So today's episode is one that I don't always love because I have to work, but it's fun and we're keeping it light and we've had a very fun, busy weekend. Yeah, we have. We haven't recorded in a week because we got ahead last Sunday, so it's been a full week since we even sat down and record. So I feel like it's been forever. Yeah, golly. I can't even believe we were at Typhoon Lagoon on Thursday with Lazy. Yeah, we had a great trip going down to Typhoon on Thursday with Lazy and her friend and staying a jury in that night. And we can chat a little bit about it now because we're not going to do any kind of real episode on it. But yeah, any specific thing you want to say? Like, why don't you? Well, I will say starting out at Typhoon, and we did the same thing where we were going to try to get an umbrella and everything. And we did, but instead of going over the bridge and down by the water, we went the opposite way to the right by the bathrooms and everything. It was neat. We got an umbrella and we got one right in front of basically Miss Adventure Falls. Yeah. But I think I like the water one better. So my little tip would say, you know, go over the bridge and try to get down there. Yeah, and you can go either right or left at that point and be able to cross it, but when they're queuing you, those are the two areas. And yeah, stick to left over the bridge area. But yeah, it was wonderful. And then we stick it through in. Yeah, we did have some crazy rain come through. But once we were in the resort and just hanging out, it was great. We went to Disney Springs later and got some salt and straw and kind of let the kids play and do whatever they wanted to do and just had a really nice time and then came home Friday. Yeah. So it's super weird. Like then Friday we were at the pool and then, no, Saturday and Sunday. Yeah. So we're going to do a fun one for this one. And it is fun. I mean, we love doing these episodes once you've done your homework this. Yeah. And honestly, I wasn't too bad because it was Hollywood. And I think the last time I was like, all right, I'm not having to look like through a whole bunch of parks. Right. So I was able just to pull up Hollywood. So it is a little easier. I feel like. And it was kind of good timing for this because, you know, when we were just there the other week when we did our, you know, our random Disney day that we kind of like ended up at Hollywood studios and deciding to do that that morning was based on this. You know, episode series. So then I was like, you know, this is a good one to throw in now. And then, you know, because that's where all of these items were selected for us. Yeah. When we had our random Disney day. And now we get to select for ourselves. So the way we always do this is we are going to pick a location to drink and what you would get. We're going to pick a location to eat a snack and what you would get. We're going to do the same with a quick service and a table service. Then we move on to where you would shop, what you're shopping for. And then I added in, we didn't have these in the past episodes that we did, but a character of meet and greet. Because we did this on a random Disney day. So we added that in. You get to pick one show to see and then an attraction to ride. Now, a little, little part of this game with Rhonda and I is that we cannot pick the same thing. And to make that part fair, we'll flip a coin. Rhonda is heads. I will be tails. We'll flip a coin for each of these. Whoever gets their heads or tails. We'll go first. So we have backups as well. So again, we've done our research and everything. So, but we got to have a backup because, you know, if Rhonda picks one that I pick, then can't pick it anymore. So are you ready to start? I've got my trusty quarter and first one is heads. So Rhonda, where are you going and what are you getting to drink at Hollywood Studios? Well, I actually picked Oga's. Good. Very good pick. And the Fuzzy Tonton. It is 1850 though. So crazy. It is crazy. It is a mix of sweet, like, juices and vodka. And then it's got that fuzzy stuff that makes your lips feel a little tingly. It does. It's really weird, but it's really cool. Yeah. I mean, that's such a perfect location. I think, I think that's the location. And then you get anything you want there. And really, like everything there is good. It's just very, very expensive. And there, you know, for cocktails, there are everything you're pre-mixed. You know, so for cocktails, you're not getting your, your possible 1850s worth. You know, if you're sitting at your favorite bar at Disney and, you know, you order something similar and they're mixing it to order. So something to notice. So I decided to, I decided just not to pick Oga's at all, even because there was nothing that was standing out for drink wise, you know, they're all good. So I actually went to a roundup rodeo for the grown up peanut butter and jelly shake. So this is peanut butter whiskey, vanilla smoothie, and then grape jelly for 15 bucks. I had this when we ate there, what the second day that they were open. And it was outstanding. It was so good. And you can get something very similar, except they also use a blackberry liqueur in theirs over at tune in lounge. And, and, and if you're sitting down there at 50s. So they have one and theirs is, I think, 15 bucks as well or something like that. What did you go then for a backup? Cause I always like to talk backups baseline. I was going to pick baseline, but I went looking and their wild strawberry lemonade is really good. That's non alcoholic and then you can add vodka and stuff. But honestly, every time I went, there was nothing really there that I got like specific. It would be just my normal, like vodka and water and lemon from Mike. Right. But, um, so I actually went with Mama Melrose, the chocolate martini. They only reason, but it was $16. It was a chocolate martini. There was like, um, white liqueur in it, some type of like white chocolate, like, and then like, I was reading it and it was like, holy moly. I don't think I really, and it was just, it was just fantastic. It was really good. I did. So the one good, that was the one good food or whatever beverage item that came out of Mama Melrose. Correct. Yeah. Meaning, Angela, the wonderful cast member in our server was definitely a highlight coming out of there. Um, I went for my backup. I did go non alcoholic over at baseline with the strawberry hibiscus soda for 459 that you can add liquor to as well. Mike had actually back when I was drinking recommended adding whiskey and that was super good with it. So that's what I used to do the one time that he recommended it. I was like, I kind of just want something different. And that's what what Mike offered. But yeah, you can get it just 459 if you want just the soda. It's actually on tap. Yeah. So it's super, super good. All right, we're going to flip for where to eat and what for a snack. And, oh, this is, I keep always get confused with the two heads. Um, it's actually tails, even though it has a person's head. So you get to go first. Yes, I get to go first. So I'm actually going to go to the market and get a Jack Jack num num cookie for $6.19 because it is stupid. Good. It is the, the simplest chocolate chip cookie you can have done your little sea salt on top, done to absolute perfection. It's thick. It's chewy. When you get it, it's warm. Yeah, but we brought it all. No, we did take a bite or two because it was warm. Yeah. And then we brought it home and ate the leftovers. And while it wasn't still warm and you obviously could zap it in the microwave. Yeah. It was just is like moist and chewy and perfect as it was when it was warm. Yep. And it took us forever to have this thing. And it is, it's one of my favorites. Like, I will stack it up against, again, Gideon's is a whole other level of cookie and style. But I put this up against Summer House, you know, and those cookies, again, they're different styles, but oh, it's so good. I love that thing. So that's what I decided to go with my number one pick. What's yours? Well, you were asking about drinking for baseline, but no, but that is where I'm going for my snack. And I'm doing a Bavarian pretzel with the beer cheese or spicy. And it is $10. And pretzel is only $10. Really? Wow, I would not really good. They did take off the puff stick pastry thing, but it's still fine because that pretzel is what they sell. I mean, it's so good. It's the go-to there. I really like for sure. I love that. I had switched last minute because my original, but then I thought you were going to pick it. What was it? Was a want to breakfast wrap that was a roaster. So I thought you were going to pick it. So I put it second. So we both ended up making it second because we didn't want to ruin it. That's really sweet of each of us actually. That's kind of, that's cute. So, yeah, I mean, literally on my paper last minute, I did arrows to swap them because I was like, you know what, if it lands on heads and Rhonda gets it. I'm sorry if it lands on heads and I get it tails, you know what I meant. I didn't want to say Ronto and steal your first pick because I just figured that was it. So, very, very nice. All right, next is going to be wearing what to eat at a quick service in Hollywood studios. We have heads. Rhonda gets to go first. I don't think you're stealing mine because mine surprised me. Mine actually surprised me. I don't know. I've only had a bite of it ever. Oh, I picked ABC commentary. And the buffalo chicken grilled cheese. Are you serious? Yes. That's what I put. It's only 1199 and it was super good. We've never ordered it. Cat did and we each took a bite. No, I think I ordered it. The one, no, no, I think I took a bite and it was really good. And then I ordered it. Yeah, because you had the pork tacos, right? I did. Yeah. And you thought those are really good. I almost put those on there. I think shrimp tacos. You've had the Mediterranean salad. I'm telling you, ABC commentary. I'll say it right now, most underrated quick service on all of property. I don't even think that's a hot take. I don't think that's a bold statement. I think that the ABC commentary is so freaking good. And with mobile order, like it used to be prior to mobile order. Well, they went through. They were good. Then they were not great. And then they are great again. But before mobile order, even when they were good, you just didn't want to go in there because it's a mad house. Like it looks like the most popular restaurant that nobody talks about. I feel like, you know what I mean? So what do we do? So that was actually your pick. So I can't choose it, but obviously I had it. I'm going to go to your backup. Yeah, and I'm going to laugh because this could be your backup. Even though they updated it and they changed it. And they added a beat hummus docking base set in the pollution garden. Yeah. Well, now it's called the pollution falafel. It's falafel and hummus. Yeah, but they changed a little bit by adding a beat hummus to it. So they switched it a little bit, but yeah, 1329. Yeah, that's my second one. It's the best. Do you remember looking at? Did it say? Did it just have the leaf to say that it's plant based? I don't know that it's fully vegan, but it's at least vegetarian. So it's the best. It's the best vegan vegan vegetarian dish. I've had on property. Yeah, it was originally. And I've tried a lot. You know what I mean? Like I went through that whole period of six months where all I tried was plant based at Disney. And this rain supreme is one. Yes, it did. That is hilarious. That is the exact same thing. Really? Especially how random that that is. You know, and you could fill in, like we consider we consider Ronto roasters a snack for us. Like we don't consider it a quick service, but really, right? You know, somebody could easily argue with us on that one. The overnight. I almost wouldn't have a lot to do. Like if that was what they chose to do with their life, but feel free. It was. I actually was also going to pick the overnight oats because I've had those before do. And I really liked them. That's a weird consistency. I think it's the texture of it. I'm fine with texture, but I just I'm like, I should get those again one day. Well, I'll tell you what then. If anybody did want to argue and say Ronto roasters can be a snack place, but the Ronto wrap is not a snack. It's a meal, then I'll take the krill pork rinds from Ronto roasters and I'll use that as my snack. So I got you guys. I went to argument. All right. We're moving on a table service where and what to eat and mine is shocking my first one, but it's heads, but I did the same thing. I moved my first one to my second one because I know what your first one is. What is it? It's the cop salad at the Hollywood Brown Derby. Oh, actually, I put Brown Derby, but I said anything and everything, but if you had to pick one item, I would definitely say cop salad. We just ate there recently and holy moly. It was fantastic. This place is it is superior to most other table services at Disney and it's another one that I think flies way under the radar. It's fine signature restaurant. That's what I think a lot of people don't even realize. I think they think it's just a regular table service and it's not. It's fine in signature dining and they have backed it up again and again. But it's even it's it's weird. I can't explain it because even when we go to Hollywood student, like we just don't think of going there a lot. You know what I mean? Like, it's not one that's on our radar. A lot of times. I feel like if somebody says name to top five dining spots on Disney, I would leave that one out if I had to just go quick, but if I really get to think about it, it would probably make my top five on property. Just the consistency, everything we've had, but it just we don't talk about it enough. Other people don't talk about it enough and it is. Dang good. Mm hmm. Yeah, it is. So what was your first one? So I switched because I couldn't do that. I'm going to surprise you. I'm going to actually technically it's a snack, I guess, on the appetizer menu sci-fi. I think they're poison smoked chicken wings are my favorite wings on property. Those are good. They were so good. They were really good. For as much as I didn't love my meal, which was the bomb me burger, and it was nothing they did wrong. It just ended up being too. It was just pork on pork and it was too much. The rest of their burgers, everything else, their onion rings are outstanding. It's not a place I want to go often because of the atmosphere. It's just I don't want to have to get a flashlight out to see the menu now that we're old. Like, you know, I want to some be able to maybe just have a conversation, but, you know, I really do. I get why sci-fi gets a lot of love. You know, and it is very hard to book. Well, that's funny because that is what I put from my backup. Really? And I said a burger. Nice. Because, like, I mean, I had a good burger. Yeah. Yeah, Rachel, actually, that's when we did the Mama Melrose, she was like, all right, let me switch and she switched to sci-fi. And they really were fine and enjoyed their meal. So I was like, you know what, I'm going to put that just because it's a good, it's like good burgers. Like, it's just a good old burger. Did you put down roughly their burgers? They're running about 21 to 23, 24 bucks, aren't they? I think so. But I know I didn't. I think it's around that range. But I feel like, yeah, and if people are like, oh, that's kind of expensive for a burger. I mean, you're watching, you're sitting in the dining theater. And that's what we've always said. You know, you have to look at the price you pay. Internet show. Right, for atmosphere. Yeah. You know, you know, if you can take, if you can take the atmosphere out of it, you can take that burger and say, I'm going to stick it at my local restaurant. How much would I pay for this, right? Yeah. And you might go, well, you know what, I can go to Texas Roadhouse and they're probably charging 15 to 18 bucks for a burger. I bet. Possibly. Now, what if you could have that same burger, but you could be what looks like an outdoor drive-in sci-fi theater, right? Is that worth an extra five bucks, 10 bucks? You know, that's kind of up to you, but we always talk about that. And that's what I wanted to go back, because we didn't really mention, like, you know, the wings are 15 bucks. Yeah, they're pricey. I believe there were five wings. You're talking $3 a wing. Okay. That's a lot. Even if there was six wings, it's still, you know, just shy of three bucks. That Cobb salad is $25. That's a lot. But I can guarantee you, it might be the best salad you'll ever eat in your entire life. And it's a large portion. Right. So those are the things you have to look at, though, in way, you know, and especially as you start looking at budgeting a trip. You know, one of the things, and you're always better to over budget. Like, obviously, you know, so if you want to, you know, sit down and say, Hey, I really want to be hard on a budget for this trip. And I want to sit down and look at the menus. I have our dining. I want to sit down with my family. Let's kind of pre-order like what everybody thinks they would have. Let's add it up. And you want to do an entree for each adult and an entree for each kid because you feel like safe. You know, you're budgeting higher. But know that you have a lot of wiggle room, I think, based on those portion sizes. So, you know, that Cobb salad would be easily shareable as a lunch. Yeah. You know, if you're the type that doesn't have some big heavy lunch, and maybe that's not your big meal today, dinner is, then, you know, you look at saying, let's do something in room from, you know, vacation grocery delivery. Right. And the morning for breakfast and save us a bunch of money. Let's move to a light, quick service at lunch. And then maybe we save that entree per person for dinner. But if you start going breakfast, lunch, dinner, entrees for everybody, you know, hand them out like frickin Oprah, then you get an entree. You get an entree. Then I would look under your seat, Rhonda. There's an entree. Then I would look at the dining plan. Yes, 100%. Yeah. And you can do all that math. So, let's get back to what this episode was about. Now we're doing where to shop. And what are you shopping for? Oh, back up. No, my backup was Hollywood was Hollywood. Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah, it would have been my first pick. But I decided again, I didn't want to steal it from you. So I moved it. All right. So let's go to shopping. And we are going to do tales. And I'm going to go to once upon a time. It is down Sunset Boulevard on the right before you get to the Beauty and the Beast Theater. It's the it's like it's a big store. It's got all the stuff. After you pass Pandora and all that, it's that one. And I'm. I mean, honestly, I'm going to probably look at their spirit jerseys. They have a large selection of just good t-shirts. Like they've got a lot. Is that what you picked? No, but it's funny because I did say Legends of Hollywood, which is the Pandora. And then like you go into and I don't know if it's another name, but then not only on the opposite side of Pandora, but there's a lot of like little neat clothes. And sometimes there's some like rare stuff I feel like there is in there. So that's where I would go. And then I like to go. Yeah, into the next one where you are as well. Yep. No, I agree. My backup was Mickey's of Hollywood. It's the first main shop on your left. You're walking down Hollywood Boulevard. Again, it's it's. It's not as big or as flashy, but it is what, you know, creations is to Epcot what the Emporium is to Magic Kingdom. Mickey's of Hollywood is to Hollywood studios. That is where for the most part. And then the subsequent store next to it, which has mostly Star Wars and Marvel between those two shops. You can conquer every item you could pretty much need outside of magic bands. And that's really what they did is instead of building one giant Emporium, one giant creation style shop when they did MGM. Now Hollywood is they conquered everything you needed right there on Hollywood Boulevard from get your magic band and your trading pins. Oh, I want to pick up some ears. Then I want to grab a sweatshirt and I want to get the latest Marvel and a blanket and a home stuff. And then I want to get the latest and Starbucks and then I'm going to finish it off with Starbucks and get my coffee. So it's like that. That's their entire shopping district, really, which is pretty cool. I like that. It's done that way. So what did you have at your backup? I'm not sure exactly what it's called. It's the Tower of Terror shop when you're leaving. Heck yeah. Man, that is actually, that would actually should be my number one. It's just one I don't remember. Nightmare before Christmas back there in the Hollywood tell stuff. It's so cool. So it's one of those things where it's so funny. We rode with them. This is so fun. When we went to Hollywood with Rachel and TJ. Oh my God. It was so funny because it was the first time he ever rode it and I mean, I literally am like, "Okay, I'm done. Please stop." So every time I can ride it and do that, I still like going through with you. I'll ride it and then I'm like, "Okay, I'm done." But then I like walking through and seeing. Sometimes there's some good stuff back there. We should almost do a bracket challenge with ride merch. Who has the best ride merch? Because I'd say Tower of Terror and Haunted Mansion would be a championship battle on who has the better ride merch. Well, we'd have to go search into. That's what I'm saying is look at what they have for Rise of Resistance. Look what they have for Mickey and Minnie's. But see, there's also a big difference. That is specific to that ride in the lore of the Hollywood Tower Hotel. And I could be wrong. I don't know that there's a single frozen ride merchandise piece. There's frozen items, but they're not specific to the ride. That's what makes Tower so great, Haunted so great, is that they have to, all of the merch is themed to the ride because that's all that exists. You know what I mean? Or pirates, for example. Any of these originals, but if you look at something like Frozen, there's no frozen ride merch. True. Okay. Yeah, I just came up with that on the top of my head. Look at that. All right, next, our newest category is Who to Meet. And this is going to be an interesting one. We have heads. So you do get to pick first. I picked Olaf. You did? Okay. Hollywood. Yeah, because I picked my second pick. Aw, I did because he likes warm hugs. He does. And it was great. And it was just so much fun. And that's where, is that where we met Tony? No, but she was, she would bounce back between Olaf and then Mickey and Minnie. Because that was my backup. Yeah, which is an outstanding meet and greet back to back to get both of them. Yep, we just met them. So Minnie's in like her best dress and then it's Fantasia Mickey. Yes, which is really cool. It was. I ended up with Olaf second only because I went with the live action Ariel is my first because I forgot about that. That's a good one. Yeah. And I do that because with the face characters, you can carry on a conversation. Yes. So if that's not what you want, right on face characters are really the way to go. Right. I'm very awkward in the game of charades that gets played. You know, I just, I never know. I'm not, it's not good at it. I don't know what they're motioning. I don't know what's happening. Like half the time they'll point on a shirt. And I got to look down and be like, what shirt was I wearing? Oh, okay. I understand the reference now. I don't remember. So I look like an idiot. But when we did that live action Ariel, that was so good. Yeah. That was not long after she started. Yes. I'm glad to see that she's still there because it's such a wonderful interaction. Same with like any time we've done Tiana, you know, when you look at the restaurants like doing. Okay, now we get a show to see. Don't have a ton of options here. Really. It is tales. I won't steal your junior dance party, which is I'm guessing what you pick. I went with frozen sing along. Sorry. Did you go epic for first? Sunpeck Spectacular? No, I'll put pentasmic. Oh, yeah, okay. I would rather watch frozen sing along than fantastic. Really? I really enjoyed it. I'm ready for something new. Like brand new. All new. Oh, it's time. Well, I enjoyed it. It is a great show. And after we're trying to watch Luke Epcot's thing, whatever it is, luminous, the symphony of us. I'm like, whatever it is, because it changes. Right. And I think because of thinking about it. And then Rachel is going to go again. And I was like, oh, yeah, like that was good. We'll have to catch it, you know, and we can try again at the end of this month when we go. But I like that. Actually, that is the plan. I think no, no, never mind, because we're going to be the drone show again. But anyway, but my second was Indiana Jones. Yeah. Wow. Frozen sing along, not making it at all. Why why Indiana over frozen sing along at a curiosity? Just because I know we love frozen. I do love it. I do love the song. I do. I do love the songs. I do love everything. But I'm not saying I'm sick of it and I'm not saying. But I don't know. Sounds like that's what you're saying. It's just what would you want them to do something? Would you like them to go in a whole new direction in that theater? I think. Or maybe they change and go, let's do the history of frozen too. You know, I mean, maybe they do the exact same concept. Yes. But let's go ahead and do frozen too. I think they could literally take. And I mean, come on, Disney, you've got all these amazing, like, I love, I love the soundtrack to frozen. I love frozen too. Yeah. I love zombies. I love a zombie stage show in there. How freaking cool would that be? I just don't know that it could do the year round. Well, and I'm not saying maybe a year round. I'm saying, you know, some months because then not only you have descendants, zombies, these are all sing along. You can make some like, I don't know, like you can tell stories. You can do something. Would you want to see? See, well, you could put something like that in there for Halloween time. You know, so you, yeah, you do basically the way that they convert it for the nightmare show for Hollywood nights. So it's an easy conversion and they're doing that at nighttime. It's not all day. Correct. So you could literally do a Halloween overlay and have like a zombies, I think would be really cool. And you could still even have, I don't like the Christmas tag though for frozen sing along. Yeah, not that they're, how do I say it? Royal historians for zombies, but again, same kind of tell the story. Yeah, I mean, I think they could and have all these cute fun little sing along. We're getting, are we getting zombies for? Yes. No, we're getting descendants for here. Next week, I think. The 12th. Yes. Yeah. Awesome. So that's coming. Yeah, I think we're getting a zombies for. I think it's vampires. Oh, yeah, that would totally make sense. That's what we had. We had super excited. I love all these things. So, you know, I mean, and there's just so many more musicals out there that I. Greatest showman. Yeah, right now. That'd be amazing. I think it's just one of those things. That's why I didn't pick it. Yeah. That makes sense. Okay. All right. Let's move on to our final one, which is which attraction to ride. And it is tail. So I get to go first. I mean, I'm just going to go rise of resistance. Okay. Perfect. Yeah. I mean, it's rise of resistance. Yeah, that's my second pick. Okay. I mean, when it's running on all cylinders, which is now without the blasters, they're never going to move again. Just like the Eddie. Yeah, right. Yeah, exactly. You know, it's still, I mean, it's so good. Everything about it. It's so fun. It's so fun. And that was so fun riding with it. Oh, that was so fun. It was amazing. Yeah. It's just, I loved it. It was so good. Like at the very end, you know, like, Oh God, that was priceless. It was amazing. What was your number one? What do you think? That Hollywood Hollywood. I love this ride. Oh, maybe a story, maybe a story. I love it so much. So it's just fun. I got to ride with TJ this last time and I totally beat him. I won the car, though. But of course, you always do. So I didn't feel like it was on my game. I don't know why. Like I still was okay, but it is so much fun. It's fun. It's one that we try and do every single time that we visit Hollywood studios. It has so much rewrite, rewrite ability. 100%. It's just, it's outstanding. It's so good. I went with, and this really could take my first as Tower of Terror. I love that ride. I know. I'm surprised to hit your eyes. But yeah, just because I feel like, again, I think that comes down to which one could I, if I walked in the front, they said, we're going to walk you on one ride right now. What would it be? I'd be like, Oh, rise of resistance. You know what I mean? You would. I think so. Okay. I don't know that because because I have a Tower of Terror has a lot more accessibility. Yeah. You know, so it's one of those things like, I can pretty much guarantee we could ride Tower. Now, rise. Again, you rope drop or you stay till close. I mean, there's obviously many of things around it. And you can, of course, always buy an individual lightning lane. Right. And you still will be able to and they change everything here in two weeks. But yeah, I just, it still feels like that kind of unicorn, you know, you're just like, Oh. Okay. As opposed to the horse, Tower of Terror is like just a horse. Like I see the horse to see them all the time, but a unicorn show me a unicorn. I'm there. Okay. So, yeah. All right. Those fun. See, these are fun. Yeah. Don't you like it once you get into it? Yeah. And then it was super funny because of our Hollywood Day. Like, you know, we did go to, I mean, so many of them. Yeah. I mean, looking real quick. Well, Ronto Roasters, we had to do that. And then we ended up a Hollywood Brown Derby for launch. We had to do Mickey and Minnie, which was on your list. Like, so it really pits a lot of the show was beating the beast, which I was fine with that. And I almost picked that because we just saw it and just re-seeing it. I mean, it is so great. Yeah. But again, it's just an area that is right before something else now. I would agree with that. Let's keep it going. Even if it was, you know, they're going to update the little mermaid. They're not just wiping out the little mermaid show. They're going to update it, but it's still the little mermaid. Even if it was just that, you know, again, update the sing along with Frozen 2. Yeah. And I just feel like you could do the same thing here. Yeah. You updated, continued with Beauty and the Beast. We talked before about, like, almost a live action rendition. I know it is a live action, but it's a live action based on the animated movie, but for them to do live action based on the live action movie would be cool. And I know, and the thing is I understand, like, it sounds real easy for us to sit here and just go switch it to Frozen 2. You've already, I mean, you can do Frozen 2 sing along on Disney Plus. That's easy. That's a switch. No, these shows take a long time to develop. They take a long time to cast to bring the people in, you know, to write, you know, you don't realize that there were, there were scripts and stories and everything that had to be written for something as, you know, air quotes, simple, Frozen sing along. Right. You know, who knows how long that actually took to develop. So for them to change something completely would really could take a lot of time. So, you know, the one thing I didn't think about. And you're seeing. I had a thought about that. I was thinking of the end of the month and the new in the country bear reopening on the July 17th. But I know where to work it in at the end of the month. Oh, okay. Of course you do. Oh, on Saturday, the 27th of July of this month. We'll consider it a birthday present. Oh, do I need a do you need a pack for me again? Maybe it wouldn't be anything out of the ordinary. You could technically wear what you're wearing right now. But yeah, I think I will. I think it will. Yeah. Okay. So see when that comes. Okay. Thank you all. Yeah. Thank you all so much for listening. You can always play along at home.
