Hello, and welcome to this episode of Kennedy Saves the World. So Disneyland has been in the news this week because Vice President J.D. vance and his family went to the Magic Kingdom in Southern California in Anaheim. What? What? Hey, no doubt. And of course, California governor Gavin Newsom was trolling Vance and his family, like, hope you have fun at Disneyland. You know, the families who were torn apart by the ice raids, they weren't having any fun. And it's like, oh, did you want to send the kids who are trafficked to work in pot farms to Disneyland by themselves so they could be preyed upon, you weirdo. It's very, very difficult to enjoy Disneyland as a family because it's so insanely expensive. I took my daughter and her best friend to California Adventure, which, you know, shares the same campus or footprint as Disneyland. And it's, you know, just a different kind of vibe. Still super fun. We have our favorites there as a family. And it was like, for three of us, it was like 600, and we got there, and the woman's like, did you make a reservation? I'm like, no. So apparently that was something you had to do at the park post Covid was make a reservation. I did not know this, but luckily. Luckily enough because I have a California driver's license. She was like, okay, you're a resident. It's fine. You didn't know. So my daughter and her friend and I all got in and I spent a day at Disney by myself while they went off and cavorted like teenagers, which is exactly what they should be doing. And they had a great time. And I just went in search of a margarita, which is easier to find at California Adventure than it is at Disneyland itself. But, you know, obviously you can fill up a water bottle with any clear spirit you want and have a fine time there with your frozen lemonade. But I've always thought it was weird for people who go to Disneyland as adults. I mean, that. That in and of itself is weird. And if you're one of those people who like to go to Disney, I don't. I don't care. Like, maybe you had a traumatic childhood. Maybe you had, like, the best childhood ever and your very best memories from your. Your time growing up was going and Putting on your little Minnie Mouse ears and just having a blast with your family. And you just want to relive that because you had so much fun. I mean, that's how I feel. Whenever I ride my bike with my friends. I feel like I'm in a BMX gang, which is what I always wanted when I was a kid. And the closest I got was trailing behind my brothers by a few hundred yards while they tried to lose me in our hilly neighborhood. So if. If that's what you're reliving, that's great. But still, when you go to Disneyland with kids, number one, it's exhausting. Number two, it's expensive. And number three, it's so weird seeing adults there without children. And, you know, it's like, if. If it makes you have a great time, it. As long as you're not cutting me off in line, I really don't care. One time, I will tell you this as an aside, and this was very strange. We were in Orlando for a gymnastics meet, and this was probably eight or nine years ago, and one of the gymnastics dads had a foot injury and had a medical note and somehow was able to take 15 of us and cut the lines on every ride. And we went right to the front of the line because he had, like, plantar fasciitis. Now, that seemed wrong. That seemed like something where every single person there should have paid an extra thousand dollars. And I felt really bad about it. Did I feel bad enough that I waited in line for three hours with my children? No. I went ahead and cut right to the front of the line. But again, we were with children. So I remember the first time I went to Disneyland as an adult at 22, because I hadn't been since I was 5. And I was like, oh, this is fun and kind of novel and something I will never do again as an adult. And I remember seeing all the people without kids in their costumes and their ears, you know, having had their hair braided, having been to the princess salon and getting their makeup done by Tiana or Merida or, you know, God knows whatever other Disney princess was available to, you know, work in the makeshift Sephora that day. And. And I. I just remember thinking, like, this is so strange. It was almost like going into a fetish community. Like a group of people who just exist in this subculture where they're only comfortable acting like children around other adults, acting like children, demanding the same amount of attention from people dressed up as Disney characters, as little tiny kids, and, you know. You know, they're Happy to, to push people out of the way so they can get autographs. Chip and Dale, don't go anywhere more. Kennedy saves the world right after this.

Dating app for Disney adult weirdos so they can go and enjoy the park and not be the only ones in mouse ears without kids. And if people do actually pair up on this app, I do think it come, it should come with the sterilization kit. I don't know that you should be contributing to the gene pool if you get off being around little kids at a very expensive theme park. It's strange. It is strange. And if, if you find someone else that you want to do that with, another fetishist and that makes you happy, that's great. And you know, I, I celebrate your first amendment right to not be censored by the government for, for being a little bit off. But you also have to grant me that. We all make judgments in life. And it didn't occur to me how weird the Disney adults were until I had kids because when I was an adult, the one time I went there and I was like, oh, these people are dressed like children. Oh, that's a little weird. It's like seeing, I remember seeing a group of adults all dressed in animal onesies, like the kind you get from Amazon at Halloween when you're being just a little bit lazy, you know, like a zip up monkey or a zip up ladybug. Two things that I actually have when I went trick or treating with my children. So it was, it was like that, seeing people in this weird fetishes costume and I was like, oh, that's a little odd. But you know, high fives all around. When I went with children then it seemed like creepy. It really did. Especially the men. So when you see men walk around Disney by themselves without kids. Yeah, there, there's a, there's an alarm system internally that was activated when I had children. And you know, it's like my, my initial instinct was to gather them and keep them away from the guy dressed as Goofy. Not, not the guy employed by the park, making a decent living, maybe just above minimum wage, but probably with some pretty good benefits. But you know, dudes just there by themselves. So this Disney single writers dating app has been overrun by women. It's it's mostly women on there. Like, I just wanted to look for love and all these places where it should be for and they're not finding a lot of dudes, probably because dudes who go to Disney by themselves and dress up in celebratory regalia, they're probably not looking for a female companion, certainly not an adult one. And it's not every single guy. But I bet mathematically if you, if you gave him a little truth serum and a lie detector test, I don't think the results would be quite as wholesome as you would hope. So for all those single writers out there, I do hope you pair up and maybe don't have kids, because if you're going to act like kids might not be ready to raise them, this has been Kennedy Saves the World. Have fun out there. Just not too much fun where it's creepy. I'm Kennedy.

In the episode titled "Disney Adults Are Weird, Man," Kennedy delves into the intriguing subculture of adults who frequent Disney parks without accompanying children. Through a blend of personal anecdotes, sharp observations, and social commentary, Kennedy explores the dynamics of adult Disney enthusiasts, highlighting both his curiosity and skepticism.
Kennedy opens the discussion by referencing recent news about Vice President J.D. Vance and his family's visit to Disneyland in Anaheim, Southern California. He points out the political undertones of the visit, noting California Governor Gavin Newsom's sardonic remarks aimed at Vance and his family:
"California governor Gavin Newsom was trolling Vance and his family, like, 'Hope you have fun at Disneyland.'" [00:43]
Kennedy criticizes the juxtaposition of political figures enjoying a family-friendly environment while highlighting serious issues affecting families in California, such as ice raids and the trafficking of children for labor.
Transitioning from the political facet, Kennedy shares his personal experience visiting California Adventure with his daughter and her friend. He emphasizes the high costs and logistical challenges of visiting Disneyland:
"It's so insanely expensive. I took my daughter and her best friend to California Adventure... for three of us, it was like $600." [00:43]
He recounts an encounter at the park where he was unaware of the post-COVID reservation requirement:
"The woman's like, did you make a reservation? I'm like, no... luckily enough because I have a California driver's license." [00:43]
Despite the hurdles, Kennedy found enjoyment in the park, observing his children engaging with their peers while he sought a moment of relaxation.
Kennedy shifts focus to adults who visit Disney parks without children, a group he refers to as "Disney adults." He expresses his discomfort and confusion regarding their presence:
"I've always thought it was weird for people who go to Disneyland as adults. I mean, that in and of itself is weird." [00:43]
He speculates on the motivations behind their behavior, suggesting possibilities ranging from reliving fond childhood memories to unresolved issues from their past:
"Maybe you had a traumatic childhood... Maybe you want to relive that because you had so much fun." [00:43]
Kennedy likens his own nostalgic feelings from childhood activities, such as biking with friends, to the Disney adults' experiences, highlighting a common thread of seeking past joys.
Kennedy delves deeper into the societal perceptions of Disney adults, discussing the judgments they face and the judgments they pass on others:
"We all make judgments in life. And it didn't occur to me how weird the Disney adults were until I had kids." [05:58]
He observes that while personal freedoms are to be respected, there remains an inherent judgment when adults engage in behaviors typically associated with children.
To illustrate his points, Kennedy shares specific anecdotes:
Kennedy recounts an incident at an Orlando gymnastics meet where a father with a foot injury used a medical note to bypass long lines, taking 15 children ahead of others:
"He had plantar fasciitis... we went right to the front of the line because he had, like, plantar fasciitis." [00:43]
Kennedy questions the fairness of such actions, pondering whether every individual should pay extra to avoid such privileges.
Reflecting on his first visit to Disneyland as an adult at age 22, Kennedy felt a sense of strangeness witnessing adults dressed in elaborate Disney costumes without children:
"I just remember thinking, like, this is so strange. It was almost like going into a fetish community." [00:43]
He compares the sight of adults cosplaying to events like Halloween, feeling out of place and questioning the motivations behind such displays.
Kennedy ventures into speculative territory, proposing the idea of a dating app tailored for Disney adults:
"Dating app for Disney adult weirdos so they can go and enjoy the park and not be the only ones in mouse ears without kids." [05:58]
He humorously suggests that such an app should include a "sterilization kit," critiquing the potential frivolity and social implications of forming relationships within this niche community.
Additionally, Kennedy comments on the gender dynamics within the Disney adult community, noting that dating apps targeting this group tend to be dominated by women, implying a scarcity of men interested in such engagements.
Wrapping up the episode, Kennedy reiterates his stance on Disney adults, balancing his critique with a note of tolerance:
"If it makes you have a great time, it. As long as you're not cutting me off in line, I really don't care." [00:43]
He emphasizes respect for personal freedoms while maintaining his reservations about the behavior of some within the Disney adult community. Kennedy concludes with a reminder to enjoy life responsibly without crossing into uncomfortable or socially questionable territories.
This episode of "Kennedy Saves the World" offers a candid exploration of a unique subculture, blending personal narrative with broader societal observations. Kennedy's blend of humor and critical analysis provides listeners with a thought-provoking take on the phenomenon of Disney adults.
