Sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:46 Oh my God. I felt like I was going to die by getting hit by a propeller like in real life. Just seeing it on the map. Just seeing the airship on the map and knowing it was coming. Yeah. Ruined my enjoyment of all the other levels. So will today's boss be as fearsome as Bowser? There's no way of knowing.
Starting point is 00:02:03 We don't even know who the boss is yet or really how this works so i'm a little nervous but that's why i feel lucky that we are we're joined by a a favorite guest of ours and a uh a veteran of the city walk saga uh so glad she's here for this journey eva anderson is with us hey guys hello i'm really happy to be back hey and quest with you oh wonderful yes the stakes are higher if you if if you don't know uh the sector keeper's back you know about the sector keeper my friend um yes sure yeah yeah a good buddy of all of ours but it's not a it's not about him it's about the the level keeper uh who is his cousin His cousin The sector keeper has a cousin Who's been captured

Starting point is 00:03:13 The level keeper could be around any turn. It could be in this stage if we get to the end. But I have a feeling it will not be until there's as many episodes as possible. That seems right. Probably. But we don't know. Scott is holding out hope that this will all get wrapped up quickly of course it won't could be today but if i don't if i don't carry that spring in my step what's gonna take me yeah what did you mean by boss level uh for today's episode or when i was in a child well i know what bosses are in video games but how can a the how can

Starting point is 00:04:25 there was one boss of all five boroughs manhattan brooklyn queens staten island and the bronx and his name was goddy there are multiple bosses multiple families uh some might say controlling downtown disney okay okay i got it this is more of a gangs of new york situation yes do you think uh god he would think that downtown disney is the greatest fucking outdoor shopping center in the world i think he might think this part of it is the greatest fucking you know true well real paisan oh yeah i got some uh some genuine italian i feel like he would like Chelsea Piers or something. Like local.
Starting point is 00:05:07 South Street Seaport. I mean, it wouldn't be bad to have John Gotti's Jazz Kitchen down at Downtown Disney. That wouldn't be bad. Italiano. Yeah, right. A little more, not the New Orleans flavor, more of an Italiano.

Starting point is 00:06:51 she was and sick and then she got out but then she'd killed her mom so she had to go right to prison but now she loves it because she's like catching up on culture and just stuff in general oh yeah gracious friends huh maybe we should show this actor keeper the act as kind of a guide of what he can do in this scenario yeah i guess so oh no he's already killing us with secondhand vape it's really it's a slow death but it's happening uh and killing us with boredom i think because the first thing we have to do is the Mickey and Friends tram loading zone. Oh, thank God, yeah. Yeah, tram loading zone.
Starting point is 00:07:30 This is part of it, I guess. It is part of it. It is part of it, yeah. It is within the boundaries of the security checkpoint by the hotel and the Honda Odyssey, promotional Star Wars Galaxy's Edgeyssey that forms the other border of downtown disney um you can see labrea bakery from it yep uh-huh yes i don't take the tram guys
Starting point is 00:07:55 i walk every time i like to i like the walk from the parking structure when you walk by those little bushes it's nice it warms me up which is superior now thanks to the bridge did you have you gotten to go on the bridge no i haven't this time i well this time i parked in the downtown disney parking oh i see sure but um so and the last semester was like a year ago so i guess i missed this bridge it's only it's new yeah it's like weeks old it goes over the street yeah oh so you don't have to wait oh and it's a new path it's wonderful it is wonderful is the bridge part of this do we know uh we'll have to find out i have to find out when we check again later when vape smoke clears
Starting point is 00:08:34 um so well and you taking a walk means that you get to pass through downtown Disney, beautiful downtown Disney. Yeah. You see all of it. Um, any, any favorites outside of, uh, your stage? Um,
Starting point is 00:08:52 uh, fantastic Sephora. I think you've mentioned this before. It's one of the best ones I've ever been in. Sure. That's coming out. Um, I don't want to make this actor here mad,
Starting point is 00:08:59 but after I'd had a, a couple of drinks at the, in my sector, I, I bought a whole bunch of shit at Sephora, and I just had so much fun. I just went ham in there. Oh, great.
Starting point is 00:09:10 Sure. Oh, man. Got to get that parking validated. So that was great. And I also, I like looking at, I mean, I don't know. Like, the bowling alley is okay. People seem to really enjoy it. I'm much surprised by how many people are just
Starting point is 00:09:25 like hanging out in downtown disney like eating i i got there i went early i went at eight in the morning and people were just sitting having breakfast at earl of sandwich all over the place i find that i'll be walking around downtown disney and i'll just be thinking like these lucky people i bet they live around here oh i think they're all it makes me i think more like these people have been at the park for too long and they're just trying to do something else with their kids like i'm imagining like five minutes away living and they're like you know what let's go to earl of sandwich for breakfast you're jealous of that a little bit yeah i don't think there's anywhere nice to live by disneyland right anaheim hills is a little bit farther but that's supposedly pretty nice okay there's an anah there's a richer section i guess you'd call it of uh anaheim yeah because i think i talked to you
Starting point is 00:10:17 was it with you guys i that i did the disney marathon oh yeah with jess jordan and we um you you run around disneyland and it's very crimey yeah oh it's like part it goes to the neighborhood too yeah because there's only about two miles you can run through the parks maybe three and then they have to fill all this space it was a half marathon but there was like 10 miles through just downtown anaheim and it was yeah bleak yeah oh right that's fair i mean i our beloved buena park is not maybe the best area to live oh man i one time when i was in college my boyfriend and i at the time this is bad guys we took acid and at knott's berry farm and then we stayed overnight in a hotel we could walk to a motel, which turned out to be a very,
Starting point is 00:11:06 very bad place, especially on drugs. But there was a guy, it was just, it was a terrible place. And at one point, my boyfriend, Travis peeked out on the balcony and there was a guy just holding an unplugged phone,
Starting point is 00:11:19 like a hotel phone, having a conversation on it, like doing a deal, but there wasn't, it wasn't connected to anything. And he was like, Hey, Oh, excuse me, a man just walked by and I'll ask him this question. And he turned to Travis and was like, excuse me.
Starting point is 00:11:32 And Travis just like slammed the door and locked it. He was just trying to get in on a scheme on an unplugged phone. It was terrifying. So that's what's around Knott's Berry Farm. Oh, no. Wow. If only the the snoopy tuck-in was an option for you guys on acid we didn't even think about it that would
Starting point is 00:11:50 have been crazy it was there yet i don't think you could have we could have just we should have just stayed at that hotel i don't know what we were thinking we could not stay from hotel was clearly the mood more interesting than anything that happened to me in four years of college really i taking acid at knots very far witness an insane man have a phone call to no one is yeah i mean also rides on acid are not good better is it all more stressful yeah you you can smell all the oil and like and then like it'll go backwards and kind of leave you where you were your soul stays at the bottom and you go up have i said this on the podcast before about how when i'm a sign that i've i have not been like uh i've been pretty off weed for a while and part of it was because i when i was watching a lot of movies and realizing i was
Starting point is 00:12:40 like seeing through to how miserable the set must have been like i was i was like making me flash past the film and the fun story that's being told to just like i'm just seeing the cruddiness and the faking and the general depression of long film shoot hours yeah and i'm choosing to do this to myself to ruin movies watching like uh i just i watched beyond the sea that kevin spacey movie and i was like man they had to like choreograph this whole number where he's like being bobby darren and people had to like learn this dance 21 year old bobby darren 21 year old bobby darren with his dyed hair it's like he's probably harassing everyone on set and so and like uh uh did he direct it too oh yeah
Starting point is 00:13:24 and he wrote it there's a yeah. And he wrote it. There's a child. Have you not seen it? I've seen it. I made you watch it, right? He texted me. Or were you, was I seeing scenes you were posting on Instagram or vice versa? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Cause there's the kid version of himself. I was like, Bobby, tell him all about this. Oh yeah. He speaks to his child version. And doesn't he do a dance number with his child version? Yes. Oh no. And you watch that and then you realize he's stupid which is like that's a whole new level when you know kevin spacey is
Starting point is 00:13:50 stupid like he's not smart he's dumb and he's bad and he's like a bad person who's dumb he really terrible taste i don't know how like i mean we could this i could do it all, Kevin Spacey novelties podcast. But that, Bolly on the Sea in general, when he sings mind games in the 9-11 memorial. You introduced me to that and I watch it like once a year. Yay. We used to watch it in the Comedy Bang Bang Writers Room. Oh, wow. Yeah, because of you. It was like a favorite.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Oh, I'm so glad i found out about it from the conan writers room because they told a story where he uh apparently was like uh like i want to sing uh i'd like to sing lady madonna and they said well that's a mccartney song and like oh god damn it yeah well then i don't know bluebird blackbird then um just named another mccartney like it was basically had no it was an all john lennon tribute show and he had no it was an all john lennon tribute show and he had no idea what was a john lennon song what was a bonkers i like when he has a that he's wearing that weird you should post this link he's wearing a weird button-up shirt like like slacks like work slacks yeah yeah just like my dad and he start comes out and says
Starting point is 00:15:01 he's really pissed off and then he sings mind games with a full orchestra and he keeps jumping up and down like hitting all the oh we all have to do what we can to restore new york city and that includes your host and then he jumps and that's the reveal that he's gonna sing i i could really yeah that's like a that's like twice a year at least for me and then when he sings a black eyed peas parody at a british sports awards and it's supposed to be one of those openings where he's like going around the backstage and like fixing things up and fixing this guy's tie and he takes a basketball and throws it in a hoop and he misses did i tell you that in high school i was in love with him what i was like deeply crushing out on him we won't say who it is but jason and i
Starting point is 00:15:47 have a good friend who is when i said like who's your number one guy your crush in hollywood she was like kevin spacey oh my god recently no year three years ago okay so our four times now more than ever no but i like i watched every single movie he was in up to because this all was like the year of usual suspects and swimming with sharks oh yeah and seven which is all one year and i got hugely crushed out on him and i watched every movie he had ever been into that point wow i got and it was like pre-internet so i had to like find these things i had to rent them i watched um yeah i watched rocket gibraltar uh i watched consenting adults to the erotic thriller he's in with kevin klein
Starting point is 00:16:31 where he swaps and then murders someone what i watched i mean he's in one scene in working girl which i watched he's in uh uh oh man you ever see him accepting his MTV Movie Award for Seven? Oh, I didn't have that recorded as a clip on my computer at all. Whoa, whoa. He's wearing a Kangol hat. Oh, God, yes, he was. He's wearing a cool vest and sunglasses he doesn't take off at the podium. So cool. I know.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Didn't he have a two-season procedural show? Yes, it was called, um wait he was a bad guy i have not heard about that prophet yeah yeah and he was the bad guy on profit i couldn't get a i couldn't get a hold of that one yeah but he's on dvd now you see it every now and then like walking through a best buy yeah oh he's the bad guy in see no evil hear no evil with uh is he really yeah yes he is like don't are you really questioning me no i'm not no i'm sure yeah no that's surprise that's me being delighted yeah he's like a he's like a kind of a boris and natasha sort of uh duo he's got a british accent
Starting point is 00:17:36 and a little pencil thin mustache does he count as theme park entertainment now enough that we could do an episode all about kevin spacey the voice is he's in bugs life right yeah he doesn't do it in um the show in it's tough to be a bug okay maybe andrew stanton does the voice i think you should do a podcast episode about kevin spacey novelties it's enough like the green goblin and stuff like it's i think he's theme parky enough at this point he did you see the recent video of him playing labamba in the streets with a spanish band no should we cancel plans and just do this the characters the episode right now it feels like we need a lot of prep for this yeah i think we yes yeah the most delightful prep we could ever do i was sad i never could see him in uh um guys and dolls what yeah he was in broadway and guys and dolls was he sky or nathan i think he was nathan he sued me sue me yeah he couldn't be sky peter no yeah it was
Starting point is 00:18:35 like it was right before the window it was peter gallagher and nathan lane or right after him okay but before that he was in yeah i just want to show you a shot from the video. Oh, man. Joyously holding up an acoustic guitar. In the way only non-guitar players hold guitars. On the day one of his court cases was dismissed, I think. Not one of the days when one of his accusers ended up dead, which is also something that has happened. Are we allowed to laugh about him when things like that are happening?
Starting point is 00:19:02 He's a vile creature. Yeah. I'll check out the second Gate episode on let me be frank uh even that it's all right we're doing it we're doing it press pot you'll come back uh if you're down and we'll let's let's let's talk oh man i i used to have a shrine like that my friend made for me as a joke but i kept it like until like a year ago it was like a wooden shrine with his photo on it wow oh man i was so confused you guys i was really confused this is where you're i know and then for all that to happen like what that does to your psyche i mean k-pax started the slide and i was like oh he's done i remember being i saw k-pax opening weekend because everyone
Starting point is 00:19:41 like spacey fever with usual suspects and american beauty yeah everyone was jacked he burned all his american beauty goodwill making beyond the sea uh-huh america could not have cared less like and also what's that one with hayley joel osment where it's about pay it pay it yeah yeah where he like whips his shirt open and shows like his his burn scars to helen Hunt if you like because it's he does this you would love
Starting point is 00:20:07 okay is that she like there's something up with her in that too or she's just like heavily tan she's heavily tan he does a monologue
Starting point is 00:20:13 about his stepdad lighting him on fire which is it's gonna go in the novelties episode oh my god and I thought why would water
Starting point is 00:20:20 smell so bad why would water smell so bad oh my god and I looked up and he was holding a red Water smells so bad. Why would water smell so bad? And I looked up and he was holding a red gas can. And then he lit a match.
Starting point is 00:20:36 So the Mickey and Friends triumvirating area. This is coming up. We will do this. We will do this. I can't wait for that episode. It's 2001. Oh boy. Mickey and Friends. We will do this. We will do this. All right. I can't wait for that episode. Okay. 2001. Oh, boy. Nikki and Fred.
Starting point is 00:20:47 We're having fun. Nikki and Fred. I'm just going to be staring out the window thinking about that episode the whole time. We've already talked about the garage. And we're going to talk about the tram loading. This is where the payoff is. This is where the tram lets you off. Here's my problem with talking about it.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Is that I sort of have to reveal a little bit about my feelings on the new parking structure, because the parking structure shows a better way to do certain things. The parking structure is outside of the confines. We're not until there's permission given. We can't go assuming we can do the parking structure. All right, fair. Let me then hypothesize of a better way to make it so that it's not just this big mass of people
Starting point is 00:21:27 and there's a little bit of uncertainty of who's going to get on the tram. Because when there's that big group at the end of the night, you're fighting with teens, you're fighting with families. Just hoof it, man. Yeah, which is what we do a lot of the time. But if I'm reviewing this experience. If you're going to kid with you, then you have to go on the tram. Single file rows. That's all i'm gonna say
Starting point is 00:21:47 isn't that how you board the tram at universal isn't that like a little more clear who's getting on the tram tour train yeah there's stars and yeah it's like a ride it's a single file line and they just load you in yeah yeah that mass where you feel like you get you got cheated like i should have been first but somebody kind of veered in front of me some pushy mom you know yeah yeah it's just a little because you see those groups and it's just it's just very intimidating it doesn't it doesn't look good it looks like just a big mop and it's so yeah when you're leaving the park and you see all that like oh god all right we got like another mile to go then i guess we gotta walk yeah um yeah i was my only note for this thing is i'm bummed when i have to be there yes leaving if i arrive then i'm happy for all the
Starting point is 00:22:37 fun that's in store but like i yeah i don't wait to leave in that area very often no i always think the only thing that makes me think it's, do I like La Brea Bakery? We weren't sure either. Yeah, I'm like looking at it. I'm like, do I want that? Do I want to just go in the park and get something? Yeah. We said it's fine.
Starting point is 00:22:57 It's fine. We declared do a drinking game with this podcast series when we call things fine. Fine. Okay. All right. Yeah. It's fine. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:23:04 I don't think the tram is fine. No all right yeah it's fine it's fine i don't think the tram is fine i think it's bad yeah i yeah well again i don't want to talk about the other side of the tram but the other is a little better there's rows it's a rose there are rows now so i'm not i'm pro that side this side is chaos but this side is chaos. It's a little bit chaos. I like all the plants. I'm always in favor of more plants. More plants for sure. Yeah. It's just mentally soothing.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Water features and plants help keep people from going insane in these massive crowded spaces. I think that's very true. That's nice. So there's that. Water features and plants. Great. Is that it? California churro cart. California churro cart. churro cart i got a rose gold churro huh oh interesting lightly strawberry flavored
Starting point is 00:23:52 what do you think a little um you know it's warm which is always a plus for a pastry i feel like i've i i don't have a strong opinion on churros one way or the other. I think if I had a fresh one out of the oil, I think it would be incredible. But usually they're just sitting there all day and they always taste a little stale. Even if they're the best churro. Even the best churro in the world is just fine. Inherent fine. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:24:21 I'm sorry. No, it's good. No, keep it. It's fine. This is also, I i think the start of like a weird feature of downtown disney these little kiosks of like yeah well it's not a disney churro and it's not a disney hot dog it's a diggity dog it's a diggity dog it's a lady trying to sell you disney vacation club oh yeah we're here too should we be talking about that the vacation there is a kiosk yeah
Starting point is 00:24:45 yeah for vacation did you did anyone here belong to the vacation club i did how was it are you did you i mean you guys were like a hardcore disney family huh uh yeah we i mean we were in it from like 95 to 2000 and i always joke well that was the first thing going into divorce that was the first thing to fund the lawyer uh uh but we i mean we had a lot of fun so it did let us go i think we went a handful of times there was a run in there where we we went every summer right we went every year and go for like two weeks only one time did we go for two weeks okay and that is that was a trip like that was like not leaving disney world for two weeks i mean we went to universal we went to sea world like yeah we broke it up a little bit all theme
Starting point is 00:25:36 park i dated a theme park guy who was doing a job at orlando last time i was at orlando this was more than 10 years ago but um hi. I'm Ryan Reynolds and I have a list of things I like to have on set. It's just little things like two freshly cracked eggs scrambled with crispy hash brown, sausage crumble, and creamy chipotle sauce from Tim Hortons. From my rider to Tim's menu, try my new scrambled eggs

Starting point is 00:26:59 in the 90s it just was like oh this makes financial sense if you're gonna go yeah even up like every other year and because you could also one thing we would do is we would get an annual like i was a disney world annual pass holder for a little while because like well if we come back next year in less than 12 months we don't have to buy tickets again they have a pretty sweet annual pass deal right now for socal residents i was eyeing it i was like that looks good the six hundred dollar one no it's like 20 bucks a month is that it really that's what it said for socal i'm i'm in pack pass flux at the moment and i'm needing to decide my next situation look into this one i almost bought one when i was there
Starting point is 00:27:43 it was low price but then i just bought the day ticket which is stupid they are i keep getting hotel offers for disneyland and they're not super they're still not cheap they're very expensive still it's still very expensive but like they're scrambling because they uh there's plenty of great stuff about galaxy's edge but they set their expectations too high so on the spreadsheets they did not meet their financial goal or their guest number goal yeah because they set it too high so now they're like oh what do we do and spend too much money on the honda elite so that's sitting on yes yeah yeah i got an email today from The Disney Vacation Club person I met with a few months ago
Starting point is 00:28:28 Oh yeah because you sat through a seminar I sat through a full seminar To get four free fast passes And a Diet Coke He willingly went and sat through a presentation To get fast passes? Yeah I got four fast passes Keep in mind Mike only goes on all these rides once a week
Starting point is 00:28:43 It's a rare opportunity to get to go on Indiana Jones. I also wanted to know. You get snacks and you get to see sample hotel rooms. That's fine. And I'm a theme park journalist, so I knew this was part of my job. I mean, I want to go to DisneySea and I want to go to Hong Kong and stuff. It makes, I mean, makes sense it makes sense to do it if you're going to take like high level hotel vacations every year right but they had then you have to go to a disney
Starting point is 00:29:13 property you don't they they have partners there's a partners you learned a lot during i don't want to bore everyone the other thing is that they don't really push there's an aftermarket so you can buy people's points because it is a timeshare so disney can only regulate it so much there's federal timeshare laws okay so you can go to third-party point sellers and buy points to use to stay at a disney property for cheaper than you would booking directly there's a whole secret sort of thing they don't like to tell you to about it where it's like Disney will buy it back. They have a right of first refusal, essentially,
Starting point is 00:29:50 on your property. If you are selling it back, if you want to get out of it, you have to offer it to Disney first. Right. They won't necessarily take it. It's like a first look deal. Yes.
Starting point is 00:29:58 People talk about this on your Facebook group. Shout out to the Facebook group. Yeah. Yeah. But it's like the dues dues are like 28 000 you have to pay like 28 000 or something or maybe 20 000 and then like no no for like one time fee and then yearly like 800 you buy the points it's like yes so it's like i'm so stressed out just hearing in 20 years it's like a good deal if you keep it. Oh my God. Nothing you can describe that way can be good.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Well, it's the idea being like it is an investment. It's essentially a vacation home that you pass down through your family. Right. And everyone gets a home resort. Yes. Now that's how they're starting to screw people. It's like your home resort, if you didn't get in before a certain date, if you want to stay at the newer ones, that has to you your home resort if you didn't get in before a certain date if you want to stay at the newer ones that has to be your home resort you can't use points for it necessarily
Starting point is 00:30:52 yeah but that or some perks it's very guys i'm joining i'm gonna do it you didn't even need just give it to me i have the email of the gentleman i talked to so man i get the dvds they said how long were you occupied by this presentation hour and 15 minutes here's here's the thing that is my one of my biggest mistakes with the presentation at the end he goes do you need a ride anywhere and i said what do you mean and he's like like back to the parks or to a hotel and i was like oh no no i'm good i go well do people get rides places he goes yeah we can give you a ride anywhere you want i go well where does the where does it go where do i because it's over by the disneyland hotel and he's like yeah just like in
Starting point is 00:31:35 the back the back area and i should have i didn't know i don't know why i screwed up cart i think i would have been able to take a golf cart You could have gone backstage yeah I screwed up I'll take it You can't take the golf cart ride Until 20 years from now And Disney can buy it back from you Alright so Jason and I will go down You'll go do the presentation
Starting point is 00:31:56 You know you can come along you can be my guest That's a good point We don't even have to go that far I'd like to have a narrative So I'd have a character going in You could just be friend That's a good point. I'll be your guest. That was my big brother. We don't even have to go that far. We don't have to go that far, but that's fine. Oh, no, I like to have a narrative, so I have a character going in. You could just be friend. I love it. I think it's better for my motivation if you play my big brother, and we can make a joke
Starting point is 00:32:14 about how tall you are. Guys, just be married. It's okay. Be married. All right, fine. Married and proud. Pamphlets. Okay, so I-
Starting point is 00:32:23 Religious. Wait, we should explain this. Okay. Okay, so I... Religious... Wait, we should explain this. Okay. If you have not been to Downtown Disney, then why are you... How are you getting through any of this? And second of all, there is an area that's pretty, like,
Starting point is 00:32:35 undecorated that's just, like, ivy, essentially. And one of the only things that's there, besides the sporadic treat cart, is just a table and chairs where Jehovah's Witnesses, usually, but I think there are some others, a table and chairs where jehovah's witnesses usually but i think there are some others but we tend to see jehovah's witnesses passing out pamphlets it's very odd to see in in a disney environment yes yeah you can see the park from the table
Starting point is 00:32:58 where they are yeah yeah yeah you're like very close by then. Yeah. And just the New Testament, not full Bibles, usually book copies of the New Testament. And like pretty thin booklets. Yeah. And such that you can take on the go and that, you know, door to door people can take on the go. Also, too, when I walked up, it was two ladies in very, very like overdressed, not overdressed, but like religious like religious clothing long sleeves big skirts umbrellas to shield themselves from the sun it's it's hot it was hot outside yes yeah yeah and they just sit there and pan out what i got which is a copy of the watchtower announcing jehovah's kingdom it's the uh the magazine of the church of jesus christ latter
Starting point is 00:33:44 day saints okay or it's very thin what you're looking at this just takes me back to church like Jehovah's Kingdom. It's the magazine of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Okay. It's very thin, what you're looking at. This takes me back to church, like the thin-ass bulletins that I would grab on the way out. They're different. The Latter-day Saints is Mormons. This is Jehovah's Witnesses. I see.
Starting point is 00:33:56 Anyway, I'll just describe this magazine. I read all of it when I was eating at my restaurant in the sector. Wow, you really did it all on top of each other i did um so the the cover just says is this life all there is and it's a man standing in a graveyard and then the table of contents is the sad reality of death the search for a long life we are designed to live why do we grow old and die conquering the enemy death dot dot dot how how can you have more than this life making the most of life today what hope for the dead so it's and then the sad reality of death is just like this is just a paragraph imagine yourself watching a
Starting point is 00:34:37 video about a celebrity perhaps a famous musician who you admire it starts with scene of her scenes of her childhood her music, and her endless practice. Then you see her performing in concerts, traveling far and wide, becoming an international celebrity. Before long come images of her golden years,
Starting point is 00:34:52 and finally as the video ends, she dies. And so it's just about how everyone dies. Oh my god. This, by the way, is steps away from a store where you can buy
Starting point is 00:35:03 mini merchandise that says rock the dots. She's, you know, she's clad in polka dots. You can read about the death of a hypothetical pop star from your feet away. The anxiety of death in this thing is wild. It's like the death is our enemy.
Starting point is 00:35:21 We cannot, we can't not die. And we're gonna get,'re gonna we sure suffer and die this is why this is a hell of a way for me to find out in the middle of a we're definitely gonna die series yeah i know a man who rocked dots two dots in his hand for our sins you'd be better at this table than the ladies yeah tie it into the environment yeah so i looked into this a little and there's really not a lot online i reached out to a reporter friend and and said do you know anything about do you know why this is here and he's like no that's a good i've never looked into
Starting point is 00:35:57 that but all i could find was people complaining about it on reddit i thought i'd find like an oc register article but the it seems to be because they see every now and then they're at city walk too and i think it is and and i think the city of anaheim ruled they can be there and i think it has to deal with public private spaces privately owned property that still acts as a public area like a mall or something like that yeah i've seen street performers at downtown disney i once saw a guy playing a wild uh electric hammer dulcimer in the middle of uh downtown disney and i remind me what a dulcimer is it's like a it's like a bunch of strings it's
Starting point is 00:36:36 almost like a zither or something but you hit it with a hammer okay it's like a old school yeah instrument and he had like he had cds for sale and stuff yeah so i think as long as you fill out the proper application and i don't know if you have to pay disney like so they can't reject because that was my question where it's like what disney wants to be so uh neutral on everything right but is it like just because they have open submissions for you to sell or street perform that they have to allow religious i think they can restrict content a little in terms of family appropriateness but i am wondering like where the um religious freedom like constitutionally they can because
Starting point is 00:37:18 there's no scientologist right and there's no like Hare Krishna No Falun Gong Yeah Falun Gong Yeah Oh man No like really weird Like crazy graphic Bloody signs
Starting point is 00:37:31 That make me mad When I see them And they also They do that The dance show is them I went to it Oh you Oh right
Starting point is 00:37:38 Shen Yun Shen Yun Oh yes One of our parent companies Yeah Shen Yun And they also They also They publish the epoch
Starting point is 00:37:45 times which is the sells more ads for donald trump on facebook than any other organization because they think that trump will get rid of the chinese government or help them be free of uh the chinese government which he doesn't care but if you go to the show really quick there's dancing and then all of a sudden they come out and lecture you about falun gong and then they do a dance number about a girl whose eyes gets gouged out by the government and then all of a sudden they come out and lecture you about falun gong and then they do a dance number about a girl whose eyes gets gouged out by the government and then eventually later in the show they do a number about like people looking at their phones and two guys are looking at their phones and they start holding hands they become gay from their phones from technology there's also an opera singer who comes out and sings a whole like opera song that's translated about how technology rots the soul.
Starting point is 00:38:26 And then the billboards just make it look like there's like one, one person jumping. This is a lot more interesting. I went with John Daly and Jason Willner. Like, and the audience was just like at the Dorothy channel pavilion, all just confused old people that did not know what was, it was so weird and
Starting point is 00:38:45 yeah and the thing at the end is like it's they're all gay from their phones and then a giant wave with karl marx's face comes up and destroys the earth like oh my drowns them all what there's a giant like video screen behind them that they claim to have patented this technology and it just crashes up. It's a tidal wave and it washes the earth clean. A lot happened in 5,000 years of civilization. Yeah. Their motto. If this is an innovative screen, I feel like we need to review it.
Starting point is 00:39:20 It counts. Theme parks. Anyway, you guys should go to Shenyang. Or maybe not. Don't go because they uh they're crazy maybe it's a cult tad afraid yes i'll do it next time they come through you should see it and then the next episode is you guys are you trying to convince us to join their vacation club there's always bang of america flags your visa for buying ke Spacey and Shen Yun material in one week. I bought these coasters that said, I love Shen Yun.
Starting point is 00:39:52 And my fiance was like, what the fuck is, what are you doing? I came up with them. He's like, why do you have this? You're being tracked now. I know where those things are going. There's three companies or four maybe doing a shan yan show at any time somewhere on earth wow really and the chinese government follows them around and like slashes their tires on their vans oh my it's crazy you can see that happen if you waited around
Starting point is 00:40:16 yeah oh they get harassed whoa geez okay okay sorry so disney well disney's not gonna allow that because disney has business with China to do. Yeah, yeah. So, they aren't going to allow it. Well, I think it's interesting, too, that part of the Jehovah's Witness thing is you don't have birthdays. You don't get holidays. If you knew a Jehovah's Witness growing up, they don't celebrate their birthday.
Starting point is 00:40:39 They don't do celebrations. Prince didn't believe in birthdays. Yeah. Oh. But I've seen... Wait, before he got religious though i've seen the band lead a happy birthday to him not after though not by like 95 or whatever so but then you're not allowed so they don't get you know you can't trick-or-treat at their house
Starting point is 00:40:54 on halloween all that shit but are they allowed to go to disneyland it's a good question i don't know outside of it has anyone ever walked out of disney met those ladies, and gone like, well, that's it for me. Like, this is my new thing now. Kids, we're Jehovah's Witnesses now. It's only the line at Space Mountain had been shorter. That's like the Comic-Con people that protest outside of like, no false idols. And you're like, is there one single person that like walked out of Comic-Con and went, whoa, you're right. And then like they were just.
Starting point is 00:41:23 Jesus, the original Batman. Yes. They're right and then like they were just the original batman yeah yes he is like bruce wayne many comic characters came back from the dead his parents were murdered in front of him um yikes oh the other thing i i read about the the jehovah's witnesses at the table they're not allowed to approach people or talk to people unless you approach them first oh I talked to them yes
Starting point is 00:41:48 so you were allowed yes how'd it go how'd they seem they were nice I talked to my I think her name was Bethany
Starting point is 00:41:55 and I asked her what her name was and I said how's it going shout out to Bethany I was like can I have this she's like
Starting point is 00:42:00 oh yes and tell me if you have any questions and we're just spreading the word and I was like cool there's one interesting thing in this death magazine um that if you go to jw.org they'll come to your house and give you a bible study you can like did you arrange for that right now and here come on in bethany they're here oh would that be a surprise it would be so fun if they just
Starting point is 00:42:27 showed up right now honestly i would be delighted by that yeah then we just that's an hour of the bible study get them on my get the get three other mics out yeah so just so you know if you are looking around i also texted scott i was like i can't find these pamphlets Oh yeah That was fun I was like This is gonna be a fun episode Even making a point Of finding the pamphlets I got a little book More of a tiny little book
Starting point is 00:42:54 Called The Secret of Family Happiness You got a bookmark in it I got two bookmarks in it With some passages I want to read It is from 1996 It is a family that looks Disturbingly similar to my own uh you know members genders and uh floral dress button dresses um it's so this is a bit of
Starting point is 00:43:17 a it's a bit of a flashback for me uh let me see what i wanted to mark it's been the caretaker um i well i i didn't have time to read the whole thing there's a lot of page this is 185 pages i just skimmed through it to find the word sex and i found it a couple of times um god's view of sex um let's see uh the law frankly mentioned a number of sexual matters uh including menstruation seminal emissions fornication adultery homosexuality incest and bestiality those last three of course all fit together homosexuality incest and bestia pretty much the same thing yeah pretty much that's a real 1996 religious yeah yeah it's been crazy looking back don't you guys think it's odd how like now that we now that the slippery slope has happened and we allowed gay marriage just how many of our friends are married to the donkeys and yeah like electric fans
Starting point is 00:44:18 yeah it's just it's a whole other world we're living in um i was then curious about the the one that i guess i know the word fornication but i was never sure the exact definition and elsewhere in the book um i looked at the like amazon listing of this that pulled out some notable quotes and they say uh in the eyes of jehovah god living together consensually without the benefit of marriage is fornication. So we're in a house of fornication as we speak. Uh-oh.
Starting point is 00:44:50 Mike. Whoops. I know she's, I know your girlfriend's coming on tomorrow, but maybe you should consider marrying her before then. Yes. Before the episode.
Starting point is 00:44:58 Maybe on the episode. Yes, that's fair. Plus you've got that horned up dog of yours. Oh, bestiality. That's true. The dog humps my leg, and that is I am sinning because I'm allowing it. I think so.
Starting point is 00:45:13 That's shameful. I don't check Deuteronomy to be sure. Because you have a messenger. There's a prince poster looking at us. In front, there's always a witness staring at the dog humping your leg. And he's a Jehovah's Witness. And it's a room of false idols. Yes.
Starting point is 00:45:30 Batman, Leonardo. Leonardo. The hatbox ghost. The hatbox ghost. That cookie, the dog, the chef from Hong Kong. Yeah, cookie from Hong Kong. The hatbox ghosts are Dr.j eckelberg uh looking down on us judging went over my head with that one uh the eyes and the great cats me oh okay
Starting point is 00:45:52 maybe if you did a lot i think you should do a lot of reading of that book and read another book called the secret oh okay i was hoping when you said religious pamphlets that would be jack chick pamphlets do you guys remember jack chick pamphlets no sure oh there are these little comic books that this lunatic made by himself for like 40 years he died recently but they're like little rectangular pamphlets and he's got his own weird take on everything and he would update them like he would you know he did one on how harry potter's a warlock. But they're just crazy. They'll just be a...
Starting point is 00:46:26 There's a really good one where it's like a rock band that signs a contract with Satan. And then he's like, I've got a gift for you guys now. Some AIDS. And so he gives them AIDS and then they... Yeah, there he is. He never really evolved though past the EC horror horror like style of art yeah he always drew
Starting point is 00:46:46 he drew them them the same forever but uh here's one just of the devil saying you were wrong you didn't accept the lord jesus christ as your personal savior yeah he it's always this like scary devil i i one time in college bought the full collection it was like 20 and i had like 150 chick comics and they were all the same and they immediately got really boring but i was at the albuquerque international sunport which they call the airport uh and i found one underneath a chair and i got really excited and i read the whole thing and i put it back where i found it and i was like oh some kid's gonna find this and it's gonna blow their mind like i did when i was 14 and found one i was like what the fuck the fuck is this? And I showed all my friends.
Starting point is 00:47:25 I used to find them every now and then and laugh. They're so fun. They're so fun. But then I think my little brother, like one of his classmates was like passing them out at school sincerely. And he was like, what? What are you doing? Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Yeah. I guess they could make you Christian or something, which would be bad. Anyway, that's what I was hoping for. But instead I got this death obsessed watchtower i have one more little passage which is uh it's a uh it's basically about how if you are a single parent a widow or a divorcee that you should not partake in uh sexual activities oh my god you should not experience the joy of sex if you've lost a spouse or gotten a divorce. Not for
Starting point is 00:48:10 you. And it gives you a guide of how to get through that. And this isn't even a quote from the Bible. It's just, a Christian man said who? It could be somebody who bailed on it the next year or killed themselves. Trevor said.
Starting point is 00:48:26 Sexual urges are very strong, but you can control them. When a thought comes in your mind, you must not dwell on it. You have to get rid of it. It also helps to think of your child. Oh, that's good. Oh my God. So the next time you're sad about your divorce and trying to have sex with somebody, think of your child instead.
Starting point is 00:48:40 Don't cross those wires. Yeah, I know. Yes. What a horrible moment there you're creating also if you were trying to deaden your appetite for food would you read magazines featuring pictures of delicious foods or would you associate with people who constantly talked about food hardly the same is true concerning fleshly desires so you don't look at porn yeah yeah i guess so just like sports illustrated swimsuit edition don't watch the
Starting point is 00:49:06 victoria's secret fashion show those delicious shows don't watch them watch oh scott hey no stay away from your appetite how would you watch that delicious show you are everything you are describing is pretty much as a 12 yearyear-old Christian. This is my... That was all porn to me. The most innocent. Your epic rewatch of Baywatch that's going on right now. Do you think there's something in the back of your mind that's like, I'm getting away with it finally?
Starting point is 00:49:37 Like, this is my Christian rebellion? Yeah, a little bit. At last. Well, there's still morality lessons within it okay um all that way no they deter don't swim between the red flags yeah i had very lax parents and probably like full access to pornography or whatever and i spent all that time watching like the glenn gary glenn ross scenes with kevin spacey and like this is my guy right here i don't know maybe maybe he should have chosen porn the ref his part where he destroys
Starting point is 00:50:13 the christmas tree and the ref with the fire poker because judy davis is telling the story wrong and everyone's fighting somebody wasted like hours of my life it's so weird we lined up all of your ex-boyfriends are they all sort of like spacey types no that's too bad if only like the captain of the all the teams wow really i was like lacrosse and soccer we didn't have football i went to a hippie school but i was dating nico donkers the captain of the teams and i was lecturing him about kevin spacey movies oh my gosh hustle low donkers you gotta get caught up on the show you gotta get caught up on profit he ended up living on a tree platform what a tree platform yeah yeah like in santa cruz people live in the
Starting point is 00:51:07 trees yeah he was like living on a tree platform and i was like are you protecting the trees like no it's just a tree behind a apartment i rent it's not even a tree house it's a tree platform will you join me will you be mrs o'don on the platform. No, Nicko was his first name. Oh, I thought it was Nick O'Donker. Yeah, that's what I thought it was too. No. Nicko. I'm disappointed by that.
Starting point is 00:51:33 How do you spell it? Is it N-I-C-K-O? N-I-C-H-O. Oh. Okay. Oh, man. Not Nico? Nicko.
Starting point is 00:51:39 Nicko. Interesting. Nice guy. Sure. He has no social media footprint, so I can't find out what happened to him anymore. Oh. Unless this Nice guy. Sure. He has no social media footprint, so I can't find out what happened to him anymore. Oh, unless this somehow brings him out. Yeah, Niko, text me.
Starting point is 00:51:53 Niko, when I thought it was Niko Donkers, captain of all the teams. That was one of my favorite phrases. That's a false idol right there. He sounds like a superhero. Come on, dunkers. I saw a dunker. Pick up the face.
Starting point is 00:52:10 So, religious pamphlets. And once armed with religious pamphlets, and once you have a pure heart, you can make your way to have some pretty good Italian food. Oh, yeah. At, we're all thrilled. Is it Naples? good italian food oh yeah um apps we're all thrilled naples naples so it's yeah naples is the is the ristorante is it new it's recently redone because you guys usually go to ovo bar
Starting point is 00:52:35 right yeah which i'm sorry sector keeper yeah yeah but it's closer and seems like bet like a better selection of stuff yeah well i don't think there was as much what did did they even have the is the bar is the walk-up bar new or has that always been there and i just haven't i was just really impressed by their their selection of like local they had to go out of green bar distillery spirits which is a local distillery make her a fine fine slow hand whiskey the only la whiskey and it's pretty good really and yeah and i was just like the selection in general i i i got a uh trio of italian mules like uh oh yeah yeah it was great it was like they they had like different types of amaro in them and they were
Starting point is 00:53:19 just like very interesting um and little tiny little copper teeny mugs and uh sounds great i loved it yeah there was a i think this is what the bar looked like before and it was just like not as striking you might say this is tiny picture i'm sorry uh-huh like it's like inviting you could just like pull up a to that our night before galaxy's edge you were we were all hanging out out there that was a very chill open air this is upsetting this is like one of the i would say better than fine places i had a blast and i just got a little minestrone soup and a shrimp caesar salad but they were both great and my trio of mules was just so charming it was truly like the kind of drink you get inside at disney park yeah that's like fun and there's variety yeah i liked my waitress she was sweet and uh i just had
Starting point is 00:54:13 a i read my watchtower and i just chilled out yeah got some work done i like the pizzas my family has eaten the pizzas there a lot i especially like they have the little pepperonis that like crisp when they go right that's a great idea if you look up um hashtag pepperoni cups on instagram you can find people posting pictures of different pizzas that have the little pepperonis it's like a whole thing um i should have got that i think farley elliott told me about that i was like describing it to him he's like yeah pepperoni cups look up the hashtag pepperoni cups um but yeah the pizza's good um there's a side of the restaurant that is just pizzas and salads which is a pretty quick in and out meal uh if you're if you're like waiting on if you're if you're you got a fast pass coming up or something but that's not napolini
Starting point is 00:55:01 i think well it's the divide napolini is the quick service one okay so really this is three restaurants there's sit down naples there's just pizza and salads naples which i think the bar is part of yes i think so yeah maybe that's for the only food you can get at the bar um and i've done the sit down and the sit down's fine but it's like you're you're uh pretty quick in and out with pretty quality food at the outdoor one yeah and then napolini is the quick where you're doing pizzas to go two pizzas yes i bought two pizzas that's cool to validate parking you can also get beer and wine at the quick service yes oh yeah i didn't realize that yes and hard seltzer oh these are good tips i
Starting point is 00:55:41 yeah i agree this this is the most Like It sounds This doesn't sound Like a compliment To call it functional But for sure It's like You're right It's not that far

Starting point is 00:57:21 Weird. From new Mary Poppins. A couple years ago i did this thing where there's this immersive theater company that had a subscription i've talked i haven't talked about this on the podcast but i bought into the subscription where they were doing a play in my life for eight months and and eight or nine months before they and you didn't know when they would show up they'd show or they would like warn me but they kept calling me down to like have experiences at like

Starting point is 01:05:19 title is that just like very rich but like all gratin is already incredibly rich right this is already approaching a thousand calories well it's like you spent all this time getting into your little dress and you ate your little packaged meals and then you lost to like uh jason bateman because he won best director the best director we have so this is you're the person who didn't win for directing game of thrones and then you were like fuck it i'm gonna eat this thousand calories you needed it it's baby it's a baby bottle yeah um nurse the wounds i don't you know what's fun is when those award winners they don't go to the fancy ball they go

Starting point is 01:07:35 going to win oh wow they're like she's probably going to win so you should be following her a lot and she was like so she came to the pageant as like the probable winner and then she did that and she lost she was like so she came to the pageant as like the probable winner and then she did that and she lost oh my god she had it in the bag before the night she had been selected probably by donald himself as the winner and then it was when she was so such a dumb dumb they couldn't give it to her and this other girl won selected by jizz lane yes yes jeff and speaking
Starting point is 01:08:03 of in and out photo opportunity uh-huh do you guys know that i've shared a name with a character from the epstein verse oh yes i saw you posting this is so weird i'm sorry it started popping up under like youtube videos or like mention like it'd be like is this anderson who took the lolita express and i was like what and then i and it turns out it's with two s's she's like an ex-girlfriend of epstein's and she's in the black book right above magician david copperfield whoa who's also in the black book that's right right and you have magic connections i know yeah you've crossed paths so they're probably thinking he came to my house when i was a kid he would come by and like buy shit for my dad monkeys and uh have them draw pictures of you to be fair have you ever done some sort of train
Starting point is 01:08:49 immersive that was called the lolita express that's unrelated to the plane uh there was like this whole chain on i found on twitter where they put my photo up and they were like was it a childhood photo of you and your dad yeah and they and they're like, she was on the Alil Express. And then someone underneath was like, isn't her dad an admitted warlock? Yes, that's the thing about conspiracy people is like they are afraid of the dark arts. They are afraid of black magic. But then like on this chain too,
Starting point is 01:09:26 I found it was from, I was Googling my own name guys um someone corrected this woman and was list this q anon woman and was like that's not her she's it's a different person q anon to the rescue but i tweeted i but but but the picture of me had been like shared like 60 times like retweeted 60 times with my dad on it and everything so i tweeted at the lady i was like hey this that's not that's wrong and she was just like i was corrected already just look at the read the whole chain please and i was like okay like not a sorry not a sorry that i said you went on the lolita express to the island where they think there's like a temple with tunnels where that i went in the tunnels and got like adrenochrome with hillary from a screaming child already been yelled at a bunch

Oh yeah, there's a temple. Whoa. Neat. Did he build the temple? But no, you don't like get plastic guns strapped on.
Starting point is 01:10:32 I don't know. Go on an adventure with your friends. And the Zorro Ranch in New Mexico, from the earlier photographs, it looks like it has a maze, which I find very interesting. Oh my God. That's his ranch.
Starting point is 01:10:41 Right. He has like a Neverland type. I meant to look up. far apart musha k and little saint james are please is that how they know each other it's just like chartered flights to the islands evil islands yeah possible didn't we say we think there's an underground tunnel probably from like to the island oh yes or like the yeah the whatever it was at the channel what's underground what's the the channel is it's a channel i'm thinking of something like that there's like a channel between did you ever do jason wallner and john daly and i
Starting point is 01:11:22 did a tour of uh julep Barachi's collection in Vegas, which is like, I wanted to do this. You told us about this. We drove up to the house. Okay. Because it's the house where Michael, one of the last plays of Michael Jackson lived. The Thrilla Villa, where he like lived after he was exiled from Neverland. And the reason he bought this house was it was made by, it was built by some entertainer,
Starting point is 01:11:44 some guy who like ran a bunch of shows in the 50s or whatever but he built a house with tunnels connecting all the rooms which is not a good thing for anyone no one needs tunnels no alone michael jackson this guy well he needed it so that paparazzi couldn't fly over and see him so he would never leave the house but it was crazy because the you get a tour of the thriller villa and the first so like they're walking you through and they'll be like you'll be in a room they'll be like it's just really elaborate like uh room full of oil paintings like all these oil paintings are on loan from the french consulate uh when michael lived here all we know is that this whole room was painted black the windows were blacked out
Starting point is 01:12:21 and there was a single chair in the middle of the room okay now like they just say weird things like that and then you go into these tunnels underneath and you and liberace's collection is down there oh my god underground under in the tunnels tunnels yeah and you're in it also like the reason i didn't do it is because you just you told me a little more and you said like yeah that guy like picks you up in your car with lukewarm champagne in his car rather yeah like hey come on in and he's got like lukewarm just bought champagne from sushi he bought market sushi oh my god take you to a to michael jackson's tunnel i think i looked into this and it wasn't it's expensive but there was a there was something love it yeah it's really i would really like to do it the guy who does it is the consul to monaco and he's a whole character as well great and he just tells you all about he'll tell you all these secrets he told us like
Starting point is 01:13:10 a bunch of weird secrets just he's trying to we got the feeling like if we had asked the right question he would have gotten us literally anything we wanted like because he kept plying us with cheap champagne and sushi and being like so what else guys like he just kept trying to keep the party going and being like so any questions about anything in my fantasy of it the guy who hosts the tour is uh jaja gabor's husband the prince man the prince oh yeah i saw him i went to her estate sale and he was there in the room with us i think we may have talked about that yeah more celebrity estate sales i know oh yeah jason i mean yeah we're we got to get on the same mailing lists oh yeah i i missed it i couldn't squeeze in the
Starting point is 01:13:50 jack webb one i was really sad in a state sale when he had did you see that he had tagged even molly lambert yeah he had nine tvs he would watch all the tvs at once when when that would be on he supposedly when he moved out he packed one suitcase and walked out with everything still in the house that's a crazy that made that gave me goosebumps when i read that yeah what was what happened i don't know what happened to that man just the facts please that's what i want jesus i don't want any of this shit do you guys know that my parents bought the first the house that i uh was the first raised the first three years of my life was bought from my parents my parents bought it from jerry
Starting point is 01:14:30 mathers yeah like it was like that like that was a that was a handoff they met jerry mathers you just moved up in the celebrity rankings in my mother's head you're now number like 25 another layer of the beatles the monkeys david cassidy bobby sherman now it's scott because he lived in a house that was bought by the beaver i grew i was i crawled around a room the beaver lived in and then they were selling the house not that long after and there was a plaque in there like the beaver house oh my god place where he lived and didn't right it still qualifies the beaver house is that why they had a priest bless it because like god knows what sort of business jerry
Starting point is 01:15:15 mathers got up to in that house yeah yeah well my parents above as i've said before had every house blessed so that it couldn't get lit on fire okay anywhere i lived would be i should text my mom this right now let her know i lived in a oh wait sorry just the other thing about it the one thing is that there there was a uh there was a hole in the wall of the master bedroom that then my parents moved into but that apparently wasn't fixed before they got in there there was a hole in the wall that was distinctly a fist shaped hole oh so he punched the wall because he was so mad he wanted to punch his wife but he's like punch the wall instead oh so actually i you know my whole life i've thought like does that mean he's an abusive guy but if it saved somebody
Starting point is 01:15:55 from getting abused yeah you can't abuse a wall yeah you can hit him all you want yeah hit all the walls we lived in michael landon's house old house michael and he uh told my dad that he had like there were a bunch of pets buried in the basement like weird ones like an orangutan in the basement yeah you get to do the handoff where michael landon was like enjoy it no it was like some people that live there in the middle between some old people live between but then my dad met him at some sort of function was like i live in your old house and he was like oh and then he told him this was like grim creepy thing that orangutan had died in that house or something was it an unfinished basement like how was it why would it be buried in the basement i don't know like in the floorboards
Starting point is 01:16:39 this isn't michael jackson's house right yeah i don't know it's weird it is weird this is reminding me something i saw someone sent me a few weeks ago there was tour okay there were ghost tours but they were advertising it as like ghost tours of walt disney's own old house and it's not as famous like holmby hill like his big house he lived in like 10 places in the los feliz area when he first lived here so it was a house but very slyly the ghost tour operators put in like and then the house was also owned by the la biancas and i was like oh my god did did he live in the la bianca house no it was just another house that the la biancas lived in before the house where they were killed by the manson family different wow different which
Starting point is 01:17:32 you yeah that's not right to call it the la bianca house you know what that means it's a la bianca house and a disney house but it's not the in either case just think about it guys if manson had just come a bunch of years earlier into a different house, he could have killed Walt Disney. Walt Disney. Well, if he'd cranked through it all a little soon. There's maybe a little slice of time
Starting point is 01:17:56 where he was on the prowl and doing drugs and stuff and Walt was going to die in a couple weeks. He could have gotten in there. Yeah. Just fed it along. James Elroy wrote this book for sure. It in like a couple weeks. He could have gotten in there. Yeah. Just spread it along. James Elroy wrote this book for sure. It's like a crime conspiracy novel. In a hundred years, this is what we'll think happened.
Starting point is 01:18:11 Like when all of history jumbles together. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Manson killed Disney. The 60s died when Manson killed JFK and then Disney. A quick update I did find. So, Musha K is in the bahamas uh little saint james is more between the british virgin islands and puerto rico so kind of a decent decent distance so the channel is big
Starting point is 01:18:34 that's a big channel between the two islands they definitely visited each other's islands though guys yes for sure for sure all right and now to unfavorite little saint james lest i get trapped oh yeah don't keep that pin i had to yes i had to get in so i could get like got put in like got sawed in half like a like giggling and i like a little like trick and she was like oh david they're like would you like my monkeys to draw you you know what they've only ever drawn one person and it was jeffrey eps oh when they're like digging through the remains of mushike in a jurassic park nature has been reclaiming it and then they find an old drawing wait a minute and wait a minute and also there's been all these
Starting point is 01:19:20 questions about how did epstein just magically evade the cameras evade the security guards maybe oh no no magician david copperfield helped him fake his death we just solved it that's what happened that is honestly you're right it is what happened maybe he's still alive maybe he dug like a channel or something do Do we know what Epstein's father did? Where did he work in the military? Oh, did he ever work in Area 51? Did he also have a little friend that helped him?
Starting point is 01:19:53 David gave, okay, so David, of course, broke into the prison. We're also, by the way, referring to things you have to listen to the Patreon. Subscribe to Patreon, patreon.com. The Copperfield episode's worth it. Oh, thank you. Yeah oh thank you yeah thank you he gave Epstein his time stone
Starting point is 01:20:08 and sent Epstein back in time that's where so if they want to find Epstein they gotta go to the past they have to go to the past they gotta go to a park
Starting point is 01:20:15 where Epstein's dad is kissing Epstein's mom oh no yes love Jeffrey the answer is love the message was love, Jeffrey.
Starting point is 01:20:26 There's a picture of Trump, Epstein, and Blue 32 hanging out. Oh, man. I was going to get you guys those Blue 32 pouches, but they're so ugly. They're so ugly. I was like, that's not cool. I would spend $150 on that nice blue. If they made him, I want it so bad.
Starting point is 01:20:47 I need blue. Competing over the same pageant contestant. Yeah, sure. She's hot, Donald. Make sure to stick with her. She's going to win.
Starting point is 01:21:02 It's honestly like they're the same sense of humor like trump making fun of somebody you can't speak english like blue did during the copperfield show like i can't understand it david trump farts root beer for sure i bet i know how his farts smell please oh my god if you're confused about any of this please seriously go to the patreon listen to the episode okay winding down we should talk about the other figure in all of this yes in the patina group yes uh nick valente um and you know what's funny we've been talking about this we're in our this research has been going for a little while the first time i ever checked the website it said founder and ceo nick valente of the patina group now it just says founder because guys he's out whoa he's out of the company it used to be the patina group that
Starting point is 01:21:51 runs all these restaurants used to be a two-ander nick valente hit the bricks i'm not sure what and it happened this year as recently like within the last few months um let me see uh he's just an external advisor through his company simple hospitality llc he works on special projects for this other not unnerving name for a company delaware north definitely not like a scammy above board in that um state half run by dupont's half run by credit card companies sure i'm totally fine north delaware no no not north delaware north or north flip it around um and then also i think it's so it's been a tough little run for the patina group yeah uh because they've also recently been kicked out
Starting point is 01:22:38 of uh rockefeller center that's so if you're if you live listening to this you live in new york and you're a fan of patina's sea grill rock center cafe or cucina and co uh it well january 2020 it's all out it's gone wow so patina something's going i couldn't find any more information about the drama right but joaquin swishall king of the thousand calorie gratin Has There's been the split With old Nick Valenti And I don't know What does this mean for their future At Downtown Disney What does it mean for the future of the company
Starting point is 01:23:13 Yeah that's a good question I mean there's something we have to answer Obviously on the next Downtown Disney ordeal Yes In two years maybe Yeah Downtown Disney ordeal revisited
Starting point is 01:23:22 Yeah I was looking at all the lists i i will real quick i just want to praise them they don't have a lot of repeat name restaurants which i like that's impressive the disney naples napolini via napoli is a little confusing a little confusing i'm just saying that it's not they're not doing the they're trying to do different concepts which i appreciate that's anyway so we don't know yeah there's there could be some shadowy things happening. Yeah. I don't want to say evil spirits are involved in the patina group, but maybe something's
Starting point is 01:23:53 going on. Interesting. Maybe he was trying to propose less or more calories in the thousand calorie gratin. Yeah. And he was shouted down and stormed out never to return. We don't even know what kind of express plane he's been on no a man with that power right what channel he is went through to get to an island he's described everywhere as like a major new york restaurateur
Starting point is 01:24:18 so yeah who knows we know what's up in the New York socialites. We're on to you. This is something we're going to have to just keep exploring, I guess, in further episodes because we've got a lot more patina to go. For now, I guess we've went our way to the end. We get to say, Eva Anderson, you survived.
Starting point is 01:24:42 Hey. Where did Eva go? What happened? What? Wait a minute. Guys, am I seeing something? We're looking over. I looked at my notes to say goodbye and remind myself of Eva's name. And then I looked up and she's not here anymore.
Starting point is 01:24:58 I looked down at my computer to remember Eva's name as well, just to make sure on the way out you got it right. Because you wouldn't want to say the name. But she's gone. But she's gone but she's gone yes there's just a puff of like marinara sauce red smoke which is different from the kind of water vapor like buffalo ink flavored water vapor that the uh sector keeper has been vaping right yeah right distinctly huh but him being a vapor expert maybe he could tell us what's going on. Or just explain. What the fuck?
Starting point is 01:25:28 We've never had a guest to just not make it through. I say you survive podcast to ride. This is the first time it hasn't worked out. Yeah, I mean, there's been guests that clearly wanted to leave because they were bored with us. But they've never actually disappeared on us. Jesus Christ. Okay. but they've never actually disappeared on us jesus christ okay well then maybe we need to bring in vapor expert and evil spirit yeah expert the sector keeper we weren't planning on having him
Starting point is 01:25:52 he just popped in to tell us where we're going this episode but we got to get him in the room hey sector keeper what the fuck's going on Keeper appears. What the hell's going on? What happened to Eva Anderson? I don't know, boys. Things aren't good. Things aren't good. It truly is an ordeal.
