Technology Infused Golf League (TGL) Discussion [03:14 – 15:22]

Overview of TGL: Brian delves into the emergence of the Technology Infused Golf League (TGL), highlighting its innovative approach to making golf more entertaining. Unlike traditional golf, TGL employs golf simulators on expansive greens within arenas, allowing famous golfers like Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy to lead teams in a dynamic and spectator-friendly environment.

Comparison with Topgolf: Brian critiques Callaway Golf's acquisition of Topgolf, suggesting that while Topgolf aimed to popularize golf by making it a game similar to bowling or bowling, it hasn't successfully driven significant club sales or broadened golf's appeal. He remarks, “Topgolf is a game. It’s like going to bowling with your friends.”

Personal Anecdotes: Brian reminisces about his golf experiences, expressing nostalgia for playing with his brothers and lamenting the high costs and time investment required for traditional golf. He humorously admits, “I’m way too old for that, first of all. Second of all, way too lazy for that.”

Viewer’s Perspective: Chris concurs, sharing that while golf has its enthusiasts, the traditional model remains exclusive and expensive, limiting its accessibility to a broader audience.

Quotes:

• Brian Green [04:32]: “Topgolf is a game. It’s like going to bowling with your friends.”
• Brian Green [05:25]: “I’m way too old for that... way too lazy for that.”

"Better Man" Movie and Robbie Williams Segment [15:22 – 20:56]

Discussion on "Better Man": The hosts transition to discussing the movie "Better Man," a biographical film about Robbie Williams, a renowned UK pop artist. The film uniquely portrays Robbie as a monkey, a creative twist intended to refresh the traditional musical biography genre.

Reception and Personal Opinions: Brian expresses skepticism about the film’s concept, stating, “I have still zero desire to see that movie even after people are saying it’s really good.” Chris adds that although he's familiarized himself with Robbie Williams through documentaries, he shares Brian's disinterest in the film's portrayal.

Animation Critique: The conversation shifts to modern CGI animation in films like Disney's "The Lion King" sequel. Brian voices frustration with the shift from traditional animation to CGI, feeling that it diminishes the emotional impact of animated films. He laments, “I just don't like it. I don't think it hits me the same way.”

Children's Perception: Brian also touches on the challenges parents face in explaining CGI elements to children, highlighting concerns about children distinguishing between reality and animated portrayals.

Quotes:

• Brian Green [16:59]: “I hate the new animation.”
• Brian Green [17:50]: “The newfangled animation really gets me. It’s too much.”

Family Adventure at Great Wolf Lodge [21:37 – 73:46]

Planning the Trip: Brian recounts planning a family vacation to Great Wolf Lodge, aiming to surprise his children with a fun getaway. Initial plans to visit Disney World were dismissed due to high costs and overwhelming crowds.

Arrival Chaos: Upon arrival, the family encounters disorganized parking and a crowded entrance, setting a chaotic tone. Brian humorously describes the scene: “It looked like they don’t... like there was a nuclear explosion going.”

Check-In Experience: The check-in process is depicted as cumbersome, with long lines and impatient guests. Brian’s irritation peaks when he struggles to navigate through the crowd, leading Astrid to expedite the check-in by directing everyone to the pool area first.

Interactions with Other Guests: Throughout the lodge, Brian observes various guest behaviors, ranging from overly enthusiastic families to solitary adults seeking solace at the indoor bars. He shares amusing and awkward encounters, emphasizing the diverse and sometimes intrusive nature of fellow guests.

Pool and Water Park Trials: The family's experience in the indoor water park is recounted with humor and frustration:

• Cold Water Pools: Despite expectations of warm water, the pool temperatures are below comfortable levels, causing discomfort.
• Overcrowded Facilities: The pool area is overcrowded, leading to limited seating and noisy environments.
• Child Safety Concerns: Brian highlights situations where uninformed or inattentive parents allow their children to play unsafely in the water, adding to his stress.

Dining Disappointments: Dinner at the lodge proves to be another chaotic experience, with long wait times and overcrowded dining areas. The hosts humorously lament the inefficiency compared to local establishments: “Frustrating to go to the local pizza place... compare that to waiting at Great Wolf Lodge.”

Final Reflections: Despite the challenges, Brian acknowledges the lodge's amenities, such as free luggage carts and various entertainment options, but remains critical of the overall experience. He praises the staff's professionalism while expressing his preference for more organized and less crowded vacation destinations.

Key Highlights:

• Quote on Check-In Chaos:

  • Brian Green [33:54]: “We call it Rockstar parking when you get that, you’re like, rockstar parking.”

• Quote on Pool Experience:

  • Brian Green [64:41]: “The first thing that you see when you open those doors is not the wave pool, it’s a bar... 40 miserably sad human beings.”

• Quote on Towel Incident:

  • Brian Green [70:37]: “Somebody took my towels. And she said, it happens all the time.”

They encourage listeners to engage through various platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and their website, emphasizing the importance of using sponsor codes to support the show.

Best to you, Chris.

[Chris Oatley]

Best to you, Brian.

[Brian Green]

Best to you out there in the podcast universe. Thanks for joining us. Hopefully we've survived Snowpocalypse. Hopefully. Fingers crossed, we've survived the Rory. The Rory McIlroy Tiger woods golf League has debuted. Chris, as we, as we were just looking at the TGL league, which is a technology infused golf league, I think is that is actually what it's called, technology infused golf league. There you go. The tgl, which basically is like they're in a golf simulator on a big green that's put in the middle of an arena and then they play as teams. So, you know, Tiger's got a team and Rory's got a team and Shane Lowry has a team and other people have teams. And they're trying to jazz it up a little bit. I think they're trying to, they're trying to make golf a little bit more fun to watch, to play. I just read this, I just watched this very long video over the break about how topgolf, bought by Callaway Golf a number of years ago, has really suffered in general. Topgolf because Callaway bought it hoping that people would then get interested in the sport of golf, go play golf and buy their clubs. But Callaway didn't think that all the way through. Because topgolf is a game. Yeah, it's a game. It's like a little, it's like going to bowling with your friends.

[Chris Oatley]

Right?

[Brian Green]

You know, I don't know, going to the roller rink or ice skating. You do it once or twice a year.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah, you have some fun at the time.

[Brian Green]

It's extremely expensive. You know, you play some games, you have fun. Everybody has seen the videos of the girls in short skirts hitting it a mile. That has made topgolf very popular because it's very popular on social media. Topgolf is. So Callaway, the biggest, largest golf company in the world, decided they were going to get in on the action and buy topgolf. So they purchased Topgolf, hoping that this would somehow lead to club sales. And it has not led to club sales because golf continues to be generally a white rich sport. It's very.

[Chris Oatley]

It costs a lot of money to play golf.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. I mean, buy a set of Callaway clubs could cost you a thousand dollars if you went in that direction. Sure, you could buy some for 350, but you're not going to get the best clubs in the world. And I guess if you're not the best player in the world, you don't need the best clubs in the world. But it just to play around a Golf is 100 fucking dollars.

[Chris Oatley]

Yep.

[Brian Green]

I used to love to go out and play golf. I would do it once or twice a week with my brothers. But then I had kids and I got poor and now, and now I don't play golf as much or at all really. I might play once a year, maybe twice a year because it's just not a great use of my time or money. I'm never going to be a professional golfer. I realized that a long time ago. I do have fun when I go out and I golf, but it takes up five or six hours of your day. You're spending a couple of hundred dollars, you feel sun baked and tired after you're done. And all I really get for it is one good shot around. Now, as they say about golf, it's that one good shot that keeps you coming back because then you think you're Tiger woods and you're. You. You figured it out. You put it all together. You're gonna, you know, shoot a second.

[Chris Oatley]

One, win at the slot machine.

[Brian Green]

That's it. You're right about that. It's. Something in our brains tells us that we've hit on something. There's some magic. We have become magical in some way. We have become lucky in some way. We've become talented in some way. It was always there. I just needed to dig it out. If I just took a couple more shots, then clearly I can get that 68 round I've been looking for and I'll be on my way to the Tour. But that's never going to happen. I'm way too old for that, first of all. Second of all, way too lazy for that. I can't put in the reps. Put in the reps. I'm lucky. I get two episodes a day in here. I mean, I can't put in hours and hours of golf. I still know some people who think they might be professional golfers someday. You know what I'm saying? And they spend a ton of money in the constant pursuit of betterment of golf. So to make golf a little bit more accessible, a little bit more fun, a little bit shorter, a little bit more, you know, I guess something that you would do on a more frequent basis is not a bad idea. Golf is a fun sport, and if you know how to swing in club, it's even more fun. Like if you can actually hit the ball, then it's even more fun.

[Chris Oatley]

Yes, that's true.

[Brian Green]

So I think, Tiger, that's why I.

[Chris Oatley]

Drive the golf cart.

[Brian Green]

Do you. Is that what you do with Jeff?

[Chris Oatley]

Drink beer?

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Do you actually have. You actually swung golf clubs?

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

You did. Didn't you and I go out a couple times?

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah, no, I have.

[Brian Green]

We used to go to that short course, remember over there, Cross Creek.

[Chris Oatley]

The executive course.

[Brian Green]

The executive course, which meant duck poop course. That's what that really meant. It was duck shit all over the course.

[Chris Oatley]

And they had the bar where you played keno.

[Brian Green]

Yes. For a hot minute, the Cross Creek Golf Course bar became my scene.

[Chris Oatley]

I know. Well, Kimmy lived there too.

[Brian Green]

Kimmy lived there. But when I was married to. To Julia, we would pop ourselves at the end of that bar on occasion. Yeah. And I'm telling you what, for a executive course, apartment. Like it was an apartment complex.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah, condo townhome apartment condo complex.

[Brian Green]

You know, you could rent them or buy them or whatever. It was old. It was built back in the 60s. It was not. But it's in this beautiful part of Atlanta in Buckhead. And despite the land being incredibly valuable, they managed to keep that shitty golf course going forever. And it's 18 holes and none of them are longer than 100 yards. So you can take a pitch pitching wedge and a putter out there, and you can just play for a couple of hours. They let you drink, they let you do whatever. There's no golf carts. You just walk around, you can pick, you get. And if you only have a putter and a wedge with you, you just bring the putter, the wedge in a six pack. That's what you do. And that's what we did a lot. I brought Chrissy out there. Rachel and I went a number of times. So you go out there and you dump around for a couple of hours. And then in the clubhouse, which is like this, something straight out of the 70s, they have a restaurant that you're gonna eat at unbelievably. And then they have a bar. And the bar is probably, I don't know, 100ft by 100ft. It's not a particularly large place, but it overlooks the golf course.

[Chris Oatley]

And people play keno.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, you play keno there. That's the only thing that people seem to Keno and old alcoholics. That's what you would find at Cross creek bar.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, there were some regulars.

[Brian Green]

Oh, man, did we have fun sometime. Go up there in the middle of the night and get a couple beers.

[Chris Oatley]

It was entertaining.

[Brian Green]

It was entertaining. If you're looking for the over 70 crowd and where they're having fun, it's at the cross creek barn.

[Joy Oatley]

What's keno?

[Brian Green]

Keno is a.

[Chris Oatley]

It's like.

[Brian Green]

It's a game from the Georgia lottery, and they play it. They put it in bars. So you get a sheet and you pick your numbers and you give it to the bartender, and they run it through a computer.

[Chris Oatley]

It's like a little gambling thing.

[Brian Green]

And then they have a screen dedicated to these balls just dropping, like electronic, like, you know, animated balls dropping on the screen with these five numbers. And if you get, you know, one number, you win a dollar. And if you get to you in 10, if you get all five, you could win, you know, $50,000 or something like that. But no one ever gets it. No one ever gets all five. But that doesn't stop some of those drunks from trying all night long.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, yeah.

[Brian Green]

The amount of money that plus place must make on that keno, I swear.

[Chris Oatley]

To God, you didn't win on the course. So maybe you can win at the bar.

[Brian Green]

No, that's right. But anyway, you dump around. That's. That. That's making golf more fun and accessible. Believe it or not, Cross creek was making golf more fun and accessible. If you could wade through the golf shit and the sandy greens, then you managed to have a good time in like an hour and a half. And you could just sit there and get drunk with your friends and head to the bar afterwards.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah, like a beautiful spring day.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Or. Or. Or a cold winter day. That was open. You know, it was open year round. What was not. What is not fun to most people is 6 hours, 18 holes, $300, where you're really struggling just to get the ball to the green. I mean, that is. It's a highly frustrating exercise. So by putting in place kind of a more fun version of this, I can understand how and why this might be attractive to some people. Essentially taking Topgolf and putting it on television with people who can actually hit the ball. And it was on espn. I was like, where. Where in the world was this debut on? It was on ESPN. And so I guess ESPN's got the rights to do the TGL Tiger woods league now. Tiger Woods. We went to putt shack recently. When last time Gustavo was in town, we went to putt shack. That was a lot of fun.

[Chris Oatley]

I love a little putt putt you. And I went to another putt putt that time. Remember the one out in Gwinnett? It was like the ship.

[Brian Green]

Yes.

[Chris Oatley]

That was so fun.

[Brian Green]

Yes. And we were hammered. We were. Oh, my God. We were out there with the Russian girl and. And Rachel, I think. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I do remember that. Oh, man, that was a lot of fun. But putt shag is indoor, and they have four or five courses in this huge facility. And then they have a bar and a restaurant, and you go there and you play games. Essentially, you can play games. They have screens and you can play games. You know, you could. It could be the who gets there the fastest or who hits the closest or whatever it is. And they have little microchips in the ball, just like a topgolf. So it can. Knows exactly where your ball is and whose ball, who's hitting whose ball. So, you know, they've kind of like, I don't know, like, commoditized golfing, so to speak. They've Vegas it up so that you can play these games of chance and games of skill and still have fun. So I don't argue it. I still do like the old traditional kind of, you know, I like the masters. I'm sorry? I like the master. Like to watch the masters. I like that tradition. I like to sit on the couch four days straight, drink myself silly, and pretend like I know which direction the ball is going to go because of the wind. That's a lot of fun.

[Chris Oatley]

I've been to a couple of those golfing events.

[Brian Green]

Me too.

[Chris Oatley]

Someone said the Open, like the. What's the one that ends at everything in Georgia?

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah, the FedEx. Yeah. Yeah. I've been to the FedEx Cup a number of times. That's a lot of fun. I've been to the masters a couple of times. I'm very lucky. Lucky enough to be at the masters. My ex wife had tickets because whatever, you know. And so I went a number of years. I remember one year I took our boss from clear Channel to the masters, and that was the most interesting seven hours of my Life, I'm sure. Imagine that guy. And imagine a two and a half hour drive there and a two and a half hour drive back.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah, that was a riot.

[Brian Green]

In my Honda Accord. In my Honda Accord. Yeah, it was. Anyway, whatever, you know, it was a.

[Chris Oatley]

That got you far.

[Brian Green]

It did. It rose me right up the corporate ladder and right out the.

[Chris Oatley]

Right out the door.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, right off the roof. I climbed the corporate ladder, I shot out the roof, back onto the street. Put that on my gravestone. Put that one on my. Make sure to get that one on my gravestone too. Anyway, so, you know, there. There you go. Watch the Tiger. Tiger Woods Golf League, I guess, is going to be the new thing we're all paying attention to. It was well received. I read a review about it and someone said it was a lot of fun to watch, that the music was loud, the facility was big, the technology was fantastic, and it was entertaining that they had a lot of fun watching it. So.

[Chris Oatley]

Okay, I'll give it a shot.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. And at about two hours long, two and a half hours long, it clocked in well under the six hours it usually takes someone to finish a round of golf. I mean, you can get it done in four hours. But let's be honest about it. Have you ever sat on a Sunday afternoon and felt like this could go longer and I'd enjoy it? No. I mean, even someone who loves golf or loved golf for a long time on television. I mean, I had a friend, Ted, and he would. Every time I'd be watching golf, he's like, I don't understand it. I don't understand how you enjoy watching a ball fly through the air with no context whatsoever as to where it's going and that going on for six hours. And I was like, I don't know. When I was a kid, I used to take a nap to it, just like my dad did.

[Chris Oatley]

Me too.

[Brian Green]

It was just one of those things. It was always on in the background, Saturdays and Sundays. And I kind of got hooked on that Saturday, Sunday, laziness. There's something slow you can go to sleep at 2pm on a Saturday afternoon. And you know, Rory's back, you know, minus six and whoever's minus seven. And you can wake up four hours later and there are three holes. You've only missed three holes.

[Chris Oatley]

I know. Well, the announcers can be funny, too.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah, They're a laugh a minute. I don't even know who the announcers are anymore. All those guys that I knew left all. You know, they're all gone. I'm just getting it. I'm getting. I'm getting to be old. I'm getting to the point where I remember the old golf announcers. I like my dad. I remember the old golf. The old golf announcers were better.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, sure, of course.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. So anyway, we'll tune into the TGL and I'll give you. I'll give you. It's on tonight. I think. So I'll give you an idea of what happens. We were also reviewing what in the world Better man is. It won a Golden Globe for something, best something or other. And we had no idea what that movie was until we started researching it here in the studio and figured out that Better man is the story, life story of Robbie Williams, the very famous pop artist from the uk. And they made his character into a monkey, reportedly because they felt like the old. The old musical biography genre was getting old and stale and they needed to spice it up a little bit so they felt like they were gonna. They wanted to.

[Chris Oatley]

And he felt like a monkey sometimes.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, he felt like a performing dancing monkey. And so that's kind of the it's iteration. I have still zero desire to see that movie even after people are saying it's really good. Zero desire to see Robbie Williams as a dancing monkey. But to Christina's dismay, Chrissy and I have no idea what one Robbie Williams song. Oh, you do? Oh, okay.

[Chris Oatley]

Well, no, I know who he is now because there was. I was talking to Christina about. There was a whole documentary. I think it was five parts, six parts, something like that about his life. That's how I learned about him. But I did not know about him before. He's a big deal.

[Joy Oatley]

Crazy to me. I was like Robbie Williams household name.

[Chris Oatley]

We didn't grow up in the uk.

[Brian Green]

Neither did I. Well, it's true.

[Chris Oatley]

But your mom did.

[Brian Green]

But your mom did. Yeah.

[Joy Oatley]

It makes more sense as to why, you know, I haven't seen what a Christmas Story, but I know who Robbie Williams is.

[Brian Green]

Exactly. Now when I see Robbie Williams face, I know who he is and I know I've listened to his music because I know I've seen his videos before, but I don't like. I don't feel any affinity toward it. Obviously he's not like an artist that I follow, but I didn't know he was famous enough to have a biography made about it. But then there you go. Maybe, I guess if you turn somebody into a monkey, I guess anything can be good. You know what I'm saying? You know, they say never work with kids or monkeys. That's the old adage. And Hollywood, like, maybe that maybe we're turning a corner on monkeys. Chrissy, after animated, after chimp crazy, maybe we're. What is that chimp crazy crazy.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, yeah.

[Brian Green]

After.

[Chris Oatley]

That was crazy.

[Brian Green]

That was a crazy documentary. Not as crazy as Lion King.

[Chris Oatley]

Tiger King.

[Brian Green]

Not as crazy as Tiger King.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah.

[Joy Oatley]

Not as crazy as the Lion King.

[Brian Green]

Or the Lion King. Or the Lion King. The Lion King sequel or prequel, which is making billions of dollars at the box office. And I somehow still. I also have no. I think. I don't think I have any desire to see CGI animated animals doing anything at all. I. I'm. I feel so angry with Disney. Angry I do. That they have taken an entire category of films that I loved so much as a child or that I watched and I liked, and they've changed it into this CGI bullshit. I just. I don't know. I don't like it. I don't think it. It doesn't hit me the same way. I'd rather watch the old animation, to be honest with you. I guess I'd. Look at me. I'm officially an old man. On this episode of the commercial break. I don't know who Robbie Williams is. I hate the new golf. I remember the old broadcasters, and now I don't like the way the newfangled animation is. I hate it.

[Chris Oatley]

New fangled.

[Brian Green]

The newfangled animation really gets me. It's too much. My eyes can't keep up. They're old eyes. I just wish Disney would do, like, an actually animated film again. Like a film that's an animated, you know, something that they actually draw. People draw. You know, think about all those animators out there that were so talented, that worked for Disney and creating all those things, and now they just, you know, film a lion out in the wild and then make it do hippity hoppity tricks. You know, now they're dabbing. They're the. The lions are dabbing cgi. I give a fuck. No, I don't. I'm too old for that. But. But I will say this. I do appreciate. And, you know, my kids don't like the CGI animated movies. Like the Jungle Book. No, they didn't like the Jungle Book, which was. Have you seen the animated Jungle Book? The animated Jungle Book. I know Jon Favreau put his heart into that, but I'm sorry, it's terrible. I didn't like it. And they just don't like those, like those CGI animated films. They still like the cartoon animated films. Like Lilo and Stitch and, you know, Little Mermaid, stuff like that. Those are the ones. So I don't know who's. Who is buying $2 billion worth of tickets to see this brand new prequel of Disney's that's. That's animated like this? I don't know. There's a point where it goes too far and you just need to say to yourself, do I need to spend $36.50 per ticket to watch Simba as an animated little dude falling off a waterfall? That's scary for children when they're animated. There's supply ability in the world. You can say to yourself or you can say to your children, it's not real, it's a cartoon. But some of my children are already having a hard time understanding the difference between cartoons and reality tv. You know, they're like, is this live? Is this real? Does this happen like this? So when an actual lion or it looks like an actual lion is falling off a waterfall and dying or getting hurt, I have a. How in the world am I going to explain this? And who are these parents who are sending their children to watch real animals get hurt?

[Chris Oatley]

I don't know. You've got a different perspective, I think.

[Brian Green]

You're all terrible parents. You're terrible parents. You should be ashamed of yourself. You should watch golf the old way. You should know who Elton John is before Robbie Williams. And you should watch the old Lion King where you can explain to your kids the blood is just someone drawing on a piece of paper, not an AI simulator. All right, did I. Did I sound old enough in that segment?

[Chris Oatley]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

Yes. All right, now that I sounded old enough in that segment, let me tell you, let me sound even older in the next segment as we talk about my trip to the Great.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, I'm so excited. All right, we'll be back.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I go for the old double thumb typing.

[Chris Oatley]

The old BlackBerry.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Now that we're talking about how old I am.

[Chris Oatley]

Yes. Keep it going.

[Brian Green]

We're talking about how I still use two fingers to type. And Chrissy, just. Chrissy, who just figured out what Instagram was in 2024, can do all the swipe of the newfangled Apple iPhone swiping to complete her sentences. My fingers are so fat, it won't do that. So, I mean, you should hear Astrid often complains that she can hear me typing in the next room because I'm like, click, click, click, clack. Click, clack, clack, clack, click, clack. I'm beating it like it owes me money. Like, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack.

[Chris Oatley]

I know. On the platform.

[Brian Green]

Yes. All right, so over the weekend, you.

[Chris Oatley]

Had an exciting adventure.

[Brian Green]

Gustavo and Ale are here, and one of the kids has a birthday coming up. And so Astrid came to me a couple of weeks ago, and she said, what if as a surprise, we take the kids on a little vacation? And I said, yeah, sounds like a great idea. Let's get, you know, the kids are off for three weeks. Let's get them out there and do something that keeps them occupied for a day or two.

[Chris Oatley]

You got to.

[Brian Green]

And we bantered around a lot of ideas, and all of those ideas we decided not to do because this show doesn't make any money, so we can't afford it. So we were like, you know, down to Florida. Now that's too expensive to Disney World. No, fuck that. We've done that New Year's Eve Disney thing before, and it just is not. It is so incredibly crowded down there. I don't know if I've told this story before. I'm sure I have because I've told every story in the commercial break.

[Chris Oatley]

But I think I remember this.

[Brian Green]

We went one year for New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, and Astrid's birthday, which is the second. We went one time down to Disney World for that and we didn't get. We spent the entire day there and we did not get on one ride. Not one. The average wait time was three hours. The average wait time was three hours. The big rides were four or five hours. There were some rides that didn't even have wait times posted because I don't think they knew exactly how long it was going to take for the last person to get in the door instead.

[Chris Oatley]

Of like, you can't afford. Afford it.

[Brian Green]

Yes. You just can't. Yeah. Listen, if there's no wait time, if the wait time doesn't say zero minutes, it just means it's way too long. And actually the fire marshal closed the Magic Kingdom, where we were closed the Magic Kingdom minutes after we got in the door. So we got there at like 9:00, 9:30 in the morning.

[Chris Oatley]

Just in the nick of time to ride.

[Brian Green]

Just in the nick of time to get no rides. And we stayed there till the fireworks. And we ended up spending 4, 5 hours standing in one place to get a good spot for the fireworks. So around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, because we noticed everybody was starting to gather to get their spot for the fireworks. We also did the same thing like a bunch of morons and stood there waiting for the fireworks. We would take turns standing.

[Chris Oatley]

Were they spectacular?

[Brian Green]

They were not as spectacular as the weight would indicate.

[Chris Oatley]

This was a bust all around.

[Brian Green]

Well, no, because everyone is now a fucking shithead. So they all sit on top of each other's shoulders and, you know, everyone's filming everything and they got their phone in front of your face and it's just like, it's like everything that includes crowds or other human beings these days, there's a certain amount of misery that comes around, comes with being around the human race. And that is my assessment of the Great Wolf Lodge. Like everything in life, there is a certain amount of misery that comes with other human beings.

[Chris Oatley]

Right. I'm so excited to hear the.

[Brian Green]

The Great Wolf Lodge was what we decided on. We looked at the Great Wolf Lodge. As long as we've been guests, I've.

[Chris Oatley]

Heard about the Great Wolf Lodge opened.

[Brian Green]

About five years ago. I think I've seen the commercials. Sometimes you see the commercials. They have many locations throughout the country.

[Chris Oatley]

It's called indoor swimming.

[Brian Green]

It's an indoor water park.

[Chris Oatley]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

But it really, what they call it is an indoor adventure park.

[Chris Oatley]

Because it's a tree dish.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yes. And what it really is, is an indoor bird flu incubator that's really what it is. A Covid 19D day. It is not just a water park. Well, let me explain. So we decide on this and you know, okay, we've been looking at it for five years. It's been open for about five years. Too much fanfare. We got a Great Wolf Lodge. It's not in the city. It's about an hour and a half outside of the city near Alabama. And so we go Astro, you know, looking as she does as the vacation planner. She looks through all the options and the sales and the details. Okay, let's go on a Sunday, it's a little bit cheaper. Kids have off school on Monday. And she finds this deal for. There are three kinds of rooms there. There's the great, the Wolf adventure room or whatever the fuck you call it, which has a king size bed and then some bunk beds that are like built into the wall in a little tree house. Cute, cool. Kids love that. There's the second type of room which is there's actually two rooms, Two queen size beds in one room. And then they have the little shitty bunk beds that are built into the wall in a tree house. And then they have the rawr suite or whatever the we're gonna get you this time suite. Here comes your credit card suite with two, three rooms, one living rooms, kitchenette, two bedrooms, pull out couch, the whole nine yards. So we do this because we have a lot of people with us and we said, better than two rooms, let's just get one and we can all stay in the same room. So we get in the car early.

[Chris Oatley]

The same bathroom.

[Brian Green]

Well, there's two bathrooms. Luckily there's two bathrooms. Luckily. Luckily Brian can shit in peace. I don't like to be bothered when I shit. I get, I've got, I've got stage fright when it comes to pooping. And so if I have to poop in a room with other people that I don't know, I don't do it. I just, I would rather go down to the bacteria laden pool bathroom and take my chances with herpes simplex A on my asshole, then poop in front of other people. So, so we get in, you know, so we decide, oh, and here's the deal. So you can, and once you book your room, you got to put a deposit down. But once you do that, you can go there at any time the day of your check in and you can check in, get your wristbands and go and enjoy the pool even though the, the rooms are not ready until 4:00. Now I have Seen videos online about Great Wolf Lodge and I knew enough to know that the check in process can be a little bit hairy. That oftentimes there are many people standing in line at one time to check in. Even though they have 30 people checking people in. It's like, like Las Vegas when, when there's big hotels and everybody's checking in at the same time, especially on crowded days, on vacation days, you're gonna wait in line. Take your, bring your patience. Everybody packs in the old truckster, all 35 plus family roadster. And we had an hour and a half, no traffic, lovely drive. We get there relatively quickly and we pull up to the Great Wolf Lodge. That is literally in the middle of nowhere. But right. But on the road leading to the road to the Great Wolf Lodge there has popped up a Home to sweets, a McDonald's chick fil, a Wendy's, a QT. You know, there's the signs that everybody else is looking to profit off us idiots who are spending way too much money on the Great Wolf Lodge. I should also share with you that Astrid and I had a conversation. We decided because the Great Wolf Lodge is really in the middle of nowhere and we only have one night and we're probably not going to want to leave to go eat something. We should get one of those Ed packages, you know the ra. You know the Wolf Paw package where you two, you spend $130 and get $132 worth of food. Whatever it is, you get a four dollar discount and they encourage you to buy it ahead of time. So we did. We get to the Great Wolf Lodge and instantaneously the shitheads are ablazing. The shitheads are out in full force and I'll explain why. We turn this corner and you got a ride down a rather long road, half a mile and then you got to. And then you got to turn into the Great Wolf Lodge. It's got a big side Great Wolf Lodge and you go in there and then it's probably a quarter of a mile long road to get to the actual like portico right where you can either valet park your car or you can take around the circle and go self park.

[Chris Oatley]

Picturing people throwing the keys. Ding.

[Brian Green]

Chrissy. Throwing the keys would have been an improvement to what these assholes were doing. We get there and we're like 15 cars away from the actual roundabout.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, you had the line to like get up to the.

[Brian Green]

We had the line to get up there. The roundabout is chaos. There are cars parked sideways in the roundabout. I don't people. It looked like they don't, like, I don't know, like there was a nuclear explosion going. Yeah. They're like, ah, get out. Get check into the bacteria laden pool quickly. We got the day to spend. We ought to get there now. People were just getting out of the car right there in the line to the line to the parking lot. People were exiting the car and taking out their bags and just walking up to the front door. And I thought to myself, here we go. As soon as we pulled in, Brian's irritation level runs, runs to an 11. Astrid's already calming me down. It's okay, it's okay. We'll get there. We got the whole day. She knows me so well. But as everybody's getting out of their car, I said, take the kids, get the kids, get to safety. Get away from the. Get away from me and the other assholes. Immediately. Get everybody out of the car. Don't worry about the bags. We can't check in for another 12 hours anyway. Or we can't get our room for another 12 hours anyway. Just go and get in. So what she does, she grabs everybody. She grabs the kid. And it takes me about, I don't know, about 10 minutes to weave my way through parked cars sideways. There's a big sign, Chrissy, right under the portico. It's like five lanes across this portico. And it says valet parking these two lanes. Valet parking this left lane or super premium parking this lane. These two lanes. Do not stop in this lane. There's a sign hanging from the ceiling. There's two signs, like on those, you know, little coney things, you know those. It says do not stop in this lane. I get. Finally managed to make my way to the portico. I can see this self parking button. I can see that gate. I'm almost pressing it until some yahoo runs out in her bathing suit. 42 degrees, by the way, A sight to behold. Runs out in her bathing suit with her big 711 big gulp in her hand to have a full conversation with the lady in the car in front of me. I am stuck. I am going nowhere. Why? I don't know. We're talking about what flavors of slushy 711 has on sale today or how wonderful the pool is. I'd love to get there first. Could you please move out of the fucking. Oh, I have my hand on the bp. I have my hand on the bp. But the lady eventually, like looked back at me and I think she could see that I had no, like a. Like, I'm not fucking around.

[Chris Oatley]

People alert. People are.

[Brian Green]

She looked at me. She had a few more sentences. She looked back at. She had a few more sentences, she looked back, she had a few more sentences. And then finally, the lady who was driving stuck her head out of the window, looked back at me. And then she was, like, waved. Like, we're five minutes into her fucking conversation. And at this point, I'm like, smoke a cigarette. Why not? I mean, let's finish what you're. Can I talk?

[Chris Oatley]

Can we all ask me.

[Brian Green]

Want to play poker? We're all trying to get into that pool so we can get sick. Can you. Yeah, please, can we hurry? I get over there, I get into the lane, I press the button in the park. The parking situation is an immense clusterfuck. It is the biggest parking lot you've ever seen in your entire life. And it's just chaos. It's got arrows about which way you're supposed to go, but no one's paying attention to the arrows because God forbid they thought they saw a parking space somewhere. It is like the mall on Christmas Eve. You know what I'm saying? People are following people out. You know?

[Chris Oatley]

Are you leaving?

[Brian Green]

Even you're leaving? Yeah, but I'm six miles that way. I don't care. I'm gonna follow you. Well, I got lucky. And I managed to see someone pulling out. Like, in the last spot, I saw them pulling out. And just by, like, the parking gods kissed my face because I managed to park relatively close to the building, to an entrance. And there's, like.

[Chris Oatley]

It's so good when that happens.

[Brian Green]

I know. Yeah. We call it Rockstar parking. When you get that, you're like, rockstar parking, and we're relative. I'm relatively close to one of the four entrances to the Great Wolf Lodge Advent park, which is what it says on the door, Great Wolf Lodge Adventure Park. So I park, and I run in, and I find Astrid. The kids are already at the gift shop. They're already, like, moving toward the gift shop.

[Chris Oatley]

Of course. And by the way, those gift shops get everybody.

[Brian Green]

I've now had to prep my kids anytime we go anywhere. Like a Chuck E. Cheese, a Six Flags. A what? A water park, anything like that. And here's the conversation that go that I said, and they already know what I'm talking about. I don't even have to preface the conversation. I say, don't even ask. Don't even ask. But, Dad, I want a lightsaber with a wolf on it. Don't even ask. If you ask, we're gonna go home. Do you want to go home? Do you want to sit in the car the whole time. I'm now you, I'm now. I've now decided that I'm using my parents tactics.

[Chris Oatley]

Of course you are.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I'm being a bully to stop the bullying. You know what I'm saying? Do you want to sit in the car the entire time we're going home? You want to go home? It's not that far to drive and everybody else can have fun and you can stay here. If you ask for that fucking lightsaber one more goddamn, everybody else can have fun and you and I will go sit. Do I get to watch tv? Was one of my kids responses. No, no tv. I don't want to go home. Okay, then. No. Can we go look? No, I know what looking leads.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh yeah.

[Brian Green]

Looking leads to asking me for everything. But then I'm a big softy so that I say, okay, we can go look. And then, you know, of course they say, can I buy something? I buy it, right? Okay. What? Whatever. This time I, I held strong though. I didn't buy anything from the Great Wolf Lodge except for everything. Except for those shitty little things. So we're all in this, in this gift shop. The line is immense to get in the place. It is just everybody, chaos everywhere. There are people in bathing suits, guys with T shirts off, girls with.

[Chris Oatley]

Does it have that smell indoor? Yeah, the indoor humidity. Humidity.

[Brian Green]

But to me that's a comfort because I know that chlorine is bleach and bleach kills most things, right? So I'm like, if I can't smell it in the parking lot, I'm getting concerned. Do you know what I'm saying? I'm willing to deal with bloodshot eyes for the next six to 12 days as long as I don't get gonorrhea of the mouth. Because I went swimming at the indoor pool. So when you walk in, it's just this huge lobby, lobby. And in the lobby, after we get out of the, after we get out of the, the gift shop, they lead.

[Chris Oatley]

You through the gift shop to go.

[Brian Green]

No, no, no, no. The gift shop is across the way from the check in.

[Chris Oatley]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

I think they keep the check in purposefully like I think they keep the, the check in a little purposefully slow. Like it is a long check in.

[Chris Oatley]

Process for many different reasons.

[Brian Green]

Go look at the gift shop exactly like one of my kids is doing right now. And so they. I know the kids run down the hallway and you can hear every step of these microphones. Yeah, it is with purpose. I gotta put like, you know, piece of paper or something. I don't know, like a big pillow under this or something.

[Chris Oatley]

I always wonder what she's running to.

[Brian Green]

Well, she runs with her heels. That one is a heel runner. So you know when she's coming down because you. It's a heel run. Right. Some of my other kids run on their tiptoes, and it's a little. It's a much different sound. So they keep that gift shop right across from the check in, across the lobby from the check in. And then midway between those two is a little area with a couple of Christmas trees, and they have Wolfie the wolf. Wolfie the swimming wolf or whatever it is. Right. Character. So we get out. I've got my kids. I'm holding my youngest hand. She's walking across, and she sees that Wolfie the swim, swim wolf or whatever it is. And she stops, terrified, dead in her tracks. Yeah, she is like. And I go, oh, do you want to go see Wolfie the swim, swim wolf? No.

[Chris Oatley]

It's scary.

[Brian Green]

And she can't move. I'm like, trying to get her to move, and she won't move. She's just staring at Wolfie, Wolfie the swim, swim wolf. And so eventually, now I'm dragging my child across the lobby. She's like this. And I'm dragging her, and she's still staring at Wolfie, Wolfie the swim, swim wolf. And I'm like, it's okay. It's just a pretend character, you know, it's okay. Everything's okay. She's a friendly wolf that'll kill you.

[Chris Oatley]

Cgi.

[Brian Green]

It's like the new Disney movie. Yeah, it's like the new Disney movie. It'll bleed real blood if you heard it. So. So then it's clear that Astrid and Gustavo and Ali are standing there. It's clear that we are nowhere close to check in. It's. We're at least the 30 minutes away from this. So I say to the kids, let's go on an adventure and go see what this place has to go check it out, because it has a big sign and it's like adventure park this way. And I know they have more than just the pool, so I'm interested to kind of see what the setup is. Right, of course you are. Yeah. You're at a resort. The slides and all that other stuff. Chrissy, I turned that corner, and it is a hellscape. It is a hellscape of Americana. A hellscape of Americana. People in bathing suits, dripping wet, smelling like bo feet with gangrene spilling out of all kind of clothing.

[Chris Oatley]

There's gotta be a bomb.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. You know, ladies with, you know, nipples hanging out and not in the way you'd want. Like, just, like, everybody hanging out at the bar. It's this huge hallway, and the hallway is immense. And in the hallway, there is a Dunkin Donuts, an ice cream shop, a Build a Bear.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, God.

[Brian Green]

A pizza place, ropes course, a miniature golf, a restaurant that sells tacos. It's a lot of stuff. It's pretty big, actually. It's a place pretty big. A huge arcade. Like, a huge arcade. So I have two thoughts. Number one, I hate all these people. Get me out of here. And number two is at least we have something to do for the next 24 hours. At least my kids will be entertained. And when you're a parent, that's a big deal.

[Chris Oatley]

It is.

[Brian Green]

When you know you can wear your kids out and not have to leave where you're sleeping, that's a really big deal. Like, try and do that at this house. They've already. They've already seen everything there is to see about this house. They're gonna get bored real quick. You know what I'm saying?

[Chris Oatley]

Stimulation.

[Brian Green]

They need new stimulation. So all I do is walk my kids up the hallway and back down the hallway. We see the pool. I can see it. I see it through the glass doors. I can see that my life is gonna be a nightmare for the next little bit.

[Chris Oatley]

But you're preparing yourself.

[Brian Green]

The kids. Yeah, the kids. All of a sudden, they're starting to act scared. They're like, dad, I want Mommy. And I'm like, why do you want mommy? Your daddy's right here. And. And she's like, no, I. I want Mommy. One of my kids is like, no, I want mommy. This is. It's too loud in here. It's too much in here. You know, I don't want to go to the pool by myself. And I'm like, you're not. Who's gonna send you to the pool by your. I'm your dad. Yeah, I'm your dad. Hey, get out there. Tackle that water slide, kid. What are you, 16 inches tall? Get out there. Tackle it. All of a sudden, I can see that my kids. It's, like, overload for them. It's too many people. It's too many noises, too many lights, too many things to think about seeing or doing at one time. I have made the. The very big error as a parent of not easing my kids into it. I just let them go right forward. That's why, and I've said this before in the past, that's why I think Disney World is maybe not the greatest place on earth for small children, is because it's overload. There's too many people, too many things to do, too many things to see. They get like their little brains can't take it. You can almost see the smoke coming out of their ears. So I quickly rush them back to Astrid, to Mommy. She is getting ready to check in to the room. And what happens next will surprise everybody. Let's take a break. Let's take a break and I'm going to share with you my experiences at the Great Wolf Lodge Water park, or whatever they're calling it these days. When we get back.

[Joy Oatley]

So. So we're here at the Great Wolf Lodge. So we get up to the checkout, and then Astrid kind of throws me into the, you know, she kind of throws me the checkout situation. That's fine. I'm. I'm okay with that. And so I'm talking to the lady who's very nice, by the way. You know, I'm talking to the lady at the front, and she says, well, well, listen here. Here's the deal. You can use the pool anytime you want to. You got a. She's giving me, like, the rundown. You go to the pool, you get your towels. If you don't return them, they're $15 a piece. And I'm like, $15 a piece to not return the pool towels. Okay, I guess I gotta.

[Chris Oatley]

That's an incentive.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, that's an incentive to return your pool towels. And she says everything happens on your wristband. So who do you want to have charging privileges on your wristband? Great Wolf Lodge is a cruise ship. That's what it is. It's a cruise ship. And just like every cruise ship in the world and now every theme park in the world, they have figured out how to part you with your money more efficiently by making sure it's a cashless cruise ship. You have no cash. They take no credit cards. You must boop your wristband. That's the only way you get anything anywhere in this place. And so instantly, I know I'm fucked. This, you know, 300 vacation that we're supposed to take is going to turn into a thousand dollars in a heartbeat. And I know from the looks of this place that it's going to be not easy to leave to get food at a Wendy's or whatever. We're going to have to eat here.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah, Once you're there, you're there, Tracy.

[Brian Green]

I already know I'm about to get ass fucked by this great Wolf Lodge. I want to bend over and have Wolfie the swim, swim wolf stick his little wolf dick in my ass. I probably would have felt better about the whole situation.

[Chris Oatley]

And so she says, you should have been scared.

[Brian Green]

I was.

[Chris Oatley]

When you saw Wolfie earlier, I was scared when I pulled you and your daughter.

[Brian Green]

Yes. I was scared when the people in the Chevy Corsica in front of me got out with all 14 of their Kroger bags containing their luggage.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, God.

[Brian Green]

Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, it was a crowd. And listen, it was all kinds of people. It wasn't. You know, it was all kinds of people. And it was. It was a good mix of society, which is a terrible mix of society at any day and age here in 2025. So the lady puts the wristbands on. We put the wristbands on. And, you know, you've got the adventure pack. So you can do whatever here. She says, you can do whatever you want. You can do the mini golf, you can do the strings court, the ropes course. You could do the rock climbing, you could do this, you can do that. It's all included in your Gray Wolf Adventure great super premium wolf package. And I'm like, okay, that's great. Good thinking. All right. We can do something besides swim in that disgusting pool. And she goes, there's your room. Type. I have a room available right now, actually, if you'd like to take it. And I was like, oh, really? Yes, of course. Because we don't have our bathing suits on. We prepared for that. We made a bag. But I'm thinking if I don't have to take. Take my socks off and step in somebody else's defecation in the bathroom of the indoor pool at the Great Wolf Lodge, then I'd prefer to do that. At least I take my chances in the hotel room, which I know is probably equally as disgusting, but at least.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah. Did you bring shower shoes?

[Brian Green]

I brought bathing shoes. I brought swim shoes for the kids. And I wore sandals. Listen, these feet, they've seen it all. They have been to war. They've been to a fish show, okay? There's nothing the Gray Wolf Lodge can throw at it that it's not already seen. I have layers and layers of filth on the bottom of my feet that are never coming off. And chlor. No amount of chlorine is going to make it better. It's whatever. I'm okay with my own feet. I'm an adult. I figure I can handle it. I know I don't have any open sores or cuts on my feet, so I figure I'll take my chances. I'm not gonna wear swim shoes. I don't like them. So she says, okay, fourth floor. And I. Okay. All right. Sure. Yeah. Okay.

[Chris Oatley]

Only the best.

[Brian Green]

Only the best. Only the best for you, sir. You reserve the premium RA package. You can go on the rope course at a discounted price because you bought the ARRR package. You get two chlamydia filled rooms with the ARR package. Your air conditioning will blow cold air all night long with the RAWR package. Okay, great, Wonderful rooms this way to the left, fun that way to the right. Enjoy your stay. I said, okay. She goes, and if you want it, everybody has to be out by 11, but you can get late checkout 2pm Just call down here.

[Chris Oatley]

Remember this, okay?

[Brian Green]

I said, okay, great. So. And she goes, and you have all day today and all day tomorrow to play. You. You. You can, if you want to check out, put your stuff in the car, you know, come swim, do whatever. Take advantage. You got 48 full hours of fun. We're not going to ask you to leave. And I was like, well, thank God, because you've already charged me $8,000 for this shitty thing. At least give me the dignity of swimming in that, you know, toilet water for a little bit longer. So we. I say, kids, great news. You know, I feel like a hero. You know, you feel like a hero sometimes, like you did something magical. You're like, kids, great news. Rooms ready. Everybody's excited about that. I run, I grab the bags. By the way, the one thing I will say, the Great Wolf Lodge did really smartly. And they probably learned this over the years because there's many locations throughout the United States, not just here in Georgia. The one thing that they do really smartly is they have the luggage carts. You know, the. The push luggage carts like they do at the airport. And they have hundreds of them all over the property. And they're free, so you don't have to pay for them.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, that's nice.

[Brian Green]

So you eat out in the parking lot, inside the building, upstairs on the floors. They have them everywhere so that you have the convenience of not having to drag everything up and.

[Chris Oatley]

Including in parking spaces.

[Brian Green]

Yes, that's correct. Well, I mean, I didn't see too many in parking space because all the car. Because all the parking spaces were full. And I gotta tell you something. While I had no intention of spending one more day at the Great Wolf Lodge. It would appear some people were there for the month. The amount of luggage that they were bringing into the facility. And they'd have like one kid in tow and they were bringing like two, three luggage carts full of shit. I thought to myself, how long can you stay at the Great Wolf Lodge? This isn't Disney World in Florida. This isn't a 10 day vacation. You do this one night and I'm sure it's good. I'm about to find out, but I'm sure it's good. Anyway, so I get the luggage card, I go and I meet everybody up at the room. The room is big, it is nondescript. It is not anything to write home about. It's relatively clean in the sense there's.

[Chris Oatley]

A bunch of wet bathing suits and kids running all over Chrissy.

[Brian Green]

The carpet is seen its better days, but it's dark colored, so at least I know that. Yeah, most of the blood, semen and fucking puke is, you know, mixed in with the colors of the floor.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

But it is not the worst thing in the world. It's like, it's like a kind of dirty home to suites. You know what I'm saying?

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

But we have a view. The way the building is a big U, so the lobby is in front, the rooms are on one side, the pool and everything else is on the other side. So we have a view of the, the outdoor pools and the glass walls of the indoor water park. So get up there. There's a room with a king bed. Astrid's like, you take the king bed, baby. I, I know you're, you're gonna need that after, after today you're gonna need something to look forward to. And I was like, you, you're an angel. And I open those curtains and what do I see? I see a couple things. I see a half empty outdoor pool that's pretty big, but not huge. Half empty outdoor pool. By the way, it is cold outside. It is like 30, 33, 34 degrees outside. I see a hot tub, a 50 person hot tub. I've never seen a hot tub this big in my life. And there are 55 people in it of varying shapes and sizes, colors and creeds. It looks like a real party in there.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, yeah.

[Brian Green]

And most of those people are adults. And most of those adults have yard drinks in their hands. And I am like, like the senior frog. Yes.

[Chris Oatley]

Cancun.

[Joy Oatley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

I can see the neon drinks from two football fields away where I'm, I'm like, I'm looking at this and I'm like, do they sell yard beers here? They sell yard drinks.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh, yeah.

[Brian Green]

That's insane. It's the Great Wolf Lodge. I guess you could look at it one of two ways. Either you're a real fucking alcoholic when you're drinking a yard drink at the outdoor sauna or spa at the Great Wolf Lodge in the middle of winter in Georgia, or that's what you have to do just to get.

[Chris Oatley]

That's what you have to do.

[Brian Green]

There's also a playground outside, a little outdoor playground that's attached to this kind of outdoor pool area. And there are parents and children that are on that playground in their bathing suits. People are weird. I mean, just like, what are you thinking? Anyway? Okay, kids, hurry up. Get your bathing suit curtains again real quick. I did. I closed them real quick. Yeah, well, I didn't want to. I already knew what was coming. I. It's like that one time I went to jail. I didn't want to think about jail before I went to jail. You know what I'm saying? Like, I didn't want to think about it before I went there. Listen, I had a high hope, and when I say high hopes, I mean I hoped that at least I could have a little bit of fun with the kids. That was my hope, is that they had fun and I had a little bit of fun with them. And that would make it. That would make the trip all worth it. We get on our bathing suits, we go downstairs.

[Chris Oatley]

It's exciting moment.

[Brian Green]

It's exciting moment. The kids, they're all excited. They got their daddy. Will you swim with me? Do I have to wear a life jacket? I said, no. You know, if this is where we go, this is where we go. I said, hey, listen, no, just stick close. You know how to swim. We'll figure it out. And then we get to that little, you know, the little turnstiles, and we pop in those big open doors that are all fogged because it's, you know, different temperature here than it is there. And as soon as we open those doors, it's like the soup of a million sweaty bodies. Just stick to you.

[Chris Oatley]

That's a picture.

[Brian Green]

And the first thing that you see in the first thing that you see when you open those doors of the Great Wolf Lodge is not the wave pool, is not some fascinating, exciting, thrilling water slide you're gonna go down. It's a bar, a tiki bar rising up out of the middle of this cement jungle. It's all cement. It's one big CE pad with pools and lazy rivers and splash parks and Kids, pools and all this other stuff. And there in the middle, just like 50, 60ft in front of you is a bar with like 40 seats to it that go around it. It's not in it. It's not in the water. It's out of the water. And all I can see out of the 40 seats that are around that bar are 40 miserably sad human beings sitting and drinking at the Great Wolf Lodge indoor water park bar.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh yeah.

[Brian Green]

You have had to have had a really rough life or at the very least a rough day to belly up to the indoor water park bar for a yard drink and a well liquor part of your rawr. Premium package. Chrissy, everybody had sad eyes at that bar. Everybody had sad eyes because they knew, just like I knew, that this is probably as good as it gets now that we have kids. We the next phase of our lives is shitting in a diaper. That's it. It's the Great Wolf large bar. And then it's shitting in a diaper. And so we better enjoy it now.

[Chris Oatley]

Got to. Yeah, yeah, get your liquor in because.

[Brian Green]

The bar at the senior citizens home is no fucking better. That's all I gotta say. I'm sad just thinking about it. It gives me a chill.

[Chris Oatley]

I can imagine.

[Brian Green]

Makes my balls go back up into my belly. So of course we gotta go. But by the way, here's the setup of the place. You look at the bar right ahead. You to the right is the towel stand and a row of lockers on a wall. Then there's the bathroom in the showers. Showers and all this other stuff. It takes a shower in there. I don't know. You could buy a day pass by the way. You don't have to stay there. You can buy a day pass. I think that's even the sadder thing you do, but whatever. Okay, Lounge chairs, picnic tables that you can eat on. A little restaurant to the left, a little splash park for the kids with a couple small water slides for the toddler, big splash park for the older kids. In the back to the left are three or four adult size water slides that go out of the building and then come back in and then adult size waters like water slides you and I would want to go on, right? You know, but you have to.

[Chris Oatley]

They're all after we're taking a few shots.

[Brian Green]

Oh my God. Or you have children. That's the only reason to be there. Even though I did see a couple of adults that look like maybe they were there on their own. I mean, I don't know. What possesses you? But I was 19 once, too, you know, Maybe I would have thought that was a good idea at 19 years old. Maybe. I don't know. Then there's a wave pool. And the wave pool. Ha. Above it, like, you know, the wave pool goes down into the ground, and then above it, there are a bunch of cabanas. Well, I. I can size up immediately that there are no available seats for seven, eight of us. That's not going to happen. And so I ask astronauts even. This is probably the worst thing I've ever asked Astrid in our entire marriage. Should I look into getting a cabana? And Astrid goes, no. We're already going to spend enough money here. Don't get a cabana. I'll find a couple seats. We're probably not going to be sitting there anyway. Let's play with the kids. And I said, all right, you know what? Fair dues, fair dues. Let's go. She finds a couple of seats. We put our towels down. By the way, people are so terrible. Human beings are so terrible that the reason why there's not a lot of available seating is because in the Great Wolf Lodge, there are no rules. Like, there are some places, like other pools in the United States or other theme parks that you can't just put a bunch of towels down to save it. To save it, you have to be sitting in the seat.

[Chris Oatley]

Somebody.

[Brian Green]

Somebody has to be sitting around, right? They can. And you can actually do this on the tables where you are eating, too. So what people were doing is just putting towels and bags down on the tables, and there was no one sitting there. But you'd feel like an asshole if you move their stuff, right?

[Chris Oatley]

No.

[Brian Green]

So Astrid finds a couple of towels near the kiddie. A couple of chairs near the kiddie pool, like the kiddie section. And she puts our towels down and our bag. Even though there are available seats, we just take two. That's it. We're gonna be nice human beings, and we're gonna take two. So we take those two seats, towels on one, bag on the other. Everybody gets disrobed. We all run off to go do different things. We get in the kiddie pool, and then I take the kids over to the wave pool. That wave pool has a filter around it. So at a little above the water line, it's got this, like. It's like a filter. It's a black mesh metal thing. Whereas the waves come. It takes all the shit out of the pool. Chrissy, I can't describe what that black metal mesh look like, because I don't want to make any of our listeners sick, but you can only imagine what was stuck in there. Hair ties with pieces of hair, shoes, fingernails, I'm sure pieces of puke. I'm not sure what was in there. But you didn't want to look. That's not what you did.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Once those waves started. Okay, so we walk into the water, all of us together, we walk into that wave pool. Water that we noticed when we took. When we got undressed and we were walking over to the wave pool, that the air was a little bit chilly. It had a little chill in it, right? But I thought to myself, that's okay. They're keeping the water at 85 degrees. That's pretty warm, right? It's not like, hot, but it's pretty warm. It's not like Jacuzzi hot, but it's pretty warm. When we walked into that wave pool, Chrissy, the water could not have been more than 78 degrees. And 78 degrees water is not warm. Your body is at 98 degrees. So when it's 20 degrees less than your body, you're gonna be chilly. Just like Christina is here in the studio right now.

[Chris Oatley]

She just put on her sweater.

[Brian Green]

That water was cold. It felt cold. And as soon as we got into it, one of my children started shivering. Now he has no meat on his bones anyway, but he's like. And he's like. You can see shaking. And I'm like, hey, little buddy. Like, are you okay? He's like, I'm fine. I'm fine. He doesn't want to go anywhere because he knows that. He knows I've taken him out of other pools because he shivered before. He doesn't want. So he's saying he's fine. So now I'm like. I grab him. I put him on my chest. I'm trying to create some body heat, you know? I'm like, it's okay. Run around. Go do some swimming, you know, get your.

[Chris Oatley]

Why is it so cold?

[Brian Green]

I believe this. This is what I think now that I had been there during the day and I had felt the water during the evening. Evening. I believe that the heaters go on full at night when it's cold, when they know it's going to be cold, when there's no sun to warm it up. But because there are so many glass windows in this place, I think they turn it down. They turn the heat in the water, the heaters down a little bit, hoping that the ambient air will keep the temperature warm. But I think they misjudged Yeah. I swear to God. I think they misjudged this water a little bit. I think they misjudged the, the, the weather a little bit because the water was cold. And once it's cold, it's really hard to heat all that water up at one time. So it was cold. It was not pleasant. It didn't feel good. So not only now were we kind of in this cesspool.

[Chris Oatley]

We're having a good time.

[Brian Green]

Oh my God, Chrissy. We were having a. The. The waves started coming, the kids were getting knocked all over the place. The water's freezing cold. Yes. Let me give you a. Let me give you the kind of like a summation of what was going on in the wave pool. There was a couple of parents that were there. The parents, I don't know, they. I don't know how to say this without being rude. They were larger people, right? And they had a kid and the kid was probably 10 years old. And the kid was tiny. He was tiny. He was like a little stick figure figure. The kid was standing there like kind of holding his mom because I think he was cold. He's like kind of against her belly and his pants were down around his knees, floating with the waves in the wave pool. And for five minutes, no one alerted the child that his little willy wing wang or his nasty ass was hanging out. Not even his mother, who could clearly probably see what was going on. As a matter of fact, she picked him up at one point and started swinging him around in the water so his asshole was dipping in the water. I told the kids, I said, we gotta get going.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah, we're out of here.

[Brian Green]

We gotta get going. We're out of here. I can't take this any. Let's go somewhere else. Let's go to another disease filled pond in here and let's go to. Which then we went to the Lazy River. And the Lazy river is right. That is a apt description of what was going on in there. There were, I mean, it just like, you know, older kids that were like fucking around the splash park that sits above the Lazy River. They have those water guns where they can point them at you and spray you. And all the little shitheads are spraying everybody cold, freezing water on you. And then the people running around the Lazy. I saw one guy at the Lazy river the first time I went in it to go to the other side of the water park. We took it over to the other side of the water park park. Then I saw him again in the same inner tube in the same position, probably 45 year old man. An hour later, he was still riding around the lazy river in Great Wolf Lodge. He had probably been drinking at the bar earlier. Decided, I better go take a nap before I get over it. We only spent two hours in this pool because by the, by the end of the second hour it was so incredibly. Everybody was so incredibly cold that it no longer became a pleasure to be in the pool. Now the kids wanted to stay, but their little bodies just weren't taking it. We rode some of the big water slides, which were fun, I will give it that. They were fun, they were exciting, they were good water slides. But here's the best part of it. When we, I, at one point I say to Astrid, or we say to each other, we better get these kids some food or they're going to get cranky. And Astrid goes with ale to go back and get some food and go back to the chairs. When she gets back to the chair chairs. Our bags are there, but all the towels are gone. Someone had taken the towels.

[Chris Oatley]

Taken the towels.

[Brian Green]

Taken the towels.

[Chris Oatley]

Wow. That was a bold move.

[Brian Green]

Not only did they take the towels, but then they decided to put their own bag on the place where the, on the chair where the towels were.

[Chris Oatley]

Oh.

[Brian Green]

So we, I could only. One could only make the assumption. The people who took the towels are the people who put the bag there. But after we saw a lady with a small child and a husband that just didn't look like the kind of people were around running around, taking towels, I made the. I, I made another assumption, which was terrible, that it was just some shithead, you know, kids or something that were running around taking people's towels. But I would have been you back in the day. I know, you're right. You're so right about this. It would have been me. It would have been me. I'm sorry. I took your towels. And now karma came back and took my towels. I'm sorry. But I did manage to negotiate a deal with the lady at the towels barn. The towel barn is what we're calling it.

[Chris Oatley]

I said, hey, because you were going to owe money.

[Brian Green]

$15 per towel. So I said to the lady, I said, listen, somebody took my towels. And she was, somebody took your towels? I said, somebody took my towels. And at first she said like, kind of like accusatory, like, somebody took your towels. But then she said, happens all the time. And I was like, then why'd you accuse me of pretending to take my own towels? Yeah, it was a test to see if I wanted to get more towels than I should take. And she didn't charge me for the towels. And so I felt like that was a bit of grace that I'll give the Great Wolf Lodge. Is that everybody there? Was everybody together? Yes. They were teenagers, they were young, but they had obviously been trained correctly to be nice to people. And I will give the Great Wolf Lodge that everybody I interacted with was pleasant. No one was a dick. No one was, you know, snide or snarky. You know, as teenagers, oftentimes, as young people, often times can be you're working in a place where everybody's being shitty and you so you're shitty back to them. That didn't happen. It was really quite nice, quite frankly. I think I'm gonna run over here. I think we're gonna need to tell the rest of this story because we're only two hours in and the best is yet to come. Wait till you hear what happened when we got dinner.

[Chris Oatley]

I bet that was an adventure.

[Brian Green]

Oh. Oh, Chrissy.

[Chris Oatley]

Every time you go on these fancy vacations, the dinner is always something you.

[Brian Green]

You think it's frustrating to go to the local pizza place and wait for your pizza. Go to the Great Wolf Lodge and wait for pizza with 700 other people are waiting for their pizza. And I'm gonna share with you just how shitty other human beings are when I tell that part of the story.

[Chris Oatley]

Can't wait.

[Brian Green]

Remind me when we get in studio to tell the rest of the story or I will forget.

[Chris Oatley]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

All right. Next week, Mr. Gustavo is going to show up here. He's going to do a segment with me here in the studio. Everyone's really excited about that, so don't miss it. We'll have a guest next Tuesday. Not sure who that will be, though, so we're still trying to figure it out. Also, we would love it if you would contact us. 212-4333, tcv 212 433-3822. Text us comments, questions, concerns, or content ideas. We'll take them all there. We'll also take a voicemail either way. But be mindful, if you leave a voicemail, I likely will play it on air because that's the kind of guy I am. I'm a human, too. I'm just as shitty as you are at the commercial break on Instagram, TCB podcast on Tick Tock. And you can go to the website tcbpodcast.com all the audio, all the video right there from one location.

[Chris Oatley]

Still engaged at this point.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, if you're still engaged at this point. People are throwing up in their mouths for my Great Wolf Lodge. I'm not the only one complaining about Great Wolf Lodge, by the way, just to be fair.

[Chris Oatley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

There seems to be a whole niche on Tick Tock dedicated to Great Wolf Lodge. Also, I'll remind you as we go into the new year that we would appreciate it if you use our sponsors specialized URLs and codes when they're on the show. You get free, we get paid. It's a win win situation for everybody. Tells our sponsors we're doing our job. It keeps a little jingle in our jingle. Thanks so much. We appreciate it. All right, Chrissy, that's all I can do for today.

[Chris Oatley]

I think so I'll tell you that.

[Brian Green]

I love you I love you Best you Best to you Best you out there Mr. Swimmy Swammy Wolf pants. Until next time we do say we will say we must say goodbye.

[Chris Oatley]
