1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: You know how the famous saying goes New Year, who diss?

2
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: We promised to bring that same clueless attitude into our

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: first What's on your Mind? Of twenty twenty four? We're

4
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: gonna start things off with Brooke like we always do.

5
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: Hey Brooks, what's on your mind?

6
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 2: My god?

7
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 3: Okay, First, it is so good to be back in

8
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:23,280
Speaker 3: our brand new studio. I just it is so beautiful.

9
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 3: If you haven't seen it, go to our socials or come.

10
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: Into the studio.

11
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

12
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 3: Sure. But over the break, we got a chance to

13
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 3: travel to Portugal.

14
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 2: You mean you and your family?

15
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 3: Yeah? Got us? Yeah, And I gotta say the strangest

16
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 3: experience of my life was seeing Portuguese Santa Claus. It

17
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 3: was like being on an acid trip. Well and I've

18
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 3: never been on an acid trip, but this is what

19
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 3: I imagine it to be.

20
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 1: How is Portuguese Santa different than San Over?

21
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 3: First, we go wait in line and behind the door

22
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 3: where Santa is we can't see, but we keep hearing

23
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 3: all this applause pond like large groups of people are plotted.

24
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 3: I guess. So we're like, you know, talking like what

25
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 3: is this gonna be? So finally, a large Portuguese sparkly

26
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 3: Elf opens the door right and lets twenty of us

27
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 3: in to a pitch black room filled with black lights.

28
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 3: Wait where, like there's like, oh my god, yes, yeah,

29
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 3: there's like spray painted knee on Santa on the wall.

30
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: Does Santa have his shirt?

31
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,839
Speaker 3: And he's not even in there. All that's in there

32
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,759
Speaker 3: is the two elves. So we proceed for the next

33
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 3: twenty five minutes to play some sort of Simon says

34
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 3: where we're pointing to our hair and our bellies.

35
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 4: We don't really know.

36
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 3: We're just kind of trying to follow the same.

37
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 4: Movements and then when you get it wrong, they sing

38
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 4: a song and they clap it around in a circle

39
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 4: and celebrate how stupid you are. After twenty five minutes

40
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 4: of this, finally the door opens, so we go into

41
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 4: the room and there is the skinniest Santa you've ever seen.

42
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 3: Well, I just think Europeans, so maybe a better Mediterranean,

43
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: you know, And we just do a couple of thumbs

44
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 3: up photos.

45
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 4: It's like thumbs up and then.

46
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 3: We're ushered out and both kids look at me and

47
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 3: they're just like shock in their face. They're like, we

48
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 3: didn't like that.

49
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 2: It is not like the typical so.

50
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 3: Just you know, different culture, different vibes. That's cool.

51
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: J what's on your mind?

52
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 2: Well, you guys didn't know. I went to Disneyland overbreak

53
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 2: and it was amazing. Everything was awesome except for one thing.

54
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 2: I was in Tunetown. Oh amazing. So I'm buying Mickey

55
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 2: ears at a shop. Done after my purchase, I'm fidgeting

56
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: with them, trying to put them on, and I look

57
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 2: and I see an exit sign. Well, all of a sudden,

58
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 2: I look up and I'm in a long hallway. No no,

59
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, I'm not supposed to be here. And

60
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 2: then I I turned back around just to open the

61
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 2: door behind me that I just went in, and there's

62
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: a sign that says check your costumes, and I'm like,

63
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 2: oh no, I'm in an employee hallway. And then I

64
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 2: realized that there's a code on the panel on the inside. Well,

65
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 2: I can't just open the door again. So then I

66
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 2: start wandering down his hallway and it is long, and

67
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 2: their signs like remember the Magic, and I'm just freaking

68
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 2: out because there's just door after door and it's like

69
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 2: real life Alice in Wonderland.

70
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 3: What color is it? A video?

71
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: I didn't want to I'm scared. I gout of it,

72
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 2: but I almost call the police because I was like,

73
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 2: what do I do? Like, I'm trapped at Disneyland in

74
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 2: a long, gray hallway. I can't even if I thought

75
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 2: about testing doors, but even if one opens, I don't

76
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 2: know what ride I'm behind. I'm not gonna walk in,

77
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, I'm like a character on

78
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 2: a ride. Like so I start to freak out. I'm like,

79
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 2: when do I call the police? And then eventually this

80
00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 2: teenager walks in an employee yeahs there, and I'm like, home, Oh,

81
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 2: I got help me. I'm lost and I'm scared and

82
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: I'm trapped. I don't know where I am. You're a

83
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 2: grown man. I really was scared.

84
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 3: Safe place brings out the child and all of us.

85
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: So she does what she should do, and like I'm

86
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 2: a child. She's like, okay, let's calm down, take a breath.

87
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 2: Where were now?

88
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: Where's your mommy?

89
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 2: And dash? She literally said, She goes where's your family?

90
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 2: And I'm like I'm all alone. She's like, it's okay,

91
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 2: where were you? And I was like, I was buying

92
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 2: the years and two down and I just wanted to

93
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 2: go back to she's like okay, and then she grabs

94
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 2: my hand and she's like, let's get you to Tune Town.

95
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 2: She held, she puts in the code, gets me back in,

96
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 2: and everything was fine.

97
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: Budge made it out. Okay, yeah, alexis what's been on

98
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 1: your mind?

99
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 5: I'm going to add onto the vacation stories. And I

100
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 5: went to Italy, but it wasn't exactly what I expected. Okay,

101
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 5: what do you expect? Well, I knew their coffee was good,

102
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 5: I heard, but like the issue is they just have

103
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 5: like one shot of espresso, you know, at the counter,

104
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 5: and like that's not going to do it for me.

105
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,359
Speaker 5: I want to ice and I need four shots and

106
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 5: they don't do that. So I ended up going to

107
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 5: Starbucks a lot.

108
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 3: They don't even have ice.

109
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: Go to Starbucks in Italy exactly.

110
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 5: Then I had to hide my cup walking around because

111
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 5: it was like pretty embarrassing nobody had it. And then

112
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 5: I love the croissants, but I got tired of them,

113
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 5: so I did find myself really craving a sausage biscuit

114
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 5: and I had to find a McDonald's, which I did

115
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 5: eat in Italy.

116
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 3: You just went to Italy to experience the United States.

117
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, it is a you know, and then it's like

118
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 5: people talk up the big like things there, like the Colisseum.

119
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 4: I went to Okay, yeah, okay, and.

120
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 5: I took photos, but not of the broken rocks in

121
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 5: front of me. I took them. There was a cat

122
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 5: loose in the coliseum area, and yeah, it was way

123
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 5: more exciting than all the history around me. I just

124
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 5: followed this cat around the Colisseum and like with that,

125
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 5: that is it great? Not really, I mean, but that

126
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 5: made it worth it. I just want to give some

127
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 5: honesty to people before they go to Italy, so you

128
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 5: know what to expect.

129
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 3: Jeffrey, what's on your mind.

130
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: I went to the nether Leans for our holiday break.

131
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: It's a little intimidating being around the people of the

132
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:11,159
Speaker 1: Netherlands because they're all very tall, very fit, very naturally

133
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: good looking. Yeah, the whole city bikes.

134
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 3: Everywhere, so like five languages.

135
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, educated. But the most intimidating part of it

136
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 1: was when I went to a bathroom at one of

137
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: the local pubs. No one was in the stalls there.

138
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: That's not where I'm going with it. I'm not intimidated

139
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 1: by that. The the journals in the Netherlands are like

140
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: a foot taller than they are than in America.

141
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 3: Oh is it like can you reach?

142
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: You see? In order in order to get my business done,

143
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: I had to take a step back and coast guarden that.

144
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 1: But you know, the coast guard has those like boats

145
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: the spray water up onto. They're not like flat across.

146
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: It's like an upwards arc, like a Steph Curry three

147
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,239
Speaker 1: pointer from Downtown.

148
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 2: Splash Brothers.

149
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: So it was a challenge. Got the job done, and

150
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: I am a better person for having visited the nether world.

151
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 2: This is like a postical.

152
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 3: Course something like I feel for whoever had to clean

153
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 3: that bathroom message, Oh my god.

154
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: Playing seven eight, five nine two, tell us what's been

155
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: on your mind? It's Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.

156
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 3: Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
