Was very excited about it.
They were like, take it.

'I was like, okay, amazing.
And then 'I went to my purse the other day and'I guess it was like one of those clickable pens.
And the click had clicked and ithad drawn inside the purse all over.
And because it was light, itwas like very, very visible.

Trey Gerrald (03:21):
Well, speaking of getting things out, ChelseyBD, are you interested in going head to head?

Chelsey Donn (03:28):
'I.
Would love to go head to head.
'I have so much to get outtoday and uh, let's do it.

Trey Gerrald (03:33):
Let's do it.

VOICEOVER (03:34):
Assess, That, Kvetch.

Trey Gerrald (03:35):
Queens today is another versus episode.
And today ChelseyBD and 'I aregonna cover both A' one star and A' five star review on the same topic.
Today's topic, king Spa and Sauna in Illinois.

Chelsey Donn (03:50):
For this verse episode that is unofficially sponsored by Grether Pastilles, the biggest box of Grether Pastilles you've ever seen in your entire life.
Trade selected the one starand 'I selected the five star.

(04:12):
So to determine who goes first,we gotta flip that brothers.

Trey Gerrald (04:17):
What?
You've lost it, 'I.
Think you've officially lost your fucking mind.
Wait.
Why is that box so big?
It looks like, wait, it looks likethose like jewelry boxes that little girls have where the ballerina pops up,

Chelsey Donn (04:29):
this is so 'I Love Brothers 'I.
Use them whenever we recordto help me lubricate my voice.
'I, use them before auditions.
'I use them when 'I have to sing.
'I, use them all the time.
And 'I was at A' Pharmacy, like one of thosefancy pharmacies recently, and they had this and it was like $75, but it's humongous

Trey Gerrald (04:48):
ChelseyBD.

Chelsey Donn (04:49):
so many brothers in it.
And it, and then inside of it, it's so bigthat it has like A', baby gress inside of it.

Trey Gerrald (04:57):
Oh,

Chelsey Donn (04:59):
Should 'I flip the GREs.

Trey Gerrald (05:00):
'I mean if you want.
How are we gonna know?

Chelsey Donn (05:03):
There's A' heads and there's A' toes.
So GREs on one side,

Trey Gerrald (05:07):
did you say?
Toes?
You said heads and toes.

Chelsey Donn (05:10):
'I did.

Trey Gerrald (05:12):
Are you drunk right now?

Chelsey Donn (05:13):
No, I'm not.
Okay.
Heads and tails.
Heads and tails.
So there's A' on the heads, there'sA' GP for Grether, pastilles, and then on the tails it's flat.
So I'll know.
And it's your turn.
So I'm gonna flip that GREs,

Trey Gerrald (05:30):
You flip it.

Chelsey Donn (05:31):
or you tell me it heads or tails.
'I know which is which.

Trey Gerrald (05:33):
Okay.

It's it's heads.
It's heads.

Heads 'I mean You gotta read the GREs as it lies.
Do you see that?
Re

Trey Gerrald (05:53):
That is so weird.
Don't eat that.
Don't suck.
That one.
It fell on the
ground.

Chelsey Donn (05:58):
to.
I'm gonna throw it out.
We lost A' G Brothers in theprocess, but it was worth it.

Trey Gerrald (06:03):
Okay, so that means ChelseyBD is gonna share the five star in today's main episode, breaking our Streak of only One Stars on the main.

Chelsey Donn (06:11):
That's

Trey Gerrald (06:12):
So at the time of this recording, king Spa and Sauna has 1,216 reviews on Yelp with an average score of four out of five.
So that's pretty good.

Chelsey Donn (06:24):
That is pretty good.

Trey Gerrald (06:24):
So according to the, from the business section on Yelp, king Spa and Sauna's, purpose is to de-stress detoxify and enhance the body's self-healing abilities by combining with earth's natural elements like salt, crystals, mud, and gold.

(06:45):
They have A' total of eight whirlpools in themen and women's spa, and 10 different dry saunas.
In the common lounge.
So wait, do you think that meansthere's four in each gendered side?

Chelsey Donn (06:58):
That's what 'I would think, right?

Trey Gerrald (07:00):
That's what 'I think too.
Yeah.
We also provide body scrubs, massages,acupressure, and A', full service restaurant to make your state even more convenient and worthwhile.
So basically they just explainedwhat happens in every spa in sauna.
So Chicago King Spa and Sauna opened in early Mayof 2010, and there was also another location in Dallas, Texas, which 'I thought was interesting.

(07:26):
So with all of that background info, 'I,let's go ahead and jump right on in and consider the reviews for Kings Spa and Sauna.

VOICEOVER (07:36):
Review, That, Review.

Chelsey Donn (07:41):
All right.
This review was written by Garrett y.
It's A' Yelp Review.
Garrett y is an elite Yelp as 'I like to consult.
And this is Garrett W's five starreview of King Spa and Sauna.
'I am writing this review as 'I Lounge in one ofthese asterisk, ugly asterisk Rococo vinyl chairs.

(08:11):
They're quite comfortable.
This is my second time here and 'I amstarting to grow A' liking to this place.
'I.
If you've never been to Kings Spa before, checkout the introductory video that you can watch before committing yourself for the next few hours.
They do not give tours, sothis is the next best thing.

(08:33):
Short of just going in.
If you decide to take this adventure, headto the front desk and they'll check you in.
You're given A' bracelet that has A'key to your locker, as well as A' FOB on which you can scan for in-house purchases.
When you check out, they scan yourfob and then let you know your bill.

(08:55):
After entering, you must take off yourshoes and place them into the shoe locker.
There's A' separate locker for your clothes.
They don't want your street clothes trekkingaround the locker room, which is very clean.
Okay.
Next you grab one of their uniformsthat you must wear in the co-ed areas.
At this point, 'I decide to hitthe wet areas, which consists of Whirlpool tubs and A' steam room.

(09:21):
Now here's the kicker.
Unlike at the gym or other spaswhere one can wear swimsuits or robes around, one must be entirely naked.
In this area?
Yep.
All one has is his or her birthday suit.

(09:42):
Men and women are separated at this point,so no worries about seeing the other gender.
One can also get the missed,have King's Spa scrub.
It is quite an experience and is done inA', semi secluded corner 'I, the wet area.

(10:06):
They take you to A' vinyl or plastic coveredtable, and the therapist who is in his underwear basically takes A' Brillo pad and scrubs.
You clean from head to toe, front and back.
It's basically A' bath on A' table.
After the scrub, you're given A' massage.

(10:29):
The treatment is definitely worth it.
After having my fill of the wet area, 'I puton my uniform and head into the co-ed area.
There's lounging areas and all the saunasas well as A' dining area and massage rooms.
On my first trip, 'I tried each of therooms to see which ones 'I liked the best.

(10:52):
All of them purport to have somesort of special or healing property.
Eeg, salt, amethyst.
Gold rooms, but 'I findthem to be all very similar.
There is an ice room to cool off in.
I've had two types of massagetreatments the two times I've been here.

(11:16):
The first time 'I got the footreflexology, which was okay.
Today 'I got the acupressure deeptissue massage, which was okay as well.
It was not deep tissue.
Even though 'I asked the guy for morepressure, it ended up being more of A' relaxation massage than anything.
Next time 'I would skip the massagesafter having checked them out.

(11:39):
They're also rather pricey.dot A'hundred and 30 for 90 minutes plus dip.
Now the food is A'.
Different story.
It's pretty good.
I've had the sun.
I've had the sun do boo soup.
Chache and Curry Kat Sudan, 'I woulddefinitely recommend the sun do boo.

(12:03):
Perfect for A' cold day like today andafter A' few hours in the heat rooms.
Again, dishes are pricey, butyou're A' captive audience and you can't bring outside food and drink.
There's also A' lounge area upstairs withTVs, napping areas, and A' movie theater.

(12:23):
There's so much to do here and manyfamilies come here and spend the day.
The clientele is diverse.
There seems to also be A'.
Lot of students that come as A' group,girl groups, couples, and even bros.
This is definitely the place to come for A'Chill afternoon, especially when it's cold out.

(12:49):
And then quickly, I'm just gonna share my screen.
They did of course add A' photoas most, uh, elite reviewers do.
I'm just gonna share my entire screen.
So this is one of the dishes,this is the curry tongue cut.
Katsu.
No, katsu is like, like A' chicken cutlet.
Like A' fried chicken cutlet with this curry sauceand scallions and some sliver almonds on top.

(13:14):
It actually looks delicious, I'm not gonna lie.
It looks really

Trey Gerrald (13:16):
It does look good, but that is like A'.
Lot of curry.
It's like, looks like A' soup.

Chelsey Donn (13:21):
Yeah.
It's kind of swimming and curry, butat least the chicken's, not all S 'I.
Think it looks good

Trey Gerrald (13:26):
'I.
Don't think it's swimming.
'I think it's drowning.

Chelsey Donn (13:28):
Oh, you think it's adding?
Okay.
All right.
Well anyway, let's talk aboutGarrett y first impressions, Trey.

Trey Gerrald (13:34):
Well, all right, so it's interesting because Garrett is really sort of leaning in, in my opinion, A' little too hard with the minute details, but 'I also recognize Garrett shares that they don't allow tours.
So 'I think Garrett is taking it on themselvesto like say, and then 'I walked over here and did this, and then 'I did this.

(13:58):
It's like A' little.
Much in my opinion, but my, my pressing questionis, what is Garrett's initial for their last name?

Chelsey Donn (14:06):
Why?

Trey Gerrald (14:07):
So it's not M or W for Miriam Webster, because Garrett goes on to define what A' FOB does

Chelsey Donn (14:17):
Yeah.

Trey Gerrald (14:18):
detail.
Also, Garrett goes on to explain anexplicit detail what naked means.
Then Garrett goes into such great detail aboutthe materials that are used inside of the spa

Chelsey Donn (14:33):
Yes.

Trey Gerrald (14:33):
first sentence about the ugly chair, then explaining the scrub where you're on A', plastic vinyl.

Chelsey Donn (14:40):
Right.
You're right.

Trey Gerrald (14:41):
but, and all of that.
Miriam Westering Garrett doesn't explainwhat the actual uniform looks like.
And as someone who's never been here,what do you think the uniform is?
'I thought it would just be A' robe.

Chelsey Donn (14:51):
So the uniform at A', lot of these hips of spas is usually shorts and A' and A' top.

Trey Gerrald (14:56):
Oh, interesting.
'I.
Wonder why it's not A' robe

Chelsey Donn (14:59):
Yeah,

Trey Gerrald (15:00):
yourself.

Chelsey Donn (15:00):
maybe.
But that is true.
It's like why omit that detail whenwe're going to such lengths here?

Trey Gerrald (15:07):
Why do you think ugly is an asterisk

Chelsey Donn (15:10):
'I was gonna ask you about that as well.
'I think it's super, like one of thefirst things that drew me actually to this review, 'I saw A' five star and then 'I.
The really, because of theasterisks ugly, really pops out.
And it's not often that you get A'five star review that you're like ugly.
But like when you look at Garrett'sreview, I'm gonna show you and Patreon and anyone watching right now on YouTube.

(15:33):
Like when you look at this review,it's the first thing you see.

Trey Gerrald (15:36):
It, it really does pop.
Why

Chelsey Donn (15:38):
'I feel like the asterisks as 'I can never say this word,

Trey Gerrald (15:42):
hard to say it

Chelsey Donn (15:43):
asterisks.

Trey Gerrald (15:44):
Yeah.
Donn don't know.
Astri 'I.

Chelsey Donn (15:46):
Astro could be replacing like quotes like ugly, like maybe ugly subjective.

Trey Gerrald (15:54):
What does Rococo mean?

Chelsey Donn (15:55):
Rococo is like A' type of, um, which one?
'I think it's like A'.
What do you call it?

Trey Gerrald (16:02):
Rotan.

Chelsey Donn (16:03):
Thank you.
That's the word 'I was

Trey Gerrald (16:05):
Oh, really?
Oh, 'I totally made that up.
But that's what 'I was imagining.
This like patio

Chelsey Donn (16:10):
exactly.

Trey Gerrald (16:11):
wicker or whatever,

Chelsey Donn (16:12):
'I.
Think that's what 'I was picturing.
'I mean.
'I can look it up, but Roco

Trey Gerrald (16:16):
'I think that that's Garrett's opinion, right?
That they're ugly.

Chelsey Donn (16:20):
wait.
Rococo is like an art form.
Wait, Rococo.
It's A'.
More formal or cocoa Vinyl.
Anyway, continue,

Trey Gerrald (16:29):
That's what this was, right?
Rococo vinyl chair,

Chelsey Donn (16:31):
'I know.
That's why 'I am saying like, what?
It doesn't matter.
Okay, continue.

Trey Gerrald (16:36):
A'.
Very interesting detail to lead

Chelsey Donn (16:37):
It is

Trey Gerrald (16:39):
Also 'I saw when you shared the screen that this was in 2018, which to me that sort of explains why they're saying that for A' 90 minute massage, it was A' hundred $30, and they're calling that expensive because today, God 'I wish that that would be A' hundred $30.

Chelsey Donn (16:55):
'I.

Trey Gerrald (16:55):
'I think that it would be unfair to label this as anything other than valuable information.
'I mean they really spellout all that it has to offer.
They do tend to constantly interjecttheir opinion about how, like the Garrett can't tell the difference between the healing properties of each room, although that doesn't mean that it, they aren't.

(17:17):
True.
You know, like 'I just sort of waslike, well, why are you sharing that?
You couldn't tell the difference.
Like, are you A', healer?
'I don't know.
But 'I do think that there isA' lot of information here.
And as someone who has not enteredone of these spas, it does help to know like you are required to be nude.

Chelsey Donn (17:34):
Yeah, 'I mean 'I love that because 'I went to A' Korean spot for the first time without knowing any of that, and 'I was super uncomfortable when 'I was like, what do you mean 'I need to be naked?
'I can't wear A' bathing suit,but they're like, you cannot 'I.
And so 'I think that this review is reallyinteresting, like if I've never done this before, like it really breaks down the whole pro, even down to like at the spa that's near you in Fort Lake, it's the same thing.

(17:57):
Like you go and you take off your shoes andyou put your shoes in A' shoe locker and that's like, that's before you go to the regular locker and put your clothes in the regular locker.
Like that's A' very specific detail.
But yeah, so 'I do think there's like A'.
Lot of good information here.
But then what do you think about thewhole therapist in their underwear?

Trey Gerrald (18:16):
'I was literally waiting to ask this question, so I'm so like, of course, we're that in sync.
Justin and JC 'I was gonna ask, whyis the therapist in their underwear?

Chelsey Donn (18:26):
'I know, like you would think of anything.
They would be in the uniform, like,and 'I would think they'd be wearing the shorts in the, in the t-shirt or

Trey Gerrald (18:34):
The
shirt.
So as someone who has not been to A' Koreanspa, 'I do know that like Russian spas, like they're very famous for like that really harsh like mitten scrubbing where it's like,

Chelsey Donn (18:48):
yeah.
They

Trey Gerrald (18:48):
It all gets ripped off of you.
Yes.
Yeah.
They hit you and stuff, but 'I feellike I'm appreciative that Garrett has included that they're in their underwear so that 'I don't feel like I'm about to be assaulted or something, but 'I think it is.
A', very odd

Chelsey Donn (19:02):
It is, what do we think that Garrett does for A' living?
And they, they always tend to sayone does this and one does that.

Trey Gerrald (19:10):
'I think that they write children's books.

Chelsey Donn (19:13):
Oh, okay.
Interesting.

Trey Gerrald (19:15):
See Dick.
Run.
Run dick.
Run.

Chelsey Donn (19:19):
That's funny.
'I had, 'I had Yiddish withDick and Jane and it was like,

Trey Gerrald (19:24):
Oh yeah.
Uh, K.
Fetch.

Chelsey Donn (19:27):
Jane k fetch.

Trey Gerrald (19:28):
What do you think Garrett does?

Chelsey Donn (19:30):
'I think that Garrett ran the newspaper at his high school, maybe college too.
They're used to having an editor becauselike everything is written really well.
But then we have like A', few little thingsthat 'I think would've been caught by an editor.
But 'I, 'I do think there's an academic ness here.

Trey Gerrald (19:48):
'I do think that Garrett trained at the Margaret Mitchell School of Writing where you only get paid based on the number of words you include.
'cause there is too much.
There's just too much word.
'I.
Think the length is really long.

Chelsey Donn (20:00):
The length is very long.
It's definitely, but that's 'I also kindof feel like that's good in A' sense for these type of reviews, because what 'I would hope is like if you don't want all this information, that you would skip

Trey Gerrald (20:12):
You just skip it.
Right?
That's true.
'I mean that is, that is interesting.
One last clarifying question before'I ask you about the spelling grammar, even though we sort of touched on it.
What do you think the films arethat are screened at Kings Spa?

Chelsey Donn (20:26):
Oh, 'I know 'I thought that was super curious.
Like, do you think that it'slike up or is it Korean or is it

Trey Gerrald (20:33):
Yeah, 'I don't know.

Chelsey Donn (20:34):
know.
'I.
Mean 'I kind of hope.
It's like how style got A' groove back.
You know what 'I mean?

Trey Gerrald (20:38):
Can you imagine?
All right, so there were somespelling, grammar errors, and 'I.
Imagine they're being truthful.
'I mean the constant opinion throwingin is A' little, like obnoxious to me.
But, but 'I don't think that's being shady.
'I mean if Garrett thinks it's anugly Rococo, vinyl, okay, fine.

Chelsey Donn (20:55):
right.
Or if they think that the food is pricey and thatyou're A' captive audience and all of that, that's

Trey Gerrald (21:01):
The King spa scrub is A' must, or as they say, A' Mist.

Chelsey Donn (21:04):
Right, right, right,

Trey Gerrald (21:06):
You think this is common fluke or typical?

Chelsey Donn (21:08):
'I think this is pretty common.
'I think, well 'I, think it's just like verynerdy, you know, in an almost endearing way.
Like you can watch the promotional videoon the, the website where it's like how many people are actually doing that,

Trey Gerrald (21:23):
A'.
Good question.

Chelsey Donn (21:24):
you know, but maybe they're the Garretts of the world are.

Trey Gerrald (21:29):
it, it's curious to me, 'I 'I appreciate that.
Garrett spells out they had foot reflexologyand it was just, okay, which 'I agree.
I've had it once before in my life andI'm like, 'I don't really ever need to do that again, which is about to contradict the statement I'm about to make.
But then they got this massage that theyasked for it to be harder and then it wasn't.
So they just feel like theywould just skip massages.

(21:49):
But don't you think that there areA' varied list of massage therapists?
Like.
'I mean 'I get, they hadtwo and they were just fine.
And also it's an added cost to the entry.
But do you think that that's saying like,do you think that you can sum up all of the parts because they've had two massages?
Like don't you think there'shundreds of therapists Do.

Chelsey Donn (22:11):
think that there are 'I.
Don't think we're that used to seeing 'Imean it happens, but like the opposite of the compliment sandwich, right?
Like 'I like to say, which is like the insultsandwich or whatever, where it's like I'm gonna give these sort of insulting comments but they weren't insulting enough to keep me from giving it A' five star rating.

(22:31):
Like, I'm still gonna go back.
'I might not, you know, get this masseuseor something like that, or this service.

Trey Gerrald (22:38):
which honestly is pretty queenly, not very humorous.

Chelsey Donn (22:42):
No, it's not humorous.
It's like an article or somethinglike A' kind of boring article.

Trey Gerrald (22:48):
Yeah, it's like A', boring Vulture article.

Chelsey Donn (22:50):
Yeah.

Trey Gerrald (22:51):
'I think 'I can Crown.
Garrett, how do you feel?

Chelsey Donn (22:54):
'I.
Think we can go into the crowning.
Let's do it.

Trey Gerrald (22:55):
All right.
So ChelseyBD and 'I each have ourown set of zero to five crown cards.
Now, in an effort to be fair and notinfluenced by one another, we will simultaneously reveal our ratings.
'I.

VOICEOVER (23:06):
Queens are Tabulating
school.

Chelsey Donn (23:14):
Okay.
Very interesting.
Trey is holding up three and A' half crowns.
'I am holding up four crowns.
Trey, go.
First, let us know why Garrett is onlyworth three and A' half crowns to you.

Trey Gerrald (23:26):
So wait, is three and A' half, half

Chelsey Donn (23:28):
No baby three and A' half is one more than half

Trey Gerrald (23:31):
Something is so wrong with her brain.
'I.
Don't know why anyway.
Okay, but three and A', half, threeand A' half is appropriate 'cause.
Okay.
'I think it's better than middle of the road.
'I.
'I don't understand many things here.
'I don't understand the things Garrettlatches onto to like overly robustly explain.
'I was gonna say 'I wish theywere more photos of the interior.
But 'I, imagine you're not allowed to have photos.

(23:53):
And cameras if everyone's naked.
So maybe that, but 'I thought it was justbizarre that the one photo is of the food.
Absolutely no humor here, but'I find it to be valuable.
And 'I also think the insult sandwich iskind of queenly when it is A' five star.
'cause like you said,they're not being saccharine.
It's not just like I'm.
Pollyanna like it is sort of like 'I havediscovered the things that 'I find valuable here.

(24:18):
And honestly, 'I feel like 'Icould walk into King Spa today.
Armed with having read thisand feel like 'I know that the,

Chelsey Donn (24:27):
Know what you're in for.

Trey Gerrald (24:27):
scrubber is gonna be in A' undies and that's fine.
So three and A' half.
Very interesting.
ChelseyBD, why did you doA' half more and say four?

Chelsey Donn (24:36):
'I went with four 'cause 'I think this is generally A' pretty queenly.
Review 'I.
Do think there is A' A' audience that'sgonna be alienated and not want to read Garrett's review because it is so long.
And so that's why 'I couldn'tmake Garrett A', Review Queen.
'cause 'I just don't thinkGarrett is everyone's cup of tea.
But 'I do think there was A'.
Lot of really.
Thorough information here.

(24:58):
Even though it wasn't funny.
'I did see A' little bit of personalityin the fact that Garrett only uses multiple exclamation points.
'I found, found that funny.
Um, even the ugly and the ashes like that.
I've never seen that before.
And 'I believe that Garrett takes hisjob as A' elite reviewer for Yelp, very seriously and 'I wanna honor that.

(25:19):
Nearly A', Review Queen, but fourcrowns from this Review Queen.

Trey Gerrald (25:24):
All right, Garrett.

Trey Gerrald (26:14):
Very close.
Okay, so this game, I'm going to read you the nameof A' Spa Treat Nut, and you're gonna tell me if it exists, it's A' Rub, or if Trey made it up.

Trey Gerrald (27:18):

Chelsey Donn (27:18):
so can 'I tell you what 'I thought it was?
'I thought.

Kitten could scrub, could either be likethis, like for A' child, like it's like really like gentle, or it could be the

Trey Gerrald (27:27):
like the bunny slope.

Chelsey Donn (27:29):
like the bunny slip.
Or it could be the opposite,which is like very dirty.
So that was sort of like just disturb my mind.
A' little bit, but

Trey Gerrald (27:35):
Well, 'I love where your brain went.
'I, A', 'I made that up because there actuallyis A' Snake massage where they literally put 70 snakes on top of you and they just wiggle around and their little bodies and the bumps like so.
'I thought instead of that 'cause 'Ithought you might know about that.

(27:55):
So 'I said A' kitten

Chelsey Donn (27:56):
No, I've never heard of that.
That sounds like an absolute nightmare.

Trey Gerrald (29:18):
Unfortunately that one is fake.
Can you imagine how bad that would.

Chelsey Donn (29:22):
It would be bad, but the thing is that you can put like onions and garlic in your socks and it's like really detoxifying.
