions. They're like, no, I'm good. I like my lungs. I like my lungs. Yeah. The whale's pissed.

SPEAKER_03 38:52

Yeah, it is. It needs air, but it can dive so deep.

SPEAKER_02 38:56

Yep. It's wild. I mean, a lot uh I a lot of those creatures that are in that like in the water like that that still have lungs, like whales, dolphins. It's it's actually crazy. Even sea turtles, like, are we serious? Like, how are you turtles are crazy? How do you do that? So they live forever. Yeah, they do, bro. I'm 100 years old. I'm 150 years old, bro! You so totally rock, squirt. Anyway, we're getting off onto a whole another topic. Today we're talking about theme parks, stuff with rides, and I guess whales. Because I would have never considered SeaWorld a theme park, but the theme is the sea, the theme is the sea.

SPEAKER_01 39:43

Yeah, that's the thing. And they have rides at SeaWorld.

SPEAKER_02 39:46

They did have rides at yes, they did have rides at SeaWorld. So I guess it could be because it's not technically an aquarium, right? It's an attraction.

SPEAKER_01 39:54

Like animal kingdom. It's like mostly a zoo, but with a little bit of rides.

SPEAKER_02 39:59

Yeah, I got it. It's a little razzle dazzle. Yeah, well look, they judged it up with some rides. Yeah, yeah. That's what they did. Yeah, I think.

SPEAKER_03 40:05

It's an insurance policy. Roller coaster.

SPEAKER_02 40:10

Hey, can we make this roller coaster dive in with the orcas? Everybody just gotta hold their breath for like half a second.

SPEAKER_03 40:18

No, but what we can do is we can create a tunnel that goes underneath the water. It's completely safe. Nobody will get decapitated, I promise.

SPEAKER_02 40:27

It's totally safe.

SPEAKER_03 40:28

Totally safe.

SPEAKER_02 40:30

We're gonna send this ride under. What we're gonna do is we're gonna build a ballroom and we're gonna make it totally safe. It's totally gonna be safe. So anyway,

Six Flags Memories And Starter Coasters

SPEAKER_02 40:39

um, I remember as a kid, and I'm sure Miss Meese remembers too, when we went to Six Flags. We went to Six Flags often.

SPEAKER_01 40:48

We did.

SPEAKER_02 40:49

Yeah, and it was all the time. It was a it was a good, it was always a good time. And I remember like gradually, you know, graduating on each ride. You know, because you know, when you're when you're when you're a kid, you kinda like, you know, you're only you're only so tall, you can get on the ride, whatever, but then when you're tall enough, you're like, ah, I don't know, I don't know, like I'm not super daring. But then you try it, and then you're like, yeah, I kind of want to do something else. Like you go with the you go with like like Colossus was a good starter coaster, right? Like you could got the That was my first one. Yeah, so Colossus was Colossus. Yeah, it was a good starter coaster. Like it didn't have any loops or any crazy like you got to experience what a roller coaster was about. Get to throw your hands in the air like you just don't care. And then they and then we had the one, um oh my god, I don't remember which one it was, but it had the one loop. It had the one loop, and so it was kind of like that was the next step, and then it was like after that, Viper, which had like it like that that ride was fucking nuts because it's like the first drop, I mean you are just looking right at the ground and you're just off to the races, and there's like three loops, then you're doing some corkscrews, and then just fucking hitting some G's every fucking where you go, and it's like what a time that was. Does anybody have anything like from their childhood they remember always going to a theme park? Or just been to the theme park that they remember that stuck out to them?

SPEAKER_03 42:22

Um I mean shit, for the longest time I went to King's Island probably every summer from like probably from like 12 or 13 to 17.

SPEAKER_02 42:39

Oh wow.

SPEAKER_03 42:40

I feel like I feel like I got a gold pass like every single year because it was like an easy place for my parents to just dump me off at. Makes sense, you know, and then by the time I started driving, like when I got my license at 17, I and I had my own job, I just kept buying like I I was then buying my own gold pass, and it's like free parking, and you get discount on drinks and sodas and food. So it was kind of it made sense, like for that to be a thing to do in the summer. Um I feel like though my favorite was probably Cedar Point for a while. I did enjoy Cedar Point's rides, but Kings Island I had easier access to, so it feels like a favorite by bias.

SPEAKER_02 43:28

Well, much it was it's much closer than Cedar Point, that's for damn sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so the the convenience for that I can I can imagine one out mostly.

SPEAKER_03 43:37

Yeah. I I yeah, and like Kings Island had some good rides over the years. I haven't been there, I haven't been there in a few years. Uh fuck, I think the last time I went was probably five or six years ago.

SPEAKER_02 43:53

Was Firehawk was Firehawk still a thing?

SPEAKER_03 43:56

Is Firehawk still there? It just I was gonna say. Like wait, what's over there now? Oh my god. Um or is it that Banshee ride? Where's the Banshee ride?

SPEAKER_02 44:09

Uh I know a couple have came and went. Um, like I said, I know Firehawk went went. I'm trying to remember what the fuck.

SPEAKER_03 44:17

Man, there is something back there though.

SPEAKER_02 44:20

I know they still have like Flight of Fear or whatever the fuck it's called.

SPEAKER_03 44:24

Um, really?

SPEAKER_02 44:29

Hence the name Flight of Fear.

SPEAKER_03 44:31

Yeah. Well, they really dialed up that alien shit. And then after they traveled the park, it just became like it was aliens, but they made it real lazy.

SPEAKER_02 44:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 44:42

It used to be so dark back there.

SPEAKER_02 44:44

No, you're not wrong. You're not wrong.

SPEAKER_03 44:46

And like the ride itself used to be like pitch fucking black.

SPEAKER_02 44:49

Yes. I do I do remember being on that, and it was like it was constantly hard to see while you stand in the line. Uh-huh. And you they just made it super dark for no reason whatsoever. Now it worked when you got on the ride. Like, for sure. When you got on the ride, it it like the atmosphere, the ambiance, and just going into the pitch black unknown type deal. That that worked for the ride. Like it was it was pretty exhilarating, but for the most part, it was like, can you get some more lights here?

SPEAKER_03 45:15

Wow, can we get some emergency striping?

SPEAKER_02 45:19

Shine a light on these aliens or something. I think they uh what was it? I I think they had a back to the future ride or something like that. I don't remember what it was called. Switchback, maybe, maybe that's what it was called. It used to be. And it was just like it would beat people up, and I think they tore that down like a long time ago. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 45:39

Man, the beast roller coaster beat me up. And Son of Beast. One to punched, beat me up.

SPEAKER_02 45:46

Son of Beast got which one got taken down? Son of Beast or the Beast? Son of Beast.

SPEAKER_01 45:50

Son of Beast gave me whiplash, like legitimately ended up with like emergency services. Sheesh. I couldn't even make that up. But that's it was a lot of complaints. They like got sued over that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 46:02

Well, they had a serious injury. Uh she got whiplash. I mean, that is a serious injury, but I'm saying I'm saying like no, I'm just saying that tracks.

SPEAKER_01 46:12

I'm not saying me. I'm just saying that tracks. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 46:14

Yeah, yeah. The ride. So I think part of the problem was it was a wooden roller coaster with a metal loop.

SPEAKER_06 46:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 46:20

So the tracks, the tracks always had complications because it's just two different systems trying to blend into one. And uh what they should have done is built it with like the metal track and then just had like the wooden roller coaster facade for safety. But they wanted to be the first wooden roller coaster with a fucking loop in it, and yeah, people got hurt. The r the one of the trains got like stuck on the loop and it like jerked a lot of people, and people went to the hospital.

SPEAKER_02 46:52

Yeah, that seems that seems like a true ride. Yeah, that's true.

SPEAKER_03 46:58

I do remember liking that ride though. Like when it worked, it worked. It was really good. It was fucking fast as shit, too. Like 75 miles an hour or something.

SPEAKER_02 47:07

As as they're as you're getting off the ride, they're like, and here's your free neck brace. Here's your free neck brace. Put some ice on it, it'll be okay. Here's your free neck brace.

SPEAKER_03 47:15

I don't think I can ride the beast anymore. One, I think I'm like too tall, but uh two, I think that it wrecks your body. Yeah. Like the beast is such a rough ride now.

SPEAKER_01 47:27

Okay, so I don't like the thrill parks, adventure parks. That's not me. You know, theme parks can get behind. This conversation, every single experience at King's Island has made me want to die.

SPEAKER_03 47:46

That's so fair. Some rides, some rides are actually not like they feel like they're not safe at all. And I'm like, how did this pass?

SPEAKER_01 47:55

Yeah, you'd be surprised if I went on Diamondback.

SPEAKER_02 47:58

I Diamond Pack was the other one that I was thinking of. I hated Diamond Back.

SPEAKER_03 48:04

That one, I think that ride came out in 2009. That was my senior year of high school. I wrote that ride so many times.

SPEAKER_02 48:11

So why didn't you like why don't why don't you like Diamondback Miz Me scenes?

SPEAKER_01 48:15

Okay, uh, it's so fucking fast. Um I just remember screaming the entire time, just keeping my eyes closed and screaming the entire time.

SPEAKER_02 48:24

You mean the giant roller coaster is working as advertised, and that's why you hate roller coasters so much.

SPEAKER_01 48:33

But my toxic trait is I always go on them, and I'm like, well, maybe I don't maybe I hate them less, but then I just keep hating them.

Thrill Parks Versus Theme Parks

SPEAKER_02 48:41

You just keep hating them. Yeah, it you know what it is? It's the curiosity. You're like, I wonder if I could do this one, and then you do it and you're like, I immediately regret my decision after the first drop.

SPEAKER_01 48:51

And here's the thing that's why I think there's a big difference between like a thrill adventure park and a theme park. Because I was at Disney and there's no ride that is like crazy insane, really. Like they're fun and they like it's just a different type of ride. They're not like trying to make you shit your pants.

SPEAKER_02 49:14

As opposed to Cedar Point that literally has um which one is it?

SPEAKER_01 49:20

It's the uh like Trigger Coaster.

SPEAKER_02 49:23

The the racer or whatever it is, the the one that top dragster. That one shoots you from like zero to zero to like 100 in like 60 seconds. Yeah, yeah, 120 in like 60 seconds. Now, the fun part about that ride is it because it it'll shoot you off, goes straight up, it'll do a little bit of you'll do like a little bit of a turn, and then you'll come straight back down. So you just kind of do a whole U and you come straight down to the ground. And the fun fact about that ride is it'll shoot you up, and if you don't make it, because sometimes it won't make it around the cur around the bend, you won't make it to the top, it'll come back down and they'll have to shoot you back up.

SPEAKER_03 50:01

Yeah, I think it's a weight weight distribution thing. So they have to like I think they charge it up on the second.

SPEAKER_02 50:10

Yeah, yeah, yeah. To get it top head to get the front heavy enough to.

SPEAKER_01 50:13

I would never go on that ride because I would be in the front.

SPEAKER_02 50:16

It was so not a fun ride. Yes, top, top, top straxter is one of the best rides I've ever been on.

SPEAKER_03 50:25

420 feet in the air, 120 miles.

SPEAKER_02 50:28

What is wrong with you too? It's crazy.

SPEAKER_03 50:31

It's nuts. Have you have you done the other one? Oh, oh, King's Island has they do have that uh the Giga Coaster. That's what I it's called Orion.

SPEAKER_02 50:39

Yes, that's the one. Yeah, yeah. I have not been there since they opened it.

SPEAKER_03 50:44

I think it's back there where Firehawk is.

SPEAKER_02 50:46

Really? So so it probably took the place of where where Firehawk fire because Firehawk got.

SPEAKER_03 50:50

I don't think I've ridden Orion yet.

SPEAKER_02 50:52

See, I need I don't believe I have. That would be the only reason I go to King's Island. Yeah, I think the only time we ever go to Kings Island is at water park. But I uh just to that's fair. Yeah, just to continue the conversation with Miss Meese here, that's where you're you're not wrong because Disney World has been around for a long time. I know it, I I don't know how many rides it has. I've not been. I'm assuming it's got plenty to choose from, but it does have like it has all these subsets of like you got Harry Potter, you got Mario World, you got all these things in in Disney World, as opposed to, and I'm just gonna use Cedar Point because honestly, even Six Flags, really, because let's be real here, Batman the Ride, that's the most G's I've ever taken in my life, like ever. And like it's it's nutso. So it's like I can see the difference between a thrill, uh thrill park and a theme park, you know, just that amusement park type thing.

SPEAKER_05 51:52

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 51:53

So our Disney expert, Miss Meese. If you would like to give us shed some light on what what's Disney World like?

Disney World Details And Tactics

SPEAKER_02 52:05

What's the what's what's the vibe?

SPEAKER_01 52:07

The most magical fucking place on earth.

SPEAKER_02 52:09

And they mean it, like that's that's true.

SPEAKER_01 52:11

And they mean it. And they mean it. Oh my god, I have fallen in absolute love. And like we went to Disneyland when we were younger, but like young, and like it's not a memorable place for me. You know, our relationship with Six Flags. Most of what I remember is between SeaWorld and Six Flags, where lady like, you know, so Disney World. I first experienced Animal Kingdom, and there's like four parks down there that make up like Disney World, right? So you have the Animal Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom, which Magic Kingdom is like the coup de gras of all things Disney. It's fantastic. But Animal Kingdom is so cool. I'm an obsession with zoos right now. I love zoos, and like it's a super chill park, and they have some rides. And when I'm this ride called Mount Everest, and it like tells the story of a Yeti and Ode to Yeti, you know. Um and then you go all the way up to the top of the mountain and then you go backwards, and then it's such a blast. Like it's not that's a good ride. It's such a good ride, like it's not super fast, like, but it's fun. Like, and I absolutely love that. That was like the first the first trip there. We went on a safari.

SPEAKER_02 53:37

That's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_01 53:38

A draft pass in front of our little van that we were in.

SPEAKER_02 53:42

That's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_01 53:43

Yeah, it was so much fun. And then we went to Magic Kingdom like the month the next month. And boy oh boy, is that magical? They have a parade, and it's just a it's like an immersive experience, and I think that's what I really like about like a theme park is even when I'm not on a ride, because I'm not a big ride girly, I get motion sick, like I fight for my life.

SPEAKER_06 54:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 54:08

If it's just like ride space and just hold stuff, but like it's good and it's a whole immersive experience, and I miss Disney so much, and I can't wait to go back. But you spend like $800 a day.

SPEAKER_02 54:20

It's expensive, it's a very expensive. Yeah, that's that's all I've ever heard.

SPEAKER_03 54:25

Would you like to know a fun fact about Magic Kingdom?

SPEAKER_01 54:28

Obviously. I absolutely do.

SPEAKER_03 54:30

Magic Kingdom is a no-fly zone because Walt didn't want people to get taken out of the fact that they're in a fantasy land. No, no. So there's no airplanes that are allowed to fly over Magic Kingdom.

SPEAKER_01 54:42

That is unsurprising, fascinating. That was he thought of everything. There's so much detail when you go through the parks, like they pump smell everything.

SPEAKER_03 54:57

They pump smell into the streets of Magic Kingdom, the streets of Magic Kingdom. So when you walk past the shops and it's a candy shop, they have like smells that are like pumped out to like draw people in. It's not necessarily there's really candy in there, but they artificially pump smells out there.

SPEAKER_01 55:16

They entice you.

SPEAKER_03 55:18

Yeah, wow. It's like it's like capitalism at its at its finest. Like more, yeah, at its more magical. Yeah. Yeah, because it's pretty it's pretty invasive, but you sign up for that invasion by buying the ticket. Yep.

SPEAKER_01 55:34

Literally, you go in the park now and you have to scan your fingerprint to get your ticket.

SPEAKER_03 55:40

Oh, they don't do the wristbands no more.

SPEAKER_01 55:42

It's the they have balls and it's a fingerprint. They got balls. They're like little orbs. And they're like putting it.

SPEAKER_03 55:53

I miss the wristband, dude. I got a dope wristband from when I went. It's a little Spider-Man wristband. Oh, that's it.

SPEAKER_01 55:59

So they still have wristbands, so you can still you can still use that. I don't know if okay, so you scan your your phone on like you do that and you do a fingerprint. But that wristband, you can still use it like at the shops, like with the photographers. Like, you can still use that. That's it. But it's like 50 bucks.

SPEAKER_03 56:22

Yeah. I want to go back to Hollywood Studios so I can see Star Wars Land.

unknown 56:28

Oh.

SPEAKER_03 56:29

Actually, I'll just do Star Wars here in Disneyland, like just south of Disney.

SPEAKER_01 56:33

That's the one I haven't been to.

SPEAKER_03 56:35

Yeah, I want to because like when when I went when I went in 2019, I was 29, it was my 29th birthday. Um they were building the Star Wars stuff. Like the the Millennium Falcon wasn't finished yet. Uh, but they had some of Star Wars there. Yeah. You you couldn't like build the lightsaber or none of that. Uh, but they did have a couple experiences, but it wasn't fully finished, and they they finished like literally the month after I went, uh or some shit.

unknown 57:10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 57:11

Gosh, it's so magical. The timing. See, I I would like to take a trip to Disney World at least once, just experience it, you know, just to get the experience.

SPEAKER_03 57:19

Yeah. I'm gonna do Disneyland soon, I think. Maybe in a couple years.

SPEAKER_02 57:23

It it's at least worth it. You know, it's a it's at least worth one trip so you can so you can get uh get an idea of what it's like.

SPEAKER_03 57:29

Um they have like a Marvel thing too.

SPEAKER_02 57:32

They do, because I can't I keep forgetting that Mar uh Disney owns Marvel, and I I want to save the other thing that they that they own for later because um I kinda wanna I kinda wanna see this theme park be made, but is Templeton with us?

SPEAKER_03 57:46

Templeton, is you with us?

SPEAKER_02 57:49

Templeton in the room. Hello. Templeton. How pick up your phone? If you're talking, your mic is muted. I don't know. Okay, well I wanted to see if he had recently been to uh King's Island and see if he had a favorite coaster that he wanted to that he wrote or anything like that. So anyway, um hopefully he's okay. Do we have a theme park that we're not a fan of? Is it has there ever been one you've been to that you're like eh, I could I could go without this?

SPEAKER_01 58:39

King's Island.

SPEAKER_03 58:41

That's so funny.

SPEAKER_01 58:46

Like I have not been up to King's Island in 12 years. In 12 years. I and the only reason I went then was for my ex-husband's family's picnic. Yeah, and I broke my leg. Oh. So you remember that? Yeah, you came home and I was like bleeding, like it was my leg was like mangled.

SPEAKER_02 59:09

Yeah, that's right. That was that was pretty fucking awful. You know, I'm I'm I'm not gonna lie, like King's Island. I I that's why I said like the only time I ever go there anymore is for like water park, and I haven't been there in fucking years, dude. But any time we would go would just be to go simply for the water park in my adult years.

SPEAKER_01 59:31

Teenage. We did the same thing over. Like, I feel like we road rides, but it was uh not without a water park score.

SPEAKER_02 59:39

Correct, correct. Like I I feel like we focused a lot on the water park because I mean the only time we ever went, obviously, was in during the summer. Um it just be hot, you know, and stand in those lines and shit. It was just it was god awful. So it's like, why waste your time standing in line frying when we can just you know go over here and you know jump into the wave pool and and and cool off and have a good time. That wave pool of King's Island used to be so much fun. It was so much fun. And then of course and then of course they had um now it's a different it's a different kind of park, but they had the beach across the uh across the uh highway, which is closed down.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:18

The beach raised us. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:20

It honestly did come to the beach, come to the beach. So it's like But yeah, the King's Island, it's just for me, honestly, I could take it or leave it. Now, now with um the the with uh uh who you call it Cedar um Cedar buying them, if they begin to add more coasters, obviously I'll probably be too old for them by that time, but who knows? But just I could see them growing, you know what I mean? Like I could see Cedar adding some decent rides because after being to Cedar Point, it was like you almost feel like you know, you feel let down when you go to King's Island.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:01

Yeah, I'm only holding jackets and purses when I go to King's Island at this point, so I just need my funnel cake and my like blue ice cream, and I'm Yeah, and you're good to go.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:12

You're good to go. Because Grizz, I mean, you've been to both Cedar Point and Kings Island, so it's like which rides would you think are more appealing or more thrilling to be on? Those at Cedar Point or those at Kings Island? Kings Island has some good staples, but like Cedar Point, you look any direction and they got so man, this is tough because I feel like the things that I like to do, King's Island kind of fulfills that.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:44

Cause like I like the food options, you know. I mean, some of it's overpriced. Like, I wouldn't do Skyline in there. Oh, no, no. Unless like I was doing a whole day, and you know, like how kind of how you treat food at Disney, right? You don't really want to eat at Disney unless you unless you're planning for like, okay, this day I have to eat at Disney.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:05

Disney food is actually low-key cheap for theme park food. You can get most things at Disney for like six dollars or less for like each item.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:18

Yeah, but it's like snacks though, like the pretzel or the chips or whatever.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:22

But like I got burger and fries for $12.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:25

Hey, that's not bad. That's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:28

Like, they're free, and I think that's deliberate though, but they also allow you to bring in your own food.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:34

Oh, that that might be new. That's a game changer. Yeah, I mean, like, because when I was growing up and we would do King's Island and we spent the whole day there, we would like bring a fucking cooler and picnic.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:44

I feel like King's Island's food is more expensive though. And like I said, that could be a Disney tactic. Like, you're already paying this much, like, let's at least make it more affordable in the park.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:55

That would be nice, but I just remember when I went, man, we spent probably six hundred dollars on food in five days. Oh shit. Yeah, dude. It was crazy. Can we just stay at like the no, no, no, at Disney.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:09

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:10

With two people. Like we sp I remember the total price tag, I think, was over two grand for sure. Jeez. They might have for granted, we did stay at like a resort, like one of the cheaper resorts. Uh, we opted out of the meal plan and just bought food as we went, and I feel like we should have got the meal plan, to be honest.

SPEAKER_01 1:03:34

Okay, so that could be a little bit different because like in the parks and on their resort is different. So it literally says like quick service meals are $15 to $20 per adult, and snacks are six to ten dollars.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:48

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:03:49

And so like that's what you're getting in the park, is those quick service meals and snacks. So you're paying like $15 max for an item, really. Like, you're not paying that much when you're in the park. Right. But if you're at their resort sitting down, you're paying. Yeah, there are.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:05

Yeah, like some I remember the because they had like a cafeteria cafe situation at the resort we stayed at. That wasn't that badly priced. Um, but we did we did do like one of the dinner in a show things on one of the other resorts, and that was pretty expensive. Yeah, you can spend money on it. Yeah, you're gonna spend money on it.

SPEAKER_02 1:04:25

Yeah, yeah. So maybe, maybe, maybe, Grizz, next time you go. You know what I mean? Maybe next time. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:34

I mean, the next time I go, I'm gonna go by myself, and I'm probably just gonna take drugs and not eat anything.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:40

No, here's the thing the next time you go, go with me, and we can split food.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:48

I just I am I am a slut for spitting.

SPEAKER_02 1:04:51

My fucking guy. I'm gonna just do drugs and not eat. I'm gonna just do drugs and not eat.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:00

I'm just being honest.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:01

No, that's that's fair.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:02

I mean, that's also not like a terrible idea, if I'm being honest with you.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:06

Not at all.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:06

I'd I as long as I got my iced coffee in the morning, you good, girl. I've been turned on to this iced coffee thing. Don't get me wrong, I like I still like a hot latte or a hot black coffee.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:18

But no, welcome to the iced coffee side things. It's so much better over here.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:24

Can I share a recipe that was shared with me by a friend of mine that I swear by? It's so it's just cold brew with ice, splash of half and half, and splash of maple syrup. That shit will change your life.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:41

It actually sounds good. I'm not even a coffee drinker.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:43

Like, I'm telling you right now, I still fuck with maple, like that mate, the maple syrup is just try it. You could do honey if you don't want maple syrup.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:53

No, from a mouse perspective, I'm fine with it. But like maple syrup is just so troublesome. Just try it.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:00

Nah, just try it. Try it.

unknown 1:06:03

Just try it.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:04

I promise. You're like Okay. You're you're gonna like the way it tastes, I guarantee.

SPEAKER_06 1:06:11

Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:12

You know what? You sold me there, buddy.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:14

Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:15

She said, okay, no notes, I'm gonna go for it. You son of a bitch, I'm in. Son of a bitch, I'm in. That's actually wild. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So anyway, I mean uh Chris, did you did you say you had one that had a theme park you weren't sure? That you could go without.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:33

That I wasn't that I could go without? Yeah. Um can I can I say SeaWorld? You can.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:44

Have you ever been?

SPEAKER_02 1:06:45

Listen, he you know what he's gonna say? Only because he wants the orcas to be free. That's the only reason that's the only reason why he can do without it. Free the orcas, my guy.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:57

I'm so happy we're back to this.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:58

Free the big fish. Like, we don't they what are we doing? What are we doing? What are we doing? What are we doing? But that's actually kind of funny.

SPEAKER_01 1:07:06

She said, King's Island, and he's like, see, we're all yeah, that was just revenge, I think. Did you just like how chair?

SPEAKER_03 1:07:16

Did I just did I just hold a grudge?

SPEAKER_02 1:07:19

Did you just hold a grudge?

SPEAKER_01 1:07:20

Yes. And we saw it in real time.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:23

In real time. In real time. Can I say C World? She's like, yeah, you're right. This is not the grudge I'm looking for. Grid's like, holy shit, it worked. Oh shit.

SPEAKER_01 1:07:39

No, but there is I have to come back to this.

SeaWorld Concerts Get Unhinged

SPEAKER_01 1:07:42

Hold please.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:43

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 1:07:43

We are not leaving SeaWorld. We are not leaving Sea World.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:46

Oh shit, we're not leaving SeaWorld. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 1:07:49

Oh shit. Hold on.

SPEAKER_06 1:07:50

Oh shit.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:00

This is a baby a woman with her baby.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:02

What?

SPEAKER_02 1:08:03

What is happening? Is she twerking? Yes. At SeaWorld? Why?

SPEAKER_00 1:08:09

Because the yin yang twins are there.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:12

No. No. No.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:16

Why is she twerking with her baby?

SPEAKER_02 1:08:18

Bro, no. No. And they're on the whole car. No. At SeaWorld? At SeaWorld. Damn. Who who okayed this? What? Seriously.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:33

I'm sorry. That was so important for me to say that.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:36

They have to be hurting.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:37

I told you they are literally like millennial parents swinging their fucking babies around.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:41

Damn.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:42

Sea World! The orchids are the least of your concern.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:46

They have to be hurting. Either SeaWorld's hurting or the Yin Yang twins are hurting. One of the two. Could be a combination of both. But what are we what CWR? What are you doing?

SPEAKER_03 1:08:57

With their children is crazy.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:59

Sea World really lost the plot.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:02

Literally, baby hanging in front of her, and she just going to town. Going to town.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:06

I wasn't kidding. I was not kidding when I opened that up. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:11

I don't know how I feel about that.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:13

Like you know what? You know what I say to that? What's that? We only live once. Y'all you may as well twerk twerk at SeaWorld with your child.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:26

Put it on the twerk, twerk, twerk, twerk, twerk, twerk.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:30

She was alright.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:32

Best case scenario, that kid lives. Worst case scenario, you get to tell a story. I mean, yeah, I guess.

SPEAKER_01 1:09:42

Because she actually she had her legs up in that seat, actually. When you go back to that, she was suspended in the air with a baby on her back.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:50

That is crazy, right?

SPEAKER_01 1:09:50

She would have fallen, that would have been catastrophic.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:53

Yeah, because that's but hang on. Did she fall? No, she didn't.

SPEAKER_01 1:10:00

She's she's still living.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:01

She's still living.

SPEAKER_01 1:10:02

That was a risk assessment for her.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:04

But that's fucking crazy, dude. Like Yin Yang twins performing at SeaWorld. Brother, at SeaWorld. Yeah, who is her opener?

SPEAKER_01 1:10:13

Free Willy, I guess. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:14

That's just like escaping. Jumping over the crowd. Alright, now that our orca's gone, put your hands on the knees and hit a boat on a thud. Oh, nah, nah. That's that's crazy. That's crazy. I I couldn't imagine the yin-yang twins performing. Nah, I can't. I can't. I can't do it.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:40

You don't have to imagine.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:41

No, listen, for my own sanity, for my own sanity. I don't want to see it. I don't, I don't wanna see it. I don't wanna see it.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:49

Take that shit

Dream Theme Parks We Want

SPEAKER_03 1:10:50

out of here.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:50

Yeah, get that shit out of here. So anyway, um I was thinking about like a theme park y'all would like to see come to life, right? So I keep forgetting that Disney owns a lot of things now. One of them being Predator, right? The Predator franchise. I see where you're headed. You see where I'm headed.

SPEAKER_01 1:11:15

That seems scary.

SPEAKER_02 1:11:17

You see where I'm headed? Like, could you imagine making like a chopper? Bro, and have Arnold show up? Like, are we serious? Fuck a ginyang twin. Like, give me Arnold Schwarzenegger. Give it a chopper. Do it now. Do it now. Like, like, like a predator theme park, though, like that would be you know, like it, like it would just have like this jungle entrance, right? And and it would just be like you can even call it Badlands, you know what I'm saying? Badlands, yeah, right? Because Predator Badlands, and then like have the dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun playing as you walk.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:02

They own alien now, they do, yes.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:04

They do that. They they do call it alien, they could do it AVP.

SPEAKER_01 1:12:07

Actually, it seems really cool.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:08

Yeah, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_03 1:12:10

I'm really warming up to the there's a lot, there's a lot they could do in, and they're choosing to not, and I take that person.

SPEAKER_01 1:12:17

It's coming, it's coming. It's on their doctor. That's not if they're gonna monetize it, they can't. If they can, they will.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:24

I'm hoping they're listening. I'm hoping they're listening, and they're lucky. They're always listening. It's actually not a bad fucking idea. Because, like, imagine the Halloweens you could have at the Badlands, at Badlands in a Disney.

SPEAKER_01 1:12:36

Yeah, plot twist that's coming Halloween 2027.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:39

Are you fucking kidding me? Listen, if that happens, I'm gonna be like, Disney's fucking listening.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:45

Yeah, right. And I'll take two percent.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:48

That's right. I'm not greedy. 2% is fine.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:52

2% just fine. Just like I like my milk. I'm kidding.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:56

I like whole milk. Just I like my milk, skimmed off the top. No, I'm just kidding. Anyway. Anyway, but no, I feel like that would be that that'd be a good time. Like you could you could have like almost like uh you could also do like one of those um uh uh 4D rides that they do a lot of the times with like Marvel and all that kind of stuff.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:17

You can do like Well Disney has those rides where you like you're like strapped in and then you got like the fucking and it they pump like smells in, so it smells like you're flying over a tree, right?

SPEAKER_02 1:13:32

Yeah, it's very immersive. Could you imagine being like covered in fake blood as you leave? It's just like sticky red corn syrup, and you're just like that would actually be wild.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:49

They would never do that, but that would be wild.

SPEAKER_02 1:13:51

That would be wild. Yeah, that wouldn't happen because no way, no shot.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:54

Unless, unless they got everybody to wear like uh what you wear when you visit Niagara Falls. Yeah, poncho. That's the word I'm looking for.

SPEAKER_01 1:14:05

He couldn't think of poncho. He said what you wear when you go to Niagara Falls.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:09

Okay, so we gotta No, no, I mean it's late for us.

SPEAKER_01 1:14:13

We just gotta go back three hours. We gotta go back back into time, okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:21

Uh it's okay, Gris.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:24

If everyone wore a poncho, then maybe they would do it.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:29

Everybody wore a pon. Listen, you have to wear the poncho. Why? Because you're gonna have a lot of like red corn stuff. You're gonna wanna wear the poncho. You're gonna wanna wear it. You're gonna wanna wear the poncho. But could you imagine how dope that would be? Like, I feel like that would be a fun, fun fucking theme park. I agree. You know what I mean? And even do like a uh, because imagine doing like a corn maze almost, but like a uh jungle walk in the Badlands with Predator, and like every now and then you could see like the three dots coming on you, and you're like, holy shit. You feel like you're being stalked by Predator the entire time.

SPEAKER_03 1:15:00

That would actually be awesome. People with anxiety would hate it.

SPEAKER_01 1:15:04

Oh yeah. No, I think we've arrived at why I hate those types of rides.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:11

No, I get it, but it wouldn't even be a ride, you'd just be walking through it. It'd be chill, but not chill, right? Because again, it's a corn maze almost. It'd be more like a jungle walk. Like I said, you'd have like this.

SPEAKER_03 1:15:22

And I think that you'd have to have situations where people could get got. Right. Like some people don't make it out. Yeah, they get got.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:30

Like, I would love that. I think that would be really cool. Why would you put that in there?

SPEAKER_01 1:15:36

Like, you could not.

SPEAKER_03 1:15:37

Well, I mean, not for real, not for real, for real. Like like the predator gets you, and then you get like you go through the city.

SPEAKER_01 1:15:43

Did you say not for real for real? Yeah, like Disney's not really gonna kill me. Yeah, like yeah, they're not gonna they're not gonna take it down. Yeah, I got that far. They're not gonna take out that far in the concept.

SPEAKER_02 1:15:52

They're not gonna take you to the Disney dungeon and off you. Like, what are we talking about?

SPEAKER_03 1:15:57

They're not gonna take you to like Trump's house or anything.

SPEAKER_02 1:16:01

Damn, damn.

SPEAKER_03 1:16:02

Oh, sorry.

SPEAKER_02 1:16:03

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

unknown 1:16:05

What?

SPEAKER_02 1:16:06

Trump's house?

SPEAKER_01 1:16:10

Well, he's supposed to get like a five-hour speech in a hundred-degree heat tomorrow, something like that. Oh well, she said fingers crossed.

SPEAKER_02 1:16:18

No, but I like I see where you're going with it, Grizz. Like they get they get taken off, they get taken off the path, and then they have to take a different path, you know what I'm saying? Like that would be I think that'd be pretty cool. The afterlife path. Yeah, the afterlife path. This is what it looks like after the predator gets you.

SPEAKER_01 1:16:34

Like, can you please go toward the light? Can you please go towards the light down? There's the light down there.

SPEAKER_02 1:16:40

You have to wait for your party right here. Yo, could you imagine? Like, if you get caught, you have to be taken off the trail and you gotta wait for your party at the end. Damn. And then you're like, damn, now I gotta go back through if you want to. Like, if you want to see if you can make it.

SPEAKER_03 1:16:53

If you think you can make it, yeah, if you think you can make it. But you already got once.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:01

I think we're on to something here.

SPEAKER_01 1:17:04

I have to pivot at Disney.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:07

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 1:17:07

Haunted Mansion.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:08

They snatched people.

SPEAKER_01 1:17:10

I just went. I went with I went with 10 people. And only nine made it out. The other half wanted to go on Haunted Mansion. Half of the group got fucking stuck on the ride and they had to shut it down.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:26

They got caught. See, that was that was that was the haunted mansion claiming. Claiming more souls.

SPEAKER_01 1:17:34

You get stuck on a ride, what do you do? And not logjammer.

SPEAKER_02 1:17:37

Oh man, you remember that? Got stuck on logjammer, had to walk, had to walk. Have I been stuck on a ride before?

SPEAKER_01 1:17:45

People get stuck so much right now, and maybe it's just the new cut news coverage about it, but they're always in the worst situations, which is also why I don't fuck with roller coasters. Like anybody know my luck?

SPEAKER_02 1:17:56

It's that like when they get caught like in the loop, like and everybody's hanging upside down. You're like, why could you not have waited?

SPEAKER_01 1:18:06

Yeah. Dangling over the Gulf of fucking Mexico. Like, what are we talking about?

SPEAKER_03 1:18:11

Yeah. I would just die.

SPEAKER_02 1:18:13

You know, you know, not gonna lie though, that I think that I think that helps with the aesthetic with Cedar Point because it's literally right there on the lake. And it's really cool. Yeah, it's really cool when you go up on these roller coasters, you just look out and all you see is water. It's so cool. It is one of the coolest things ever.

SPEAKER_01 1:18:31

Chris hit the nail on the head. People with anxiety. People with anxiety.

SPEAKER_02 1:18:36

People with anxiety canola. Because they can't see land to the land. That's crazy. But no, that would be my that would be my idea, right? Like I would like to see that come to life as part of a theme park. Okay, does anybody have anything that they want to add to that? Do they have something that they could possibly think of as a theme park?

SPEAKER_01 1:19:01

What can I think of as a theme park?

SPEAKER_02 1:19:03

Yeah, like like can you think of anything that like like something that you could theme inside of Disney World or a theme park on it all on its own? Because I feel like something like this, right, back here, one of my favorite animes, could easily become part of like make its own theme park. I think they've thought about opening one, I'm not sure. Because you could easily, it would probably be successful, very successful. You could easily do something of like a like a Shenron kind of kind of ride where it's like the dragon, but it's super long and it goes throughout the whole. I'm saying it's just it's here, it's already there.

SPEAKER_01 1:19:40

Yeah, has anybody has anybody seen the movie Elemental from Disney?

SPEAKER_03 1:19:47

Uh have I?

SPEAKER_01 1:19:48

Maybe it's an adorable little movie, and it's about the elements, and they're all in the style. Yes, yes, yes, I have. That would be the coolest experience, and I feel like it'd be super educational too. Like it would be dope. I can imagine you could have like a water ride, like something that like does something with air, like uh it would be fire, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:20:11

Avatar last airbender would make a good theme park.

SPEAKER_01 1:20:15

They've had to have done an avatar. I don't think they have section.

SPEAKER_03 1:20:18

I don't think they have they've done avatar the like blue people.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:21

Yeah, they've done that one, but they've seen them. Yeah, they've not done that.

SPEAKER_01 1:20:25

I don't know fuck shit about avatar. Let me start there.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:28

Which one? That's fair. The blue people or or or Aang.

SPEAKER_03 1:20:38

She's like they've done the live action slash CGI one with like Mr. Grooney Weaver. Yeah. They did that. That actually is a really good theme uh section of Disney. The ride on that one, dude.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:54

The one with the blue people, by the way.

SPEAKER_00 1:20:56

Which I can see. So, like, are we talking about something different? Because like I feel so lost.

SPEAKER_03 1:21:02

So there's Avatar, help me, like the James Cameron Avatar. Okay, there's Avatar Last Airbender, which is the one.

SPEAKER_01 1:21:11

Are does it have anything to do? Does it intersect at all with Avatar?

SPEAKER_03 1:21:17

No, Avatar and then Avatar Last Airbender.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:20

They're two totally different things.

SPEAKER_01 1:21:22

Why the fuck would they do that?

SPEAKER_02 1:21:23

Because why not? Because why not? Yeah, ask James Cameron, ask him. Get all the phone.

SPEAKER_06 1:21:30

What came first?

SPEAKER_02 1:21:31

Uh Avatar the Last Airbender. The last airbender.

SPEAKER_03 1:21:34

I think the word came first.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:38

That's actually crazy.

SPEAKER_03 1:21:40

Piloting something. Actually crazy.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:43

But I think the last airbender came first. Then again, I don't know. Some last longer than others.

SPEAKER_01 1:21:51

There we go.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:52

Wait.

SPEAKER_01 1:21:53

We're back here. Okay, we've arrived.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:56

We're the joke. Full circle. And I don't mean the jerky kind.

SPEAKER_01 1:22:01

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Okay. The joke's right there. We made it back.

SPEAKER_02 1:22:10

We made it back here. After a long, arduous journey, we made it back here.

SPEAKER_03 1:22:16

Sometimes it takes a while to get there. It takes a little while.

SPEAKER_02 1:22:19

It takes a little while. We took the scenic route. We took the Disney World scenic route. That's all we did. The important thing is we got there. We got there. It's about how you finish, not how you start. I need to stop. Hell yeah, brother. I need to stop. But I do love the idea of an elemental themed type deal. Because they could easily do like uh I'm thinking of also like the foods they could do. Like for the air, you could really do like like really do focus, like fluffy cotton candy, right? Like you could really like make airy, you know what I mean? Like really airy stuff. And then for water, you could re I don't know, just do drinks, those are drinks. Yeah, drinks, slushies, whatever, and make some really interesting flavors.

SPEAKER_01 1:23:15

And then for the fire rush, yes, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:18

Yes, like I could, I could see, I could get behind that.

SPEAKER_01 1:23:21

They had these charcoal nuts, like in the in the movie.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:25

They could have like right, and you could do that from because that was that was um uh uh uh the fire oh fire girl and her dad. They were making those, right? Like that. See, so you could easily do that in that in that kind of theme park. Like you could easily just like okay, this is what they're making, blah blah blah. I love that movie.

SPEAKER_01 1:23:44

I'm gonna watch that.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:45

It's really good. I did it is it is turn on right now. Damn, it's pretty well. She said, it's 1240. I'm gonna watch it right now.

SPEAKER_01 1:23:52

It's pretty well. What are we talking about? There's nothing stopping me.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:55

You're not wrong. But Grizz, do you have one or are you kind of more like at a last airbender?

SPEAKER_03 1:24:01

I think I'm gonna leave on a car last airbender.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:04

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:24:05

I mean, it's give it a good go. Uh let me think. Give me two seconds.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:11

She said I don't know the difference. I mean, it's just so we're clear, just so we're clear. I don't think so. That would be a bro.

SPEAKER_01 1:24:21

I don't think so. Ninja, go, Ninja, go. Yeah, that would be so much fun, actually.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:26

Yo, could you imagine? Yeah, dude. Oh my god, and just selling just selling pizza and just selling pizza everywhere. Dude, all the pizza. You know what else would make a good one? Stranger pizza pizza. Breakfast pizza. Stranger Things would be a fantastic

Ninja Turtles Rides And Reality Check

SPEAKER_02 1:24:46

theme park. But honestly, egg goes everywhere. Everything I'm more I'm more turtles than anything, because what the turtles are.

SPEAKER_03 1:24:54

Because you could do a ride, you could do a ride for each one. Right. That's already four rides. That's four rides immediately. Yeah, splitter, the rat, and then shut up. And then you could do shredder themed rides. A diss.

SPEAKER_01 1:25:10

It felt like a slur. It honestly did.

SPEAKER_02 1:25:13

He said it with a hard R too. The rat.

SPEAKER_03 1:25:17

That's crazy.

SPEAKER_02 1:25:22

Leave Splinter alone, bro. He's just trying to teach his kids.

SPEAKER_03 1:25:27

This somehow feels like a hate crime.

SPEAKER_02 1:25:32

The fuck, Grizz. He's just trying to raise his kids. That's all he's trying to do.

SPEAKER_06 1:25:37

I forgot his way.

SPEAKER_01 1:25:40

If you count the rat.

SPEAKER_00 1:25:46

It felt real tough.

SPEAKER_02 1:25:50

Grizz had a real freezer moment just now. If you count the rat.

SPEAKER_00 1:25:54

Oh my god. Like, come on, brother.

SPEAKER_01 1:25:59

Yeah. He was a good dude, man. He was a good dude.

SPEAKER_02 1:26:04

I know. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. Those are it's like that's it, that's their stepdad. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_01 1:26:09

Like he raised kids that want them in his no responsibility for them. Exactly.

SPEAKER_02 1:26:13

He just found some turtles. Right. He just found some turtles. Said, yo, these these guys, I bet, could be some serious ninjas. Check this shit out. Let me teach them the ways.

SPEAKER_01 1:26:23

And they stressed him the fuck out all the time.

SPEAKER_02 1:26:28

Especially Michelangelo. Michelangelo and Raphael, I feel like were like the most of a handful, because Rafael just always getting in trouble getting into a fight. And Michelangelo, yeah, always mad, always angry. And then Michelangelo just can't take shit seriously.

SPEAKER_03 1:26:44

Michelangelo has ADHD and Rafael has uh anger issues.

SPEAKER_02 1:26:48

Yeah, he has anger issues. Donnie and Leo are like somewhat normal. I feel like Donnie's just OCD, and Leo is just kind of like, you know, he's just there.

SPEAKER_03 1:26:58

Depending on which version of Leo we're talking about. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:27:01

Because like like they are vastly different.

SPEAKER_03 1:27:04

Yeah, because like there is the self-confidence version where he like struggles with leadership. And then there's when he like can grow into himself, then he's vastly different. Yep, yep. Uh, and then Donnie's just like the nerd.

unknown 1:27:17

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:27:18

Big old nerd. Shut up, nerd. Shut up nerd. Shut up, nerd. You killed the rat.

SPEAKER_01 1:27:27

Yeah, good luck letting that one go.

SPEAKER_02 1:27:30

Never living that one down. I mean, you can you could do one for Shredder, you know what I mean? You can do it, you can do one for the Foot Clan. April. Yeah, April O'Neal. Oh, wouldn't that be dope? See, and again, and again, I feel like that could lean into like a 4D ride because you could be okay, everybody load into the news van. We're gonna take a ride in, you know, with April O'Neal, and you're gonna get an inside scoop of what it's like to be a news reporter, and just that day just goes totally awry. Like you get chased by the Foot and shredder, bro. I'm telling you, somebody's gonna listen to this episode, they're gonna be like, that's a great fucking idea. Let's start making it right now.

SPEAKER_03 1:28:07

Yeah, let's start making it right now. You could have a part of the park, a part of the park, you go into the sewer system.

SPEAKER_02 1:28:16

I'm telling you, you know, like I'm telling you. It'd be it'd be it'd be it'd be fun. Like that would be a fun theme. That'd be a fun theme park. It honestly would be. So I think we all got some pretty good ideas out here. I wish Templeton was with us to share his ideas. What'd you say? Churros?

SPEAKER_01 1:28:32

Who owns the turtles?

SPEAKER_03 1:28:36

Nobody owns them, they're their own free creatures.

SPEAKER_02 1:28:39

Damn, oh damn. If you count the rat. Damn.

SPEAKER_03 1:28:46

Fuck. I tried to dig out.

SPEAKER_02 1:28:49

No, you did. You did. I'm gonna find out right now. Hang on. Um Paramount. Paramount global. They are owned by Paramount. So I think Paramount could be that. This has to exist. Yeah, I would think so, but I don't know. I don't know. Google if there's a turtles theme park.

SPEAKER_03 1:29:14

There might be a turtles ride, themed ride.

SPEAKER_02 1:29:20

I would I I would hope that nope, there is not a standalone theme park dedicated solely to teenage mutant ninja turtles. But you can find massive dedicated shell-shocked areas and record and record-breaking attractions inside Nickelodeon Universe theme parks. So I guess if you go there.

SPEAKER_01 1:29:38

It's giving like a world, like a ninja turtle world.

SPEAKER_02 1:29:41

Yeah, because the it says the ultimate TMNT experience is located at the American Dream Mall in East Rutherford, New Jersey, just outside New York City. This massive New Jersey. Right. This massive indoor park features TMNT's Shell Razor, which is the steepest roller coaster in the world, featuring a terrifying 121.5 degree drop. Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_01 1:30:06

I'm so happy I asked this question.

SPEAKER_02 1:30:08

The Shredder, which is the world's tallest and longest free spinning coaster. Shell Shock, a high flying ride where you control free spinning. Uh I don't want to go back to that. I have no idea. And then Shell Shock, which is a high flying ride where you control your own glider, and then character meet and greets, daily opportunities to meet Leonardo, Rafael, Raphael, Donatello, Michelangelo in person. We should go. I would like to. Can we go? Can we carry? Can we record an episode there and write it in? From where? How far is that from Boston? Uh we'll find out.

SPEAKER_03 1:30:43

Sounds like it's closer to New York City, though. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:30:46

I don't know anything about that. That means nothing to me.

SPEAKER_02 1:30:52

So it's a three and a half hour trip from Boston.

SPEAKER_01 1:30:58

I'm gonna be up in Boston like in two weeks for a weekend.

SPEAKER_02 1:31:03

I mean, I mean, if if you want to take if you want to take a three and a half hour trip over to Rutherford and New Jersey and find that Teenage Mun Ninja Turtle themed indoor park.

SPEAKER_01 1:31:16

So I could fly in a day early. You could. And then suddenly here I am in another theme.

SPEAKER_02 1:31:22

Yeah, no shit. You're just hitting all the theme parks everywhere. I'll be I'd be kind of jealous. Look it off the box. Listen, listen, she's not getting on the rides, though. Oh shot. She didn't get on the ride. Yeah, but let's go back to the free spin one because what a wasted wasted trip that would be. She's like, yeah, I went there. I stood outside. How about that? How about that? That's fucking crazy. I don't know. That's something I'm gonna have to Google, see what see what a free spinning coaster is. I don't know what that I don't know what that means. Does that sound awful? It's it sounds intriguing, honestly. Like, do we just sound liberating? Yeah, are we just hanging there and it just goes wee liberating and a roller coaster? Don't go hand in hand. No, no, they don't go hand in hand.

SPEAKER_02 1:34:44

I

Coney Island Letdown Stories

SPEAKER_02 1:34:45

am stuck. I I I feel like I f okay, so to be fair, I feel like the first time we went to Coney Island, I felt like it was gonna be bigger than what it was. I honestly did. I thought when we first went to Coney Island, I thought it was gonna be bigger than what it was, and the only attraction that was there was the big ass pool, which they now have shut down, which kind of sucks.

SPEAKER_03 1:35:06

Which is like the whole point of going the whole point of going to Coney Island.

SPEAKER_02 1:35:09

Does it even exist anymore?

SPEAKER_01 1:35:10

County fair.

SPEAKER_02 1:35:11

Yeah, I I think I think Coney Island doesn't exist anymore. What'd you say, Miss Mr.

SPEAKER_01 1:35:15

It's not real? Coney Island is a county fair.

SPEAKER_02 1:35:19

I mean, yeah, like a permanent county fair, yes.

SPEAKER_01 1:35:22

It's a permanent county fair.

SPEAKER_02 1:35:24

Because it's like the rides they had there, they felt like you know, the pop-up fair right.

SPEAKER_03 1:35:30

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:35:32

Little hills. Yeah, and then like I said, the only the only real attraction there was the fucking extra extra large, extra large Olympic-sized swimming pool that they had. That the last time we went, it was it was me, Yeti, our buddy Pat, and I believe Mrs. Yeti also went. Um, they had the big old like uh obstacle course, and we ran that. It was a lot of fun. It was a good time. We were actually we were dog tired, but I remember like when we first jumped in that pool, we probably all all three of us probably are all almost drowned because we jumped into we jumped into the deep end and we s we swam from the deep end over, and it was funny because it's like we'd swim, swim, swim, swim, swim, and then we'd like stop. And nope, feet still aren't touching. Swim, swim, swim, swim, swim. We're like, feet still aren't touching. We're like, we're getting fucking tired. Yeah. So we made it, obviously.

SPEAKER_03 1:36:32

But they had a diving board too, didn't they?

SPEAKER_02 1:36:35

They they did, but when we went, those diving boards were no longer there. So I don't know if they were knew that they were gonna close, but honestly, yeah, I I would say the very first time I went to Coney Island because people talked about Coney Island all the time when we were younger, like it was some fucking great thing. And I was just like, I don't know. I you know, I've never been, you know, and and and our mom, obviously, back in the day, she always had those company picnics there or whatever it was. Oh shit, yeah. So she would she would take us because you know, summer break, we're we're we're in school, we're off for the summer. She's like, You guys come with us. Okay, so we went, and it's like we got there, and we're like, what the fuck is this? I think we would have had more fun staying at home, honestly.

SPEAKER_01 1:37:27

Damn, corny, lame. Yeah, that's actually the worst amusement park I've ever been to.

SPEAKER_02 1:37:32

Yeah, I think we called it corny island. We did with like after like the first or second time we went, we're like, that's corny island, because there's really nothing there except for the pool. That's it.

SPEAKER_01 1:37:44

You just walk around. That's all you ever did. That's all you did.

SPEAKER_02 1:37:48

Yeah. Yeah, it was the lame it was the lamest fucking park ever. But I mean, I I get that it was a staple because of Sunlight Pool, but now it's gone. Now they I think they just utilize it for like uh concerts and shit. Yeah, yeah, parking. Uh what is it, riverbend that's down there? Yeah. Well, aren't they redoing that?

SPEAKER_01 1:38:07

I think they're doing something down there. I don't remember what they said it was.

SPEAKER_02 1:38:12

They are. Can you imagine they're just rebuilding Coney Island?

unknown 1:38:16

Huh?

SPEAKER_02 1:38:20

They said, how can we waste our money this time? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:38:25

So we're gonna call it Boney Island.

SPEAKER_02 1:38:27

Bony Island. And we're gonna have a lot of bones. There's gonna be skeletons everywhere.

SPEAKER_00 1:38:37

What?

SPEAKER_02 1:38:41

Oh, can you imagine a skeleton theme park? Actually. What how about you, Morty? Would you like to ride the bone train? Why are you doing this bit? We're gonna die. Anywho. I have a really good idea. Anatomy park. Anatomy park. Nice. So they're building a whole amusement park inside me. Oh, they're building a piece of shit, Ethan. They're building a huge monument to compromise.

SPEAKER_03 1:39:07

Would the entrance be the mouth?

SPEAKER_02 1:39:09

Yes. And the exit would be the anus. Or hear me out. The entrance being the anus any.

SPEAKER_03 1:39:17

Well, that's a different type of anatomy park if you ask me.

SPEAKER_02 1:39:22

Oh, all I all I know is I want to ride Pirates of the Pancreas.

SPEAKER_06 1:39:28

Amen, brother.

SPEAKER_02 1:39:29

And we asked ourselves, what does a pancreas do? Anyway, moving on. Who who wants some fun and games?

SPEAKER_05 1:39:41

Always. Always.

SPEAKER_02 1:39:43

Always.

Sam Jackson Versus Fishburne

SPEAKER_02 1:39:44

So I'm going to ask this question right her. And I think y'all might like it. I want to know who, in your opinion, has the stronger filmography. I'm gonna give you two actors, and I'm gonna give you a quick list of their movies, and amongst the movies that I list to you, tell me who had the stronger uh filmography. Okay? We have Samuel Jackson versus Lawrence Fishburne. Alright. So here's the here are the films that are that that we're gonna list. So for Sam Jackson, we got Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Django Unchained, A Time to Kill, The Hateful Late, Jurassic Park, Die Hard with a Vengeance, and Unbreakable. For Lawrence Fishburne, we have The Matrix, Boys in the Hood, Deep Cover, What's Love Got to Do With It, King of New York, Event Horizon, School of Days, Searching for Bobby Fisher. That's your listing.

SPEAKER_01 1:40:48

It's Sammy Boy. It's Sammy Boy.

SPEAKER_02 1:40:50

Really?

SPEAKER_01 1:40:52

It's Sammy Boy.

SPEAKER_02 1:40:58

Out of that list, who had the stronger filmography out of that list?

SPEAKER_01 1:41:02

The movies wouldn't stand without Samuel. And outside of like a few for Lawrence Freshburn, they could stand on their own.

SPEAKER_03 1:41:13

Like okay, that's fair. That's fair. I do think that Sam's list of movies is more stacked for sure. With or with with with or without Sam Jackson. But I do think he makes most of those movies.

SPEAKER_02 1:41:28

Yes. I do, I I will, I will agree, especially on uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh oh my god the hateful eight The Matrix is pretty good, the Matrix is strong, the Matrix is strong, but that's like the strongest I don't know, Event Horizon. He did pretty well in Event Horizon.

SPEAKER_03 1:41:47

I don't know if I've seen that though. That's my fault. Really? No, but him as Ike Turner.

SPEAKER_02 1:41:52

Yeah, what's love got to do with it?

SPEAKER_01 1:41:54

Yeah, uh that's one of my favorite movies. Yeah, no disrespect to Lauren Fishman. You know his daughter is a porn star?

SPEAKER_02 1:42:02

I did not know that. Um what's her name? Just for you're gonna have to Google it.

SPEAKER_03 1:42:09

No, no, no, I don't remember that. Asking for a friend.

unknown 1:42:18

Research.

SPEAKER_01 1:42:18

You're gonna have to get that on your private tab.

SPEAKER_02 1:42:21

I'm writing a research paper. That's all I'm doing.

SPEAKER_01 1:42:25

Private tab incognito mode.

SPEAKER_02 1:42:27

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely. I will say though, I will say though, I do have to agree with this list of films, I'd have to lean towards Sam Jackson. Do not with uh as Miss Meeseek said, no disrespect to Lawrence Fishburne because uh because they they listed there, they said no Marvel, no Star Wars, no John Wick. So I was like, mmm, that's tough because Yeah, that's tough. You know what I mean? That just kind of just automatically eliminates Lawrence Fishburne, like yeah, undoubtedly. So I was like, that kind of sucks. But The Matrix, strong Boys in the Hood, What's Love Got to Do with It? Uh uh Event Horizon was actually one of my favorite movies. Uh um Grizz, if you haven't seen it, it's with him and Sam Neal, and it's actually it's a great horror movie, honestly.

SPEAKER_03 1:43:13

It's a I need I need to watch it. It's a great horror movie.

SPEAKER_02 1:43:16

Yeah, you I think I think you'll I think you would enjoy that. And Searching for Bobby Fisher was one of my favorite movies. I think I watched that quite a bit. If I if I recall whenever it came on, like on on uh whatever the fuck it was, Cinemax or whatever the fuck, HBO. One of those movie channels.

SPEAKER_01 1:43:34

I would I always watch it.

SPEAKER_02 1:43:36

What's that?

SPEAKER_01 1:43:37

It's called Max now, isn't it?

SPEAKER_02 1:43:40

Uh HBO Max.

SPEAKER_01 1:43:42

Oh no, so it's Cinemax?

SPEAKER_02 1:43:46

I have no idea. Uh I think I think they're still I think they're still around. Um, I think you can find them. I think they're still on like uh standard cable, but like as far as like streaming max. Yes, skinemax after dark. Yeah. Ah yeah, yeah. Oh yeah, I remember that. Very influential on my life. Yeah, I remember that. But yeah, sit Cinemax because I yeah, I thought it was HBO Max. They then they went to just Max, and I think a lot of people bitched about it, and that's why they went back to HBO Max, because they were like, Why the fuck would you do that? I don't understand.

SPEAKER_01 1:44:22

Yeah, I thought they were Cinemax. I forgot they existed.

SPEAKER_03 1:44:25

Yeah, they were trying to they were trying to be cool and be like, we're Max now, and everyone's like, No, the fuck you're not. No, you're not.

SPEAKER_01 1:44:31

Yeah, go back.

SPEAKER_03 1:44:32

Yeah, go good.

SPEAKER_01 1:44:33

I love how we bully companies. We got the Mexican.

SPEAKER_03 1:44:35

I wish we could bully Twitter to like the snacking axe.

SPEAKER_01 1:44:39

The snack wrap, amen.

SPEAKER_02 1:44:41

I don't think you're gonna be able to bully Elon Musk, though. I don't think you're gonna be able to do it.

SPEAKER_03 1:44:47

It's hard to bully a bullier, you know.

SPEAKER_02 1:44:49

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Especially especially a bullier with that much money. He's he's you're not you're not gonna make it happen. You're not gonna change his mind. You're not gonna do it. Nah. Ain't gonna happen. So, anyway, it ain't gonna happen. Yeah, it ain't it ain't gonna happen. Sorry, it ain't gonna happen. So there you go. Let us know what you think who had the stronger uh filmography list, Sam Jackson or Lawrence Fishburne. Again, no disrespect to Lawrence Fishburne, but out of that list, Sam Jackson take the cake, man. Every movie on that list was I was like, damn, every movie was good. Every movie was fucking good. But also to Gris's uh uh to Grizz's point as well, every movie on that list was stacked with actors. Yes, that's fucking it's a stacked actor.

SPEAKER_03 1:45:33

It's like it's it's it's it it's just not fair.

SPEAKER_02 1:45:36

Yeah, honestly, it wasn't. It wasn't fair. I mean Jurassic Park.

SPEAKER_01 1:45:40

Every quote from every movie is the Samuel Jackson quote that comes up first for me. English motherfucker, do you speak?

SPEAKER_00 1:45:48

Like every single one.

SPEAKER_02 1:45:50

Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, even even Jurassic Park, hold on to your butts. I say that all the time. Uh yeah, I don't think anybody ever catches the Jurassic Park reference, though, because they're like, what are you talking about? Why are you saying hold on to your butts? I'm like, you know what? Don't worry about it. Never mind. This is why you probably disappointed your parents growing up. I'm sorry, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. It was tough for the joke. Alright,

Orca Fashion And Dolphin Chaos

SPEAKER_02 1:46:22

so before we wrap this up, does anybody want a fun fact?

SPEAKER_03 1:46:27

Yes.

SPEAKER_02 1:46:35

No. And what a great fun fact we have here because we talked about SeaWorld, that orcas wear other animals as hats.

SPEAKER_03 1:46:48

Really? Dude, I fuck with orcas. I want to get an orca tattoo. Okay, so let's dive into this.

SPEAKER_02 1:46:57

No pun intended. There's no way that this was what you had. Uh yes, swear to god. Swear to god. That's why I was like, wow, how did we do this? So just like our theme parks, this whole episode had a theme. It's almost as if it was it was the stars exactly, the stars were lying. So, yes, dolphins and orcas are now using other animals as toys and hats. So, who needs a ball when you have a puffer fish to hand? Don't they get half a puffer fish? They do, dolphins do. So, dolphins have been observed. Dolphins are basically us in the water. Yeah, basically. But dolphins have been observed on various occasions holding puffer fish in their mouths. The terrified fish soon inflate with seawater until they look like a spiky tennis ball, which the dolphins then pass around and toss into the air. This could be a game, part of the dolphin's repertoire of naturally playful behaviors, but marine mammal experts aren't sure what's going on. Maybe younger dolphins are practicing their echolocation skills, finding pufferfish hiding on the seabed, and then playing with them like a cat taunts a mouse. However, it's clear the dolphins know not to eat the pufferfish, which are full of a deadly chemical called tetradotoxin. If the marine mammals were planning to eat them, they would eventually tire of playing and tear into their prey. Instead, they hold the pufferfish quite gently in their mouths without crushing them. Another possible explanation is that dolphins are deliberately getting high on the noxious chemicals that waft out of the pufferfish. Their game may really be an excuse to experience a mild narcotic effect. Dolphins also have a habit of flinging octopuses. This has a practical benefit of killing the octopus before the dolphin tries to eat it, thus avoiding the danger of being choked by hundreds of suckers clinging to the inside of the dolphin's throat. Whoa. Some animal-on-animal games, however, remain baffling. Orcas are known for their intelligence and playful social behaviors. For a while in the 1980s, an orca pod off Washington State, Grizz, on the north on the northwest coast of America, started to carry dead salmon around on their heads. The behavior began with one female and spread to others in the pod. The trend that had disappeared. The trend that had disappeared by 1988, but re-emerged in 2024 when dead fish hats once again became the height of orca fashion. Perhaps the orcas are carrying snacks for later, or maybe it's a game with rules we don't yet understand. So there you go. So interesting. Dolphins throw octopuses.

SPEAKER_01 1:49:47

Dolphins are dicks. Dolphins are dicks, and people need to spread the word about it. I have a dolphin tattoo and I might get a covered up, or I might put dolphins or dick and put an arrow next to it.

SPEAKER_02 1:49:58

Dolphins are dicks, and then change. It into a similarly phallic-shaped object.

SPEAKER_01 1:50:05

Have one coming off of it.

SPEAKER_02 1:50:12

So there you go. Dolphins are dicks. Yeah, and apparently orcas wear dead salmonist hats. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 1:50:19

I'm convinced it's something. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 1:50:22

They're they're smart. Yeah, they're all they're all smart. They're smart. They're smart motherfuckers.

SPEAKER_01 1:50:27

Where are you gonna put it? How big is this gonna be? I need to know more.

SPEAKER_03 1:50:33

I'm running out of space. Maybe okay, hear me out.

SPEAKER_01 1:50:36

I have a really good idea, actually. I could do a count of three, let's say it. Oh.

SPEAKER_02 1:50:43

SPEAKER_03 1:50:54

I don't know how big you think I am to get an orchid tattoo.

SPEAKER_02 1:51:00
