Welcome to what I promise you will be the shittiest podcast the ride you've ever heard. I'm Scott Gairdner and I'm sorry in advance. Joined by Mike Carlson who I assume is similarly contrite. Oh yeah I am contrite and I'm thinking about what you just said and I guess that's true but I also that gives me a freedom you know when you say this is going to be so bad I kind of actually relaxed for the first time ever when I started doing like a recording. So I go, wow, that's great. Because you've had the pressure of this could be the best one or it could be the shittiest one if we aren't careful. Right.

But, you know, this I feel I think this is good when we're looking for good news here. And I think this kind of like takes the pressure off because there'll be that discussion as time goes on. What was the worst episode of the show? Let's just say it. It's this. It's this one. It's going to be this. It's this one.

We're doing it because it's going to be a couple of things. It's going to be short. We are missing a host. It's on Zoom. We've got bummer stuff to talk about. And I'm really confident a baby is going to start screaming soon okay you know there's a door here but i think that baby's gonna i think that baby's gonna power over that i think you are gonna hear the baby so i think it's good that i

weren't okay yeah well let's see if the baby comes in on the mic uh it'll be interesting to know because that'll be that'll be baby's first podcast recording as well so it'll be something that'll be important to capture as well i think uh yes i think it'll be treasured by me and the listeners when you hear a just a just a faint but you'll bring that look yeah you'll bring it up i'm saying like when when the baby is older and you'll say look at this is the first time you ever podcasted. That'll be nice. I hope to God the last. If I have anything to do, if I raise this kid right, it's going to be the last.

The only job left. I can't control the tides of the business. Yeah, 30 years from now, that's the only job that's going to be left as podcaster. So I think we should just accept it right now. Yeah, and everyone will need seven of them to make ends meet, as opposed to the mere six of currently. That's right. Yeah, look, hey, I'm happy to be talking to you, Mike. And we're just doing this as kind of a little check-in to explain where we're at.

So, you know, we usually, I specifically look forward to the first episode of the year being like full of energy and well rested and maybe like a big ride or a new ride, you know, to come back guns blazing. And right now I feel like if I could talk about I believe this ride closed Kingda Ka. I think Kingda Ka is down. The one that's just kind of it's a launch and then in New Jersey where you just go way up a big hump and then down the other side. You know how sometimes they'll launch that ride and it won't make it and it just goes all the way back down to the station and like, whoops. That's how I feel about the 2025 launch is a real Kingda Ka fail on multiple levels. I think we have to put it in roller coaster terms so people understand.

Yeah, that's our audience understands that kind of talk. So that thank you for doing that. That's all they understand. There's no other metaphor that would make sense. Right. The very relatable King to car. Right. Right.

Of course. Which R.I.P. King to car. But anyway, that's a complicated and stupid way to say that things are crazy. Our city is on fire. And that has kind of prevented us from doing things the way that we'd like to be doing things. Now, the big headline is that the three of us are all safe with all that. Mike, you went down to San Diego, not due to any particularly strong danger, but just a precaution and a more comfortable

place to be. Is that a correct assessment? That is a correct assessment. We certainly live by a big bunch of mountains, and the air was bad, so we said, let's get out of here. And we were very lucky. We were very lucky. Yeah, yeah.

You've got a place to go, absolutely. And yeah, because not everybody does and to have family close it's been it's been really key so we're happy to say the three of us are safe I when we just posted something maybe on on X

it makes me nauseous still to say X somebody we said something that maybe alluded to how the week is going and I just wanted to how the week is going, and I just wanted to read this. This is from the user Diddy Thump, and I thought this was a pretty good little burn of us.

Looking forward to the presumably entirely normal and uneventful evacuation process that all three of you had. Now, we did not really all evacuate, so it's not necessarily accurate, but this is a this is a listener who's like worried about us like go going to lunch right and i think correctly so he's heard the tales of woe just to like go from a hotel to a mall uh and what happens but is he now are we but can we prove did he thump wrong though or was it fairly orderly i was i mean look again we were lucky we just sort of were getting out so it wasn't anything you know there was people had to leave at the drop of a hat

um so everything was fine i will say i stopped at in buena park on the way down here which i think is actually smooth it's like that's that's again that's like, that's, again, that's a nice, that's a luxury to be in Buena Park, the greatest city in the world. And I ate at Portillo's. Well, it's always, under any circumstances, it's a luxury, but especially now, now more than ever. But I did eat at Portillo's.

And yes, I took all the essential stuff with me, but I also did take Belly Bomb off of the shelf, my prized NECA toy, that I believe looks a little phallic uh some people don't but I do but he's one of the greatest that was a prize possession that you took was belly bomb I looked around the office and I said let me just take a couple things and throw it in the bag I didn't I didn't pack everything up but I said you know what I took you know the basics and I took belly bomb and i was right

to do it well what are the i think we've been seeing some stuff about the uh the six p's of evacuation there's there's passports and there's pets and there's personal uh belongings but i think the seventh p is uh penis resembling toys i think that's right yes i think that is correct and i should make my own list uh to say yeah get a uh get a penis resembling toy and then get a beef and cheddar croissant if you can make manage it in buena park um but well wait a minute portillo's portillo is the ac damn you're right wow wow and ninth points, make sure that your points are safe. Yes. Which I guess means bring any credit cards that contain, I mean, the points really aren't on the card.

But just make sure that your points are in order because you might need them more than ever. Right. Now, in this digital age, you don't necessarily need a card that contains all your landry's points or your jersey shore shore points that's all on your phone usually but just make sure you have that in order yes that's important yeah oh and if you don't oh my god well and again you know a couple episodes ago i gave you guys jersey mike's gift cards which are physical items and now like now the fire has taught me don't ever do that again make sure that it's only digital. Because what if those went?

What if the Jersey Mike's? What if those are shore points that are no more points? That's very good. Yes, you're right. I think I left the unused gift card at home. Now I'm thinking about it. You were mentioning your baby was going to make its presence known on your end. My daughter is just trying to open the door as if it's like a serial killer trying to get in the room, like fighting for her.

As a core raptor. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If it needs to happen. Again, that's why I wanted to take the pressure off. If suddenly there is some mic fumbling, if she wants to come in and actually, you know, hey, look, everybody could use a cheer up. If she wants to give her thoughts about Belly Bomb on mic, I think that would be a cheer up for everybody. I think I made it through mine. I believe the crying was distant enough and maybe he's gone. So, yeah, that threat has passed, if not all have.

Okay, so keep your eyes on the door. Here's the other theme park-y thing I wanted to mention as this is all going down is that, like, again, I think probably we wanted to, the plan was like, well, you know what? New year, new ride.

We can come out with Tiana. We could finally do Tiana. And, you know, I had this cursed pass that I've been blacked out on for a month, but I'm like, okay, so the first, you know, I had this cursed past that I've been blacked out on for a month, but I'm like, okay, so the first, you know what, I'm going to schedule this for early January when everything should be safe and fine and normal, and I'll get down and do Tiana, and then we could talk about Tiana, and then, like, the day that I had planned for months, of course, is when all the shit went down.

But, so that blows that season premiere. But, you know, Bright Side in the midst of darkness, you know, as we all know, Disneyland has the no-show policy. You only get three no-shows. And I wasn't sure enough if I was going to do it to cancel the night before. Because as far as we knew, it was like, it's going to be windy. Get ready for some wind.

And I don't even know how crazy this was going to get, including apparently the mayor and a lot of other important people didn't seem to know or do anything. So anyway, I was getting worried. Obviously, my biggest fear in all this was getting one of three no-shows, which do you know the brackets on that? How long is the no-show period? Is it a month or is it 90?

Well, you're saying between no-shows? Because I understand it, and I may be wrong, so somebody correct me. My understanding is that you still just keep your no-shows, and once you get three, then you're banned for 30 days. Now, that could be wrong, but this is off the top of my head. I think that— I got 90 in my head. I think there's a 90 in there. Maybe it's that you can't do it in 90 days, and then you're banned for 30, or is it you can't do it within 30, and then you're banned for 90?

I don't think you're banned for 90, but I could be wrong. I should look that up. That's a reasonable prison sentence. It really that's like a yeah uh i guess i'll look uh uh because i accidentally i even mentioned this in the show i've accidentally given my sister a second no show i was supposed to cancel a reservation on a family trip and i forgot her it didn't go through or something and she was like i don't want another no show on my record and i i remember looking in the morning and i still had her on there and i went i i fucked up i screwed this up so now she has two so she's close you inflicted a no show onto your own family yes this is how do you oh boy how are you living with yourself i don't know

it's not easy it's not, but I'm doing my best. I'm in a lot of therapy. You'll reconcile with this in your autumn years. This is going to be more of an article search, I think, to find out exactly the details on this. Well, I'll say this while you're looking. Here's the good news is that for that stretch of time because uh so much of the city was on fire the disney corporation was exceedingly generous and they overturned all of the no-shows for at least a day or two so i do not i'm like your your your sister who

is less fortunate i am uh i have zero of three right now and And I just want to say to the Disney company, you know, it's been a tough time. And I see you and I recognize what you did for me. And, you know, there's that quote, Mr. Rogers, you know, look for the helpers. And I'm thinking about that more than ever. You know, nothing helps me more than having a blemish removed from my Disney permanent record. So thanks for the help. Walt would be proud. You have a clean record.

This is so hard to find. I mean, I surely got it in an email because they're, you know, now you get it. Like, okay, hey, welcome to your Disneyland trip awaits. All your friends are going to be there, Mickey and Minnie. But do be aware that if you are a no-show, Mickey will remember it. And he will mention it the next day. If and when you were allowed to come back into the park, Mickey will bring it up.

He will whisper it into your ear. It's like, hey, happy to have you, but just so you know, we know. Just so you know, we know. We remember. You know what? I'm finding some interesting details here. Like adults must replace the photo that's attached to their pass every 10 years so to make sure you have yeah aspect to it yes apparently and you must replace your child's photo every three years

that's interesting i didn't know that kids kids kids grow right you know the three-year-old is not a six-year-old and they got to keep tabs on them. Right. Interesting. So 10 years. I think I've got a new, I guess I got a new one in 2021, probably. So 2031 is when I'm going to have to, I'm going to really have to make sure I take care of myself so I look good in my 2031 Disneyland annual pass.

Finally, a motivator. Oh, my God. I mean, now the thing is, I mean, like general fitness is going to help you with that. But really, you're kind of only dealing with it in most shoulders and above. So if you want your calves to get real flabby, that's fine. You could gain 100 pounds if it's all leg. But you're going to want to keep the shoulders and up look and which means like which is also skin care it's exfoliating it's trimming that beard right uh it's it's really it's

it's it's it's all upper stuff yeah so maybe even if maybe i could just wear like a like a mission impossible mask in 2031 too if i'm not happy with how i look and it'll like a handsomer I guess I have to wear that then every time I go to the park so that wouldn't be a very smart thing to do but maybe I'll really match every time they scan you yeah yeah I'll get like a makeup artist though to do something to my face before I get that photo taken just so I can look good in that pet in that photo because that's something I care about I cannot find the answer to this question. I'm looking through these GD details, and it's really hard to find. I don't feel like doing it.

I don't feel like opening a tab. I don't feel like doing it either. I want to put it down. Not having a third person is harder. I'm happy. Thank you for going for it. Again, I look to the helpers. Thank you for helping trying to decipher the no-show policy,

but I don't think I'm going to do it. Although, as I said, shittiest episode ever if there was ever one to just go blank for four minutes it's just silence and then like click click click i don't know if you're making that click on mic no i don't think so no okay well just like the baby okay well maybe it's not the shittiest episode. We're only recording what we need to be recording. Yeah. But here's the thing, though. We wanted to have a little fun and goof around a little bit. But there is, of course, like, you know, stuff is terrible.

It is tough in the city. Everyone, we were saying before we started recording, everyone at least is a friend of a friend of somebody who has lost their home or evacuated. Yeah, lost everything. And everyone's just going through it. Yeah, yeah. It's crazy. Everybody's going through it.

It's all palpable, and it's just, you know, like the mood ain't great regardless of your situation. If you are a person who has been struggling through this or something terrible happened or you know somebody our hearts go out to you and if there's any way we can help or signal boost anything anybody needs please let us know i don't know what we can do uh i mean we look forward to making you laugh uh in the near future but god knows if we can like uh use the socials to uh to do any good or spread the word. I wanted to put that out there if we could. Here's the other thing, and there is

no easy way to transition into this, but as all of this was going on unexpectedly, and unfortunately, Jason's dad, Michael Sheridan, passed away. And we don't want to say too much about that.

We'll leave it to Jason if he wants to address that any further on the show at some point. But mainly for now, we're heartbroken for him and for the Sheridans and for Jane, who's joining the family. And our hearts go out to them and thoughts and condolences. Anything you want to add to that, Mike? You don't have to, but we're thinking about our buddy. That's the point. That's exactly what you said, and it's, as you said, heartbreaking and in the middle of all this chaos

and sadness that was happening already. So, yeah, needless to say, Jason could take some time away from the show, and he will be back. But, yeah, whenever he feels like he's ready to come back and goof around uh obviously he takes as much time as he wants and we'll hopefully see him soon but yeah yeah that's that's the that's the point hopefully you know the the thing we can offer is uh goofing around with him again because we'll miss it while we're not doing that with him.

And I mean, all that being said, let me just like shift to here's the plan. Here's what's going on in general. You're right about Jason. And with all this, I think we've conveyed through all of this how nuts everything is. And thus, here's what we've

decided and why we're, we're checking in. We are going to take the rest of January off on the main feed. Uh, just, you know, collect ourselves, uh, get back in the same place, focus on our families, give Jason the space he needs. Uh, we feel like we are not currently in a place to do the, the, uh, quality of show that we want to be doing and the quality of what the eight episodes a month we end up doing that we want. So we figure if we take a little time, we'll get there. So that's the plan. It is our hope and our goal to be back on the main feed in February.

Things could change, but that's the hope, and this is what we're going to try here. So I guess we're asking for your patience and your understanding as we navigate these choppy waters. And it's unfortunate. We're sorry that it is this way because we were just off for three weeks and that we're extending it out. But hey, we didn't expect any of this, and I don't know.

Hopefully you understand. Yeah. And then we're still doing the other Patreon episodes that are coming out. There's an episode that we've already recorded with Jason that's coming out. Oh, yes. The Club 3. Yes. There's a very fun Club 3 episode about the Space Mountain opening.

So that happened already. And then you and I, i yes that's the thing we as far as second gate and club three you know we want to make good on those commitments to everybody who so kindly supports the show over there so you and i'll figure out some stuff to do yeah we'll screw around and do some do some low pressure fun and yeah there's some fun ideas we have hits coming yeah there's some fun ideas happening we just have to reorganize and get it together, and then those will be out in January. Yeah, yeah, right on. So that's the thing.

Sorry. So if you are missing us and you need a good boy fix, things will still be happening on the second gate in Club 3, which is at patreon.com slash podcast the ride. As we said, Jason, probably out for a little bit. We, you know, we'll just, well, yeah, the door is open whenever he, whenever he wishes. We'll be looking forward to his return. And just, also, I just like, thank you again, anyone who's supported the show over the years. Like, that's just, especially in times of crisis, that is a meaning very, really means

a lot to us, I think, in more than one way. No kidding. Yeah. This is, I know, this is making me flash to the, you know, like addressing, so there's, you know, there's this pandemic that you might have heard. Like, there's a whole other thing. That was probably us going, you know, like, so I guess we'll be on this Zoom thing for, few weeks and then end up being a year and a half. And many of the people listening right now were with us through all of that and were like a reason for us to goof around, be creative, and have fun together even when things are crazy. So I'm flashing all that.

I'm thankful for that. I'm thankful for everybody now. And it's a good opportunity to say that. Absolutely. Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, we'll be having some fun there. thankful for for everybody now and that's a good good opportunity to say that absolutely yeah yeah um so yeah we'll be having some fun there and and we'll be back you know fingers crossed we'll be back uh in the same city fairly soon and uh i don't know like i i always like thank the people working in la that are doing good work thank you to those people i don't know i just want to it's

crazy watching. I'm sure everybody's watching videos of stuff. Like people flying these helicopters. I don't know if you've been watching this shit. I'm obsessed with this. The people doing drops with the water. Have you seen this? Have you seen this?

Well, yeah. There's these ones that are going around that are like so ace nailed and it feels incredible to watch one, to watch a raging fire just be done in two seconds, because that's what we want to see more of. And, boy, yeah, it's exciting to get a great feed of one. It is crazy.

These people are awesome doing this stuff. So, yeah, all of that is thank you to those people and everyone else helping. Does it qualify as a ride? Is it qualified as a ride if you're, can we, does it qualify as a ride if you're flying those helicopters or just in the helicopters helping in some way? Or is that too exciting and interesting?

It might be too exciting and interesting. I guess for future, if we were to have a helicopter, like a firefighter, a helicopter firefighter on the show at some point. I think it's like in the same way that like if you go,

man, I love the uh what's the mexico pavilion at epcot and then somebody goes yeah but you go to mexico and you go yeah but that's too real i think maybe these are helicopter and plane flights that put out fires those are too real you know that's too legit to be a ride i think i thought but i'm thinking this all the time i had, so somebody could prove me wrong. Yeah, yeah, all right, yeah. So temper the excitement a little bit. Yes, yeah, for sure.

Yeah, no, absolutely, though. Thanks to everybody. And hey, you know, just thanks for the understanding. Also, thanks for the understanding of us awkwardly poking around very special episodes. I think this is a thing we are not good at doing yeah i'll speak for myself it's something i don't feel good at doing we even had to do like i'm like we better try to say a bunch of funny things yeah i'm gonna be in trouble here that's all i know how to do my brain is broken how do you deal

with serious things i know anytime i ever do anything serious, I go, oh, I didn't say that right. And then I fret. I told you, I said a couple of weeks ago how much I stress out about just normal sentences I say week to week on the show. But then when I have to say a serious sentence, oh boy, does my anxiety shoot up. I go, did I say that right? People can understand what I meant. So I hear you.

I'm with you i would rather i would be rather making jokes about inflatable stuff for sure that's that's my biggest zone that is the biggest thing that is going to be off the table for a little bit it's disgusting what has been my greatest joy it's really you know i've i think i have like a podcast favorite toy for a lot like like like the dog chewed toy that he just wants to attack and ruin. And you're lucky that Inflatable Stuff came up because that's my new favorite toy that we're going to have to set it aside for a while. Because in the lead up to that, it was definitely only listening to half of Olivia Rodriguez Guts. That was my, oh my God.

Right, right. The best toy i've had in a long time so you're so you're very like us so olivia half olivia is getting eased off on and maybe inflatable stuff too okay great yeah i i hear you well we'll have to find new stuff which is which is i think he is like i was just i just discovered a couple another michael eisner like ideas the other day that i just discovered a couple of another Michael Eisner like ideas the other day that I don't, I forget if we've talked about like the wedding of Mickey and Minnie.

Have we talked about that? No. Let's give people some hope into what we can talk about soon. Please. Let's, let's just, you know, let's open the doors to the brainstorming process. There was an idea. Some better episodes to come. Yeah.

There was an idea that Michael Eisner had of a year-long celebration leading up to the wedding of Mickey and Minnie. I've never heard this, really? Never heard it before, yeah. So I was like, oh, man, okay. So that, honestly, that was like a day or two ago. Oh, shoot, I forgot. That guy, oh, I forget his channel. This guy mentioned it on his channel.

I really should shout him out, but I'll shout it out where you know we've been here in la we've been in this realm of the the loud emergency alerts going off and i was watching the news when all the anchors got loud like somebody was on screen talking and then and then everybody off screen and waves like there's the other anchors and there's the camera people and there's the people in the booth and all the phones are going off. And it was wild to watch that happen on live TV, especially because that's the one that was wrong, where they told that it was like everyone evacuate. And that was meant for only a specific area. The people there, everybody has some complaints about how everything's going in L.A. right now. Sure. In terms of the people who supposedly run the city.

But anyway, I say all that to say that I wish to God that in a crazy emergency alert like that would pop up on my phone. And then I checked it and it said Michael Eisner once planned a year long ceremony celebrating Mickey and Minnie's wedding. And I would I if I got that alert at 4 a.m., I'd be happy. I got it. I wouldn't agree that my sleep was interrupted. If anything that crazy, call me about it, text me about it. There's no time that's a bad time to hear about Mickey and Minnie's wedding. I had a similar dopamine hit when I heard about this. So, yeah, it was very, very exciting.

That's right. You know, I think we've talked about it before, but it just seems like a cousin of it. And there's maybe not enough meat on the bone for a full episode, but that whole, the thing where he wanted to, here in our neck of the woods, Burbank, God bless Burbank, lately the Disney lot, there is ABCs on one side of the street and then the main lot is on the other side and now there's a bridge that connects the two and the animation is over there too. But the idea was that for where that bridge is,

straddling the two sides of the lot was going to be a big hotel shaped like Mickey. It was going to be a big Mickey in what very quickly leads to just an equestrian neighborhood that's just ranch style houses where people have, you know, barn stables and stuff. And so you would drive into your beautiful, like, 1940s ranch home under Mickey Mouse's legs. And this was an Eisner plan.

This was Eisner trying to be bold and like, I'm here, I'm new, this is the kind of shit I want. I don't even know if i like it but i'm putting it on the table um i mean that would change the city for it like if that was there if you were always driving under mickey's crotch every day uh yes to your horse i i found i found there's the video i saw that information which is from the YouTube channel Midway to Main Street and it's five abandoned Eisner era ideas and that is the Mickey Hotel

is in there oh okay so it's very related and it was like maybe we talked about this detail and I forgot but his idea was that the rooms would be in the legs we must have because there's no way we haven't his idea was that the rooms would be in the legs. We must have, we must,

because there's no way we haven't discussed that. some, some room ultimately, unless you like floor 13 it and just block the space up, but some room is going to have to be Mickey's balls. Yeah, of course that would be, I hope a suite at least that would be a bigger area to live in. But yes,

you would. Well well in the short what if also what if also just kind of like the rain gutter for the entire thing just like whatever like the plumbing whatever like like the vents that it does all lead ultimately to mickey's asshole i mean if you ever see like liquids or steam coming out of the mickey hotel it was all right out of the i would i look if i was planning it i would argue that the steam should be vented from the ears to at least make him seem like he's mad sometimes but it might it might make more sense to vent it from his asshole. So an engineer is somebody who would have to come up with that, explain it to me why it has to be vented from there.

But I would try to get it out of his ears to at least make it a fun thing that, like, Mickey's upset today. Well, you'd have to pitch it to Eisner. Where's the steam? We all know that hotels have to release steam frequently. But what part of Mickey's body is the steam going to come out of? Well, it could come out of his mouth and people would think he's like blazing up.

Like you could like, like all of a sudden Mickey like blows a big plume. That's cool, man. And a nice tribute to, you know, Michael Eisner, who must've been blazing up to think of an idea like that.

He's so, yeah, he's so out there with his ideas uh somebody commented on it we were talking about Eisner stuff and I saw the comment like so he was doing buckets of cocaine right and I'm like that's a funny thing to say about 80s executives and you know maybe but like is that his vibe is this no I don't think so on tv is the vibe of somebody who does buckets of cocaine hello I don't i don't think so because on tv is the vibe of somebody who does buckets of cocaine hello i don't i don't think so i don't yeah yeah i think you see you can watch 80s footage you can watch people on talk shows and go there you go there's one but i don't know if yeah eisner strikes me and i don't know maybe he says this in any of his books but he

strikes me as like a like a big coffee guy like a guy who drinks like multiple pots of coffee a day or something like he does have that energy sometimes when you see old clips of him but it doesn't feel like that druggy to me but i don't know i don't think so but it feels like like uh he has an exuberance and an energy and it feels like it would be just like like how trump you know drinks 12 diet cokes a day or something like it feels like it might be something like that like a legal drink that has a ton like caffeine in it and just just a terrible uh unending supply of of it that's terrible for you and yet you've maintained well into your later life uh i don't know what could happen yeah well something we could explore in the near future is what was eisner on it's a great question

i we could live it's was it drugs was it just natural highs was it just the magic of disney at least that that we know all i know is whatever he was on in the early 90s i'll have what he's having that's what i say oh boy we could use some of it right now.
