(00:00):
Wednesday is day trip to Disney.Yeah. Strange, was it? And
I'm sure it happened to both ofyou. Oh yes, wait, can
I guess? Yes? The video? No last night, just going over
the week and having to remind ourspouses don't forget I'm going to Disney World
on Wednesday. Oh see, Itook you a step further when I told
my wife, don't forget you gotto pick my mom up on Wednesday because

(00:21):
I'll be in Disney. I dowant to thank everybody. I'm not exaggerating.
No less than forty million people sentme the video of the Spirit air
BWI fight going back to I don'tknow if that was Friday or Saturday.
Whenever I started getting it, Holycrap, that video was everywhere. It

(00:47):
may be that's where we're gonna beon Wednesday. The most shared clip with
us ever ever. Absolutely absolutely,And keep in mind we haven't even gone.
I've never flown Spirit before. Explainto me what was happening in that
video. Two people were fighting.I thought there are multiple combatants. Oh
yeah no, but it started withjust two over what just they were like,

(01:11):
hey, we're on we're flying Spirit. You want to fight? And
there like yeah, he said,that's how you figure out your seating aside.
But was it a ticketing issue?I have honestly, I have no
idea. I just go on thevideo. All you just keep hearing is
some laughing in the video. ButI have no idea. I have no
idea what it's over. Was therean update as to what caused the fight

(01:33):
for workers at BWI got suspended?Why? Oh so we won't see these
guys wednesday? I guess not.Well, they may be back. I
don't know how long the suspension isfor. It's in airport suspension. Yeah,
here you go. Bam, dude, Oh my god. So see

(01:53):
I thought it was just the guy. There's five total that are fighting.
Yeah see, but to me,the only people that are fighting is the
guy in the white dress shirt andthe passenger and but the first guy who
ran away but was involved. Again. Here watch the guy in the white
shirt. Bam, and then thenKaren Ron he kicks two times and he

(02:15):
runs away. These guys are punching, they're all fighting, yeh see,
but it looks like it really surroundsaround the guy in the white and the
guy that he's laying on top ofthat. He just cold caught man.
He pulls those stanchions right over freeup my hand. So the passenger is
in the shorts? Well yeah,guy, on can't Southwest employees wear shorts?

(02:36):
Stork can Spirit? I don't knowthat Spirit. Does Spirit even have
a dress code? I don't thinkso. And that's right out in the
that's bw. I but what whatdid the Oh yeah, yeah, I
don't like that. And here's oh, well, only the white shirt guy

(02:57):
is fighting. I didn't like thatwhile he was down, down and out.
I don't like that. I don'tlike that. I mean, they
say it's four on one, it'sreally one on one until that guy punches
them at the end. What areyou? I don't. Are you defending
the employees? No, though Idon't know what the fight was about,
I may, I may defend theemployees. All for Spirit adjacent we don't

(03:21):
know that they can hear exact roles, but they're wait, so everybody other,
everybody except for the guy getting hisass kicked, works for Spirit.
Isn't that why they were the suspensions? Oh see, I thought the only
guy that worked for Spirit was theguy in the white shirt. Spirit says
they do not directly employ the individuals. They're like third party workers. Oh
so their baggage handlers were Spirit.I don't know with their baggage handlers.

(03:44):
Why were they up the counter toget the bags? Or is this like
for forty dollars? Do you thinkSpirit pays to move your bags FedEx and
Amazon? Oh well, they're contractedthird party, right, but it's still
the same thing. It's yeah,come on, I mean it is.
I'm going to see that on Wednesday. I'm going to see that on Wednesday.

(04:05):
It is one thing to I'm goingto stand in that spot and take
my picture, take my picture atthat spot, to have all the Spirit
stuff send to us these past fewweeks. It was another thing to see
something straight from where we're leaving aswell. I don't know that we're leaving
or returning, but we'll be thereon Wednesday. What time of day was

(04:26):
this? It looks bright outside.Yeah, yeah, I don't know.
I have no idea mid afternoon.Wasn't it like three o'clock? Could you
imagine a flight got canceled? Couldyou imagine seeing that brawl take place?
No? I can't, Although Iat this point it's it's my fault if

(04:48):
I stand there in disbelief because we'veseen so much. By the way,
is it is? It is?The thing that's so odd about this one
is that it's a spirit related fight, but it's not on the plane.
I feel like I've seen stuff accounters, especially at the gate. This is
not at the gate. No,that's like out a ticket is Yeah.

(05:10):
By the way, has anybody hasanybody like I've never flown Spirit. There
goes another thing that I'll never beable to say. Again, I've never
flown Spirit before. But if anybodyhas, when do the incessant emails stop?

(05:30):
When you pony up a little morecash? I bought, I paid
for the tickets. I was like, listen, you know what I'll put
now. Don't worry. I'll getit back. But I'll go ahead and
pony up one hundred and sixty dollarsright now to buy all of our tickets.
Please make that clear. Forty fourpeople round trip, forty dollars and

(05:53):
fifty cents each. Forty dollars andfifty cents each. Yeah, it cost
me one hundred and sixty two dollars. Hundred bucks we just gave away.
I can fly two people to Disneyon and have money left over, I
can have half of a third ticket. Unbelievable one hundred and sixty two dollars.
Now I have probably received one hundredand sixty two thousand emails since then

(06:16):
saying name it, name it boy, and they want you to because I
didn't book seats. I wasn't goingto spend the extra ten dollars they got
balls. Also, does anybody knowwhat is seat bid? Seat bid so
you can like bid to get movedup further to the front of the plane.
Can I ask this, is everyseat on spirit except for thirty three?

(06:39):
Yes, there's like gum stuck toit. No? No, no,
But is every are there are onlytwo good seats on Spirito seats?
Didn't we look it up? Everysingle email is about get your seat,
get your seat, get your seat, get your seat, get your seat,
get your seat now, get atyour seat, to the point where

(07:00):
they make you feel like, Idon't know how many seats are on our
plane. There may be let's saythere's one hundred that they sold five hundred,
well, and you have to bidfor your seat. I'm not doing
that, okay, question, butyou being concerned about us like getting delayed
or not. What happens if twoof us get bumped to standby because you're
too cheap to pay the ten dollarsto get we already have a seat,

(07:24):
I have reservations. Okay, butyou just said they've booked overbooked this flight.
No, I'm asking because literally,look I printed it out right here,
spirit score more seat bid or seathold? Have you thought about that?
I just thought about that? Now, what's that? What happens if
two of us get bumped or oneof us gets bumped, I'll take the

(07:45):
bump. We need volunteers. I'mhere. Oh this was to get your
ass kicked by four employees. Idon't care, no, no, but
why I don't understand. I literallyI literally get five six emails a day,
get your seat, get your seat, get your seat, and you
ignore them. Yeah, well,I'm not gonna pay. It's ten dollars.

(08:07):
We're only paying forty. I'm gonnapay a twenty five percent fee to
get my to get a seat,my ass. I am thank you for
breaking it down for her, Butthat's what you're staring at. Yes,
will you pay twenty if you spendone thousand dollars on a trip to go
someplace like exotic, and they werelike, well, you could book your

(08:28):
seat, but it's gonna cost youtwenty five percent. You'd say, it's
always bat yourself. It's not basedon percentage though. It's a flat ten
dollars fee. Diane, I don'tknow. Well, I don't know what
seat bid is. I'll bet here'swhat i'll bid. I will bid.
I don't know how bid works,but to me, it sounds like you
say, I'll pay four dollars,then somebody else goes I'll pay five dollars.

(08:50):
I will have Spirit pay me tosit in a seat. By the
way, Spirit is not the USairline most likely to bump you out.
This second most likely. Oh what'sthe first frontier? Oh? Spirit bumps
five and a half passengers per onehundred thousand. Okay, you think there's
gonna be one hundred thousand people onour flight? Oh, we were four

(09:13):
of the five. I didn't evenI didn't even think of that. For
getting bumped, getting bombed, we'veall been bumped in our life. Yeah,
we're not. Do they bump peoplewho didn't reserve a seat? That
would suck? That has never onceyou'll see another fight. For all the

(09:35):
things we've thought about, including prerenting a car, which we're not doing.
I did like, if one ofus gets bumped, is it is
it like the alcohol warnings and thegeorgeown bathrooms over the weekend? No hooya
left behind? Do you go?Or do you stay back? If I

(09:56):
have to get if I have torole play this out, well, first
of all, it's if they sayonly two of you are going, They're
not going to leave it up tous, like it's based on your ticket
and your your your travel boot.But none of us have chosen to pay
the ten dollars or no do theseat bid. But I'm saying, so
would you think those are the peoplewho are most likely to get bumped?
I don't know. But to answerTyler's question of do some stay and some

(10:18):
go? I would bet that ifone of those that has a ticket being
honored to get on the flight,Tyler is not leaving a hooya behind.
Tyler's going to Disney. Hey,fill your borg with a fun mocktail.
I've never seen that on an allstop poster. And then don't hang out
with me if you're mocktailing a borg. Jesus Christ, drink water got it

(10:43):
sugar high from all the juice.I don't know. I hadn't even thought
that through. We're not getting bumped. I was so excited, you got
a better chance of getting your asskicked on the plane way to God as
it came out of my mouth.That is the first time I have thought
of that. Also, somebody wantedto know if we bought matching outfits for
the trip. I can answer thatf no, although you know what they

(11:03):
say if you do have matching outfits. They were asking experts where we're likely
to get tripped? No? Where? Where? Where are you to where
said matching outfits? What does thatmean? Like? Are there like places
where it makes more sense when you'rein Disney? And their answer was when
and where should you where your coordinatedDisney looks? The answer anytime everywhere.

(11:28):
I would venture to guess Tyler isthe only one who has any Disney branded
clothing. I will also venture toguess he'll be wearing some of it on
Wednesday. Yeah, I told herI was. I'm wearing a Mickey Hawaiian
shirt. This is my Donald Ducklaugh. Kristin, you don't have any
do you you have any Disney whereI have zero? You have zero?

(11:54):
Going how about coming. But Kristinlived in Florida. Kristen, that doesn't
mean I own Disney stuff, youknow, like losers do. We went
to Universal, never went to DisneyWorld. Oh you'll you'll never get to

(12:15):
say that again after Wednesday. Well, I say that we may all get
bumped. This is bumming people out. I'm not bumming anybody said, I've
never been more excited for one ofyour bits. This can't we can't get
bumped. Okay, you know I'mnot in charge of that. Well,
Diane says, if you seat bidthe oh my god, it is.
It's just ridiculous. Don't even bafflesme that you wouldn't want to the one

(12:37):
thing that maybe you could do toincrease your chances of making that flight.
Do you realize only five in overone hundred thousand people get bumped on a
Spirit flight? Okay, I'm havingtrouble putting that perspective. How many passengers
do they fly a day a day? Yeah, we looked up the flights
every million. Forget that number.I'm Spirit alone. Three million a day,

(13:00):
isn't it? It was five hundredflights a day? Right? Yeah?
Well, how many is not Spiritflights? Total? There's no Spirit.
Spirit has five hundred flights a day. Okay, yeah. They also
had zero happy customers, some withblack eyes. Over the weekend. One
of my friends was saying, like, enjoyed. It's the first and last

(13:22):
time you'll fly. You'll never wantto fly Spirit again. Why you watched
they had a horrible experience. Thebest flight of our lives. It'll be
the best flight of our lives.Every time I've flown Spirit, which is
three times, right, I've alwayshad bad luck with them. Mike has
flown them like two or three times. He's like, oh, I've never
had any issues. What issues haveyou had? Delayed flights coming back?

(13:45):
Like my return flight from Orlando towhere Ohio? Okay, well we're coming
to d C. And I've flownto and from DC. I guess actually
we're going to Baltimore. But stillsame thing. And they were all delayed
how long, like five minutes.No. I was supposed to be back
in Columbus by ten pm on NewYear's Eve. I got back to Columbus

(14:09):
at three am New Year's Day.Still home, my time to watch a
Winter Classic. That's all that matters. That can't happen. Were you on
were you delayed at the airport oron the plane at the airport. And
then oh one other time, Ohthis one was BW I two layover in

(14:33):
Jacksonville down to Saint Thomas and thereturn flight was delayed an entire day.
A life myself that seems extremes nota passenger. A passenger is going to
do it for me. I mean, it's gonna happen. People emailing me

(14:54):
saying they are more excited for theSpirit Adventure than the Disney Adventure. But
you guys are acting like you spentConcord money. It's forty dollars I know,
which means because I paid more formy Bob Evans breakfast on yesterday than

(15:16):
I did on my flight. Rightnow, the bids that I'm seeing because
Kristen sent me the thank you risthe email right oh, the wait to
bids for the for the this seatbidding. The bids are somewhere. Some
of them are thirty two dollars thirtytwo. Some of them are sixty seven
dollars, so more than the presentextra I have to pay. That's what
I mean. There's got to beone good seat, and everybody bids for

(15:39):
it. There's we learned. Whatdo they call it? The big front
seat? Yeah, the big frontseats extra wide from more comfort. And
I guarantee you there's more than oneextra wide person on that plane to Orlando.
Oh, and they're pre reclined anadditional inch. No pre reclined means
broken. That sounds I bet mine'sgot a hitch in it. A way

(16:03):
to defend yourself when you're being punched. I'm you know who got punched that
guy at the Spirit counter at bwy Hi Ellie in the morning. Spirits
dress code does allow their employees towear shorts excellent, thank you, And
the only caveat to that is thatthey be cleaner than Elliott's short. By

(16:27):
the way, it's funny you saythat. Can you see this stain on
your You're not wearing clean to Disney. It's a decent sized stay. What
is that? Thank you? It'sI think it's grease from some toast or
something. I don't know, butyes, these are my Disney shorts.
I'm not you think I'm gonna wearsomething clean to get on a Spirit flight.

(16:49):
We should have done now, I'mlooking through a list of matching outfit
choices. No, God, weshould have done that. Although you know
where, you can wear them anywhereanytime, because it is it's clear.
I'm going to be the only onewearing Disney stuff. Yes, and I
have my pins from Chad remember awesome? Oh we could have God, I'm

(17:10):
customized with Disney twenty twenty four.Oh I mean it would have been like
Elliott and Diane, like we're mousecouteers. Should I get a Mickey T
shirt for our flat Disney at Disney? Yes, just you have nowhere to
put it. You gotta put iton the I'll wear it. Oh yeah,

(17:33):
I'm always up for years. Yourfamily doesn't want anything? No,
really no, No, hasn't evenbeen there a bunch. Uh maybe once
as a kid. Oh so she'snot like you. She's right. My
kids have never been there and theydon't want anything. Couldn't care less.
Do they even know we're going?Umm? Yeah I think so. Yeah
they do because they know my momcomes in. Oh yeah, yeah,

(17:56):
No, No, they haven't askedfor anything. They haven't asked for anything.
M is the big ESPN Zone partof Disney. We won't see it
that. I have a question.Will we see anything? Doesn't sound like
and ride? No? Now Diane'sgot everyone thinking we're not leaving Baltimore.

(18:19):
Yes we are, well, Dianesaid, half of us are. Where
am I going? I'm one,by the way, if if if,
if three get bumped and I'm theone that doesn't, I'm going. Oh
so we are leaving behind. Younever answered that question. Oh, I
think it's got to be every now, Yeah, every man for yourself.
Okay, we're not going to beseated by each other. You've never been

(18:41):
and you're gonna go by yourself.I'll give you my lecture. No,
I got no, No, Igot a text message from Chad, the
engineer from Atlanta. No, he'sthere. That's why we're going this week.
He sent me a text one dayover the weekend. It was like,
dude, I'm here, just waitingon Wednesday. Oh yeah, look

(19:02):
at him leisurely walking around a park. By the way. Have we ever
heard of the Disney to Disney flight? What's that? That's back? The
NonStop flight from Orange County, Floridato Orange County, California, will take
passengers from Disney World to disney Land. Breeze Airways. What is Breeze?

(19:22):
They name it that because there's alwayslike a like a hole in a window
or something. Resumes the seasonal NonStopflight Disney to Disney. The NonStop flight
takes off from Orlando International Airport toJohn Wayne Airport. You gotta cancer,
airline officials said. Orange County toOrange County flight started eighty nine dollars.

(19:45):
The ball is so expensive coast tocoast for eighty nine bucks. Are they
fly out of Richmond? Yeah,I have quite a few destinations, I
think, breeze. I don't knowif they fly yet out of Richmond to
Vegas, but I think they're puttingin an a bunch of Richmond of Vegas
flights. Now, Spirit has holesin the windows except for that one extra

(20:07):
that you pay for. All right, let's let's start thinking positively. Oh,
like, what outfit we're gonna getbecause we have to leave so goddamn
early. You're going to be ina bad mood anyway. No, No,
I'm going to be in a greatmood. What time are we getting
to the airport? This is agreat one. What time is the flight?
I know what time our flight is. Our flights at five forty am.

(20:30):
Okay, remember you're not bringing anything, I know anything, right,
So we don't have to We've gotdon't have to check anything. Now you
are going to have to check in. So Spirit have an app to Spirit
have an app like mobile boarding.Are they gonna send me? Are they
going to send me our tickets?You haven't gotten that yet. I have

(20:52):
our confirmation numbers. Okay, well, but that's what I was saying,
like, we'll have to Is therean app that we have to go on
and checking check in? That waynever flown Spirit. I have no idea.
But you do have a number forthe kiosk. Yeah, do they
have a kiosk? I know theyhave a counter. They have stanchions.
I saw those knocked over in thefight. That will be there's no Kiosk.

(21:14):
It's the flights of five forty yeahfive getting there at five o'clock without
a seat, it's gonna spit aseat out when the ticket comes out,
someone's gonna spit time. What timeare you going to get there? Four?
Maybe about four or fifteen? Soyou're getting there at fourw Diane,

(21:38):
you're getting lax. I was goingto say four. You're getting there at
four? Yeah, because you haveto park and then take the shuttle.
No, no, I mean like, okay, that's fine, right,
I didn't think about that. Ihaven't flown out of BWI in years.
The well, you don't have totake the shuttle, will you walk in
the No, No, isn't thereisn't there. The last time I flew
out of there, there was parkingright by the terminal at what kind of

(22:00):
premium more than my flight? Ohgod, yeah, I'll pay the park.
That is funny, Like even thoughwe're going to Orlando, we don't
have to mess with like economy whereit's a daily, daily lot. I

(22:22):
may I may just leave my carin the cell lot, just walk on
over. Yeah, but you don'thave to You don't have to check anything.
You barely have to go through security. Well, no, you still
have to go through security. No, but I know, but like there's
nothing, Like there's not a bagto scan. I'm gonna take my shoes
off, throw them on the counter, put my phone and my earbuds in
there and aarpods and just walk through. So whatever, say four fifteen or

(22:45):
four four? No, now,I'd love to do five. I'm not
doing four. You have no ideawhat security is going to be like at
four in the morning. You neverknow nothing. Nothing. Also, there
could be an accident on the road, I should go now. I missed

(23:07):
a flight out of BWI years agobecause of an incident on the roads.
Then we should then then take theparkway. Oh, there's never problems on
the BW Parkway, and then takeninety Every traffic report you hear, okay,
So if one's bad, take theother. What's the harm in getting
there early. Then let's go nowand taste there an accident, let's just

(23:30):
get you know what. Let's goimmediately and already fighting
