Speaker 3: This is my oldest daughter, Elliott. This is her dream car.
Speaker 4: She every time we drive past an Ionic five, she
Speaker 4: asks me, Daddy, can I have an Ionic five? I
Speaker 4: got four years until I have to worry about that,
Speaker 4: But you have a much much longer time.
Speaker 2: I know what By the time my kids are that age.
Speaker 1: I hope that the cars are just really just driving themselves.
Speaker 2: But for reals, why did these people keep getting in
Speaker 2: front of me?
Speaker 5: Well, lence, you know, when people found out that you're
Speaker 5: you guys are doing this road trip, they started to
Speaker 5: write some questions to you guys. There are specific about
Speaker 5: traveling and touring and that sort of thing. They apparently
Speaker 5: think you guys are experts. I happen to somewhat disagree.
Speaker 5: I having been in this car now with you, but you.
Speaker 4: Haven't seen me drive yet. You you might want to
Speaker 4: reserve that yet.
Speaker 6: But but would you like to take some questions from
Speaker 6: the fans that I have here?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: No, absolutely not.
Speaker 2: No major pass, wasn't it?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, no, I just.
Speaker 4: Want to drive and complete silence. Today's episode is going
Speaker 4: to be all about silence.
Speaker 5: Kids.
Speaker 3: How long can we not say words?
Speaker 2: You would last two secs.
Speaker 3: I would last literally not even a milissa.
Speaker 2: Yes, go ahead, let's answer something.
Speaker 6: I have a very controversial one to start.
Speaker 5: TRL dream asks if the this this has to do
Speaker 5: with if you're traveling on an airplane?
Speaker 2: I thought you were saying TRL dream.
Speaker 5: App Yeah, like, oh, I don't know the person's at name.
Speaker 5: Their handle is trl.
Speaker 6: Dream okay, and they're asking.
Speaker 5: On a plane, if the person behind you asks you
Speaker 5: not to lean your seatback, do you recline or do
Speaker 5: you ignore?
Speaker 2: Well, it depends on how much of a recline there is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there is certain like levels of recline, and there's
Speaker 4: also certain seats that don't recline at all.
Speaker 1: But I would say, if you know the normal, like
Speaker 1: if it goes back one inch, I will, I won't recline.
Speaker 2: I'm good.
Speaker 1: I will be very good to the person behind me
Speaker 1: because I know what it's like to have a seat.
Speaker 2: In my knees, so I will. I will politely say, sir.
Speaker 3: I would say it depends on the length of the flight.
Speaker 3: If it's a law, if like, if.
Speaker 4: It's a two to three hour flight, i'm good.
Speaker 3: If it's longer than that, I'm reclining.
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's no question.
Speaker 5: Why would you have the seats of the ability for
Speaker 5: them to recline if you weren't supposed to recline the seat?
Speaker 1: Yeah, but those but it's just really most the seats
Speaker 1: that do do the little recline, you don't even know
Speaker 1: that you're back at all.
Speaker 4: And it's and it's and it truly shouldn't be affecting
Speaker 4: the person behind you because your trade table still comes
Speaker 4: out even and it's not in your I mean you
Speaker 4: would have to be like six foot seven to notice
Speaker 4: a difference.
Speaker 2: All the planes have gotten so bad. Traveling is just
Speaker 2: a chore. It used to be so fun and what No,
Speaker 2: it is hell. I want hell.
Speaker 4: I just once, Like for me years ago, I used
Speaker 4: to want to go buddy jumping. I don't anymore now
Speaker 4: being a parent, I just don't want to risk it.
Speaker 2: That's where I want to go.
Speaker 3: Eddie World, Eadie World, I think, eaty Eddie.
Speaker 1: That's that's the places we should be going instead of
Speaker 1: Alien j That's the largest gat and it is shake
Speaker 1: everything you can think of.
Speaker 4: Okay, sorry, no, so budgy, yeah buddy w No, but
Speaker 4: I I kind of want to just go on a
Speaker 4: short flight on Spirit Airlines, just.
Speaker 3: Once, just once. I just want to experience. I want
Speaker 3: to do it for the experience.
Speaker 2: No, it makes you pay for everything, even napkins ridiculous.
Speaker 1: You know what I kind of missed back in the day,
Speaker 1: value jet, Remember that one value jet. It would always
Speaker 1: it was only this the only straight flight that went
Speaker 1: from Jackson, Mississippi to Orlando.
Speaker 2: So it was the only thing that I was.
Speaker 4: That's why we don't remember it because we didn't live
Speaker 4: in Mississippi.
Speaker 2: It was well, no, it was.
Speaker 1: It was based out of Florida, and it was so
Speaker 1: great because all the all the flight attendants were so fun.
Speaker 1: You know, it's just just a fun way they would serve.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you would get a good flight attendant and as
Speaker 1: you're taking off, they're like, well, we don't have much
Speaker 1: time to serve your peanuts and your beverages, so we're
Speaker 1: gonna start right now. And they're like, here comes the
Speaker 1: diet coke and they'll put it in the aisle and
Speaker 1: as we go up, there's like sliding down the aisle
Speaker 1: and then here comes the peanuts.
Speaker 2: It's spilling everywhere.
Speaker 1: That was the type of airline, okay, until one crashed
Speaker 1: in the Everglades and then it went bankrupt.
Speaker 6: All right, questions another here's another question from fans.
Speaker 5: All right, Miss Eileen asks, how do you pack light?
Speaker 6: Like, what's a good strategy for packing light?
Speaker 4: I don't pack light at all, no worse ones, but
Speaker 4: I can tell you I've done it.
Speaker 3: I've done it a couple of times.
Speaker 4: You bring two pairs of shoes, neutral colors. They can
Speaker 4: go with multiple outfits casual endor dressy. One pair of
Speaker 4: jeans because you know, jeans with no tears can be
Speaker 4: both casual as well as you know, you keep get
Speaker 4: away with it like a nice restaurant. You know, one
Speaker 4: button down shirt, one T shirt and uh, technically, you know,
Speaker 4: if it's an overnight trip, you get away with just
Speaker 4: one pair of underwear, one pair of socks. You could, technically,
Speaker 4: wait a minute, do all of that within one bag,
Speaker 4: small carry.
Speaker 3: On you could.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, you could.
Speaker 3: I don't, but you could.
Speaker 1: The only way to pack, like for me, is you
Speaker 1: get a backpack. That's where you put all your toll
Speaker 1: trees and definitely a pair of underwear and socks, because
Speaker 1: you never know if you're gonna get stuck on the
Speaker 1: plane for like a day or two.
Speaker 2: But what you do is you ship your stuff ahead
Speaker 2: of time.
Speaker 1: Come on, dude, you put a little box together, mail
Speaker 1: and your mail your stuff to that hotel and.
Speaker 2: There you go boom, and then when you leave, you
Speaker 2: mail them back.
Speaker 6: That is not packing light.
Speaker 2: That is packing the lightest. Thank you very much.
Speaker 5: You're not welcome, all right, Next question, so o j
Speaker 5: oj Quentos or Quintos asks on tour. When you're on tour,
Speaker 5: are you around people all the time as an introvert?
Speaker 5: I cannot imagine this. Yeah, so you do you get
Speaker 5: any alone time when you're on tour?
Speaker 1: No, the only alone time that you get on tour
Speaker 1: is when you get to your hotel room. True, And
Speaker 1: I think I'm a what am I an an introvert?
Speaker 2: Extrovert? I'm one of those.
Speaker 4: Intro Well introvert means you don't really do anything or
Speaker 4: go anywhere.
Speaker 3: Extrovert you're like always.
Speaker 1: Yeah, It's like I'd like to be an introvert, but
Speaker 1: I have to be an extrovert, right, It's whatever that is.
Speaker 2: That's what I am.
Speaker 4: I'm you know, I it's weird. Over the years, I've
Speaker 4: gotten a little bit more kept to myself. Yeah, but
Speaker 4: I am. I'm a bit of a shopaholic. So like
Speaker 4: when I check in somewhere, I usually find the closest
Speaker 4: nice mall. I go to the mall, walk around. But yeah,
Speaker 4: I don't Oh, I do enjoy just being in my
Speaker 4: room by myself. But I mean, you know, Lance, being
Speaker 4: a new parent, I know can back me up on
Speaker 4: this when you're on the road and you're away from
Speaker 4: your family. This is the kind of time that you
Speaker 4: get to yourself to kind of just have real quiet time.
Speaker 4: There's no kids running around, there's no kids jumping on,
Speaker 4: you know, on the bed asking, you know, daddy.
Speaker 3: Can I get this this? This?
Speaker 4: I miss my kids constantly, But it is nice to
Speaker 4: just kind of be in your room, kick your feet up.
Speaker 4: I can sit in my tidy whities and I'm not
Speaker 4: freaking out my girls, and and I can watch you
Speaker 4: know whatever, family guy or something.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, being still is so nice.
Speaker 3: It is.
Speaker 1: And yeah, with kids, you forget about what that feels
Speaker 1: like a little bit. Yeah, And once I put them down,
Speaker 1: I try to put them down at eight pm.
Speaker 2: But literally I don't think i've hit bedtime. Like nine thirty.
Speaker 3: That's when I go to bed is eight eight to
Speaker 3: try to.
Speaker 1: I try to, but yet usually nine thirty, especially now

Speaker 1: all the Halloween movies.
Speaker 2: Nine thirty what time they usually get.
Speaker 4: They don't have homework, so you're good, they don't have
Speaker 4: to get up the next time looking for it to
Speaker 4: turn in homework.
Speaker 3: Oh wait, till you get to the new math. Core

Speaker 3: I mean I I come from the generation of counting
Speaker 3: on your fingers and toe. I still count homes finger
Speaker 3: core math is now. They say, once you get it,

Speaker 2: There's a reason for it.
Speaker 3: I don't get it, and like that the way.

Speaker 3: Boom, there you go.
Speaker 2: You just proved me wrong, all right in your mouth.
Speaker 5: Last question for the fans, and then we'll move on
Speaker 5: to I want to get your guys opinion on some of.
Speaker 3: These travel hatches.
Speaker 5: What okay, tell me this, like, if you could only
Speaker 5: name one, what is the best road trip song? Oh gosh,
Speaker 5: like just something that you throw it on and you're like,
Speaker 5: all right, we're.
Speaker 3: Heading out on the rest of the road trips.
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean any kind of Leonard Skinner right,
Speaker 1: little Sweet Home Alabama.
Speaker 4: That's good also, and I would Alanis Morris that's good.
Speaker 2: I think Jagged Little Pill. You can't go wrong with
Speaker 2: that whole album.
Speaker 3: Yep, I like it's bad.
Speaker 4: Actually, Like lately, like I've gone on a couple of
Speaker 4: road trips, Gaga has been a big one for me.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, and uh, what's your favorite Gaga song?
Speaker 3: I mean, Alejandro, why not heard about me?
Speaker 6: What about Edge of Glory?
Speaker 3: I mean that's a great one too.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I also did my Gaga impression in Drag, so that
Speaker 3: was great. So there are.
Speaker 5: I pulled a list of some of the top travel
Speaker 5: hacks uh for this trip prior to this trip, and
Speaker 5: I looked at some of these and I was like, what,
Speaker 5: this doesn't make any sense or I don't think this
Speaker 5: is a real travel hack. For instance, like use dryer
Speaker 5: sheets in your luggage to keep your clothes smelling fresh.
Speaker 6: Like I just feel like.
Speaker 3: That does work.
Speaker 2: That's smart?
Speaker 3: That does work?
Speaker 2: Do that?
Speaker 6: And why do you care for clothes?
Speaker 2: I will?
Speaker 3: I have it, But I know people that have and
Speaker 3: it does actually work.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 5: Well, since both you and AJ have toured the world
Speaker 5: spend countless hours on the road, my guess is by
Speaker 5: now your travel experts.
Speaker 6: So I'm gonna name a handful.
Speaker 5: Of popular travel hacks and you can tell me if
Speaker 5: it's actually useful or completely useless, or if a different
Speaker 5: version of.
Speaker 6: That is gonna be better.
Speaker 2: All right, Okay, here's one.
Speaker 5: Roll your clothes instead of folding your clothes in your
Speaker 5: suitcase to save space.
Speaker 3: Yes, one hundred it works again.
Speaker 4: Two people that overpack for a two day trip, you
Speaker 4: bring more than you need. So and I'm a big
Speaker 4: T shirt and like sweatsky, but.
Speaker 6: Do you roll your clothes?
Speaker 3: I do roll my clothes.
Speaker 4: The only thing you can't roll, really is like hoodies
Speaker 4: or hats.
Speaker 3: Hats, Well, hats.
Speaker 4: Travel in their own bag, because my hats cannot yet
Speaker 4: creased or crinkled. Those are always in my carry on
Speaker 4: because they fit perfectly in there and they don't get squished.
Speaker 4: But yeah, you gotta roll. And you put your socks
Speaker 4: in your shoes, yes, so they don't crinkle.
Speaker 3: Yep, socks in the shoes.
Speaker 4: Now you even have more space because you don't realize
Speaker 4: how much your underwearing socks fills up the rest of
Speaker 4: your shoes.
Speaker 1: You can put your underwear and socks in those shoes.
Speaker 1: You roll your clothes, so it's rolling. Rolling your clothes
Speaker 1: definitely save space. But I do not because I'm a
Speaker 1: quick packer. Like I I throw things in, I do
Speaker 1: fold it.
Speaker 2: You're a late pack.
Speaker 1: But I'm a late packer. I'm a procrastinators.
Speaker 3: Packer hashtag team.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: But what's fun is because Michael is a stickler for rolling,
Speaker 1: So he'll go behind me and roll all my clothes
Speaker 1: so I know that it's gonna be done anyway, because
Speaker 1: it really like it really upsets him to see that
Speaker 1: I don't do that. And I because I'll steam clothes
Speaker 1: right when I get there. El steam, so I don't
Speaker 1: care if it's wrinkled, just throw it in.
Speaker 2: I'm good. But it bugs the hell out of them,
Speaker 2: so I know it's gonna be done anyway.
Speaker 1: So I yeah, I purposely pack horridly just so he
Speaker 1: goes by.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Mike, I'm sorry.
Speaker 5: Now now I want to ask you this. Now here's
Speaker 5: another travel hack that I've tried doing. This it's I
Speaker 5: hate it. Bring a travel pillow for comfort during naps
Speaker 5: on the plane or in the car. Are you walking
Speaker 5: around the airport with a travel pillow?
Speaker 3: I've never used one.
Speaker 2: No, I've never used one. I couldn't. I can't sleep
Speaker 2: on planes unless it lays flat.
Speaker 3: Sorry, yep, and I look honestly, I've gotten jaded.
Speaker 2: I mean, we have worked hard to get here.
Speaker 3: We did.
Speaker 4: Yes, we have paid our dues to afford a lay flat. Yes,
Speaker 4: but I will say some lay flats, if you're next
Speaker 4: to someone, it's a little like. I'm a window flier.
Speaker 4: I don't like dial But if you're in a lay
Speaker 4: flat where you're sharing, or basically you get there's Queen's
Speaker 4: you're like, yeah, so you're like right next to that person.
Speaker 2: Uh huh.
Speaker 4: It's unsettling because if I have to go pee, it's like,
Speaker 4: what's proper etiquette?
Speaker 3: Crotch your butt or do I you know, climb over this.
Speaker 2: Person the button? The face is more appropriate, It's.
Speaker 4: Definitely more appropriate, unless you know, unless the place you think.
Speaker 6: You think you should be faced away from them when
Speaker 6: you're climbing up.
Speaker 2: We're not gonna put the crutch.
Speaker 3: No, you don't want to put the crotch in the face.
Speaker 3: It's proper, proper plane etiquette.
Speaker 6: I may have been doing it incorrectly.
Speaker 4: I guess it just depends on the the amount of
Speaker 4: space you have to squeeze through.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I will hold it.
Speaker 1: Look, I was a window person, especially back in the
Speaker 1: day when we're started and you know the record label
Speaker 1: only fly flass coach. The only way that we could
Speaker 1: take a little cat nap was on the plane, and
Speaker 1: so I had the window just so.
Speaker 2: That I could rest my head against it.
Speaker 1: Now, in my older age, I can't hold a bladder
Speaker 1: so much, so I have to be in an eye
Speaker 1: because I don't want to interrupt someone.
Speaker 2: I'm so embarrassed to ask someone can I get there?
Speaker 2: Can you?
Speaker 3: Can you pause your movie that you're really into so
Speaker 3: that I can will take.
Speaker 2: It as long as I can.
Speaker 4: But but those neck pillows, if you really look at
Speaker 4: somebody with a neck pillow, this is as far back
Speaker 4: as their head's going, like, it's not actually like you're
Speaker 4: not so it's actually doing you a disservice.
Speaker 6: I think so too.
Speaker 4: Now, if I if I have one, for whatever reason,
Speaker 4: I don't I don't lock it around my neck like
Speaker 4: a collar.
Speaker 3: I put it here and then I lay like that.
Speaker 2: No, the best pillow is a hoodie.
Speaker 3: Actually it is.
Speaker 2: It'll mold to your head, hood or.
Speaker 3: Backpack back in the day, depending on what you have
Speaker 3: in it.
Speaker 1: You have to have a hoodie. I don't care what
Speaker 1: the weather is. Always travel with a hoodie.
Speaker 3: Because planes planes tend to be chill eating. Most of
Speaker 3: the time.
Speaker 2: It's either hot as hell or cold as well.
Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, I've got another one here, This one
Speaker 5: I for. This is more for road trips. Well, this
Speaker 5: is for road trips. Always bring an extra pair of
Speaker 5: shoes for impromptu hikes.
Speaker 6: Are you the type that pulls off to.
Speaker 5: The side of the road when you see a scenic
Speaker 5: something or other and go for a hike.
Speaker 1: I think I've been on one road trip where it's
Speaker 1: just a leisure you know, let's travel from San fran
Speaker 1: to LA and stop when we want to.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Other than that, I need to get to the place.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not doing a hike, although I do go hiking.
Speaker 4: I'm over a mountain bike guy. But I if I
Speaker 4: do see something cool that I want to get out
Speaker 4: and look at. Because I'm a sneaker head, I've got
Speaker 4: to be in the right shoes to want to go there.
Speaker 4: But when I'm traveling, I don't wear like the like
Speaker 4: the like nicer sneakers that I would normally wear out
Speaker 4: and about. I'll wear like my workout shoes or something
Speaker 4: that I don't care if it gets dirty, and I
Speaker 4: might go not on a hike, but I'll go, you know,
Speaker 4: take a picture at like a landmark or something.
Speaker 3: But we do live in California, where it gets hot
Speaker 3: as balls.
Speaker 4: I don't need to stop free pointless hike when I'm
Speaker 4: in an air conditioned.
Speaker 6: Travel hack.
Speaker 5: Are you the type of person to download podcasts or
Speaker 5: audio books ahead of time to keep things entertaining?
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, that is the one that's tell what are.
Speaker 6: You listening to? Can you remember any of the things
Speaker 6: that you're listening to?
