Darkness falls out on the street, evil rears its head
Get your crazy shake to go and your fried donut bread
The villains threaten this sacred place, this downtown shopping mall
We must defend the Lego store and the Splitsville bowling balls
The Downtown Disney or D.U.
We must protect our AP discount meals
The Downtown Disney or D.U.
What secrets does the Earl of Sandwich conceal?
Boys, boys, my cousin has been taken by evil forces that have inhabited Downtown Disney
In order to find them them you will need to
thoroughly discuss every aspect of the mall stores restaurants both of the starbucks we have 15 daily
very necessary episodes in which to do so i will be there to guide you and keep your conversations
from getting too off topic or boring the downtown disney ordeal why do we do this to ourselves
welcome to podcast the ride level two stage one mine oh shit uh it's a downtown disney ordeal
i'm sorry it's fine i'll keep this in my name is mike carlson i forgot what ordeal we were in
we had defeated boss nick valente and i thought it was done but it's not done yeah yeah well we're still
recovering from what was a painful battle but yeah but we're we're doing well uh we're doing
well on this jason sheridan is here i'm here uh that was scott gerdner uh yes hi i mean obviously
we're concerned about eva i don't yes i hope that we'll find eva again and i i sense that we'll find Eva again, and I sense that we will.
I hope.
But we have not had this where a guest has gone missing during the episode,
which is certainly a little alarming and obviously something we hope will not happen to our guest today.
No, I hope she is here and makes it out safely.
She is scared.
She looks very scared.
She might not even know what we're
talking about uh this is of course lindsey katai uh she lives here that's what i'm known for yeah
she is my girlfriend uh she is you know her from the duffy episode you know her from uh
the tokyo episode you know her from infinity train now finally that's been on and like every time we've
recorded yeah it's very exciting and also uh my podcast teen creeps yeah of course teen creeps
and people know you from uh weighing in and correcting our dumb asses from the kitchen
while we record perhaps a chuckle in the background as well anything that happened before the year let's say
1990 we've probably gotten wrong yes or that isn't in the theme park sphere anything that happened in
uh the world uh edwin has jumped into her lap like a kind of like a mr bigglesworth uh dr evil
situation his head yeah with an evil glint in my eye.
I'll take a photo of it for the listeners.
Today, you know, look, this is the Downtown Disney ordeal.
There we go.
That's a good photo.
This is Downtown Disney ordeal.
This is very serious.
So you're on an episode now with steaks.
I did not know that I was risking life and limb
by appearing on the episode.
Yeah, you should have told Lindsay that you said
Eva Anderson disappeared.
Is it like a Twilight Zone
stuck in the walls kind of a thing?
We don't know. We turned to say thanks
for being on the show and then she
disappeared. I don't know
where she is. I'm a fan of Eva's.
This is upsetting. She's one of our favorite guests and I honestly don't know where she is i'm a fan of eva's this is upsetting she's wonderful one of
our favorite guests and i honestly i don't know where to find her right now well hopefully she
turns up somewhere in the ordeal i don't know we'll see but there's all these basically like
okay if you remember the last one uh the sector keeper uh was our guy we were trying to free his
spirit but now there's all this other stuff evil spirits have invaded downtown disney and we're trying to they've taken i think even must have been taken
by i guess the same people who took the level keeper who's the sector keeper's cousin uh so
there's all this crazy stuff if we we lost a battle with nick not not lost about we the defeated
nick valente dark nick valente But then I took a dark turn.
Yes.
It took a mysterious turn.
There were casualties, yes.
So as far as, yeah.
So anyway, I'm sure it'll be fine today.
I'm sure you're going to be fine.
Oh, also, the sector keeper jewels now.
So if you wonder why your living room is very foggy,
it's from his jeweling.
I wasn't going to ask, but thank you for clearing that up.
Also, anything we seem foggy about, we're blaming on the jewel vapor.
Yep.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, I'm going to get a contact jewel high.
That's true, yes.
That's true.
The only one any of us would get, I would have to think.
Also, he's mostly busy this episode.
That's why he's not around, the sector keeper.
Yeah, yeah.
Mostly, but he told us we
could check in real quick and just get uh our assignment for today so let's do that right now
oh great sector keeper where are we going today boys boys today's stage is pandora jewelry
jamba juice slash jamba and sephora best of luck boys all right so first things first pandora yes
pandora jewelry dora specifically it's good that you have a lady here who uh wears a lot of pandora
to walk you through this yes you when you walk in a room it's like a cat with a bell
on yeah yeah you're bangle you are covered in bangles i'm approaching middle age and so obviously
i am a part of this world now the second i turned 37 mike got me a pandora bracelet it was my
favorite gift way better than duffy oh that's poor duffy that old gifts i also though bought
but then you bought one for duffy i was gonna
say i bought duffy a few different things from pandora that's true and that now that has been
a point of contention gets one more bangle he has a bracelet he got an extra bangle and it's been a
real problem in the house he has so many charms on his little bracelet because he has so many jobs
he and you need to give him a charm to
represent his sailing yes painting and his dancing uh yeah he does a lot of dancing uh so yes pandora
uh yeah this is a place that i had never been in until we had to be there yeah me too although it had piqued my interest and gotten on my radar before the ordeal
because of some ads that were appearing uh i believe mostly on on hulu i'm still pay i still
do the ad version of hulu and almost every commercial break for a little while this will date it back in may with the uh major really the
earth-shattering release of live action lion king we were all thinking about it all heavily
anticipating it and there were these ads where it's majestic shots of the jungle it's uh vastly It's vastly superior, fully many, many hair follicles Simba and non-brightly colored Timon
and Pumbaa, what we now accept in November here as the ultimate Timon and Pumbaa.
Technically skilled, but not visually striking.
Yes.
You could say that, I guess.
Well, it's real is what it is.
It's a real warthog and real war real war dogs and lions can't open their mouths at
all.
The thinnest mouths,
uh,
like their jaws are being wired shut.
So,
uh,
there was this ad where it's,
yeah,
it's so majestic and the end instrumental.
Can you feel the love tonight is playing.
And then Simba,
uh,
leans over to see his reflection,
uh,
in the waters and there's a ripple.
And then his reflection is replaced by a little jewel
a charm is it a charm their official term is charm yeah because it's a fucking charm bracelet
yeah yes and then the charm like keeps going out of the water and and uh envelops the the whole screen and uh and then you realize it's
all been an ad for pandora's lion king collection i think i always find like uh reflection stuff
really funny this is really funny song and uh um oh yes yeah that's really funny
look at all that water um what's it's the i may have talked about before
the this really funny high school musical song it's been the one where they work at a like a
golf resort for a summer and uh zach efron doesn't know who he is anymore it's called bed on it and
he looks into the reflection and his reflection like is way too bright and composed on there and
sings back to him and so seeing some reflection hijinks just made me really happy.
And I got very like, Pandora?
And I guess I've seen that store at Downtown Disney,
but it's not like an ad for the radio?
It's not like the... No, not Pandora,
which is now merged with SiriusXM.
Oh, okay.
It's SiriusXM Pandora.
I see.
But it's not that.
But I was like,
the charm bracelet company bought Sirius x no no i feel like their stock
has dropped like then they'd have like an opie and anthony charm that you could buy you could buy
but they're the way they render their logos are really similar to yes so it always can feel i
think i must have honestly passed by it at downtown disney and thought this is like a sign-up station for the radio really i think
that's very funny that seems like the kind of weird shit that would be you know there's all
this weird like yeah samsung vr demonstrations at the americana i thought it was something like
that one of those like brick and mortar stores where you can't get anything brick and mortar
yeah right it's just a weird and void space that you enter
like the void to learn about the actual void yeah like minimal that is one of this i guess coming up
yeah um it's just made me go ever since seeing that ad and now walking into the store and i
still would ask this question what the fuck is this what is pandora this is the oddest thing
have a disney princess collection or is that the jewelry store sales?
Oh, they got all kinds of stuff.
They have Disney princess collection.
Okay.
But first off, let's say that Pandora
in Greek mythology is the first human woman
created by Hephaestus on the instructions of Zeus.
And she opened a box that unleashed all the evil ones
yeah it's a really good namesake to choose yeah it makes perfect sense because the same way that
you open a box and are delighted by your charm bracelet yeah much as pandora opened her box and
was delighted by all of the plagues and evil is customizable and that's the big selling point
i feel like at pandora is that it's customizable so you can like you may end up with an 800 bracelet
but it's made of like a 100 piece a 30 piece a 300 like and it's all sterling silver sterling silver and 14 karat gold they
deal in and did they have a hercules collection when the movie hercules came out oh that would
be a disney association is pretty new okay fairly new when the live action hercules comes out they
will oh yeah yeah there you go. It would be a missed opportunity.
Yes.
Not to.
To have a James Woods Hades charm.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
To go with your Opie and Anthony charm.
And they will keep him the same way they kept James Earl Jones.
Yeah.
You can't replace.
You can't.
Who else is going to?
James Woods.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So they have, what were you saying?
They,
they have just gold and silver.
It's good.
There's no bronze.
0.925 sterling silver.
There is rose gold.
Oh, okay.
And 14 karat gold.
And then,
uh,
the accents include gemstones,
cultured pearls,
Murano glass,
and brilliant cubic zirconia.
Of course,
that is the fake diamond, cubic zirconia. Of course. So you're Disney spot for cubic zirconia. Of course, that is the fake diamond cubic zirconia.
Of course. So you're Disney spot for cubic
zirconia. Right. Yeah.
And this whole charm bracelet thing,
I was trying to...
Have you had
a charm bracelet? Does anyone do this? Yeah, when I was a
fucking child.
I don't understand why this is being
marketed to middle-aged women.
And these are like 40-ish. At this point, not even middle-aged women. And these are like 40s.
At this point, not even middle-aged women.
This has got to be like approaching seniorhood.
Maybe, yeah.
I'm honestly, I'm not exactly sure.
I mean, these charms are not cheap.
They're $40 for a tiny charm.
And unattractive.
Yeah.
Well, I don't know.
When I was researching some of that, I don't know if I would say unattractive,
but it may be a little bit...
You don't think this is what it mentioned?
Oh, I want that actually.
Give me that.
That is very cool.
Oh my God.
I'm going to say, that's what I'm saying.
Some of them are kind of cool.
It's kind of cool, but it's also a little...
The thing is, it's just a tiny charm jangling with a bunch of other charms.
People don't even really get a good look at it no one will ever stare at that on your wrist no if you somebody's like can i look at your wrist
for a while it's weird you look like if you make a lot of noise at the bank maybe someone will ask
you about them yeah but traditionally the way i know it is it's a elementary school boyfriend gift
yes that's right good context huh and then you
add charm is that right you would add add things to it yeah so it'd be like somebody gets you a
charm bracelet maybe they get you three charms four charms five charms and then you can add to
it yourself or you can keep receiving charm gifts right it becomes like the how your uncle finds out
you're into tigers and then he just keeps getting you tiger shit.
Forever.
Oh, I know Bethany has a charm bracelet.
Let's just keep giving her charms.
I'm a new uncle pretty recently and this is now the thing to avoid.
I should try to learn a second fact about my niece.
At least two facts and then you're like way ahead of the uncle game.
One of the best uncles in the top uncle percentile.
Well, maybe she'll like Disney ticket books.
A through E, baby.
The E ticket?
The E ticket book.
There are some very good Disney tickets.
Lindsay likes the Pandora.
She's been turned around quickly by this.
Pee's in a pod, you two, because Mike, you were saying on an earlier one,
we wish the world at Disney Store had like more specificity in their items for sale for maniacs like us it's impressive
yeah yeah um so there are there's a lot of disney stuff in there and they have like you know your
standard like uh lincoln characters and they have uh i think there's like a maybe a jiminy cricket and a mickey
and stuff like mini um and i don't know scott if this is what you found or this is what fascinated
you the most is that i'm looking through the site and lindsey can attest to the excitement i felt
when i found this this is a good find there There are Pandora exclusive characters.
Oh, original characters?
Original characters that are specific to Pandora.
So they own probably the IP.
They're called the Pandora Friends.
I can't believe that they have this.
I was so excited about this.
Pandora Friends.
So this is like, remember when we found,
what's that rock and roll
lady's name?
The doll?
Janis Joplin.
No, no, no.
Was it Harley Ray?
It was like Bailey Ray.
It was not Harley.
It was not Bailey.
The Hard Rock Park,
like Barbie-esque.
Yeah, she was an original IP.
Harper Ray.
Harper Ray.
Thank you.
I do remember this actually we realized her from
hard rock you right i must have been passing through the kitchen when you guys were talking
i think it's on the episode with paul sheer and the city walk saga is that we're harper ray we
were investigating harper ray uh which is uh yeah anyway so a great thing for four adults to do. A great thing for many adults.
Four adults.
So there are characters in the Pandora Friends series
like Pippo the Flying Pig.
And the write-up for Pippo is
anything is possible in a world where pigs can fly.
And Pippo the Flying Pig will surely agree.
One of the Pandora Friends,
Pippo the Flying Pig represents the belief
that all you have to do
is trust in yourself
to make your wildest dreams come true.
The charm's adorable design
features a pair of small wings
and a cute oversized head
to let everyone know
that dreaming big
is always an option.
So there's your Pippo Pig.
You can see it.
Does this predate Pippa Pig?
That's a good question.
We need to look into that.
It's a very cute name.
Boo the Ghost is another character.
Nino the Hedgehog.
Dino the Dinosaur.
Nino Dino.
Reno the Rhinoceros.
And then we get into my favorites.
Floral Bella Bot, who is a robot.
And there she is.
It's Rosie the robot
That's a straight up copy
She's good
Heart beeps?
It's a little bit like heart beeps
Our heart beeps line
This is her just for the season
In a floral headpiece
And butterfly wings
Then she of course has Robbot
Here
And he is the boyfriend of Bellabot
And he's a Pandora friend
And then they have
Bobbybot the dog robot
Meet Bellabot's
Faithful dog Bobbybot
With moving left legs
Flapping ears and a heart full of charm
He is a bot's best friend
Take him for a walk on your bracelet together with Bella Bot.
So the bots are my favorite of all of the Pandora IP, obviously.
Bella, Rob, and Bobby.
Those are my favorite Pandora characters.
Bella, Rob, Bobby.
Are you going to get to my favorite?
Bella Bot.
Which one was your favorite?
The one with the unfortunate name.
Isn't there one with like a nothing name?
Oh, well, that's not.
Okay.
So here's where we're getting to this.
That is not an official Pandora friend.
What?
They have other characters and designs that don't fall under the umbrella of the Pandora friends.
That's why it doesn't have a real name.
Yes.
Well, if I get to pitch to Disney+,
I know what
subject matter,
and I know who my
room is. They're all
right here. Travel to the world of
cubic zirconia, where you'll meet
the Pandora Friends.
The one line that has
nothing to do with Disney.
That's just a deal they make.
They just have a relationship.
Those aren't Disney characters.
They have to pay a silver company to use these characters.
Wait, so they're not...
Okay.
No, this is only Pandora.
They're Pandora-generated characters,
not original Disney characters generated for Pandora.
I don't believe so.
This has nothing to do with Pandora the World of Avatar. Nothing to do with Pandora the I don't believe so. Correct. It has nothing to do
with Pandora the World of Avatar.
Nothing to do with
Pandora the World of Avatar.
Too much crossover.
Or Pandora,
the woman who committed
the original sin
of unleashing evil to them.
Oh, I guess that would be
an Eve parallel.
Right, it's kind of
the same Eve parallel.
I never thought about that.
So they have, okay,
so they have other
original characters
that aren't named.
So here's one of my favorites, Little Boy Charm.
And Little Boy Charm is adorable.
You are making such intense eye contact with me right now.
He's got a beanie with a propeller on the top, and he's smiling.
And I'm not going to say.
All right, just give me the box.
God damn it.
Look, it's $55.
I did not buy you one.
If I was doing better financially, maybe I would have.
I found a $22 Pippo the Flying Pig on Etsy.
Is it bootlegged Pippo?
It says it's 100% 925 Sterling.
Why would they be selling this on Etsy?
Etsy has a read sale stuff.
Because remember when you said
That you should buy those pins on Amazon
You got a lot of flack for that
Because those are burner pins
Those aren't fake Disney pins
And that's
I don't want to
This Pippo would just be for me
Oh okay
If I put the affection on it
It's still valid
Right
That's true
Here we'll post all of these
Here's Grandpa Charm as well
I like Grandpa
Once again
I can see your Feel the daggers why are you
staring leaning towards jason uh here's princess emoticon i do like these are my favorite ones so
far no offense to the robots uh okay so uh princess character charm princess like was this before or after disney it's unclear i got a lot of princesses to work
with now yeah this one just says wifey on it it looks like a dog tag also oh no it just says wifey
uh this says uh just this one just says nurse on it and has a stethoscope well yeah these are your
standard charms where
it's like if you were in elementary school you would have gotten a book if you were a reader
and now you're an adult and your husband's like i don't know she's a nurse
there's a charm that says your job on it here's a cool face emoticon charm
big lips big sunglasses yeah. Yeah, very fun.
Here is one that Lindsay will like a lot.
Pink popcorn charm.
Oh, hell yeah.
Lindsay's a big popcorn fan.
The problem is I might eat it.
There's a good chance that you would get in a moment of weakness. Get lodged in there.
Just like a kernel.
You got to be careful.
Don't swallow that.
And then, yeah, and then there's Sweet tree monster charm
And this is a little
Monster man
Groot
He's kind of like Groot
It's just Groot
It's just Groot
With green eyes
So I am very
Very interested
In the expanded
Pandora world
Because there's
Obviously there's
Multiple
Continuities now
There's just like
A emoticon face
Continuity
But also the
Pandora friends
And they are separate So there's many Different emoticon face continuity but also the pandora friends and they are separate
so there's many different you know potential shows and movies based on the pandora characters what
i'm getting at and uh then eventually like the avengers you bring all of the pandora charm
characters together in one movie yes uh and that's think, going to be very exciting for the viewer. And like the Lego movie, you have access to all of the aerials in it
because she's a Pandora charm.
She's a charm.
Taylor made for Disney+.
A nurse stethoscope is in it.
That's right.
I think other jewelry companies might sell, not bootleg charm like, might sell charm-sized for standard Pandora dimensions.
Because I have a memory of being down the Jersey Shore and seeing a jewelry store go, like, get your charms that say, that's the logo for, like, Johnson's Caramel Corn and Manco & Manco Pizza.
Like, the local landmarks.
You can get a charm of that to put on a charm bracelet
delicious it's like the best used to be mac and manco and the family's had a falling out
well the guy's might be i think he's going to jail he was skimming money in the hundreds of
thousands oh man it's crazy geez don't commemorate him on a charm that's
for sure did you ever own did anyone here i mean uh did you ever own a bracelet as a child of any
kind i wasn't even answering because i feel like it's assumed a girl would it was assumed i was
being very i had a tennis bracelet.
I did have a charm bracelet at one point in time.
I wish that my memory were better these days so that I could tell you what charms there were.
Right.
Don't remember.
Can you tell me why were they called tennis bracelets?
I assume they originated with like rich women playing tennis,
wanting to wear a delicate bracelet.
That wouldn't fly off.
Yeah.
Cause they were like,
yeah,
but tennis bracelets as far as the traditional version,
I know is just like a ring of,
I assume for the richer people diamonds.
But as a child for me,
it was obviously cubic zirconia.
Right. I see. Okay. I feel like i had like i'm a grown-up now i had like a i feel like my friend of mine who moved
away made me like a friendship bracelet out of like kind of like red and maybe like not twine
but like some light material i feel like it unraveled after a month or two sure i had some
slap bracelets oh hell yeah right now and then those other kind of fabric 90s ones that were
like black or green or orange and that flex on them there were usually prizes at chucky cheese
or somewhere like chucky cheese also there were lanyard bracelets i made a few of those in my day what was like like
like plastic string that you would then braid into a little square at summer camp yeah you
could make either lanyard keychains or lanyard bracelets right and then a really common one
with uh girls were the best friends bracelets where you had one half of a heart and
your friend had the other one yours would say like oh yeah yeah a friend right that's sweet
we got to do that for the podcast three way one okay does pandora make a three-way charm bracelet
that we could all wear oh i found i found the charm that I said was my favorite last night just because of the name.
Oh.
Square Cartoon Face Murano Glass Charm.
That's my favorite character.
Cartoon face.
And his eyes are like, he's like a little bit cross-eyed.
Why?
I don't know.
Because it's fun, I guess.
Because he's kooky.
He's kooky uh if uh if you were going to try to exactly nail the charm bracelet set for you there is a very helpful item on pandora's website
specifically within the disney line area on the website there is a quiz that you
can do that determines what's your disney dna oh wow quizzes yeah yes it's a lot of fun i believe
it's five questions and i'm sure once you've answered them you'll understand exactly why you
got the results you got and there you'll find them to be incredibly accurate.
But it's like, it's through the,
one of the slowest loading Flash games you could imagine.
It's not Oh My Disney's What's Your Disney Character DNA?
No.
I found a different quiz about your Disney DNA on Oh My Disney just now.
Yes, of course.
No, no, no.
It's on Pandora's Disney sub-site.
This is to get you to buy stuff, though.
Yes.
Start by providing a sample of your dna
i had to send a urine sample to pandora.com uh i well so uh that's basically through five
questions the only one i could what's that i said that's not how you get dna yeah yeah
piss right it's p it's p, we are getting cease and desist
letters. Please stop sending your samples
to all the doubt.
If I send enough pee,
then they'll know the kind of juice
and ice cream that's what I want.
With a note that says,
I hope I did this right.
They said the note is the worst part.
What's my sandal DNA, Sanu?
Enjoy the pee.
I answered five trivia questions.
I only remember one of them, which is like, what's your personal anthem?
And then you get five random Disney songs.
One of them, I think, is Zero to Hero.
Are you doing that right now?
Yeah, and I said, like, what's your motto?
And I said, Mother Knows Best.
Was that an option, or did you doing that right now yeah and i said like what's your motto and i said mother knows best was that an option or did you type that in i hacked to the website to write it in it wasn't an option to write in but i figured
we've gotten cease and desist letters please stop uh hacking webs to say mother knows best. You're finishing yours right now.
I will say my results, which is that I am lighthearted like Mickey.
I am selfless like Eric.
Prince Eric.
From Little Mermaid.
Selfless.
Yeah, I know who he is.
I don't see it.
Oh, I see it.
And I got outgoing like Simba.
The guy, the old Simba,
who although it's an old version of Simba,
not the superior Favreau one,
but Simba who piqued my interest in this entire thing
and he was one of my charms.
So if I were to have my correct Disney DNA,
I am Simba, Mickey, and Eric.
And I don't know how they ended up,
there's never a gender question,
and I ended up with all male choices.
Aaron did it and got selfless like Aladdin.
What are these?
I guess he risks himself.
Eventually he is, eventually.
He frees the genie.
I'm getting me some creedy
joy choices as it goes aaron is selfless like aladdin heroic like eric different eric quality
don't you dare get eric for your for his heroism and light-hearted like cinderella okay number one
i got bell i always put others first just like Belle when she offers herself up as the beast's
prisoner in place of her father.
When phrased that way, it's very troubling.
I am grumpy.
Okay.
You are cautious, just like Grumpy, who warns the dwarves, don't touch it, you fools.
Might be poison when they go touching a bubbling cauldron left in their house.
That's true.
That was sensible advice, though.
Yeah, it was. And I'm always telling you not to touch a bubbling cauldron left in their house that's true that was sensible advice though yeah it was and i'm always telling you not to touch a bubbling cauldron i never learned
and there's another one oh and i'm eric ah this character reason this character was the talk of
the playground when you were in school did you have them on your lunchbox or pencil case no i got that as well what was the quality of eric it's heroic like eric smart
like grumpy selfless like bell i mean this nailed me honestly i was gonna say it did that's yeah so
that is who you are that's pretty good very nice i the mickey descriptor was similarly bizarre where
it says mickey brings his friends together to solve challenges and make it one big game.
That is...
It?
Does Mickey ever done that?
I guess.
I think so.
Maybe.
Mickey has no qualities is the problem.
They gave me Mickey because I'm flat.
Not enough about me, so I had to get Mickey.
Okay, I can take it on an iPad.
Yeah, so I'll take mine. Yeah, but let me so let me say okay oh no no no well i was just gonna say i feel like
we've been you know critical here and there are some downtown business downtown disney stuff uh
i'll say this i think downtown disney compared to city walk i think downtown disney has a does a better job of having
places that if you were on vacation you would go like oh i'll splurge for that you know on vacation
you know i did nothing about the cost i'll impulse buy you know sure sure sure i feel like less of
that there and yeah at city walk um well my uh my wife who is selfless lighthearted and heroic
splurged on me for my birthday a couple months ago and knowing uh my obsession with this commercial
got me oh wow my very own and i'll show you it's still mounted in the card that she gave me with it
the cards they call each other. It says happy birthday to
my pal and it is a big
it's a big Simba
chain and then
you open it up and dangling inside
in a screenshot of the reflection
is
a genuine
as she said a genuine
Pandora gem for my king
and he has a little like he's got a little red nose and dark eyes As she said, a genuine Pandora gem for my king.
And he has a little, like, he's got a little red nose and dark eyes.
I'll pass it around if you want to see, since we don't know what one of these is like up close.
Here, I'll send it this way first.
She has the greatest handwriting I have ever seen.
Well, it's her profession.
That's true.
She's very, yeah, thanks for that. Yeah, the cards are she's gonna make cards too uh what's that this looks like mufasa it might
be mufasa yeah well i don't know i mean but simba does grow up so essentially people mistake mufasa
for or simba for mufasa so uh a very thoughtful gift did make me. Did make me very happy. I think, I have to say, I believe she did get it on the black market.
I don't think this was from Pandora Official.
Oh, so she just made this card herself.
Well, yes.
It's so crafty.
It's very.
I thought it was professional.
I have a lot of good, nice things to say about my wife.
I'm going to need you.
Yes.
Yeah.
It's very, I don't want to unmount it from this.
And she even tied it in the back with a little thread.
It's like a little piece itself.
So you don't want to put.
She's so artistic.
If you want to put it, like maybe you're going to get very interested in another charm eventually.
And then maybe like you will be tempted, I think, to put it on a bracelet.
But we'll see.
Because it's hard to take it off that. Because it's a piece of itself.
And sitting in the reflection pool.
Right.
My favorite moment where Simba looks in the water and realizes he's really a charm.
Right.
I finished my quiz.
I have to say no one's mentioned the unnerving DNA strand made of pearls floating in the background.
Well, it's kind of a Mickey.
Like the little, because you get three choices and then they sort of form.
Oh, they form a Mickey.
But as your.
Genetic Mickey.
As the quiz appears, there's like a DNA.
Well, whatever you call it in the background.
Strand, yeah.
It's very pretty.
Mr. DNA.
Mr. DNA.
I'm taking it right now.
Okay.
I got happy from The Seven Dwarfs.
You love helping out others, just like Happy,
who does the talking for the shy dopey.
Well, I do talk a lot.
Kanga!
I'm Kanga.
Oh, Kanga.
Getting some different ones.
You are always open to making new friends,
just like Kanga, who immediately invites Tigger
to live with her in Rue when he first arrives
in the Hundred acre wood.
I forgot she did that.
Takes in a strange
drifter.
With a lot of manic energy.
This character was school ground
lunchbox or pencil case.
Yeah that's it. I'm these
three weird choices.
There's the charms. What was the Eric quality?
Heroic. Why did both of you not say three weird choices. There's the charms. What was the Eric quality?
Heroic.
Why did both of you not say the Eric quality? Because we didn't get
until after. It's on the last page.
Selfless, outgoing,
heroic. You haven't gone through all of them yet.
You're not understanding the website.
Hold on, hold on a second. How dare you?
Hours of fun, this game.
The charm for Eric is a shell.
The charm for Eric is a shell. The charm for Happy is...
I can't tell what that is.
His big fat belly.
It's like...
I think it's all of them.
And the charm for Kanga is Eeyore.
What the shit?
I guess that's the only...
This is female erasure.
That is true.
There's no way they have a dang Kanga charm. I guess that's the only... This is female erasure. That is true.
There's no way they have a dang Kanga charm.
So like, oh, here's a male character.
What'd you get?
I got Pinocchio first. You're a liar.
I am selfless just like Pinocchio.
Yeah, and I get...
Liar is way more Pinocchio.
And like aimless and gullible and
disgusting actor almost turns into a donkey.
You are selfless just like Pinocchio when he risks his life to save his
father, proving his selflessness to the blue fairy ish.
I also got happy, outgoing and friendly with everyone
son of a bitch you gotta be fucking kidding me eric eric eric why are they why
to get rid of i have a theory i got selfless outgoing and heroic my theory is that they have
like an overstock of shells yeah and they're like're like, we gotta call everyone Eric, I guess, to get it.
Like, instead of like when they have too many bells, they'll just be like, everyone's bell.
Everyone's selfless.
You turn the shell upside down, it's the bottom of her dress.
Your shell.
Here's their skirt.
Your bell now.
I said my anthem was poor, unfortunate souls.
Why are you Eric?
Heroic.
Heroic.
I'm the only selfless Eric in the room?
Yeah.
Well, I'm a only selfless eric in the room well i'm a i'm a lying selfless person
um the so i looked on it the pinocchio is just a little pinocchio charm hanging um after the mobs
got to him the eric one is the shell and the happy one is all of the dwarves shoved in a match.
Yeah, I got that.
Yeah.
Okay.
Which is kind of disturbing.
Like they've been rolled up into a wheel and are fused together for eternity.
Like a dwarf king.
Like a rat king.
Like, oh yeah, they're a dwarf king.
This is David Cronenberg's Seven Dwarves.
It is.
It's body horror. Let's try. Okay try okay i'm gonna go back in the quiz let's try to see you getting something way different
first question is what year were you born i'm gonna put 1902
okay so 1902 what song is your anthem zero to hero i just can't wait to be king let it go
mother knows best poor unfortunate souls let's say like poor unfortunate souls that's what i said too it's too late it's too late it's too late okay uh the next that yeah
the dna really takes a while to load you've got a day off do you explore somewhere new spend all
day with a good book do something creative make new friends at a party hang out with friends
uh i said so generic book uh i would say i said book do something so generic Book I would say Oh I said book
Do something
Explore somewhere new
Okay
Let's say that
And then cute Mickey
Shoots a star out of his hand
At the DNA
To add
Mickey often is
Blasting pyro
From his fingers
That's true
Very often in the parks
Blasting pyro
Do you discover some treasure
Do you give it all to charity
Share it with friends
Family
Keep what you need Give the rest away Go on a shopping spree bury it in the garden
and tell no one jason did you say bury it no i said i
feeling weak
i said i split the difference and said uh keep what i need to get the rest away
we all lied we all lied about that
yeah the most selfless answer buried in the garden until no one's what i'm clicking on
keep what i need and keep the rest also
uh okay mickey is now blessed to the dna you've settled you're setting on an adventure do you
create a detailed list of all possible destinations that's what i said for me
ask friends for recommendations flip a coin coin. Choose a destination at random.
Let the roads be your guide.
I assume none of us said let the roads be our guide, right?
I asked for recommendations.
Yeah, do let the roads be the guide.
Okay, well, once again, Jason and I are the same person.
Yes, a running theme.
I refrain from saying that you both should have Sleepy as your dwarf.
Just fucking say it.
You called me a liar already
no i know that was me and said um my favorite charm was gonna be popcorn
really just like exposing me also when i turned you gave me duffy for one of my birthdays
you guys are mixing up what i've done wrong to each of you. You're planning a night in with friends.
Do you go karaoke, fancy dress, Disney movie marathon, games night?
Fancy dress.
A fancy dinner party.
I don't think any of us answered that.
Yeah, okay, fancy dress.
I said karaoke.
I think I said that, too.
Very limited.
And consider it for the neighbors.
Well, it's not in your apartment.
It said a night in, not a night out.
Oh, yeah, you're right.
That is weird, then.
You'd have to have a machine.
Yeah, who does karaoke at home?
That is weird.
I think they're just jazzers.
I mean, you can do it.
It's a gaming system's have them, I guess.
That is true.
Machines.
They should have been more specific.
Okay.
So we've gotten Minnie.
Oh.
You're a level-headed and tend to stay calm in stressful situations, just like Minnie,
who often takes charge of hectic situations in the House of Mouse.
Some of those old cartoons, Minnie mostly screams.
Have to take charge of a hectic situation?
Use the den!
And as we revealed in that old cartoon, the comic strip that we talked about in the Mary
Holland episode, Mickey in the 1930s said that she was a peach for looks,
but at applesauce for brains.
God, I love that.
I love that line so much.
So funny.
Princess Jasmine.
Oh, this is all new stuff.
Yeah, just like Jasmine, you accept,
you wish the best of others.
And then the last one is Grumpy.
So yeah, it's Minnie, Jasmine, Gr uh that's this is the opposite of us yes smart
selfless serious all right anyway so it's this at all let the listeners get the right hive mind
let's see listeners that we challenge you to find the weirdest combination of the three
taking these quizzes can you get hades can get No Shell? Can you get the goat that
Mickey cranks that plays Turkey in the
Straw? I took it again
and I got Doc. You are helpful. You helped Mickey
make great music. Did I get Doc last time? No.
I got Happy. But is it always the same
seven dwarf like goo?
Mishmash. There was
a human centipede
of charms.
Dwarf human centipede. Oh. Dwarf human centipede.
Horrible.
When we were talking about
Downtown Disney and we were like, yeah, it's a little thin.
Who knew we would do 40
minutes on Pandora?
Why did we ever learn this lesson?
Yeah, I know.
I'm going to stop interrupting as much.
No, please.
This is a common teen creeps mini-soda. We just take a quiz. lesson yeah i know okay i'm gonna stop interrupting as much no please i guess
this is a common teen creeps mini sodas we just take a quiz oh really yeah our our donators are
our donors are supportive sure great well this is a one uh this is 10 of the episode oh no oh god
we're gonna keep going uh well let me just briefly name check that there is a
weird array of disembodied fingers with that show how the terms can be worn so shout out to the
disembodied finger row if you go in the physical store and you can put on headphones and watch a
movie about how they're made which seems like shady and in thailand yes problematic so uh then
that's well as is everything. Blood charms. Blood charms.
People died to remind this dwarf pile. The sequel to Blood Diamond.
Blood charm.
Do we feel comfortable enough to move to?
I feel, yes, I feel comfortable.
I'm feeling juiced up.
Ah, very good.
Then off we go to what is currently in its final days, Jamba Juice.
Yes.
But what we have learned is that this entire company is rebranding to be Jamba.
Open-ended Jamba.
That is so vague.
We are all about to witness a great becoming.
Yeah.
The rebirth.
Juice is, there's a negative connotation these days for juice.
That's what I was reading. That's what the company feels. What? That juice is, there's a negative connotation these days for juice. That's what I was reading.
That's what the company feels.
What?
That juice is sugary.
We were obsessed with juice now.
Sugary.
I was explaining this to the Cedric keeper.
Yeah.
It's like fake stuff.
And there's been like, yeah, it's not so many D times.
So it's like bowl, it gets a lot more acai bowls and different, yeah, different juice.
And everything's getting more health conscious.
They're going to try to put a
little less
sugar in
their drinks
but juice
is
like
it's got a
lot of
sugar
cold pressed
juice is
everywhere now
and you can
charge ten
dollars a
bottle
I experienced
this there's a
juice place by
me and I
was like I'm
feeling kind
of I don't
remember when I
had a vegetable
let me go get a
green juice and i looked on the like website to see when they opened and it was like ten dollars
for a bottle of just single serve bottle of juice and i was like fuck this i'm gonna trade her joseph's
four dollars yeah what kind of juice was it cold pressed green juice okay moon juice i think it's called moon juice it's like this very fancy store i know
there's at least one in west hollywood on melrose and that place is bananas it's like the crystal
shop of juices there's a crazy one over in burbank that's like 10 12 15 dollar juices that have like
it's like char i mean i know that it's not that crazy charcoal
juice yeah yeah exactly you know what i'm talking about uh i will say this okay real quick about
juice and smoothies in general for years jamba juice had fooled me i probably said this on the
air before they have fooled me into thinking that it wasn't just chock full of sugar and i was just
going in there to get a dessert yeah Yeah. I was a fucking idiot.
Yeah.
It happened with vitamin water.
I've been tricked so many times in my dumb life.
Yeah, yeah.
By like, oh, well, this is a vitamin.
I'm drinking vitamins.
You would show up to like improv practices drinking,
you would either have a Jamba juice
or you'd be eating a Happy Meal.
And there was no in between.
And I was tricked by McDonald's.
I thought Happy Meals were good.
And they just, I was like, there's gotta thought happy meals were good And they just I was like
There's got to be a chemical
That makes me happy
It's like an antidepressant
Yeah
Wait happy meals now
At 25
Well what I would do is
What I would do is
I would get
Like a happy meal
Because it's a smaller portion
It's a smaller portion
So I would have just a little bit
Of the terrible food
And then
We would play some sort of game
And then we would get
We would give the toy away
As like a present in practice
Yeah Sounds very Sort of a little ritual That sounds fun But I knew that was bad food Then we would play some sort of game and then we would give the toy away as like a present in practice.
Yeah.
Sounds very. Sort of a little ritual.
That sounds fun.
But I knew that was bad food.
But I remember like being fooled by Jamba Juice and still being fooled when I learned of Jamba Juice's secret menu.
This is one of the first times I ever learned about a secret menu.
It was like 10 years ago when someone told me that they had like gummy bear flavor.
Whoa.
Fuck. Like red gummy and i was like
i remember i was at the third street promenade and i went in and i ordered it and i felt like
i was like i knew this but a special club and then i was drinking it still and i'd still be
like this is uh this is good for me you were tired of juicing red gummies at home yes
so expensive
And you have to clean it out
Like
In between
Like in the middle
Of trying to juice
Bigger pain than you think
I used to work
Next to a Jamba Juice
And I would get
The green juice
At lunch
With the boosts
The boosts never really
Did anything
If I was really hungry
I'd get a sandwich
Or a little handheld waffle
And they're not
And the thing is
The green juice And I just had a not. And the thing is the green juice, and I
just had a green smoothie with kale in it.
The green juice, if they are truly
truly healthy, shouldn't
taste that good.
The green juices, they still have a jamba
or jamba juice, taste
too good. It's like the number one ingredient is
lemonade on some of them.
And it's like kale is like the fifth
thing down and it's the only green and who knows like we're still being tricked i was drinking this green juice from
what's the company uh suja yeah suja and you pointed out after like a few months that there
weren't even that many vitamins no i looked at the vitamin content and it was like next to nothing
and it was like ten dollar bottles the fibrous stuff with all the vitamins in it when you juice. Well, yeah. It wasn't even
just no fiber. It was like
not really any vitamin A, not really
any vitamin C, K, nothing.
And that tasted bad.
That juice tasted bad. Yeah, it did. I refused
to drink it and you were on my ass
about it. You're like, just drink
green juice every day. And I was like,
no, it's a lie. We both
lament the fact that it's like
hard sometimes to make vegetables if you're trying to run and get something fast in the fridge
it's like i gotta put a little salad together and you gotta put something on so i was trying
to figure out a solution to this and i found that and i thought it was working and you pointed it
out and for a long time when you were like i'm not eating enough vegetables like we'll just get
this green juice and then finally you put me to shame you said i'm sorry there aren't that many vitamins in this but like maybe it was a really good placebo and you're
getting like placebo vitamin a maybe i don't know how it works but i just think this whole like
health thing with with smoothies and green drink in general over and over again that you just being
duped in a different way yes i'm a rube i'm an idiot i'm drinking an acai smoothie right now it's great
i really like it it's a lot less sweet it's a lot more there's like dates in it it's that kind of
sweet sure i went to and i'm not saying it's yours because they're different but i was going to
a place that has that has acai bowls and i was getting it and i was like oh my god i'm so healthy
this is delicious i'm getting a lot of fruit although that has sugar it's still fruit right it's fruit sugar however then i found out
it was basically acai flavored ice cream and i was like you've got to be fucking kidding me i can't
win i just want to eat something fast and healthy and to go i was i ordered this knowing it was the case but i ordered an acai bowl at
whole foods a few weeks ago and i looked and it was 1500 calories exactly so like it's all
everything is a scam everything's a lie everything's a lie everything's fake and i even
looked at the new jamba website and it's the same shit it's not even like they've really overhauled
and now it's like something different it's just even like They've really overhauled And now it's like Something different
It's just they're trying
To rebrand to maybe
Like anybody who has
Sort of a negative connotation
Or feels like they were
Duped by Jamba Juice
Like come back
It's all good
And it's not like it's bad
And again
In the same way
A brilliant
In the same way
That calling it
S-Y-F-Y
Redefined the sci-fi channel
Forever
Yes
Oh so it's not just
Science fiction
It's like
It could be whatever It wants to be And I know not just science fiction it's like it could be whatever
it wants to be and i know that because there's wise in it now yes the wise jamba is gonna nobody
is gonna remember like just having milkshake bloat from what they thought was healthy juice
yes they took the word juice out i mean it did become the one-stop shop for geekdom
i mean i like to think of it like that well we all were looking for a home for geekdom. I mean, I like to think of it like that. Well, we all were looking for a home
for geekdom. I mean... And we found it
at Sci-Fi. How can I let my geekdom
out? I, yeah, it's just
like I have been looking...
I've been looking to express my
geekdom. It is a world where you cannot
say that you are a dork. And I
am about ready for it to be
acceptable in this world to finally
declare that I'm a big old dork.
I know it.
I'm going to open up a competitor to Moon Juice.
It's called Dork Juice.
And it's for schlubs to get their fancy crystal juices.
Wow.
Crystals?
That's a good idea.
You mean in the way that crystals are...
Visit moonjuice.com and you'll see why I'm phrasing it that way.
And I'm a woman who loves her crystals except
somebody just forwarded me an article about how it's like on the backs of child slave labor like
digging up these crystals not done with that there's no joy to be had in this world is there
a juice that grinds up pandora charms and lets me get the good like great charm uh you know that's a good idea
except that the charms are being made by child labor yeah yeah well i assume that but uh tiffany
haddish told everyone to drink turpentine i saw that article this week she was on the red carpet
at the emmy yes that was so long ago so now everyone's been drinking turpentine listening
to this no no if you go to amazon and look up reviews of turpentine,
people are doing it as like a snake oil kind of cure-all.
Back in the day, people would drink turpentine along with radium water.
It was like, this will cure us what ails you.
It's like an article.
I saw people.
It's an old Sheridan family remedy.
It's an old Sheridan family thing.
I saw somewhat like multiple people on my Facebook feed.
I saw recently like there was an article that said like she cured her Alzheimer's by changing her diet. And it was from like evolution dash news.
Oh, I love sites like that.
And people are like, gotta look into this.
Evolution dash news dot biz.
Yeah.
Anyway.
Yikes.
Do they think it like inoculates your body to toxins what are they
thinking they think it kills toxins in your stomach what it really does is kill your stomach
the lining and the toxins that are supposed to be there are we sure it's bad for you
we better all try maybe we're being anti-duped you're gonna be reversed you're gonna get i don't believe anybody but anything anymore
anti-vaxxers going to turpentine thinking that that's the better solution it's possible but
maybe it is uh maybe i'm a trip maybe they'll re-after rebrand again and in 2022 they're jamba
turpentine it's like i saw that anti-vax tweet where it was like some guy posting a photo of this like six-year-old crying, holding a card, saying goodbye from his first grade class.
And they were like, this is a little boy being forced to leave the first grade because his mother doesn't believe in vaccinations.
This is what you're doing to children.
And I was like, what the?
And so I looked into it.
And from 2017 to April 2019,
it was purely a cryptocurrency pusher.
Twitter account.
Yeah, a Twitter account.
All it did was promote a certain kind of cryptocurrency
and then in april 2019 there was a hard turn and now it's nothing but an anti-vax account
and like this is a bot this is a bot and we're all getting mad at it but it's not real
nothing is real and you can find like you just look for that kid and there's like a
he's like a stock photo actor you could find him a little sailor suit like two days prior my theory is it was like the last day of first grade this
kid was gonna miss all of his classmates it was some mom in illinois posting it on facebook and
now it's a like tool of politics jamba's rebrand is that they are a suitable replacement for
vaccinations drink this instead hey moms don't inject poison into your
children uh jamba jamba don't be number one be patient zero that's a good slogan yeah i like
okay i don't want to trash job too much kind of think of it as a good dessert that you might get
some vitamins if you don't want to milkshake if you're in more of a sherbet move,
this is your place to go.
I eat a ton of ice cream.
Who am I to criticize?
It's the being tricked part that sucks.
Yes, that's what I'm saying.
You can get just carrot juice from there if you want.
There's a couple options sometimes where I go,
well, you are getting a pure juice experience.
You can get a wheatgrass shot.
I was about to say, as soon as I realized that Well, you are getting like a pure juice experience. You can get like a wheatgrass shot and they do it there.
I was about to say, as soon as I realized that it was just sugar,
I would go into Jamba Juice and I'd buy like a $3 double wheatgrass shot.
And you got a little orange afterward.
And I, you know, you see them take just straight up wheatgrass
and put it through a juicer and that's what comes out.
So what if that's like comes out so so that's
what if that's like suja and it's you're getting none of the vitamin k that you think you're
getting you fools there's lawns everywhere in los angeles free for the grass lawns i happen
how about this maybe we have to give this location some credit because at the disneyland resort
there is not there are not a lot of fast places to get something
that might be beneficial to you and not super unhealthy that's true a lot of things are
unhealthy there but if you're like i've been i've been at disneyland for three days and i'm on my
way to something is there something quick that is not bad for me that i could you could do it
yes and it's it's probably It's not bad That it's there
And you could have
There's a
I forget what it's called
But there's like a
Yogurt type
Strawberry granola
You know
300
A parfait
Sort of yes
But it's called
Something different
It's like a
Strawberry topper
Or something
It's called something fun
So like a parfait
Yes
It's very similar
To a parfait
Get his ass
No I'm getting
Jamba's ass Yeah I forget what it's very similar to a parfait. Get his ass. No, I'm getting Jamba's ass.
Yeah, I was just going to name it.
I forget what it's called.
But that's not a terrible thing to have in the morning.
And you get a little bit of protein from the granola.
So it's not like, I'm not trying to trade.
It's not completely like you're, there's benefits to it.
And you know what else they have?
Oat milk.
Oat milk is here.
Several places in the store.
It says oat milk is here. They are pushing the oat milk. The is here several places in the store it says oat milk is here they are they are
pushing the oat milk humane option they're also going to start uh rolling out pea protein
protein made from peas vegan protein yes so they're trying to push a little it's called pea
protein it's made from peas you know urine protein oh i know it not urine protein. Oh, I know. It's just weird.
Unless you've been sending them all your pea samples, and then they're like, well, we got to do something with it.
I hope they're using it for something.
You have proteins in your pea, right?
I don't know if it's good when you do, but.
There's got to be protein in your pea.
The Malive and Water World.
That's true.
Bad proteins.
All right.
It's just like, as you want these places to be sort of
magical in their displays and elevated because they're near a theme park yes that this place's
biggest boasting point is oat milk is here here's what i want to say about oat milk which i fully
support i'm trying to get off buying things in the house that are inhumane to animals.
And so I was buying oat milk.
Then I was sick all week and my stomach hurt.
And it's because of the oat milk.
You really think that?
So you're making the assessment?
I'm fine today and it's the first day I haven't had oat milk in weeks.
I tried some of the oat milk.
And you were feeling sick and i felt
pretty sick and then got really sort of sick stomach what i'm hoping is it's just that i've
been buying brands that add sugar and maybe some other stuff to make it creamier i don't think i
was feeling bad when i was drinking oatly a specific brand oatly is whereas with silk's oat yeah and planet planet
oh dang i forget the name of it but oatly only is the good one maybe oat yeah what was it called
it's silk it's the silk brand right oat yeah oat yeah might not be as good Yeah I was feeling A little bit sick on that
And then the worst one
Was this week's
Planet
Something oat milk
Alright well if you
Are a listener
I have two things
But it might
I'm sure it's different
For everybody
I was gonna say
If you're a listener
I got an Americano
At a cafe
And I tried the oat milk
In it
And it sucked
Like it didn't mix well
If you're a listener
I have two questions
For the listeners
Number one
Tell us your oat milk experience.
Number two,
do you have some sort of green drink that can truly supplement me just having
to cram lettuce in my mouth or spinach?
Well,
remember,
I did find that one that does have all the vitamins.
It's like just a juice in one of those glass bottles and like a sprouts or
whatnot um but it was so gloopy oh yeah we got that i just couldn't right i gotta go back and
it made me gag but it had all of the it had all of my issue i got a packet of pea protein like
mix and dumped it it was yeah it's too gloopy protein this is the adultiest episode
we gotta bring it home uh so it's planet oat oat milk so i don't want to disparage these brands
yes entirely i'm just saying they didn't agree with me so if suddenly you're not feeling well
consider the possibility that it's the oat milk you're drinking try a different brand if it's
not working for you perhaps you should not say to your body oat milk is here yeah so not necessarily
but it unfortunately it is on the aspas as cpas uh what is it called as as pca as
jeez as the animal thing yeah yeah um it is on their list of humane
Sure well that's good
Humane concerns
Probably come into the next place
As well
Sephora
Talking so much
About each of those stores
Yeah I know
We're not even there
You're here because you like sephora i love
sephora and i was listening to the the uh city work saga and mike made reference to like you
go to sephora and he's like mom i want to look for toys and yeah we do split off in that yeah
we should hear your side of it uh what's what's in there i'm afraid to go into the makeup store.
Well, makeup.
Only makeup. Can I eat any of it?
It looks pretty good.
Makeup and skincare and hair care.
Is there male stuff in there?
It's mostly geared toward female, right?
Here's the thing.
Yes, but also it's bullshit to think that men can't use any of the products just because they're not
gunmetal gray right but i'm saying like like is it all marketed makeup stripes under my eyes
that's it because yeah because because yeah but they're all for all right genders and skins and
faces but it is marketed specifically for the female just because
that's the general that's who's generally wearing makeup but when you go into a sephora now as you're
seeing all genders and all sure um everybody wearing some impressive makeup that i couldn't
do myself or i'd need to practice i will say we were into sephora and i like the displays a lot
like i like because they've got a lot of colors going on there's a we were just in macy's the other day and i was really trying to jason's
checking his email and there's emails from pizza hud jason right now it was something else
boring the top one there is a serious one could not be a more of a there was a serious one there was a serious one I accidentally archived and had to find
real quick
brief anecdote
when we were recording
public domain theater which we have brought
out brought back on the teen creeps
patreon only but
when we're doing public domain theater
oh my podcast my second podcast
I had with Kelly Nugent who is my
co-host on Teen Creeps,
where we read a short story from the public domain, a cold read out loud and respond to
it in real time.
And they're very silly.
We did an episode we recorded with this New York comedian who came in and anytime she
wasn't reading, she was checking her phone.
So we didn't release her episode because it was just all this dead
space and she never noticed or said anything and so fine fucker so dm dm you and you'll tell
the listener who that was i actually won't i won't burn her down my i accidentally archived
my car and i was like oh i have to find put this where i can find it to deal with lena it was just i wouldn't have noticed it would i didn't have a problem but it's just an ios
when you archive something it just goes to the next thing that's why it popped up and she wasn't
texting to be like oh this is going a little longer i'll meet you later blah blah blah because
she did have something right afterwards she was looking at twitter to be fair maybe she was looking
at pizza hut's twitter maybe and there were deals involved maybe she was looking at Pizza Hut's Twitter. Maybe. And there were deals involved. Maybe.
She had to get it fast. Okay.
This is the real
let's move on. With Sephora,
I stayed outside at Sephora
because I'm kind of sensitive to scents.
There's a lot going on.
There's a lot going on and I had a
stomachache because I eat it too much.
Do you eat it? I eat it
too much and I got a tummy ache and we'll get into that i eat it too much and i got a tummy
ache um we'll get into that in a future episode but i stayed outside the lights can also be a
little overwhelming it's very bright very bright i was thinking like when i was in that sephora i
was thinking maybe if it was i do think it's like if they had more hair care and skincare they'd
have to ease me a little bit more into the different departments because i think i have oh go go ahead i uh that i don't i'm interrupting but all of the skincare
is mostly on the walls it's like okay the walls have skincare perfume hair care and then if you
head straight or no if you head straight toward the back maybe that's where they keep perfume now
got it because i was like i almost feel a overwhelmed. And I think it's probably too in there is like, I have a feeling of like, as a child,
feeling like this is not, and nothing in here is for me.
So I sort of check out.
But I was trying to be very present in the moment of the Sephora and trying to enjoy
just from an aesthetic point of view.
And the display, well, that's the thing, you know, we struggle with every day.
Like Jason was having, struggling with it just just now you're the one checking your email you were checking your
you've all always been a hundred percent present on a podcast please yeah right come on it was
right there i had to take it uh so yeah so i was looking and i was like i think i also
feel a little bit like i just need a little way in and i don't know if it's just like the old i
need a i think skincare would be the way in right i i don't know if it's like i need like a paul
bunion type man in the corner beckoning me over because you know i'm such a you know the manly animatronic is that what you mean oh i would
love it at paul bunyan animatronic in a sephora but he's like hot paul bunyan he's like kind of
a club raver paul bunyan he's wearing a little eyeliner and lipstick yes a little shimmer
highlighter yes and he's got a babe the blue ox who's like dressed in like sort of like a sparkly
vest maybe and they're like kind of going
out on the town a lot of mascara tons of mascara on babe the blue ox uh so yeah so i was trying to
figure out like what yeah because i i like uh i like the skincare i like the hair i like to try
stuff out i have i just uh subscribe not subscribe but i got uh shampoo that i custom made for myself
because of the podcast uh not
because of the podcast because i wanted to get free points for my marvel card trader game but
that's another discussion for another podcast that we haven't run over but i i was very intrigued by
it so i like all of this stuff i just feel like i needed i need like a long time to get to figure
out where my spots are a lot of people use kills is not cruelty free
it's not if i i have made like five things this episode that's a new thing of mine ever since i
did jackie johnson's natch butte she's very super vegan in all of her products yes makeup skincare food etc um and so ever since then i have really tried to
stick to cruelty free skincare and makeup and hair care um and so i have a page bookmarked on my
phone because you can like you can add a specific website to your phone.
I don't know what you'd call it.
What do you mean?
Like the same way you have an app.
Oh, an extension. On your phone.
Yeah, you can just like a shortcut.
Yeah.
At crueltyfreekitty.com.
And there's a list I check every time I go out.
And Kiehl's is not cruelty free.
I see.
You know your boyfriend eats 90 percent
taco bell mcdonald's right i am aware okay it's very hard to cut out entirely i'm not vegan i ate
taco bell last night all black beans baby no meat at all and here's the thing it's like food it's
harder you do you need to eat but you don't need to buy products that are tested on animals it's
just unnecessary and the thing is keels is are tested on animals. It's just unnecessary. And the thing is, Kiehl's is not tested on animals, but they sell in mainland China.
And in mainland China, it is by law, they have to test it on animals before you can sell theirs.
They don't test it on animals generally.
But anyway, I'm going very long.
What a country.
Also, I'm ready for them to replace all the fast food With fake meat
I'm ready for it I don't care
It's already kind of fake
It's just part corpse
Is there any particular difference is that an especially good
Sephora we aren't that far from other
Sephora locations
It's very standard
It's a little smaller than some
I would say
Like the one at the Americana oh yeah it's pretty small but
then there are some sephoras in um jc pennies those are very small but you get pretty much
the essentials that you would need sure um i'm all sad they killed off dupars the diner in this
area the diner a diner scene in boogie nights uh yeah and now it's a sephora
yeah that one that one's a bummer but i love it
um yeah i always want to go to sephora i browse it like it's a bookstore i would stay in there
for like an hour straight and i'm obsessed with buying, realizing it makes my skin worse, and then returning it and buying a different one.
I have so many points, like VIB beauty points.
VIB?
VIB, like very important beauty insider.
I forget.
So, I get free two-day shipping on all of my orders because that's how much i buy at sephora and so
i have 2270 beauty points saved up and you can like buy stuff with your points and i saved up
so much that i am for the next 10 days entering a 25 000 sweepstakes and i can buy five entries
per day using my points oh nice that's what i'm up to
or mega products i think cash i think it's a cash prize wow he came back and reported that's what
happened i'm sure like mike will update everybody if i suddenly win 25 000 podcast is over yeah no
we're moving to the cayman islands we can live off that 25 000 for life
yeah right so that'll be great yeah it wouldn't merely pay off half my debt at all
oh man um hmm yeah big sephora fan yeah well that's good um i'm gonna get into sephora point debt that's the no that's
yeah um pay off my sephora debt do you is it do you is this like a uh what i painted is it
accurate to say that yeah you guys will like split michael go to well i used to go to d street
i used to go to d street when it existed at Downtown Disney, and I'd go in and see what Marvel character thing they had
or what hipstery Disney parks thing,
and then I'd come back.
So that would happen often.
But from now on, I'm going to get in that Sephora.
I'm going to see what applies to me, what I could use.
It's important that you take Disneyland time away
and devote at least 45 minutes per visit. I want to say important that you take disneyland time away yes and devote like at least
45 minutes i want to grow as a human i will say that i i try to only go into a sephora when i
need something because inevitably i will buy something if i go in right yeah um and i always More than I wanted to as well. And as much as I'm constantly buying skin care stuff, you 100% have better skin than I do.
Why am I doing this?
It's a trick.
It's a good question.
I do have lotion.
I put stuff on my face.
I have creams and lotion that I put on my face.
But don't you just wash your face with like bar soap?
Bar soap, yes.
I do do that.
Oh, that's it?
And that does work.
Why am I doing this?
That does work for me.
I'm spending so much money that I don't need to spend.
That is the thing with all of this stuff.
But it's fun.
It is fun.
At first, it was not fun to look at.
It feels like a magic potion, all of this stuff.
It's like you, because I still have that.
I'm like, you know, I'm going to find a thing that makes my hair just the perfect.
And you can get better and worse stuff for sure.
But it's like nothing's actually going to really make it perfect.
Unless you're buying like $500 face creams.
Maybe that's what we need to do.
We should buy that.
I'm approaching.
I am buying more and more expensive stuff.
And not like amounts, but like the product itself is
edging on way too expensive um um there are these like vogue is releasing these videos on youtube
of celebrities walking you through their skincare product routine and like um what's her face olivia wild's skin care routine is like
four things and she's a big snob about it being only four things clearly she's like judging the
even the concept of the video itself and then live tyler has like a 25 to 40 product routine
and she says that her dad is who got her into it
he's obsessed with skin care of course he does look pretty good he looks oh he's so
fucking hot he looks pretty good when i look at him i think his skin looks good that is what i'm
saying i'm maybe not saying that like it can't change your genetics but it does affect your skin
horrible he looks like shit. Well that's the
wrinkles and drug abuse.
And lack of
soft tissue in his face
which is not his fault. I gotta find a picture of him now.
But the actual skin itself.
Make me want Steven.
I didn't. There was nothing.
I'm not attracted to Steven Tyler.
No one said hot. I just respect
his beauty game. I didn't say Steven Tyler is so fuckable now or anything. I'm not attracted to Steven Tyler. No one said hot. I just respect his beauty game.
I didn't say Steven Tyler is so fuckable now or anything.
I'm going to say, keep going, Scott.
I want to see where this rabbit hole ends.
I mean, the scarves alone for me are a turn off.
What's that?
The scarves alone for me are a turn off.
Too many scarves.
Well, the hair is worse than the skin.
Let's be, you know let me let me
be uh i just think for a 70 year old guy all the pictures of him he looks good for steven tyler
sure yeah like i don't know unless he's botoxing or something i mean there's some lighting involved
in here but he looks like steven tyler alive for a corpse yeah Yeah, he looks better than Keith Richards.
Again.
The bar you're setting.
The bar that is one millimeter from the ground.
We're talking skin alone.
We're talking drugs.
He has a distinct glow about him.
Yes.
That's what happens when you're living it up while you're going down.
I thought you were going to say living on the edge, which would have also worked.
It also works, yeah. But also just the routine is fun but am i too lazy to wash my face at night yes i don't wash my face do you do have any sort of facial uh routine never moisturize
sure i use um cetaphil usually and not cruelty free great um i've also been trying the trader joe's uh face
wash yeah it's pretty much the same and then usually i use some sort of sunscreen that is
moisturizing yeah moisturizer in it sunscreen is the most important skincare right product you can
use either that i like hawaiian tropic again smells
uh very particular about but the hawaiian tropic either the moisturizing sunscreen or yeah it's
coconutty or the hawaiian tropic sport which isn't really moisturized but still strong sunscreen
i try to get in the routine i'm very bad at building daily routines i'm very it's very
easier for me to be driving away from my house going like oh i didn't do anything to my face today like i think the beard having a beard is a thing where
it's moisturizing is very important depending on what the weather is and depending on yeah i'm
definitely bad at that because like you can see sometimes it's dry as shit sometimes i'll forget
yeah and it gets real dry and i have i have i have stuff in my car i have stuff upstairs
anyway you don't find if you leave it in your car,
the bottle goes like.
It's in a little glass container.
Oh, glass.
Interesting.
Well, do we have any listeners left?
Not Steven Tyler.
We lost him a while ago.
Do you think we lost him at the beauty?
Is that what you're saying?
No, no.
It was Jason and I discussing our beards
is when I was like.
Why would that be? I'm kidding. kidding they love us they love the show they'll listen they'll clearly
listen to anything you're having a great time in this in the downtown disney ordeal level two
stage one stage one you get recognized everywhere we go which i'm just to me because this is not a visual medium.
The fact that they know what you look like so well
astounds me.
Lindsay gets mad when someone recognizes me.
I'm horribly jealous.
I'm insanely jealous.
Listen to Team Creep.
I need validation.
Watch Infinity Train.
Also what people do sometimes.
I'm important.
You're the first person to just like barrel into their own plugs
Yeah
I'm a selfish person
Who is trying to fill a void
And sometimes people know you from the podcast
Or at Extended Universe
That's the thing
Is when they see you then they're like oh and you're Lindsay
And I'm like thank you
But also this is not how i want it
to happen i'm flashing to the beginning of the episode where you were introduced as you know her
from living here yep that played right into this and speaking of the podcast the ride the universe
known in this universe well sure uh an item is appearing for us As we finish this level
Well you know
I feel like it would make
Perfect sense
If
Because we got all the stones
Last time
Yeah yeah
Probably getting some stone
Like some of the Pandora
Charms
Sure
Would probably make sense
So here this item must be
Being sent to us
From the beyond
By the statue keeper right now
And it's
Oat milk
It's a jug of oat milk
Uh oh Do not bring that Into my home Okay Well we'll keep the Beyond by the Satchel Keeper right now and it's oat milk. It's a jug of oat milk.
Do not bring that into my home.
Okay.
Well, we'll put it
in Jason's satchel.
If we had that
seven dwarfs charm,
we could like make a
boss choke on it.
Throw it into his
mouth.
Yeah, but we don't.
We don't.
We have oat milk.
Great.
I hope it's not one
of the oat milks
that makes you
I hope it's oatly.
We have your charm,
but you don't know.
We're not going to
use that to fight.
No, that's my charity.
Keep shake.
Keep shake.
Keep shake.
Well, all right.
I guess with that, we survived Downtown Disney or Deal Level 2.
I do.
I love that I'm here for Sephora.
Not sector one.
I said stage one.
Most of the other two stores.
Well, who knew there'd be so much about Pandora?
There's always so much.
Hey, if Sephora would offer some more quizzes,
let me know what Disney...
I'm sure that there are quizzes.
But there's no Sephora.
Also, there's no Sephora IP we know about.
There's no extended Sephora universe.
Sephora friends.
As far as I know.
No robot.
I don't look into those things the way that you do
though i'm always looking for my fandom is very superficial uh we want friends and uh what are
you checking right now quizzes oh okay there's a whole there's here are the quizzes foundation
skincare hair concealer mascara fragrance lip i can't answer zero to hero for any of those.
No.
I guess, okay.
So, we survived it.
We're moving on to stage two.
Lindsay K. Tate survived, I guess, this specific thing, the attention to Disney or Deal.
You already covered it, but also.
I'm doing it again.
Yeah, doing it again.
Plug again.
I'm doing it again.
And if you see both of
us don't just say lindsay it's fine i'm kidding it's exciting when they know me too instead of
just like and who is this here with um it's like that scene from a league of their own where it's
like this is our daughter dotty and this is our other daughter dotty's sister um yeah so i have a podcast with my co-host kelly nugent called teen creeps we
review uh teen horror from the 80s and 90s like christopher pike and arl stein and i am a writer
on the cartoon network show infinity train uh first season if that's what we're calling it.
What are we calling it? It's as confusing as stages and levels.
So yeah,
the first 10 episodes of the show were released.
Go find them there.
You can buy them on iTunes,
Amazon,
Google.
Streaming?
I believe you can find them streaming
on the Cartoon Network site.
You do have to have a cable login for that, I think.
But fuck you, it's worth it.
And there will be more.
That's all I can say, that there will be more Infinity Train.
I can't say in what form.
But please, please watch it.
I'm very proud of that show.
And it is a dream to work on.
And your Twitter?
Oh, my Twitter, LindsayKTai on all the social medias.
And please, please, please, this is maybe the most important one.
Please check out my work when I walk through behind the podcast and laugh.
So like keep an ear out for me being somewhere present in the room when you record the show and shouting stuff
when someone says something wrong from all that that you do so much more than live here which is
more than i can say about edwin oh he does a lot how dare you look at his reaction. He's mad. He always seems a little nonplussed.
We're doing the thing.
As I say, we're doing the thing that is not.
Mike's doing the thing where he doesn't get to hang out with Mike.
He stayed by my side this whole recording.
Yes, he did.
Yeah, the chair the entire time.
You survived, Puck.
That's right, Edwin.
