The 404 - Bridget Carey, E3's best game and Disney jaunts, Ep. 1,619

2015-06-19
welcome to the 404 show ladies and gentlemen it's Friday June nineteenth I Maya's Akhtar Jeff isn't in because he's on assignment at e3 if you want to hear his thoughts about it go check out the Beast cast at giantbomb.com he's been doing a bunch of great work over there today we've got Bridget Carey joining us we've also got my son silently sitting in a corner we'll see how silent hill be throughout the episode bridge Hayden hey good to be here so you just got back from a jaunt in Disney World right a jaunt this weekend John little gets away yeah oh I I'm a big Disney fan for anyone who was just turning into the first time on who i am and i haven't been in a while and a while being like a year and a half and so I was really jonesing for for another dose and I definitely got my dose so I am i'm gonna i'm in happy spirits so how does one take on disney world in a weekend from New York going all the way to Florida and then like coming back you were back on Monday so you were just gonna play two days right yeah i was back sunday night so i'm growing up in florida I'm done Disney quite a few times and so I'm not there looking to see everything at disney world there's obviously for parks you can't I mean you if you were to do all four pork parks in one day you're only seeing the top rides but the way I did it um you can I start my day 8 a.m. and ended at two in the morning did too barks they had a Star Wars weekend event which is pretty cool you have stormtroopers walking around chewy and and the gang and like I'm in walking around cuz they have that you know Star Wars ride star tours and so they kind of really build up have fans come people dress up I mean we're talking people it is like you know the high 80s it is really hot and people are in serious makeup and gowns and so I applaud them but also the most creative Star Wars t-shirts I've ever seen like things you just don't find online everyone comes out of the woodwork you know all over the world to come to this you know couple weekend event and to buy random merchandise in art and they just bring out their craziest Star Wars t-shirts like mashups like a cash but what was one of them you know like a like Darth Vader you know looks like he's pumping iron you know like like no just weird I can't even come Sam during cuz it's like so much is filling my head at once um I guess so much amazing I can't get it had my lips um but let's just say lots of fun puns I saw people two girls do princesses versions of Jedi's so you had the frozen you know Anna and and and the Rapunzel but they're Jedi versions people are just so creative it's so much fun to be there and then at night you just like closed the park at two in the morning and the next day you just kind of relax at the resort you just chill by the pool get in that Florida Sun and your rejuvenated I don't know if I need the Sun if on audio I don't know if you can hear how Brown I am but I'm pretty brown at this time nothing do with the tan just them oh I don't tan but I'm just saying like there's something about that Orlando air and that and that no special water that you smell on the rides it's just something you can't get anywhere else so I I'd seen a bunch of weird mashups when it comes to Disney I saw a I guess it's disney now Star Wars I saw a Hulk Hogan Matt like faced with a Darth Vader helmet mashup it was terrifying but awesome at the same time it just has like in a walrus mustache yeah that that helmet it says like I'm your father brother I don't know if you're into the pro wrestling anymore but it's the mash ups that were so much fun yes is just before you've all a lot of fun with it and especially with Disney nerd isms and put that together with Star Wars nerd isms oh it's just a whole bunch of nerd what is a frozen Jedi look like is it like the blue dress with like a brown robe it's Elsa but you know she's she just has more of a hoodie like like they made their own little interpretations of the dress so so it's more like the ELSA colors but she's got like a sash on them to hold her like you know you know weapons and it's just more more gloves involved and just looks a little more medieval perhaps mixed with a hoodie so let's switch topic to e3 I don't even covering if we've seen that update I'd imagine yeah yeah okay so I've been kind of keeping tabs of it I know there's no way on earth I'm going to do this justice as compared to Jeff so again go check out beast cast I've been paying attention though because this can't you mean you can't not pay attention this guy know what's going on did you see anything or at least read about anything interesting because the coolest thing I've seen so far this sounds lame i think that I'm gonna say this cuphead yes that's the only that I care about right now that is amazing okay so if you have eaten cuphead it looks like a 30s 40s style animation disney animation style when it comes to this game it looks accelerated yes that this is something in the style of the old Betty Boop cartoons Popeye and and obviously Disney Silly Symphonies is that whole era in the 30s where it was a little more wacky than it is today and that the trailer that's online for this thing is so wild it's demented almost and that's kind of its kind of us something you haven't seen before yes sounds like it's what the the two leads mug head and cuphead I think those are the leads and they make a deal with the devil or something make a deal with the devil and they're supposed to go ahead and do what the devil says for like the rest of the game I assume so once they get I guess dandy they're doing the devil's bidding it sounds like to win back their souls and in that going up against big bosses that are just you know these Wiggly armed crazy headed skeletons and mermaids and things that you would see in those old cartoons from from that era and you know when you that obviously the drawings themselves have been done before but you just haven't seen that in a video game before I think honestly when I'm watching III and all these trailers I'm finding boredom in the fact that everything is the end of the world I mean the POC ellipse is getting mundane I'm just tired of it and look I mean yeah okay it looks great okay another way to send that the world does so sad okay okay how many more zombies you're gonna get this is something refreshing it was a no man's sky that looked like it was a little depressing that Sony had that game where you go to these worlds and check it out like oh look at this one and now there are some giant robots trying to stop stop us because we're not supposed to be here but then I wanna saw cop head I was like this looks like fun actual phone my son was watching the trailer even though it's that's not advised for children and he was like maybe we can get that because he was his eyes are super widened look like a playable cartoon yes when I was a kid I tried out I think it's called dragon's lair you ever tried this game no it was a laser disc based arcade machine and it had great animated I footage it wasn't like you could really play it so much you pick like what should the carrier to do a or b because it's a laserdisc you just have to choose it looked beautifully thought it'd be a game that you could play as a cart but that didn't really happen this thing though looks just fantastic even the silliness when when the character just stops and they do that weird little knee jiggle you know I'm talking about they kind of floating up and down which is so indicative of really old cartoons it's kind of like oh look we're animated we can move you can't tell that I'm moving up and down in the chair but I am because that's what it's like it I really think that's really cool looking oh that's that that's what I do whenever it's actually the motion i do like whenever you're just waiting for something or feeling a little kooky I just I fallen I love those cartoons obviously I'm a Disney fan I'm a fan of the older stuff it's why I liked you know the the the mickey games that kind of brought out Oswald for a little bit because it kind of played off the weird black and white world of yesteryear so I'm looking forward to that although I think about a three is I here's see a lot of games that don't even come out this year it's it it almost takes away some of the fun of like hey look at this coming out sometime in the next two thousand sixteen when no date or all this VR talk and a no release date yet cop had at the end says coming in 1936 or 80 years after right so it'll be next year before we see that but VR was freaking huge it was everywhere Microsoft was all over this stuff they partnered with oculus and valve they're like yeah sure we'll discover this and we have hololens so they're like way way big into VR what do you think about VR from everything I'm reading I'm not impressed and I'm kind of bored at this point they need to stop talking about unless they're going to show something at this point for example reading about the experience on hololens that's the one we're like 3d images kind of float in the room around you they're not allowing any photo or video being taken of the experience which shows you how they're not ready yet or they're just trying to build a pipe but when i read with scott stein writes about it and his experience is that it's it's still a little weird wing with the peripheral vision it you have to be straight on looking although it's cool in concept all the time you see all this lots of potential here types of stories but the price will probably be so high that it'll be a great add-on for a moment in a game but will it be something that you always want to have on for you get dizzy or you know will you really want to play an entire game that way or will be a very expensive accessory for one level hollow lens is supposed to be a self-contained computer's not supposed to necessarily need to be an accessory to something else so it's got to be expensive I'm really curious by the battery life like how long can that things stay on your head and stay cool first of all that's gotta be tons of processing power when you're moving your head around and there's a virtual giant screen on one side or you're playing effectively minecraft the shirt off minecraft and I could see that being awesome especially because I have a tiny apartment and a child who likes toys I'm like wow virtual toys now that's a way to go yeah no this does seem fun for what it can do and imagine the plop changes playtime exactly you can think about things differently things are in the room with you your imagination can have some fun with that I can see that that being used in different types of storytelling but I'm tired of waiting in here and all this hype I'm and and I just don't think that people are going to probably dish out five hundred dollars or more for something like this because I'm glad there were I guess I'm glad they're working on the technology thanks for the future the future that won't be here and realistic for another four more years try out cnet's this is not meant to be a plug but like I tried this out we had seen that had this be are virtually come to e3 experience shot with this awesome camera ashley Esqueda was on there and it gave me kind of a tour and did you try that actually what made it neat and how they filmed this is that you had to compute at to turn your head you had to get involved because you had Ashley on your right and and and and and you had to turn around it to like see everyone who's talking because they're not all in right in front of you it thought that was pretty creative i will say yeah we're with the galaxy gear VR and I think cardboard and so I tried it with gear and was the first time I've ever actually used it which is really weird considering it's like usually about 10 feet from me I just never bothered like hey I want to try that out and grab well isn't that the problem with all this how you gonna get people they interested in it if we're sitting here with all the tech around cats miners going around he's like hey does anybody want to try this and I'm like okay I'll do it so put this it's very clunky to put on just in general got put this like helmet like kind of thing on they got putting on a different pair of headphones so you have this weird crisscrossing going on so it's definitely not elegant in putting on this this experience but once you're in it and just looking around it's really bizarre because you're sitting in a chair and your first instinct is kind of like just sit still and that's not what they want you to do so in the video it's really good because you look around you look there's Nintendo you high up they took advantage of a lot of the different perspectives you'd get and I thought it was really cool and then I let my boy try it out so he was in the office and they put it on him and he's like dad where are you because you completely shut out from the outside world there's no like augmented layer over what's going on it's completely closed off I thought like I have set the bar too high he's only it's gonna be five in a week or two but like he's not he's like we can do that again I'm like I don't know really because that phone was getting really hot is the the it's killing the battery the note that's what yeah that's had so and there's also a the bit of screen door effect because the resolution on the screen isn't as high so it's kind of cool it's really close to cool but like I can't see spending you know what whatever the oculus rifts gonna cost like 1,500 bucks that I think is the rumored number or whatever computer you need to have that on the side it has to be pretty beefy to handle that too seems like it's a really neat kind of thing we're not like hey I got this idea I'm gonna spend either $2,000 an awesome TV or i can get a virtual cinema on my face right you know where this is going to start to like take off it is with kids and it's with things like mattel and how they're working with Google cardboard in that new type of view master toy where you could put mom and dad's phone inside and get that quick hit of a 3d moment but it's not strapped to your head you have to hold it up just like that old red viewmont master a little I guess it's called view masters right yeah so you got to hold it up and you dip in and you dip out and it's good for educational moments and then that'll get the next generation really thinking about it maybe more so but for now yeah making that huge investment and just sitting and watching a whole movie that way or having a long-term experience that way it's a little expensive yeah dan graziano was telling me about the virtual cinemas experience we get to see a giant movie but then he looks down and he has no body freaked him out and it's small things like that you don't even think about oh yeah I have a hand that should should appear if I wave it to the right it's gone you look down there's no body and there's nobody else in the theater with you so do you need to populate that well the first time I used an oculus was of course they threw at me a scary zombie game and when it started to eat my face the first thing I wanted to do was you know punch it so I start kicking and punching and yeah that next step is getting our bodies involved and making it feel like we're there because your mind was already starting to think that way what else came out with Microsoft BR we had Sony showing off very little there's a couple of remade games i think final fantasy 7 is that the dude i don't know i think it was seven i think it was like the yeah a lot of nostalgia is being played up more more starfox more final fantasy Nintendo's in a holding pattern they're like yeah we have a new console coming out next year so your puppets and I'm making that up to did you see the puppets I I did see a little bit of the puppet action I'm fan of puppets I think it was creative better than like you know staring at some some person at a suit talking go ahead give me give me puppets so Nintendo didn't have a live actual press conference and I'm being shown seen a shown right now that my son failed at a level at Star Wars angry birds or angry birds star wars sorry buddy I can't fix that right now but anyway there were these awesome puppets of Mario's creator and the president of Nintendo America and the president of Nintendo Japan and there's three puppets and they're walking around and they slowly start taking on these animal like characteristics one starts looking more like a fox and then eventually to pull out star fox and you've got do a barrel roll and that's pretty much the highlight I want to do an entire cnet show as Bridget the muppet I think I think that I think I want to take that idea and which let's let's do it let's do the 44 Muppet style you know that's how the YouTube video should be and we do this this actually does come out on youtube we do audio only maybe that's how we do it is that we just have puppet version you can make your own Muppet they have this thing at where is it the toy store the really big one um fio yeah that's going down I know but they're moving it but you can make your own Jim Henson Muppet I mean it's kind of expensive but you can make your own I think I might have to do that we'll have to have 44 Muppets made and do this Muppet style no it's odd to actually know to puppet makers or sort of know to puppet makers that's amazing can can we have brunch I wanted okay when you go to Atlanta I'll have an introduction done we're gonna take a quick break we have sponsors today so let's take a quick break and when we come back read cheeseburgers mmm all right guys it's time to talk about that dreaded awful place called the post office you know it's becoming a thing of the past thanks to stamps com so you already know that going into the post office is just a pain right you got to find some parking you gotta drive back from there you've got to deal with all kinds of fun people who you have no idea what they're going to do were they going to buy 20 to 30 stamps are they going to discuss their life story with the clerk who knows what's going on but here's what you probably didn't know you're probably paying more for

thinking about puppets get that out of your head unless it's a puppet cheese burger burger king there's news again by Burger King they've done a black hamburger before now they've done it a bread cheese burger it's called the aqha burger acha means right in Japan I didn't know that maybe it's um pronouncing that wrong the cheeseburgers got a red cheese a red bun red tomatoes red sauce that BK Japan calls angry sauce all caps must be spicy it's supposed to be like red chilies goes on sale July third you can get a chicken version for about 540 n or the samurai beef at 690 n that's about four or five bucks you need to test this in America we would eat this up red yes I'll tell you what in the past that black one what does it do subconsciously you start thinking that thing is rotten and you don't want to eat it there are some colors you don't want to eat you don't want to eat blue things that's why blue eminem's are kind of rare there are no blue real foods except for blueberries um so there's some things in your mind that you don't think our appetizing but red there's plenty of red foods we should do it everyone loves red red things oh I would love to I would love to eat this now I'll tell you what is gross you know those like green milk shakes I can't get myself to do that I know it's just food coloring McDonald's you're looking at me strange I know I'm like why would the green milkshake which is in a big big not see-through container bother you well I'm just saying a green hamburger would look a little weird but read this delicious let's do it let's do it here let's get creative let's have a little fun I'm just saying I think I think Japan to some crazy things with their food this might be the one thing we would do to we write about it we write about that means people are interested that means bring it over here let us try it I think this is freakish I can't believe you're so excited about you're right about the red food concept that we do meet isn't colored know that looks meat like doesn't the red cheese throw you off a little bit that's kind of gross looking like it looks like somebody had taken a piece of red plastic put it on top of a burger and this is by the way we're looking to the press images what you know are the ones done by food stylists right so I want you to imagine I wouldn't imagine a cheeseburger that has been squashed and it's read though it's just kind of you know what because I'm thinking I've seen cheese have read elements and trying to think of like red wax around yeah you're like like it's kind of you eating the wax instead he's just take the wax off the bells I'm trying to think of like why I'm not a reasons why I'm not appalled by this and maybe maybe it just meant to be everybody no you're right i don't think it's not appalling the black one looks burnt and it looks like something's wrong like we're trying to go no that's like dirt you don't to eat that if it's Browns if it's brown drink it down if it's black send it back if it's red isn't go ahead I think is that guy apparently that's the way to go with bread it's you know what maybe you've convinced me that it's not such a bad idea it doesn't look so bad but what kind of like we're gonna see are we ever gonna see these gimmicks out here we have like Taco Bell just goes all out right now chicken fries it's kind of a gimmick to me that I can't I can't do it I can't do wrong with chicken fries compared to chicken fingers I don't know I think they're just too too too much I don't know I don't know I just rather have the chicken nuggets I'm a chicken noise wait a second it's like not chicken McNuggets you mean regular chicken nuggets yeah bruh I don't know what something about the size of them seems more advertising than the sticks but I don't know if what am I talking about i'm clearly i clearly have issues of em being picky over something that's actually just just different shaped breaded chicken over a color it's just tubular chicken right yes I'm attracted to weird things on menus sometimes like you know different color I'm going to add a visual of you like holding up a weird menu and just face gonna smack right into a trap wait wait when you're at a restaurant and you see something like snake on the menu or alligator are you the kind of person who goes you never or do you want to try because it's different I don't mind trying it just depends on the price I'm like isn't am I gonna commit to this and how big is this can I try an appetizer version because that's fine but if I have to commit to this is my entree and I'm like I gotta eat this in this is my actual dinner I'm gonna have to commit to it I don't know if I can do it yeah there is one thing that I can't just stand and that's ice cream that looks rainbow colored because I can imagine it's like bubblegum flavored or something I just can't like they always had that Superman you know I scream sometimes where it's like a total rainbow then it's too much color then it's too much for me but and I haven't tried that maybe that'll be my next thing I have to try before I have my red burger the actual ice cream not not like they like nothing i sees or something no i mean like when you go to like a haagen dazs or ben jerry's i know there's always that one tub that's like why are you a rainbow what flavor are you I don't want to try you you everyone heinz tried out there's weird like like this quirky catch up that they had a blue one that a purple lime green yeah and none of those did well because they were like disgusting looking because people you know think yeah like maybe that's a different flavor I guess the green one look like relish look like not I didn't do I've had green catch up though I don't think if face me yeah what do you mean hitting bays you I don't know it I was okay with it may be big because I yeah the relish I'm really analyzing now my my food issues you're really bringing up some things that's why I'm pausing a little bit I like that you actually thought this through entirely all I thought was like knee-jerk it's red that's weird you're like no wait a min red is the natural color and that's what people eat it's like um that's what I used to think about of wraps when I like when I was a little kid I'm like why are there green wraps what does that mean I don't understand its oh ok that's oh the red ones are tomato okay that's neat you know people have a thing with candies that they like read more than other colors or like red Eminem's more but then they're all the same flavor that's weird to me only the claim that I can taste the difference between red 40 and yellow whatever number it is that's weird to me but when it comes to starbursts and stuff like that I only like the citrusy ones I'm the weird one I never eat the red I always like the yellow you like the yellow ones that's the nobody like to go that's why I'm put on this earth to eat all the yellow candies you're no you aren't that you and the rest of society are casting aside unfairly for the karmic balance of the universe Bridget Carey exists bless you all turned in east and basically an old lady who likes lemon candies what can I say is that why you also like butterscotch is somewhere all the time and your bag of the showing up yet I did buy some really they're kind of nice when you're through your throat's a little sore I don't know where you even get those little candies but you know where to get them to store you okay all right cool let's talk about ketchup and porn because why not Heinz you know the ketchup maker they're in trouble because of a QR code they had on a bottle of ketchup so you know if you've ever looked at a bottle of ketchup at least Heinz one you might see a QR code and the thing is they were running a contest for two years 2012 2014 you'd scan the QR code and you could design your own label so I think either was a contest or you get to actually make your own so in Germany this guy scan the QR code on the bottle and instead of being taken to a hindsight he was taken to a hardcore porn site owned by fun Dorado now this is in Germany right this isn't here like I can't go at the store and get this you know I don't I didn't check they're gonna find that part out I think it's in Germany is this QR code you know region-specific or not because I would think that if it was just a website it would just resolve whatever area you were in and go ahead right so I don't know the answer that this this is important lesson that you never know what you're gonna get with the mysteries the mysteries of the QR code oh my gosh yeah so this is terrible so Heinz they kind of let the registration slip that was part of the problem so it's it's a nasty ol bottle of ketchup that God's can the contest was over kontes been over ketchups minute like it was made in 20 to 14 or so and basically it's been sitting around for a while so the guy just bought it in the store so he Daniel Correll is his name just catch a blast that it was over I would take a while it's only what June it lasts a year so that means that that within the year they they must've let it expire really quickly well maybe Daniel bought it at a discount place okay we don't know we know what Daniel did no offense Daniel maybe you bought it from a store that was they were just keeping this ketchup it was on clearance you're like cool six months I can be done catch up with like two days then you deserve tonight this horrible surprise or maybe wonderful surprise it depends when he looks so hanns-g signs Heinz is trying to figure out what to do with it so they decided that they will let Corral create his own label and send him a free bottle printed with his design do you think that's enough forum do you think that's what he should I would design a bottle that that has some implications of what you saw on the point site he's mildly offended if you have the power to design a bottle after something like that happens to you I'd make it definitely titillating oh it's just the label he's designing not the actual bottle shape we've got like you got some old ideas by mold Emmett like you know plastic molds not like of the horrible not not not a green ketchup right not a green yeah he can't do that and here's the fun thing bun Dorado offer him a one-year subscription to fun Dorado oh jeez well he wins on all counts here he gets one free year of porn he gets one customized bottle of ketchup and what did he have to lose here all kinds of condiments related jokes you're coming into my head we won't touch those at all so let's talk about drinking as I likes to drink I saw this Kickstarter we had it on cnet it was something called partying and it makes making cocktails as easy as those cake up things for coffee yeah so the machine would have you would have provide the alcohol so be gin vodka tequila and the fourth one rum and what these guys actually give you these little packets now the packets aren't little flavored packets of powder or anything they're actually the liquid based ingredients that you'd have for cocktails so like you could pop them open and probably just shoot them back like it it's not missing water or anything or well you they would be well the actual pods are not alcoholic you provide the alcohol okay so it's basically every other ingredient for this so the machine looks like a weird like scientific k-cup meets some kind of a beaker kind of system there and what left you do is you put in it looks like a coffee maker yeah pretty much you put it in and it actually can read the barcode to tell you oh by the way when you're making a cosmopolitan so the machine itself will take the right amount of alcohol mix it in with the pod and just dispense it into whatever container you want so you have to like pour in your vodka or and then what is the pod do okay so you have four containers surrounding the actual machine so you've got the machine and just think of a k-cup machine so on the left and right you've got two separate containers holding gin vodka tequila and rum so what it does is it just pulls the actual alcohol out of the appropriate bin okay gotcha and so all right so then but I don't get the pod part still so right it's gonna suck up whatever the for alcohol is already like loaded it up with but was the pods for flavoring like that give you the strawberry flavor or something that's like a sex on the beach here vodka so you it'll take the vodka from your own stash there but in the pod you have peach schnapps cranberry juice and pineapple juice you have to go out and buy those actual things you'll have just the right amount so you just pop it in make you one drink but the pods themselves are they alcoholic I'm appear to be okay see that's how they get around who they sell it to in the right and the rights to sell it you on your own have to do the the main containers okay all right following I kind of like this thing because I mean it's not going to taste as good well they claim that it's supposed to because they had like a they have a bunch of research involved and a mixologist who helped make make the pods she claims that the drinks will be as if she made them now there's no actual like credentials to her in the Kickstarter video saying she's a world-renowned mixologist or mildly popular or if she even works anywhere as a mixologist it just says that she is a mixologist and these are the drink that she'd make for you all right well that is kind of interesting but I you know I have heard that others are kind of making this um I I mean I think the cake up folks are even looking into this from from things I've read I would you know so I guess now you're picky guests can pick their own concoctions based on instead of just going with it ever you have you can be like all right do you want this do you want that and they can do their own its kind of it seems novelty fun for a party but there's something about mixing your own drinks it's kind of fun too I don't know it might be pretty expensive I'm saying considering just the novelty factor it's 250 bucks if you get as a Kickstarter and after Kickstarter something costs four hundred dollars at that point you could probably hire a bartender for the day for the night yeah we're just more impressive and you'll get your little umbrellas too on the moon it is gonna taste like a mixologist made it because you have a bartender with you release that one night but I think it's an interesting idea I could see this kind of thing taking off I can see it like a hotels or something like you to pay couple bucks like oh come on here you go or you have like the most inept bartender somewhere like okay I don't want to make the drink I'll just go to the Machine and then I'll bring you your martini cuz I don't know anything just imagine just like imagine some kid who knows nothing going I'll be right back and then here's your martini sir you like it thanks kid this isn't bad it tastes like a machine made it and we're losing the art form there's an art to this it's all machines are gonna be doing everything including giddiness drunk for their eventual takeover well there are those wine machines they just dispense one class at a time i'm looking forward to win the kind of SodaStream type bubble you know the carbonating machines can put can do that with alcohol because they're working with that right now it's only water for sodastream but they'll be able to reef is your wine I mean now that is something I paper because I can do water I could do juice and then I can reef is my wine and keep the party going on that note we're gonna take another break we get another sponsor we'll be right back and don't go away so if you already have a car there's a good chance you can make some extra money on it without even selling the thing we all know that cars values depreciate like crazy you take it off the lot it loses ten percent over a year it loses twenty percent of its value now how could you make some extra money but you don't have to even figure that out RelayRides hasn't all figured out for you because RelayRides is a peer-to-peer car rental company it's part of that sharing economy you've heard about kind of like Airbnb and uber what you get to do is rent out your car on RelayRides and earn as much as one thousand dollars per month so

reddit because I actually bothered to put up a show thread saying Bridget Carey is going to be on what do you want to ask her what's going on it says send in your questions about tech or Disney or Florida or a fourth thing anyone have questions for me or now they did actually so let's ask you this kmac wrote in and wrote which Disney princess does bridget most associate with well I've been told I look a lot like Rapunzel from the recent movie hmm because you know just kind of like fish facially um this is it's a really personally tough question because at times you know i'm i'm the spirit of aerial or maybe I look more like sleepy beauty I actually walk around the park with us the beauty crown it's kind of amazing because everyone has to bow to you when they work there o is new world yeah unlike central or like madison square park which park are you going to wearing a crown and are they doing that it's a thing now no actually you probably go to know it even look twice right I was like how do you bow that's pretty impressive um but how that that is tough because it depends on your mood everyone has a different oh but I'm gonna say at least in terms of dressing up I have dressed up as Aurora and I love I love the little mermaid I love our aerial and I think my next one I have to dress up as is tangled is Rapunzel which one is Aurora on sleeping beauty that's her name yes or she also went by Briar Rose when she was you know not knowing she was a princess hiding in the forest when Prince Philip came by I didn't know they had names I don't know why probably cuz I haven't bothered to watch him again it's the princes that that sometimes don't have names you know it's the princes who who kind of get you know in the old ones you know like Snow White was just prince and then there's Prince Charming which is Cinderella and then later on they started actually with though names so they were just as interchangeable as anybody else they're like II yeah you you you seem you're the Prince right oh yeah you're still the Prince of whatever actually if you ever read the comics the fable comics they actually play off that that that there's just one player prince who got around and she did it all and he was just the prince and it was pretty funny stuff uh another question from Mary pop in a cap is the 60th anniversary all hype oh my disney land I have never been to Disneyland and that was one thing on my list it's my list to go to all the worlds I grown up in Florida I love disney world the most so I know Disneyland's doing this big 60th thing they got like a bunch of they like make it all sparkly extra on the castle and I got so much for things you can buy I have his little extra merchandise so I really can't answer about the hype or not cuz I haven't been there I went to went to Florida the coolest thing about Flores anniversary while back as they made the castle giant cake do you remember Hank I remember that was a giant like like almost bounce house type balloon around the whole thing it's amazing what they can do to that park and just turn it around so like you ever noticed oh by the way that's off-limits near scaffolding up for like two years if you walk around New York City like how long's the scaffolding Mia been up and then when it disappears you're really confused yeah but out in Disney World's like it's up and done within a couple minutes well actually right now they're they're adding they're expanding the castle in Florida and what they're doing is adding extra tower pillars around it and to hide it they're scaffolding so to speak their little wall is a painted-on tree that looks like other trees so with the quick glance it's not you know harsh to the eyes I think what's most amusing of Florida is that they built extra castles in the past year or two so now you walk around you don't just see Cinderella's castle but you see bells castle you see the tower from Rapunzel depending on where you're looking and you see aerials cuz it's so magically making me all worked up Newcastle be under the sea Prince Eric's like castle okay I guess now I've never seen little mermaid you know that I've never seen it it's it's it's it's one of the classics I heard it doesn't make any sense though yeah like she gives up her power of speech just did tell you listen she's 16 and she got this big bossy lady you know kind of kind of working her magic and kind of she's very convincing alright saying that you you know you got your body language you can work a girl you can get your true love you know do it and you know your six-year making the best decisions when you're only advice is coming from a little flounder fish in some crab you know so yeah she think she knows it all sounds like because his teenager involved okay yeah how old's the Princeton Oh probably not 16 oh boy that's a little bit more I don't know I don't know if they ever say I mean she actually says in her song you know she at 16 in meta de i mean i'll have the princesses are a little young you know this year's like dog years do you age faster as if i guess a more person excuse me well no exposure to the Sun she probably had great skin oh it was really really like pruney yeah really really gross I don't know if that's gonna work uh I'm gonna have to watch this movie so you have knowledge about this I don't know when people have time to do all this stuff though so I understand well you you you have you have you have a kid you this is the time to like get into all the Disney movies but not look dorky that you're doing it on your own you're really just doing it to it to white in his world to to uh you know it's good for boys to watch princess movies I'd say it's not it's more like I'm not a big fan of musicals which is a problem like oh oh but right but but alan menken who has done all the best musicals beauty the beast little mermaid he's the one who was called back in to do the enchanted movie have you seen that it parodies all of them i have not i mean it is the that is the best music for disney air on this argument the other day with like what one disney movie which you showed us someone who's never seen a disney movie and you have to do what one of the one of the great musicals like Beauty and the Beast to really represent it for the first time person I think compared to maybe some of the older ones sorry getting so deep can it hold podcast on that don't worry there's no more that there's still more Disney questions elvia even gotten to Al viateur a rigid Disney just released an oculus app that lets you walk around and explore any world in any of their movies but you have to listen to let it go over and over again would you do it yeah it's not a problem edit Oh which move your roles will you visit first I actually spent some time at the park looking at the animation cells this time of all the artwork that they do in these movies it's so M amazing the time that they spent on getting the world's right I think I mean you have your fantasy choices like the little mermaid in the world that they created it or there or you have like all the streets and towns that they built with every brick of like Beauty and the Beast I think I'd have to go oh that's hard I think I think they're so there's so much beauty in all the worlds but um i would i would want to walk around the streets with Belle and do the whole bum good and get some you know like like the whole little town in the morning when they wake up I think that'd be cute what about it is wrong a rubber rabbit count at all not your rabbit yeah I mean technically yes it's gonna toontown the head of the night were fine that's brilliant I want to go to toontown oh man let's do it did you get everybody from egg every world and like I remember that was a cross-licensing nightmare they're like Bugs Bunny's gonna be the same cartoonist Mickey Mouse I love that movie let's do it and although you got to be careful you know you don't want a piano falling on your head but well it's a virtual thing so even if you die I guess you'd respond somewhere else series right you have to respawn at some point oh let's do it yeah toontown i think was coming in to Disney World at some point when I was like visiting as a kid and I'm like wonder what that's gonna be like I really want to see this really want to see this really wanna see this but yeah that would be where I would go but let it let it go over and over again I have nieces and I've heard that song over and over and over and over again think you you can condition yourself to to be okay not go crazy I think maybe I've listened to so many musicals in my life that I'm okay and I can handle it I can take it I've been in when you're in line for something like a Peter Pan ride over and over and over again the worst one it's a small world being in that line can you survive that I mean nowadays a totally different you have earbuds in you can like have giant headphones on well you know what the workers I think they make them shipped in different places so they don't personally go go cuckoo by just listening to it over over again I think they like shift how they know they're having your party how many your party I think those folks have to move around so they don't go bonkers we had to send a question just flying donkey 04 just gave us a link and it's to a CNN article right-handed or left-handed kangaroos actually have a preference saying that a lot of kangaroos had left handed so I guess he wants this or she wants us to discuss this one did you think the Kangaroos had a reference on on what pan to go with and to does this surprise you I've seen the boxing kangaroos I mean gosh they seem like South paws to you well hey that that is very funny I gotta get I can't beat that I can't beat that that one you win I'm sorry I was laughing at that myself Oh Mike that was not intentional but it was there but yeah apparently kangaroos have a preference will have links to this and I actually put links at the blog post have you seen that like really beefy kangaroo on on YouTube that's kind of went viral well it looks like the Hulk yeah yeah I've seen that thing yeah that's frightening he's cool you want to hang out with them yeah that's good and lastly flying donkey 04 also sent this in since Jeff is away tell us something about Jeff something that Jeff doesn't want us to know I don't know him that well that I don't know his secrets I don't know what do you know about him what I know about him is that he's over eight feet tall I know if the weird thing is there's a lot of forced perspective done when it comes to Jeff and everyone thinks he's like a normal height person and like he's just this kind of low-key guy he's eight feet tall fires lightning out of his eyes his hair is as red as a fire like like the Sun with a perfect kind of filter it's true it's very true if you hear it on the internet unless picture it's got to be true and that's what you're hearing it here first if you never heard this and if you just come in to see in that office you can't help it like stare at Jeff cuz he's just there just gigantic Jeff that's what we call him on the office gigantic Jeff that's what he's on the Beast cast it's named after him one of these days you know one thing about Jeff is that I can't get him I can't tempt him to eat all the terrible food I bring into the office or any snacks he has he has a willpower of a champion you brought in like goofy taffy didn't you I bring in goofy tat well he well he was gone that this week but I mean like I'll read full power how ordering pizza or whatever it is there's cookies there's doughnuts there's always something he has he has the willpower I don't know how of a lantern that's why since
