A
The best bits of the week with Morgan Part one. Behind the scenes with a member of the show.
B
Good morning and happy 2025.
A
It's already next year, but it's still last year. I know. It's. Spoiler alert. This is 2024. But we're talking about 2025.
B
I know, but technically, right now it is January. Gosh, hold on. These are so loud.
A
What if somebody's listening to this in 1-1-1 of like, 2037?
B
They might be. Right now, it is January 4, 2025.
A
1-4-20. Wow, that's amazing.
B
Yeah. But technically we're recording this very early in December before we leave.
A
So I was gonna say if you ask me about my Christmas plans, I have no idea because it hasn't happened yet. So that's not happening.
B
No, no, we're not talking about that. We're actually gonna focus on this past year and the new year.
A
Okay. Oh, this. 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 questions one, or is this the regular one?
B
This is the regular one.
A
Gotcha. Okay. See, I was waiting for questions to come. I was looking for some, like, positive feedback. Like, Sarah and Melpedis says that, wow, Scuba See is one of my absolute favorites. And I haven't heard that yet. I'm kind of, like, fumbling and.
B
Well, you're going to have to wait for part three. Okay.
A
All right, cool.
B
Like everybody else.
A
All right, cool, cool, cool.
B
But I am bringing some questions over because we. I had asked everybody, like, New Year's related things, what they wanted us to talk about. So we've got Corin, who is like, what is the craziest New Year's Eve you've ever had?
A
Oh, man. That have been back in Winter Springs, Florida, at my friend Drew's house. I think it with the year was 2003 or 2004. It was one of those wild, wild New Year's Eve parties.
B
Yeah.
A
Where it was like something you would almost see like in a. A Seth Rogen type movie where you. 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 here for an hour and I could tell you the whole story because it's a very, very long. It's like. It's an. It's a show within itself that who but the bullet points would be. That was the first day that I. 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. That was a whole thing. Then he got his car. Stop. No, he just. He talks like this. He's from New York. He's like, hey, hey, Leave a message or I don't call you back if I want. I don't know. We'll see.
B
Okay, well, that. That turned into a little bit more New Yorker. The first one was British.
A
All right, that's my little cock. No. So. So that involves him and then his car getting stuck and then slinging mud everywhere, and then him not being able to leave and then his car breaking down. There's 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 those things, like nicknames for people that they're. That are really, really mean and probably not 2025 friendly. Oh, yeah, they weren't even 2024 friendly.
B
Um, so I'll just sound like they were even 2003.
A
No, they were cool back then. Especially outside of Orlando, Florida. No, no, it wasn't anything like. Like that. It was just, like, very, like. I don't know, not safe for work. Not safe work for sure. No way. But we had names for them, and they were not. Not mean. They were just very descriptive. So we knew who we were hanging out with.
B
Did you call these names to their face or was this. Well, nicknames behind the back.
A
Well, I think it started behind the back, but I think it sort of f. Into the. Into the forefront. At that point, everyone was so drunk that no one really even cared. And so everyone had their. Had their thing that they were doing.
B
Did you have a nickname?
A
I didn't have a nickname. No. We nicknamed these other people that we were hanging out with.
B
Yeah. I just didn't know if your friends also gave you one and you gave your friends one.
A
No, no, no. We were still. I was Stephen, he was Brent, he was Justin. I think that was the only three that had any magical moments that New Year's Eve. And that was the first time I ever drank, like, drank, drank. And I was like, this is. We drank this nasty ass, like, vodka smearing off, like, bl. That was my realization of, like, never vodka. I'm not a vodka person. I knew from then. That moment. Gross. And then, like, warm beer and, you.
B
Know, everybody has that one alcohol that they started drinking and they can never drink again.
A
Yes.
B
And that was that, like, in the beginning, where you, like, have trauma associated with whatever that alcohol is.
A
Oh, yeah. You see the girl that you think you're going to be hooking up with and your friends in the back of his other friend's Bronco while he's in the front seat of his Bronco and they're both hooking up, and the cars go. And then you're drinking all this. This nasty, gross papa off vodka, and you're like. And you start throwing up, and then you start, like, spiraling, and then you find the. 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?
B
Okay, how late were you out this night? Were you out all night?
A
We didn't sleep. We stayed up all the way into the morning. We're playing Uno from, like, maybe. That was, like, our, 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 was, like, had all the amenities, had everything. It was like, free reign, 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 like. 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 to crash around, like, in the afternoon.
B
Yeah. And how old were you? Like, around this.
A
I was 18 or 19. Oh. Then we saw those three girls later at Blockbuster because they were like, all right. Well, I think. I forget what day it was, but it was, like, somewhere near a weekend or whatever. Hey, let's go run a movie or something. All right. Let's go to the Rent 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. Same kind of thing. And it was that really awkward moment. I was like, hey. And everyone's like, hey. And everyone has, like, their 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 now worried. He thinks he gets. He's got this girl pregnant, 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.
B
Yeah, I mean, typically that at least takes a few days to have, like, true certainty over that.
A
I think so. I think maybe she was just freaking out and like, oh, my God. Just nervous and thinking, oh, my God, 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 fast forward. They didn't have a kid together, and they actually never saw each other ever again after that blockbuster moment.
B
Any of you guys ever not, you know, friend groups. But, like, did you.
A
Never again. That was like. That was like the last time. It was like, all right, see you later. And I was like, I don't think we'll see him later ever again. And then we never did, and that was it. So, yeah.
B
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.
A
Do you have core memories? Like, 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.
B
You know, honestly, I think I used to until I got Covid.
A
Oh, really?
B
It really messed with my memory.
A
Oh, damn. Okay. I didn't realize that is more than just sensory and all the other stuff.
B
No, because I used to have 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.
A
It's weird if you talk about with friends that. Do they help jog your memory? Like, oh, no, Morgan, remember, you did this. And then it's like, oh. Because, like, as I was telling you, that New Year's Eve story, that legitimate, legitimately is a. If I were to go through the details that are in my head, that's a solid one hour, if not more story. Because I can. I could tell you every single moment from the moment we got up that morning thinking about how we're going to plan this party, to the show, to getting people, then all the way to the next day at that Blockbuster meeting. I know. I remember it. It's like a flash is 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 could just think. I could just see everything.
B
Yeah.
A
So it's weird.
B
That is wild.
A
Very wild.
B
I mean, I think that's cool that you can do that, though.
A
Yeah. And I have a lot of those kind of memories that. Where I just. I start talking about it and I'm like, oh, my God. I'm like. It's like. It's like I'm there. Like one of those, like, Oculus glasses or whatever. Like. Or the. I. The Apple. Whatever they call those.
B
No, Oculus. You got it. I think Oculus is the name. Yeah.
A
But what do they call the Apple ones, though? And they call it, like, something different, like Vision Pro or something.
B
Probably.
A
Yeah.
B
Back to, like, I, again, I just can't recall things. Apple VR glasses.
A
Yeah, I think it's Apple because there was like a. It was hot for a while, then I think it definitely cooled off.
B
Vision Pro.
A
So it is Vision Pro. So I was right. Damn. I got really good.
B
Oh, there's also Meta Quest.
A
That's the Facebook ones. Yeah. Innocuous 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, anti core memory. Sorry. Means nothing.
B
That email. Yeah. Not a core memory.
A
Not a core memory at all. Actually, that email was a core memory, and I hated it.
B
Different version of core.
A
Yeah, exactly.
B
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.
A
That's totally it. That's why when I watch that movie, I'm like, oh, my God, this is me. 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. And I'm sure a lot of people, too. I'm not the only. I can't be the only person like this.
B
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 again.
A
Yeah. Or not.
B
Well, more so to get my memory.
A
I'm just kidding. I know.
B
Fun to have again.
A
I almost feel like you just need to go, like, on a memory tour and go back home and just go to the. Some of the places and bring the people that you were there with last time and just have them bring the memories back to you.
B
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.
A
You need to go back to your roots.
B
Go smell some dirt.
A
Exactly. Morgan going back to her roots. Season one, action.
B
Oh, Kansas fan. Yeah. We had a. The New Year's that I went, that I can recall, was a really fun one. We rented 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.
A
On a party bus.
B
Yeah.
A
What year was this? Like, Well, I guess. How. How old were you? College. Out of college.
B
I was. It was. I was home from college, so I want to say it was like my freshman or sophomore year.
A
Okay.
B
And so I was old enough to drink.
A
Gotcha.
B
We were going to the bars, or I had my sister's id.
A
Not sure.
B
Either way, it was around.
A
You're doing it. Yeah.
B
But, yeah, we always had party buses. That was, like, the thing back in Wichita. Not so much now, but that used to be the thing.
A
Oh, they were a thing, too, because even when I was in San Francisco, everyone was like, let's get a party bus, and then we'll go to the club. Especially if you had A big group of people.
B
Yeah.
A
Then it was kind of fun to have, like, 10 to 30 people on a bus.
B
It was so fun. I wish we did those more because it was just a fun way to get places. And you, like, nobody's drinking and driving. It's very safe fight.
A
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 gonna drop you off at your car that you came in over by Nissan Stadium, and then you're gonna drive home hella drunk.
B
Oh, yeah, that's bad.
A
Those. 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 gonna try to avoid even the roads at some point because those people are. They're getting in the car driving. They're not Ubering home, by the way. I've seen them. 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 or Sunbeat red, we're tired and we're drunk, and we're going to go drive home to Hendersonville. Yeah. You're like, what in the. But the. But the good ones are the ones where they picked you up at a. Like, your house, or everyone meets the house and then drops you up there and it's like, yeah. Feel good. Safer drinking.
B
Your driving is very, very bad.
A
Yeah. Sorry to go on a Tangen.
B
That's a song.
A
Yes. Drinking and driving is very, very bad.
B
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?
A
Is it a rap song? Is it a pop song?
B
It's a rap song, and it's like an old school. I want to say it's like Chingy or 50 Cent, but it's like, yo, I got a fake ID, though. What is that song?
A
Yo, I got a fake id, though. Oh, look, before I can even finish it, it finishes it for me and it goes. Lyrics. Oh, is it Jquan Tipsy?
B
Yeah.
A
Maybe that's. Maybe that's why it goes.
B
It goes drinking and dry.
A
Or it's good. It says, teen drinking is very bad. I got a fake id, though. Yeah. Hahaha. Yeah. With me. No. Which makes sense because Shaboo Z is. Is very, very popular and all that stuff. Yeah.
B
Yeah. Okay. Well, you know, drinking, driving is also very bad.
A
That's.
B
Yeah, but.
A
Yeah, but, yeah. Okay. Sorry I didn't go on a huge tangent. Interrupt you, but I just was so baffled by that. When I moved here. I was like, what in the hell is happening right now?
B
Yeah, no, this.
A
Is this the 90s?
B
Horrible.
A
Like, where are we? Are they mad about their seatbelts too? And. And you can't smoke a cigarette in the car with the kids with the windows rolled up.
B
I don't think anybody actually thinks through that process. You know, they go, think, okay, we got to go to this. We got to be here at this time. You go. And then you're like, oh, well, I'll.
A
Be like, we're going to Uber. We know we're drinking. We just got to Uber to the spot.
B
Well, some people plan. Yes. Others, you know, don't. And they need to do better.
A
Yeah, they do.
B
Very bad. It's never, ever worth it.
A
No, no, no. I'm not judgmental, but I am in that.
B
Yeah. No.
A
All right. Sorry to hear a railroad. Okay, so go ahead.
B
So we got a.
A
Which are awesome and fun. Yeah. Yeah.
B
We ended up, like, going out on a night in Wichita, 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.
A
Oh, that's pretty cool.
B
We, like, we're bopping around to all these two bars. But what I remember the most is that I still, to this day, scuba. I'm pretty sure somebody planted this beach vibes bar. We walked in there. I've never seen it. I've lived in Wichita 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, literally Key West.
A
Kenny. Kenny. Chestnut vibe.
B
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.
A
Okay. They 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 are so cool.
B
And we. It was so much fun. We were there when the ball dropped. So, like, everybody celebrated.
A
Oh, cool. So that's where you're at for it. Okay, cool. So you got a fun spot. The vibe is awesome.
B
Yeah, okay, But. And I had, like, a fun, random New Year's kiss that night. Like it was a vibe.
A
Okay, okay. Okay.
B
And we leave there scuba. I've never been able to find hear of this bar ever again.
A
It was almost like one of those things where, like, it was like a glitch in the Matrix and you found this place that doesn't exist or 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.
B
Literally all the above. Except I know he exists because we added each other on Facebook. He exists. But the bar for sure. Does it?
A
Or you just got so sloshed before you got to that bar and you envisioned what you envisioned, but in real life, like, it's almost like one of those things where, like, it takes off the lens and you're walking around. It's like this, like, bar where there's, like, this, like, lady's missing her teeth and she's, like, playing pool. And you see it's like this cool chick and, like, a bikini hanging out, 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 on. It looks like this hot guy, looks like kid, a Barbie doll, and they're hanging out over the beach. Life is. But in reality, it's like, whatever's going on, you start making out this guy, and this guy's like, all right, but you think it's this hot, cute guy.
B
I was on the party bus. So all bets are off. All bets are off.
A
I think there's like a. There's like a movie or something or a TV show where they. They envision one thing, but the reality of it is, like, the.
B
Isn't that shallow? How?
A
Yes, almost like shallow how. Yeah, but even. The whole reality of even, like, everything that's happening is even a different space in a different place. The people, too. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yes.
B
But that one he envisions totally different. But. Yeah.
A
So if 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.
B
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 the bar.
A
It's Wichita.
B
Yeah. And I'm telling. No, I'm telling you. I went down deep circles of the Internet trying to find this place, and I never could. And nobody even then. The best part is nobody even that was with us that night could even recall what the name was.
A
Which one here, it says, well, well hidden. Tiki Bar in Wichita. That's what it says.
B
So we do have an actual tiki bar in Wichita, though. There is one that I found, but it's not the one that we went to.
A
Okay. This one says History eight here. Oh. It's like, I guess the name of their thing this day right here. It says the Kansas Gastron on maybe. No, sorry. Lava and Tonic. Is that. Have you looked at it?
B
Lava and Tonic is really cool. But yeah. No, it's not that. Trust me.
A
Okay.
B
Deep. Like, you know me. I'm good with technology. I went to deep parts of the Internet and I couldn't find anything.
A
I do love that every town has their. 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 Chiller. 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 Slosh. They had like 35 of those slushy machines, and it was like Rumchata and vodka this and all these 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 Hamm 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.
B
Love a beer for a nickel. That's not a hangover waiting to have.
A
It was awesome. So you'd start with this 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.
B
Wait, hold on. Yeah, I'm putting in a quick break and we're coming back.
A
Okay. Yeah.
B
Okay. Three for ones. Go.
A
Three for ones @ Latitudes was awesome. So that was reminding me of Tiki Bar. It's on the rooftop of 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 Chillers. Big Belly in Latitudes. Chillers was still there for a moment. Kind of, I think, changed names.
B
Although who comes up with all these names, right? They're kind of like what everywhere has weird. Anyway.
A
Yeah, they had the pump, but that one kind of made sense because it was because of the gas station and everything.
B
But still, they're all weird names.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
B
I don't know where all the. Anyways, yeah.
A
And so it was crazy. You have that in the chiller at top level was Latitude, and it had like a tiki hut and had like the, the. The fire and the flame, and it was kind of dangerous. And three for ones. And that's where you ended the night. But if you were smart as older, you would start the night and only go to Latitude. So when I would go back to visit, we would skip. We would walk through Chill Chillers and go, oh, this is awesome. Look at all these people here. They have no idea. And big bell. You just. You don't even go in. You just walk up the stairs and keep going. And you get to the third level, you're like, we're just gonna be at Latitudes all night long. That was a spot to go. And then Taboo is a fun one. And that was owned by John Morgan, you know, Morgan and Morgan Morgan and Morgan. For the people offices. He has a bar, Orlando. He used to. I think they sold it off because that was like the massive, like awesome hip hop club. Used to be an old, like movie theater or like a theater for plays and stuff. And they, they converted it like it was sick. It was the spot to go to him and a guy named Johnny, who was a morning show guy in Orlando, he was part ownership and a couple of people, I think they sold it. But they were big investor.
B
People realize that John Morgan was like a national thing.
A
Yes, I always knew him as Orlando because 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 I didn't think much about him. I was just a lawyer there. Then I moved to Nashville and I saw John Morgan, Bill Borden. 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, but he was in Orlando. But he like all over the place now. He's in Maui and he's in LA and he's Rhode Island. Everywhere.
B
He's got that money. Money.
A
Yeah, he's got real money. I was like, man, he's big time now. So, like, this is sick. So. Yeah. So that, like, the downtown club scene was amazing, and you had their Atlanta magic, so people would go to games, and after games, you then roll over into a spot.
B
Okay, but did any of these bars you think exist, but then they really didn't?
A
No, no, because I was pretty. 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 where we were at because we picked it.
B
Listen, it's like you're 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.
A
Oh, you entered somewhere. You. Your bus went for something. Your bus was like the magic school bus.
B
Ah, yes. I love the magic school bus.
A
Yes. Wearing a yellow jacket. That's what remind me of the magic school bus. So I figured out immediately. School bus. So I was like, yo, you went on the magic school bus.
B
I did.
A
Ms. Fritz took you into a different time zone. You got the. Out of planet Earth. You went somewhere else. You don't even know where you were. And then you got back in the magic school bus to leave there.
B
Yeah, I mean, we left on. On the party bus, and I went back home, and again, couldn't find it ever again.
A
Exactly. So you didn't get in an Uber. No one picked you up. You got back on the school bus.
B
Tomorrowland. You know where they press the button.
A
Yes.
B
Which. That's the only friend of mine, because I just watched that movie for the first time.
A
Big beautiful Tomorrow.
B
Yeah. But they put on the button, and it's like this whole world, they take it off, and it's all gone.
A
Did you ever go on Carousel Progress in Orlando? Did we talk about that?
B
Yeah, you went on it.
A
So when you sit down, you see the whole thing from, like, the 1920s.
B
Yeah.
A
Or think it's the 1800s maybe. Which is weird. Like, the dog lived over 150 years. This is crazy.
B
Yeah.
A
Because it goes to the whole thing.
B
I wish they did, you know? So I'm just gonna believe that that one's true.
A
Okay. Yeah. I love that song, by the way. I can sing the whole thing too, but I don't know.
B
The Carousel Progress.
A
Yeah. 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.
B
That's so funny. I guess I didn't put two and two together. That. That was that song.
A
Yeah.
B
Because on the Tomorrowland ride in Disney.
A
They don't play it talking about the Webway. They're talking about the thing in the sky. The blue one.
B
Yeah. I can't remember which one it is. They have that ride, don't they? Making that up.
A
Yeah, the Carousel Progress or the Webway. The Blue Line.
B
Like the, the one that was inspired by Tomorrowland.
A
Yeah, the Carousel Progress. Yeah, that's the one where it's like a big. It's Walt Disney. It wasn't the World's Fair. It's that big circ building that moves. You sit like in an auditorium, in a, in a like a stadium seating and you got like the stage and it's like, it's like. Well, it's the turn of the century and Uncle Orville is like a scene where he's like the curtain opens up and he's like on like an exercise where he's exercising.
B
We didn't go in there.
A
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.
B
We did go in there for the AC at one point, but I don't think we went into that.
A
You didn't go ride the ride then.
B
We, we did did do the Carousel Progress. Cuz I remember that.
A
That's the one. That's the one where you sit down in the stadium seating and you. And. And it's like. And it's this guy who's the same.
B
Constant guy, the one that you're on. It's. It's a carousel of progress. Like you're literally on this track and you go all the way around. You kind of see a lot of the park.
A
That's blue line. So that, 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. You go around. It's like. It's like now approaching Space Mountain and you go inside Space Mountain. You can see it and it' 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.
B
Okay. That's what we were on. You're right. I didn't go sit in the stadium.
A
That's my second favorite ride at Disney World. So you're good. You're good. You just missed my first favorite.
B
Sorry.
A
Yeah, it's okay. But so. But it's okay, though, because you have. You need to go back.
B
I do.
A
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 Carousel Progress next time, you freaking go on to be hella pissed.
B
Okay. But also, as long as it's not. Not. What's the. What's the creepy one? It's a Small World.
A
Oh, yeah. You don't have to go on that ever again, do you? Go on it once. Yeah. You're good. You could have watched a YouTube video and been fine.
B
I. You're right. And I. I regretted everything when I was on that ride.
A
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 gonna hate it now.
B
It will forever 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, the best friend ever. And I will.
A
Those people hate you.
B
I will be like, how? Why?
A
Yeah.
B
Will give me nightmares for my life.
A
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.
B
It's literally that ride. Okay. That was not. That was our Disney tangent for the day.
A
Oh, we can keep going. Let's go.
B
You gotta be. I know.
A
We good? I'm going. Well, I'm going to Slash. I went to Orlando.
B
Yeah.
A
And it was awesome. I heard.
B
Are you guys potentially planning. Did you plan to go to Disney?
A
So we were looking at everything from Disney to Universal because my oldest loves Harry Potter and Jurassic park and Jurassic World.
B
Yeah.
A
Looking at those 2. Looking at Legoland and SeaWorld because of the capacity. And I know Disney 100%. That whole week of Christmas is at like 101% capacity. I don't have patience for crowds and long lines. Universal is.
B
The holidays were supposed to be the time. Is it.
A
It's after the holidays.
B
Got it.
A
It's right after the holidays. So if you were to go the second week of January when everyone goes Back to school and goes back to, you know, across 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 is pretty decent. And then February is kind of like, also meh. 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. We're not doing Disney, not doing Universal. Flash forward to next year. And we did it anyways.
B
Hey, you never know what's gonna happen.
A
Yeah. Then we're looking at Legoland and SeaWorld, because we haven't. I haven't done SeaWorld in a long time. I had, like, six roller coasters since I left, and they were looking at Legoland 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 a 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. Y'all. My reservations right now are stacked. I've been making Disney reservations for every day that we're there for food, the places I haven't been to or I want to revisit with family members.
B
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.
A
Exactly. I enjoyed it in that moment, in that time.
B
But yeah.
A
Yeah.
B
So I hope they all taste good.
A
Thank you.
B
And I hope if we do go, you have patience for days.
A
Yeah.
B
All I have for you.
A
Oh, yeah.
B
Okay. Do you have. Actually, you know what? Let's take one more break. We'll be right back. Do you have any resolutions for the new year? Do you ever do resolutions?
A
No, I really don't mean. I try. I'll say something, and I just like, the second day. And I'm like, fuck.
B
That's one way to put it. That's better.
A
Yeah. She's like, cursing. Like, try not 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. You kidding me? Like, really? And then be like, oh, man, I'm so sorry. I'm like, yeah, we just talked about this, dude. And he realizes, like, oh, yeah, I really did mess up. He won't say it one time, he did say it, 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. He'll go like, so what can I say that? I'm like, when you're 18? He's like, all right, cool. So when I'm 18, like. And then sometimes we'll be somewhere and. And I don't realize it. I'll go, oh, f. And I'll go. I can say that when I'm 18. And I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah. He can.
B
18. And just started dropping bombs everywhere.
A
Oh, it's gonna start rolling.
B
It was, like, just condensed inside of him.
A
But it's not even that. It's everything. It's like, he's like, when can I start doing this? I'm like, that's when. You can do it when you're 11. He's like, 11, got it. 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 them. 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 stuff? Or was I just trying to scoot him away to, like, leave me alone? So he, like, years down the road to not have to worry about it.
B
You might need to stop putting ages on things. You might just be like, when you're older.
A
Well, he's so damn specific. He's. I'll say that. And, like, well, what age, though? And then I'm like, 11. 12.
B
I mean, he is your son, so, yeah, it tracks. And they often say that your kids are your own karma.
A
Yeah, I know, I know. Yeah.
B
Okay, well, fair. I don't. 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. I don't know. I just don't have it. I'm like, I'm always trying to do better. Do better things, like.
A
Yeah.
B
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.
A
I feel like if you don't like trying to force it.
B
Yeah.
A
Because then it's like, then you're 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 kind of, like, enforce that.
B
Yeah. And then I get sad if I don't do it.
A
That too. Yeah.
B
I don't need to be sad over. Not of doing, like a silly thing that I came up with on a whim.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
B
Some people are really good and they're really intentional about it. Might I be like, oh, yeah, I'll do that?
A
Yeah, yeah, that.
B
That's how I.
A
And when you get to like, oh, that's pretty cool. I did it.
B
Yeah.
A
Versus, like, I've been thinking about all year and I haven't done it yet. Oh, my God, it's December 19th. Ah.
B
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 all of my flights and everything go according to plan. Barcelona. I'll be in New Year's Eve.
A
What?
B
Barcelona for New Year's Eve. And that's awesome.
A
Yo. Wow.
B
So excited. Again, all my travel goes as a.
A
Place where they have that. Have that statue on top of the hill.
B
Yes, I believe so.
A
Oh, you. If that's it, you please go there. If you don't go there, I'll be super disappointed. Like, not going to Carousel Progress.
B
Okay.
A
Or is that Sao Paul or Sao and Paul or something?
B
I don't know. You may have to confirm that it's there. I got. I still gotta put together at this point.
A
Oh, Barcelona, Spain. Sorry, I was thinking South America. You're going to Spain?
B
Yeah.
A
Oh, my God. Even better. For. For some reason, I think in South America, Spain. My friend's Cuban, which are the direct descendants of Spain. Spaniards that he constantly likes to remind me of that when he hears other people's Spanish.
B
I was like, that was oddly specific.
A
Well, something like someone would say something and I'd be like. And I' yo, what do you say? He goes, I don't know. That's like some trash. Puerto Rican, Spanish. I'm like, oh, okay. And I'm like, what? I gotta say. He's like, I don't know. It's like, I don't know what that is, dude. It's like someone 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 direct descendants.
B
Is he the bougie kind like that? I'm the.
A
I'm the best upper echelon of. Of Spanish speaking people. Cuban and people. Because they're from Spain. So I mean, I guess when you're. It's. 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, you know, it won'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 have to ask me, like, I don't know, dude. Gross. I'm like, okay. Like, I think you know what he said. Can you 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, okay, but what did he say?
B
I did not realize this is a thing.
A
I didn't realize the thing either until I was like, I think one. I think I started asking him. And I was like, we've been friends since we're like 9 or 10. I was around 14 or 15. I was like, yo, what do you say? I don't know, bro. Okay. Like, I don't know either. Like, I have no idea. Can. 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. Okay, all right. Anyway, so, so funny. Yes. But Spain's beautiful. I'll have to try to get. I'll hit him up and like, yo, tell me a couple things. Because he has, like, family. Like, family. They have, like, castle there and stuff.
B
Yeah.
A
If they know a lot about Spain and Barcelona.
B
Because I'm going in. Totally.
A
Oh, dang. Cool.
B
I have no idea.
A
Okay, cool.
B
But the. The reason I brought that up, this is 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 gonna be the compilation.
A
That's awesome.
B
That's the video idea.
A
That's badass.
B
Yeah, that'll be.
A
That's so cool.
B
My New Year's video.
A
Yeah. That's sick. So when do you. I guess when are you potentially flying out?
B
So I'll fly out the day after Christmas.
A
Okay, cool. So you do Christmas with family and then fly out? Hell yeah.
B
Yep. We're doing. And I've talked about so many times, People are gonna be annoyed of me. We're doing Brussels, Paris and Barcelona. It's like the.
A
Whoa. Paris too? And Brussels.
B
Yeah.
A
Holy crap. Yeah, we say we are. Who's weird?
B
Me and one of my girlfriends, Julia.
A
Oh, dang. That's sick. That's so cool.
B
Yeah.
A
How long's that flight?
B
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.
A
Okay.
B
I think it's a nine hour flight.
A
Oh, it's not too bad.
B
No, the flight back's gonna 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.
A
Oh, dang. Whoa.
B
Yeah, that one's a little bit different.
A
Wow.
B
Chicago and Brussels have a direct flight, so that's okay.
A
That is cool.
B
Yeah, that's.
A
And you train it when you're there to go from one place to the next.
B
Training from Brussels to Paris, Flying from Paris to Barcelona.
A
Dang. That's so cool. Yeah, that is so cool. That is so cool.
B
This is saying winter travel is crazy. So that's saying, like, this all works out and it pays out. I know, I.
A
It's going to work out well now. That's awesome. That's so freaking cool. Oh, my God, I'm so jealous. That is so badass.
B
Yeah, that's the plan. So this is why you need to go to Universal and Disney. You have your own international vacation within a theme park. Yeah, I know it's not the same, but same.
A
Yeah. I don't like lines at all and I don't like large crowds.
B
Yeah, but that's also just part of the experience.
A
Yeah, but I don't like that part of the experience. I like the experience where I have freedom to walk around.
B
You're right.
A
People bumping into me and lines are like, five, 10 minutes long.
B
You're right. But you know what? You're gonna look back and be like, dang, we did that over the holidays and the kids loved it. You're not gonna look back and be like, those lines suck.
A
Yeah, you're right. Kids don't really care. You're right. But the kids do not like long lines, so that's true too. Yeah. 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 how many people listen, I say.
B
This all as somebody who's also impatient of lying. So, like, I get it.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
B
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 gonna be bummed.
A
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. Then I came back. I was like. But it didn't feel like it was that complete. But we're missing one thing. Thing.
B
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?
A
Link me so I can see it. Sorry. You good over there? No, I got an email and he's. Someone's here, so I was just looking at something. Sorry.
B
Got it. Okay, well, let's end. Let's end on something.
A
Sorry. I mean, you're rude early.
B
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?
A
The best part of 2024 was December 31, 2024.
B
Oh, stop it.
A
Ish. Was over at 11:59. December 31, 2024 was the greatest moment of 2024. Getting out of there, Scuba. You want out of this year?
B
You have to have something this year.
A
Take me to this next year where it's already happening. Right now we're four days into it.
B
I'm going to force you to find something that you liked about this year. Year. You can do it. Do you want me to go first?
A
Yeah, you go first. I have to look for something to my email while you're going first.
B
Got it. That. 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. 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.
A
Yeah, you're on a wedding tour. You were like. You were like. You were like. Literally, it was like performing live Morgan Huelsman at your wedding. You're all over. I was like, this is really cool. It was a fun. You had a year full of a lot of, like, fun up energy, 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 getting out there and doing stuff. And then you cap it off with the ultimate getting out there and doing stuff by going to fricking Paris and Brussels and Barcelona. That's pretty freaking cool.
B
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 to, like, this ended up being one of the. The best, busiest years so far. So crazy how life works out in that capacity, but.
A
Yeah.
B
What about you?
A
What about me?
B
Well, give me something. Give me you. There has to be something good. In 2024. There was 12 months, 365 days. One of those days had to be decent. Trying to think 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 gonna push you to have something here.
A
Okay?
B
This is why I told Scuba before we get into it. Deep breath. And the sooner you tell me, the sooner you're gonna get out.
A
I'll just go. The first thing that you get out of this, you're being held hostage. I've locked that door.
B
It is. It's locked. You can't get out until you. You say something positive about your 2024.
A
I would say the first thing that comes to mind. Cause 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 was. I'm coaching for my son's basketball team that. Cause they had played together the first season in the fall in 2023, and we're kind of figuring things out. And they were gelling and they were, you Know, figuring out the fundamentals and everything. And then when they were the majority, same team, like, 80%, 90% 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 they couldn't beat last previous season. So they just felt really. They felt really good. They were, like, on a high energy high. And I was like, oh, my God, it's amazing. This coaching is so much fun. And my wife was the assistant coach. She was. 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 gonna take a break. Four minutes, whatever. And she'd talk to them for a little bit and be like, look, See? And then she'd, like, point things out for them to watch and be like, hey, see how he's doing that? Or don't do that. Like, she was also a coach, too, like, helping them to see, but also, more than anything, to, like, calm down, to get ready to come in 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.
B
Power duo.
A
Power duo. Like, we dominated. It was awesome. It was so much fun to see. And to the point where we were playing 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, I don't know who that is. And I was like, oh, that's. And I see them with the kid. Like, oh, that's the other team's parent or grandparent or, like, whatever they were. And I was like, well, 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, it's really like, oh, my God, maybe I'll be an NBA coach one day. I don't know.
B
This is on your dream to wanting to become the NBA coach with yourself.
A
Exactly. I was like, damn. Well, 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.
B
Look at that. 2024. You did have a good part of your year. I'm proud of you.
A
Yes. Thank you.
B
Okay, well, let's get out of here. Tell the people where they can find you.
A
They can find me. Well, in the new year, I think Twitter. Not Twitter. Tick tock. Tick tock is going away, right? Aren't they banning it? I mean, they've been talking about it for, like a year now.
B
Yeah, I'll. When that happens, will be the day that I believe it's finally happening.
A
Well, vine went away, so vine went.
B
Away because it just wasn't.
A
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. I would take vine over TikTok.
B
I do love vine, and there are some vine moments on Tik Tok, 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. 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.
A
And when it's gone, good riddance. No one really cares. I don't really care.
B
At least you just don't.

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 a 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, actually, those are more real than the ones where they fake make the scenario.
A
Or the fake ones, too. The same thing. The fake ones and the ones where the storytelling ones of, like, wouldn't be funny if this happened. And we'll just tell the story in your car in the parking lot of where it just happened, or the ones where it's like this hack that no one's ever Heard of before, but yet we've all heard of it from the 90s.
