Whatever time it is, Lizzie McGuire.
And I'm like, the wild batch you were with.
It was like a first, like, closet moment from you where I was like,
I don't feel like she's hot, like the rest of them.
No, no, no. I was like, she's beautiful.
But I'm appreciating her in a different way than these boys are.
I'm not like, ugh.
But listen to Los Coleristas on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
On paper, the three hosts of the Nick Dick & Poll show are geniuses.
We can explain how AI works, data centers, but there are certain things that we don't necessarily understand.
Better version of Play Stupid Games win Stupid Prizes.
Yes.
Which, by the way, wasn't Taylor Swift who said that for the first time.
I actually, I thought it was.
I got that wrong.
But hey, no one's perfect.
We're pretty close, though.

change of plans, a show about who we are and who we become when life makes other plans.
I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long the need to change.

The best bits of the week with Morgan.
Part one.
Behind the scenes with a member of the show.
Good morning and happy.
20, 25.
It's already next year, but it's still last year.
I know.
Spoiler alert, this is 2024, but we're talking about 2025.
I know, but technically right now it is January.
Gosh, hold on.
These are so loud.
What if somebody's listened to this in January?
January 1st of like 2037.
They might be.
Right now it is January 4th, 2025.
January 4th,
wow, that's amazing.
Yeah, but technically we're recording this very early in December before we leave.
I was going to say if you asked about my Christmas plans,
I have no idea because it hasn't happened yet.
So that's not happening.
No, no, we're not talking about that.
We're actually going to focus on this past year and the new year.
Okay.
Oh, so which one is this?
I don't know what's going to happen right now because I don't hear the beginning production.
Is this the question's one?
This is the regular one.
This is the regular one.
Gotcha.
Okay, see, I was waiting for questions to come.
I was looking for some, like, positive feedback like,
Sarah and Melpita says that, wow, Scoopin C's one of my absolute favorites.
And I haven't heard that yet.
I'm kind of like fumbling.
Well, you're going to have to wait for part three, okay?
All right, cool, cool.
Cool.
Cool.
But I am bringing some questions over because I had asked everybody, like, New Year's
related things, what they wanted us to talk about.
Yeah.
So we've got Corinne who was like, what is the craziest New Year's Eve you've ever had?
Oh man, that would have been back in Winter Springs, Florida, my friend Drew's house.
I think it with a year was 2003 or 2004.
It was one of those wild, wild New Year's E parties where it was like something you would almost see like in a Seth Rogen type movie where it was like that kind of a party.
And I don't remember all the details.
I just remember, well, I could, we could probably be for an hour and I could tell you the whole story.
It's a very, very long.
It's like it's a show within itself that whole day.
but the bullet points would be
that was the first day that we started basically with me being as the lead
singer and screamer in that band
so that was like a pivotal moment
it was also a moment where my best friend Justin his dad showed up
and was all upset and he was like where's Justin where's Justin
and so that whole was a whole thing then he got his car stuck
No he just talks like this he's from New York
He's like hey hey leave a messenger I don't call you back if I want I don't know we'll see
Okay well that that turns into a little bit more New Yorker the first one was British
All right.
That's my little cockney.
No.
So that involves him.
And then his car getting stuck and then slinging mud everywhere and him not able to leave.
And then his car breaking down is a lot of that.
And a lot of drinking, a lot of hooking up.
My friend, we had names for some people and I won't say what those names were.
Like nicknames for people at the party.
They're really, really mean.
And probably not 2025 friendly.
Oh, yeah.
They weren't even 2024 friendly.
more friendly.
It doesn't sound like they were even 2003 friendly.
No, they were cool back then.
Especially outside of Orlando, Florida.
No, it wasn't anything like that.
It was just like Bear Lakes.
Not safe for work?
Not safe work for sure, no way.
But we had names for them.
And they were not mean.
They were just very descriptive.
Okay.
So we knew who we were hanging out with.
Did you call these names to their face?
Or was this naked names behind the back?
Well, I think it started behind the back, and I think it sort of faded into the forefront.
At that point, everyone was so drunk that no one really even cared.
And so everyone had their thing that they were doing.
Did you have a nickname?
I didn't have a nickname.
No, we nicknamed these other people that we were hanging out with.
Yeah, I just didn't know if your friends also gave you one and you gave your friends one.
No, no, no.
We were still, I was Steven.
Got it.
He was Brent.
He was Justin.
I think that was the only three that had any magical moments that Newze Eve.
And that was the first time I ever drank, like drank, drank, and I was like, this is, we drink this
nasty ass like vodka smearing off like bleh that was my realization of like never vodka i'm not a vodka
person i knew from then that moment the ugh gross and then like warm beer and you know everybody has
that one alcohol that they started drinking and they can never drink again yes and that was that
like in the beginning where you like have trauma associated with whatever that alcohol is oh yeah you see
the girl that you think you're going to be hooking up with and then your friends in the back of
his other friends bronco while he's in the front seat of his bronco and they're both hooking up
And the car's going, weir, weir, weir, weir, and then you're drinking all this, this nasty, gross pop-off vodka.
And you're like, and you start throwing up.
And then you start, like, spiraling.
And then you find another person you didn't want to be around.
And then you're around that person.
And you're like, oh, my God, what is happening right now?
Okay.
And how late were you out this night?
Were you out all night?
We didn't sleep.
We stayed up all the way into the morning.
We're playing Uno from, like, maybe that was like our reset.
We sat by the pool.
And this was like, by the way, my friend had a lot of money.
So it was a nice house.
too so it had all the amenities at everything
it was like free rain do whatever you want
everything's everywhere it's also a little bit in the woods
too so there's just a lot of space
and it was it was it was magical so at that point
we started playing uno and sobering up a little bit just smoking weed
and eating a lot of food and then also you're broke so it's just kind of what do you want to do
it's like I guess we'll just play uno for four more hours until
everyone wakes up and then went to Denny's and then just stayed up all that rest of the day
and then started a crash around like in the afternoon
yeah and how old were you like around this
I was 18 or 19 oh then we saw
all those three girls later at Blockbuster
because they were like,
all right,
I think,
I forget what day,
but it was like somewhere near a weekend,
whatever,
like, hey,
let's go run a movie or something.
All right,
let's go to run a movie.
So we're freaking,
that's how old this is.
We were in Blockbuster.
We look up and there's the three girls
and there's us three and we're like,
oh,
you three are together?
And you're like,
you three are together?
I'm like,
yeah,
we've been friends since like middle school.
Of course we're together
and the same kind of thing.
And it was that a really awkward moment.
And I was like,
hey, and everyone's like,
hey,
has like the little one I'm like hey what's going on and then one of them feels like
she she's like I may be pregnant like one of those scenarios and my friend's like well I didn't
use a you know a Jimmy so he's not worried because he thinks he gets he's got this girl
pregnant but but it's like one day later there's no way that she knows that she's pregnant
maybe I don't know maybe there's a feeling you get I don't I don't know yeah I mean
typically that at least takes a few days to have like true certainty over that I think so I
maybe she was just freaking out and like oh my god I'm just nervous and thinking oh my
I'm pregnant, I'm pregnant.
And then believing herself into her being pregnant.
And she really wasn't because she wasn't.
And then, I'm glad.
Fast forward, they didn't have a kid together.
And they actually never saw each other ever again after that blockbuster moment.
Did you guys any of you guys ever seen?
No.
No.
No.
No.
Never again.
That was like the last time.
It was like, all right, see you later.
And then I was like, I don't think we're going to see him later ever again.
And then we never did.
And that was it.
So, yeah.
Dang.
Also, you know, I want to recognize that you have some great memory.
recall of these things because like my situations where I remember my things, they're so fuzzy.
And I don't remember the details. Like I know where I was, who I was with, what was happening,
but I don't have like the details. Do you have core memories? You know, like a core memory is like
something that you can remember like almost like an episode like top to bottom, a TV show.
You know, honestly, I think I used to until I got COVID. Oh really? I mean, it really messed with my
memory. Oh, damn. Okay. I didn't realize there was that is more than just sensory and
all the other stuff.
No, because I used to have a really good recall
and I would remember things really well.
And now, like, post-COVID,
I have fuzzy just memories of different things
and I'll recall something and it'll be like half
what I think happened.
Half not.
It's weird.
If you talk about it with friends,
did they help jog your memory,
like, oh, no, Morgan, remember you to this?
And then it's like, oh.
Because, like, as I was telling you that New Year's Eve story,
that legitimate is a,
if I would go through the details that are in my head,
that's a solid one hour, if not more story.
because I can tell you every single moment from the moment we got up that morning thinking about how we're going to play in this party to the show to getting people there and then all the way to the next day at that blockbuster meeting.
I remember it's like a flash.
It's almost like,
and I'm back in that house.
Yeah.
And I'm like, here I am.
Oh my God.
I'm seeing it.
Dude, don't do that.
No.
Just walk away, bro.
Don't go there.
Hey, don't drink that.
Hey, don't make out with her.
It's going to lead to a potential pregnancy.
You know, I can just think.
I can just see everything.
Yeah.
So it's weird.
That is wild.
It's very wild.
I mean, I think that's cool that you can do that, though.
Yeah.
And I have a lot of those kind of memories where I just, I start talking about it.
And I'm like, oh my God.
I'm like, it's like I'm there.
Like one of those like Oculus glasses or whatever, like, or the Apple, whatever they call those.
No, Oculus, you got it.
I think Oculus is the name.
Yeah, but what do they call the Apple ones though?
Let me call it like something different, like Vision Pro or something.
Probably.
Yeah.
Back to it like, I, again, I just can't recall things.
Apple VR glasses.
Yeah.
I think it's Apple because it was hot for a while.
Then I think it definitely cooled off.
Vision Pro.
So it is Vision Pro.
So I was right.
Damn, I got really good memory.
Oh, there's also MetaQuest.
That's the Facebook one.
Yeah, and Oculus was another one, but I think it formed with whatever.
Who cares?
Anyways.
Yes, great memory.
Thank you so much.
I appreciate that.
But then there's a lot of things like day to day where someone's like, do you remember
yesterday or a couple days ago?
And I'm like, ain't a core memory.
Sorry.
It means nothing.
That email?
Yeah, not a core memory.
At all.
Actually, that email was a core memory and I hated it.
different version of a core.
Yeah, exactly.
You really are.
You're like the inside and out where they're pulling the core memories out and like, here, pop this one on the screen.
That's totally it.
That's why when I watch that movie, I'm like, oh my God, this is me.
I'm like that bad memories, good memories, core memories, like things that shape you.
Like it really is like it's crazy that whole thought process of creating inside out is really what is it's like for me.
I'm sure a lot of people too.
I'm not the only, I can be the only person like this.
No, I bet there's a lot of people.
And you're not wrong.
There are some moments where core memories will come back and like, oh,
Yeah, that one's super vivid. But it's just COVID. I mean, I should probably go see the brain doctor that Amy and Abby are seeing to like start making all the neurons fire correctly. Yeah, or not.
Well, more so to get my memory bad. I'm just kidding. That would be so fun to have again. I almost feel like you just need to go like on a memory tour and go back home and just go to some of the places and bring the people that you were there last time and just have them bring the memories back to you.
Well, maybe that's also why I don't have my smell. It's all connected. My brain can't remember how to smell.
Exactly. You need to go back to your roots.
Go smell some dirt.
Exactly.
Morgan going back to Roots, season one.
Action.
Oh, Kansas fan.
Yeah, we had a, the New Year's that I went, that I can recall, was a really fun one.
We ran into a party bus, and I was with, like, two of my really good friends that I grew up with, but then everybody else I really didn't know.
It was this one of the girls was dating this guy and it was a bunch of his friends.
And so we were on this party bus, and there's like 40 people on this party bus.
Yeah.
What year was this like, well, I guess how old were you, college, out of college?
It was, it was, um, I was home from college.
Okay.
So I want to say it was like my freshman or sophomore year.
Okay.
And so I was old enough to drink.
Gotcha.
We were going to the bars.
Or I had my sister's ID.
Yeah.
Either way, it was around college.
But yeah, yeah, there was, we always had party buses.
That was like the thing back in Wichita.
Yeah.
Not so much now, but that used to be the thing.
Oh, there were a thing too.
Because even when I was in San Francisco, everyone was, I was going to party bus and then we'll
go to the club.
So if you had a big group of people.
Yeah.
Then it was, it was kind of fun to have, like,
10 to 30 people on a bus.
It was so fun. I wish we did those more because there's just a fun way to get places and
you, like nobody's drinking and driving. It's very safe.
It is, yeah, until the party bus drops you off to your car and then you drive home.
Like the ones you see here in Nashville, it's like, all right, let's go drive around drinking
for the next three hours in the hot sun. And then we're going to drop you off at your car that you
came in over by Nissan Stadium and then you're going to drive home hell of drunk.
Oh, yeah, that's bad.
So whenever those are going on, like on the weekend, whatever, and I see where they
drop them off, I'm like,
We are going nowhere near that area on the weekend, and we're going to try to avoid even the roads at some point because those people are getting in the car or driving.
They're not Uber and home, by the way.
I see them get in their car and they're stumbling.
All right, Jessica, let's get in the car and drive home after we had all those white claws and no water in the hot sun driving around with no roof over our head.
We're sun beat red.
We're tired and we're drunk and we're going to go drive home to Hendersonville.
You're like, what in the, but the good ones are the ones where like it picked you up at like your house or everyone meets the house and then drops you up there and it's like, feel gets safer.
Drinking and your driving is very, very bad.
Yeah, sorry to go on a tangent.
That's the song.
Yes.
Drinking and driving is very, very bad.
No.
What did he say?
Yo, I got a fake.
What is that song?
Yo, I got a fake ID though.
How does it go?
Is it a rap song?
Is it a pop song?
It's a rap song.
And it's like an old school.
I want to say it's like chingy or 50s it.
It's like, yo, I got a fake ID though.
What is that?
song.
Yo, I got a fake ID though.
Oh, before we can even finish it, it finishes it for me and it goes lyrics.
Oh, is it J-Quann tipsy?
Yeah.
Maybe that's why.
Is it that where it goes?
It goes, drinking and dry, or it's.
Good.
It says teen drinking is very bad.
Yo, I got a fake ID though.
Yeah.
Ha-ha-ha.
Yeah.
I could remember what it.
I was like, something is very bad.
Two-step with me.
No, which makes sense because ShibuZ is very, very popular and all that stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, you know, drinking and driving is also very bad.
That's whole, yes.
Yeah, but yeah, okay, sorry.
I don't need to go on a huge tangent interrupt you.
But I was so baffled by that when I moved here.
I was like, what in the hell is happening right now?
Yeah, no.
Is this the 90s?
Horrible.
Like, where are we?
Are they mad about their seatbelts too?
And you can't smoke a cigarette in the car with the kids or the windows rolled up?
I don't think anybody actually thinks through that process.
You know, they go, thinking, okay, we got to go to this.
We got to be here at this time.
You go.
And then you're like, oh, we're like, we're going to Uber.
We know we're drinking.
We just got an Uber to the spot.
Well, some people play in a head very well.
But others, you know, don't.
And they need to do better.
Yeah, they do.
It's very bad.
It's never, ever worth it.
No, no, no.
I'm not judgmental, but I am in that.
Yeah.
No, same.
All right.
Sorry, I'm sorry to railroad, you.
It's okay.
So we got a party bus.
Which are awesome and fun.
Yeah.
And we ended up, like, going out on a night in which shop, which we went to a few
different places.
Like, we went to a place called Pump House, which is an old gas station turned into a bar.
Oh, that's pretty cool.
We're bobbing around to all these two bars, but what I remember the most is that I still to this day, Scoobo, I'm pretty sure somebody planted this beach vibes bar.
We walked in there.
I've never seen it.
I've lived in Wichita Town my entire life.
I've never seen, heard anybody ever talk about this bar.
We go in there.
It's like straight out of, you know, you're on a beach somewhere.
A key west.
Kenny Chessney type vibe?
Yes.
Like there's the tiki hut vibes everywhere.
There's all these drinks or whatever.
And we're there for like three hours.
We get lost in this place, right?
We're there, and I'm sipping on drinks to have little umbrellas.
Does it have a sand area, like where it's like people sitting in.
Oh, cool, yeah.
They have one of those.
Yes, I've been one of those.
Those are so cool.
And it was so much fun.
We were there when the ball drops.
So like everybody's celebrating New Year's.
Oh, cool.
So that's where you're at for it.
Okay, cool.
So like you got a fun spot.
The vibe was awesome.
Yeah.
Okay.
But, and I had like a fun random New Year's kiss that night.
Like, it was a vibe.
Okay.
Okay.
And we leave there.
Scoo, I've never been able to find here of.
this bar ever again. It was almost like
one of those things where it was
like a glitch in the matrix and you
found this place that doesn't exist or
it will exist at some point or it's in an alternate universe
and you got to go there for the night and kiss this boy
that doesn't exist. Literally.
All the above. Except I know he exists
because we added each other on Facebook. He exists
but the bar for sure doesn't.
Or you just got so slosh
before you got to that bar and you envisioned
what you envisioned but
in real life it's almost like
one of those things where it takes off the lens
and you're walking around.
It's like this bar where there's like this like ladies missing her teeth.
And she's like playing pool.
And you see it's like this cool chick and like a bikini hanging out of this young guy.
And there's this old man with no hair smoking a cigarette and flabby skin.
But then you have your beer goggles.
It looks like this hot guy looks like a Barbie doll.
And they're hanging out of the beach.
The tiki hut.
Life is good.
But in reality, it's like whatever's going on.
You start making out of this guy.
And this guy's like, all right.
But do you think it's this hot, cute guy?
I was on a party bus.
So all bets are off.
All that's wrong.
I think there's like a movie or something or a TV show where they envision one thing,
but the reality of it is, it's like, isn't that shallow how?
Yes.
Almost like shallow how, yeah.
But even the whole reality of even like everything that's happening is even a different
space and a different place.
Yeah.
The people too, yes.
Yeah, yeah.
But yes.
That one he envisions like something totally different.
So it doesn't exist.
That's my only theory of why it doesn't exist is because you thought it was that and it actually
isn't that.
It's possible.
I mean, I remember like I spent years after that night trying to just Google because I was
like,
I wanted to go back. I loved it's Wichita.
Yeah. No, I'm telling you, I'm telling you, I went down deep circles of the internet trying to find this place and I never could.
And nobody even, the best part is nobody even that was with us that night could even recall what the name was.
Well, if one here, it says, well, well, hidden tiki bar in Wichita.
That's what it says.
We do have an actual Tiki Bar in Wichita. There is one that I found, but it's not the one that we went to.
Okay, this one says history eight.
Oh, it's like, I guess the name of their thing.
This is it right here says the Kansas gastron on maybe no, sorry, lava and tonic.
Is that, have you looked at one?
No, lava and tonic is really cool, but yeah, no, it's not that.
Trust me.
Okay.
Like, you know me.
I'm good with technology.
I went to deep parts of the internet and I couldn't find anything.
I do love that every town has there, because even I can think about going back to Orlando back in the early 2000s of,
there's like those quintessential bars that everyone went to and flocked to in Orlando.
Like we had ember.
We had chill.
There's this one where it was three floors.
And so the bottom floor was a place called Chillers.
And on Wednesday night, you could get sloshed.
They had like 35 of those slushy machines.
And it was like rum chata and vodka this and Wally's crappy.
They were awful drinks.
But they were a dollar on Wednesdays.
So you can go there and spend like five, six bucks and get hammered and add another shot for a dollar or whatever.
The next level was Big Belly and they did nickel beers.
So beers for a nickel.
And then the top level was...
Love a beer for a nickel.
That's not a hangover waiting to happen.
It was awesome.
So you'd start with the crappy slot with slushy drinks.
Then you drink beer.
And then you get to the third level where it was called Latitudes and it was three for ones.
Also, wait, hold on.
Yeah.
I'm putting in a quick break and we're coming back.
Okay, yeah.
American soccer is about to explode.
The World Cup is coming.
Ramos sending on the only score at the chip.
I'm Todd Ramos.
I'm Tom Boe.
On our podcast, Inside American Soccer, you'll get the real storylines.
I'm not worried about Policic.
I'm not worried about Balligan.
I'm not worried about McKinney.
My only concern is what happens in the back.
The biggest decisions.
If you're going to look at stats and numbers,
he has no shot at making this World Cup team.
And the truth about the U.S. national team.
It wouldn't be a huge surprise if our team ends up in the quarterfinals
or potentially a great run into the semifinals.
The World Cup is almost here.
Experience it all with us.

There is one finding that is consistent, and that is that our resilience rests on our relationships.
I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long the need to change.
We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that none of us likes.

On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth with John Hope Bryant, I sit down with Tiffany
the budgetista aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money.
What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people
when they're no longer here? We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build
real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts. Too many of us were never, ever taught.
Financial education is not always about like, I'm going to get rich. That's great. It's about
creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself
and leave a strong financial legacy for your family.
If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money,
this conversation is for you to hear more.
Listen to Money and Wealth with John O'Brien from the Black Effect Network
on the I'd Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,

Hey, Ernest, what's up?
Money is something we all deal with,
but financial literacy is what.
helps turn income into real wealth.
On each episode of the podcast, Earn Your Leisure,
we break down the conversations you need to understand money, investing, and entrepreneurship.
From stocks and real estate to credit, business, and generational wealth,
we translate complex financial topics into real conversations everyone can understand.
Because the truth is, most people will never taught how money really works.
But once you understand the system, you can start to build within it.
That means ownership, smarter investing,
and creating opportunities not just for yourself,
but for the next generation.
If you want to learn how to build wealth,
understand the markets,
and think like an owner,
earn your leisure is the podcast for you.

Okay, three for ones go.
Three for ones at Latitudes was awesome.
So that, which reminds me, Tiki Bar, it's on the rooftop of a three store building in downtown Orlando.
I hope it's still there because we used to go there.
Every time we go back home, like, oh, we got to go to Chiller's Big Bellian Latitudes.
chillers was still there for a moment
I think changed names
Also who comes up with all these names
Right
They're kind of like what?
Everywhere has weird names
Anyways go on
You had the pump
But that one kind of made sense
Because it was because of the gas station and everything
But still they're all weird names
I don't know where all the anyways
Yeah and so it was crazy
You had that and the chiller top level was a latitude
And it had like the tiki hut
And had like the fire and the flame
And it was kind of dangerous
And three for once
That's where you ended the night
But if you were smart as you got older
You would start the night
And it only go to latitude
So when I would go back to visit
We would skip.
We would walk through chillers and go,
oh, this is awesome.
We're all these people here,
they have no idea.
And Big Bell,
you don't even go in.
You just walk up the stairs
and keep going.
And you get to the third level.
We're like,
we're just going to be at latitudes all night long.
That was a spot to go.
And then Taboo was a fun one.
And that was owned by John Morgan.
You know, Morgan and Morgan and Morgan.
Morgan and Morgan for the people offices.
He has a bar.
He used to.
I think they sold it off because that was like the massive
awesome hip hop club.
It used to be an old, like movie theater
or like a theater for plays and stuff
and they converted it.
Like it was sick.
was the spot to go to him and a guy named Johnny, who was a morning show guy in Orlando.
He had was part ownership and a couple of people. I think they sold it. But they were a big
investor people. I didn't realize that John Morgan was like a national thing. Yes, I always knew him
as Orlando. That's where he was, that's where he's from. That's where he started his practice was
Orlando. And so when I moved away from Orlando like in 2009, I just was like John Morgan,
gone. Never was a blip in my memory. I mean, knew him, knew all these kind of things about him,
but didn't think much about him. I was just a lawyer there. And then I moved in Nashville.
when I saw John Morgan billboard in 2019.
I'm like, John Morgan, like the guy from Orlando?
And I was like, oh, well, it's been like 15 years.
Dude, probably went national.
He blew up, yeah.
And he didn't move.
He was in Orlando.
But he's in Maui and he's in L.A.
And he's rode on everywhere.
Yeah, he's got that money, money.
Yeah, he's got real money.
I was like, man, he's big time now.
So, like, this is sick.
So, yeah, so the downtown club scene was amazing.
And you had their land of magic.
So people would go to games and after games, you then roll over into a spot.
Okay, but did any of these bars you think exist?
But then they really didn't?
I was pretty conscious and I went to these bars pretty frequently
So yeah no no I don't have your problem
We would get pretty drunk but we knew what we were at because we picked it
Listen it's like your ghosting right where you have all these experience with like ghosts and other things on different planes
This is like mine where something happened to me and I can't explain it
And I'm pretty sure that you were right and I was on another dimension for like three hours of a new year
Oh you entered somewhere you your bus went for something your bus was like the magic school bus
Yes, I love the magic school bus.
Yes. And you're wearing a yellow jacket. That's what reminded me of the magic school bus.
So I figured out of immediately school bus.
So I was like, yo, you went on the magic school bus.
I did.
Miss Fritz took you into a different time zone.
You got the out of planet Earth.
You went somewhere else.
I didn't even know where you were.
And then you got back in the magic school bus to leave there.
Yeah.
I mean, we left on the party bus and I went back home and again, couldn't find it ever again.
Exactly.
So you didn't get in an Uber.
No one picked you up.
You got back in the school bus.
Or like Tomorrowland.
You know where they press the button.
Yes.
That's only in front of mine because I just watched that movie for the first time.
It's a great big beautiful tomorrow.
Yeah, but they hit on the button and it's like this whole world.
They take it off and it's all gone.
Did you ever go on Carousel Progress in Orlando?
Do we talk about that?
Yeah.
You went on it?
So when you sit down and you see the whole thing from like the 1920s.
Yeah.
I think you see of 1800s maybe.
Which is weird.
Like the dog lived over 150 years.
This is crazy.
Yeah.
Because it goes to the whole thing.
I wish they did, you know?
So I'm just going to believe that that one's true.
Okay.
Yeah.
I love that song, by the whole thing too.
The Carousel.
And when I heard it in the movie Tomorrowland, I'm like, oh my God, they featured the song in the movie.
This is amazing.
I love it.
That's so funny.
I guess I didn't put two and two together that that was that song.
Yeah.
Because on the Tomorrowland ride in Disney, they don't play it.
It's about the Webway.
Yeah.
The time of the thing in the sky, the blue one.
Yeah, I can't remember which one.
Well, yeah, because I feel like they have that ride, don't they?
Am I making that up?
Yeah.
You're talking about the Carasar Progress or the Webway?
No, like the one that was inspired by Tomorrowland.
Yeah, the Carasar Progress.
Okay.
Yeah, that's the one where it's like.
like a big, it's Walt Disney, it was in the world's fair.
It's that big circular building that moves.
You sit like in an auditorium, in a stadium seating and you got like the stage and it's like,
it's like, well, it's the turn of the sensory and Uncle Orville is like a scene where
like the curtain opens up and he's like on like an exercise or he's exercising.
Okay, we didn't go in there.
Oh, you messed up, dude.
That's like the only ride, the only thing.
I know it's like the spot where people go to sit down because their legs are tired or they need
to break and they need to be in the AC because it is cold in there.
I was in there for the AC at one point, but I don't think we went into the actual thing.
You didn't go to ride the ride then.
We did do the carousel progress because I remember that one.
That's the one.
That's the one. We sit down in the stadium seating and it's like, and it's this guy who's the same constant guy.
I'm thinking of the one that you're on it.
It's a carousel progress.
Like you're literally on this track and you go all the way around.
You kind of see a lot of the park.
That's blue line.
So that's the webway where you go up the escalators.
Like it's like a flat escalator with no stairs and it brings you up to like the second level and you sit down in this like six car thing.
It's blue.
And you go around.
It's like now approaching space mountain.
And you go inside Space Mountain, you can see it.
And it's like now approaching the Carousel of Progress.
And it's like, it does play a little bit of the song.
It's like, It's a great big, beautiful tomorrow.
I was going to say that.
Okay, that's what we were on.
Okay, you're right.
I didn't go sit in the stadium.
That's my second favorite ride at Disney World.
So you're good.
You're good.
You just miss my first favorite.
Sorry.
Yeah, it's okay.
But it's okay, though, because you need to go back.
I do.
And you will.
I'm sure you will.
So yeah, yeah.
So it's just something to add to the list.
If you don't go to Carasau Progress next time, you freaking go on to be hell of pissed.
Okay, but also, as long as it's not, what's the, what's the creepy one?
It's a small world.
Oh, yeah, you don't have to go on that ever again.
Do you go on it once?
Yeah, you're good.
I never want to go again.
You could have watched a YouTube video, I've been fine.
You're right, and I regretted everything when I was on that ride.
Yeah, because you can sit at the restaurant next to it and watch all the kids go in there
and the parents with this massive amount of disappointment.
Like, oh, I hated it then, I'm going to hate it now.
It will have ever blow my mind that there was multiple people when I went there.
that were like, you have to go on.
It's a small world.
It's the best ride ever.
And I will.
Those people hate you.
I won't be like, how, why?
Yeah.
Those dolls will give me nightmares for my life.
And the song on repeat over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.
That's literally that right.
Okay, that was not, that was our dizzy tangent for the day.
Oh, we can keep going.
You got to be, I know, we could.
I'm going to slash I went to.
to Orlando.
Yeah.
And it was awesome, I heard.
Are you guys potentially planning?
Did you plan to go to Disney?
So we were looking at everything from Disney to Universal because my oldest loves Harry Potter
in Jurassic Park and Jurassic World.
Yeah.
Looking at those two, looking at Legoland and SeaWorld because of the capacity.
And I know Disney 100% that whole week of Christmas is at like 100% capacity.
I don't have patience for crowds and long lines.
Universal is.
What are the holidays were supposed to be the type?
Is it?
It's after the holidays.
Oh, got it.
right after the holiday. So if you were to go the second week of January, when everyone goes
back to school and goes back to, you know, across the world from vacation, that's when it's like
zero minute away, five minute away. So like the second week of January is pretty good. Going into
the first holiday weekend, it's pretty decent. And then February is kind of like also man, but once
you get the spring break, then it starts to lift again in March. So that's why I would love to
one day just be like, screw it. I'm going, I'm taking my vacation. Second week of January. I'm
going to Orlando because I want to be able to just do Disney when like the way I did Disney as a kid with no
lines. So we were looking at all that. I'm like, I don't, it's not going to be fun. So we didn't
do Disney. I already know we're not doing it. They're not doing Disney. Not doing Universal.
Flash forward next year. We did it anyways. Hey, you never know what's going to happen.
Yeah. They were looking at Lego Land and SeaWorld. I haven't done Sea World in a long time.
I had like six roller coasters since I left. And they were looking at Lego Land because my kids
love Legos. But those were at 70% capacity. And those are usually like at 10%.
No one ever goes there. So I'm like, if those are at 70, that means that's not going to
be good either. So I was just like, no theme parks. We'll just do like Disney Springs,
which is like the old school downtown Disney. Do like a bunch of restaurants because I love
getting reservations. My reservations right now are stacked. I'm making Disney reservations for
every day that we're there for food, the places I've been to or I want to revisit with family members.
I hope all of them taste as good as you remember. That's always disappointing when they don't.
And you're like, dang, I guess I didn't. I just had a moment there where I really liked it and no longer.
Exactly. I enjoyed it in that moment in that time. But yeah. Yeah. So I hope they all taste good.
Thank you.
And I hope if you do go, you have patience for days.
Yeah.
All I have for you.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Do you have a actually, you know what?

Do you have any resolutions for the new year?
Do you ever do resolutions?
No, I really do.
I mean, I try.
I'll say something.
And I just like the second day in, I'm like,
fuck
that's one way of it
that's fair
yeah it's usually like cursing
like trying to curse as much
but it's just my nature
especially around the kids
that's where I'm really good
at not cursing as much
or even it's almost just like
absolute frustration like are you
kidding me like really
and then we're like oh man
I'm so sorry I'm like yeah we just talked about this dude
and he realized it's like oh yeah I really did mess up
he won't say it one time he did say
and I was like dude you can't say that's an adult word
Like he knows what certain things are
And he'll go like
So what can I say that?
And I'm like when you're 18
He's like all right cool
So when I'm 18
And then sometimes we'll be somewhere
And I don't realize it
I'll go oh F
And he'll go oh I can say that
When I'm 18
And I was like yeah yeah yeah he can
Sure can but you remember that
He's gonna turn 18 and just start dropping bombs everywhere
It was just like just condensed inside of him
But it's not even that's everything
It's like when can I start doing this
I'm 11 he's like 11 got it
Because I can do this when I'm 11
So all these things I put all these
ages on stuff so I have to, he remembers him, I don't. So as soon as he gets to those ages,
then I have to be like, all right, do I have to assess this? Can he really do this?
Or was I just trying to scoot him away to, like, leave me alone so years down the road to not have to worry
about it.
You might need to stop putting ages on things. You might just be like when you're older.
Well, you're so damn specific. He's, I'll say that. And I'm like, well, what age, though?
And then I'm like, 11, 12. I mean, he is your son.
Yeah. Yeah. It tracks and they often say that your kids are your own karma.
Yeah, I know, I know, yeah.
Okay, well, fair.
I don't have any plans to do any resolutions.
I'm a lot like you.
I don't.
I might do like one and throw it, but I don't know.
I just don't have it.
I'm like I'm always trying to do better and do better things.
But if I put,
I feel like if I put some random resolution or goal on something,
it never ends up panning out in that way.
If I just let it be something that's kind of on a list somewhere,
I feel like it pans out more.
Yeah, I feel like if you're not like trying to force it.
Yes.
Then you're like really,
then you're like really trying to make it.
happen and then it's like then if it happens and it's like well I can't enforce that.
Yeah and then I get sad if I don't do it.
With that too.
Yeah.
I don't need to be sad over not of doing like a silly thing that I came up with on a whim.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Some people are really good and they're really intentional about it.
Might not be like, oh yeah, I'll do that.
Yeah.
That's how I.
And when you get to like, oh, that was pretty cool.
I did it.
Yeah.
Versus like, I've been thinking about it all year and I haven't done it yet.
Oh my gosh, it's December 19th.
Ah!
You know it is funny though.
I do have a video planned in my head because I will have spent.
at this point, as long as I solve my flights and everything, go according to plan, Barcelona. I'll be in New Year's Eve.
What?
Barcelona for New Year's Eve.
And last.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
So excited.
Yeah.
All my travel goes as according to.
Is that the place where they have that big statue on top of the hill?
Yes. I believe so.
Oh, you, that's it. You please go there.
If you don't go there, I'll be super disappointed. It's like not going to carous out progress.
Okay.
Or is that South Paul or South Paul or something?
I don't know. You may have to confirm that.
it's there. I got I still got to put you at this point. Well, Barcelona to Spain, sorry, I was
thinking South America. You're going to Spain. Yeah. Oh my God, even better. For some reason,
I'm thinking South America, Spain, my friend's Cuban, which is the direct descendants of
Spain, a spaniards, he constantly likes to remind me of that when he hears other people Spanish.
I was like, that was like, that was all right. Well, someone would say something and I'm
like, yo, what do you say? He goes, I don't know. It's like some trash Puerto Rican Spanish.
I'm like, oh, okay. And I'm like, what that guy says? He's like, I don't know. It's like, I don't know
what that is. Dude, it's like somewhere from somewhere in Mexico. And I'm like, well, you know what he
said, like, tell me what he said. He's like, we're from Spain, okay? And I'm like, oh, okay,
gotcha. Like, we're to direct descendants. Is he the bougie kind? Like, I'm the, I'm the
upper echelon of Spanish speaking people. Okay. Cuban and people, because they're from Spain.
So, I mean, I guess when you're, I don't know, not everyone may be that way, but that's
exactly how he is for sure. When it comes to that, like, it wouldn't even come off,
like, he's not even like, he's not that way all the time. But when someone's speaking something
and you're like, I don't know, dude. Gross. I'm like, okay. Like, I think you know what he said.
I can just give me an idea.
Yeah, I don't know, bro.
I don't know what he said.
It was like something stupid.
And I'm like, oh, okay.
But what did he say?
I did not realize this was the thing.
I didn't realize this was the thing either until I was like, I think one day I think
I started asking him.
I was like, we were for instance, like nine or 10.
It was around 14 or 15.
I was like, yeah, what do you say?
I don't know, bro.
Okay.
Like, I don't know either.
I have no idea.
I think I got yo, which means I.
Like, what is he talking about himself about?
Like, what did he say?
I don't know, dude.
It's like gross.
I'm like, okay, all right, anyway, so.
So funny.
Yes, but Spain's beautiful.
I'll have to try to get, I'll head him up and like,
yo, tell me a couple things because he has like family, like family.
They have like castle there and stuff.
Yeah.
They know a lot about Spain and Barcelona and a lot of stuff.
Because I'm going in totally blind.
Oh, dang, cool.
I have no idea.
Okay, cool.
But the reason I brought that up, this is how my brain works.
Like, people always be like, how do you come up with video content and ideas?
Like, I'll be something will be in my head.
And this is my thing.
Last year, I was eating grapes under a table because I was hoping to find the love of my life.
in 2024.
Thought I met it, right?
Got broken up with.
So I decided to go to Barcelona for New Year's Eve and this is going to be the compilation.
That's awesome.
That's the video idea.
That's badass.
Yeah, that'll be my, that's so cool.
My New Year's video.
Yeah.
That's sick.
So when do you, I guess when you potentially flying out?
So I'll fly out the day after Christmas.
Okay, cool.
So you do Christmas with family and then fly out.
Hell yeah.
Yeah.
We're doing, and I've talked about so many times people are going to be annoyed to me.
We're doing Brussels, Paris, and Barcelona.
It's like the...
Whoa, Paris, too?
And Brussels?
Yeah.
Holy crap.
Yeah.
When you say we're, who's weird?
Me and one of my girlfriends, Julia.
Oh, dang, that's sick.
That's so cool.
Yeah.
How long is that flight?
Oh, from...
So I'll be flying, because I'm going from my hometown because my parents are watching my animals for me.
Yeah.
They're amazing.
Flying out of Chicago from there to Brussels.
Okay.
I think it's a nine-hour flight.
Oh, it's not too bad.
No, the flight bath's going to be much worse because I'll fly from Barcelona and
I have to fly somewhere else in Europe, then I think to like Canada, then to Chicago, then back up.
Oh, dang. Whoa.
Yeah, that one's a little bit different.
Wow.
But for the first of Chicago and Brussels have a direct flight.
So that's cool.
That is cool.
Yeah, that's probably.
Then you train it when you're there to go from one place to the next.
Training from Brussels to Paris, flying from Paris to Barcelona.
Dang, that's so cool.
Yeah.
That is so cool.
Again, this is saying winter travel is crazy.
Yeah, but still, though.
So that's saying like this all works out and it pans out.
Oh, it'll work out.
That's awesome. That's so freaking cool.
Oh my God, I'm so jealous.
That is so badass.
Yeah, that's the plan.
So this is why you need to go to Universal and Disney.
You can have your own international vacation within a theme park.
Yeah.
I know it's not the same, but same.
Yeah, I don't like lines at all and I don't like large crowds.
Yeah, but that's also just part of the experience.
Yeah, but I don't like that part of the experience.
I like the experience where I have freedom to walk around.
You're right.
I have people bumping into me and lines are like five, ten minutes long.
You're right, but you know what?
You're going to look back and be like, dang, we do that over the holidays.
and the kids loved it.
You're not going to look back and be like, those lines suck.
Yeah, you're right.
Kids don't really care.
You're right.
But the kids do not like long lines.
That's true, too.
Yeah, I don't know.
I also have to convince my wife who's also, it's even more of like, we're not doing that
with that many kids and that many people.
Listen, I say this all as somebody who's also impatient of lines, so like I get it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I think you guys should.
I feel like you guys would have fun.
And if you go to Orlando and don't get to go to a theme park, I feel like you're going to be
bummed.
Oh, I know.
Trust me.
That's what we did last Christmas.
we didn't go because the same thing I was like I don't really want to go on the lines and we didn't go and I was like but I didn't feel like it was that complete but I'm missing one thing I feel like one of those has to be less busy at one point or another yeah right you could go on Christmas actual Christmas day is that busy sorry
I got no I got an email and he someone's here so I was just looking at something sorry got it okay well let's end let's end on something sorry I don't mean you're rude or like no it's like I you looked concerned so I wanted to make sure you were okay
Let's end on what was the best part for you of 2024?
The best part of 2024 was December 31st, 2024.
Oh, stop it.
And that ish was over.
Stop it.
You had to have.
At 1159, December 31st, 2024 was the greatest moment of 24.
Getting out of there.
Scuba?
I want out of this year.
You have to have something this year that you like.
Take me to this next year where it's already happening right now.
We're 40s and do it.
to force you to find something that you liked about this year. You can do it. Do you want me to go first?
Yeah, you go first. I had to look for something to my email while you're going first.
Got it. That will help you. I believe that I think mine honestly was getting to experience multiple of my
friends and my sister get married. Like as much as it was the most chaotic year of my life and still is
going up until literally 2025. I loved getting to.
experience all the weddings and seeing all my friends and my close people in my life,
like find their person and get married and fall in love. And that was, that was a cool,
joyful part for me. Yeah, you're on a wedding tour. You were like, you were like, literally,
it was like performing live, Morgan Heelsman at your wedding. You were all over. Like,
this is really cool. It was a fun. You got a year full of a lot of like fun up and like up energy,
like like fun positive energy. And then you got to go to Vegas a couple weeks ago and do the whole thing
and do a lot of little things in between with work stuff.
I feel like it was a good year for you as far as like getting out there and doing stuff.
And then you cap it off with the ultimate getting out there and doing stuff by going to frickin'
Paris and Brussels and Barcelona.
Yeah.
That's pretty freaking cool.
Yeah.
It's been like a really busy, you know, it was like the weird situation where like I got
broken up with and I just never saw it coming.
Yeah.
To like this ended up being one of the best busiest years so far.
so crazy how life works out in that capacity.
But what about you?
What about me?
Give me something.
There hasn't be something good in 2024.
There was 12 months, 365 days.
One of those days had to be decent.
Even if it was a day that you got a day off and you didn't have to do anything, that could also be an option.
But I'm going to push you to have something here.
Okay.
This is why I told Scooba before we get into it, deep breath.
And the sooner you tell me, the sooner you're going to get out of this.
I'll just go the first thing that you get out of this.
You're being held hostage.
I've locked that door.
It is.
You can't get out.
Until you say something positive about your 23rd.
I would say the first thing comes to mind because we have a game this coming weekend.
I would say at the beginning of the year when we are our second season of the same team of kids that I'm coaching for my son's basketball team.
That because they had played together the first season in the fall in 2023 and then we're kind of figuring things out.
And they were jelling and they were, you know, figuring out the fundamentals and everything.
And then when they were the majority same team, like 80%, 100% into the following season,
which was January in February of 2024, they were like they had gelled so well that they were
dominating.
Like they were having so much fun and just playing really good basketball.
And they won every single game except for one.
And they beat teams that they couldn't beat last previous season.
So they just felt really good.
They were like on a high, energy high.
And I was like, oh my God, this amazing.
This coaching is so much fun.
And my wife was the assistant coach.
She would sit on the bench.
and she would hang with the boys.
Yeah, so she would hang with the boys
and be kind of like their mental coach
because, you know, they were five and six
and after playing, you know, a lot
or if they got hit or they got frustrated
for some reason, my wife was the best to be there and be like,
hey, take a deep breath, like relax, drink some water,
you're fine, you're going to take a break, four minutes,
whatever, and she talked to them for a little bit
and be like, look, see, and then she'd point things out
for them to watch and be like, hey, see how he's doing that
or don't do, like, she was also a coach too,
and, like, helping them to see things, but also more than anything
to, like, calm down to get ready to come in
four minutes or at the next quarter or whatever.
So she was like the really good,
like a great bench coach.
And then I was the head coach.
So I was out there with them and like directing them and telling them what to do and that
kind of stuff.
Power duo.
Like we dominated.
It was awesome.
It was so much fun to see.
And to the point where we were playing all, all the other teams as we were leaving other
like parents I didn't know who they were like, hey, coach, good game.
Like I didn't know who they were.
And I was like, oh, I don't know if that is.
And I was like, oh, that's.
And I see them with the kid.
Oh, that's the other team's parent or grandparent or like whatever they were.
And I was, oh, I don't know.
I'm getting a lot of compliments from the other team.
Like this is pretty crazy.
Like, yeah, good team.
You guys had a great team.
Good coach and coach.
And I was like, well, I was really, oh my God.
Maybe I'll be an NBA coach one day.
I don't know.
This is on your dream to wanting to become the NBA coach with your son.
Exactly.
Yeah.
I was like, damn, maybe I'm doing really good.
Okay, all right, sweet.
I was like, this is something that if I work at it.
Maybe I could do something like that.
See, look at that.
2024.
You did have a good part of your year.
I'm proud of you.
Yes, thank you.
Okay.
Well, let's get out of here.
tell the people where they can find you.
They can find me.
Well, in the New Year, I think Twitter, not Twitter, TikTok.
TikTok is going away, right?
I'm not they banning it?
I mean, they've been talking about it for like a year now.
Yeah.
When that happens, will be the day that I believe it's finally happening.
Well, Vine went away, so.
Vine went away because it just disappeared.
It wasn't legal reasons.
It just disappeared, yes.
Instagram story.
Well, Snapchat killed it.
Snapchat was starting to come in and kind of kill it a little bit.
But I miss Vine.
I wish that was back.
That would take Vine over TikTok.
I do love Vine.
And there are some vine moments on TikTok.
So I do like those little peeping through.
I just literally saw one the other day.
And I was like, that's a vine moment.
Yeah.
But all that to say, yes, it may still be here.
Like I said, once it's officially gone, then I will believe it's actually happening.
And when it's gone, good riddance.
No one really cares.
I don't really care at least.
I don't want to see recycled content from 20 years ago.
I don't want to hear you tell me about a story inside your car of the parking lot of something that allegedly
just happened with you and somebody else.
That sounds completely made up.
But there's no evidence whatsoever of your.
story. It holds no basis, no water, no factual evidence, nothing. It's just you sitting in the car,
looking at your phone, tell me some stupid story that is pretty entertaining, but it isn't because
it's not real. I know it's not real. Go get a job. There are some things that are real. Actually,
those are more real than the ones where they fake make the scenario. Or the fake ones, too. The same thing.
The fake ones and the ones where the storytelling ones are like, we wouldn't be funny if this
happened and we'll just tell the story in your car and the parking lot of where it just happened.
Or the ones where it's like this hack that like no one's ever heard it before, but yet we've all
heart of it from the 90s. It's like, ah, this new thing. If you breathe in, you can get oxygen
into your lungs. Try it when you get home and do it every second and you'll be able to breathe
easily. You know, in this moment, you're reminding me of lunchbox.
But it's all facts that I'm talking about right now. So right now, TikTok, it's going to be a
defunct app on my phone, just like Vine was one day where it's still there and you can't open
or you can't do anything with it. But you can find me on there, but I don't ever go on there
because I'm not doing anything. You're doing a great job. Last time I was there was last time.
