The Case of the Hollywood Themed Lands: And the Rest.....shops

[00:00:15] What's up YouTube? Welcome to the Supreme Resort. I'm Chaz Coolguy and this is Land V World, a podcast about Disneyland and Walt Disney World and I already screwed up the introduction, which is the Supreme Resort. Yes. Hi, welcome. It's one of these shows. This is the Supreme Resort, Land V World, a podcast about Disneyland and Walt Disney World and which is the Supreme Resort. Each episode we will discuss and explore each resort's ride by ride, land by land,

[00:00:45] park by park, heart-stopping deal by the heart-stopping deal. That's bad copy to determine which is better Disneyland or Walt Disney World. I'm Dan and thank you for joining me on this quest to help the greater good of humanity answer that very long elusive question. Which one is better? Joining me as always from scraping the vault, Jimmy. Hi, thanks for having me. And Dan, you might say that these heart-stopping

[00:01:15] deals mixed with the artisanal, uh, imagineering. You might want to call it the art of the deal. Ooh. You know, that's my favorite book, oddly enough. Uh, and also from the, uh, smashing hit podcast, Boiesplaining, as well as like 15 other podcasts. It's Eric. Hello. Uh, I'm doing this as a favor to, uh, my

[00:01:44] fourth mistress. Uh, hey, uh, how you doing everybody. Uh, hopefully you listen to this. Um, I need the money for alimony.

[00:01:57] Alimony Tony. No, my name is Eric. Oh, listen to comedy. Bang, bang. That's true. Uh, it's one of our other podcasts where we all play different people. Um, Hey, did you know the Christmas season is upon us?

[00:02:12] That's right. Oh, wow. And what better, what better, uh, episode that can we possibly do than talking about shopping? Because that's what I love to do more than anything. And, uh, it's what people will be doing for this. As you know, it's August, the beginning of August, which means in the, in the parks, it's Christmas. Merry Christmas, everybody. Merry Christmas, everybody. If we're allowed to say that still.

[00:02:36] Oh, man.

[00:02:41] So, yeah, uh, what I'm referring to is the reopening of the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland, but it's not really the Haunted Mansion. It's a little, little Halloween costume called Haunted Mansion Holiday because we all love the dark and twisted imagination of Tim Burton. So very much.

[00:02:56] My fave.

[00:02:58] My fave.

[00:02:59] As we all know, it's Haunted Mansion Holiday still because when they closed the ride for refurbishment, it was Haunted Mansion Holiday. Why shut it down, redo, just shut it down, redo.

[00:03:09] Why bother?

[00:03:10] Why bother?

[00:03:11] Right. Just burn it down and build a Starbucks themed after Tim Burton.

[00:03:16] Um.

[00:03:16] From the twisted mind of Tim Burton.

[00:03:19] Starbucks.

[00:03:19] It's a Starbucks. He's going to bleed into your cup.

[00:03:22] Here's a, here's a macchiata that's inspired by German expressionism.

[00:03:28] Um, yeah.

[00:03:29] So I, I'm not sure you have both heard the rumors slash panic, whatever, that they might be removing the hanging guy, which may or may not be the ghost host.

[00:03:42] No, that's the best part.

[00:03:44] It's a dude who hanged.

[00:03:45] Whoa.

[00:03:46] Whoa.

[00:03:46] I, my real, my main take on this is I don't know how you can possibly have a haunted building and ghosts if you don't have explicit.

[00:03:59] Suicide?

[00:04:00] Grusome suicide.

[00:04:01] Dead people?

[00:04:02] Okay.

[00:04:03] Can't be haunted if somebody didn't commit suicide.

[00:04:05] Right.

[00:04:05] As we all know, these, these two are synonymous.

[00:04:08] That's right.

[00:04:08] I died by natural causes.

[00:04:12] Boo!

[00:04:12] Boo!

[00:04:13] Boo!

[00:04:15] Boo!

[00:04:15] Boo!

[00:04:17] Cancer!

[00:04:19] No, but what do you two think?

[00:04:20] Choked on a ham.

[00:04:24] Mama cats!

[00:04:27] Too soon, too soon.

[00:04:28] Sorry.

[00:04:29] Oh, sorry.

[00:04:30] What, what do you two think?

[00:04:31] First, what do you think is going to happen?

[00:04:34] And do you think people should care?

[00:04:38] Or at what, to what extent do you think people should care?

[00:04:42] Um, I don't think it adds to the story.

[00:04:45] I think it's unnecessary.

[00:04:46] If anything, it's confusing.

[00:04:48] Because to your point, who is that?

[00:04:50] Right.

[00:04:50] Is it somebody that was hung by the ghost host?

[00:04:52] Is it the ghost host?

[00:04:54] Is it, um, what's his name?

[00:04:57] The, Gracie?

[00:04:58] Who, who is it?

[00:04:59] Why is it?

[00:04:59] But personally, Dan, I don't see well.

[00:05:04] And in my hundreds and hundreds of times on this ride, I have never seen.

[00:05:09] Are you serious?

[00:05:10] I've never seen it.

[00:05:11] Wow.

[00:05:12] You've never looked up.

[00:05:13] I look up all the time.

[00:05:14] I just don't see well enough to see it.

[00:05:16] But you've like seen a picture.

[00:05:17] You know what it is.

[00:05:18] Of course, yeah.

[00:05:18] I know what it is.

[00:05:19] And I've seen, I've seen a vague outline.

[00:05:21] But, um, so my take is it's unnecessary.

[00:05:24] I think that I don't, you know, do we need to be culturally sensitive and not quote unquote

[00:05:30] glorify suicide?

[00:05:32] Sure.

[00:05:33] I don't think it matters either way.

[00:05:35] I don't think it's going to have a positive or negative impact on the everyday goer.

[00:05:42] Now, most of Disneylanders are not every, you know, they're not, you know, they go all the

[00:05:47] time, right?

[00:05:47] So they, they care more than most.

[00:05:49] Um, but I think the rumor I heard is there's going to be a little bit more projection mapping,

[00:05:54] a little bit more animation in there that'll be creepy, but it won't include suicide.

[00:06:01] So you're saying that the next step isn't those always my way.

[00:06:06] And then he slits his throat and there's like hot blood that pours on everybody in the room.

[00:06:11] And see, now that would be better.

[00:06:13] That's true.

[00:06:13] It was, it was too vague and it was too implied before I want explicit.

[00:06:18] It should be very clear.

[00:06:20] We should see a whole thing where he writes a note and he like cries a little bit and he

[00:06:24] like looks at himself in the mirror.

[00:06:26] He puts the shotgun in his mouth.

[00:06:28] Yeah.

[00:06:28] And then he's like, well, no.

[00:06:30] And in fact, it could be like a whole like Warner brothers cartoon segment of him, like

[00:06:35] going for like, he has, he has different options lined up and then he finally, you know,

[00:06:39] figures hanging.

[00:06:42] So Elmer Fudd walks up and goes, I'm Webby if you are.

[00:06:45] That would be great though, Dan, if like at the end of that, then it's like the, the,

[00:06:50] that's all folks, porky pig.

[00:06:55] And that's basically what the Jack Skellington animation is.

[00:06:58] Yes.

[00:06:59] I was about to say, it was very bad CG.

[00:07:01] Now, Dan, the, the, if I'm remembering correctly, let me go back to my aforementioned poor vision

[00:07:07] in the phantom manner at Disneyland Paris.

[00:07:10] I do believe the phantom is holding the rope.

[00:07:15] Yes.

[00:07:16] So that, that I could get behind, you know, suicide, let's not glorify, but murder, bring

[00:07:22] it on.

[00:07:25] Yeah.

[00:07:25] Yeah.

[00:07:25] We can all identify with murder.

[00:07:27] I, I feel like it's, to me, it's sort of like the, I keep using this example, the Native

[00:07:35] American wooden guy on main street.

[00:07:37] It's like, if I were to go, if I were to go right on a mansion for the very first time

[00:07:41] and it didn't have that and it had some other effect that was done well, I wouldn't be like,

[00:07:47] Hey, where's the guy hanging himself?

[00:07:49] Right.

[00:07:50] This is not, this isn't haunted.

[00:07:53] Oh my God.

[00:07:54] And the cigar store guy just walks up and goes, bang.

[00:07:57] We just talked about murder.

[00:08:00] Deadpool is now a hot property.

[00:08:02] I say Deadpool shoots the guy in the rye.

[00:08:07] Perfect product placement, IP, murder.

[00:08:11] You just introduced something in my imagination about how, what if instead of doing the stupid,

[00:08:18] I mean, very well done.

[00:08:20] Not another what if show.

[00:08:21] Very.

[00:08:22] Oh my goodness.

[00:08:24] What if haunted mansion would have had a different overlay every year and you could have Deadpool.

[00:08:30] Ooh, I like that.

[00:08:32] What are some other overlays?

[00:08:33] Deadpool?

[00:08:34] Hellraiser.

[00:08:36] Hellraiser.

[00:08:36] Do they own that now?

[00:08:37] No, but I mean, wait, they might.

[00:08:39] They might.

[00:08:40] They probably do for like dimension films or something.

[00:08:42] Yeah.

[00:08:42] You could do X-Men, obviously.

[00:08:46] What else is scary?

[00:08:48] Oh yeah.

[00:08:48] Turn it into, I mean.

[00:08:51] Xavier's mansion?

[00:08:52] Yeah.

[00:08:53] I mean, these aren't, these aren't, I'm not saying, please let's do this.

[00:08:56] I'm mainly saying for the love of God, let's stop with the haunted mansion.

[00:09:00] What else is scary?

[00:09:01] The shaggy dog?

[00:09:01] I'll take literally anything else.

[00:09:03] Oh, the haunted shaggy dog.

[00:09:05] Ooh, old yeller.

[00:09:06] Old yeller.

[00:09:09] It's just disgusting.

[00:09:09] It's the elevator.

[00:09:11] The dad shoots the dog at the beginning.

[00:09:12] It's the dog who dies.

[00:09:14] There's always my way.

[00:09:17] Bang.

[00:09:25] Anyway, Dan, that's my take on it.

[00:09:28] I believe they probably will get rid of it.

[00:09:30] Some cool creepy effect would be desired.

[00:09:35] Yeah.

[00:09:35] And I mean, I, as long as it's well done, I'm happy.

[00:09:40] I, will I miss it just because of like, I'm used to it?

[00:09:43] Yeah, probably.

[00:09:44] But like, I get it.

[00:09:46] Like, I mean, I don't necessarily think that we need to be overly super hypersensitive about

[00:09:54] every little thing, but this is one that we could be a little, you know, it doesn't

[00:10:00] need it.

[00:10:01] Yeah.

[00:10:02] It's, it's not suicide mansion.

[00:10:04] Yeah.

[00:10:05] It's not, it's not necessary either way.

[00:10:07] Is it necessary to be there?

[00:10:08] No.

[00:10:09] Is it necessary to take it?

[00:10:10] No.

[00:10:10] I just don't know if it matters.

[00:10:11] Right.

[00:10:12] By the way, I'm sorry.

[00:10:15] I was going to change the subject, but I will not until we're all done with this.

[00:10:19] You may change the subject now.

[00:10:20] Thank you.

[00:10:22] Deadpool is a rated R film.

[00:10:24] Great, great movie.

[00:10:25] Fun, fun.

[00:10:25] That's why I haven't seen it.

[00:10:27] Because it's like fun or movies.

[00:10:29] Please.

[00:10:32] So, you know, I, so Chris Provost, Provost Park Pass, ladies and gentlemen, YouTube channel,

[00:10:38] Provost Park Pass.

[00:10:39] Friend of the show.

[00:10:40] We're, we're dating again.

[00:10:42] Oh, you're, you're on again.

[00:10:44] Good.

[00:10:44] We're on again a little bit.

[00:10:45] We're just, we're, we're trying it out.

[00:10:47] See how it goes.

[00:10:48] I have something to add to that after you're done saying what you're about to say.

[00:10:51] Who's holding hands with him?

[00:10:53] Um, uh, his daughter.

[00:10:56] Anyway, so he brought something up that I thought about when I finished watching Deadpool and Wolverine,

[00:11:03] the third part of the trilogy.

[00:11:04] And at the end of the credits, there's an end credit scene, no spoilers.

[00:11:09] And it says the very last title thing is a Walt Disney Studios production.

[00:11:15] Yeah.

[00:11:15] And I'm like, Walt Disney would be spinning in his grave.

[00:11:19] It's just like how he would never, he would never put, I mean, he's on tape.

[00:11:28] There's, there's countless audio of him.

[00:11:30] That's just, this is not Disney.

[00:11:33] Um, I don't care.

[00:11:34] I mean, yeah, everybody knows it's Disney, but just the fact that it says Walt Disney Studios,

[00:11:38] there's just something about it.

[00:11:40] Doesn't feel right from a Walt Disney perspective.

[00:11:42] That being said, having Deadpool then in the parks.

[00:11:47] Yeah.

[00:11:48] Oh yeah.

[00:11:49] Is, I gotta say, I was like, there's just, how, how do they do that?

[00:11:53] And they did it and they did a phenomenal job with it.

[00:11:56] Right.

[00:11:57] There's double entendre.

[00:11:58] There's innuendo, but it's just enough that is fun for the adults without really impacting.

[00:12:04] Kids probably don't get it.

[00:12:06] There's a going down joke.

[00:12:08] There's all kinds of different things that it's just, it's innocuous enough,

[00:12:12] but on-brand Deadpool enough that I'm really impressed at how quickly they did it and how

[00:12:17] well they did it.

[00:12:18] Anyway, thoughts, Dan?

[00:12:19] I really like what they've done there.

[00:12:21] I think maybe the, the key to unlocking the potential was for them to address, for them

[00:12:27] to have Deadpool address.

[00:12:28] Like, yeah, I can't say the things that I want to say, which is perfect.

[00:12:33] It's like, oh yeah, I'll get in trouble.

[00:12:35] Like he's, it's almost as though like the, the actor playing Deadpool is acknowledging

[00:12:40] that he is an actor playing Deadpool, which is the way to go.

[00:12:43] Really?

[00:12:43] I think what would be even more interesting and more fun is if they had that character

[00:12:51] not confined to Avengers campus and just like going around, like riding rides, just

[00:12:57] like, cause that's what would happen.

[00:12:58] Storybook, on-brand.

[00:13:01] It would be on-character brand and at Disneyland too.

[00:13:04] Right.

[00:13:05] How is it different from Rocket Raccoon saying, when do we get to Disneyland?

[00:13:09] Yeah.

[00:13:09] Yeah.

[00:13:09] I think that just embrace the meta-ness of it.

[00:13:13] Maybe don't have him in Disneyland park, maybe downtown Disney, but I think like, I think

[00:13:20] just within California Adventure is enough, you know, to have him just be like, just being

[00:13:25] Deadpool and being very meta, very self-aware.

[00:13:29] He could do 10 minutes on award wieners.

[00:13:31] Totally.

[00:13:32] And I think, as we have.

[00:13:33] And I think that.

[00:13:36] Yeah, the Deadpool of Disney podcasts.

[00:13:38] And like, I want to see, or at the very least, I want to see him like with just ridiculous

[00:13:43] merch hanging from him.

[00:13:44] Like he's just spending the day there.

[00:13:47] Yeah.

[00:13:48] A lot of bags.

[00:13:49] Yeah.

[00:13:50] T-shirt.

[00:13:50] Like I survived.

[00:13:51] Guardians of the Galaxy.

[00:13:53] All of it.

[00:13:53] I'd love to have him just placing free Mickey ears with the wrong name placed on children's

[00:14:00] heads.

[00:14:00] What's your name?

[00:14:01] Is it Francis?

[00:14:02] Here you go.

[00:14:03] Yeah.

[00:14:04] Just like let the character really go nuts.

[00:14:07] You know?

[00:14:07] Yeah.

[00:14:07] I agree.

[00:14:08] Great idea.

[00:14:10] I'm sure imaginary.

[00:14:11] Right.

[00:14:12] So did you notice on Provost that he also spoke to our, our pal, Dave, David at the Red

[00:14:20] Rose Tavern?

[00:14:20] You mean he didn't just stand there looking at him and not speak?

[00:14:25] Friend of the show, David.

[00:14:26] He did a, he did a, he did a, a rundown of all of the details in Red Rose Tavern.

[00:14:33] And the whole time I'm just like, I think you talked to David because it's all, it's all

[00:14:38] the same stuff.

[00:14:39] I mean, he went a little bit more in depth, which is good, but.

[00:14:42] I didn't.

[00:14:43] Again, we're just, we're every, you know, we're not steady.

[00:14:47] Right.

[00:14:47] We're just, we're, we're, I'm playing the field with him.

[00:14:51] We, the family just got back from Yellowstone this summer.

[00:14:54] We talked about it and his family went to Yellowstone and this is going to just.

[00:14:59] The families didn't hook up.

[00:15:00] No, we were, we were months apart, but he was doing this, you know, Provost Park passes

[00:15:06] like hidden secrets, details, things you may have missed, like, you know, and he's trying

[00:15:10] to get content and I really don't want to be disparaging about the guy, but when you

[00:15:15] are filming your family trip to Yellowstone and then you read a little sign of the guy,

[00:15:21] you're doing this, you're doing this, you're doing this, you're doing this, you're doing

[00:15:21] on the walkway and then you get on camera and tell everybody about this great, amazing

[00:15:25] fact.

[00:15:26] It's like, okay, dude, you don't have to film everything.

[00:15:30] It's fine.

[00:15:31] Yeah.

[00:15:31] Yeah.

[00:15:32] I think when he's good, he's really good.

[00:15:35] Like, yeah.

[00:15:35] And I'm jealous by the way.

[00:15:36] This is a hundred percent of some jealousy.

[00:15:38] Right.

[00:15:38] And I feel like there's probably, there's some amount of personality overlap a little

[00:15:43] bit there.

[00:15:44] Like, I feel like you could take on that persona if you chose to, you know, um, the look on

[00:15:50] your face is a little bit disgusted.

[00:15:53] Also knowing and acknowledging.

[00:15:54] Right, right.

[00:15:55] Um, yeah, I think that I could see.

[00:16:01] Not a good time.

[00:16:03] Not a good time.

[00:16:07] No, but I think that, that, yeah, I think that he's, he's an interesting dude.

[00:16:11] I, I have come around to liking his, his content, but then every once in a while he does a subject

[00:16:18] or he does it in a way where I'm just like, okay, no, thank you.

[00:16:22] Yeah.

[00:16:23] Okay.

[00:16:24] Yeah.

[00:16:24] That's kind of where I'm at.

[00:16:25] Yeah.

[00:16:26] All right.

[00:16:26] Taking another step back.

[00:16:28] Uh, sorry, this is your show, Dan.

[00:16:29] Um, when I said Walt Disney would be spinning in his grave, if with this film, Deadpool Wolverine,

[00:16:38] you guys both seem to disagree with me.

[00:16:40] I think that Walt Disney, we're kind of in this weird place, understandably where he's

[00:16:47] stuck in a, in time.

[00:16:49] And it's almost like we're infantilizing this poor old man.

[00:16:53] Um, I think that, I think that over time, maybe his, his tendency was always to like,

[00:17:01] rather than push on things, on things like embrace it.

[00:17:05] And I think that he would have, I think honestly, he would have seen the creative potential of a

[00:17:10] character like Deadpool.

[00:17:12] Um, you know, I think you're right.

[00:17:14] Uh, I think, I think at the tier point, he was, he was a futurist, right?

[00:17:18] And he would evolve.

[00:17:19] He would say, you know what?

[00:17:20] We don't need rapey pirates.

[00:17:22] We don't need that.

[00:17:23] Right.

[00:17:23] You're right.

[00:17:24] He would.

[00:17:24] And so in this instance, I am definitely taking the Walt Disney 1964 and saying, if you were,

[00:17:31] you know, unfrozen and go, wait, wait, my name is on this, you know, but I think you're

[00:17:36] right.

[00:17:36] You know, maybe it's a little bit extreme.

[00:17:39] Yeah.

[00:17:40] Looking at properties that are popular and then saying, oh wait, this, uh, this really

[00:17:45] rude guy.

[00:17:46] That's what people like.

[00:17:48] Like, well, we can, we can chunk off a portion of the company and have, uh, rude things that

[00:17:53] people like.

[00:17:54] Yeah.

[00:17:55] I mean, half the country loves a rude orange guy.

[00:17:57] Hmm.

[00:17:58] Yeah.

[00:17:59] Yeah.

[00:17:59] You know what?

[00:18:00] I, I do love, uh, the orange bird, even though, um, even though I was thinking, but

[00:18:08] Oh gosh, no.

[00:18:10] Oh goodness.

[00:18:11] No.

[00:18:11] He's much too beef for me.

[00:18:14] Yeah.

[00:18:14] Um, I always, I don't know.

[00:18:18] Am I going to, okay.

[00:18:19] Hey, past show corrections.

[00:18:20] Okay.

[00:18:20] Good.

[00:18:20] Good.

[00:18:21] Um, here we go.

[00:18:22] Uh, I think Eric knew where I was going to go with that one.

[00:18:26] Uh, past show corrections.

[00:18:28] What I was going to say is that I sometimes when I consider Hulk Hogan, I can't help but

[00:18:36] wonder how tan certain parts of him are.

[00:18:42] Yeah.

[00:18:44] Real past show corrections.

[00:18:46] My wife pointed out a few episodes ago when we were talking about our tours.

[00:18:51] Yes.

[00:18:52] And we talked about how, well, it's kind of weird that they gave us orange juice and a

[00:18:57] cinnamon roll before going on this tour.

[00:18:59] She said, well, Walt loved going to the orange juice.

[00:19:04] Right.

[00:19:05] The sun kissed house.

[00:19:07] Oh, he, oh, he's got framed.

[00:19:10] Look at that.

[00:19:11] Uh, but yeah, my wife mentioned Walt loved his orange juice and I went, you know what?

[00:19:17] You're right.

[00:19:18] Did he also talk about how much he loved going to the sun kissed, uh, cinnamon roll house?

[00:19:24] And she said, that's not a thing.

[00:19:26] And I said, okay, there we go.

[00:19:27] We're halfway.

[00:19:28] We're halfway there.

[00:19:29] I thought she was going to remind you that Walt Disney loved giving blood and that orange

[00:19:36] juice is a great way to get that blood sugar back up.

[00:19:38] Yeah.

[00:19:40] Uh, yeah.

[00:19:41] Okay.

[00:19:42] But yeah, going back to the Walt Disney coming around thing, I think that he would have definitely

[00:19:45] at some point been like, yeah, you know what?

[00:19:47] This is, let's blur the lines.

[00:19:50] Let's, let's actually find some creative use in blurring these lines a little bit.

[00:19:55] We don't need to like, you know, we don't need to have swears in every like cartoon or

[00:20:01] we don't need to like, you know, Daisy shore boobs or anything like that.

[00:20:05] I mean, famously he reduced a lot of the nudity in the shaggy dog.

[00:20:10] Yeah.

[00:20:10] Right.

[00:20:10] He put pants on the dog.

[00:20:15] He's like, there are teenagers in this movie.

[00:20:17] They should not be this nude.

[00:20:19] Well, I think Dan, I think also maybe to your point evolution, there's alcohol now.

[00:20:23] You can buy it at star Wars land.

[00:20:25] You can buy beer and wine at a few restaurants and sit down and that kind of thing.

[00:20:28] You're, you're probably right.

[00:20:30] Yeah.

[00:20:31] Let's just say I am.

[00:20:32] Okay.

[00:20:33] You're right.

[00:20:36] Dan's very right.

[00:20:37] Yes.

[00:20:38] As always.

[00:20:39] Famously with the one, one piece of feedback that I have gotten back from meeting some,

[00:20:45] a few listeners through the concierge is that they always agree with me.

[00:20:49] So, uh, yeah.

[00:20:56] All right.

[00:20:56] So are we, are we doing this?

[00:20:58] Are we going to do this?

[00:20:59] Let's do it.

[00:20:59] Hey, let's do a show.

[00:21:00] Let's do a show.

[00:21:02] Welcome to Supreme resort.

[00:21:03] I'm Chaz.

[00:21:04] Cool guy.

[00:21:04] This is YouTube.

[00:21:05] Hit the like and subscribe button.

[00:21:07] Comment down below.

[00:21:08] Hey YouTube.

[00:21:09] What do you think of the hanging guy in the, in the haunted mansion?

[00:21:12] If you think they should.

[00:21:14] That's not what we're doing this show.

[00:21:16] Okay.

[00:21:16] Uh, we are doing shopping.

[00:21:19] So yeah.

[00:21:21] Bye everybody.

[00:21:25] Till next time.

[00:21:27] Right.

[00:21:28] So we are in our quest to kind of tie up the Hollywood lands is in DCA and, uh, Disney MGM studios.

[00:21:41] That's what it's called.

[00:21:42] Uh, we are, we talked about the, and the restaurants last time.

[00:21:49] Yeah.

[00:21:50] And we very hesitantly decided that we need to talk about and the rest shoppings.

[00:21:58] Yeah.

[00:21:59] And the shops to rot.

[00:22:02] The shops.

[00:22:02] Yes.

[00:22:03] It was funnier when we came up, came up with it.

[00:22:05] So I have some notes, uh, from the chat that I kind of just barely looked at because, oh, by the way, listener, um, I'm sorry.

[00:22:17] Um, the, uh, uh, scraping the vault is, is, yeah, I'm sorry.

[00:22:25] That's all.

[00:22:26] Okay.

[00:22:26] Here we go.

[00:22:26] Listen to ears up.

[00:22:28] What's that?

[00:22:29] Listen to ears up.

[00:22:30] Listen to ears up.

[00:22:31] Yeah.

[00:22:32] Um, Dan's going through it.

[00:22:33] And so, you know, scraping the vault is, uh, the schedule's off a little bit and it's my fault and I apologize, but we'll get back to it anyway.

[00:22:40] We'll scrape.

[00:22:41] We'll scrape by.

[00:22:42] We'll scrape by.

[00:22:43] Uh, so we have the shop name as it currently exists.

[00:22:46] Um, from the entrance side to back of the land.

[00:22:52] As in, we'll go in order.

[00:22:55] The first shop you come to from when you come into the entrance until you go to the back of the land.

[00:22:59] Got it.

[00:23:00] Got it.

[00:23:01] Got it.

[00:23:01] Got it.

[00:23:01] Uh, history or inspiration of the shop slash building.

[00:23:04] That's something we have covered before, but it's been a while.

[00:23:08] So we can review that.

[00:23:09] Of course.

[00:23:10] Of course.

[00:23:11] This copy on what the shop offers, which we all love very much.

[00:23:15] We all enjoy the imaginary copy favorite item sold in the store or something unique.

[00:23:21] They're in kind of self-explanatory.

[00:23:24] And, um, that's, that's it.

[00:23:28] Uh, and because the Disney's Hollywood studios, Jim GM came first, um, Eric's going to be going first on that.

[00:23:39] And if he says, Nope.

[00:23:42] Jimmy.

[00:23:42] No, no.

[00:23:43] Oh, uh, because Dan said maybe it was a challenge if I didn't do something.

[00:23:48] Well, that's right.

[00:23:50] That's right.

[00:23:51] Yeah.

[00:23:51] Jimmy's going to do it.

[00:23:52] That's right.

[00:23:53] And I'm going to sit here and go, all right.

[00:23:55] I had to learn about something I'm not familiar with.

[00:23:57] All right.

[00:23:58] All right.

[00:23:58] So Jimmy's going to cover Disney world.

[00:24:01] That's right.

[00:24:01] And when he says something that I find delightful and that, how about this?

[00:24:07] When I would like to purchase something that he has said.

[00:24:10] Great idea.

[00:24:11] Yeah.

[00:24:11] Uh, you're, you're all going to hear this sound.

[00:24:14] I love that idea.

[00:24:16] I love that idea too, Steven.

[00:24:18] What's that?

[00:24:19] What's that?

[00:24:19] Steven Tyler in the rock and roller coaster starring Aerosmith.

[00:24:24] Uh, they're all on their super stretch limo.

[00:24:27] And, uh, one of them says, Hey, we should take our fans with us.

[00:24:30] And he's like, I love that idea.

[00:24:34] Oh, then he said, Dan, uh, Jimmy, a text message.

[00:24:38] That's right.

[00:24:39] And if Eric says something that I would like to purchase from one of the shops on, uh, uh, Hollywood Boulevard at DCA, you will hear this sound.

[00:24:56] Thank you.

[00:24:57] I mean, I feel like that's self-explanatory.

[00:25:01] Is there anything else to it?

[00:25:02] Show business.

[00:25:03] Everybody got a business at all.

[00:25:06] All right.

[00:25:06] Well, let's get down to business.

[00:25:10] And if you want to subscribe to the podcast, like, and subscribe down below.

[00:25:15] Sorry.

[00:25:16] Go ahead.

[00:25:16] So Dan, I think, uh, there are Eric, correct me if I'm wrong.

[00:25:19] There are six shops at Hollywood, Hollywood studio, sunset Boulevard.

[00:25:23] And I believe three at DCA.

[00:25:26] Yeah.

[00:25:29] Condensed.

[00:25:30] What we can do is just kind of go back and forth.

[00:25:32] I'll start.

[00:25:33] And then when he runs out, skim through a couple.

[00:25:37] All right, Dan.

[00:25:37] Dan, if it please the court.

[00:25:39] It does.

[00:25:40] I present the first shop that you come to on the left side of sunset Boulevard.

[00:25:46] It is not the villains layer or villain anonymous, whatever it's called.

[00:25:51] It is called Beverly sunset boutique.

[00:25:54] Why is it called Beverly sunset boutique?

[00:25:56] You ask?

[00:25:56] Well, it's because the Beverly sunset boutique in part is themed after the Beverly sunset

[00:26:03] theater.

[00:26:04] Wow.

[00:26:05] Oh, Beverly sunset boutique is, uh, it's one store, but it has three facades.

[00:26:10] This is not unlike the Ichabod cranes shop.

[00:26:14] The yield Christmas shop has three facades at a magic kingdom.

[00:26:17] Uh, the left facade is the Beverly sunset theater.

[00:26:21] Beverly sunset theater is based on a real movie theater that was, it was demolished 1988.

[00:26:25] Sorry.

[00:26:26] The Warner Beverly Hills theater at 1940.

[00:26:31] Oh, nine, nine four Oh four.

[00:26:32] Worcester Boulevard and Beverly Hills is what it's kind of close to.

[00:26:36] Uh, the center facade.

[00:26:38] Um, there it is.

[00:26:39] Okay.

[00:26:39] I see it now.

[00:26:41] Yeah.

[00:26:41] The center facade has the shop sign.

[00:26:44] It's inspired by the Pasadena, Pasadena winter garden.

[00:26:48] It's on a Royal parkway in Pasadena.

[00:26:50] Uh, today the Pasadena building is sad looking public storage facility.

[00:26:56] So it's kind of appropriate.

[00:26:58] This is a shop.

[00:26:59] Mm hmm.

[00:26:59] Yay.

[00:26:59] When it opened in 1940, it was the Pasadena winter garden, a spectacular streamlined modern

[00:27:05] style ice skating rink.

[00:27:07] Ooh.

[00:27:08] Yeah.

[00:27:09] It was designed by Pasadena architect, uh, Cyril Bennett or Bennett, excuse me.

[00:27:15] Uh, Olympic champion Peggy Fleming developed her skills at this very garden.

[00:27:21] We heard about pegging before.

[00:27:22] Yes.

[00:27:22] Yes, exactly.

[00:27:23] At the end of 1966, the ice rink closed.

[00:27:26] It's very sad.

[00:27:27] The building took on a new role as the U S postal service.

[00:27:32] It was the U S postal service sorting facility.

[00:27:35] And, uh, so there's a story that the, the ground deep below the building was permanently

[00:27:40] frozen after more than a quarter century under the freezing coils of the ice surface.

[00:27:45] This meant that the postal employees had to work a freezing cold floor.

[00:27:50] Eventually the postal service moved out after sitting vacant for a decade.

[00:27:53] It became a storage facility.

[00:27:56] Huh?

[00:27:57] That is the center building of the Beverly sunset boutique.

[00:28:01] It's facade.

[00:28:02] Now the right facade doesn't have a sign except for the second story window.

[00:28:06] I got a question for you.

[00:28:07] Yes, sir.

[00:28:08] When did it become a storage facility?

[00:28:10] Uh, I think it was 1988.

[00:28:14] So it's possible that when they turn this into a store, it was already a storage facility.

[00:28:20] It's very possible because the park opened in 89.

[00:28:24] So.

[00:28:24] Okay.

[00:28:25] Okay.

[00:28:26] Anyway.

[00:28:27] Um, excuse me.

[00:28:29] The right facade, uh, is based on the, um, it's, it's a Pasadena.

[00:28:34] It's number 12 East Colorado Boulevard.

[00:28:36] It's a place called the 35er.

[00:28:39] The 35er is a bar in Pasadena's old town neighborhood.

[00:28:43] Uh, in business since 1962, the family owned and operated 35er enjoys the title of the oldest

[00:28:51] cocktail lounge in Pasadena.

[00:28:53] Uh, the, the designated historic properties list of city of Pasadena includes the 35er,

[00:29:00] but only identifies the year as it was built circa 1950 and does not identify the architect.

[00:29:06] But those are the three facades that make up the store Beverly sunset boutique from Disney

[00:29:14] shop from a show stopping selection of Pixar merchandise and pre-packaged tasty treats inside

[00:29:20] this whimsical theater in air quotes.

[00:29:25] Yeah.

[00:29:26] Uh, my favorite item in the store and the problem with shops, Dan, uh, first of all, we've never

[00:29:31] done this before.

[00:29:32] We've never done shops before.

[00:29:35] Problem is the merchandise changes all the time.

[00:29:39] Um, but my favorite thing, it's a Pixar themed store is there's t-shirt that's Bruce the shark

[00:29:46] from finding Nemo and his mouth's open and it says hangry.

[00:29:51] Ah, I can relate to that.

[00:29:55] Exactly.

[00:29:55] Do they sell merchandise that talks about how I'm an impossible monster if I don't have my

[00:30:00] coffee immediately after I wake up?

[00:30:03] Inevitably.

[00:30:03] Cause those are my favorites.

[00:30:05] Yes.

[00:30:06] Um, or does it have a little thing about how sassy I am and has a little Tinkerbell

[00:30:10] wagging her ass at the camera?

[00:30:12] Nope.

[00:30:12] Because it's not Pixar.

[00:30:13] Okay.

[00:30:14] Okay.

[00:30:14] So let's real questions.

[00:30:16] It's all Pixar in there.

[00:30:18] It's a Pixar shop.

[00:30:20] Um, that's, and they do have some tasty treats, you know, they have like a pre-packaged stuff

[00:30:25] and caramel apples and that sort of thing.

[00:30:28] Okay.

[00:30:28] Okay.

[00:30:29] Uh, and that I'm looking at the Google maps street view.

[00:30:34] So those, those two buildings together are that store.

[00:30:39] Is that correct?

[00:30:40] Uh, technically three facades, but yeah.

[00:30:43] Yeah.

[00:30:43] Okay.

[00:30:43] Got it.

[00:30:44] Okay.

[00:30:44] And then once you get out of the store and you continue towards tower of terror, there's

[00:30:48] a vacation club thing.

[00:30:51] And then you get into the produce shop and pin the store and all that.

[00:30:54] Right.

[00:30:54] Okay.

[00:30:56] Um, all Pixar.

[00:30:57] Okay.

[00:30:58] So some thoughts, it's all Pixar and that's weird because they have a toy story.

[00:31:01] Oh, please don't ask follow-up questions.

[00:31:04] Oh no, I'm just, I'm just sharing thoughts.

[00:31:06] Um, I, I find it potentially whimsical that they have a store where it's now storage.

[00:31:16] So I'm going to have a, like a holding point for that just in case I need it.

[00:31:21] Okay.

[00:31:23] Um, I think that's it for that.

[00:31:25] And for the, for the sake of continuity.

[00:31:27] Yeah.

[00:31:27] With the episode based on my six versus three, I'm going to do the sister shop before we

[00:31:33] go to Eric.

[00:31:34] Eric is that real Vogue or legends of Hollywood.

[00:31:37] It's legends of Hollywood.

[00:31:39] Oh, okay.

[00:31:40] Go for it.

[00:31:41] Okay.

[00:31:41] So legends of Hollywood looks like a movie theater.

[00:31:45] Sure does.

[00:31:45] But it's actually a shop.

[00:31:48] What?

[00:31:49] Yeah.

[00:31:50] It's another theater as a shop, just like the Beverly sunset theater across the street,

[00:31:56] which we just talked about.

[00:31:57] Okay.

[00:31:58] Uh, together the two theaters form a fitting movie town entrance to Disney's sunset Boulevard

[00:32:04] in California, the former Academy theater.

[00:32:07] This is a fun fact.

[00:32:08] The former Academy theater is now the Academy cathedral, but unlike legends of Hollywood,

[00:32:13] there's no distinctive spiral fin on the 125 foot tower sign.

[00:32:18] Uh, again, legend of Hollywood is based on the Academy theater, which is now the Academy

[00:32:23] cathedral.

[00:32:24] However, if you look at historic photos of the Academy theater, it once did.

[00:32:28] In fact, have a spiral fin as well.

[00:32:30] This terrific, streamlined, modern style cinema by famed theater architect S. Charles Lee.

[00:32:38] Hold for applause.

[00:32:46] Your attention, please.

[00:33:01] Showed movies from 1933 to 1975 when it became a church.

[00:33:06] It was a church money spending capitalism.

[00:33:11] It was named Academy theater.

[00:33:13] Sorry.

[00:33:14] All my favorite things.

[00:33:15] That's right.

[00:33:15] It was named the Academy theater because it was supposed to become the home of the annual

[00:33:21] Academy awards.

[00:33:23] That's why it was called the Academy theater, but it never happened.

[00:33:26] So anyway, from Disney find fabulous trends, Pandora jewelry, Disney themed fashion, and

[00:33:33] more at this re-imagined boutique style store.

[00:33:37] Uh, favorite item.

[00:33:39] Um, the Mickey Mouse.

[00:33:42] Um, the Mickey Mouse citizen watch in the Pandora jewelry section.

[00:33:47] Is, is it just a gift shop for the planet Hollywood?

[00:33:51] Not anymore.

[00:33:53] Not anymore.

[00:33:53] But it was, it was Hollywood is gone.

[00:33:56] Yeah.

[00:33:57] It even said planet Hollywood out front, but that's the trouble with shops.

[00:34:00] They change all the time.

[00:34:01] But, um, right now legends of Hollywood.

[00:34:04] Those are the two theaters.

[00:34:05] The end.

[00:34:07] Well, there's more theaters, but that, that's the entrance.

[00:34:09] I, I got it to say, I don't love this theme of it's a theater, but no, it's a shop.

[00:34:15] It doesn't make sense.

[00:34:17] Oh no.

[00:34:18] It's, it's, it's, it's dumb and I don't like it and it's lazy.

[00:34:25] Um, what about the, Oh, is that a trend?

[00:34:29] There's more laziness to come.

[00:34:31] Oh, okay.

[00:34:32] Thank God.

[00:34:33] Um, okay.

[00:34:37] I, I kind of know where I'm leaning on this part.

[00:34:40] Eric, what do you got?

[00:34:42] Do you want me to start with something that's completely historical and non-existent?

[00:34:48] Or do you want me to start with things that are currently there?

[00:34:52] I don't know.

[00:34:53] Follow my lead.

[00:34:54] Yeah.

[00:34:54] Follow his lead.

[00:34:55] I mean, Jimmy doesn't have anything that's completely gone unless you count like planet.

[00:35:02] I really didn't.

[00:35:04] I didn't go through all the different iterations and stuff because mostly I don't care.

[00:35:07] Yeah.

[00:35:08] But you do you, Eric.

[00:35:09] Okay.

[00:35:09] Well, there is a significant place that no longer exists that maybe I'll hold off for later.

[00:35:15] Sorry.

[00:35:15] Before, before you go for, I'm totally open to you going down that road.

[00:35:19] I just want to remind you my, my judging style is generally like if it doesn't exist anymore,

[00:35:25] then I don't care.

[00:35:26] Yeah.

[00:35:27] Well, I don't care for your judging style.

[00:35:30] I don't want to tell people what used to be there.

[00:35:32] No, no, no.

[00:35:33] I mean, share the thoughts.

[00:35:35] Yeah.

[00:35:36] The thoughts are interesting.

[00:35:37] But in terms of rewarding, of awarding a point, I see no reason to award points for stuff that

[00:35:43] doesn't exist anymore.

[00:35:45] Okay.

[00:35:45] But in terms of like sharing facts or whatever, that's fantastic.

[00:35:48] Let's start out with a thing that exists now and has a long history at the parks.

[00:35:56] Starting from DCA's opening day, it's Rizzo's prop and pawn shop.

[00:36:02] Hmm.

[00:36:04] Yeah.

[00:36:05] The sign above this little hut read prop shop movie props made, repaired, painted.

[00:36:11] Uh, Rizzo the rat, the storied Muppet, uh, added to the sign with his own name changed

[00:36:18] to prop and pawn shop.

[00:36:21] So he's selling stuff out of this, uh, this thing other than just props.

[00:36:25] I'm pulling up the map for this one too.

[00:36:27] Where was that?

[00:36:28] This is in the Hollywood land area behind the main street.

[00:36:36] By where Muppet vision should still be.

[00:36:40] Yes.

[00:36:41] Yeah.

[00:36:41] It's in that it's, it's this shop that still exists.

[00:36:44] That's in this area between everything.

[00:36:47] Um, yeah.

[00:36:48] If you're rocking out at the mad tea party, you can turn around and see this shop there.

[00:36:54] Is it this studio store now?

[00:36:56] It is now the studio store.

[00:36:58] So we'll get there.

[00:36:59] All right.

[00:36:59] Keep going.

[00:37:00] I just, I just want to be able to look at it while you're talking.

[00:37:03] All right.

[00:37:04] Yeah.

[00:37:04] In its early days, it was a messy looking shop with multiple sides offering Muppet merch

[00:37:09] like plushes amidst empty boxes with labels like round screwy things and long turny things.

[00:37:17] So the Muppets put their little stamp on stuff saying, Hey, here's the weird stuff that we

[00:37:22] have for sale, even though they weren't really for sale.

[00:37:27] Uh, it opened in February, uh, 2001.

[00:37:32] I don't want to say it that way.

[00:37:33] 2001.

[00:37:35] It was basically.

[00:37:37] What's that?

[00:37:38] Hot one in the arts.

[00:37:40] Sure.

[00:37:41] Yeah.

[00:37:41] Yeah.

[00:37:42] Before, uh, the things happened, it was the gift shop for, uh, Muppets 3d.

[00:37:48] And it remained that way for a while in 2005.

[00:37:51] It was rethemed to the studio store with a red sign with black stripes, much like you

[00:37:56] would see pretty much now.

[00:37:58] And with the rest of the land, um, and similar to Disney MGM studios.

[00:38:03] Uh, it was intentionally industrial with Mike and Sully plushes and some Muppets merch.

[00:38:10] Monsters Inc.

[00:38:11] Opened up in that area on January 23rd, 2006.

[00:38:15] So this story did double duty with Muppet stuff and Monsters Inc.

[00:38:21] Uh, duty.

[00:38:22] Yes.

[00:38:23] I see.

[00:38:24] You're trying to get a point just for saying duty.

[00:38:26] Um, okay.

[00:38:28] No, no, no.

[00:38:29] I was going to get you one.

[00:38:31] Um, okay.

[00:38:33] Interesting.

[00:38:34] Uh, I'm curious why you're going here first.

[00:38:36] Uh, because that is, I suppose we do.

[00:38:39] We passed another store on the way down the street, but you know what?

[00:38:42] This is where I put the history because the other store on the street has, um, almost

[00:38:47] no history because it's been there since the start and it's not interesting.

[00:38:51] So on to the next iteration of the PhilharMagic gift shop.

[00:38:56] The what now?

[00:38:57] The PhilharMagic gift shop.

[00:38:59] PhilharMagic.

[00:39:00] How many decades are you ahead of me, sir?

[00:39:03] Well, I, I'm not, I'm not trying to be combative.

[00:39:05] I'm trying to play along.

[00:39:06] I'm, I, I, I'm just trying to like figure out where you're going with this.

[00:39:10] Oh my goodness.

[00:39:11] I'm sticking with the studio store for this.

[00:39:13] Okay.

[00:39:13] Okay.

[00:39:13] Got it.

[00:39:14] Okay.

[00:39:14] Go for it.

[00:39:15] Go for it.

[00:39:16] Great.

[00:39:17] Huh?

[00:39:18] All right.

[00:39:19] After the double duty.

[00:39:21] He said it again.

[00:39:22] He giggled again.

[00:39:23] All right.

[00:39:24] We're good.

[00:39:25] Uh, 2015 during the frozen fund promotion, this little kiosk was converted to wandering

[00:39:31] Oaken's trading post with a cabin look.

[00:39:34] So, uh, wooden siding and a wooden sign featuring fake snow.

[00:39:39] They sold frozen stuff there.

[00:39:42] It went back to the studio store with wooden, wooden siding afterward in 2017.

[00:39:49] This became the summer of heroes store.

[00:39:52] That's what I'm looking at right now.

[00:39:53] Oh my.

[00:39:54] And it sold Marvel merch.

[00:39:56] Thank God.

[00:39:57] Yes.

[00:39:59] Uh, today it is still there as the studio store.

[00:40:02] They sell toys, plush apparel, accessories, mini and Mickey, mini and Mickey ears.

[00:40:08] Yes.

[00:40:08] Uh, it changes up all the time.

[00:40:10] What they sell there is based on what's going on in the area.

[00:40:13] Uh, you can get a magic key discount based on how awesome you are.

[00:40:18] Uh, 10 to 20% off.

[00:40:21] It looks like a box right now.

[00:40:23] It looks like a box with racks outside.

[00:40:25] They sell things you might need or want.

[00:40:29] And there you go.

[00:40:31] That is, uh, the studio store.

[00:40:34] It is very Colorado ish in that it looks like a box.

[00:40:38] Um, thank you.

[00:40:39] Yes.

[00:40:45] I don't.

[00:40:46] Okay.

[00:40:47] What?

[00:40:50] I don't know what I'm looking at.

[00:40:52] It looks, I can see, I can definitely see the history of it by looking at it in terms

[00:40:57] of it like being, Oh, I could see how this used to be a snowy thing.

[00:41:02] And that would be interesting.

[00:41:03] Now it's just Marvel crap in a place where there is no reason for Marvel crap to exist.

[00:41:11] True.

[00:41:12] But there are more historical places for Marvel, Marvel crap that, um, are still in this area

[00:41:19] that won't count because they don't exist anymore.

[00:41:22] Right.

[00:41:22] And they shouldn't.

[00:41:23] I mean, let Regis Philbin rest in peace in that building.

[00:41:27] I, um, that's a joke about how it is.

[00:41:31] Studio 17.

[00:41:33] Yeah.

[00:41:33] Studio 17.

[00:41:34] Um, okay.

[00:41:35] I'm so, okay.

[00:41:37] Wow.

[00:41:37] Wow.

[00:41:37] Wow.

[00:41:38] You want me to start out with the real place.

[00:41:40] Okay.

[00:41:40] No, these are such different problems because there's over try and then there's like this.

[00:41:46] If we get to the end and you only apply zero points to everybody, I don't care.

[00:41:51] Okay.

[00:41:53] Jimmy's not bored.

[00:41:54] This might end up being one of those episodes where it's just declaring a winner.

[00:41:58] I don't know if I can do point by point here, but, um, you know what?

[00:42:02] Just for fun.

[00:42:03] You each get a point.

[00:42:04] Why not?

[00:42:04] Yay.

[00:42:05] Hooray.

[00:42:05] Let's hear them sounds.

[00:42:08] I love that idea.

[00:42:11] Um, all right.

[00:42:12] Well, I'm going to counter that with two more.

[00:42:15] Oh my.

[00:42:16] The first one will take about seven seconds.

[00:42:21] Sunset ranch pins and souvenirs.

[00:42:24] If you want to know the history, listen to the last episode about, and the restaurants where Eric goes into detail about the farmer's market of, uh, Los Angeles.

[00:42:34] Disney has no description of this store.

[00:42:37] Wow.

[00:42:37] He met that time limit, by the way.

[00:42:41] It's technically on the map.

[00:42:43] Uh, I'm looking at Google maps.

[00:42:45] Okay.

[00:42:46] Which one is that?

[00:42:47] It's the sunset ranch pins and souvenirs.

[00:42:50] Okay.

[00:42:50] Pins and souvenirs.

[00:42:51] Oh yes.

[00:42:52] Yes.

[00:42:52] I bought pins there.

[00:42:53] I'm sure you had a lanyard.

[00:42:55] Ooh.

[00:42:56] They have a lot of lanyards.

[00:42:57] Don't like that judgment.

[00:42:57] Okay.

[00:42:58] Okay.

[00:42:58] None.

[00:42:59] You know what?

[00:43:00] Excuse me.

[00:43:02] Um, moving on to once upon a time.

[00:43:04] I'm just, just out of curiosity.

[00:43:06] Why are you tying in real Vogue with Beverly sunset?

[00:43:10] It's not on the website.

[00:43:12] I didn't talk about it.

[00:43:13] Okay, cool.

[00:43:14] That's fine.

[00:43:15] Hmm.

[00:43:15] Uh, once upon a time.

[00:43:17] The Carthay Circle Theater at the Studios Park is another theater as a shop.

[00:43:26] It's at the end of the sunset Boulevard shopping street facing the Tilead Zone Tower of Terror.

[00:43:31] I'm playing for Disneyland.

[00:43:32] I'm tired of that.

[00:43:32] Supreme.

[00:43:34] Sorry, that's Supreme.

[00:43:35] Hmm.

[00:43:38] It's one of the more interesting shops with Disney themed kitchen and serving items.

[00:43:43] It used to be.

[00:43:45] Uh, from Disney.

[00:43:46] Find your happy ending at this Art Deco style cinema.

[00:43:50] You said it.

[00:43:51] Selling Disney themed apparel, jewelry, and headwear for all ages.

[00:43:55] Headwear, Dan.

[00:43:57] Uh, my favorite thing about this store is, uh, they have, uh, pictures of the Carthay Circle Theater, the premiere.

[00:44:05] There's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs posters because this is supposed to be the Carthay Circle Theater.

[00:44:11] Sorry, I'm just, I'm trying to navigate the Disney World.

[00:44:15] Oh, there's the map.

[00:44:16] How do you deal with this thing?

[00:44:17] This is so counterintuitive.

[00:44:19] We just walked there.

[00:44:20] It's fine.

[00:44:21] Everything is north.

[00:44:22] What's the latest attraction?

[00:44:23] All the maps are north on top.

[00:44:26] No, I get it.

[00:44:26] Just like the, how, how you deal with the, um, just the, the layout of this site is terrible.

[00:44:31] The bevy of options for purchasing and eating things in the parks.

[00:44:36] And it's like, you're looking at, I'm, there's no expand the map option.

[00:44:40] It's just, here you go.

[00:44:42] Oh, that's dumb.

[00:44:42] They're both the same.

[00:44:43] Dan, that is a separate episode.

[00:44:46] Wait, did they change it?

[00:44:47] They're the same now.

[00:44:49] No.

[00:44:49] Oh yeah, they are.

[00:44:51] Did, is that recent?

[00:44:54] Yeah, pretty recent.

[00:44:55] I'm a, I've spent a lot of time on these websites.

[00:44:57] They're exactly the same.

[00:44:58] This is awful.

[00:44:59] How does anyone, it's like, they're trying to make it hard.

[00:45:02] Mm-hmm.

[00:45:04] Wow.

[00:45:05] Okay.

[00:45:05] Sorry.

[00:45:06] Um, you were saying once upon a time, I'm looking at the stuff.

[00:45:09] Yeah.

[00:45:09] It's based on Carthay Circle theaters, the facade, they have stuff.

[00:45:12] I hate that.

[00:45:13] That's such a bad thing for them.

[00:45:14] And there, there is some cool nods to the original, to the theater, to the premiere, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves posters.

[00:45:21] The rest of it's just crap.

[00:45:23] Merchandise.

[00:45:25] The end.

[00:45:26] How hard are you?

[00:45:27] Um.

[00:45:28] I'm not that excited about this.

[00:45:29] They, okay.

[00:45:33] Do they, do they remind you constantly that it's, that it's where the, uh, Snow White is for me?

[00:45:41] Giant Ann signs.

[00:45:42] Hey, come on, look.

[00:45:45] Um, no follow-up questions.

[00:45:47] Oh, sorry.

[00:45:48] Okay.

[00:45:50] Um, I just, I really, because I mean, let's face it, they all, all the shops basically sell the same crap now, right?

[00:45:58] For the most part.

[00:45:59] Right.

[00:45:59] Some of them are specific to, like, the first one was Pixar stuff.

[00:46:03] Like, that's where you get your Pixar stuff.

[00:46:05] What does it have to do with Sunset Boulevard?

[00:46:07] Absolutely nothing.

[00:46:08] Um, but that's, I think, true for a lot of Disney now.

[00:46:11] Yeah.

[00:46:11] The merch is just the merch.

[00:46:12] Like, if it's not directly at the exit of a ride, it's just kind of whatever.

[00:46:17] Yeah.

[00:46:18] And, and that's, that's the same on, on both coasts where it's just kind of like, we pattern this after a thing.

[00:46:24] And, hey, why not come in?

[00:46:26] Here's where we sell books.

[00:46:28] Here's where we sell hats.

[00:46:30] Do they sell books?

[00:46:31] Um, but yeah, Dan, and even when it isn't the exit of a ride, we'll get to in a little bit.

[00:46:36] It doesn't necessarily mean that they sell merchandise from that ride.

[00:46:39] Right.

[00:46:40] Mm-hmm.

[00:46:41] But anyway, it's, it's Eric's turn.

[00:46:43] Yeah.

[00:46:44] I, is it though?

[00:46:46] The issue.

[00:46:47] So that I'm noticing so far, the trend I'm noticing so far, and I'm, I should, I shouldn't be surprised is that what is annoying me about the Disney world shops is generally what annoys me about Disney world, which is like, let's make a theater shop.

[00:47:03] Let's make another theater shop.

[00:47:05] And then I would imagine that like, they were like, okay, well we hate, we're going to build this other theater building.

[00:47:12] And someone's like, let's put a shop in there.

[00:47:16] Uh, but anyway, I don't want to focus too much.

[00:47:21] It's that, that is just, that is very irritating to me.

[00:47:23] And I'm going to, I'm going to let it go.

[00:47:25] So Eric, there's no frozen merchandise in these stores.

[00:47:31] Eric, tell us more.

[00:47:32] Hi Brandy.

[00:47:34] Hi Brandy.

[00:47:35] Brandy says hi.

[00:47:37] Probably.

[00:47:38] Tell us more about shopping.

[00:47:41] All right.

[00:47:42] Uh, well, we'll not go into the completely extinct store yet, I guess.

[00:47:47] Uh, Dawn Hollywood.

[00:47:49] From Regis Philbin building?

[00:47:50] Is that what you're talking about?

[00:47:51] Uh, I don't know.

[00:47:52] Oh yes, yes.

[00:47:53] The Regis, uh, yeah.

[00:47:55] No.

[00:47:55] Studio 17, the building that is criminally used.

[00:47:59] I, I don't know.

[00:48:00] I'm just, I'm not trying to steer you.

[00:48:03] I'm just trying to figure out where you're going.

[00:48:05] That's, that's all I'm doing.

[00:48:06] So if you want me to go to stage 17, we can.

[00:48:10] Well, the directions were very clear from the entrance of the park to the back of the park of the, the land.

[00:48:15] And you started at the end.

[00:48:17] I started in the middle.

[00:48:19] Okay.

[00:48:19] That's fine.

[00:48:20] Well, yeah, they're all kind of at the same place.

[00:48:23] Uh, it's not a big land.

[00:48:26] Okay.

[00:48:26] Let's, let's hit the things that are still there.

[00:48:29] Yeah.

[00:48:30] Okay.

[00:48:30] Um, if you want to touch on studio 17, I don't want to like put you in a box.

[00:48:35] I don't want to put you in Colorado there, but, um, when it comes to history, they've got the best, even though they don't exist.

[00:48:43] Right.

[00:48:44] So, I mean, we, by all means, that's stuff you should share.

[00:48:48] And then let's get to the things that are, are still there.

[00:48:53] That's poetry.

[00:48:55] No, it wasn't.

[00:48:56] Okay.

[00:48:57] Can I make a motion that from now on it's, it's going to be called these Regis filming.

[00:49:04] Instead of the Regis building, it's the Regis filming.

[00:49:07] I'm into that.

[00:49:08] Hey, also, also Wyoming.

[00:49:10] I'm sorry.

[00:49:10] I didn't want to, uh, ignore your also that, that you are also boxy.

[00:49:15] I just forgot the name of your state.

[00:49:18] So, okay, go ahead.

[00:49:19] They're the home for Foxy boxing.

[00:49:21] So yeah, you should respect them.

[00:49:25] I met someone at a, at a, at a bar some time ago who was very proud.

[00:49:33] Like very, very, very proud as though it were an actual title that they were the Foxy boxing champion of, uh, Riverside County.

[00:49:45] Oh, the whole county you say.

[00:49:48] Take in, take in all that that means.

[00:49:51] And, and I did not engage further with this person.

[00:49:55] Were you able to count all three of the teeth?

[00:50:00] No, it didn't.

[00:50:01] It wasn't, it wasn't in that direction.

[00:50:03] It was more of.

[00:50:04] Yeah.

[00:50:05] Yeah.

[00:50:06] Oh my.

[00:50:07] Well, uh, you know what?

[00:50:08] Let's go, let's go into the distant past, the murky past of 2000 and 2001.

[00:50:17] Uh, opening September 14th, 2001, a notorious date, not that notorious, but you know, close to a notorious date, I suppose.

[00:50:28] Uh, who wants to be a millionaire?

[00:50:30] Play it.

[00:50:31] I do.

[00:50:32] Uh, this attraction closed August 20th, 2004.

[00:50:36] You know about the, the, the, the game show, right?

[00:50:42] Uh, not only do I know about the game show, but I played it in play it several times.

[00:50:50] How many points did you end with?

[00:50:52] And I got as far as 32,000.

[00:50:54] Wow.

[00:50:55] I got a pen.

[00:50:56] Is that your final answer?

[00:50:58] It's my final answer.

[00:50:59] A pen?

[00:51:00] A pen.

[00:51:01] Anything else?

[00:51:01] Pen.

[00:51:01] P-I-N.

[00:51:02] Not P-E-N.

[00:51:03] Oh, pen.

[00:51:04] It might've got, wait.

[00:51:05] Did you trade it?

[00:51:06] I might've gotten a hat.

[00:51:07] I don't know.

[00:51:08] I don't remember.

[00:51:09] But I just remember.

[00:51:10] Did you ever call a random person?

[00:51:13] No, I did not.

[00:51:15] Cool.

[00:51:16] Final answer.

[00:51:17] Okay.

[00:51:18] Um, yeah, there was, that was a silly attraction, but I'm glad it was there.

[00:51:23] I'm glad it's gone too, but they should put something in there.

[00:51:27] Well, it, it left.

[00:51:29] And, uh, the next place that came in, uh, Dan, let me ask you a question.

[00:51:34] This is only vaguely related to who wants to be a millionaire.

[00:51:39] Do you want to build a snowman?

[00:51:43] Um, yes.

[00:51:45] Any warehouse with actual snow falling from the ceiling?

[00:51:50] Uh, sure.

[00:51:52] Okay, great.

[00:51:55] Is that what, is that what happened?

[00:51:57] Yes.

[00:51:57] That's what happened.

[00:51:58] Uh, and they put a, an attraction into that space where you could come in and you could sled.

[00:52:04] Oh God.

[00:52:05] Down a slight decline.

[00:52:08] Uh, you could, uh, purchase food in there.

[00:52:12] Uh, Scandinavian meatballs with cream sauce and lingonberry drizzle.

[00:52:17] Uh, Eric, you're starting to do that thing you sometimes do where I'm tempted to give the other park a point because the things that you're talking about is no longer there.

[00:52:24] They, they don't exist, but you know what?

[00:52:27] Do you want to go to Ikea, Dan?

[00:52:30] Uh, no.

[00:52:32] Let's not, let's not tempt Dan to give points away.

[00:52:35] Um, I could give you my Swedish meatball recipe, but that has nothing to do with anything here.

[00:52:42] Uh, this area ran from January 7th, 2015 to April 30th, 2015.

[00:52:48] Uh, then it came back in January.

[00:52:52] Uh, sorry.

[00:52:53] No, November.

[00:52:54] January is right above it.

[00:52:55] November 13th, 2015 to January 7th, 2016.

[00:53:00] You could buy frozen stuff there.

[00:53:03] Right.

[00:53:04] In addition to the food and the sled.

[00:53:06] Like Swanson foods or like.

[00:53:07] No, uh, the Gordon's fishermen was no longer there.

[00:53:12] Okay.

[00:53:13] Yeah.

[00:53:13] He died from exposure.

[00:53:17] Mercury poisoning.

[00:53:19] Um, October, 2020.

[00:53:21] Jimmy, Jimmy, does Jimmy want to say things?

[00:53:25] No, I was just said, I said mercury poisoning, right?

[00:53:28] When Dan did it.

[00:53:28] And I said, you beat me to it.

[00:53:30] And I was muted.

[00:53:32] All right.

[00:53:34] Well, October, 2020, uh, this area that has been a, it's right.

[00:53:41] It was on the perimeter of the property and it was neglected for a long period of time,

[00:53:46] but it became the backlot premier shop in downtown Disney.

[00:53:50] Despite being in DCA, it was one of the areas where if you came back to the property during COVID times,

[00:53:56] where you could not go into either of the parks, you could go into this shop, which was a giant warehouse where they would sell you stuff.

[00:54:06] You know, it'd be kind of fun to revisit.

[00:54:08] We did a live stream of me on opening day.

[00:54:13] We were there.

[00:54:14] Yeah.

[00:54:15] With my family doing a tour of downtown Disney.

[00:54:19] The day it opened during COVID.

[00:54:22] That was great.

[00:54:23] Mask required and less stationary, actively eating.

[00:54:26] And there was a line to get into the Disney store.

[00:54:31] Uh-huh.

[00:54:32] World of Disney that extended across the esplanade from the entrance of the store.

[00:54:39] Listener Disneyland fans, imagine you're in front of the store.

[00:54:43] Mm-hmm.

[00:54:44] The line went across the esplanade, past the ticket booths on the other side four times.

[00:54:53] Well, this was before the internet existed.

[00:54:56] Nobody could order things on Amazon.

[00:54:58] That's right.

[00:54:59] But yeah, that might be kind of fun to explore.

[00:55:02] Where do you even find that?

[00:55:03] Do you think we could find that on Ears Up archives somewhere?

[00:55:06] We can.

[00:55:07] I want to find out what exciting things are currently in that giant warehouse.

[00:55:12] Well, currently in that giant warehouse, there was in June of 2021 a giant Marvel shop

[00:55:20] that sold things from the Avengers campus that had recently opened.

[00:55:25] You didn't have to go into the Avengers campus to buy this stuff.

[00:55:29] Oh, thank God.

[00:55:29] It's like across the park, so that's good.

[00:55:31] Oh, yeah.

[00:55:32] And they sold the Web Slingers robots in case you wanted those.

[00:55:38] They sold the little add-ons for your wrists so you could get better scores.

[00:55:43] They sold lots of clothing, and now there's nothing.

[00:55:45] I think I figured out how I'm going to have to do the pointing here.

[00:55:49] I'm just pointing out that this is not a real place that exists.

[00:55:52] No, no.

[00:55:52] I get it.

[00:55:53] I'm just telling you.

[00:55:54] I'm catching on to themes here, though, that I'm not loving.

[00:55:58] It's the opposite of ba-da-ba-ba-ba.

[00:56:00] It would be ba-da-ba-da-ba-da.

[00:56:03] Ba-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba.

[00:56:06] I'm going to figure out what that is.

[00:56:09] I don't understand why in this area that you have talked about there aren't Pixar things that you can buy because you have Mike and Sully's world of fake-ass odds.

[00:56:22] It's very far from Pixar land.

[00:56:24] Well, yeah, but so is the, what's it called?

[00:56:27] The Beverly place.

[00:56:29] It's not a real place.

[00:56:32] On the holiday.

[00:56:33] Does he sound like it?

[00:56:33] Hold on.

[00:56:34] Let me hold it there.

[00:56:35] The Beverly is just a storefront.

[00:56:36] It doesn't exist.

[00:56:37] Right.

[00:56:38] But the Beverly sunset is Pixar stuff.

[00:56:41] It has a lot of Pixar stuff and it's far away from toy story land.

[00:56:44] Okay.

[00:56:44] Okay.

[00:56:45] So I'm just saying that like the precedent has been set that you could like the studio store could be a little satellite store for Pixar crap.

[00:56:54] Sure.

[00:56:54] Or, and then the giant warehouse, if it's not going to be turned into an attraction, which it should be, um, if you're going to keep it, uh, a store.

[00:57:05] Autopia part two.

[00:57:06] Okay.

[00:57:07] Autopia part two.

[00:57:08] Or like, I mean, you have Mickey's fill her magic there, which by the way, I don't know why it didn't go into that building, but okay.

[00:57:14] Whatever.

[00:57:14] That's a part three.

[00:57:16] Um, there's, it's just, I mean, to have an empty building at all is just pure wasted space.

[00:57:27] I understand that they need somewhere to wash the, you know, 3d glasses for making for PhilharMagic, but like 12 people go in that place a day.

[00:57:35] Um, so I'm going to do opposite point in time for Disney world because that's ridiculous.

[00:57:43] I love that.

[00:57:43] Um, he loves that idea too.

[00:57:47] Uh, Dan, it would be, so it's, the opposite would be.

[00:57:52] Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.

[00:57:57] Hold on.

[00:57:57] I'm going to figure it out.

[00:58:01] Jimmy.

[00:58:01] David Lynch knows how to do it.

[00:58:03] Yeah, I know.

[00:58:03] I know that the next, the next thing is still Eric's store that actually exists.

[00:58:09] Um, and Dan, if a naming device for award wieners from sells hot dogs and schmoozies sell smoothies, what do you think an apparel shop in circa 2000s, Disney Imagineering post Disneyland Paris, not doing well?

[00:58:27] What do you think they would call that store?

[00:58:30] Sorry.

[00:58:31] Well, what was it?

[00:58:32] I was, I was, I was typing in ba, da, ba, ba, ba, and it's ab, ab, ab, ad, ba.

[00:58:38] Anyway, ab, ab, ab, ab, ab, ab, ab.

[00:58:42] Get a recording.

[00:58:43] We need to do it right.

[00:58:45] David would not scrimp on that.

[00:58:47] Ab, ab, ab, ab, ab, ab, ab, ab, ab, ab.

[00:58:58] Sorry, let's hear you.

[00:58:59] Ab, ab, ab.

[00:59:01] Ab, ab, ab, ab, ab, ab.

[00:59:01] Uh, Dan naming devices.

[00:59:02] Yes.

[00:59:03] Okay.

[00:59:03] You're going to, you're, you're Michael Eisner's Walt Disney company.

[00:59:07] Hello.

[00:59:07] 2000. Okay. And you're thinking, oh, we have a hot dog store. What do we call it?

[00:59:12] Award wieners. Award wieners. Yes. We have a smoothie store. What do we call it?

[00:59:16] Smoothies. We have an apparel store. What do we call it?

[00:59:21] Oh, I don't know. Eric?

[00:59:27] I'm torn. The apparel store in Walt Disney World?

[00:59:32] No, the story you're about to talk about.

[00:59:37] But no, I'm not about to talk about a story. You're up next.

[00:59:40] What? I've got Gone Hollywood and off the page. Come on.

[00:59:44] It's called Gone Hollywood.

[00:59:46] Okay. Okay. I get what you're doing.

[00:59:48] It's talking to Eric's turn because he just told you about his thing doesn't exist, but I will go.

[00:59:52] Rock around the shop.

[00:59:54] Okay. Oh, God. Oh, no, no.

[00:59:58] Rock around the shop.

[01:00:00] No, no.

[01:00:00] Oh, Disneyland gets a point. That's stupid. I cannot tolerate that.

[01:00:07] That's... No.

[01:00:09] It's inside the exit. It is the exit gift shop for Rock and Roller Coaster starring Aerosmith.

[01:00:15] Right. And Aerosmith famously sang Rock around the Clock.

[01:00:19] Naturally. One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock rock.

[01:00:21] Oh, my God.

[01:00:23] Anyway, so Rock around the Shop.

[01:00:25] The theming is it's inside of a building that is supposed to be like a soundstage, but it's also a recording studio.

[01:00:32] Love in a merchandise store. There. I mean, shop looks like a lady. Like, come on.

[01:00:37] Ooh, that's a good one.

[01:00:40] I'm in.

[01:00:41] Shop looks like a lady.

[01:00:44] Yeah.

[01:00:44] I like that. Shop looks like a lady.

[01:00:46] Hold on, Aerosmith. I'll help them out.

[01:00:48] All right.

[01:00:50] Love in a merchandise store.

[01:00:55] Dream on. Shop on.

[01:00:57] Shop on.

[01:00:58] Crazy.

[01:01:00] Saving.

[01:01:01] Crying. Shopping.

[01:01:03] Angel.

[01:01:05] Cast member.

[01:01:07] Hold my soul.

[01:01:09] Sweet emotion.

[01:01:12] Sweet promotion.

[01:01:13] Sweet promotion.

[01:01:14] I mean, come on.

[01:01:15] There's so many different things you could do.

[01:01:17] Living on the edge.

[01:01:18] Shopping in the store.

[01:01:19] Okay.

[01:01:19] No.

[01:01:21] I suspect at the time they may have been entertaining other bands, but they don't want to rebrand the store.

[01:01:30] Anyway, it's a studio building.

[01:01:32] Disney says.

[01:01:33] Lay it down.

[01:01:34] Lay your credit card down.

[01:01:36] There you go.

[01:01:38] No.

[01:01:39] Survive rock and roller coaster starring Aerosmith, then walk this way.

[01:01:44] No.

[01:01:45] Walk this way.

[01:01:46] Mm-hmm.

[01:01:47] For Aerosmith gear, music, and ride-related items.

[01:01:55] Train kept a rolling.

[01:01:57] Savings kept a coming.

[01:02:00] Come together.

[01:02:01] Shop together.

[01:02:03] Shop looks like a lady.

[01:02:07] All right.

[01:02:08] So in the store, you get all the things I just mentioned.

[01:02:11] And imprinted on the counters are a hidden Mickey and a hidden Minnie, both made out of guitar picks.

[01:02:21] Mm-hmm.

[01:02:22] There you go.

[01:02:23] Dan's impressed.

[01:02:25] Sorry, listener.

[01:02:26] Dan doesn't always express his emotions.

[01:02:31] Oh, sweet emotions?

[01:02:32] Eat the rich.

[01:02:33] Be the rich.

[01:02:34] There we go.

[01:02:36] Sweet Dan motions.

[01:02:40] Fly away from here.

[01:02:42] Shop in here.

[01:02:44] Fly away to here.

[01:02:48] Amazing.

[01:02:49] Shopping.

[01:02:52] Amazing shop.

[01:02:54] Amazing shop.

[01:02:55] Yes.

[01:02:56] All I'm saying is it would have taken try.

[01:03:01] Not even a hard try.

[01:03:02] Just try.

[01:03:05] Rock around the shop is unexcusable.

[01:03:09] Or inexcusable.

[01:03:10] Either one.

[01:03:11] Inexcusable.

[01:03:11] Either one.

[01:03:12] So Eric has two more stores.

[01:03:13] I just have one.

[01:03:14] So it's Eric's turn.

[01:03:15] Okay.

[01:03:15] All right.

[01:03:16] Gone Hollywood.

[01:03:16] I went from six to three.

[01:03:19] Now I have more than he does.

[01:03:20] I have no idea.

[01:03:21] There we go.

[01:03:22] Gone Hollywood.

[01:03:23] Jimmy mentioned this one.

[01:03:24] It's on Hollywood Boulevard.

[01:03:27] It's on the left.

[01:03:28] It is based on the 3050 Wilshire Boulevard building.

[01:03:32] It's the Bullocks Wilshire building.

[01:03:35] Bullocks.

[01:03:36] Bullocks.

[01:03:37] Art deco style holds together a lot of the fake themes along this street.

[01:03:42] This was the flagship location of Bullocks, which opened in 1929.

[01:03:47] Plenty of visitors during its heyday included notables like Mae West and Walter Elias Disney.

[01:03:55] I don't know who that is.

[01:03:57] By 1989, all Bullocks were owned by Macy.

[01:04:01] Macy owned all the Bullocks.

[01:04:04] This location in the real world is currently the Southwestern Law School.

[01:04:10] Visit swlaw.edu.

[01:04:13] It's a beautiful campus in downtown Hollywood.

[01:04:14] But in promo code Supreme.

[01:04:17] Yes, please.

[01:04:19] Yeah.

[01:04:20] Code Supreme if you want to sign up to attend a law school.

[01:04:24] For 15% off tuition.

[01:04:26] No, no.

[01:04:27] Four and a half percent off tuition.

[01:04:30] It's close to the courts.

[01:04:31] Inclusive.

[01:04:32] It's an inclusive campus.

[01:04:34] It's hashtag woke.

[01:04:37] Visit the website for a virtual tour of the campus.

[01:04:40] Famous people went here maybe.

[01:04:42] But yes, four and a half percent off your tuition.

[01:04:49] Supreme.

[01:04:51] You can go to this actual store for apparel, accessories, and pins.

[01:04:56] It's not listed on the map.

[01:04:58] That's really weird.

[01:04:59] It's been here since February 2001.

[01:05:01] I want Dan.

[01:05:03] No, I know it exists.

[01:05:05] I've been inside the building.

[01:05:06] I'm not doubting that it exists.

[01:05:09] I'm just noticing that it's not listed on...

[01:05:14] Are you looking at shops or attractions?

[01:05:17] Shops.

[01:05:18] Like they have.

[01:05:18] It's noted as gone Hollywood, but there's no like little clicky thing where you can go, show me more.

[01:05:24] Yeah, okay.

[01:05:26] It's weird.

[01:05:26] They change up the merchandise in this shop quite a bit.

[01:05:30] I've bought Oogie Boogie merchandise there during that time of day.

[01:05:36] They have a random amount of Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Halloween stuff based on the season.

[01:05:45] Originally, apparently.

[01:05:46] Oh, Jimmy's showing a thing about the shop.

[01:05:50] No, I know.

[01:05:51] I'm looking on the website.

[01:05:52] I'm just...

[01:05:53] I'm only stating the thing I saw is weird.

[01:05:56] That's all.

[01:05:58] When the shop originally opened, it sold designer pet products and Zen accessories to fit in with the Hollywood-y theme.

[01:06:11] I can't find a whole lot else about that other than that statement.

[01:06:17] Zen, yes.

[01:06:18] Like vaguely religious meditative stuff and also dog stuff.

[01:06:24] Do they still sell that here?

[01:06:26] No, no.

[01:06:27] They sell Mickey stuff right now.

[01:06:29] That's...

[01:06:30] Yeah.

[01:06:30] So they sell things about real things.

[01:06:32] Yes.

[01:06:32] In fake Hollywood land.

[01:06:34] Yeah.

[01:06:35] As opposed to Zen, they spread...

[01:06:38] Okay.

[01:06:39] Yeah.

[01:06:39] Nobody knows that's real.

[01:06:41] Come on.

[01:06:42] I mean, the building's nice.

[01:06:44] It's not a theater.

[01:06:46] If I'm being really honest, I am tempted to give it a point, but probably only because I like the building and we've already covered that.

[01:06:55] It's a nice building.

[01:06:56] It's small.

[01:06:57] The shop is small.

[01:06:58] The shop is small, but I find it pleasant.

[01:07:03] Have you bought anything there ever?

[01:07:06] I don't remember when I've bought anything.

[01:07:09] Anything besides a magic band at any Disney or food at any Disney property.

[01:07:15] I'm not a shopper.

[01:07:17] This is why I'm judging because I don't...

[01:07:20] It's not a thing for me.

[01:07:22] Okay.

[01:07:22] But I can tell you that that is...

[01:07:25] It's a pleasant building to go in.

[01:07:28] And I don't know if that is point worthy, but that might be a holding point on Disneyland's side.

[01:07:34] Dan, I need to interject.

[01:07:37] Yeah.

[01:07:38] Gone Hollywood is not on the map.

[01:07:41] It is not there anymore.

[01:07:42] I know.

[01:07:44] It's on the app, but it's not on the map.

[01:07:47] Yeah, you're right.

[01:07:48] It's not on Disneyland.com.

[01:07:50] It's really weird.

[01:07:51] And I mean, I know it's still there.

[01:07:52] I'm not...

[01:07:53] I just searched it in Disneyland.com and it does not come up.

[01:07:56] Yeah.

[01:07:58] So maybe that erases the holding point because it should be on the thing.

[01:08:03] It's not an obnoxious store.

[01:08:05] But not on Disneyland.com.

[01:08:07] Yeah.

[01:08:07] I mean, I don't...

[01:08:08] Look, I don't love it, love it, but it's a store that I have...

[01:08:12] I sometimes go into just...

[01:08:15] Oh, it is on it.

[01:08:16] It says Gone Hollywood, but there's no little thingy.

[01:08:18] Let me look up.

[01:08:22] Dan's right.

[01:08:22] It does say on the app or on the map on Disneyland.com, it says Gone Hollywood.

[01:08:27] Yeah.

[01:08:28] As like, that's what it is, but there's no clicky thing.

[01:08:31] There's no icon.

[01:08:32] You know what it is?

[01:08:33] You know what it is that I think I'm wanting to give it a point for?

[01:08:36] And I don't know if this is fair or not, but I think I'm identifying where it's going for me.

[01:08:42] That building works as a really, really good transition from the entrance buildings and that string of shops on that end.

[01:08:54] Fair.

[01:08:54] It's almost like a continuation of the idea, but it also becomes more defined as a Hollywood thing.

[01:09:02] If it exists.

[01:09:04] Which it does.

[01:09:05] The app says it does.

[01:09:07] The website says it doesn't.

[01:09:08] I mean, I'm looking on the website where I see the words Gone Hollywood.

[01:09:13] Yeah, we've all been there.

[01:09:14] But it doesn't have a link.

[01:09:17] I don't know.

[01:09:18] I mean, it's physically there.

[01:09:20] I was there like a month ago.

[01:09:21] No one's arguing that that's a possibility.

[01:09:25] It's just weird.

[01:09:28] It's next to award wieners, so it may be stolen glory.

[01:09:34] I'm really torn.

[01:09:36] Jimmy, do you have any argument against me giving it a point for that reason?

[01:09:41] It's hard to say because we don't know if it's a thing.

[01:09:43] You may as well award points for who wants to be a millionaire play at store because it just doesn't exist.

[01:09:48] No, I know it's there.

[01:09:49] That's gone.

[01:09:50] Can you go in there?

[01:09:50] I'm not claiming that's there.

[01:09:51] I have no reason to suspect that they would close that place.

[01:09:56] It's in the app.

[01:09:57] It's not on the website.

[01:09:58] This is just, I mean, Disney's digital presence is insane anyway.

[01:10:03] I think we're getting too focused on this.

[01:10:06] Yeah, I really don't care.

[01:10:07] That's my official stance.

[01:10:08] That's my holding.

[01:10:09] I'm going to keep that as a holding point if I need it.

[01:10:11] Disneyland's already in the lead.

[01:10:15] Jimmy, what do you have for Disney World?

[01:10:17] Okay.

[01:10:17] The last shop at Hollywood Studios, Sunset Boulevard, is the Tower Hotel Gifts.

[01:10:26] Now, naming, fine.

[01:10:28] It's the Tower Hotel.

[01:10:29] It's the gift shop.

[01:10:30] When you go to a hotel, they call it the gift shop.

[01:10:33] Let me remind you, the point is to win here.

[01:10:36] Oh, Tower Hotel Gifts.

[01:10:39] Oh, yeah, I don't care.

[01:10:42] Tower Hotel Gifts, Dan.

[01:10:44] You can listen back to the Tower of Terror Guardians episode for more details on the building

[01:10:51] and the inspiration and everything else.

[01:10:53] From Disney, terrifying gifts and chilling curios await you in this special shop

[01:10:58] if you're brave enough to take them home with you.

[01:11:01] Huh?

[01:11:02] Mm-hmm.

[01:11:03] Very much like the Rock Around the Shop, Dan.

[01:11:08] Mm-hmm.

[01:11:08] You can buy merchandise from the ride.

[01:11:11] Like that.

[01:11:12] Tower of Terror, Tower Hotel Gifts, you can buy.

[01:11:16] Say it with me.

[01:11:18] Nightmare Before Christmas.

[01:11:20] Oh, God.

[01:11:20] Oh, God.

[01:11:23] It's a lot of Nightmare Before Christmas, Birch.

[01:11:25] In a place that doesn't.

[01:11:27] In the exit of the Tower of Terror ride.

[01:11:30] Now, you can also buy Tower of Terror merchandise, like a bell cap, like a bellman's hat, Tower of Terror on it.

[01:11:37] You can buy a bell, like a bellboy bell, Tower of Terror on it, Hollywood Tower Hotel.

[01:11:44] That's why they're called that.

[01:11:46] You can see a Tip Top Club poster.

[01:11:50] The Tip Top Club, of course, being the club that Steve Guttenberg went to.

[01:11:56] Can you purchase, like, whimsical, like, versions of things that you would be able to purchase at a regular hotel, if it was a famous hotel?

[01:12:06] Like a robe?

[01:12:07] Bathrobes, yes.

[01:12:08] Yes, you can.

[01:12:08] Okay, okay, okay.

[01:12:09] There are hotel-themed merch you can buy, yes.

[01:12:13] Like ashtrays and a holder for all my toothpicks, possibly?

[01:12:17] You can buy toothpick holders, no ashtrays.

[01:12:19] Okay.

[01:12:21] But you can also buy the DVD of the Tower of Terror, starring Steve Guttenberg and Kirsten Dunst.

[01:12:31] I mean, that's got to be a point.

[01:12:33] I think so, too.

[01:12:36] Have I bought that?

[01:12:36] No, that's fine.

[01:12:37] Hang on.

[01:12:39] Have I bought the DVD there?

[01:12:41] Yes, I have.

[01:12:42] Yes.

[01:12:43] Did you already have the DVD when you bought the DVD?

[01:12:45] Yes, I did.

[01:12:45] Yes.

[01:12:48] I love that idea.

[01:12:50] Steven gets it.

[01:12:52] Yeah.

[01:12:52] Anyway, that's all the shops at Disney Hollywood Studios in Sunset Boulevard, Hollywood-themed land.

[01:12:57] I rest my case.

[01:12:58] I do like also that it looks like a hotel, which is a dumb thing to say, but it could have been worse, I guess.

[01:13:08] It does look like a hotel gift shop.

[01:13:10] Yeah.

[01:13:11] Why are they selling Nightmare Before Christmas stuff there?

[01:13:12] I don't know.

[01:13:13] Because scary things are scary, I think, is what they are going for.

[01:13:17] That's right.

[01:13:18] All right.

[01:13:20] Eric, this is a good one for you.

[01:13:22] For all the marbles.

[01:13:24] Well, at Jimmy's place, I once bought a book about the Twilight Zone.

[01:13:30] That was about all of their episodes.

[01:13:32] But you know what?

[01:13:33] That was a long time ago, and I haven't seen that since.

[01:13:44] The real one has plenty of Asian food markets.

[01:14:06] Okay.

[01:14:08] It was named a cultural monument in 1988.

[01:14:12] Currently, the store in the park sells statues, painted art, books, watches, jewelry, etc.

[01:14:22] I go there almost every trip because there's interesting stuff there.

[01:14:29] There's a weird set piece on the marquee as you head in.

[01:14:36] It's Dumbo, the Queen of Hearts, Simba, pages of paper.

[01:14:39] They make it look like a place where people are drawing things, which they do.

[01:14:45] If you go inside, this is one of the places on the property where you can find an artist drawing live.

[01:14:54] He's drawing live.

[01:14:56] He's not drawing live images.

[01:14:58] The images aren't live, but he's live as he draws images.

[01:15:01] Or she, or they draw images onto paper.

[01:15:05] And you can make requests and buy their stuff directly from them.

[01:15:12] So are you telling me that this is a shop in which you can go and see a thing happen that doesn't require you to purchase a thing in order to enjoy the thing?

[01:15:23] You could walk in and watch a person sitting at a desk with a light underneath their table drawing something, and you can go,

[01:15:32] Yay!

[01:15:33] And then they're like, would you like to buy this?

[01:15:35] No!

[01:15:37] And you could leave.

[01:15:39] I think that's a point.

[01:15:42] The closing when the customers don't come!

[01:15:47] And I liked it.

[01:15:48] It has an obnoxious marquee in front.

[01:15:52] I was worried that it might not.

[01:15:54] It still fits in with the early days of the park, where it has been since park opening.

[01:16:02] It's still obnoxious.

[01:16:04] It's your exit from the Animation Academy on the next side of the street.

[01:16:09] In all honesty, I think that's what makes it tolerable.

[01:16:14] Okay.

[01:16:15] There's a clear connection between, like, you can see why it's obnoxious.

[01:16:19] It's like, oh, it's connected to the animation building.

[01:16:21] This is where Animation March happens.

[01:16:24] Um, I, whereas the signage on schmoozees is just inexcusable.

[01:16:31] Hey, look at that.

[01:16:33] Let's go.

[01:16:34] Honey, let's go.

[01:16:35] Don't look at that anymore.

[01:16:37] Yeah.

[01:16:37] Um, yeah.

[01:16:40] And I, I noticed that it's open eight to eight to 10.

[01:16:43] That's good.

[01:16:44] Open till 10.

[01:16:45] Yeah.

[01:16:45] Uh-huh.

[01:16:45] Uh-huh.

[01:16:46] Um, I also enjoy this store as much as I enjoy any store, meaning that I will occasionally

[01:16:53] go through and go, that's kind of cool.

[01:16:56] I don't know why anyone would buy it.

[01:16:58] Dan, did you know that your Magic Key could get you 10 to 20% off based on how spendy you

[01:17:01] are with your Magic Key?

[01:17:03] I'm aware of that.

[01:17:04] I don't.

[01:17:04] Okay, good.

[01:17:05] It's not, it, it, it, it's, I don't think it's ever like me going, oh, this is too,

[01:17:16] it's, it's not about, I mean, it's expensive, but it's not about it being too expensive necessarily.

[01:17:21] Okay.

[01:17:21] It's just, I don't like, I don't like most of the stuff.

[01:17:24] You don't want a little statue of Stitch?

[01:17:27] I don't want a statue of Brian Eno.

[01:17:30] And I like, I adore that man.

[01:17:31] You know, like I, that's just, that's not, I mean, I don't, you know how much of a Bowie

[01:17:38] fan I am.

[01:17:39] And like the only Bowie merch I had, Jimmy bought for me and I love it, but I wouldn't

[01:17:44] have bought it for myself.

[01:17:46] You mean that statue of Bowie laying hands on Brian Eno while he shaked, he's shaking

[01:17:52] hands with Stitch?

[01:17:54] Exactly.

[01:17:55] That.

[01:17:56] Yeah.

[01:17:56] I'm just, I'm, I'm not a memorabilia person.

[01:17:58] I'm not a merch person.

[01:18:01] It's just, and it's not even about like my staunch anti-capitalist stance or anything.

[01:18:07] I'm like, totally like, I'm fine with consumerism as long as it's in check, but like, I'm glad

[01:18:12] you're fine with that.

[01:18:14] It's just not a thing.

[01:18:17] It's like, it's like watching sports.

[01:18:19] I just like, I guess that's a thing for people.

[01:18:21] I don't care.

[01:18:24] So I think we, I mean, unless I should we just say we have a winner?

[01:18:30] Cause we can.

[01:18:33] I've just been spending the last five minutes looking for gone Hollywood on Disneyland.com.

[01:18:37] And the first, the first response of 387 results is this Sonesta Anaheim hotel.

[01:18:46] It's not there.

[01:18:48] It doesn't exist anymore.

[01:18:50] I've got, I mean, I've got Duchess of Disneyland that has a picture of the front of the store

[01:18:55] and the price range of 20 to $70.

[01:19:00] Yeah.

[01:19:01] Can we get a phone number for it?

[01:19:04] Hold on.

[01:19:07] Do we need to call them now to prove they exist?

[01:19:11] Because this web, I've seen, I swear I spent a while looking at this today.

[01:19:18] Okay.

[01:19:20] Number, um, gone.

[01:19:25] Hollywood.

[01:19:28] Contact us.

[01:19:29] The Hollywood ball.

[01:19:31] Should we call the Hollywood ball?

[01:19:33] Thank you for calling the Disneyland resort.

[01:19:35] There we go.

[01:19:36] We are currently experiencing long wait time.

[01:19:38] Oh man.

[01:19:39] And appreciate your patience.

[01:19:40] Everybody's calling to ask if the store's open.

[01:19:42] Hang on.

[01:19:42] Let me see.

[01:19:43] Which number did you call?

[01:19:46] 714.

[01:19:48] Well, there's an 8-1.

[01:19:49] I'm going to talk to you about some of our other shows.

[01:19:51] 4-6-3-6?

[01:19:52] Yeah, that's the one.

[01:19:53] We have, of course, Ears Up.

[01:19:57] By the way, I think we've decided on the winner, but we'll talk about that.

[01:20:02] While we're experiencing long wait times, some of the other shows on the network, we have Ears Up.

[01:20:08] We used to have Ears Up.

[01:20:09] I'm going to talk about Concierge.

[01:20:11] Yeah, I'll get to you.

[01:20:12] And we got Peony Pod, where they talk about Marvel things.

[01:20:17] It might start getting really interesting.

[01:20:19] Wait, no.

[01:20:20] They do past Marvel things.

[01:20:23] Anyway, listen to the show.

[01:20:24] It's good.

[01:20:25] So, yes.

[01:20:26] As I was saying very smoothly, there's also a Bantha Milk podcast, where they talk about all sorts of milk.

[01:20:38] They sample milk.

[01:20:41] All of them milk.

[01:20:41] They taste the milk.

[01:20:42] They milk each other.

[01:20:43] It's weird.

[01:20:44] Oh, wow.

[01:20:46] Some strange audio.

[01:20:48] And occasionally, they talk about Star Wars as well.

[01:20:52] Jimmy, what you got going for Concierge?

[01:20:55] Concierge.

[01:20:55] Well, at Concierge, we just finished our Christmas in July promotion.

[01:21:00] That's fitting.

[01:21:02] Just like Disneyland.

[01:21:03] If you booked a trip, a package, not just tickets, but if you booked a package with Concierge in the month of July, you will receive a $50 Disney gift card prior to your trip.

[01:21:16] Nice.

[01:21:17] Can I use it on milk?

[01:21:19] Any kind of milk you want.

[01:21:22] You can't use it at Gone Hollywood, that's for sure.

[01:21:26] Apparently, it doesn't exist.

[01:21:28] I booked five vacation packages in July.

[01:21:32] Sorry, I don't want to interrupt you, but just looking at my Google News Feed, I just want to put it out there that Iman Khalif was born a woman.

[01:21:45] There we go.

[01:21:45] Keep going.

[01:21:46] Sorry.

[01:21:46] Oh, yeah.

[01:21:47] Yeah, I've heard about that.

[01:21:49] Okay, so the Rohrbach family.

[01:21:54] T. Rohrbach booked a package to Disney World.

[01:21:57] Father-in-law J. Rohrbach just booked a package.

[01:21:59] They booked a package in May.

[01:22:01] They booked their flights with me.

[01:22:02] This family loves the alphabet, it sounds like.

[01:22:05] Yeah.

[01:22:05] I'm sure there's multiple other first initials.

[01:22:08] Steindler family booked a trip to Disneyland Paris, along with the Stilly family, along with the me family, except it's just me.

[01:22:18] Disneyland Paris, September 2024, baby.

[01:22:21] Nice.

[01:22:22] So your family.

[01:22:24] It's just me.

[01:22:25] But yes.

[01:22:25] Oh, okay.

[01:22:26] Oh, just you.

[01:22:27] Okay.

[01:22:27] Yeah.

[01:22:27] But I did book five vacation packages to various Disney resorts in the month of July.

[01:22:34] So everyone I just mentioned will be getting a Disney gift card.

[01:22:38] Sweet.

[01:22:39] Good job, everybody.

[01:22:40] I just mentioned.

[01:22:41] Doing a little birthday trip to Disneyland Paris.

[01:22:43] A little birthday trip.

[01:22:44] In fact, yeah.

[01:22:44] Going to Denmark for work.

[01:22:46] And I was going to lay over at Charles de Gaulle on the way home.

[01:22:50] And I'm like, hmm, I wonder if that layover should be 72 hours.

[01:22:54] And it is.

[01:22:55] That's smart.

[01:22:57] Hooray.

[01:22:59] Excited about that.

[01:23:00] But anyway, so you can book your packages.

[01:23:02] You can book your flights with concierge, the whole deal.

[01:23:05] Don't think about it.

[01:23:06] Just let concierge take care of it.

[01:23:08] I don't know if I told this story last time.

[01:23:10] I might have.

[01:23:11] So stop me.

[01:23:12] I did.

[01:23:13] Never mind.

[01:23:14] It was a good story.

[01:23:15] Anyway.

[01:23:15] I said, yeah.

[01:23:16] Concierge.

[01:23:16] Who's the best?

[01:23:18] Who's the best concierge?

[01:23:20] No.

[01:23:20] Who's the best shopping place?

[01:23:22] Oh, yeah.

[01:23:23] That's right.

[01:23:24] Oh, God.

[01:23:26] Supreme.

[01:23:29] Yeah.

[01:23:30] Who is the Supreme shopping location?

[01:23:32] Dan, I'll just keep talking until you're ready to make a decision.

[01:23:35] No, this is hard.

[01:23:36] Hold on.

[01:23:36] Let me talk through my thinking process.

[01:23:39] Because it's.

[01:23:40] Oh, no.

[01:23:41] Because it's not easy.

[01:23:44] It's.

[01:23:45] I mean, it's stupid.

[01:23:46] This should be easy.

[01:23:47] But I don't.

[01:23:48] I actually want to put some thought into it.

[01:23:50] Um.

[01:23:55] It's.

[01:23:57] Based on the actual points given.

[01:24:00] And vibes.

[01:24:03] I.

[01:24:04] Gosh.

[01:24:04] It's so hard.

[01:24:05] Because it's like.

[01:24:07] I think.

[01:24:08] California Adventure.

[01:24:09] Has.

[01:24:10] The more.

[01:24:11] Interesting.

[01:24:12] Overall.

[01:24:13] Shopping experience.

[01:24:14] And it doesn't have anything.

[01:24:16] Like.

[01:24:17] Like.

[01:24:18] As a theater.

[01:24:18] That's a shop.

[01:24:20] Yeah.

[01:24:20] Which is nice.

[01:24:22] But at the same time.

[01:24:24] The flaws that I find in.

[01:24:28] Hollywood Studios.

[01:24:30] Are just kind of the same flaws.

[01:24:32] That.

[01:24:32] I find in the entire resort.

[01:24:34] Short.

[01:24:34] So.

[01:24:35] I don't know how fair it is.

[01:24:39] I think.

[01:24:40] No.

[01:24:40] Okay.

[01:24:40] Between off the page.

[01:24:43] And.

[01:24:44] Shopping in an elevator.

[01:24:46] I.

[01:24:46] I think it has to go to.

[01:24:48] Disneyland.

[01:24:49] I.

[01:24:51] I think.

[01:24:52] I think off the page.

[01:24:58] Off the page.

[01:24:59] Makes the whole thing.

[01:25:00] More interesting.

[01:25:01] And.

[01:25:02] Just.

[01:25:02] There's.

[01:25:03] There are so many unforced errors.

[01:25:05] With theming.

[01:25:06] And everything.

[01:25:07] Like.

[01:25:07] There's.

[01:25:08] Just give me one good idea.

[01:25:11] For shot.

[01:25:11] Like.

[01:25:11] Anything that is actually.

[01:25:13] Whimsical.

[01:25:14] And.

[01:25:15] Fun.

[01:25:16] I mean.

[01:25:17] Okay.

[01:25:17] There's the.

[01:25:17] The Hollywood Tower.

[01:25:18] But like.

[01:25:20] That's just.

[01:25:20] Kind of.

[01:25:21] Adding to the.

[01:25:23] It's an exit shop.

[01:25:24] Yeah.

[01:25:24] It's an exit shop.

[01:25:26] It's a well done.

[01:25:27] It's a well themed.

[01:25:27] They did a good job.

[01:25:28] It feels like a hotel gift shop.

[01:25:30] So.

[01:25:30] Yeah.

[01:25:31] But.

[01:25:31] And I feel like.

[01:25:32] I feel like that point.

[01:25:33] Belongs more to the.

[01:25:34] Ride though.

[01:25:35] Yeah.

[01:25:36] I would tend to agree with that.

[01:25:38] Yeah.

[01:25:38] Walt Disney World.

[01:25:39] Does sell Pandora stuff.

[01:25:41] Yeah.

[01:25:42] We talked about that.

[01:25:42] They have.

[01:25:43] And not James Cameron Pandora.

[01:25:45] No.

[01:25:46] No.

[01:25:46] This is.

[01:25:47] Yeah.

[01:25:47] They.

[01:25:49] They sell jewelry.

[01:25:50] It looks like a jewelry store.

[01:25:52] Yeah.

[01:25:53] With some other merch.

[01:25:54] I mean.

[01:25:55] It's kind of a coin toss.

[01:25:57] But with just a little.

[01:25:58] A little kitty cat batting the coin over to.

[01:26:02] You know.

[01:26:03] To Disneyland.

[01:26:04] I think.

[01:26:04] Meow.

[01:26:06] Anyway.

[01:26:07] That's the show.

[01:26:08] Yeah.

[01:26:10] We're.

[01:26:11] We're.

[01:26:11] I already did all this stuff.

[01:26:13] You already did the things.

[01:26:14] I already talked about.

[01:26:15] The Bowie's planning.

[01:26:15] Oh.

[01:26:16] What I was saying.

[01:26:17] With the shows.

[01:26:18] I didn't get to this.

[01:26:19] I think we got cut off.

[01:26:22] Eric and I have been doing a show called Bowie's planning.

[01:26:25] It is.

[01:26:26] Very fun for us.

[01:26:27] I hope it's also fun for the listeners.

[01:26:30] If you.

[01:26:31] Want to hear a show where I actually like what we're talking about.

[01:26:35] And.

[01:26:36] And very much so.

[01:26:37] And Eric.

[01:26:37] Eric kind of almost has no idea what he's talking about.

[01:26:40] Which is fun.

[01:26:42] That's a.

[01:26:42] That's a good show.

[01:26:44] And.

[01:26:44] You know enough about what happens on this show.

[01:26:46] To know what might happen when Eric and I are on a show together.

[01:26:50] It's fun.

[01:26:51] We have fun.

[01:26:51] And it's a.

[01:26:52] It's a show where you're going through the David Bowie discography.

[01:26:56] Yes.

[01:26:56] Eric has never.

[01:26:57] Yeah.

[01:26:57] Album by album.

[01:26:58] Eric has never listened to.

[01:27:01] He's never done the deep dive.

[01:27:02] I've done the deep dive several, several times.

[01:27:05] And.

[01:27:07] We are about to get into station to station.

[01:27:10] So.

[01:27:10] I almost listened to station to station while.

[01:27:12] While I was taking my notes for this.

[01:27:14] But then.

[01:27:15] I was distracted.

[01:27:16] So I stopped it.

[01:27:17] Yeah.

[01:27:17] That's.

[01:27:18] That's.

[01:27:18] That's.

[01:27:18] That's a good choice.

[01:27:20] So Bowie fans.

[01:27:21] You know what that means.

[01:27:23] We are.

[01:27:24] And.

[01:27:24] Oh.

[01:27:24] And Eric seems to be liking it so far.

[01:27:26] So that's good.

[01:27:27] Spoilers.

[01:27:28] That's what I seem like.

[01:27:32] Anyway.

[01:27:33] That's the show.

[01:27:36] This is where music happens.

[01:27:39] Stay tuned for.

[01:27:40] More.

[01:27:41] Better content.

[01:27:43] Oh.

[01:27:43] More better.

[01:27:44] I don't.

[01:27:45] Huh.

[01:27:45] More better.

[01:27:46] I don't undermine our.

[01:27:47] Things you care about.

[01:27:48] Look.

[01:27:49] If I was a listener.

[01:27:50] I would.

[01:27:51] These would be some of my favorite episodes.

[01:27:53] Where it's like.

[01:27:53] Oh wow.

[01:27:54] They're.

[01:27:54] They're really struggling to get through this.

[01:27:57] Oh.

[01:27:58] There's music.

[01:27:59] So.

[01:28:00] Yes.

[01:28:00] Don't forget.

[01:28:01] It.

[01:28:02] To.

[01:28:03] Bye.

[01:28:03] War bonds.

[01:28:04] We love you very much.

[01:28:06] I don't know what else to say.

[01:28:07] Good to each other.

[01:28:08] Good to each other.

[01:28:10] And.

[01:28:11] Court.

[01:28:12] Is.

[01:28:13] A journey.

[01:28:53] Fresh.

[01:28:54] Big.

[01:28:57] Stay tuned for the next podcast.

[01:29:00] Billy club.

[01:29:02] All of our episodes should end with.

[01:29:03] Podcast about Billy Joel.

[01:29:05] The Billy club.

[01:29:06] The Billy club.

[01:29:08] The Billy club.

[01:29:09] Have you still not started watching.

[01:29:11] The boys.

[01:29:12] No I still have it.

[01:29:13] I will.

[01:29:14] I think about it a lot.

[01:29:15] I really think you would enjoy it.

[01:29:16] Or just finish the bear.

[01:29:18] And Barry.

[01:29:19] I'm starting with the bees.

[01:29:20] Mm hmm.

[01:29:21] So Barry.

[01:29:22] Then the bear.

[01:29:23] Then the boys.

[01:29:25] Barry got less interesting after season one.

[01:29:28] Sure did.

[01:29:29] Sure did.

[01:29:31] Oh.

[01:29:31] Oh.

[01:29:31] I don't actually care anymore.

[01:29:33] They jumped the shark.

[01:29:35] Pretty quick.

[01:29:37] Yeah.

[01:29:37] Yeah.

[01:29:37] They went on for like another two up series.

[01:29:40] Right.

[01:29:41] Four seasons.

[01:29:43] Ugh.

[01:29:43] I think we just started season four like two months ago and we just have not gone back.

[01:29:48] Yeah.

[01:29:49] The bear is great.

[01:29:50] Season three is not the best.

[01:29:52] Yeah.

[01:29:52] But I will see the boys.

[01:29:54] And a fun fact of the show.

[01:29:58] The phrase jump the shark originated from Happy Days.

[01:30:03] Mm hmm.

[01:30:03] Where the Fonz jumped over a shark on a surfboard.

[01:30:08] Oh.

[01:30:09] And I hear Harry Winkler is in that show.

[01:30:12] Henry.

[01:30:13] In Barry.

[01:30:14] Yes.

[01:30:15] So the phrase jump the shark basically means the show's run out of ideas.

[01:30:20] Now they've jumped the shark.

[01:30:21] It's just lame now.

[01:30:23] In the third season of Arrested Development, the original series on Fox, Henry Winkler played

[01:30:31] Barry Zuckerkorn, no relation to the serial killer in Barry.

[01:30:36] Spoilers.

[01:30:37] Anyway, that character, they were on a dock and they were trying to figure out how to keep

[01:30:42] people watching the show and keep ratings and keep it on Fox.

[01:30:47] The character, Barry Zuckerkorn, played by Henry Winkler on the dock, there was a dead

[01:30:52] shark on the pier and he jumped over it.

[01:30:56] It's very funny.

[01:30:58] It was great.

[01:30:58] Life imitating art, imitating life.

[01:31:01] Oh.

[01:31:02] Gordon's a jerk.

[01:31:03] Fresh baked.

[01:31:04] It's a dream inside a dream.

[01:31:05] I remember their quote live episode.

[01:31:08] That was so funny.

[01:31:10] Where they ended with, we did it!

[01:31:12] Yeah.

[01:31:13] Wait for the East Coast feed or the West Coast feed.

[01:31:16] That's such a good show.

[01:31:18] Anyway, stop recording.

[01:31:20] Okay.

[01:31:21] Okay.
