1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,480
Is that a Roosevelt shirt, Paul?
It is a Roosevelt shirt, Derek. 

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,360
We're not sponsored by them yet,
but heck, we we should just talk

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,560
about them more. 
And Jeff's got a new Roosevelt 

4
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,760
shirt on there too. 
It's like an addiction every 

5
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:14,600
time I. 
Do me too. 

6
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,400
Oh, is that *? 
Wars, Yeah, it's the Star Wars 

7
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:19,200
one. 
It's look. 

8
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:23,400
At you happy belated me for 
those bed sheets when I was a 

9
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,960
kid. 
That is exactly when I got that 

10
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,080
text from Roosevelt saying this 
is the collection that comes out

11
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,320
tomorrow. 
Normally I'm like no more, no 

12
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,640
more. 
I, I looked and I go, Oh my God,

13
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,720
those are my bed sheets. 
And that first thing when they 

14
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,320
said it was live, I went on 
grabbed my size 'cause they sold

15
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,560
out like really, really quick. 
So yes, they're. 

16
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,440
Do you have things on your bed 
sheets going up? 

17
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,800
I had like just plain. 
We need to. 

18
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:48,120
Poo. 
Oh, OK. 

19
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,640
I guess I was boring then. 
There you go. 

20
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,480
Well. 
Hey yours have any dishes on 

21
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:54,120
Nepal? 
What was that? 

22
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,280
Does yours? 
Does yours have any Disney on 

23
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:57,440
it? 
It does. 

24
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,400
It's it's Stitch. 
There's Stitch on my sleeve over

25
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,600
here. 
So it's very subtle, very subtle

26
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,560
nod. 
But that's, yeah, those are the 

27
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,880
ones that I gravitate to. 
That's why I like, I like Jeff's

28
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,880
too, because it's like a subtle 
nod to Disney. 

29
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:12,320
I think there's little hidden 
Mickeys in there. 

30
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,680
Tiny Mickeys. 
Yeah, Tiny Mickeys. 

31
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,960
Well, hey, if you're listening 
to this show, go like tag us in 

32
00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:22,200
something on social media with 
Roosevelts and, you know, maybe 

33
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,080
they'll send us like one of 
their dog bandanas one time as 

34
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,120
like a gift, just like, you 
know, Red Baron Pizza sent us a 

35
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:31,520
key chain one time. 
Who knows? 

36
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,800
You know, it doesn't hurt. 
We've given them a lot of money.

37
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,240
I would definitely between us, 
we're, you know, paying 

38
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,720
someone's salary. 
So you look annoyed. 

39
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,800
I'm not annoyed. 
I was thinking in my head how 

40
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,480
it's among us because there's 
three between US 2 and that's 

41
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,480
what was going on in my head. 
But I wasn't going to correct 

42
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,880
you because. 
Oh, it's it's the few several 

43
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,920
battle all over again. 
You. 

44
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,560
You better leave all of this 
next. 

45
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,400
Thursday or Thursday? 
Oh, the next Thursday. 

46
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,120
Oh my gosh, don't even get me 
started on that. 

47
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:14,360
Sorry. 
Hey everybody, and welcome to 

48
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,160
this week's episode of The DVC 
Show. 

49
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,760
I am your host, Paul Krieger, 
joined as always by my lovely 

50
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,280
wife Amy Krieger, Sales 
Executive for the DVC Resale 

51
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,880
Market, Derek de Boer. 
Hey now, happy Monday everybody.

52
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:31,360
The Honorable Jeff Haslam. 
Hey dude, I like the new hey 

53
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,200
dudes. 
Like it's, it's very fitting. 

54
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:35,800
Somebody's going to. 
Sponsor us whether it's 

55
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,760
Roosevelt's Red Baron. 
Hey dudes. 

56
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,920
Yeah, I was somebody, I mean, 
but we've, we've named 

57
00:02:40,920 --> 00:02:43,320
everything that we've 
essentially been wearing except 

58
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,880
our underwear at this point. 
My shirt from Amazon. 

59
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,200
Fabletics, if you want to, if 
you want to sponsor me 

60
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,160
Fabletics, go right ahead and do
so. 

61
00:02:51,640 --> 00:02:54,400
But. 
I like to drive Porsches. 

62
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,240
Well, hey, it's good to have the
band back together. 

63
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:05,520
Sorry that we left you all with 
a rerun last week, which it was 

64
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,560
great in the comments to to 
figure out how many people 

65
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,160
thought it was a rerun, but also
how many people were just like, 

66
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,720
this is a great new show. 
And also I think it was our best

67
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,360
performing show of the last 
four. 

68
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,400
So we're for the next three 
months, it's going to be nothing

69
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,760
but reruns here on the DVC show.
No, we're just kidding. 

70
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:30,000
Right here on DVC Fan. 
Constant repeats of older 

71
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,040
content and also if we say the 
words 2042, Derek's convinced it

72
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,520
gives us about a 25% ratings 
bump. 

73
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:39,680
Yeah, that's the name of this 
show. 

74
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,960
Disney NEWS UPDATE and what's 
going to happen in 2042? 

75
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,440
Well, we're super excited to be 
here this week. 

76
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,480
We do have some BBC and Disney 
news, I think to discuss. 

77
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,640
Since the last time we've all 
been together, we've all been a 

78
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,960
little bit everywhere. 
Me, Amy, Jeff and his Amy, Jeff 

79
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,160
and Dan, we were all in a cruise
recently. 

80
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,240
We're on Star of the Seas with 
Royal Caribbean. 

81
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,200
Derek, you've been up in the 
Midwest somewhere. 

82
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,800
I've been, I never want to hear 
anyone say that I don't go to 

83
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,880
the parks or anything like that.
After the last legit two weeks, 

84
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,120
I've checked in and out of three
different Disney hotels. 

85
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,519
I've been to 4 Disney parks. 
I had dinner at Cake Cake and 

86
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:23,920
I've been on a fireworks cruise 
and I went and saw Air Supply 

87
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,600
with Jeff. 
So that's that's huge. 

88
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:29,240
What were the three resorts? 
Polly. 

89
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,800
Grand Floridian. 
And Port Orleans Riverside. 

90
00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:34,120
Ohio Riverside. 
That's right. 

91
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:40,080
That was great, loved it. 
Happy belated 30th wedding 

92
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,280
anniversary to Derek and his 
wife Annie. 

93
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,640
They got to celebrate that and 
you got to actually go back to 

94
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,440
the the pavilion, right? 
We did, yeah. 

95
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,560
Disney was kind enough and we 
went back to the scene of the 

96
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:58,120
crime where we did it, you know,
on that exact day, May 13th, 30 

97
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,200
years ago. 
On that day, I gave him like a 

98
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,800
couple months beforehand. 
I reached out to them and did 

99
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,440
some tracking on, you know, 
shooting them an e-mail, telling

100
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,360
them my story, saying is there 
any way that we can just come in

101
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,040
if you don't have a wedding 
going on, obviously, and you 

102
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,120
could just let us take a look 
around, take some pictures with 

103
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,720
our phone. 
So someone there was incredibly 

104
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,120
kind and was able to meet us at 
a certain time and we got to go 

105
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,560
in, take some pictures, see 
exactly where everything 

106
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,960
happened, talk to them. 
And The funny thing is, as we 

107
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,560
were waiting, 'cause people that
were getting married the next 

108
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,600
day, we're doing like a quick 
run through. 

109
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,040
So we were at Franck's, which is
that wedding store that's, you 

110
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,320
know, right next door to it, 
waiting for for them to finish. 

111
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,720
The family walks in, we're 
sitting in chairs and they look 

112
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,960
at us and we say hi guys. 
And the guy goes, I watch you 

113
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:52,320
every single week. 
Hey, there's no joke. 

114
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,680
It was at the wedding pavilion 
on a random Wednesday at like 

115
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,600
9:30 AM inside Franks and one of
our incredible viewers. 

116
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,080
So I'm sorry I can't remember 
your name, but I'm sure you had 

117
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,960
the most incredible. 
Wedding Congratulations to them 

118
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,960
who got married obviously like 
the next day. 

119
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,280
Was it the next day? 
The very next day we saw them 

120
00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:16,400
walk in from our balcony room at
the Grand. 

121
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,720
And so he told us it was like a 
930 wedding. 

122
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,080
And then we actually set our 
clocks and said let's go see 

123
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,280
everybody walk in. 
And we saw the bride and groom 

124
00:06:23,280 --> 00:06:26,200
and all their friends come in. 
It was it was awesome. 

125
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,960
So it was, it was a beautiful 
day and a beautiful evening. 

126
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:30,280
Yeah, it was great. 
So. 

127
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,560
That's awesome. 
And then Jeff, you got off, you 

128
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,960
got off the cruise ship and then
beelined it for Utah. 

129
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,360
I did, yeah. 
We had a family reunion back in 

130
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,280
Utah. 
It's good to be home, say that. 

131
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,360
We've been home since the 
cruise. 

132
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:49,600
Our house is now back in order 
after a bagel brawl, a butt 

133
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,160
incident with one of our dogs, 
and a carpet incident with one 

134
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,200
of our dogs. 
So yeah, life is back to normal,

135
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:57,840
but it's good to all be back 
together. 

136
00:06:57,840 --> 00:07:00,560
And this week we're talking 
Disney and BBC News, a little 

137
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,520
bit of everything. 
We've got some new DVC 

138
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,440
incentives, Halloween party 
tickets, Muppets rock and roller

139
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,160
coaster, welcome home weeks, 
leadership shake ups at the 

140
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,720
Disney parks, and more. 
Before we get into it, this and 

141
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,560
all of our DVC fan content is 
brought to you by Key Holder 

142
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,800
Vacations and the World of DVC. 
You guys show enough love for 

143
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,760
them all the time. 
I want to do my own plug though 

144
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,840
this week for two different 
things. 

145
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:28,320
The DVC fan forums 
forums.dvcfan.com. 

146
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,920
We have about 2500 of you 
already signed up and joining us

147
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,920
in the forums having some 
amazing conversations. 

148
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,800
It's not just Disney Vacation 
Club. 

149
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,800
Also, we know that you are 
listeners. 

150
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,920
Our viewers are not just Disney 
Vacation Club members anymore. 

151
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,480
You decide to tune in to us for 
other stuff for some reason or 

152
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,480
another, but we can talk about 
your park plans, all that kind 

153
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,880
of fun stuff. 
The Roefer Monster even has an 

154
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,200
account in there and it's 
posting weekly, which is still a

155
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,200
little bit weird. 
And Derek get into gets into 

156
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,080
some occasional arguments with 
them. 

157
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,480
But also bbcfan.com had some 
updates recently, didn't it? 

158
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,080
Oh yeah, I was. 
I was like, what is he going 

159
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:06,920
with this? 
Where's he going? 

160
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,680
I don't know because we don't 
plan any of this so. 

161
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,680
It's written down. 
So when we launched the forums, 

162
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,360
it was decided that we would be 
ad free and we were so excited 

163
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,440
about that because it just makes
everything just easier to 

164
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,960
navigate smoother. 
You don't have ads popping up, 

165
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,920
you know, you, you know how that
goes with with a lot of 

166
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,080
websites. 
We just got such a good response

167
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:34,280
from that that we decided to 
take it a step further and 

168
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:38,480
dvcfan.com, which is where 
you'll find our we. 

169
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,000
Have a website by the way, just 
in case you didn't know. 

170
00:08:41,799 --> 00:08:45,520
Full it always is full of news 
updates and really helpful 

171
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:50,400
articles and you know, editorial
pieces and and anything you can 

172
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,920
think of. 
We have some really great 

173
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,120
contributors over there. 
Those of you that might have 

174
00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,600
remembered Lauren de la Cruz, 
she is a a great writer over 

175
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,880
there for dvcfan.com among 
others. 

176
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,440
This guy, obviously I, I throw 
some stuff up there once in a 

177
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:14,440
while, but dvcfan.com is now 
completely ad free Google ad 

178
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,760
free. 
So you'll see a few things from 

179
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,800
our, you know, company, but 
nothing like. 

180
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,400
Yeah, really based off of user 
feedback and also personal 

181
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,320
feedback of trying to navigate 
that site with Google Ads 

182
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,440
popping up all the time and 
experiencing other news or 

183
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,440
Disney news or other related 
sites that constantly have ads 

184
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,200
running all over the place. 
And you're like, you don't know 

185
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,040
whether or not you're clicking 
on the X and then you 

186
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,120
accidentally click on the ad. 
And then now you're getting ads 

187
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,400
for whatever that thing is for 
the next 12 months. 

188
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,720
And then at some point you give 
in like I do and you buy it, 

189
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,360
which is just another mistake 
because then you're just going 

190
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,040
to keep getting the ads because 
you've now given the money. 

191
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:58,280
It's just so much smoother, well
organized, easier to navigate. 

192
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,080
So yeah, we're excited about it.
And wonderful. 

193
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,600
So dvcfan.com, if you don't know
that we have a website and you 

194
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,240
want some Disney news, you can 
actually subscribe to updates 

195
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,760
right there. 
Every time we post an article, 

196
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,560
it'll pop into your inbox or 
forums.dvcfan.com. 

197
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:16,160
Come over, sign up and join us 
for the fun there. 

198
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,040
Eric has a question. 
I do, I want to make a statement

199
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,520
because I was talking about DVC 
fan and all the different blogs.

200
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,760
I have to say that there's not a
day that goes by that I'm not 

201
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,880
talking to Gus over at the DVC 
resale market where they'll ask 

202
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:31,840
a question about one topic or 
another. 

203
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:37,440
And I will go to dvcfan.com and 
I will do a search based on 

204
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,160
their topic. 
And I would say 99.9% of the 

205
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,160
times boom, there is a perfect 
well written blog for me to 

206
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,840
share that, you know, with 
whether it's a member asking 

207
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,320
about what happened, you know, 
what's the difference if I have 

208
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,800
two different use years or 
someone says what's maybe the 

209
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,920
easiest resort to book at seven 
months or less or what's this or

210
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:56,800
what's that? 
DVC? 

211
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,360
It was perfect. 
In fact, I used it when just 

212
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,480
about two weeks ago I was at 
Pawley Island Tower with Annie 

213
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,720
and the boys. 
And we knew that there were 

214
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,680
fireworks that night. 
And something in my brain 

215
00:11:07,680 --> 00:11:10,880
clicked because I was like, I 
swear to God, I think Lauren did

216
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:15,280
a blog about which of these 
garden terraces right at Pawley 

217
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,480
Island Tower was the best one to
watch the fireworks. 

218
00:11:18,680 --> 00:11:22,160
Sure enough, I I went to one 
without reading the blog 1st. 

219
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,440
And I was like, this can't be 
the good one. 

220
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,760
And I looked up the blog and I 
go quick, we got to go up and we

221
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,800
went to the other one. 
And I go, this is the one I was 

222
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,320
hoping for. 
So I, I wrote an e-mail to 

223
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,640
Lauren that night and said thank
you so much. 

224
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,480
That blog worked out perfect. 
So yeah, any topic under the 

225
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,760
sun, we got you covered. 
A DVC fan. 

226
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,120
It's, it's amazing how you know,
seven years of writing and 

227
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,000
stuff. 
We have so many articles over 

228
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,280
there and yet in my head, 
there's still 7 million other 

229
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,200
topics that we still have left 
to to cover. 

230
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:56,240
And Derek said specifically 
99.99% of the time because he 

231
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,760
recently did get a question, 
which is the .1% of the time, 

232
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:04,520
which is how much is a 1934 
wheat penny worth? 

233
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:09,080
And I've not written that one 
yet, but that was a question 

234
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,960
sent in to Derek de Boer. 
And sorry we did not have the 

235
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,760
answer to that, but we are 
actively researching to see how 

236
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,560
much that penny might be worth 
for you. 

237
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,560
Yeah. 
And that's probably going to 

238
00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:22,400
wind up being the one sponsor we
get is wheat pennies. 

239
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,360
You guys, you guys get. 
Pennies were worthless. 

240
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,160
It wasn't that like the whole 
thing. 

241
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,520
I don't know. 
I you know more about pennies, 

242
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,560
apparently, than we do. 
I know that we don't make 

243
00:12:34,560 --> 00:12:36,960
pennies anymore and. 
Like they're becoming a penny, 

244
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,960
but I always remember them. 
Not my mom. 

245
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,400
My mom likes pennies or not 
pennies. 

246
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,280
She likes coins. 
She collects coins. 

247
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,120
And I just always thought, I 
don't know. 

248
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,280
Kudos to those of you that 
suffer through the 1st 10 

249
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,160
minutes of these shows. 
We got a lot of news to. 

250
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,040
Cover tonight, but. 
We're going to, we're going to 

251
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,200
pivot to Jeff. 
We may not talk about news today

252
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,920
at all. 
Well wheat pennies are worth 3 

253
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,400
to $0.05. 
I just googled it. 

254
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:01,680
Oh. 
I didn't. 

255
00:13:01,680 --> 00:13:03,200
You could double your 
investment. 

256
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,840
Don't know why we're asking DVC 
resale agents that question, but

257
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,080
hey, here we are moving on on to
the news that you've all come 

258
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,960
here to maybe talk about in no 
particular order. 

259
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,560
And I do want to preface this by
saying next week's show is going

260
00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:24,480
to be all about Lakeshore Lodge 
and everything that we know so 

261
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,320
far and all of our speculations 
and everything because we do 

262
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,160
know there's been some updates 
related to Lakeshore Lodge. 

263
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,800
Head to dvcfan.com, read those 
articles. 

264
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,080
We've unpacked kind of the 
concept art and the other 

265
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,040
information that has recently 
been shared. 

266
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:42,160
And we expect probably every 2-3
weeks that DVC and Disney is 

267
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,800
going to be peppering some more 
Lakeshore Lodge information out 

268
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,160
there. 
But we're not going to touch it 

269
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,000
in this show. 
We're going to do a whole show 

270
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,280
for it next week, which I'm sure
will age well. 

271
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,400
And Disney will put out all the 
new more information on it. 

272
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,120
And then it'll be aged in about 
3 seconds flat. 

273
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,800
So that always happens to us, 
but we're going to talk about 

274
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,520
every other piece of news that 
has happened in the Disney and 

275
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,680
DVC space recently. 
Try to kind of speed blow 

276
00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:09,160
through as much of this as 
possible. 

277
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:15,000
First one in no particular order
is that 2027 Disney dining plans

278
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,400
have been released. 
And the surprise announcement 

279
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,320
with the 2027 Disney dining 
plans is that we now have a 

280
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:27,080
third dining plan added back. 
This was pre COVID, a normal 

281
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,720
thing. 
It's the Deluxe Table Service 

282
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:35,480
dining plan, but now it's back. 
That one's the one we used to 

283
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,400
get. 
It is the one we used to get and

284
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:42,000
in looking at the cost of it, 
I'm just kind of like, holy moly

285
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,320
that's bonkers because the 2027 
Deluxe Disney Dining Plan is 

286
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:51,680
$163.01 one one wheat petty a 
night. 

287
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,160
This. 
Is actually like 1/3 of a wheat 

288
00:14:54,160 --> 00:15:00,960
petty. 
While children is 4685 per per 

289
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,760
person per night for that deluxe
dining plan. 

290
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,360
And you might be asking what 
does the deluxe get you as 

291
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,800
compared to that regular one? 
That's a great question. 

292
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,280
So three different options for 
2027. 

293
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,760
We've got the Quick Service 
Dining Plan, giving you 2 quick 

294
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:20,840
service meals per day and a 
snack and a resort mug. 

295
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:25,040
Table Service Dining Plan gets 
you one table service, one quick

296
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,360
service and one snack and a 
resort mug. 

297
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:33,080
And then last but not least, 
that Deluxe table service, 2 

298
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:37,120
table service meals a day, one 
quick service meal a day, one 

299
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:43,520
snack, and the resort mug and. 
So when we used to purchase this

300
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,240
deluxe dining plan pre COVID, it
was different. 

301
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:51,280
It was 3 meals period a day. 
They could be table service, 

302
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,320
they could all be table service,
they could be quick service, 

303
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,360
whatever and two snacks. 
So it's actually, they knocked 

304
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:03,360
down one of the meals to quick 
service and they removed a 

305
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,440
snack. 
And it's, it's a lot more money 

306
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,200
than I remember it being, but 
yeah. 

307
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,320
I want to preface the following 
conversation with the fact that 

308
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,720
we are going to purchase the 
Disney Dining Plan in 2027. 

309
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:21,200
We are going to do the regular 
table service dining plan, I 

310
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:26,800
believe during the weekend that 
we do the Dopey Challenge for 

311
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,720
marathon weekend in January. 
So we're going to talk all about

312
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,200
that probably in January and 
give our full thoughts on 

313
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,680
whether or not it's worth it. 
And what I can tell you is that 

314
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,280
a spreadsheet has already been 
run. 

315
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:41,840
And based off of the rough math,
it does look like it will pay 

316
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,360
off if we eat all of the food 
that we have put into said 

317
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,000
spreadsheet. 
And that ultimately is where I 

318
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:53,080
land when it comes to dining 
plans is that eating is slightly

319
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,440
a full time job. 
But I want to Derek, Jeff, give 

320
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,600
me your thoughts. 
Is the dining plan still worth 

321
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,000
it in certain situations? 
And what do you think about 

322
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,599
adding back this new Deluxe 
table service option? 

323
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,319
I'll go first. 
Is the kids free thing still 

324
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,040
happening? 
Gone for 2027. 

325
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,480
It is defunct for 2027. 
I will say, I'll put in 

326
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:21,160
parentheses and say as of now, 
because you know, if bookings 

327
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,520
fall a little bit short, then 
there's always a possibility we 

328
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,359
could see them at it back. 
Yeah, I I just don't think it 

329
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:29,800
is. 
We've done this math so many 

330
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:34,200
different ways and I just don't.
You just really got to want to 

331
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,920
eat like, I don't know, 
especially with the deluxe and, 

332
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,720
and like Amy and Paul, we used 
to do that too. 

333
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,480
And we'd come if you're doing 
table service and you're doing 

334
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:47,240
dining reservations, you know, 
as as Derek and I found out when

335
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,080
we went to Beer Garden for Air 
Supply. 

336
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,160
We. 
Had to wait quite a while for 

337
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,520
our table to be ready. 
So you're you're talking a 

338
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,600
couple hours for each meal three
times a day. 

339
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,720
So that's six hours out of your 
however many hours you're 

340
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,160
spending in the park. 
I just, I don't know, it just 

341
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,240
feels like all you're doing is 
sitting at a restaurant rather 

342
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,760
than out enjoying the resort 
during your rides, enjoying 

343
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,680
attractions. 
So for me, not anymore. 

344
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,360
I know there's a lot of people 
out there that love it. 

345
00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:21,120
It's kind of like the drink 
package on Royal Caribbean that 

346
00:18:21,120 --> 00:18:23,800
we just did. 
I didn't need to buy it, but I 

347
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,120
didn't want to think about the 
bill at the end of the week. 

348
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,600
So for the convenience, I get 
that part of it, but I'm out for

349
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,000
dining route. 
Nope, not for me, Derek. 

350
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:38,080
Yeah, No, I agree with Jeff 
wholeheartedly that I think, you

351
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,080
know, and what's interesting to 
me is when Amy said that that 

352
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,080
new one that they brought back, 
you know, of course it's like, 

353
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,080
well, we removed one full 
service meal and we, you know, 

354
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,920
took away as credit. 
And it's like what? 

355
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,280
It just sounds like the classic,
you know, we listened to our 

356
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,400
guests and what our guest said 
was they just have too much 

357
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,520
food, you know, I mean, nobody 
said that. 

358
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,880
So it's just to me, it's just 
they're shaving away. 

359
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,400
They're charging more money for 
it. 

360
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,400
And I think most importantly on 
vacation, I mean, this is me. 

361
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,880
I don't want to be at the mercy 
of my dining meals, meaning I 

362
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,800
don't know, you know what, where
I want to eat dinner. 

363
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,000
Sometimes. 
I don't want to be at Epcot and 

364
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,160
say, Oh my God, do you remember?
We have to huff over to the 

365
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,960
Magic Kingdom because we made 
reservations because we paid, 

366
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,880
you know, $200 a day to get 
this. 

367
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,160
So now we're going from park to 
park to park and all that. 

368
00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:27,800
The one that makes sense to me 
is maybe like the quick service 

369
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,840
one, because like Jeff said, it 
takes a lot of time to eat. 

370
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:36,000
I mean, like especially at a sit
down restaurant that it's nice 

371
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,920
maybe to have one. 
But I think that one that's like

372
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,320
what, two or three sit down 
meals a day? 

373
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,720
It just sounds excessive. 
So no, I'm out. 

374
00:19:46,360 --> 00:19:49,160
I, I want to say it was the 
Disney Dish podcast where I had 

375
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:53,960
heard this with Len Test and Jim
Hill and we recently had Eric 

376
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,440
Hersey on who helps helps with 
those podcasts and edits them. 

377
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,640
But I think there was a comment 
on that on that show that was 

378
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,760
talking about the occupancy rate
of table service restaurants 

379
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,200
around Walt Disney World 
property post pandemic, post 

380
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,800
COVID and how that's been 
significantly down. 

381
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,520
And originally they thought it 
was because they didn't have the

382
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:14,840
dining plane. 
Then they brought the dining 

383
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,640
plane back and now that 
continues to be the case. 

384
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,040
And I think this could be an 
attempt at them looking at at 

385
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,560
trying to get. 
Seats people in those seats in 

386
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,200
those table service restaurants,
but I'm not sure that it's going

387
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,720
to be effective in doing so 
because you've turned the day at

388
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,240
Disney into how much can we cram
into that day? 

389
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:39,800
And that's why people are are 
turning to quick service more 

390
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,960
often because it's like, we're 
not going to take that three 

391
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,560
out. 
Like if you did the table 

392
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,680
service, you're talking about A2
hour dining experience twice a 

393
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,520
day. 
That's four hours of your day 

394
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,280
that you're taking to sit down 
in a restaurant. 

395
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,640
Now, if you're ADVC member and 
you come here very often and, 

396
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,120
and it's a different type of 
trip, 100% get that. 

397
00:20:59,360 --> 00:21:01,560
And maybe it's, maybe it makes 
sense to you. 

398
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,480
And as Jeff said earlier, I 
completely get the people where 

399
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,320
it's like, you just want to set 
it and forget it. 

400
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,920
It's paid for, it's done. 
I don't want to think about it, 

401
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:14,720
but yeah, I, I just don't, I, I,
I wonder kind of the, the true 

402
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,160
motive behind why we're bringing
it back. 

403
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,920
And, and, and one last statement
on the dining plan for me, and 

404
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:23,640
this is the hill that I will die
on. 

405
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:27,600
I think the moment that thing 
was introduced, and I've talked 

406
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,880
about it before, Disney food 
quality overall went down. 

407
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,560
There's no way that anybody can 
dispute the food. 

408
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:39,080
Before the dining plan was 
infinitely better than once the 

409
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,120
dining plan came because I think
what they looked at it as a 

410
00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:44,640
corporation and said, perfect, 
we got all these people, they've

411
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,000
already prepaid, you know, 
they're what? 

412
00:21:47,120 --> 00:21:48,840
Yeah, just give them whatever, 
It's fine. 

413
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,440
When the first question they ask
is, you know, are you on on a 

414
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:53,960
dining plan again? 
I'm sorry. 

415
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,560
I think it could make a 
difference in your service. 

416
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,760
I think it always makes a 
difference in your food that I 

417
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:04,040
would love to go back to where 
there was no dining plan. 

418
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,520
But that's that's just me. 
Well, and if if what you said 

419
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,240
Paul is true about having empty 
seats and they want to get get 

420
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:16,040
butts in those in those tables, 
then maybe we go back to free 

421
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:21,160
dining or way discounted, you 
know, would you say 163 dollars 

422
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,480
or something for? 
For the deluxe staples. 

423
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:29,720
Yeah, we 6201. 
Listen, Disney is great. 

424
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,640
We all love Disney, but there is
no food on property, none that 

425
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,160
is worth that kind of money. 
It's a theme park at the end of 

426
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,080
the day. 
I know there's a lot of foodies 

427
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,200
out there that think Disney has 
a lot of great food. 

428
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,360
I can guarantee you I can find 
you a better meal for cheaper 

429
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,480
within 10 minutes of the 
property. 

430
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,600
That is not what we're not 
talking about gourmet dining 

431
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,960
here. 
We're talking about you have to 

432
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,920
buy it 'cause you're there. 
I don't know. 

433
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,000
I it just seems like if that's 
really the problem, there's 

434
00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,200
there's some profit margins that
could be wiggled to to fill 

435
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,880
those seats rather than we 
should charge $75.00 for chicken

436
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,720
Nuggets. 
Exactly hundred 163 bucks 

437
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,400
that'll that's take that money 
and go buy 2 pieces of cake at 

438
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:17,480
the cake steak shop. 
I will say that with the deluxe 

439
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:21,280
dining plan, I think that that 
gears towards because what we 

440
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:26,040
used it for was we took two of 
our credits and use it for 

441
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,200
signature dining most nights. 
But again, like if if you're, 

442
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,400
you want to be in the parks and 
stuff, you don't want to be 

443
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,920
sitting down to a fancy 
signature restaurant every 

444
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,800
single night, you know what I 
mean? 

445
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,920
So. 
And we're even like, so we're 

446
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,840
even doing what you said, but 
doing the regular dining plan 

447
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:47,720
when we do our Dopey challenge 
in January, because we're, we're

448
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,360
combining 2, I believe for 
artist point so that we can go 

449
00:23:51,360 --> 00:23:54,520
see Dopey and yeah, and 
everything the final day. 

450
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,920
So like we're still doing that 
same concept. 

451
00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:01,320
I don't know it just it's one. 
Thing on that too really quick. 

452
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,880
We should move on. 
But to use two table service for

453
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,240
a signature dining that's just a
character mill. 

454
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,680
I don't think that's fair. 
Sorry, Artist Point does not 

455
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:15,760
qualify as a as a 2. 
Yeah. 

456
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,480
Moving on in our NEWS UPDATE, 
there's a lot of exciting 

457
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:24,040
updates coming to Walt Disney 
World as of this show going up 

458
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:29,760
and summer 2026 speed round real
quick through everything that is

459
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,480
opening up. 
So we've got Rock and Roller 

460
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,400
Coaster starring The Muppets, 
which has already opened on May 

461
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,920
26th or will be opening as of 
this show going up. 

462
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,400
I think so. 
Right around that same time, 

463
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,760
Rock and Roller Coaster starring
The Muppets reopens. 

464
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:53,600
Sauron Across America also 
returns on May 26th as well. 

465
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:58,840
That's that new Sauron version 
for America's 250th anniversary.

466
00:24:59,120 --> 00:25:02,680
Bluey is headed to Animal 
Kingdom at Conservation Station 

467
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,560
on May 26th. 
And then also a couple smaller 

468
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,520
ones that have already occurred 
have been we've got Buzz 

469
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,640
Lightyear has reopened at the 
Magic Kingdom. 

470
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,200
We've got new experience that a 
couple times already. 

471
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:19,000
And then Big Thunder Mountain 
Railroad has reopened with the 

472
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,120
kind of its updates at Magic 
Kingdom also. 

473
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,440
We've all gotten to experience 
these in some capacity. 

474
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,520
Jeff is going to make a video 
over viewing all of these new 

475
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,800
things. 
But Jeff, I'm going to start 

476
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,600
with you. 
Which of these things are you 

477
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,720
most excited for? 
What? 

478
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,640
What has caught your eye? 
By the time this video goes up, 

479
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,440
we will have experienced most of
these. 

480
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:45,800
I know Jeff ran back to his 
house and changed his shirt and 

481
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,320
sat down. 
Because you just did Soren 

482
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,400
today, correct? 
I did, and you forgot the one 

483
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,760
I'm actually most excited for. 
I did Smugglers run Millennium 

484
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,760
Falcon with the Mandalorian and 
Grogu We. 

485
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,480
Were just. 
Talking about this. 

486
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,880
It really, it really depends on 
what seat you get, whether or 

487
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,120
not you're excited, because if 
it, if you're an engineer, 

488
00:26:04,120 --> 00:26:05,560
you're still going to be really 
disappointed. 

489
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,080
So. 
The rumors that I have heard is 

490
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,160
everything is way more 
interactive, that you have a way

491
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,360
more control with the buttons, 
with the even the Gunners have 

492
00:26:14,360 --> 00:26:16,600
way more responsibility. 
I'm here. 

493
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,160
They're a human. 
Responsibility. 

494
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:22,560
We just wrote it and I felt like
I I felt like I had a lot of 

495
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,920
responsibility as a gunner. 
I had to hit that button so many

496
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:27,400
times. 
She laughed and she was like, I 

497
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:31,440
better be jacked after this. 
You know you can just hold it 

498
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,320
down, right? 
What? 

499
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:36,920
You don't have to. 
I don't have to just keep going 

500
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,760
like this. 
Oh my gosh. 

501
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,040
And then when it bounces around 
and you're accidentally hitting 

502
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,240
the wrong button and Oh my gosh,
I didn't know I could just hold 

503
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:48,240
it down. 
Yep, you can not anymore, not 

504
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,240
after Friday. 
So this, this is a this is a a 

505
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,880
new thing that Disney is doing. 
I'm excited about because it 

506
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,360
actually launches the same day 
as the movie. 

507
00:26:56,360 --> 00:26:58,000
I already have tickets for the 
movie. 

508
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,920
We're going Friday night and 
IMAX 7:10 PM. 

509
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,440
Really excited. 
But yeah, no, actually, to be 

510
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,360
honest with you though, and 
Derek is going to hit me on the 

511
00:27:07,360 --> 00:27:10,520
side of the head, but I really 
enjoyed Soren. 

512
00:27:11,120 --> 00:27:14,920
I really did. 
I think, listen, everybody has a

513
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,120
Soren type attraction now. 
Vegas has one. 

514
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:19,400
New York City has one. 
All the theme parks in Europe. 

515
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,760
Ever since Disney invented this 
technology, it just spread like 

516
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,600
wildfire. 
Yeah, but what they did with 

517
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,360
this new attraction, or I 
shouldn't say new attraction, 

518
00:27:28,360 --> 00:27:32,840
this layover is give us another 
thing that they can switch out. 

519
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,800
Sometimes they bring California 
back, sometimes it's the world. 

520
00:27:36,120 --> 00:27:38,920
Now it's America. 
And I could see them doing this 

521
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,320
around the 4th of July every 
year moving forward. 

522
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,360
Swap out these movies it kind of
it for me was a hybrid 

523
00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:50,080
experience of California and 
around the world not as much 

524
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:55,880
CGI, but a nice overview of of 
these areas that that they're 

525
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,240
visiting. 
They kept the music the same. 

526
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,640
You know, I I thought it I 
thought it was great is it 

527
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,960
spectacular? 
No, but it's great. 

528
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,880
It's something different for a 
while and I think that's great 

529
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,440
and I love, I think I said this 
in one of the very first shows I

530
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,760
was on. 
Not everything that Disney does 

531
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:14,440
needs to be an E ticket 
attraction. 

532
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,040
The biggest discrepancy between 
Disneyland and Disney World for 

533
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:19,960
me was Disneyland invests in 
their rides. 

534
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,200
They're constantly refurbishing 
them, constantly updating them. 

535
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,360
Sometimes Disney World goes 20 
years. 

536
00:28:25,360 --> 00:28:29,160
I'm looking at you figment all 
these things that we're talking 

537
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,560
about adding in Zootopia and and
some of these other things the 

538
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,960
country bears. 
This is Money they didn't need 

539
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,280
to spend. 
We can argue about whether 

540
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,360
they're better or worse now or 
then, but at least they're 

541
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,280
saying, you know what, Nobody 
has been in this theater for a 

542
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,280
minute, let's give them 
something else. 

543
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,880
And I really like that. 
I'm really excited to see Soren.

544
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:53,200
I'm excited to see it it. 
Gave me the patriotic feels. 

545
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,840
It really did. 
Yeah, don't think I'm hating on 

546
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:57,520
it. 
I only sent you that comment 

547
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:01,400
when you know someone has to be 
the first to post it on YouTube 

548
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,160
and they watch it. 
Of course, watching in person is

549
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,640
way different than watching a 
YouTube video. 

550
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,280
One thing I will say, which I 
found kind of odd and I don't 

551
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,920
want to go down a sore and 
wormhole, is that when they show

552
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,640
Hawaii, it just to me a synergy 
moment. 

553
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,760
Why on earth didn't you like 
zoom in on Aulani? 

554
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,960
Like it just seems strange, 
like, you know, I mean, I'm not 

555
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:27,480
asking for non-stop Disney 
synergy, but that wasn't not 

556
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,000
true. 
But no, I'm super excited. 

557
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,440
I always love to do Soren. 
But buzz, we did buzz when when 

558
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,120
we went with the kids to the 
Magic Kingdom at night. 

559
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:42,080
That is a trillion times better.
It is fantastic. 

560
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,880
It's not even people liking it 
to men in black. 

561
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,840
That's at universal. 
Not even close. 

562
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,520
This is so much better. 
You can move your pistol around,

563
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,080
you could see exactly what 
you're shooting. 

564
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:57,800
It's such an upgrade that I 
loved it, loved it, loved it, 

565
00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,560
loved it. 
I love that it includes your 

566
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,640
score on the photo at the end 
too. 

567
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,360
We have bragging rates. 
Yeah. 

568
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,840
And gives you kind of the side 
by side comparison with who 

569
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,880
whoever you're running with. 
I will say honestly that I've 

570
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:15,320
ridden Buzz Lightyear more now 
post refurbishment than I ever 

571
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:21,880
did pre and that that's still a 
number total of three times in 

572
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:26,160
my life. 
But that's two times that I've 

573
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,200
done the new bus and I would go 
back and do it again. 

574
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:31,400
We we, I waited for it last week
when I was in the parks and 

575
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,080
yeah, it was, it was fun. 
And it's easier, like you said, 

576
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:39,800
Derek, much easier to track. 
The guns are much easier to hold

577
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:44,280
and you can move around like, 
yeah, it just All in all, a much

578
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,520
better attraction. 
No one said it yet, but I'm most

579
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,520
excited for Muppets Rock and 
Roller Coaster. 

580
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,840
There's been a lot of stuff 
coming out, specifically today 

581
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,800
as of us filming this show on 
Wednesday, May 20th. 

582
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,520
A lot of videos, a lot of 
photos. 

583
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,000
I don't know if you've ruined it
for yourself or not. 

584
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,760
I'm not going to say a lot on 
this show about it because I 

585
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,360
want you, you guys and the 
audience to be able to 

586
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:11,280
experience it for themselves. 
But seems like a knockout of 

587
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,120
park home run. 
And the the the theme with all 

588
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:18,800
of this is that all of these 
seem to be relatively simple 

589
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:23,160
overlays that just inject a new 
level of excitement into these 

590
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,040
attractions. 
The Soren thing, that should be 

591
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:30,080
something that's being replaced 
every five years, like at least 

592
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:33,400
like just refresh it, show other
parts of the world, show other 

593
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:38,040
parts of the US, very simple. 
You know, I, I just don't think 

594
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,240
that there's a lot that needs to
go into that. 

595
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,800
Same thing can be said about, 
you know, Millennium Falcon. 

596
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,840
The fact that that overlay has 
taken this long. 

597
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,360
Like there's been rumors for 
years that they built like 3 

598
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,200
different versions of that 
attraction and now we're just 

599
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:57,520
now getting the Mandalorian and 
Grogu version, which is a 

600
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,080
completely other new version. 
So there's probably someone 

601
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,880
sitting somewhere on other 
versions of that attraction that

602
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,480
we've never seen. 
Probably. 

603
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,400
So, yeah, all of that, all of 
that to be said, it just seems 

604
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,320
very, very easy for them to do 
these things. 

605
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,920
But very excited for Rock and 
Roller Coaster, hoping that we 

606
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,680
get into to ride it this 
weekend. 

607
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,720
If not, we'll have to get over 
there next next week when it 

608
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:26,840
actually opens because I am. 
I'm very, very excited about 

609
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,960
that. 
And Statler and Waldorf, That's 

610
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,520
all I have to say. 
The fact that that happened, we 

611
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,600
put it into the universe a long 
time ago. 

612
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:36,840
We did. 
I'm not. 

613
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,320
I've not spoiled anything for 
myself, so I am. 

614
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:41,120
Well, you hate The Muppets to 
begin with. 

615
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:45,880
So, yeah, but even like Soren, 
I, I've seen one image which I 

616
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,320
was excited about because it's 
actually a landmark that we're 

617
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:49,840
gonna go see this year in 
October. 

618
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:53,320
So, but that's all I've seen and
I've so I've not really been 

619
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,120
looking at anything. 
Is anyone going to think so? 

620
00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,560
I'm still the opposite, like the
second something hits I'm like, 

621
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,880
yes, I would like to do a 34 
minute walk through the new 

622
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,680
queue for the Rock and roller 
coaster and I'm looking at all 

623
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,240
the Easter eggs and I'm looking 
at this and show me inside the 

624
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,200
studio. 
I love seeing stuff. 

625
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,520
Derek's the first person to send
us most news. 

626
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,560
It's true. 
Or videos or. 

627
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,080
Like, I'm not, I'm not watching 
it. 

628
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,360
I'm not looking at it yet. 
Yeah, you know, text. 

629
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,960
I don't know Big Thunder yet. 
We haven't read that, so I don't

630
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:24,800
know. 
I've tried to. 

631
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,520
Yet I tried to, but it rained. 
Welcome to Florida in the 

632
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,520
summer. 
But yeah, that that happened 

633
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,480
last week also. 
Yeah. 

634
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:36,360
So hopefully soon we'll anyone. 
Excited to go try to get on the 

635
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,480
train and go see Bluey that has 
a virtual my grandkid. 

636
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:43,640
Or it'll be popular. 
No that my grandkids are they. 

637
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:48,360
I went and saw them while I was 
in Utah last week and or this 

638
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:52,120
week, whatever day it is anyway 
and I told them that the bluey 

639
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:57,040
was coming to Animal Kingdom and
they are very excited. 

640
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,880
I feel like that's like going to
be the sleeper chaos one of all 

641
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,720
of these openings next week. 
They know it's coming too, 

642
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,960
because there's a virtual queue 
and, and let alone the fact that

643
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:13,239
you've got to get on the train 
and the train goes and then. 

644
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,320
Yeah, you got to get everybody 
back. 

645
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,840
That's that's going to be. 
That that train situation is 

646
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,719
going to be a nightmare real 
fast. 

647
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:25,560
It's not going to be good from 
like a PR perspective. 

648
00:34:25,639 --> 00:34:28,760
Like I think they're going to 
get a ton of great PR with, you 

649
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,800
know, Muppets and soaring across
America and with bus and stuff. 

650
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,719
This, like you said, Paul, it's,
you know, no pun intended, 

651
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,400
because you take a train, it's 
going to be a train wreck. 

652
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:42,960
Like I feel like there's so many
people that you could fill that 

653
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,280
Rivers of Light theater for 
anything with Bluey. 

654
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,840
If it's like a Bluey dance party
or if it's just Bluey standing 

655
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,600
there doing nothing, you could 
fill that whole theater with 

656
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:53,960
people that will want to watch 
it. 

657
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,200
The fact that now you're got to 
do a virtual queue and then 

658
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,240
you've got to wait for a train 
and then take a train to go see 

659
00:35:00,240 --> 00:35:02,120
Bluey. 
I just think it's going to, I 

660
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,720
think it's going to be bad. 
That's just my opinion. 

661
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,400
So what you're saying is they 
should have done kite tales and 

662
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:13,880
made them bluey? 
From your lips, if any if if we 

663
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:18,040
can get kite tails to come back 
now you you just grabbed a Diet 

664
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,440
Coke and a popcorn. 
You just sat there and just 

665
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,120
watched them crash these. 
Kites into the stands. 

666
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,160
That was the that was my best 
animal Kingdom day. 

667
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:30,360
I know I had ever ever 
experienced but. 

668
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,840
One other thing that was fun to 
see when I was in the parks with

669
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,880
my kids a couple of weeks ago, 
it's fun to see the sorcerer 

670
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,280
Mickey Hat back over there at 
the animation. 

671
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,760
Studio, we saw that, yeah. 
Yeah, and the walls came down on

672
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,760
the padillion. 
Yep. 

673
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:48,960
Now you can actually walk around
down there. 

674
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,640
I don't think any of the 
exhibits or any of the other 

675
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,920
stuff is open just yet. 
That's also, I think coming on 

676
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,400
the 26th or as of this video 
going up. 

677
00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:00,200
This either goes up on the 25th 
or 26th. 25 is Monday. 

678
00:36:00,240 --> 00:36:02,000
Oh yeah. 
So it'll go up tomorrow it. 

679
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,960
Memorial Day, it's open. 
Up tomorrow and happy New Year 

680
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:06,600
Day, everybody. 
Yeah. 

681
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,760
But yeah, so a lot of exciting 
things happening here to kick 

682
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,000
off the summer at Walt Disney 
World. 

683
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:19,120
And we'll definitely have some 
videos and reactions to all of 

684
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:20,520
it. 
I know Jeff's already been 

685
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,440
anxiously at work trying to 
collect all of that video. 

686
00:36:24,720 --> 00:36:27,600
And we tried to convince Amy to 
go to the parks by herself this 

687
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,800
coming Friday, but she refused, 
as much as we really just wanted

688
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,920
to see that that. 
Point I was I was I was leaning 

689
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,880
towards it if Sauron was open, 
but then I realized Sauron's not

690
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,120
open now until Tuesday. 
I'm sure someone will let you 

691
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,280
on. 
No, the DVC one's on tomorrow. 

692
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,600
I know it's not on Friday. 
Just be Amy Krieger. 

693
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,920
Yeah, that's not how it works. 
Friday is like I don't, I don't 

694
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:50,520
even think they're it's open on 
Friday at all. 

695
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:51,880
A. 
Few other yahoos? 

696
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:52,920
Nope. 
You're not allowed to. 

697
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,320
And I just want to go on record 
and say while Amy Alone in the 

698
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,920
parks is really great content, 
you never have to go alone 

699
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:02,360
because I will always meet you 
there. 

700
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,440
Yeah. 
See, I would just tell Jeff to 

701
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,360
come. 
Still be fun to just see you 

702
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,080
walk walk around that would. 
Which Mexican restaurant should 

703
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,640
I go to? 
No, Jeff hates Mexican, so we'd 

704
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,560
have to go get sandwich. 
No, no, that would be you by 

705
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,400
yourself. 
That would be what that I know. 

706
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:16,520
I told Paul that's what I would 
do. 

707
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,000
I was like I would just go get 
like tacos at the quick service 

708
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:25,000
and ride *. 
Can you just make a video then? 

709
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:29,000
Amy eats Disney tacos 2042 and 
it'll. 

710
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,520
And talks about 2042. 
While eating tacos. 

711
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,040
While eating tacos. 
Dude people would watch that so 

712
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,280
much. 
That would get so many views. 

713
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:44,680
You're welcome. 
Moving on in our news, spring 

714
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:48,040
2026 DVC incentives actually 
recently dropped. 

715
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:54,560
So these replace the winter and 
early spring incentives and 

716
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,760
noticeably across the board I 
would say that these incentives 

717
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,560
were weaker. 
So we're talking about direct 

718
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,880
sales incentives. 
So if you're looking for a new 

719
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:07,160
direct contract and don't want 
to deal with Derek or the DBC 

720
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:10,120
resale market, this would be the
the avenue that you had head 

721
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:14,320
down. 
It's not. 

722
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,840
Like point for Derek for having 
the paddle. 

723
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,040
Yeah, it's like he knew it was 
coming and and he was ready for 

724
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,600
it. 
But Lauren Del Cruz over on 

725
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:27,760
bbcfan.com did a great article 
about these incentives and put 

726
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,640
together an article across the 
board. 

727
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:34,760
They seem to be a little bit 
weaker than the incentives that 

728
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:39,680
came before that heading into 
this kind of late spring, summer

729
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,600
period. 
But noticeably a couple things 

730
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:47,600
that were kind of interesting, 
$1000 annual pass holder 

731
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,240
discount. 
So in my eyes that kind of 

732
00:38:50,240 --> 00:38:55,240
points to, we want some some add
on points to happen over the 

733
00:38:55,240 --> 00:38:58,080
course of the next few months 
because normally a lot of the 

734
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:02,120
DVC members out there already 
are those that probably are also

735
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:04,840
annual pass holders. 
So we want them to be adding on 

736
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:08,000
points, $1000 isn't a big thing.
So I can't see it actually 

737
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,960
making someone make the leap 
into DVC for the first time, but

738
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,400
I could see some people may be 
adding on some contracts because

739
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:19,400
of that. 
Also Disneyland Hotel, they have

740
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:24,120
included the opportunity to get 
4/2 day Disneyland Park Hopper 

741
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,120
tickets as part of that 
purchase. 

742
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:30,440
That does replace the developer 
credit, so it's either you take 

743
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:36,200
that extra cash off of your 
purchase or or you trade that in

744
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,760
and you get these tickets. 
So make sure you do the math. 

745
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,400
Make. 
Sure that one or the other which

746
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,600
is which is the better bang for 
your buck there when you're 

747
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:49,200
actually looking to add on or 
purchase a new contract at 

748
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:53,880
Disneyland Hotel And then Animal
Kingdom Lodge had some 

749
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:59,200
incentives that were launched as
part of the spring promotion and

750
00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:03,680
these ones they did just always 
are mind boggling to me. 

751
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:07,520
And I, I kind of said this to 
you all in the show notes, but 

752
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,520
I, I was kind of like. 
Is this because it just got a 

753
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,160
refurbishment and a lot of 
people are just asking questions

754
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,040
about Animal Kingdom Lodge, so 
why not try to sell some points 

755
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,240
here while we can? 
I mean, the big take away for me

756
00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:23,400
is that even at the best 
incentive rate, it's bringing 

757
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,520
the price down to $187.00 per 
point. 

758
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:31,560
And right now resale is like 115
I. 

759
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,880
Think is like an average for 
animal Kingdom right now or 110 

760
00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:36,800
maybe. 
Yeah. 

761
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:41,120
So $8080 per point less on the 
resale market. 

762
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:44,800
I mean the only thing you really
gain by going direct is the 

763
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,200
ability to use that at some of 
the newer properties. 

764
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,640
But you do have a lower, you 
know if you if you buy there, 

765
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,360
you do have a lower expiration 
date and those points are going 

766
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,680
to expire sooner. 
So those were going to my key 

767
00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,600
takeaways from the direct 
incentives. 

768
00:41:00,240 --> 00:41:05,400
Anything, no, I mean, if you, we
always say this, if you are 

769
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,800
planning to buy direct anyway, 
then then definitely look at the

770
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,080
incentives. 
If you're not sure like oh, I'm 

771
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,400
worried they're going to have 
better incentives when these 

772
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:17,400
expire, then buy right on the 
cusp where you know, if there's 

773
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:19,600
better incentives that come out 
within that 10 day rescission 

774
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,560
period, you can resend and rebuy
with the new incentives. 

775
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,440
So. 
Derek, what points are you 

776
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:30,080
buying direct coming up? 
I already bought my boardwalk 

777
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:33,480
points in 1999 for like 60 some 
dollars a point so. 

778
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:36,760
Don't say that that just that's 
like a bullet straight to the 

779
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:37,880
heart. 
Yeah, I know. 

780
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:39,720
That hurts. 
That's true, That's true. 

781
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,960
But no, I mean, that's, you 
know, I mean, yeah, it's just 

782
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:45,160
more, more incentives and more 
and, you know, more reason. 

783
00:41:45,720 --> 00:41:49,200
I, I just think that at the end 
of the day, Paul, it's, it's 

784
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,080
like you said, they're gonna 
talk about animal Kingdom and 

785
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:56,880
offering promotions to it and 
throwing it at guests just 

786
00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:00,120
because then those guests might 
find that fascinating and they 

787
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,280
might do that. 
But again, who won't? 

788
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:05,720
Are the guests like our viewers 
that take the time and listeners

789
00:42:05,720 --> 00:42:09,280
that do the research? 
You know, if, if, if you don't 

790
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:12,440
do any research, if you don't 
take the time to look, you don't

791
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,760
realize that. 
Oh my God, I could buy Animal 

792
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:19,400
Kingdom for, you know, on 
average it's like 110, a $111.00

793
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:23,600
a point versus whatever Disney's
special that they're offering, 

794
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,240
and I'm sure they're offering it
under that. 

795
00:42:25,240 --> 00:42:29,040
Listen, we don't do this a lot, 
so this is a very limited time 

796
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,360
opportunity for you to own. 
We've just refurbed these rooms.

797
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,760
They look incredible. 
Here's some new slides and 

798
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,280
pictures of them. 
But again, if you take the time 

799
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:41,320
to do the research, you realize,
OK, I'll, I'll buy these resale,

800
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:45,320
you know, for $110 a point. 
I'll still use the same member 

801
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,040
website. 
And I need to stress that just 

802
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,360
for like a few seconds because I
get asked that all the time. 

803
00:42:50,720 --> 00:42:53,800
When you buy resale, you're 
going to use the same member 

804
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:55,880
website. 
You're not going to use some 

805
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,720
again, dark web website that 
takes you through the back door 

806
00:42:58,720 --> 00:43:02,400
of the DVC site. 
You're literally using the same 

807
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,920
member website. 
It's the same member phone 

808
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,480
number to call to book. 
You get the same free parking. 

809
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,720
You get the same extra magic 
hours. 

810
00:43:10,720 --> 00:43:13,040
Disney. 
Disney's the one that emails you

811
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,920
when your contract is closed. 
You get an e-mail from Disney 

812
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,760
saying, hey, congratulations, 
your account is all set up. 

813
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,600
Here's your points and loaded. 
So it's just important to know 

814
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,040
you're not treated any 
differently. 

815
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:28,120
And I'm super excited to report 
because we're in what may right 

816
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,160
now, back when we did months and
months ago when they, you know, 

817
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:35,000
here's the new $500 Disney, you 
know, buyer transfer fee, 

818
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:38,480
whatnot. 
I had said, you know, my goal is

819
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,520
that it would help speed the 
process up. 

820
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,440
And I will 100% say, and I 
thought maybe I was going to 

821
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:47,680
wait to kind of talk about it, 
but Amy and I, I know I've 

822
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:49,960
talked about it at length 
because we will literally like 

823
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:51,680
e-mail each other saying, Oh my 
God. 

824
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,120
I, I just had a guy that bought 
4 weeks ago. 

825
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,560
They've already closed, they've 
already got their points in 

826
00:43:56,560 --> 00:44:00,680
their account. 
So my main take this is I'm so 

827
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:04,640
happy that Roefer seems to be 
going a lot quicker. 

828
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:08,600
You know, back towards the end 
of 2025, it was like 30 days, 

829
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:12,360
maybe 25 days or whatnot. 
I think the average, Paul, you 

830
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,640
did a blog on it. 
I think it's around like 2 

831
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:18,000
weeks. 
Like for Roefer and even Disney,

832
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,880
closing your account once it 
closes for them to load the 

833
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,880
points, it was taken before like
4 to 6 weeks. 

834
00:44:25,240 --> 00:44:28,760
I've had people like within like
four or five days like to have 

835
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,200
their points loaded and in their
account. 

836
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,160
So I think anyone that was on 
the fence of like, what's this 

837
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:36,720
$500 fee? 
Is it going to do anything? 

838
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:41,720
I've had the most happy buyers 
because the process has been so 

839
00:44:41,720 --> 00:44:43,840
much faster than even they 
expected. 

840
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:47,480
We'll still tell you 60 days 
because God knows Disney could 

841
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,280
say we listen to our guests and 
the points loaded too quickly. 

842
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:54,560
So we don't want to do that. 
So I still plan on 60. 

843
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,240
But it's like wait times for a 
Disney ride. 

844
00:44:57,240 --> 00:44:59,200
Like, hey, look, Space Fountain 
says an hour. 

845
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,720
No one's going to be upset if 
it's 30 minutes, so I'm very, 

846
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:07,000
very happy with how quickly 
Disney has been in 2026 so far. 

847
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:09,920
It has been much improved. 
There's some things that you, 

848
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,360
you're, you're not, you don't 
complain about spending more 

849
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,160
money for. 
And this is, this is kind of one

850
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:16,080
of them because it was the 
biggest pain point for a lot of 

851
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,600
people. 
Because a lot of I, I, you know,

852
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:22,280
honestly a lot of first time 
buyers, they get in, they don't 

853
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,040
understand the product and they 
think, oh, I'm going to use 

854
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:26,680
these. 
You know, originally it would be

855
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,400
like, oh, I'm going to use these
points for this vacation that's 

856
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,640
four months away. 
When you factor in availability,

857
00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,680
so many other things like, you 
know, you had to kind of tell 

858
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:37,640
those people that, yeah, that's 
not going to happen. 

859
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,080
That's impossible, that that's 
still pretty impossible. 

860
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,640
But like depending on that time 
window, it's definitely less 

861
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,480
than it used to be just because 
the process has has speed up 

862
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:49,480
significantly. 
So are you guys ready for some 

863
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,440
Halloween? 
Yeah, I guess it's. 

864
00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:53,800
Me. 
Why would we be? 

865
00:45:54,240 --> 00:45:56,800
Why wouldn't you be in May? 
Because it's already halfway to 

866
00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,360
Halloween and Mickey's not so 
scary. 

867
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,720
Halloween Party tickets are out 
and the dates have been 

868
00:46:02,720 --> 00:46:05,880
announced for the Halloween 
party this year. 

869
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,360
Halloween night. 
If you were looking to go then 

870
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,800
that's already sold out. 
That's the early 9th. 

871
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:12,720
Oh yeah, it is. 
Yeah. 

872
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:16,400
Halloween night is sold out, but
the party starts as early as 

873
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:21,960
August 7th this year and I, I 
could have, I got on board with 

874
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,800
August 15th. 
I, you know, we would put up our

875
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,560
fall stuff and I could get in to
mid August. 

876
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:31,640
Yeah, August 7th, though I can't
mentally get there. 

877
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:35,480
I am really struggling. 
It's only like 2 months. 

878
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,720
Away it is like a month for my 
birthday. 

879
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:43,000
Yeah, I. 
And I'm not, I'm not able to go 

880
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:46,040
on August 7th because I think we
have tickets for Jolly Wood 

881
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:49,320
Nights if I'm not. 
Very, very accurate. 

882
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,160
Yeah, we're at the early preview
of Jolly Wood Nights. 

883
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,840
On. 
That on that night, no, this 

884
00:46:55,840 --> 00:47:00,080
Mötley Crüe is going to be going
on Friday, September 18th. 

885
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,360
Which reminds me, I need to buy 
tickets for that. 

886
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:04,720
So if you're thinking about the 
Halloween party and you need to 

887
00:47:04,720 --> 00:47:09,160
buy your tickets. 
Also, unwatched magic.com/DVC 

888
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:12,800
fan, this year they're offering 
you the ability to save up to 

889
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:17,280
$15 off Mickey's Not So Scary 
Halloween Party tickets. 

890
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,400
So head over there, get your 
tickets early because a lot of 

891
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,400
these dates, especially the 
closer you get into October and 

892
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,960
Halloween, not only do they sell
out, but they get more 

893
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,520
expensive. 
And I was very shocked that some

894
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,920
of these party nights exceed 
like, you know, $200. 

895
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:34,600
Yeah, that's, it's expensive. 
That's. 

896
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:41,040
An expensive cost, but you know,
I always say don't really think 

897
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,400
of it just as a Halloween party 
because if you are coming here 

898
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:48,560
during this period and you just 
want a really cool night at 

899
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,360
Magic Kingdom and be able to 
ride a lot of rides and get on 

900
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,880
them a lot easier. 
In a lot of cases this might 

901
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:58,840
make more sense than buying that
daytime ticket to Magic Kingdom 

902
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:02,560
gets you in gets you less wait 
times for the rides because most

903
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:05,200
people that are headed to the 
parties are not necessarily 

904
00:48:05,240 --> 00:48:08,080
hitting the rides hard. 
It's more about the characters. 

905
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:09,480
It's more about trick or 
treating. 

906
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,520
It's about the parade, it's 
about the shows, all that kind 

907
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:14,720
of stuff. 
Are you you excited to go back 

908
00:48:14,720 --> 00:48:16,520
and. 
I, yeah, I for some reason I 

909
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:18,920
forgot it's been 2 years since 
we've done a Halloween party. 

910
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,800
So yeah, it's always one of my 
favorites. 

911
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:25,440
I love the fall, you know, even 
if we go in August, it won't 

912
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:28,320
feel very fall, but in September
it's probably pretty warm too. 

913
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,120
But I love the the decor on Main
Street. 

914
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:35,520
I love just the way, you know, 
Magic Kingdom comes alive in a 

915
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:37,760
different way when the Halloween
party starts. 

916
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,360
So and I always have fun with 
the trick or treating. 

917
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,160
Jeff, ready for Halloween? 
Have you thought about our 

918
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:45,200
costumes at all yet? 
I'm just gonna put some thoughts

919
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:49,240
into it, but I'm not ready to 
say yet what my suggestions, no.

920
00:48:49,240 --> 00:48:50,520
Spoilers no. 
Spoilers. 

921
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:52,400
No. 
Just the four of us. 

922
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,040
There's a lot of options for for
four people. 

923
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:56,760
And I don't know. 
Is Annie coming? 

924
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:58,600
Derek? 
Amy wants to know. 

925
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,880
So six of us. 
Oh, yeah, We're gonna do some 

926
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:03,840
stuff. 
We're gonna do this. 

927
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:05,880
I love Halloween. 
I love Halloween. 

928
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:08,800
So. 
This is my scared face, yeah. 

929
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,840
And I know you guys well enough 
to know that you're not going to

930
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:15,440
go all out, but I have some 
Disney bounding ideas for us. 

931
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:16,880
I'll do it. 
I'll do. 

932
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,200
Whatever you want. 
I have a thought too, so we'll 

933
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:20,360
have to. 
Cool. 

934
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,400
Wow, this is the most. 
Told you about the. 

935
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:25,360
Planning that has gone into a 
Halloween costume. 

936
00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:29,800
I know in recent memory. 
Hey, look, I dress exactly like 

937
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:31,880
Roxanne. 
Last time you did, I had the 

938
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,880
same shirt, the same shorts 
Derek put on. 

939
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,800
The hair looks similar. 
Derek put on a T-shirt that was 

940
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,960
Prince Charming, so that was. 
That is true, I guess. 

941
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,280
Who weren't on the. 
Show comfortable one Who was the

942
00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:45,800
most comfortable 1 the whole 
night? 

943
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:50,120
This guy right here. 
He was the only one not shedding

944
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,160
I think mine. 
Was it was very hot. 

945
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:54,480
Mine for Max was a hoodie so. 
Yeah, it was. 

946
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,320
So that was. 
Not a good choice, but at least 

947
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,720
it was a short sleeve hoodie. 
So because that that is what 

948
00:49:59,720 --> 00:50:01,840
Max. 
Jeff, Dan, Amy and I won 

949
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,760
Halloween last. 
Last you did it was very shoes. 

950
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:07,080
Yeah. 
You'll have to put a photo in of

951
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,360
that. 
I will put up a photo in of of 

952
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:13,360
us in all of our Halloween 
attire from from the last time 

953
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:16,080
we did this. 
So excited to head back and do 

954
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:18,920
Halloween again. 
It still blows my mind that 

955
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,920
we're talking about it right 
now, but here we are. 

956
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:23,760
And it's going to be here before
you know it. 

957
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:25,640
Also going to be here before you
know it. 

958
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:29,960
The Epcot Food and Wine Festival
dates for 2026 were announced. 

959
00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:34,320
Party starts day before your 
birthday, August 27th and runs 

960
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:40,160
through November 21st. 
So that's what, almost four 

961
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:45,080
months for Houma of of Food and 
Wine Festival. 

962
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:48,880
August and September. 
October, November. 

963
00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:51,400
Three months. 
Three months I can't do math. 

964
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,480
That's why she does loans for a 
living on air financial. 

965
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:00,360
But OK, hear me out. 
I want to get your I I want all 

966
00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:03,840
of your thoughts here. 
Oh, I got oh, oh, OK. 

967
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,680
I, I Derek. 
Derek, you can go next. 

968
00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:13,240
Of all the Epcot festivals, this
is the one that's going stale 

969
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:18,360
for me. 
Yeah. 100%. 

970
00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:22,880
Yeah, Derek, why do you agree? 
Oh, it's 100%, it's fine. 

971
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:24,520
But four months? 
My God, you don't need it. 

972
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:26,120
Four months. 
Three, I did the math. 

973
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,440
Run 3. 
Three months, fine. 

974
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:31,480
It's still too long. 
Especially when the best 

975
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:35,600
festival at Epcot, Festival of 
the Arts is what, like a week 

976
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,080
and a half? 
I mean, that's what it feels 

977
00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:40,480
like to me. 
That is the best festival. 

978
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:42,280
Even the holiday they want can 
be stretched out. 

979
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,080
It's just Food Lion just goes on
way too long. 

980
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:50,240
And I'd be fine if it was three 
months, if they added back those

981
00:51:50,240 --> 00:51:54,720
seminars, if they added back 
that Festival Hall, that in the 

982
00:51:54,720 --> 00:51:58,600
Wonderful Life Pavilion where 
you could go and watch seminars 

983
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:01,120
and you could do your shopping 
in there for festival 

984
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:04,000
merchandise, you could see guest
speakers, all of that. 

985
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:06,960
So it made you want to go, you 
know, once and twice and spend 

986
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:09,040
all day there because hey, let's
hang out here. 

987
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:11,040
Let's watch this guy. 
Let's come back and watch this. 

988
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:13,920
But after that, I mean, that's 
not there anymore. 

989
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:18,120
So it's just the same stuff for 
three months straight. 

990
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,960
And again, I don't think the 
food is I I've never had 

991
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:25,520
anything at at the food and wine
fest that I'm like, Oh my God, I

992
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,720
hope they bring this back or I 
hope they bring that that back. 

993
00:52:28,720 --> 00:52:31,520
It's just, I don't know, it it's
just too long. 

994
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,840
And yeah, I agree with you 1000 
thousand percent, Paul. 

995
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:37,880
Yeah, Jeff. 
Agree. 

996
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:40,000
Disagree. 
I do agree. 

997
00:52:40,240 --> 00:52:43,360
I do agree. 
And you know, you look at flower

998
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,960
and garden, even some of those 
booths, or maybe it's only a 

999
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:49,920
couple switch up their menu a 
couple times throughout that 

1000
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,800
short window of time. 
If if food and wine did 

1001
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,600
something like that, I think it 
would be better. 

1002
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:59,680
But still, it's a really long 
festival and I just don't feel 

1003
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,840
like it warrants it anymore when
you have so many other ones like

1004
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,680
we've talked about a summer 
festival for. 

1005
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:09,320
Yeah, as long as I've known you 
guys, you know, it's facing 

1006
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,040
around the 4th of July with 
barbecue and and American food 

1007
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:12,760
and. 
Barbecue. 

1008
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:14,120
Yep. 
Exactly. 

1009
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,960
And while we're at it, like we 
just got done talking about 

1010
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,320
Sauron, have that coincide with 
the festival. 

1011
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:24,000
The International Food and Wine 
Festival can be your Sauron 

1012
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,800
around the world. 
Your 4th of July festival can be

1013
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,480
your Sauron across America, your
flower and garden. 

1014
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:35,280
I don't know, but you know, do 
some other things besides just 

1015
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,200
the boost because let's face it,
the MERF is pretty much the same

1016
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:39,760
every year. 
It's either going to be Figment 

1017
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,080
or Orange Bird or Remy, you know
what I mean? 

1018
00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:48,280
Like we have a lot of IP, Disney
has a lot of IP that we could do

1019
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,400
some different things with. 
And I really think they're 

1020
00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:53,040
missing the boat having 
festival. 

1021
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:56,000
The holidays only be like what 
is it 10 days or something? 

1022
00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:58,080
It's short, yeah. 
It doesn't start till the 21st. 

1023
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:03,520
You can start that way. 
Cool international holiday 

1024
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:08,320
things that you could cut food 
and wine in half and extend. 

1025
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:10,120
Yeah, that's all. 
The holidays should start 

1026
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:12,760
November 1st. 
Yep, I agree. 

1027
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:14,480
Go through Thanksgiving, go 
through. 

1028
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,480
I'm all for as many months of 
the Christmas holidays as 

1029
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,400
possible. 
Yeah, I miss. 

1030
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:21,600
I miss being able to walk 
through Epcot without a 

1031
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:24,200
festival. 
It's almost impossible. 

1032
00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:26,800
There's so few windows. 
We never even make it. 

1033
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:28,920
We live here and we never make 
the windows. 

1034
00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:30,880
Yeah. 
Show yourself out. 

1035
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:35,520
Yeah, I would like just to be 
able to open like walk through 

1036
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:39,200
without run, you know, running 
into people or I don't know. 

1037
00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:41,440
I don't know. 
I'm I get it, I get it from the 

1038
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:43,800
crowd point of view. 
I get it from the crowd point of

1039
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:46,760
view, but it's really boring 
when you walk around like. 

1040
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:48,160
I want. 
Something you could do your own 

1041
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:50,000
festival? 
You could go to a quick service.

1042
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,800
You could go to a quick service 
and get different little snacks 

1043
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,680
from the different countries. 
No, but then it looks so weird 

1044
00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:59,360
because you're walking. 
It's not like the boos go away 

1045
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:01,760
like the boos are just. 
There, but they're that is true.

1046
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,800
They're still there. 
But they're like shuttered up 

1047
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,120
with plywood on them, like a 
hurricane's coming. 

1048
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:11,600
It looks weird like. 
Halloween signs on on the front.

1049
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:15,480
Spirit of Halloween. 
I don't know. 

1050
00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:18,680
I, I agree with Derek, you know,
bring back some of those things.

1051
00:55:18,720 --> 00:55:20,000
Why? 
Why don't you partner with Food 

1052
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:22,600
Network? 
Bring in like some fun Food 

1053
00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,840
Network stars. 
Oh my gosh, and have mow people 

1054
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,840
down to watch Bobby Flay. 
Down. 

1055
00:55:29,240 --> 00:55:30,760
Wow. 
We're going to unpack that after

1056
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:32,480
the show. 
Maybe there's going to be an 

1057
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:36,640
after show where Amy confesses 
her love for Bobby Flay, but 

1058
00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:40,760
yeah, so there you go. 
But here's the thing, we're all 

1059
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:42,920
going to go back to it. 
We're all going to do it again. 

1060
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,480
We're all going to spend money 
there multiple times this 

1061
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,680
summer. 
So yeah, that's why it keeps 

1062
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:49,400
coming back. 
And we hope you enjoy it 

1063
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:54,440
because, you know, it's food, 
it's wine, it's. 

1064
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:57,400
Fun. 
There you go. 

1065
00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:00,720
They should really snip that for
a commercial for for food and 

1066
00:56:00,720 --> 00:56:03,520
wine. 
I I was really excited by this 

1067
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:05,320
next one. 
No one else is really going to 

1068
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,680
be because I remember when I 
read through all the things last

1069
00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:12,120
year. 
But 2026 Welcome Home weeks are 

1070
00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:18,320
back for Disney Vacation Club 
and this is Derek's eye roll 

1071
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:24,400
says it all. 
But for the 35th anniversary, I 

1072
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:27,880
felt like they they did some 
cool things here and I don't 

1073
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,400
know why, but. 
Terrace is just a Disneyland. 

1074
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:33,720
At least for me, we've been 
through this. 

1075
00:56:33,720 --> 00:56:36,400
I feel like you don't remember. 
Discount. 

1076
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:38,840
Okay, but wait, we went through 
this. 

1077
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,400
You and I are going to get to 
experience a lot of these this 

1078
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:43,000
year because we're going. 
To be. 

1079
00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:45,800
There it is, okay. 
God, God. 

1080
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:48,160
That we're actually going to go 
to Disneyland and be able to do 

1081
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,560
some of these things and even 
get to experience some of the 

1082
00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:54,320
Aulani ones. 
But great article up over on 

1083
00:56:54,600 --> 00:57:00,000
dvcfan.com, there is an extra 
quick service mobile order 

1084
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:04,160
discount out in Disneyland. 
There's table service, 40% off 

1085
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:08,160
dining that matches the annual 
pass holder table service 

1086
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:10,760
dining. 
There's free sweet treats. 

1087
00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:13,120
Jeff, you and I are just going 
to plan a week and we're going 

1088
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:18,000
to go to Disney Springs every 
day and we won't have to eat for

1089
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:22,080
the entire week because I think 
between all of these, there's at

1090
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:27,640
least free ice cream, there's a 
free doughnut, there's free 

1091
00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:30,880
movie snacks. 
No, wait, those are at resorts. 

1092
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:36,520
Never mind, there is. 
I'm trying to find all of the 

1093
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:37,880
ones Lucy Springs. 
It's up. 

1094
00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:39,400
You passed it up a long time 
ago. 

1095
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:40,000
Yes. 
Yep. 

1096
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:42,880
I was surprised. 
Bear with us. 

1097
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:44,320
Go back down. 
Down, back down. 

1098
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:45,640
Keep going down. 
Keep going. 

1099
00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:47,200
Down, down, down. 
It's right there. 

1100
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,240
Oh, OK, there we go. 
Yeah, I was trying to read it. 

1101
00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:52,560
I just saw the Donuts and I got 
excited. 

1102
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:58,800
There's Donuts on Wednesday. 
There is complimentary ice cream

1103
00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:03,840
at Eat on Thursdays. 
Fridays complimentary half and 

1104
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:06,000
half appetite. 
What does that mean? 

1105
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:07,520
I think they're just going to 
give you like a thing of the 

1106
00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:10,440
half and half Creamer and you 
drink it on Fridays at Frontera 

1107
00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:11,320
Casino. 
Frontera. 

1108
00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:17,240
Complimentary pretzel at Polite 
Pig on Mondays and then 

1109
00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:21,520
complimentary DVC slushy on 
Tuesdays at City Works. 

1110
00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:25,280
So there is something every day 
except weekends, I think. 

1111
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:28,120
Yeah, all right, say. 
Less you just tell me and I will

1112
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,160
be there. 
We're, we're going to go every 

1113
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:33,800
single day, take full advantage 
of all of our free things for 

1114
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:35,720
the welcome home week. 
And you know what? 

1115
00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:39,200
We're not taking care with his 
eye roll about. 

1116
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:43,400
No Donuts for you. 
It's not an eye roll. 

1117
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:46,720
Hey, like like Jeff said, 
anytime Disney does stuff that 

1118
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:49,160
they don't have to do, I will 
applaud it. 

1119
00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:52,560
They don't have to do this. 
They don't have to do welcome 

1120
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,040
home weeks. 
You know, I I think my problem 

1121
00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:58,840
is that they added into the 
whole package of trying as part 

1122
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:03,280
of trying to convince you to 
spend $250 a point to buy direct

1123
00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:07,520
is because you can go to polite 
pig and get a, you know, 1/2 and

1124
00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,040
half pretzel or whatever you 
said it was. 

1125
00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:15,440
So that's my only problem with 
it is I feel like you nasty if 

1126
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:19,640
you're going to plus up your 
perks to buy $250 a point direct

1127
00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:23,280
and make them worth something. 
But overall, for those that are 

1128
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:27,880
able to take part and enjoy 
these things, I applaud you and 

1129
00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:31,160
I'm excited for you. 
We're getting near the end, 

1130
00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:33,320
folks. 
If you've bared with us this 

1131
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:37,520
long, we should give a giveaway 
or something because I don't 

1132
00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,400
know how you made it. 
I don't know how we've made it. 

1133
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:43,720
But last couple things on our 
news lineup list, a little bit 

1134
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:47,800
of a leadership shake up at 
Disney resorts and parks. 

1135
00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:54,160
So Jeff Vale announced his 
retirement recently from being 

1136
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:57,120
the president of Walt Disney 
World and recently announced was

1137
00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:59,000
kind of a shake up and move of 
some people. 

1138
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:02,000
So Joe Schott is going to become
the president of Walt Disney 

1139
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:06,240
World. 
Natasha Rafalski is moving over 

1140
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:11,560
to be the VP of Disney Signature
Experiences. 

1141
01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:15,480
That is where Disney Cruise 
Line, Disney Vacation Club, 

1142
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:19,440
Adventures by Disney, all those 
live in Signature Experiences. 

1143
01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:22,760
And then Christoph Murphy was 
promoted to the president of 

1144
01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:26,040
Disneyland Paris. 
That is the role that Natasha 

1145
01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:28,600
Rafalski actually had. 
Some of these names should be 

1146
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:31,920
pretty familiar. 
When we did our CEO recap, when 

1147
01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:36,480
Josh Demaro was announced, we 
actually were kind of rumouring 

1148
01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:38,400
who was going to take his 
position. 

1149
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:41,880
And you can kind of just see all
of this shuffling and, and 

1150
01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:43,480
everything of all of these 
people. 

1151
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,960
Anyone super surprised by any of
these announcements or anything?

1152
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:50,840
I mean, it's all the kind of the
names that we all thought of 

1153
01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,680
when it comes to all of these, I
think. 

1154
01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:57,840
Yeah, the only surprise for me 
was that Derek wasn't one of 

1155
01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:01,840
those names, but they stopped 
answering our calls, so. 

1156
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:06,480
I think I the one that was just 
sort of shocking was Joe shot 

1157
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:10,760
for me because he had recently 
taken the signature experiences 

1158
01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:16,640
role when Thomas Maslin moved 
previously, I believe, out to 

1159
01:01:16,640 --> 01:01:18,800
Disneyland. 
So when he when Thomas Maslin 

1160
01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:21,240
left that role, he went to 
Disneyland. 

1161
01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:27,800
He was there briefly before he 
was elevated to Josh Demaro's 

1162
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:31,280
old role overseeing all parks 
and resorts. 

1163
01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:34,960
And yeah, he just wasn't there 
long. 

1164
01:01:35,240 --> 01:01:39,400
So that it kind of a little bit 
of a revolving door there at the

1165
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:42,680
moment. 
None of this really seems to 

1166
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:48,080
have had a large impact on 
Disney Vacation Club. 

1167
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:51,160
You know, Bill Dirksen is still 
at the helm of Disney Vacation 

1168
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:52,920
Club. 
He's probably still steering 

1169
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:56,040
that ship and guiding the vision
of what he wants that business 

1170
01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:59,240
unit to look like. 
Obviously, he'll report up to 

1171
01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:02,360
Natasha Rafalski moving forward,
and it'll just be a question of 

1172
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:06,200
is there any changes as a result
of that? 

1173
01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:09,400
But yeah, really early to tell. 
They're not even in their 

1174
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:12,040
positions yet, I don't think. 
I don't know if that fully took 

1175
01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:14,800
effect just yet or if it's 
coming up within the upcoming 

1176
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:15,280
month. 
I don't. 

1177
01:02:15,360 --> 01:02:18,160
I don't really remember that. 
Last but not least. 

1178
01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:21,480
Just a couple. 
Oh, sorry, sorry. 

1179
01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:24,520
I was just going to throw in 
just one comment too, that I 

1180
01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:27,160
think for the general 
population, I mean myself 

1181
01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:30,600
included, that I think anything 
that happens with Disney, no 

1182
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:34,880
matter what, no one's going to 
be like Joe shot curses. 

1183
01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:36,520
I can't believe you did that. 
It's not. 

1184
01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:38,760
It's going to always come down 
to Josh tomorrow. 

1185
01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:42,800
That's it. 
That's what 99.9% of the public 

1186
01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:46,120
will know that when anything 
happens, Josh tomorrow's going 

1187
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:48,240
to be the face. 
Whether something succeeds, 

1188
01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:50,880
whether something fails, it's 
going to be Josh tomorrow. 

1189
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:53,880
It's not going to come down to 
the new president of Disneyland 

1190
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:55,760
Paris. 
It's not going to come down to 

1191
01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:57,320
the new president of Walt Disney
World. 

1192
01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:59,520
It's going to come down to Josh 
tomorrow. 

1193
01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:01,520
That's the name and face of the 
company. 

1194
01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:03,600
These other people are 
incredibly important behind the 

1195
01:03:03,600 --> 01:03:06,320
scenes, but honestly, it's Josh 
tomorrow. 

1196
01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:08,520
That's it. 
Always going to be Bob Capek's 

1197
01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:09,080
fault. 
Yep. 

1198
01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:12,200
So. 
Quick fire. 

1199
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:14,280
Just a couple things that have 
come up in the past couple days 

1200
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:18,680
that I wanted to touch on. 
Last week we did our our 

1201
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:22,560
actually throwback episode that 
did really well on things we 

1202
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:25,720
wanted Disney to bring back. 
One of them we were talking 

1203
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:30,720
about revolved around airport 
related things like luggage 

1204
01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:35,560
transfer and it was just 
announced that the transfer is 

1205
01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:38,280
expanding. 
So they have been doing luggage 

1206
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:39,960
transfer. 
I think it's been exclusive to 

1207
01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:42,360
Southwest at the at the value 
resorts. 

1208
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:45,720
It is now expanding to include 
American Airlines and United 

1209
01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:48,480
Airlines. 
So things are moving, things are

1210
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:51,040
moving in the right direction. 
It's good. 

1211
01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:52,960
Let's just. 
Does that include spirit? 

1212
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:57,320
Yes, they will take your bags, 
but I'm not quite sure where 

1213
01:03:57,320 --> 01:04:01,840
they will end up at this point. 
Houston Park pass reservation. 

1214
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:03,240
This. 
This was huge for me. 

1215
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:06,920
Park Pass Reservation. 
Can now be made within the My 

1216
01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:09,160
Disney Experience. 
Yeah. 

1217
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:12,520
Why that linked out for so long 
to a website? 

1218
01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:15,360
Can you now see who they're made
for too in the app? 

1219
01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:17,920
I need to look. 
I haven't gotten that far, but 

1220
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:19,520
I'm just thrilled by the. 
Fact I am. 

1221
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:21,120
I'm thrilled you don't have to 
get. 

1222
01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:24,600
Login then again. 
If you're confused and think, 

1223
01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:27,480
oh, I was making them in the 
app, you were in the app, then 

1224
01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:30,120
you were clicking the button, 
then it was actually taking you 

1225
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:32,800
out of the app into a web 
browser, and then you had to 

1226
01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:34,840
login again. 
And then, yeah. 

1227
01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:39,480
So this is so much better, yeah.
Big win there and then and the 

1228
01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:42,720
magic behind the Polynesian 
Island Tower premieres June 10th

1229
01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:45,960
on Disney Plus. 
This came out of left field with

1230
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:48,120
some announcements for some 
things that are going to be on 

1231
01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:52,320
Disney Plus, but pretty cool to 
be able to see some of the 

1232
01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:54,400
behind the scenes that went into
the making of it. 

1233
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:59,680
Learn a little bit more about 
the the nature elements and 

1234
01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:03,800
everything that really inspired 
the Polynesian Island Tower. 

1235
01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:08,440
So be sure to tune TuneIn on 
June 10th for that. 

1236
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:12,280
I think that doesn't, I think 
we've hit most of the the, the 

1237
01:05:12,280 --> 01:05:15,120
news stories. 
Anything I've forgotten, ladies?

1238
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:17,920
Gentlemen, I just wanted to 
comment on what Amy said about 

1239
01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:22,960
the app and the reservations. 
So no is the answer to your 

1240
01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:26,440
question. 
I can see my reservations, but 

1241
01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:29,240
if I want to click the details 
it still takes me to the website

1242
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:30,520
to. 
Show me who's. 

1243
01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:33,960
On that, I'm sure it's coming. 
It's probably coming I. 

1244
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:38,840
Think I saw aren't we getting 
another season of Imagineering 

1245
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:42,120
or behind the attraction? 
Behind the attraction we are. 

1246
01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:44,440
Yes, yes, it's coming in June. 
June. 

1247
01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:46,400
Yep. 
Cool and and the the 

1248
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:48,880
Imagineering series is that 
they've been doing recently on 

1249
01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:51,240
YouTube are also over on Disney 
plus now. 

1250
01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:55,160
So a lot of, you know, cross 
promotion between Disney Plus 

1251
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:58,720
and what was on YouTube, but 
Imagineering really has elevated

1252
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:01,920
what they're showcasing across 
the board with all of these 

1253
01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:06,320
recent new rides experiences. 
What do we think about the 

1254
01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:09,680
rumors about the Super app? 
Have you guys heard about this? 

1255
01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:12,840
Yeah, I'm, I mean, indifferent. 
I don't know. 

1256
01:06:13,640 --> 01:06:16,320
Listen, I just want one thing, 
super, one thing. 

1257
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:19,840
Yeah, the app, that's going to 
be Disney Plus and the park. 

1258
01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:22,720
And Disney Cruise Line I. 
Just hope they call it Disney 

1259
01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:26,840
super app or something like. 
Here's all I want from that. 

1260
01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:29,360
You know how at the end of the 
year you get the YouTube, then 

1261
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:33,680
it says you watch DVC fans 7233 
times? 

1262
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:36,480
I just want to know how many 
times I wrote Haunted Mansion. 

1263
01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:40,720
That's all I want. 
I want a year in review for all 

1264
01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:42,320
the things I did for Disney. 
That would be. 

1265
01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:44,240
Cool. 
And badges. 

1266
01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:48,280
Give me some badges like Royal 
Caribbean does because you 

1267
01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:50,600
really want them. 
Amy loves a patch or a badge, 

1268
01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:53,040
that's for sure. 
Well, hey, thank you for 

1269
01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:55,240
suffering through this along 
with us folks. 

1270
01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:57,600
It was, it was a roller coaster 
of a show, haha. 

1271
01:06:57,600 --> 01:07:01,120
Rock and Roller Coaster is now 
open as of tomorrow again for 

1272
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,080
with The Muppets and it's going 
to be chaos, but that's going to

1273
01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:06,200
do it for this week's episode of
the DVC show. 

1274
01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:09,440
We hope you enjoyed it and go 
ride some rides, do all these 

1275
01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:11,720
fun new things. 
Have a great summer. 

1276
01:07:11,720 --> 01:07:14,440
But we will see you next Monday.
Happy Memorial Day. 

1277
01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:20,440
Give me your feathered penny. 
It's a week. 

1278
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,000
I was waiting for that joke and 
I blew it.
