I Something's happening in the world, and I have to

(00:45):
address it. I have to just start the show. I
gotta go right off the top. And I hate to
get serious, but what is going on with new hotel
room design? Because if you've stayed in a newer hotel
room lately, have you noticed it to get cute with
certain aspects. Like for example, I stayed in one over
the weekend and I was by myself, so no big deal,

(01:08):
and I'm going about my business. And after the second
day of staying in this hotel, I realized the bathroom
doesn't have a door.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Oh what there's no door on the bathroom.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
Not even like a sliding one or a curtain.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
No, no, like, it's just it's just like a I
don't even know. It's just an opening. Like, so you
walk in the room. You got the closet. Oh, it's
very modern. I'm not gonna say that it's a it's
a Marriotte property. I'm not gonna say which one it is,
but it's they got like this, you know, you walk
in open closet over here, very industrial, you know, gray

(01:45):
and whatever. They got the bed, they got a little
couch desk, you know, typical hotel room. And so I'm
just going about my and then I get in the
shower this morning and I'm like or yesterday morning, and
I'm going about my business and I realized.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Like, there's no door. Now, this is not there.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Would you first of all, what would you do if
you were in a relationship because there's no door on
the toilet part either, because it's you know, the toilet
and the sink and the shower, it's all this one room.
And then it's there's no door, there's no curtain, there's
no nothing. So the shower doesn't bother me nearly as
much as the toilet does. Like what am I supposed
to do if I'm there with someone else? I don't
care how comfortable you are in your relationship, Like if

(02:21):
something's about to go down, I can't even close the
door and pretend it's not happening.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
Is there a bar in your shower?

Speaker 4 (02:29):
One of those you know, handicapped rooms maybe and you
just don't know, oh.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
You know, like an excess them. Yeah, no I don't.
I don't think so. No, there's no I know what
you mean.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
Like the little silver bar.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Is there a seat in your shower?

Speaker 4 (02:52):
Do you have a white jackie?

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Were padded? I don't know why.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
For me?

Speaker 2 (03:04):
Somebody came in last night and gave me something in
a little white cup. I don't know what that was.
But there's no door. There weren't any sheets either, it
was just it was just a plastic mattress.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
But I mean I don't know, is that weird?

Speaker 2 (03:23):
They sedated me last night, but there's no door on
the bathroom.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
I'm a palled.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
But then I was in what I was in another
hotel that I didn't pay for. It was for work
a few weeks ago. And then the shower looked right
out into the bathroom and you could, I guess you
could like do something to make it so that you didn't,
but like the standard thing was you do it would
just shower and then there was the bed right there.
I think you could frost the glass or something.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
This is a little bit fancy, but like the shot,
that's I can deal with, Like, okay, that maybe that's
a little sexy, Like you see me if I'm there
was someone you've seen me naked before, Like that's not
a big deal.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
But it's the.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Toilet exposure that is extremely problematic for me. Like do
you say you guys are all in relationships. Do you say, like, hey,
you gotta go for a walk or something because I'm
about to use the doorless bathroom, Like what do you do?

Speaker 3 (04:13):
I would go to the lobby like too, if it
was like about to go down, I would have to
go to the lobby. But I'm wondering do they have
like single person hotel rooms, like if they know you're
staying by yourself, or they like, here's like what room.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
I thought the same thing I thought. I thought that.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
I thought like did maybe did the woman say like
this lonely man can't stay in our single room. Finally
we have a use for this room with no door
in the bathroom or that I was. I was forwed
by this, Like I don't know. I couldn't believe it.
I don't know how they get away with.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
This, and that's very odd.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
These hotels are doing everything but putting a microwave back
in the room. And it's really making me upset because
I went to a hotel recently in the lighting, like
I don't want to play around with the It's like,
give me one switch that turns this off. Oh yeah,
I'm standing here pressing all these buttons trying to figure
out what light it operates. I don't need all that.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
Yeah yeah, no, I mean I noticed that last night too.
There was like the reading light and then and then
there was like this, and then if you push one button,
everything goes off. If you push this and then everything
comes away. But what if I just want one, I
don't want everything, and you're walking around yes, yeah, yeah, no,
I was I don't know, guys. I just I was
curious how those of you who travel with other people,

(05:30):
which is most people, how you would deal with something
like this, because I don't know. I realized that even
if there were a door, a lot of people will
go to the gym, you know, for a little workout,
and it's like, you don't work out?

Speaker 1 (05:41):
I know, but I'm going to today. You know, I
don't the lobby.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
I know the lobby is an option, but I just thought,
how would you get away with this? I mean, even
if you had to pee, it's like zero privacy. It's
right there.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
That's in't beare I don't know I could do this.
Does a Shelley leave the door open to be here?
I'm sorry, Shelley, but yeah, some people in their relationships
are very comfortable and they'll leave the door open.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
I don't like.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
No, I'll go number one with the door open. But
what if it's time for number two?

Speaker 3 (06:11):
You gotta you gotta no, right, especially a lot of
has been had, you know, Oh yeah, like.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
I was in another hotel room that Oh yeah, no, no,
maybe just two rooms if you had some lactose like yeah.
But like the it was, it was very modern. It
was in it was when I was on vacation. It
was a I don't know, they were going for modern
over the top, Like it looked like a space ship
in this room. I don't know what was going on.
But the bed, I mean I could I could lay

(06:43):
in the bed and touch the bathroom door, and then
the bathroom had its own little thing, and then the
shower was like like a store like a store front door,
you know, like with completely glass and you even had
a little handle on it. Like I was looking for
the sign that said like come back at eight or whatever,
you know, on the door. And I send a picture
of it to someone and this person was like, dude,

(07:04):
that is a one person only hotel room. Like I mean,
if I'm laying in bed and you're in the bathroom,
like if the door were open, I could touch you.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
It's very weird. What are we doing?

Speaker 2 (07:15):
And I know we're going for efficiency, I know, But
the thing is this hotel room I stayed over the
weekend was not a small hotel room.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
It's a very large hotel room.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
It was pretty big, so it's not even like we
were going for space savings here, but even if we were,
a door would be nice. Like And then I started
looking at I really analyzed this. I'm looking at like
the hinges like, well does someone break the door? And
they I don't know, there's no place for a door.
A choice was made right, and I got it. I mean,
it's like I want to go downstairs at the front desk.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
I want.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
I wanted to be like, hey, does every room not
have a door in the bag or is it just
mine or Mike am I like the loser room, like
Jason said there, it's like, ah, there's nobody in there
with him, so who cares. We don't need a door
for that room, you know what I mean, Christopher Frederick's coming,
I won't be with anybody. It'll be fine the loser room,
you know.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
I don't know. I was, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
I thought maybe you guys would have the same sort
of visceral reaction to this that I did, but I
was very upset about him.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (08:10):
And also with like all the showers flooding now in
these new Fingle showers now with no door it's just
flooding the whole room now, is what's gonna happen?

Speaker 1 (08:17):
Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
I don't know, but that's that's that's what I had
to deal with. And thank god I in the loser
room alone. No, thank you, thank you. I'm gonna talk
to my therapist about it this week. It'll be fine,
we'll get to the bottom of it.
