Hello there, and welcome to the Theme Park Podcast. Dickerman. Here,

Hi, Scott Hi, Dickerman.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
And Scott Harris.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
What's your favorite scary movie?
Speaker 4 (00:33):
Scream? Just because that line's from Scream, but I would
say night Mary elms Street. Uh, part three Dream Warriors?
Is that three?
Speaker 2 (00:41):
That's three? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (00:42):
Okay, that's a good one. That's a good one. It's
quality film.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
I think you're gonna say the remake, the remake Nightmare.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
I mean you could do Freddy versus Jason.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
That was interesting.
Speaker 5 (00:54):
Yeah, as far as uh, those horror movies go, that's
actually pretty it's prett okay.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Yeah, I mean there's Michael Bay Jason one.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Well, there's the Michael Bay Jason one. There's the Michael
Bay Freddy.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Oh he did a Freddy two. You're right, Yeah, it
just wasn't Freddy without Robert England. That was wrong. It
was incorrect.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
It was Kelly Leak from The Bad News Bears.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Yeah, you can't do Freddy without Robert England. He's just
that's one of those ones where you can't replace the guy.
He is Freddy Krueger. He is Freddy Krueger. Absolutely, you
can replace Jason. Jason's been a bunch of different guys.
Same with Michael Myers, but Freddy Krueger. It's got to
be England.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Yeah, but they can get it wrong with Michael Myers. Yes,
I want to say in four the guy is like
my size.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Little Michael. Yeah, little Mike, Little Mike.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Wait, was it a baby Michael Myers movie.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
No, it wasn't. That's the thing, all right.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Should we delve into theme parks because this is supposedly
a theme parks show.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Here, Yes, because there's news dedicated to you, Yes, bill
me in, kill me in. There is news dedicated to
Remember a few years ago, you don't, but you were
judged and bullied at Epcot.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Yes, I do. This was a number of years ago,
I mean a lot of years ago. This happened. I
was bullied by a member of the Norway Pavilion m hm,
because I wanted to buy an olaf Rice Christo retreat
at the requests of my beautiful young daughter. At the time,
she was very young. She is old now, so this
(02:36):
was many years ago. And he insisted, he insisted that
I get school bread. I mean just you know, brow
beat me until I bought some. Well how hard he
was right, a Scandinavian man. That yeah, it was just
like four size Jimmy. You know, I'm susceptible to people,
you know, beating me down. I'm by people can break
(02:58):
me down. I'll listen to a Timeshare presentation until Jimmy
pulls me away. So he wasn't even a big guy.
He was right about the school bread though, because it
was amazing. He was right.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
So first of all, so wait, let me get this straight.
Your daughter bullied you into getting an ol off, and
then another person bullied you into not getting what your
daughter bullied you into getting No.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
No, because I got her the ole off anyhow, and
the school no.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
No, you are going to vend movie at one right now?
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Why, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
You said you're successful to bullying my daughter At the time,
she didn't have to bully me whatever she wanted.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
I just gave her how it works.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Well, there's a new pavilion at Norway a kiosk for
grabbing go's school bread.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
No, he's fresh, though, is it? Will it be as fresh?
That's my question?
Speaker 5 (03:56):
Where do you think they're getting it from the same
place they were getting the school bread that you were
get I think it was frescally delicious. Yeah, this song
a special kitchen in the back of that little kiosk.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
The school bread used to be very inexpensive. I don't
know that it's still inexpensive, but at the time, like
for a treated Epcot, it was a great deal. Ouse
it was big and it was not pricing five nine.
That's still reasonable, one hundred percent. I feel like it
was like four something maybe before, which was crazy at
that cup. Five forty nine. Yep, get yourself a school bread.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Just go right now. Is the park's still open? They
are probably open.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
As of our as of when we are recording right now. Yes,
it's still open. Okay, and here's Saturday morning on the radio.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
It'll be open soon. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
I feel like you haven't had school bread since the
Bush administration, so I think seventy five cent increase is
pretty good.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
You're right, Yeah, And I feel like that is a
fair price.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Still.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Also, I feel like this should be a reason for
you to get an annual pass just to eat school bread.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Do you want me to get fat? Your laptop has
a thing on it says bread makes you fat. I
was like, you do have that, Ricker.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
I will not be happy happy until you look like
Baron Harkonen.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
You guys know I'm weak and I like to yo yo.
I don't want to yo.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Dude, my rackus.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
The spice must flow.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Yeah, where aren't you supposed to be cosplaying as a
as a Hearken in for Dune three?
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Maybe? Maybe not? I don't know. I don't think so.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Mm hmmm. Kind of takes the fun out of it.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
By the way, I thought about last week on the show,
we were talking about wish list that we would like
the new Disney Uh Josh to morrow?
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Uh huh, Yeah, I got another one that just what
you're talking about. It brought it in my head. Okay,
I'll let you go first, Okay, thank you. Uh freaking
rainbow bridge hello the thing? Remember? Oh yes, how do
we not have just put a bridge over the thing
right over there at Magic Kingdom? It would alleviate so
very many problems just put a bridge. Yep, get hand
(06:08):
all over there, put the bridge up.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Boom, yep.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
No, bide for us, thank you, I'm good.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Okay, okay, okay, I'll take a regular concrete Patris okay.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
No no, no, no no. Me and Dickerman had a
backup idea m cannon.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
To shoot you across.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Yeah, Mario Kart style.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Mm hm. They actually do that in a Donkey Kong.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yes, they do. I have been on that ride my
heart madness. The other thing, well, the mine is bring
back Disney Quest.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Oh yeah, but make the games good.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Or just have it as is and I can go
play unlimited video games.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:54):
The thing about Disney Quest is you needed to keep
up with it, and they they did a big money
dump in the beginning. They renovated it once and then
they kind of just walked away from me. It was
like you needed to they needed to consistently evolve. Instead
they just evolved the building.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Yeah, yeah, the games the way the video game industry evolved.
They just couldn't keep it up. Like they had that
big ridiculous what was it a Laddin game and it
looks so cool and then you put it on You're like,
this is stupid.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Well, there was the Aladdin game, there were two Mighty
Duck there was the Mighty Ducks game. There was the
Buzz light Year Drive around and then shoot things from
your gokart basically.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Shooting you were shooting? Uh? Or were they soccer balls
from the pumper car?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
It was awesome.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
That was awesome.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I don't know why we didn't try to buy one
of those.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
I mean, can you get them? It's so hard to
get Disney stuff.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Well, it's too late now that thing's been gone, that things,
that building has been like seven things since then.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Yeah. Yeah, special as Disney West.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
Those carts might be in some kind of warehouse at
some point or like someplace on property.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Bring it back. You're right, Scott. What else are they doing?
What's what's there now?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (08:08):
No, Splitsville is is further down.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Right, Yeah, Splitsville took over for where Virgin Mega Store.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
Virgin Mega Store was Halloween. No, it's going to be
it's not going to be Disney Quest, but it is
going to be. Ah, it's a third party and it
is going to be like kind of like an interactive.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
But but it isn't the Void, which was the thing
that they had for a while.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Yeah, it's not Void. Yeah, well I'm interested see what
they put there, but it's not going to be Disney.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Quest, which I did the I did the Void once
and it was fun and and then it just died.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Yeah, just petered out. And they're trying to like trying
to keep up with technology as it's coming along right now.
It's really hard, I think, especially with VR and with AI.
It's like if you try and put something out now,
it's going to be obsolete in two months.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Well no, that's that's not completely true though, because a
place like David Busters it is fine. It's like I said,
you just have to like constantly be updating your games.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Rent don't buy.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Level ninety nine, an interactive physically gaming venue for adults,
is replacing former NBA Experience at Disney Springs.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Okay, scheduled to open sometime this year.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Okay, I'm down. I'll check it out.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Hey, you can't let Jimmy go to the preview for
when that opens though?
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Why Why? Because I was like one of five people
that got to go to the NBA Experience.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Yes, yeah, hey, why didn't this thing? A work at
university will put it in Disney it'll be great. Oh
it's even worse here, son.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
The NBA thing at Universal was just a restaurant and
it had like maybe I think one basketball court. This
was like they had a backboard and a rim that
I could adjust the height so that I could dunk
on it. When you scan your bracelet and you did
the dunk, it would take pictures, and I have pictures
that make me look like I'm Jordan dunking the ball
(10:07):
when really most of the time I would get it
to the rim and it would like bounce off and
could never actually get it in.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
Turned out nobody cared about that. Huh, it's just more
an interesting.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
No, it wasn't that nobody cared about it.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
It was just it. It was barely open. And then
COVID broke out.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Oh COVID that, thank jeez.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
And it didn't last a year. And then I think
the price point was more. It was more expensive, and
I think people were willing to pay for it. And
you know, one thing leads to another. You just cut
their losses. Let's take the the h the tax right off.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
But the bar outside is like very successful the city
works pub.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Now that bar is like the bet like doing better
than anything else that's ever been in that space. And
part of that is because it's a great junction point
for that side of the park where you're about to
leave and you can go parking lot of the garage.
But then there's also like the movie theaters right there,
you got circus Ola in the other direction, and then
straight ahead.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
His House of Blues.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
All those things led out into one area and that's
right where that city bar is.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
So no kidding, it's good.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
It does well, Yeah, that makes sense. Hey. So while
we were on the subject of the biofrost, the the
the Rabo Bridge, the Rainbow bridge that would come out
for four, can we talk about this planet universal? Which
I'm all four. I don't know if they can pull
it off, but I love this idea. I love the
(11:35):
way these guys are thinking an underground tunnel. M hm, parks.
Are we talking like a tube? A tube system?
Speaker 3 (11:43):
I mean, I would assume when a company called the
Boring Company is involved, I'm thinking tunnel.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
I mean they did this. Have they done it in Vegas?
I know they talked about it, they actually do it.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
They have done it, and I've seen the videos of
what it is mm hmm. And it's like one lane
of a road underground.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Okay, I mean if it's getting you at park to
park though.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
And I believe, and I could be wrong on this,
you can only do it if you have an electric car.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Tesla.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Yeah, No, I thought you'd know. I thought they had
like a they had like a train. You're ride in
a train? No, No, if I think just gonna have
a train, well, the.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Vegas one is only like Tesla cars.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
No, I think they're upgrading this to be like a
traveling like a monorail or a train underground. That's what
I'm a visioning here.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Yes, that's what I believe it would be.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
Ye'd like.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Orlando's first subway.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
But like you, there are some logistical problems with that because.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
The water table, right, yeah, yeah, it's a he's been
an issue.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
There's a reason why it was a basement here.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Could they build it up like Disney built up so
they could have the Utila doors. Could they build up
the ground in this particular area so they could you know,
kind of go underground, but really there's still above ground
because they just built it up.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
I don't know how that would work, like honestly, because
everything is so much is already at a level. Yeah,
you would have had to have started with this first
and then build everything up like that's that's how they
started with like the Magic Kingdom and the Utilidors.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Yeah. I just I wouldn't think they'd even bring it
up or talk about it unless there was at least
an option to make it happen somehow, some way. Maybe.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
I mean, there's got to be a way to do it.
I mean, how do they build bridges like under oceans
and stuff.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
I'm always impressed when like they have like the subway
that like goes under the water. I'm like, wait, how
what how does this? How does this work?
Speaker 3 (13:42):
You mean like the Channel tunnel.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
I've been down, I've been through the chunnel.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Yeah, but it's awesome.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Well I did the one between Vegas and DC, and
I think that goes underwater at some point. What I'm sorry, Virginia,
it's the other v You guys got enough. I say
a letter and it's a first letter of another place.
It just means the other place.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Okay, did you just imagine a thing that has never existed?
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Hold on, if I say Saint Pete, it very well
could be Saint Augustine. If I say Vegas, it very
well could be Virginia.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
I think, uh, Dickerman just letting an Illuminati secret slip out.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I think that's what just happened. You're gonna come get you.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
To That'd be awesome if we had this situation from
Vegas to DC.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
I mean, I would love a real public transport infrastructure
in this country. Jimmy would agree. We've both been to Japan,
where it works perfectly.
Speaker 5 (14:37):
Yeah, yeah, they perfectly, but they definitely have the closest.
Speaker 4 (14:43):
It's just so big here. The problem is it's just
so big here they could never get it dub it.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
No, that's not true. It it works in It works
in continental Europe.
Speaker 4 (14:53):
I think Europe is pretty small, very still it still works.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
You could easily get from from one country to three
countries over on a train.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
I'm pretty sure. Yeah, and like countries in Texas.
Speaker 5 (15:06):
Yeah, and you could do that in an hour, whereas
it'll take you an hour, just like it takes you
three hours to get through Florida or like you know
through Uh, we're a big place. We're bigger than North Carolina,
South Carolina. All those seven years for Texas, they could
drive through Texas. You literally do seven years off your life.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Yeah, somebody figure out who how do you get bullet
trains here that go two hundred miles an hour, which
is faster than you will go in your car.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
This is true, This is true. I'm all for bullet trains.
Don't get me wrong, bring me a bullet train. But
this idea of an underground tunnel between Universal and Islands
of Adventure and the New Park Epic Universe intriguing. It's intriguing. Yeah,
it's very intriguing. I mean, we can't get a freaking
bridge over a Disney, but oh, Universal's over here going,
Hey guys, we're gonna do an underground tunnel. And what
(15:56):
if it's steamed like Super Mario and it's the Green
Tunnels and you go through the green tops.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
No, I told you what it needs to be. It's
themed to Harry Potter, it's the night Bus.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Is it the night Bus or is it the Flume?
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Well that already exists inside of that's the Ministry magic,
the flu network. Like that's what you used to like
get into. That's what what you use to get from
the queue into the like further into the queue.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I'm off for that night Bus. Night Bus is good by.
Maybe we need a vehicle anyhow, I.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Got an ice, I got a hot take.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
It's actually cool as the Harry Potter fan ice coold
hot take.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
I think the vehicle should be ice piercer to take
you from one park.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
To the other.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
You mean snow piercer.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
It happened, snow piercer. Snow pier that's not gonna happen.
I never watched that because I didn't see the movie.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
That's what you didn't see the movie.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Yeah, I tried it. I got bored.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
What is wrong with you? It's one of director parks
like best movies.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
No, No, I didn't like it. I should probably give
it a try again. I'd probably just watched it on
the wrong.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Yeah, it's an amazing film.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
I just kind of started slow.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Yeah, i'll give you when we're done. When when we're done,
i'll give you a list of his other movies you
need to check out.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
It's the other ones I gotta watch now.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Parasite, Mickey seventeen.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
Oh, I've seen Mickey seventeen.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
It was okay, oak Jaw, Memories of Murder the Host.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Yeah, it's like a lot of work.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
It's not really. Do you want some other theme park stuff?
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Yeah, I guess we should. If we're not taking the
tunnel anytime soon, let's get some theme park. But if
you want to make me an annual passolder, you put
a tunnel between those parks and you make that part
of the deal.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
You might just get me and they give you school bread.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
I mean that's fine too, I'd be great.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
We're getting a new music venue to CityWalk.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Okay, all right, I don't even consider the venues in CityWalk.
I don't even think about them anymore. I guess people
still go there, right, Well, like.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Clubs, Well, no, there's there's one, and uh, you know
somebody that works at one of the music venues there.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
The hard rock Yes, yes, it's also it's a restaurant
and it's a big yeah that that to me is
like almost like a small arena. So I didn't really
consider that. Like I'm thinking music venue, I'm thinking like
a Pad O'Brien's where you got some guy out there
with a guitar on the stage.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Which which I mean that counts.
Speaker 4 (18:25):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean hard rocks, you know several
levels above that. But Luke Combs is bringing Countryman countryman.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
He's bringing a new venue to town.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
What are we getting? What's it going to be?
Speaker 3 (18:40):
It's called Luke Combs is bringing Category ten entertainment venue
to CityWalk.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
Okay, so it's like a like like justin Timberlake's got
a bar in Nashville. Do you guys know that? Yes,
it's apparently very fancy. Is this what this situation is
going to be? Kind of like?
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Yes, because he also has an establishing in Nashville.
Speaker 4 (19:02):
Man, everybody's got something in Nashville. Everybody's got a spot
in Nashville.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Jimmy has a music venue in Nashville, do you James, No,
I think he's talking about Colbert. No, I'm talking about No,
I'm talking about you.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Mm hmm. I don't want to own a bar ever.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
It is the it's the worst business in the world.
The people that the people that can own a bar
and like survive, Good on them. They're there. They're a
different species. They they they gotta they're cut from a
different cloth. It's a hard business.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Jickerman, I need you to stop what you're doing and
turn your head to the right. Does this dude have
gold tips in his hair? Scott, Yes, I know this
is great for radio.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
But yes, gold tips in my hand yep, just the
way the lights. It might be silver, it might be
gray hair you're seeing. It might be great tips.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Well.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
But the thing is Universal has said nothing is going
away for this building.
Speaker 4 (20:02):
So were they gonna They're just gonna put it on
top of something.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
So the belief is, and this is educated guests by
people on social media, is that the area in between
the water in where like Voodoo Donuts and the NBC
Sports Restaurant is where there's like the walkway path down
to the boats right in there.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Take it away, take away the walkway path, put it
right there, yep.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
And this maybe would be closer to like a little
bit closer to the water.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Let's go Getvoodoo Donuts after the show.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Let's go get Voodoo Donuts. Let's get some Cinnabons on
the on the further way out.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
Yeah, let's do it, and.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
We'll go to the hot dog place that you guys
still don't think is real.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
There's a hot dog place there.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Yes. Remember I went to Universal last year just to
get a cinnabon and then I feel like I needed
to eat actual food first.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
And you ate a hot dog? Yeah, probably did not
sit well and side of you.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
No, no, no, that's a bad combination that I did
to myself that day, not a.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
God no, no, no no, that's a perfectly fine combination.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
No, because I got a hot dog that I washed
down with a chocolate coffee drink from Cinnabon, and then
when I got home, that's when I ate the cinnabun.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
See, the difference between you and me would be I
would I would eat the hot dog, I get the
chocolate coffee drink and eat the cinnabon at the same time.
That would not make it to my home, no knowing you.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
You would take the cinnabon dunk it in the coffee drink,
and that's like like it's an oreo.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
The only problem with that is, I'll tell you right now,
as an expert in this field, you will lose some
of your cinnabon icing and I don't want to lose
even an ounce of that. Yeah, but not even you're.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Not really losing it though, it's just getting mixed into
the coffee.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
Yeah, exactly. And with the bun, you gotta keep it
with the bun, that's where it belongs. I've been drinking
cinnabon off all week. It is delicious.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
That's all right. Last last story and this is a rumor,
but Villain's Land, we've talked about this, the forthcoming area,
one of the fourthcoming years to Magic Kingdom. Yes, there's
a rumor going out there that with the new change
at CEO mm hmm, that he has gone to Imagineers
and said, think bigger than what you have already had planned.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
So I don't like your plans. I want something bigger
and better. This is too mundane.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Well, as as the two of us have seen in
the Imagineering docs, you know, we've seen what they can
they what the pie in the sky ideas that they
can come up with.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
Are when challenged? Absolutely yes, when challenged, Jimmy, I still
suggest you watched the documentary literally made for you. The
opening of the thing says a love letter to Jimmy
Dean anything what it says?
Speaker 3 (22:56):
They just dropped another love letter to Jimmy as well?
Speaker 4 (23:01):
What's now? What's what's even talking about Imagineering? The Imagineering
movie on Disney that you refuse to.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
Watch multiple seasons?
Speaker 4 (23:10):
Yeah, it's so good, you guys are correct, Yeah, they just.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
It's called I think it's called we are imagineering.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Mm hm, No, it's called fantasy Land because it never happened.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
No, it was on YouTube and then they poured it over. Oh,
we call it imagineering.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
I still gotta watch that one Disney movie that was
at the Florida Film Festival. Where can I watch that thing?
Speaker 3 (23:38):
Remember that Stolen Kingdom?
Speaker 4 (23:40):
Yes, that one I want to watch that.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
You can go see it multiple days in times at
the Ensian Theater in Maitland.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Great, all right, now I gotta go to Enzi and again.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Yeah. Did you ever watch a Florida project?
Speaker 4 (23:56):
I have not.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
It's one of the few A twenty four movies I
haven't seen.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
I might have seen that.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
It's the Willem Dafoe one, directed by Sean Breaker Academy
Award winner Sean Baker, who directed Honora.

Speaker 4 (00:27):
And Scott Harris.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
What's your favorite scary movie?
Speaker 4 (00:33):
Scream? Just because that line's from Scream, but I would
say night Mary elms Street. Uh, part three Dream Warriors?
Is that three?
Speaker 2 (00:41):
That's three? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (00:42):
Okay, that's a good one. That's a good one. It's
quality film.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
I think you're gonna say the remake, the remake Nightmare.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
I mean you could do Freddy versus Jason.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
That was interesting.
Speaker 5 (00:54):
Yeah, as far as uh, those horror movies go, that's
actually pretty it's prett okay.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Yeah, I mean there's Michael Bay Jason one.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Well, there's the Michael Bay Jason one. There's the Michael
Bay Freddy.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Oh he did a Freddy two. You're right, Yeah, it
just wasn't Freddy without Robert England. That was wrong. It
was incorrect.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
It was Kelly Leak from The Bad News Bears.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Yeah, you can't do Freddy without Robert England. He's just
that's one of those ones where you can't replace the guy.
He is Freddy Krueger. He is Freddy Krueger. Absolutely, you
can replace Jason. Jason's been a bunch of different guys.
Same with Michael Myers, but Freddy Krueger. It's got to
be England.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Yeah, but they can get it wrong with Michael Myers. Yes,
I want to say in four the guy is like
my size.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Little Michael. Yeah, little Mike, Little Mike.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Wait, was it a baby Michael Myers movie.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
No, it wasn't. That's the thing, all right.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Should we delve into theme parks because this is supposedly
a theme parks show.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Here, Yes, because there's news dedicated to you, Yes, bill
me in, kill me in. There is news dedicated to
Remember a few years ago, you don't, but you were
judged and bullied at Epcot.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Yes, I do. This was a number of years ago,
I mean a lot of years ago. This happened. I
was bullied by a member of the Norway Pavilion m hm,
because I wanted to buy an olaf Rice Christo retreat
at the requests of my beautiful young daughter. At the time,
she was very young. She is old now, so this
(02:36):
was many years ago. And he insisted, he insisted that
I get school bread. I mean just you know, brow
beat me until I bought some. Well how hard he
was right, a Scandinavian man. That yeah, it was just
like four size Jimmy. You know, I'm susceptible to people,
you know, beating me down. I'm by people can break
(02:58):
me down. I'll listen to a Timeshare presentation until Jimmy
pulls me away. So he wasn't even a big guy.
He was right about the school bread though, because it
was amazing. He was right.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
So first of all, so wait, let me get this straight.
Your daughter bullied you into getting an ol off, and
then another person bullied you into not getting what your
daughter bullied you into getting No.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
No, because I got her the ole off anyhow, and
the school no.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
No, you are going to vend movie at one right now?
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Why, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
You said you're successful to bullying my daughter At the time,
she didn't have to bully me whatever she wanted.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
I just gave her how it works.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Well, there's a new pavilion at Norway a kiosk for
grabbing go's school bread.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
No, he's fresh, though, is it? Will it be as fresh?
That's my question?
Speaker 5 (03:56):
Where do you think they're getting it from the same
place they were getting the school bread that you were
get I think it was frescally delicious. Yeah, this song
a special kitchen in the back of that little kiosk.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
The school bread used to be very inexpensive. I don't
know that it's still inexpensive, but at the time, like
for a treated Epcot, it was a great deal. Ouse
it was big and it was not pricing five nine.
That's still reasonable, one hundred percent. I feel like it
was like four something maybe before, which was crazy at
that cup. Five forty nine. Yep, get yourself a school bread.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Just go right now. Is the park's still open? They
are probably open.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
As of our as of when we are recording right now. Yes,
it's still open. Okay, and here's Saturday morning on the radio.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
It'll be open soon. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
I feel like you haven't had school bread since the
Bush administration, so I think seventy five cent increase is
pretty good.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
You're right, Yeah, And I feel like that is a
fair price.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Still.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Also, I feel like this should be a reason for
you to get an annual pass just to eat school bread.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Do you want me to get fat? Your laptop has
a thing on it says bread makes you fat. I
was like, you do have that, Ricker.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
I will not be happy happy until you look like
Baron Harkonen.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
You guys know I'm weak and I like to yo yo.
I don't want to yo.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Dude, my rackus.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
The spice must flow.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Yeah, where aren't you supposed to be cosplaying as a
as a Hearken in for Dune three?
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Maybe? Maybe not? I don't know. I don't think so.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Mm hmmm. Kind of takes the fun out of it.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
By the way, I thought about last week on the show,
we were talking about wish list that we would like
the new Disney Uh Josh to morrow?
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Uh huh, Yeah, I got another one that just what
you're talking about. It brought it in my head. Okay,
I'll let you go first, Okay, thank you. Uh freaking
rainbow bridge hello the thing? Remember? Oh yes, how do
we not have just put a bridge over the thing
right over there at Magic Kingdom? It would alleviate so
very many problems just put a bridge. Yep, get hand
(06:08):
all over there, put the bridge up.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Boom, yep.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
No, bide for us, thank you, I'm good.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Okay, okay, okay, I'll take a regular concrete Patris okay.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
No no, no, no no. Me and Dickerman had a
backup idea m cannon.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
To shoot you across.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Yeah, Mario Kart style.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Mm hm. They actually do that in a Donkey Kong.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yes, they do. I have been on that ride my
heart madness. The other thing, well, the mine is bring
back Disney Quest.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Oh yeah, but make the games good.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Or just have it as is and I can go
play unlimited video games.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:54):
The thing about Disney Quest is you needed to keep
up with it, and they they did a big money
dump in the beginning. They renovated it once and then
they kind of just walked away from me. It was
like you needed to they needed to consistently evolve. Instead
they just evolved the building.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Yeah, yeah, the games the way the video game industry evolved.
They just couldn't keep it up. Like they had that
big ridiculous what was it a Laddin game and it
looks so cool and then you put it on You're like,
this is stupid.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Well, there was the Aladdin game, there were two Mighty
Duck there was the Mighty Ducks game. There was the
Buzz light Year Drive around and then shoot things from
your gokart basically.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Shooting you were shooting? Uh? Or were they soccer balls
from the pumper car?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
It was awesome.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
That was awesome.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I don't know why we didn't try to buy one
of those.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
I mean, can you get them? It's so hard to
get Disney stuff.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Well, it's too late now that thing's been gone, that things,
that building has been like seven things since then.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Yeah. Yeah, special as Disney West.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
Those carts might be in some kind of warehouse at
some point or like someplace on property.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Bring it back. You're right, Scott. What else are they doing?
What's what's there now?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (08:08):
No, Splitsville is is further down.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Right, Yeah, Splitsville took over for where Virgin Mega Store.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
Virgin Mega Store was Halloween. No, it's going to be
it's not going to be Disney Quest, but it is
going to be. Ah, it's a third party and it
is going to be like kind of like an interactive.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
But but it isn't the Void, which was the thing
that they had for a while.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Yeah, it's not Void. Yeah, well I'm interested see what
they put there, but it's not going to be Disney.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Quest, which I did the I did the Void once
and it was fun and and then it just died.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Yeah, just petered out. And they're trying to like trying
to keep up with technology as it's coming along right now.
It's really hard, I think, especially with VR and with AI.
It's like if you try and put something out now,
it's going to be obsolete in two months.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Well no, that's that's not completely true though, because a
place like David Busters it is fine. It's like I said,
you just have to like constantly be updating your games.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Rent don't buy.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Level ninety nine, an interactive physically gaming venue for adults,
is replacing former NBA Experience at Disney Springs.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Okay, scheduled to open sometime this year.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Okay, I'm down. I'll check it out.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Hey, you can't let Jimmy go to the preview for
when that opens though?
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Why Why? Because I was like one of five people
that got to go to the NBA Experience.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Yes, yeah, hey, why didn't this thing? A work at
university will put it in Disney it'll be great. Oh
it's even worse here, son.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
The NBA thing at Universal was just a restaurant and
it had like maybe I think one basketball court. This
was like they had a backboard and a rim that
I could adjust the height so that I could dunk
on it. When you scan your bracelet and you did
the dunk, it would take pictures, and I have pictures
that make me look like I'm Jordan dunking the ball
(10:07):
when really most of the time I would get it
to the rim and it would like bounce off and
could never actually get it in.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
Turned out nobody cared about that. Huh, it's just more
an interesting.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
No, it wasn't that nobody cared about it.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
It was just it. It was barely open. And then
COVID broke out.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Oh COVID that, thank jeez.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
And it didn't last a year. And then I think
the price point was more. It was more expensive, and
I think people were willing to pay for it. And
you know, one thing leads to another. You just cut
their losses. Let's take the the h the tax right off.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
But the bar outside is like very successful the city
works pub.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Now that bar is like the bet like doing better
than anything else that's ever been in that space. And
part of that is because it's a great junction point
for that side of the park where you're about to
leave and you can go parking lot of the garage.
But then there's also like the movie theaters right there,
you got circus Ola in the other direction, and then
straight ahead.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
His House of Blues.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
All those things led out into one area and that's
right where that city bar is.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
So no kidding, it's good.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
It does well, Yeah, that makes sense. Hey. So while
we were on the subject of the biofrost, the the
the Rabo Bridge, the Rainbow bridge that would come out
for four, can we talk about this planet universal? Which
I'm all four. I don't know if they can pull
it off, but I love this idea. I love the
(11:35):
way these guys are thinking an underground tunnel. M hm, parks.
Are we talking like a tube? A tube system?
Speaker 3 (11:43):
I mean, I would assume when a company called the
Boring Company is involved, I'm thinking tunnel.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
I mean they did this. Have they done it in Vegas?
I know they talked about it, they actually do it.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
They have done it, and I've seen the videos of
what it is mm hmm. And it's like one lane
of a road underground.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Okay, I mean if it's getting you at park to
park though.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
And I believe, and I could be wrong on this,
you can only do it if you have an electric car.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Tesla.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Yeah, No, I thought you'd know. I thought they had
like a they had like a train. You're ride in
a train? No, No, if I think just gonna have
a train, well, the.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Vegas one is only like Tesla cars.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
No, I think they're upgrading this to be like a
traveling like a monorail or a train underground. That's what
I'm a visioning here.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Yes, that's what I believe it would be.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
Ye'd like.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Orlando's first subway.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
But like you, there are some logistical problems with that because.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
The water table, right, yeah, yeah, it's a he's been
an issue.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
There's a reason why it was a basement here.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Could they build it up like Disney built up so
they could have the Utila doors. Could they build up
the ground in this particular area so they could you know,
kind of go underground, but really there's still above ground
because they just built it up.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
I don't know how that would work, like honestly, because
everything is so much is already at a level. Yeah,
you would have had to have started with this first
and then build everything up like that's that's how they
started with like the Magic Kingdom and the Utilidors.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Yeah. I just I wouldn't think they'd even bring it
up or talk about it unless there was at least
an option to make it happen somehow, some way. Maybe.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
I mean, there's got to be a way to do it.
I mean, how do they build bridges like under oceans
and stuff.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
I'm always impressed when like they have like the subway
that like goes under the water. I'm like, wait, how
what how does this? How does this work?
Speaker 3 (13:42):
You mean like the Channel tunnel.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
I've been down, I've been through the chunnel.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Yeah, but it's awesome.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Well I did the one between Vegas and DC, and
I think that goes underwater at some point. What I'm sorry, Virginia,
it's the other v You guys got enough. I say
a letter and it's a first letter of another place.
It just means the other place.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Okay, did you just imagine a thing that has never existed?
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Hold on, if I say Saint Pete, it very well
could be Saint Augustine. If I say Vegas, it very
well could be Virginia.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
I think, uh, Dickerman just letting an Illuminati secret slip out.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
I think that's what just happened. You're gonna come get you.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
To That'd be awesome if we had this situation from
Vegas to DC.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
I mean, I would love a real public transport infrastructure
in this country. Jimmy would agree. We've both been to Japan,
where it works perfectly.
Speaker 5 (14:37):
Yeah, yeah, they perfectly, but they definitely have the closest.
Speaker 4 (14:43):
It's just so big here. The problem is it's just
so big here they could never get it dub it.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
No, that's not true. It it works in It works
in continental Europe.
Speaker 4 (14:53):
I think Europe is pretty small, very still it still works.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
You could easily get from from one country to three
countries over on a train.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
I'm pretty sure. Yeah, and like countries in Texas.
Speaker 5 (15:06):
Yeah, and you could do that in an hour, whereas
it'll take you an hour, just like it takes you
three hours to get through Florida or like you know
through Uh, we're a big place. We're bigger than North Carolina,
South Carolina. All those seven years for Texas, they could
drive through Texas. You literally do seven years off your life.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Yeah, somebody figure out who how do you get bullet
trains here that go two hundred miles an hour, which
is faster than you will go in your car.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
This is true, This is true. I'm all for bullet trains.
Don't get me wrong, bring me a bullet train. But
this idea of an underground tunnel between Universal and Islands
of Adventure and the New Park Epic Universe intriguing. It's intriguing. Yeah,
it's very intriguing. I mean, we can't get a freaking
bridge over a Disney, but oh, Universal's over here going,
Hey guys, we're gonna do an underground tunnel. And what
(15:56):
if it's steamed like Super Mario and it's the Green
Tunnels and you go through the green tops.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
No, I told you what it needs to be. It's
themed to Harry Potter, it's the night Bus.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Is it the night Bus or is it the Flume?
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Well that already exists inside of that's the Ministry magic,
the flu network. Like that's what you used to like
get into. That's what what you use to get from
the queue into the like further into the queue.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I'm off for that night Bus. Night Bus is good by.
Maybe we need a vehicle anyhow, I.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Got an ice, I got a hot take.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
It's actually cool as the Harry Potter fan ice coold
hot take.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
I think the vehicle should be ice piercer to take
you from one park.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
To the other.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
You mean snow piercer.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
It happened, snow piercer. Snow pier that's not gonna happen.
I never watched that because I didn't see the movie.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
That's what you didn't see the movie.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Yeah, I tried it. I got bored.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
What is wrong with you? It's one of director parks
like best movies.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
No, No, I didn't like it. I should probably give
it a try again. I'd probably just watched it on
the wrong.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Yeah, it's an amazing film.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
I just kind of started slow.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Yeah, i'll give you when we're done. When when we're done,
i'll give you a list of his other movies you
need to check out.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
It's the other ones I gotta watch now.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Parasite, Mickey seventeen.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
Oh, I've seen Mickey seventeen.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
It was okay, oak Jaw, Memories of Murder the Host.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Yeah, it's like a lot of work.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
It's not really. Do you want some other theme park stuff?
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Yeah, I guess we should. If we're not taking the
tunnel anytime soon, let's get some theme park. But if
you want to make me an annual passolder, you put
a tunnel between those parks and you make that part
of the deal.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
You might just get me and they give you school bread.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
I mean that's fine too, I'd be great.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
We're getting a new music venue to CityWalk.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Okay, all right, I don't even consider the venues in CityWalk.
I don't even think about them anymore. I guess people
still go there, right, Well, like.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Clubs, Well, no, there's there's one, and uh, you know
somebody that works at one of the music venues there.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
The hard rock Yes, yes, it's also it's a restaurant
and it's a big yeah that that to me is
like almost like a small arena. So I didn't really
consider that. Like I'm thinking music venue, I'm thinking like
a Pad O'Brien's where you got some guy out there
with a guitar on the stage.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Which which I mean that counts.
Speaker 4 (18:25):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean hard rocks, you know several
levels above that. But Luke Combs is bringing Countryman countryman.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
He's bringing a new venue to town.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
What are we getting? What's it going to be?
Speaker 3 (18:40):
It's called Luke Combs is bringing Category ten entertainment venue
to CityWalk.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
Okay, so it's like a like like justin Timberlake's got
a bar in Nashville. Do you guys know that? Yes,
it's apparently very fancy. Is this what this situation is
going to be? Kind of like?
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Yes, because he also has an establishing in Nashville.
Speaker 4 (19:02):
Man, everybody's got something in Nashville. Everybody's got a spot
in Nashville.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Jimmy has a music venue in Nashville, do you James, No,
I think he's talking about Colbert. No, I'm talking about No,
I'm talking about you.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Mm hmm. I don't want to own a bar ever.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
It is the it's the worst business in the world.
The people that the people that can own a bar
and like survive, Good on them. They're there. They're a
different species. They they they gotta they're cut from a
different cloth. It's a hard business.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Jickerman, I need you to stop what you're doing and
turn your head to the right. Does this dude have
gold tips in his hair? Scott, Yes, I know this
is great for radio.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
But yes, gold tips in my hand yep, just the
way the lights. It might be silver, it might be
gray hair you're seeing. It might be great tips.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Well.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
But the thing is Universal has said nothing is going
away for this building.
Speaker 4 (20:02):
So were they gonna They're just gonna put it on
top of something.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
So the belief is, and this is educated guests by
people on social media, is that the area in between
the water in where like Voodoo Donuts and the NBC
Sports Restaurant is where there's like the walkway path down
to the boats right in there.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Take it away, take away the walkway path, put it
right there, yep.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
And this maybe would be closer to like a little
bit closer to the water.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Let's go Getvoodoo Donuts after the show.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Let's go get Voodoo Donuts. Let's get some Cinnabons on
the on the further way out.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
Yeah, let's do it, and.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
We'll go to the hot dog place that you guys
still don't think is real.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
There's a hot dog place there.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Yes. Remember I went to Universal last year just to
get a cinnabon and then I feel like I needed
to eat actual food first.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
And you ate a hot dog? Yeah, probably did not
sit well and side of you.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
No, no, no, that's a bad combination that I did
to myself that day, not a.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
God no, no, no no, that's a perfectly fine combination.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
No, because I got a hot dog that I washed
down with a chocolate coffee drink from Cinnabon, and then
when I got home, that's when I ate the cinnabun.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
See, the difference between you and me would be I
would I would eat the hot dog, I get the
chocolate coffee drink and eat the cinnabon at the same time.
That would not make it to my home, no knowing you.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
You would take the cinnabon dunk it in the coffee drink,
and that's like like it's an oreo.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
The only problem with that is, I'll tell you right now,
as an expert in this field, you will lose some
of your cinnabon icing and I don't want to lose
even an ounce of that. Yeah, but not even you're.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Not really losing it though, it's just getting mixed into
the coffee.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
Yeah, exactly. And with the bun, you gotta keep it
with the bun, that's where it belongs. I've been drinking
cinnabon off all week. It is delicious.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
That's all right. Last last story and this is a rumor,
but Villain's Land, we've talked about this, the forthcoming area,
one of the fourthcoming years to Magic Kingdom. Yes, there's
a rumor going out there that with the new change
at CEO mm hmm, that he has gone to Imagineers
and said, think bigger than what you have already had planned.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
So I don't like your plans. I want something bigger
and better. This is too mundane.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Well, as as the two of us have seen in
the Imagineering docs, you know, we've seen what they can
they what the pie in the sky ideas that they
can come up with.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
Are when challenged? Absolutely yes, when challenged, Jimmy, I still
suggest you watched the documentary literally made for you. The
opening of the thing says a love letter to Jimmy
Dean anything what it says?
Speaker 3 (22:56):
They just dropped another love letter to Jimmy as well?
Speaker 4 (23:01):
What's now? What's what's even talking about Imagineering? The Imagineering
movie on Disney that you refuse to.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
Watch multiple seasons?
Speaker 4 (23:10):
Yeah, it's so good, you guys are correct, Yeah, they just.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
It's called I think it's called we are imagineering.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Mm hm, No, it's called fantasy Land because it never happened.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
No, it was on YouTube and then they poured it over. Oh,
we call it imagineering.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
I still gotta watch that one Disney movie that was
at the Florida Film Festival. Where can I watch that thing?
Speaker 3 (23:38):
Remember that Stolen Kingdom?
Speaker 4 (23:40):
Yes, that one I want to watch that.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
You can go see it multiple days in times at
the Ensian Theater in Maitland.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Great, all right, now I gotta go to Enzi and again.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Yeah. Did you ever watch a Florida project?
Speaker 4 (23:56):
I have not.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
It's one of the few A twenty four movies I
haven't seen.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
I might have seen that.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
