00:18:02,690 But beyond that, they don't count Yeah So I mean that was, it was a long, long conversation 181 00:18:02,690 --> 00:18:07,069 being at Epcot That was my favorite day Yeah Um, and I know you're, everybody's looking 182 00:18:07,069 --> 00:18:14,450 forward to the hurricane talk So Tuesday magic kingdom Wednesdays when the shit hits 183 00:18:14,450 --> 00:18:20,849 the fan, uh, Disney announced that all the parks would be closing between one and two, 184 00:18:20,849 --> 00:18:26,609 like starting to close between one and 2 PM and would be fully shut down by 3 PM Okay 185 00:18:26,609 --> 00:18:33,569 So we were stuck in our rooms from 3 PM to 9 AM the next morning Kind of just started 186 00:18:33,569 --> 00:18:39,170 out like a severe thunderstorm minus thunder because hurricanes don't produce lightning 187 00:18:39,170 --> 00:18:45,130 Oh, okay I don't know if you knew that I didn't know that we looked it up We didn't 188 00:18:45,130 --> 00:18:50,329 know what to expect No lightning produced by hurricanes, just really strong winds and 189 00:18:50,329 --> 00:19:00,130 rain So it was like from about six to or three to seven or eight It wasn't too bad 190 00:19:00,130 --> 00:19:07,730 Constant rain, little gusty And from like eight to nine and nine to 10 and 10 to 11, 191 00:19:07,730 --> 00:19:15,529 it just got progressively and progressively worse Um, so it was essentially like having 192 00:19:15,529 --> 00:19:22,190 a freight train outside of your door, but like going off for like 13 hours Oh geez 193 00:19:22,190 --> 00:19:28,289 And it wasn't like, uh, like a thunder storm where it's like you get a gust of wind and 194 00:19:28,289 --> 00:19:34,690 then it lets off and you get a gust of wind It was just at a constant, this 13 hour train 195 00:19:34,690 --> 00:19:41,490 just going by kind of wild Um, but I had some people reach out to me, uh, from the 196 00:19:41,490 --> 00:19:46,690 beer gram who lived in Florida, um, saying, Hey, if you have any questions about what's 197 00:19:46,690 --> 00:19:52,609 going on, what to do, like, feel free to reach out And I had a couple of people say that 198 00:19:52,609 --> 00:20:00,130 if anything, being at a Disney resort during a hurricane is probably the safest place to 199 00:20:00,130 --> 00:20:07,569 be during a hurricane That makes sense So, uh, that was relieving as well So I probably 200 00:20:07,569 --> 00:20:14,130 ended up falling asleep about a quarter after 11 that night Woke up in the next morning, 201 00:20:14,130 --> 00:20:18,329 never woke up through the middle of the night My kids slept all through the night Um, and 202 00:20:18,329 --> 00:20:25,430 you just wake up to some rain and residual winds And I mean, it was kind of lackluster 203 00:20:25,430 --> 00:20:31,890 for us, but we were inland in Orlando and I know like the coastal towns get it real 204 00:20:31,890 --> 00:20:44,089 bad and real severe So I'm lucky we weren't there But alas, I can say I survived a hurricane 205 00:20:44,089 --> 00:20:49,930 My, uh, my sister-in-law lives in St Pete and, um, she was fine She was like, like 206 00:20:49,930 --> 00:20:55,009 a half an inch outside of the evacuation zone So she, she was okay Minor damage, that kind 207 00:20:55,009 --> 00:20:59,630 of stuff But the weirdest part about the whole thing was that she said you could actually 208 00:20:59,630 --> 00:21:06,329 feel when the hurricane touched mainland, like the way, like all of a sudden everything 209 00:21:06,329 --> 00:21:10,970 changed Like as soon as it hit mainland, like all the winds changed, all the rain changes, 210 00:21:10,970 --> 00:21:15,849 super fucking weird Yeah It, uh, watching the, watching the weather channels down there 211 00:21:15,849 --> 00:21:23,609 is for like the news channels and they're on the weather That's, it's bizarre to see 212 00:21:23,609 --> 00:21:28,930 like the different perspective Like when we're in Wisconsin, you know, we get a severe 213 00:21:28,930 --> 00:21:35,529 thunderstorm, they're monitoring tornadoes and this and that And, you know, we get blizzards 214 00:21:35,529 --> 00:21:42,609 So to like monitor the snow and to see like weather meteorologists, like four days in 215 00:21:42,609 --> 00:21:47,369 a row, just like that, that it was the entire news They weren't even talking about local 216 00:21:47,369 --> 00:21:53,089 news It was just the meteorologist, you know, discussing the hurricane and what to do And 217 00:21:53,089 --> 00:21:56,289 I mean, they're really good down there I got to give them credit 218 00:21:56,289 --> 00:22:02,890 Yeah, they actually have a job They do And it makes sense Like they were very helpful 219 00:22:02,890 --> 00:22:07,250 Very detailed That's good I don't know Friendly about it too Like the, the meteorologists 220 00:22:07,250 --> 00:22:12,410 are like friendly, like they don't want to get you worried, but they want you to be safe 221 00:22:12,410 --> 00:22:17,609 and they want you to be protected Like, don't freak out, but also don't be stupid Right, 222 00:22:17,609 --> 00:22:23,049 right So it was, it was kind of relieving It was nice to see, but, but all in all still 223 00:22:23,049 --> 00:22:30,250 a good trip Even, even though you got rocked by a hurricane Yes Rocked like a hurricane 224 00:22:30,250 --> 00:22:38,009 I wish I could throw no one like you in there somehow, but not a scorpion show Yeah We 225 00:22:38,009 --> 00:22:44,210 were actually having the discussion on Tuesday when we were walking around magic kingdom 226 00:22:44,210 --> 00:22:51,009 because we had ponchos on all Sunday at Disney Springs ponchos on all day at Epcot on Monday 227 00:22:51,009 --> 00:22:58,009 ponchos all day at magic kingdom on Tuesday or yeah, Tuesday and then Wednesday, Thursday 228 00:22:58,009 --> 00:23:03,410 hurricane shut down and then we didn't get sun till Friday So we were discussing on 229 00:23:03,410 --> 00:23:11,569 Tuesday how we actually were thinking it was nicer walking around parks in light to mild 230 00:23:11,569 --> 00:23:18,970 rain and ponchos than walking around parks in 90 degree sun, sweating your ass off, being 231 00:23:18,970 --> 00:23:24,690 uncomfortable, waiting in lines So I, I, it really turned out to be a really great 232 00:23:24,690 --> 00:23:28,930 trip And I bet there were less people because I bet people canceled their trips So people 233 00:23:28,930 --> 00:23:34,769 can not only canceled their trips, people were getting out early to beat the storm 234 00:23:34,769 --> 00:23:41,170 And when we went to magic kingdom on Tuesday, the longest wait time we did was like 31 minutes 235 00:23:41,170 --> 00:23:47,569 That's amazing And I, what did I do? I went on space mountain and I think I waited in 236 00:23:47,569 --> 00:23:55,369 line for about eight minutes And I had these young couple of young girls that were in the 237 00:23:55,369 --> 00:23:59,930 carts behind me So we got off the ride, it was a long walk back out and they're just 238 00:23:59,930 --> 00:24:04,170 talking like, Oh, I can't believe like we got on that so fast I don't understand why 239 00:24:04,170 --> 00:24:09,529 we're not waiting in line And I turned around and I said, because everybody's evacuating 240 00:24:09,529 --> 00:24:17,549 for the hurricane So there are no, there are no locals here right now It's legit just 241 00:24:17,549 --> 00:24:22,849 tourists at the park So that, you know, you basically cut the, the attendance of the park 242 00:24:22,849 --> 00:24:29,250 in half, right? All the wait times go in half to, you know, three quarters The wait time 243 00:24:29,250 --> 00:24:34,410 was awesome I was waiting for you to cut the Ric Flair space mountain promo on them 244 00:24:34,410 --> 00:24:40,130 or something No, I could, they would have no idea Who is this old creepy man talking 245 00:24:40,130 --> 00:24:48,119 to me? Why is he wooing? Why is he referring to himself as space mountain?
