Well, ladies and gentlemen, we've hit show three of the
night here on our recording, which you know what you get from
us at that point, it's bottom of the barrel in terms of this
crew. We're all a little bit drained,
we're all a bit tired, and most of all, Amy's extremely hungry.
She sent me a text about 3 minutes ago that said I'm
craving guacamole. So Jeff, fire up the Tesla.
We're headed for guacamole after this show.
OK, done and done. Oh, Jeff, some swig.
Are we at the? Bottom Are we at the bottom of
the barrel or are we at the bottom of the beacon barrel?
That's exactly what I that's what I heard.
I wish I brought down that little stuffed parrot that you
got. That would have been a fun
little. Has anyone else been there yet?
No, I am. I do.
Have a reservation. Not even me though, just you.
That's a few special press lady. Well, it's open though to
everybody now. You're special.
It was actually open every. I don't care what other people
say, you're special. One one of my friends says it
makes Oga's cantina look like the old McDonald's playland, he
said. It's not, It's not good, he.
Said it sounds creepy and sticky.
I give him that, I give him that it's good.
It it really made GO-82 feel sad.
So I. Haven't been there yet?
Yeah, you're not missing much. Hang on to your butts, folks.
Here we go. I'll just drink at home.
Hey everybody, and welcome to this week's episode of The DVC
Show. I'm your host Paul Krieger,
joined as always by my lovely wife Amy Krieger.
Hello. John's Kerry Big fat pandas in
the House. Welcome home everyone.
Mr. Derek de Boer. Hey now, happy Monday everybody
and say hi to Woody. Woody.
Hey, Woody. Look how cute he.
Is look how cute this guy is, Jeff Haslam.
That is. Cutie cute.
I was at least looking at the camera this time.
Sometimes when you go to Derek first, he does like a 15 minute
monologue and so I kind of check out and start playing.
We're on. It just zone out.
Yeah, I should. I should really go to you first,
shouldn't I? No, don't.
Please don't. No.
Derek, have you ever wondered what people ask when they Google
your name on the Internet? No, no, no.
Because I mean, Jeff usually does it once every Wednesday I
think is what he normally does, but no other than that.
But I have seen people like when when you do type stuff in, it
can be kind of comical to see what pops up.
Like for a certain topic, you're like, what?
People are asking that, like, why?
So yeah. Interesting.
Yeah, I really didn't set you guys.
Hold on sorry no joke I I did this just as a funny and I just
started typing is Derek de Boer and literally the first one is
how old is Derek de Boer? I kid you not, I'm taking a
picture. So I did type in Derek Devore
and Derek Devore DVC is in the top Google searches, so it's
definitely you Derek. Now I have to do me.
There's also a race car driver or something.
Yeah, they might not all be you, but the Derek Devore DVC someone
has, People have searched that 'cause it comes up in the top
searches also. Derek Devore Derek Devore Key
West comes up did did you have like like a Florida Man news
article happen in Key West one time?
Oh my God, Are you all right? Goodbye.
Yeah. What comes up is.
I put Jeff is John. Sicari married.
Disney, Jeff Haslam, Florida. Jeff Haslam, Utah.
I'm telling you. Amy yeah, don't put our names
around. Who is Amy Krieger married?
Well, anyhow, that's the point of this week's show is we're
going to answer some of the most Googled questions and also just
address some of the most common phrases that come up when you
Google things related to Disney Vacation Club.
I got this idea a long time ago. I don't know what what company
does it on YouTube, but I, you know, you guys watch us on
YouTube. I watch other YouTube videos,
but like celebrities will do it and like it's like what are
what, what's done about their name?
And they have like the little, well, I wasn't fancy enough to
get the little placards made or anything like.
That well, and this is not about us, this is about DVC.
This is not about us, this is about DVC.
Although all I. Want is about the questions is
what is Paul and Amy Krieger's ages so.
Old for me and young and Sprite they further.
I'm older than Paul, for the record.
I've aged worse, but we're going to talk about some of the
internet's most asked Disney Vacation Club questions and
we're going to go around the room and kind of answer them as
we come along through them. But that's that's what you're in
for. So if you don't like it, change
the channel now and. Guess what?
And and and Paul people need to realize and give you kudos
again, you and Amy, because every time we tape these shows
and we'll do like 3 and we get the topics like a day before, I
always start to wonder. I'm like, have we not done every
flipping topic like known to man?
Like how is Paul going to come up with new stuff and you
always. And he always.
Does it's always down to the last minute?
It is. It's hard sometimes.
And then the last minute something.
Yeah, yeah, We're laying in bed like the night before and I'm
Amy and I are just like, what do you want to talk about?
I don't know. What do you want to talk about?
Then sometimes we go to this group and they come up with
great ideas, too. Jeff.
Jeff, you've had Jeff's had some amazing, you know, ideas coming
up. From them that we're going to
use too, yeah. So yeah.
Yeah. You all come up with good ideas,
no? Well, thank you and your elderly
wife, so thank you. I deserve that.
I've called Derek Old so many times.
Hey, on that note, if you love our shenanigans, I love our
content. Please show some love for our
lovely brands here at Key Holder Vacations.
In the world of DVCDVC resale market where you can buy or sell
a Disney Vacation Club resale contract.
Monera Financial where you can finance ADVC resale contract.
The DVC Rental store where you can try before you buy, rent
some points or rent out your unused points for some cash.
It's getting into that time of the year if you're watching this
in real time, where people are needing some holiday cash or
don't want to say the dreaded word.
Annual dues are coming up before we know it.
So yeah, the time to be thinking about renting out some points if
you want that money. DVC Rental store and Unlock
Magic Unlock magic.com/DVC Fan where you can buy discounted
Walt Disney World or Universal tickets as well as Specialty
Park event tickets like. Staring at me.
Mickey's very Merry Christmas Party, Jellywood Nights and the
Halloween parties. Oh my goodness.
So by the time this goes up, it's going to be October.
It will be the beginning of October by the time this goes
up. Happy October.
One of my favorite months.
It's why it's why Panda has his Halloween shirt on.
I. Know I love that shirt.
And the rest of us haven't changed in three weeks.
Just like just took my new Halloween shirt off so I wore it
on the last. Show Eric.
Yeah, look, he's wearing his bowling shirt.
No doubt every time you talked on the last show, I'm pretty
sure. Because I was spitting too many
facts. That's why we love you, Derek.
Spit out some facts for us here. I feel you like you'll be good
at this first one. So again, to preface, what we
did here is we took a phrase and we put it into Google.
And normally Google gives you a series of different, you know,
most popular search results so that I can quit like slap in the
keyboard and type in and I can just click on that one if that's
exactly what I'm going to ask for.
So the first question that we put into Google, not a question,
but just a phrase. Disney Vacation Club number one
response that came up. Disney Vacation Club cost.
Derek, tell us about it. Is it expensive or can I buy it
with like 20 bucks? How much does it cost?
Shut up like you don't have one already banned.
It's such a generic question it's very hard to answer, right?
How much does it cost? I like to tell people that when
it comes to the cost of Disney Vacation Club, there's really 2
main costs that you have. You have your one time purchase
price of your said Disney Vacation Club points.
That is what you pay or finance with Monera that will allow you
to get said vacation points every single year for the life
of the membership. So if I have a one time purchase
price for say 100 points at Saratoga Springs for $100 a
point, that's $10,000. I pay that one time and I will
get 100 points every year all the way through until when
Saratoga ends in 2054. That's your first main cost.
And your second other cost is really your annual dues, which
are based on the resort you purchase and are priced per
point. So you can go to the DVC Resale
Market website and say, well, how much are the dues at
Saratoga Springs? I'd do that, but I have to put
on my glasses for you to do that.
So if I had 100 points at Saratoga Springs, you're
basically going to pay your annual dues that as a member,
you could pay them in January each year upfront, throw them on
your Disney visa, or you could do it monthly with 12 payments
with no interest, so 100 points. The dues for 2025 were $8.54 a
point. So if I had 100 points, 854
bucks a year, that's it. Once that purchase price is
done, you still pay your annual dues for the life of the
membership. So overall, those are really the
two main costs when it comes to Disney Vacation Club.
That was a really good, succinct answer.
It was good. Derek's really good when it
comes to those things. And I'm actually going to bring
something up that I feel like Derek will be able to explain
better because this conversation, this question just
reminded me of something that happened at work.
Like a few weeks back, I had a potential buyer ask me, he was
looking at a resale contract and he was looking at a contract
that was, I want to say it was 60 points.
And he said, can I buy this 60 point contract and then give
back ten of the points because I don't need 10 points and put
those towards like closing costs or, or can I buy it?
And then, you know, he, he was trying to figure out if he could
like change the contract around. And obviously, you know, this is
something I feel like we take for granted as being common
knowledge. But if you're new to DVC, no,
you know, you don't have a way to know this.
So you cannot split up a resale contract.
And Derek, I feel like you would do a better job of explaining
that because I feel like it's something we need to mention.
No, it's, it's a great point and I'm glad you brought it up
because a lot of people do ask that because they might see a
contract online and they might say, hey, Derek, this contract's
for 200 points, but I'm actually looking for like 135.
So can I buy it? But I only want to buy 135.
So you can't break it up. So it is a deed.
So remember when you're buying Disney Vacation Club, you're
buying a deeded real estate interest at a Disney Vacation
Club resort. So whatever that deed is, if
it's 200, you're getting 200. So if you need 135, you could
obviously buy 200, but then you're going to have points
leftover that you can bank. But we cannot break up a deed.
I've had people liking it to oh, so it's like if I somebody's
selling a house, I can't just buy basically the upstairs
bedroom, like right, you got to buy the whole entire house, so.
But you could buy the 200 points, use the 1:35, and then
rent the remainder. And that is a very good thing
because Panda and I'm sure one of these questions might be, you
know, how many Disney Vacation Club, how many points should I
buy? And everyone will always tell
you. More than always more.
More than no. Some people don't even use full
sentences. What Disney Vacation Club are
points? That was this.
That was one of the. That was one of the search
results. That I think 1.
Disney Club points are. All Disney Vacation Club are
points. That was my very first live chat
conversation with Jeff when he was looking into the club.
Jeff had asked that question. What are club points?
What are points? I've also realized, I've also
realized in the past five minutes that this this show is
going to be 7 hours long if we answer every single one of
these. At this line.
Right. Yeah.
Can we skip some? We are yeah.
I'm going to just under Disney Vacation Club because there's a
couple no brainers here. Disney Vacation Club rentals
comes up quite a lot. DBC rental store.com DVC Disney
Vacation Club resale comes a lot DBC resale market.com Disney
Vacation Club benefits. Great one to head back in time
one week and listen to the benefits show where the rest of
us just sat here and Derek talked for 25 minutes.
So definitely you want to go back in time and tune into that.
And Paul and Jeff and I haven't even changed our clothes since
then. We have not.
Yeah, it's, you know, it's rough times at the at the Krieger.
And we don't want this to become a resale show, but and that was.
It but it's true. Happened strut.
Buckle up. That's how I rope you in.
Jeff, I'm going to go to you this one.
Can you decipher what the what the people out in the Internet
world were going for with Disney Vacation Club login?
What were they searching for? They want Derek's login, which
is chicken thighhibiscuits@gmail.com.
I'm assuming that they're just trying to get to the member
services website like the main DVC page.
I would be would be my assumption when they're looking
for the login. Yeah, Disney vacationclub.com
upper corner, you should be able to navigate to that does.
Everybody have to login twice. I just noticed I log into my
dashboard then I want to go pay my loan.
I got to log in again. I don't know why does that
happen. That's only for loan payments.
Yeah, there you go. OK to act on.
Your loan documents, you have to have two logins.
It's one of those. Things I've always said I'd love
like 5 minutes alone with the guy that created 2 factor
authentication like. It's.
I understand safety. Safety first, yes.
I really have that than have to change my password every.
That's true. That's a relatively new change
Panda, I think that was late last year or early this year.
They they did it for the secure anything financially related,
especially loans. More sense to me if they just
said OK we're sending a code, put the code in, but you got to
actually log in again then do the code.
So it's just. What was funny was when they, I
think when they first launched it, you actually, you could
actually like buy it was very unsecure.
It went from like being somewhat secure to the the purpose of it
was double secure to then something happened and you could
like it was bad. Whatever happened was bad and
they had to like revert it back. I don't.
Remember exactly, but it was like all you had to do is look
at your computer and boom, everything was there.
Yeah, you didn't even need a password.
And it was just like this is something went awry in in
technical world. Techie Boo Boo.
Yeah. So for Disney Vacation Club, we
covered most of it there login rentals, resale Disney Vacation
Club benefits again, go back one week or go back and see our show
that we did on Disney Vacation Club benefits because we really
talked in depth about what all those benefits are how you
qualify, whether or not it's worth it.
Another one Disney Vacation Club point charts that is a very
common. Yes.
And we have those available on dvcfan.com.
We do. And if you go to dvcfan.com,
there's a search. Is the search bar still there?
Yeah, it's actually new and improved.
Search bar. OK, we have a new improved
search bar, so all you have to do is put point charts in there
and bam, you'll find them, as well as historical articles,
other point charts if you'd like to look back at them.
Want to go back in time to the historical point charts, You
know, a lot of a lot of information like that.
I'll also throw throw out there that both on DVC fan, there's a
link to this, but also on DVC rental stores website, there's
the ability that if you're just looking for a way to like plug
in some dates in a resort and see like how many points it's
going to cost you. Those kind of functionalities
exist across all of the company websites, I'm pretty sure.
So a lot of people that aren't members yet but are asking the
question of like how many points is this or how many points is
that or just don't want to navigate, you know, logging in
twice if you're panda, you know, to to maybe find an answer to
one of these questions. So.
If that was a member benefit I would buy it not to log in
again. Yeah.
Would you buy this benefit? Because I, I did on the next
round of questions I wrote is Disney Vacation Club and I let
it, I let it see what it what other things would be.
This is 1 though that's been very controversial in the space.
I think everyone wants it and no one wants to pay for it.
Is Disney Vacation Club app. Oh.
OK, I can answer this one. You know, I know.
I got this. I got this one and I'm sorry, I
don't want to make the show long, No.
I think people get a little bit confused here because I think
what they're asking for is does Disney Vacation Club have its
own app as like Disney World Magic Big Experience has its own
app, Disneyland has its own app, Disneyland Paris has its own
app. Here's the thing, first of all,
I, I, I don't trust Disney tech enough to create an app that
would be functional for at least five years before it actually
started to be functional #2 I don't think it would do anything
that the website mobile version does.
Maybe they can make the mobile website a little bit more
mobile. You know when you're.
In, I'd start there. In Safari or whatever, yeah,
browser you're in. Make that a little bit more user
friendly when you're on a mobile phone.
But listen it you can do everything you need to do from
the from your phone without an app.
Plus you can create your own app shortcut that goes right to the
website. It does feel like I have an app.
Yeah. And your annual dues are not
increased to pay for an app. Correct.
And that's the big one is I think that if there was an app,
what does it benefit? It benefits basically the
operations and the ability for members to book things.
And so immediately Disney Vacation Club looks at it and
goes, why? What is the benefit for us to
build that or pay for that and maintain that?
They would, I most certainly feel like, pass that along to us
because app development is not cheap.
It's me telling. You.
You know, it is not a cheap process.
DVC Resale Market is at had an app for many years.
It is very worthwhile, but it has been pricey.
Luckily we do have a Ben on staff who I know listens to
these shows. Ben is amazing.
He's done a big shout out to Ben because he is kind of our
internal app developer now. He has built the DVC Resale
Market app, the new improved DVC Resale Market app, which does a
lot of amazing things. It has a lot of future potential
also that I think will answer a lot of people's questions when
it comes to this in general. And then also the Key Holder
Vacations app, which recently launched, this is specifically
for our loyalty program, Key Holder Club.
So, you know, again, trying to answer this question the best
that as a secondary company you can to give the people maybe
what they want in terms of an app.
But yeah, shout out to Ben. He's a rock star.
Just texted him like 10 minutes ago cuz he's working on
something else so there you go. Yeah.
Derek is Disney Vacation Club RIP off.
Well, it depends. You can go back and watch the
benefit show, and I think you'll kind of get that answer.
No, I'm kidding. Yeah, it's no, of course, if
you're gonna use it, if you're going to use it and you go to
Disney, at least, you know, every year, every other year,
and you rent money to stay in Disney hotel rooms.
It's an absolute no brainer as people know that I like to say,
because you're giving Mickey Mouse your money anyway, you're
you're going to spend it. That's why the number one phrase
is always, I wish I did it sooner because people go, God,
Derek, if I added up how much I have spent renting Disney hotel
rooms year after year after year, I probably could have
bought what, 300 points or 400 points?
So the answer is a hard and steadfast absolutely not.
It is not a RIP off. You will vacation better and you
will save technically speaking, a crap ton of money.
So it's a win, win. Technical measurement.
Treat yourself. You just treat yourself better
than you would if you were paying nightly rates.
There's no doubt about it. Well, yeah, but if you're also
able to stay at like the Polynesian or stay at the Beach
Club or stay at the Grand Floridian for, you know, the
same money that people's renting a hotel room at the All Star or
Pop Century or renting these rooms, I don't care if you're in
the room, you know, for only to sleep in, why would you rather
not sleep at the Polynesian? Like, I mean, come on.
I mean, what? It's an come on.
What are you? Doing.
It's a no brand. Amy is Disney Vacation Club a
timeshare? Yes.
Good answer. We legally have to say that, but
basically we do have to just pause and legally say that or
else people come for us. We get this sometimes because
obviously our line of work is, you know, Disney Vacation Club
adjacent. And so explaining to to family
and friends and saying, you know what I do work related to a
timeshare. I don't know, for some reason
that feels sleazy to say, but if you I remember.
The first time I said it to my uncle and he was like, I've had
a timeshare I've been trying to sell for 20 years.
Yeah, I understand. Yeah.
But if you tell people that you work, you know you do work
related to Disney Vacation Club, it feels different, you know,
than than saying you do timeshare type stuff.
So you know, there is a different, yes, it's a
timeshare, but it's not, it's not a Westgate, you know what I
mean? This is not.
Throwing shade. Going to Versailles, this is,
this has value, you know, both financial value, both intrinsic.
Is that the word emotional value?
You know, there's just a lot more, a lot more there, I feel
like so. Yeah, ask, ask the audience
right now to raise your hand if if you know someone who has a
timeshare and says it's the worst thing on the planet,
everybody is raising their hands right now.
That is the number one phrase. I saw them all raise their
hands. But again, if you're going to
use it, because I've told the story where our great friends
back in Indiana, they had a timeshare up and use it for
Wisconsin Dells, you know, up there, which is a very touristy
place to go in the Midwest, but they loved it.
We went with them and stayed in great places.
So it's the people that have timeshares, or as Disney likes
to call it, vacation ownership, that if you're not going to use
it, it's a terrible, terrible waste of money.
I I think the big difference is that it's Disney.
Like my sister bought a time show somewhere in New York after
10 years, the ownership change, the food change, the place
wasn't, it's different Disney, the value, you know, what are
they going to do? It's just going to be there.
It's still going to be a good value and what you like, they're
not going to change that much. I think that's the big
difference. Yes you will.
You will still be paying off your loan in 10 years doing it
Panda. Someone in our neighborhood just
decided to start setting off fireworks.
They're celebrating Wednesday. They're.
Celebrating Wednesday. Like what the world?
Why? I'm going to breeze through this
next round of questions, so I apologize for the fireworks in
the background, but this is the best.
I mean, this is the best thing that you should be searching
Google for DVC fan, and I think I can probably kill this whole
list in about less than a minute.
First says DVC fan blog. Yes, dvcfan.com blog.
Yes, we do DVC fan YouTube. You're watching it right now.

We love you for it as well. DVC fan Facebook.

Always. DVC fan.
Facebook facebook.com DVC Fan. Last one no, it's like DVC fan
one. The group is DVC fan one.
We also have DVC fan. The page.
Your map is crooked, I just noticed while I was looking at
it. Last one, Jeff, you want this
one, DVC fan? Pete, No, I don't think any of
us are drunk enough for that one.
So yeah, we're going to move on. No, I do not.
What? Disney Vacation Club is the next
in our lovely list of Disney Vacation Club questions that we
asked Google the other day. And this is the ultimate one
that I think anyone starting into the club would ask what
Disney Vacation Club Resort is the best?
Well, I changed my mind. Wow, that was a quick mind
change she was so confident going into the microphone for.
Her. I was going to say Boardwalk,
but then that that conversation two shows ago shook up my faith
in Boardwalk. The best DVC resort is Aulani.
Now take me back please. We are going to have to do the
show that we historically do on this topic, which is like have
our community rank the top Disney vacation.
Club resorts because what I. What I yeah, it always blows me
away how much it changes from year to year as to like what is
the most popular? Normally it's the resort that is
like the most popular at that moment or the most actively
selling resort. So like my guess would be like
maybe Polynesian right now. Definitely not going to be the
cabins at Fort Wilderness. It's sold like 3-3 contracts but
Jeff best DVC resort. Polynesian.
Oh, I did not expect that. I'm going to agree.
Wow. You're going to be.
Sitting alone at Boardwalk with nothing to do because there's
nothing there. Sitting alone at Vero.
That's not true because the correct answer on the best DVC
resort is the one that you and your family enjoy the most.
That is what makes DVC so magical is 1 might not be my
favorite Bay Lake tower, but other people love it and I tell
them I'm glad that you love it because.
And Amy has responded to folks too.
That's what makes DVC great. There's something for.
Everyone just as. Long as long as I can always get
into the best resort. Which Disney?
While we keep him around, folks, the political answer, Give him a
give us a clap right there also. So can we give him a round of
applause too? He plugged in his lights this
week and so we're on the third show and they're still working.
So that also deserves a small little round of applause for
Derek. And I also just on Derek's
topic, he is so right. We're always going to have
different opinions. We're not all going to love the
same resort. And no, I'm not going to burn
down Boulder Ridge. I just said it's not my
favorite. Amy has got some hate.
I have gotten some hate from that, like it's not my favorite.
Between the two of us, between your Boulder Ridge comments and
my Simpsons. Oh well your your comment was
crazy but. Wow, yeah, I'm.
Just kidding. Tell us how you really feel.
I'm just kidding. Can this just become like a
intervention and actually be like the peer medium?
You don't get one of these. You.
Don't get one of these. Oh.
He looks like he hasn't had oxygen in like 3 days.
Oh boy, if anyone out there is listening and considering that
audio review right now, Jeff just held up a 3D printed
version of myself. So just so that you know what
you're missing and that yes, he looks a little jaundice.
So there you go. When we're talking about what
Disney Vacation Club cost also comes up in that conversation.
What does Disney Vacation Club get you?
I think also kind of our benefits show answers that
question. What does Disney Vacation Club
include? You know, it includes points and
the ability to travel to Walt Disney World or one of these
amazing properties year after year.
What Disney Vacation Club can be financed?
No, you could finance any, any resort and I don't know, I guess
it depends on how you're financing, but.
There's a whole show out there that we talked about financing.
How to pay for your DVC? It's great.
What I didn't do was actually type in all of these and see if
our shows actually come up as like answers to these questions.
Yeah. And I'm not going to get in the
weeds and say, you know, Oh well, you know, most loans
require down payment like DVC Direct and Monair and all that.
You can finance any DVC contract that you would like so.
I like that this one came up. What Disney Vacation Club
Reddit. So Reddit is actually something
that we've recently gotten into a little bit more and.
He. He means he.
Yes, we mean we mean he he had a whole conversation.
He had whole conversation with we and we decided that we were
going to try to do more Reddit because we have noticed that AI
and actually Google is prioritizing some Reddit stuff.
So if you are in the Reddit community, we actually have a
Reddit it the subreddit is DVC members and we're we're a baby
community right now, but we're growing.
There's also some other amazing communities that I'm also in DVC
member and Disney Vacation Club. Those are some subreddits out
there. Walt Disney World in general has
a subreddit. Reddit is a unique breed of its
own. I will just put that out there.
Every, every social media has its own quirks.
And yeah, Reddit, Reddit can be fun, but I'm embracing it.
We're going to we're going to give it a go.
So come join us in some conversations.
I think you, you told me about it, Paul.
Like the day that we did it and I think I went online and it
just kind of scared me because I'm old.
So I think I ran away. That's what same that's.
Pretty common occurrence with Reddit.
Reddit is definitely a younger generation kind of platform I
feel like. So not that I'm trying to call
you all. I think my wife did enough.
I'm still trying to figure. Out earlier in the show, yeah.
I love that they still think Derek is the oldest.
I love that it's not true. It's not true.
It's Jeff. Moving on from Reddit because
this would definitely be a conversation that would that
would that would be had on Reddit.
I feel like we talked about maintenance fees.
What are points, Derek, can you tell us a little bit about that
or Jeff? Jeff, why don't you tell us
about points? Points are what you buy when you
get a DVC contract, and those points can be exchanged for
nightly stays at a Disney Vacation Club property.
Wow, that sounded like recorded and perfect.
I loved it. It was perfect.
That was good. Pretty good for an old man.
I really promise you folks, we don't I.
Need new friends? We don't.
We don't if you.
Want to go to my Reddit that is Jeff needs new friends.
I'm taking applications. I'm going to.
Start that subreddit tonight. Just.
To see if anyone joins. For the I think.
Panda is older than Jeff and I don't know about Derek.
In the comments below this video, guess our ages and if you
get I'll. Be offended if you get.
All five of us, right? Derek will send you a slightly
used bucket hat. 100% done. Yep, do it, He.
Will it is signed he. Will even autograph it and
signed. He did for my birthday.
Colored. All figurine.
Yes, you can nail all five of our.
You've got to get all 5 right, So.
Yeah, good luck. That's that's where people are
going to use this show to start typing in Paul Krieger age.
I know now that now that Google search is going to get.
What do you think the whole purpose of the show was?
It was so that people start Googling us more like that.
That there's a ploy to all of it.
Derek. What?
I mean pick up on it. Amazing, amazing.
Anything that you guys are surprised missed this list or
was left off this list? No.
Discounts maybe? Disney Vacation Club discounts.
Yeah. We did.
We did say what? Yeah, Disney Vacation Club
benefits was kind of number 55. Yeah, 5.
Not 455. It was #5.
I thought maybe someone would have said like Disney Vacation
Club home Resort, you know, like wondering maybe they've heard
that phrase or they don't know what home resort is or Disney
Vacation Club use year. You know, those seem to be
common questions that people ask me every single day.
So I'm curious why that didn't show up.
When I saw benefits I was thinking more like I'm surprised
that somebody didn't actually Google DVC blue card since they
don't do membership cards like card cards anymore for.
Your mom, that is one that we've not.
People can hear that. And not know what that means.
I missed my card. Yeah.
Yeah, I still. Have lounges.
Lounges don't come up, huh? Under under DVC a couple, you
know, point charts comes up again.
Transportation guide came up. That was a surprising one for
me. DVC transportation guide.
Interesting. Yeah, that was that was a fun
one. Or maybe that's something I
searched for? It could I'm.
Surprised lounges don't come up because you would think that
people in the park who don't know about DVC.
Maybe none of this is real. This is all just like what Paul
searched for. No, yeah.
Is there a way to find out? Like what?
Is that search history? DVC member, DVC discounts, DVC
rental. We touched that DVC login.
That's pretty pretty common. Put DVC fan in there and just
see if anything else. Are you ever?
Able to to see like truly what is the most common searched
thing with Disney Vacation Club? I would assume it's cost.
Cost. That would be my guess.
Yeah, you can run in Jeff. Yeah, you can run.
In Jeff guys, you. Can run reports and stuff on
that but. My dogs have come into the room
and they're into stuff that they shouldn't be.
That's all I'm. Looking Oh, I thought you were
doing like a Stevie, Stevie Wonder.
Does he have 3D Paul in his mouth?
Is he gnawing on 3D Paul? That's what my dogs would do.
DVC fandom comes up. When you started typing DVC and
then the letter F, favorite weeks I noticed came up.
DVC for sale. DVC fireworks viewing DVC free
gift. Yeah, by the way, I wonder how
many people think that with DVC you buy a specific week.
And I know you can, but that's not the norm.
And I wonder how people think because most time shows you're
buying a specific block. The second, the second though
thing that comes up, you mean to answer kind of Derek's question
earlier, Disney Vacation Club cost under Disney Vacation Club
is cost is like #1 login is number 2 rentals, resale.
Careers. We missed that one.
Careers is is one that does does come up you know and Disney
Vacation Club does have have some jobs available from time to
time so. Sure, yeah.
Keep an eye out. On it, another one that's
probably didn't come up is like availability or availability.
Calendar, yeah. Yeah, that's true, Jeff.
Right. So, well, I kind of knew that
this was probably going to be a little bit of a shorter, shorter
show, but for those of us that are hungry on this call, we're
grateful for it, I'm pretty sure.
What kind of questions do you ask Disney Vacation Club?
Disney Vacation Club is Jeff Haslam.
I asked Amy. Yeah.
We all just come to you. We we don't Google.
Anything. Just ask Amy.
Yeah. Yeah, I I would be lying if
there wasn't a conversation internally about some show that
was supposed to be like, related to that.
What? Yeah, there was a conversation
at one point where it was like ask Amy or ask Paul or something
like that, and it was going to be like a whole series.
Well. Maybe we'll do it one day, we'll
see. I need to clone myself first,
I'm pretty sure. Jeff just did.
Already got you covered dude. Well, let us know your thoughts
in the comments. Let us know what you Google or
what comes up in your Google search history when you Google
Disney Vacation Club. And more than anything, I hope
you just had fun listening to us ramble on this show because that
was about 95% of it. But that's why most of you tuned
in I think regardless that in our happy phases and to see if
you. Cheeks hurt.
