I feel like National Parents and Teachers Day
is going to throw up some red flags
because you can't let them learn
in school because they're going to learn
all that devil shit.
It's about parent-teacher organizations.
Parents as parent-teacher organizations.
I guess we need good people in them
so I'm going to withdraw my objection.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't think it's to be like, hey man, you know what these teachers are telling your kids?
Show them a good book every night.
The King James Edition.
That's right.
Or like one of those ads that's like, dad, look it up.

Chalkboard erasers for some reason
That was too smushy
Yeah just too smushy We've all tried it haven't we folks Walking on chalkboard erasers for some reason. That was the vibe he was given. Yeah, just too smushy.
We've all tried it.
Haven't we, folks, walking on chalkboard erasers for some reason?
I actually feel like I have a memory of trying to do that for some reason.
Yeah.
Why do I have that memory?
Doesn't make any sense.
But that was a good one that I thought I had done last week.
But now in retrospect, I don't think I did.
Did you?
You nailed it.
No, I think you just nailed it right there. And if and if i did hey it's called coming back around again anyway shout out
steeman chuck steeman chuck did i say who mine was lacaroni anyways we are thrilled miles to be
joined in our third seat yes by an actress improviser old friend podcast host who you've
heard on uh comedy bang bang spontaneous nation and seen on shows like Fresh Off the Boat, New Girl, Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
She co-hosts the new podcast, Keys to the Kingdom, which is an unprecedented look at the backstage life of Disneyland cast members.
Please welcome to the show, Amanda Lund!
Amanda!
Oh, thank you. I'm so happy to be here.
It's great to have you.
Thank you for the beautiful intro.
Oh, thank you for, you know, doing all that stuff so we could introduce you with such enthusiasm.
Yeah, it all led me to this point.
That's right. And you are here.
I am here.
How does this rank to like being on Brooklyn Nine-Nine and stuff like that?
Being on this podcast has to be like,
you know,
I mean,
it's a culmination.
I would feel like it is though.
This is,
I mean,
I much prefer it because I get to be at home,
which I love.
I get to just have my little coffee and I'm just like sitting in my home
office.
Yeah.
So comfortable.
Yeah.
So many guitars.
Very,
very cool. Yeah. I i'm gonna play zoom and
we were like whoa i know i'll play all those for you at some point during the podcast no you know
full disclosure this is really my husband matt gorley friend of the show i think he's been on
yeah he's been on a couple times yeah so this. So this is his office. And so, yeah, every once in a while, I kind of sneak in and do a quick podcast and then leave no trace, head out.
But no, I won't be touching the guitars.
Right.
It's like a parasite situation where he doesn't even know you've been in.
Yeah, he has no clue.
I live here.
He doesn't know we're married.
He doesn't know we have a child together.
It's a very complex operation that I'm running here. Impressive.
Yeah, it's really crazy. An impressively
light touch by you. Absolutely.
Amazing.
Well, we can't wait to get to know
you a little bit better. I mean, we obviously know
each other so well. You just said old
friends. You met you at an
old Earwolf holiday party.
Miles and you have
mutual friends. You have mutual friends.
Great mutual friends.
We're basically family.
Yeah.
I think that's all we really need, right?
Those are the sorts of deep relationships we all want in our lives.
Absolutely.
Friends of friends.
And I think I met you at a holiday party.
At a holiday party.
Almost positive.
Yeah.
Well, I'm glad I made an impression.
Yes.
Exactly. All right. We're going to. Yeah. Well, I'm glad I made an impression. Yes. Exactly.
All right.
We're going to get to know you a little bit better.
First, a few of the things we're talking about.
We're talking about Moms for Liberty are back at it again, baby.
We were just talking about them.
Yeah.
So they are trying to get librarians arrested in Florida, of course.
So we're going to talk about that in conjunction
with Mike Johnson's porno app. I don't think it's officially his porno app yet. I'm guessing
the endorses it, though. Yeah, he endorses it. I don't know if the endorsement is official yet,
if he's like appearing in ads. But this is, of course, the new Speaker of the House who is in a bond with his 17-year-old son monitoring one another's jack-off activity.
Jacking off activity.
No other way to really describe that.
How much each other's are jacking off.
And so we're going to talk about that because that's the other way that the right is intervening and showing off their moral authority.
We'll talk about Disney because you are, of course, Amanda, a Disney expert.
And we're going to talk about people shitting at Disneyland.
We are, of course, people shitting experts.
So it's perfect, perfect marriage of our two areas of expertise.
All of that, plenty more.
But first, Amanda,
we do like to ask our guest, what is something from your search history?
Oh, God. Okay. So the one thing that really did pop up yesterday when I looked was,
is it okay for my two-year-old to want to stay home all the time?
Right. Oh, like a homebody two-year-old?
home all the time. Right. Oh, like a homebody two-year-old? Yeah. Because we're currently putting her into school and she freaking hates it. And so I just like, it's just so crazy because
when I Google something like that, it's not like I think there's going to be an answer.
You know what I'm looking for? And this is so sad. I'm looking for a message board where I can just connect to someone in a similar situation.
And then I just quickly scan it.
And then I close the tab and move on with my life.
Right.
Yeah, yeah.
Is that sad?
No.
Yeah, it's not all bad.
Yeah.
I think I should be just texting a friend.
But I guess sometimes our questions are so specific to experience.
Sometimes we don't have somebody who's been through that exact thing.
So I can see why sometimes.
Plus it's cleaner to crowdsource friends, Miles.
You don't, a friend is going to want stuff from you.
That's true.
But this is, you just crowdsource it.
That's true.
You cast a wide net, see other people's experience, and then you can just discard them.
And then you guys don't always get back to me right away.
That's true.
So that's why for this specific one, I didn't really want to text you.
I don't interact with people unless it's on my podcast.
Okay, I see.
You have to come here with a microphone in front of you.
Yeah, I haven't spoken to my wife in seven years.
What'd I say?
It's got to be on mic.
This is content, babe.
This is content, babe.
I have a five-year-old.
I was fighting this exact battle this very morning,
was trying to get him to go to school,
and he unbuckled himself as the car started moving and tried to climb into the front seat and be like, I'm not going.
I'm not.
No, like, I don't think you understand.
I'm not going to school.
It's not happening.
Like Trump on January 6th, like trying to turn the suburban around.
Like, you're like, give me the whole thing.
Like, yo, get back.
Stay back there, sir.
What are you doing?
It's very transitory, though.
Wow.
We were over it within five minutes.
Okay, that's good.
See, my girl, she's new to this whole thing.
So she's got endurance.
Like I was, they have a little gate on the side of the school.
And for like 20 minutes, I was like peeking through the gate.
Yeah.
And like, yeah, she's still going.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Get me out of here.
Fuck you.
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
No, she's got a really dirty mouth.
Don't touch me, you fucking asshole.
You're like, oh my God, where did you learn that?
I'm like, sorry, honey, I got to go do a podcast.
Sorry, very important.
You know what?
You can totally just end this right now and go hang out with your daughter if you want.
Because this is by no means the best thing to be doing.
No, if I get a phone call from the center, I'll have to take it.
But otherwise, you guys, I got my priorities straight.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
What is something you think is overrated?
Okay.
Well, I'm going to do a Disney theme to go along with the podcast that I'm promoting.
Because, yeah, this has just been on my mind because I recently
went to Disney too and and I'm probably going to get some crap for this but I think something
that's overrated is a dole whip overrated the dole overrated well now go you guys know what a dole
whip is oh yeah I do I go to I know what part of the park to go to get my dole whip you know it's
also vegan so you know that that shout out to the people who can also enjoy that treat i know i know that little bit of information too okay well like i'm
not anti-vegan so don't take it why no you hate vegan yeah just why don't we get to that part
what is gonna seem that i'm anti-vegan because the thing i think is underrated is a corn dog
the jesuit corn dog so fuck a dole whip let's go corn dog let's go corn dog but So fuck a Dole Whip.
Let's go corn dog.
Let's go corn dog.
But I just,
I don't know.
I just feel like the Dole Whip
is the one treat
that everyone's like,
you have to eat this
when you go to Disneyland.
And for anyone who doesn't know,
it's like a pineapple soft serve.
And then if you get the float,
it's like Dole pineapple juice
on top of the,
I don't know.
It's like,
it's just maybe like a little bit like too much
pineapple and there's not like a lot of complexity of flavor no i know what you mean it's like very
pleasant and i think you know what it was it was probably because you had to go over to like near
the tiki room to get that shit that people are like you can only get it in this part of the park
and that's why for me my favorite weird uh disney weird Disneyland food is clam chowder and a bread bowl.
Oh, hell yeah.
I'm with you.
I'm all about the New Orleans Square food.
Even the mint julep is really good in the beignets.
Yeah.
I'm such a one-track.
I only eat, when I go to Disneyland, I always eat churros and sourdough or bread bowl clam chowder.
And I feel like I actually need to try other things because I only eat those two things consistent.
It's really weird.
I mean, that sounds like a delicious Disney snack.
But I would I would I don't know if you like get into hot dogs or what your feelings are.
Yeah, I'm curious.
I'm curious.
If you're dog curious, I would definitely say next time, just treat yourself to the $12 corn dog.
Yeah.
What's so expensive?
Wait, why is that so?
Yeah.
Why is that so remarkable?
Is it enormous?
Is it the size of like a turkey leg?
It's about the size of your microphone, Jack.
Okay.
Oh, shit.
Actually, you could just kind of imagine that as a corn dog and it would be like.
That's wide. That's what it would look like a corn dog and it would be like that's wide that's what
it would look like that sounds like it would be obscene it sounds like my eyes would be watering
as i tried to take the first bite yeah you gotta do it all at once i just pull up the popsicle
stick just yeah just yeah down the gullet bones and all cliff eating a eating a fish yeah exactly
but it's it's just okay and the 12 dollars
will also get you if you want to be healthy a little mandarin on the side oh really yeah i'm
serious what a bag of chips or like the healthy option is like you get a little oh i thought you
meant like a mandarin sauce i was like damn this is like some gourmand shit that I didn't know about.
Oh, just like a mandarin orange that you can get at the grocery store.
Okay.
Yeah.
To like help grease the walls, add to the viscosity as it's going down.
It just kind of sits on top in your stomach.
So it's like the corn dog and then a few little mandarin slices just sort of sitting there.
Now, did you OD the the whip when you were
working at disney did you have too much yeah how did you arrive here um it's possible so i was a
disney princess yes and that's what i did for like you know six or seven years started the job when i
was 17 wow was that legal disney like Disney lacks our laws than NCAA, than NBA?
No, you can work. I mean, you couldn't have a work permit, right? I think I got hired when I was 16
and then I started working when I was 17. Right, right.
But one of my best friends, her sister worked in one of the cafeterias scooping the fettuccine
sauce onto the noodles. And so we would go in there and she'd hook us up just with a big to-go container filled with just the chicken fettuccine sauce.
Okay.
Just like as if it's like a chowder?
Yeah, exactly.
You would like it, actually.
Drop that shit in a bread bowl?
Yeah, that shit would.
Yeah, I mean, I'm not going to say no to that.
Yeah.
And so that was kind of like that's where I'm coming from as far as my palate yeah classy so yeah yeah like the anthony bourdain of uh disney princesses of disney cuisine
yeah exactly gotta get a bowl of alfredo sauce are you eating that with a spoon bowl of alfredo
a straw or just fingers fingers yeah Fingers? Yeah. Okay.
Did you ever do that while you were in your Disney princess costume?
No, but occasionally.
Just like somebody turns a corner and Cinderella's just there eating chicken fettuccine with her hand. Don't look at me.
Oh, stop looking at me.
Turn away, child.
That's amazing.
Are you able to go back to Disney and and just have it like enjoy yourself does having
seen the other side of the curtain like change it for you do you like no cut throughs and
shortcuts i think they're colloquially referred to as yeah that's a good question actually and
it's funny we do explore it a little bit on the podcast, which I host with Matt Gorley, my husband, who also worked at Disney for like 10 years, although we never met there. We also both worked at Universal Studios. But we have we have different answers to that question. So like, for me, I still love it. And I even when I worked there, like after work, I'd like go meet my friends and just like hang out. And for him, it tarnished it a little bit more because he was more sensitive to the experience of working for this big corporation.
Yeah.
So I think everyone who works there has a different answer to that question.
But I personally still like it, especially when you work there and you get to go just for like an hour or two at a time for free.
That's the way to do it.
go just for like an hour or two at a time for free that's the way to do it it's when you've paid five billion dollars and you're there like from rope drop till the the fireworks that you
lose your mind and you're like i'm never coming back here right i'm gonna get every cent out of
these tickets even if my kids are unconscious at three different times right oh you know it's so
funny when you see that like where you see people pushing strollers around with just fucking passed out kids.
And you're like, oh, my God, what's going on here? Like, who is this for at this point?
It's like, look, these tickets were $5.50 a piece.
Oh, we're staying till it closes. And those are the lucky people.
The ones who aren't lucky are the ones whose children will not fall asleep and they just are having meltdowns.
Right. Constantly. Yeah, I'm about to do that the week of Thanksgiving. So
I'm looking forward to total chaos because I know that is one of the most crowded times
for the park. And I'm I don't know what's going to happen. I might transcend into Christ
consciousness because because it's so horrifying. I don't know what else to do except to just
go to another place mentally. It could it could be tough, but I would say listen to the podcast.
We have an episode on the guest experience where we talk to a third-party, non-Disney-affiliated guide who takes people on tours through Disney but is not officially affiliated.
But they have all the hacks of how to get the most bang for all the like hacks. Okay.
How to make them get the most bang for your buck.
Yeah.
Okay.
And there's other also places to defecate that are listed there that might not be on the map.
That's the crazy thing.
Like no bathrooms at Disney.
Yeah.
I told you.
See, Jack?
Right.
It's fine.
It's fine if you go pee pee anywhere.
Right. It's fine. It's fine if you go pee pee anywhere.
Now, I saw the material for your show and Matt, it looked like like was inside a trash can at one point, like playing like moving, playing a moving trash can.
Or I don't know if he was just like picking up garbage for the like.
And then you you are, of course, a princess.
Is there like a caste system behind the scenes where like, are you treated as a star, as the star that you would one day become?
Yes, there is definitely a hierarchy backstage.
And you're going to be shocked by this, but the trash can is above the princess.
Wow.
Isn't that crazy? I'm not even kidding
because Matt was a union performer.
So he wasn't inside that trash can.
Oh, okay.
I would love it
if he was just like shuffling around.
But no, he was like controlling.
It was called,
what was the trash can's name?
Oh God, he's going to kill me.
No, I'm just kidding.
It was this talking trash can
that he basically controlled
it from a little remote covertly. He was just like sitting on a bench looking like a park guest
with a little microphone. So the trash can would like, oh, his name was Push, like come up to you
and be like, hey, toots, like that churro looks good. And he was making probably like $30 an hour.
But me as a princess, I think I was making like less than half of that.
And this is, of course,
you know, back in the 2000s,
early 2000s.
Because that was Union.
And then it goes princesses.
And then under that
are the fuzzy characters.
And we interviewed
a good amount of the fuzzy characters
for the podcast.
And some of them
had such damning stories
that we had to disguise their voices and change their names.
Like, no, I'm serious.
People were scared to talk.
The things I've seen at Disney World.
And you're like, oh, no.
Yeah.
No, I'm not even kidding.
People were scared to talk to us.
Because everyone was like, aren't you guys scared you're going to get sued?
And we're like, well, yes, but we don't have any.
Yeah, I mean, maybe.
That's free publicity.
And we're not just talking about disney
we're talking about all theme parks you know but disney of course is the one everyone is
sure interested in yeah is there anyone below the fuzzy characters that feels like the worst
experience to be inside one of those during a hot summer yeah i think as far as the characters go
and that's what the podcast focuses on or their
experiences that fuzzies it's like that's a tough job that is a tough that's the grunt work yeah
it's hard and it's like it's a hot the guests are like jerks to you yeah and you can't say
shit right no you can't talk and it's just i don't know it's just, I don't know. It's just tough.
That's a physically really difficult job to do.
And mentally.
But I would say princessing is a little bit more of a mind game.
Captain Jack Sparrow, like one of the cool people to like.
Well, I feel like anybody who plays captain jack sparrow as a
character at disneyland probably like has a certain personality profile oh yeah yeah to really embody
that yeah they thought they thought they were a hot ship but they would get hit on they'd get
phone numbers like nobody's business but matt also told me that a lot of women would just dump their phone numbers in his trash can. And I, oh my God, women really have low self-esteem. Like you're putting your
numbers straight into the trash. Yeah. I'm hooking up with a trash can, a literal trash can later.
Yeah. I would fuck that trash can. Oh, yes. I'm hot about that trash can. I spent $500
on this ticket. I'm not leaving until I fuck that trash can.
It's funny, but I mean, I did marry a trash can.
You did.
Yeah.
And ladies, I am very satisfied.
Let me tell you that.
That was the initial spark was trash can, you say.
All right.
Let's take a quick break.
We're going to come back.
We'll talk some news and we'll get back into some Disney stuff a little later on. We'll be right back.
I'm Jess Casavetto, executive producer of the hit Netflix documentary series,

It was December 2019 when the story blew up.
In Green Bay, Wisconsin, former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila
caught up in a bizarre situation.
KGB explaining what he believes led to the arrest of his friends at a children's Christmas play.
A family man, former NFL player, devout Christian,
now cut off from his family and connected to a strange arrest.
I am going to share my journey of how I went from Christianity to now a Hebrew Israelite.
I got swept up in Kabir's journey, but this was only the beginning.
In a story about faith and football, the search for meaning away from the gridiron
and the consequences for everyone involved.
You mix homesteading with guns and church
and a little bit of the spice of conspiracy theories that we liked.
Voila! You got straight away.
I felt like I was living in North Korea, but worse, if that's possible.
Listen to Spiraled on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back. And as we discussed with Jared Holt, a.k.a. Holtamania, on our special Tuesday episode, you know, Moms for Liberty still out here.
I guess we didn't get into Moms for Liberty that much, but the right-wing movement in these United States is on the move.
They're out here strategizingizing and they are focusing on schools
and libraries.
And there's a new Florida law
that took effect,
which essentially allows
for the banning of any book
that has, quote,
sexual content from schools.
And under these guidelines,
that would include the works of,
oh, have you guys heard about
this fucking pervert
William Shakespeare?
Oh, disgusting.
Sicko.
Disgusting.
Smut peddler.
Really.
Yeah.
Smut spear is what we call him.
But if your first question is, has this led to right-wingers literally trying to get librarians arrested?
Yes.
Yes, it has.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We've got some great police body cam footage showing two members of Moms for Liberty complaining to the cops about a school librarian who was breaking the law by lending out a YA fantasy novel to teens.
Jesus.
Yeah, I mean, it's and it was pretty salacious.
You know, it's all about this like teen who's dealing with fucking gargoyles.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But gargoyles are little perverts. Yeah, yeah. But gargoyles are little perverts.
Yeah, they are.
I know.
Gargoyles are incredibly horny.
I get it.
And I think there's a scene
where there's making out
and something that almost leads to sex.
Not them actually,
but that's the passage
that is so objectionable.
Yeah.
Yeah. Maybe a little dry humping. Yeah, yeah. what it happened and so they they go into the police station with the book
like drop it on in front of the presumably like homicide detective
third degree felony he's like what third degree felony right there the governor
says this is child pornography it's a serious crime just as serious as if i handed a playboy
to her right now right here in front of you she is gesturing to like her four-year-old daughter
who's like here for this shit yeah who has to be there to the police station. Yeah. Just a fucking nightmare for everyone involved.
But the book.
Yeah.
It's it just doesn't.
I don't know.
It's called Storm and Fury.
OK.
Well, I will be reading this.
I know.
Great advertising.
Like if you guys got sued by Disney.
This is great.
Right.
Everyone's trying to get banned from by Mothers for Liberty. Liberty Mothers. What and get banned by Mothers for Liberty.
Liberty Mothers, what's their name?
Moms for Liberty?
Yeah.
We're called Moms for Liberty, and we do have great potlucks.
Yeah, no, I'm not a member of this group.
Although it sounds like I like the community.
Sounds like a good time.
I mean, it's just wild that they're going, it's just now straight to the police station with a book saying,
you need to arrest them.
And also having no idea what pornography is, child pornography or laws.
Like, truly.
This is child pornography.
If I handed this child pornography, this is child pornography?
Is like the logic that we're using here?
I just don't understand because like, do you know kids who would be reading that
like that age range it's like your imagination is like the most like vivid pornographic thing
at that age or at least mine was and i'm just like this book is like paling into compare in
comparison to whatever is already going on in those you know tweens minds yeah you're like come
on can i get some more descriptor words here?
Yeah, exactly.
I can't get jiggy to this passage about the gargoyle almost having sex.
As the kids continue to say to this day, I can't get jiggy with this.
Miles, the timely reference.
Yeah, but this is a book that would be like recommended as a skip, like from one teenager to another,
be like,
no,
you skip that.
Like they don't even have sex.
Like they just like make out and almost have sex.
Like this is,
this is not the one,
but this is like the best that moms for Liberty can come up with for their,
you know,
evidence that there's a plot to spoil the minds of,
of their children.
Um, the book is recommended by, by the way, for 14, of their children. Um,
the book is recommended by,
by the way,
for 14 to 18 year olds.
So,
you know,
also known as high school age.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Again,
it's just like,
they,
they were doing,
they were trying to go the school board route and now it's just,
they're like,
fuck it,
man,
just go straight to the cops.
It's funny how like the,
you know,
some police are like,
I don't know what you want me to do here. They like the governor said and they're like okay but then you have like other incidences
where these parents have tried something like that and some are like okay we're investigating
it or whatever which is just as fucked up because you're like investigating it just like the whole
police department like reading that book on their lunch break. Right. Yeah.
But yeah, it's just again the cheapening of like actual, like this is the
same thing. Like they're throwing
people off from like what real child trafficking
is, what actual child pornography
is by just going this route
of being like, the gargoyles almost
banged. And that's
illegal. And you're like, you're actually
doing a disservice to like the actual
people who are trying to you know protect children from having to like be in child pornography but
you this is this is a better use of their time i guess yeah gargoyle sculptures are like aren't
they usually nude like yeah i think i've seen a gargoyle wearing clothes yeah well they're like
little like kind
of buff little men and maybe there's like a little cloth or something that they're wearing
anyways i'm trying to find out why are gargoyles hot okay that's a good question no one is actually
answering this i do like that they brought the book in a large manila envelope. It's a 512 page
book and they were like, this is
evidence. State's evidence.
Yeah, exactly.
Clear bag. I just
imagine them just like being okay
and they take the book back and put it in a
little jail cell.
Right.
Stop resisting! And they throw
the book down and you're like, oh, my God.
Y'all, are y'all for real?
And this is interesting, too, because it's like that one thing we saw in Utah.
I forget.
I don't know.
I haven't checked back in on the state of it.
But remember, one parent was like, oh, if you think this book's bad, check out the Bible.
Yeah.
That's such a good point.
And like that one school board was like, all right.
Yeah.
We'll look into it.
Maybe it does need to get banned. And you're like, wait, what board is like, all right, yeah, we'll look into it. Maybe it does need to get banned.
And you're like, wait, what?
Bible could get got to, man.
Yeah.
Anything can happen.
We're fucking crazy.
Anything can happen.
We'll do fucking anything, man.
So here we are.
But yeah, Bill Shakespeare should also be on there.
They probably can't parse through like the like the like literary nature of shakespeare
and they're like how does a beast have two backs and you're like never mind it's like y'all are
reading interracial porno right now but you're like confused i don't know these words yeah well
for for an idea of what they have in mind for how to parent. So obviously, books that exist in a universe where sex is a reality, obviously out the window.
Burn those, literally.
But on the other hand, how do you keep tabs on your children?
Well, we have a new house speaker, Mike Johnson, to take our cues from.
We just kind of skipped over this yesterday.
Yeah.
This should probably be just what our podcast is about from now on.
So the new speaker, like an old clip from a 2022 Christian event called War on Technology went viral over the weekend in which this new speaker, Mike Johnson, paused for a moment to praise the tech that allowed for sermons to be streamed.
So that's one good piece of technology.
We'll let them stick around when we do our war on technology.
The other one that he praised, Covenant Eyes,
his go-to shameware app that prevents people from looking at porn.
We had covered the existence of of this shameware before it's
basically you create a buddy system with one other person and then that person gets a report
about your internet use from that week at the end of the week and is like finds out if you stray from a jesus approved browser history
essentially it's called covenant eyes it's it's just so and so and in this like when he's like
i love covenant eyes and my accountability partner is my 17 year old sonold son. Oof, that's just wrong. Why are you even opening that door?
Like, son, you know I jack off way too much.
Hey, look, man, I get it.
I just jacked off right before coming in here to talk to you.
Like, what?
Why are we opening this?
I mean, again, but I think this is part of how like backwards his worldview is.
Like because we've talked about how this guy is also like into like, you know, like gay torture and like has been with all these like virulent, like homophobic groups and like, you know, just trying to criminalize gay sex.
So he's definitely in like the farthest reaches of the extreme part.
sex so he's definitely in like the farthest reaches of the extreme part and then yeah it makes sense that now he's just using this or that sort of ideology is wrapped up and now it's like
and now my son is part of my accountability team and you know this here we are just to further
shame people for whatever the fuck they're doing as humans have you guys ever seen this where like
a married couple will be sharing an email address.
Do you have anyone in like your like I have some, you know, some people I know who are like more conservative religious.
And it seems to be a thing that like there's some suggestion that like, you know, you should
not have your own accounts.
Right.
That like I think and I think it's to this the same like premise as covenant eyes that
this will be accountability.
This way you can't have secrets from your spouse or be conducting, having affairs or whatever.
I don't have anything to hide.
So why would we have separate emails when we could have one just giant, unwieldy inbox that we both have to monitor and home out like each other.
This would be Matt's worst nightmare would be sharing an email account with me because I have like 300,000 unread messages or something.
And he has none.
Zero.
Oh, he's a zero inbox person?
I think we call those fascists.
Is he the zero inbox person?
Mm-hmm.
Shout out to them. I think we call those fascists.
Yeah, but zero inbox people are like a different species that I don't.
I should, like, I want to study them like they're a higher life form than they have to be like you.
Definitely.
But yeah, like the single email address is very like Mike Pence.
Like, I will never have a
mother i'll never be alone with a woman anywhere because you know because god because you see the
riz dude it's dripping off of me yeah exactly it is so frightening the whole premise of this
and by the way like they have multiple devices right like it's it's all for
show like it doesn't it's completely meaningless right yeah the idea that this old guy is like
his son is unable to get around these sensors that like he is beholden to is kind of is very
funny to me that he's like uh he did say, he said his son's, his accountability partner, his son, I'm proud to tell you, my son has got a clean slate.
Which is funny because, no, he doesn't.
He's just better at technology than you, you dumb fuck.
They're like, he loves drawing naked women, though.
So many drawings this kid has, some really explicit stuff.
But he knows the human form right but
like he's not looking at stuff on the internet yeah and also like that statement of him being
like and i gotta tell you my son clean slate conspicuously omits his own slate which suggests
that his 17 year old is like having to like catch him in the act of jacking off all the time. Oh, God.
Yeah.
God.
Like that.
I don't know.
It's I guess it wouldn't be like handing your daughter a playboy right there in front of a cop.
But it's like telling your 17 year old son that you jacked off to a playboy.
Like also not great.
I feel like the cops shouldn't approve of that.
But at least it's his dad. I don't know don't i'm not sure how that better yeah i don't know how what the stakes are
exactly but what's funny though is like that there are actual stakes from him talking about using
this app because many people heard this and they're like i'm sorry you have spyware basically
on your phone that monitors all of your internet activity spyware for jesus
though okay spy in this count in this case is jesus okay okay i'm sorry and but either way
jesus you are looking at sensitive materials can jesus also see that through yes and it's okay
that i look at porn because jesus looks at it with me and he's like that one's all right
that one's good dude skip this, dude. Skip this one.
Skip this one.
Skip this one.
Open a new tab, dude.
Close it.
Go to the next tab.
It's just getting worse and worse by the minute.
Yeah.
And like, I think that's what's like now.
Everyone's like, this is an actual national security risk
to have this kind of shit on your phone.
Well, this is what we covered.
Like the first time we covered it,
in addition to it being like a weird,
like social dynamic where people are like
shaming themselves into like not and like shaming each other and like a lot of times this is
distributed or like it's a tool that like your pastor tells you about in these communities and
is like you should be on covenant eyes if you're not already covenant eyes jesus christ like what
a weird but the other reason that we were covering it is it's created by a former nsa mathematician and the app reportedly exploits android's accessibility permissions
allowing them to record every website visited in the device's browser and also like google had to
remove it from their app store because it they were also it was like monitoring everything someone
did on their phone not just the browser stuff right and so google even was like not famous for
their respect for digital privacy had to step in and be like guys this is this is weird right isn't
the keyword they're also android because i feel like they're definitely don't have iphones right no no i don't think you can let me see is
it on ios let's see because i could see where this could be a useful tool just it's on it's on ios
oh you can get it just just to like shame yourself into not like going being on instagram so much or
like right like you know if i if i had an accountability partner, they'd be like, oh my God, Amanda, you like searched, like looked into pants for like three hours on Monday.
Like you need to kind of get your act together.
You also need to specify your searches.
You just wrote pants into the search into Google.
Yeah, I just wrote pants.
Nothing more specific than that?
Pants for me.
Me want pants.
Me pants. Me pants me pants pants me
then it got into pantsing videos it's very weird it's it's a weird rabbit hole yeah i get it right
in the end though somehow i find my way back to the nordstrom website you stand up and your pants pants are like 14 sizes too big but so even he like on the one hand at first i was like maybe
he's just like saying this because it's like a weird like christian cred thing you know right
but he specifically was like complaining about how it was baggy or sorry how it was buggy not
like your pants baggy but it was buggy and had flagged two women
conversing with his son as questionable so like he has like detailed user experience that he's
like talking about with this thing that was created by some creep who used to work for the
NSA allegedly and just uses the the idea ofity to like get people to send him their porn browsing history
yeah man the survey who thought the surveillance state was so kinky
just like they're like yeah man i don't i can see everything with this app it's just again i don't
know i think it's just more parody for what's happening because it's like this guy is we just had we were talking
earlier about how he had no bank account now like one of his like spokespeople was like he has a
bank account he just didn't report it and you're like that's better that's weird man there's so
much murky shit going on with him it's just so like but i guess that's part and parcel yeah he
also like spearheaded a christian-based law law school in Louisiana, which never actually had any students and ultimately lost five million dollars. Oh, yeah. The Washington Post like did a deep dive where they were like, where did that money go and why were you overselling this thing after you got a report that was like, this is a fucking bad idea man nobody there is literally nobody who there's
no base for this nobody's going to be interested in this and he just like kept selling it kept
pushing it so oh so no one wants an institution that focuses on training christian attorneys in
northwest louisiana okay i mean it sounds like a surefire bet right there but when you say it but i don't know i guess
i guess the data said otherwise so yeah anyways a lot more question marks about this speaker but
hey this is yeah i mean it's like yeah it's funny like even without this like weird stuff going on
his personal life just like his the like where he's at on certain issues is like enough to be like,
dude,
he is like a gargoyle
who's like on the side
of a church.
Yeah.
Like it's his whole energy.
But hey,
without his clothes on.
Without his clothes on.
Well, actually with a suit on
because he's one of those,
you know,
kind gargoyles.
I'm getting an alert here.
I've got your guys's,
what's it called?
What's the app called?
Covenant Eyes.
Your Covenant Eyes here just
alerted me that you guys are having some
naughty search histories.
No.
I'm going to
add you on Covenant Eyes, so accept
my request.
Gargoyle no pants?
That was my
search history.
Gargoyle hung.
Mine are a little more explicit
I just meant hung from the side of the building
from the building
what the heck are you talking about dad
I was asking if the gargoyle
was hanging out somewhere
and I misspelled it
parents just don't understand
let's uh
they should add a verse to that song.
It's about your parents sharing a Covenant Eyes account with your parents.
Yeah, Will Smith, come back, baby.
Your dad goes on national television and brags about how you don't jack off at all?
Oh, no.
Oh, boy.
Well, hey, maybe he's levitating from all that.
From all that being so chaste.
That's right.
All right.
Let's take a quick break and we're going to come back.
We're going to talk Disneyland and Disney World.
We'll be right back.
I'm Jess Casavetto, executive producer of the hit Netflix documentary series,
Dancing for the Devil, the 7M TikTok cult.
And I'm Clea Gray, former member of 7M Films and
Shekinah Church. And we're the host of the new podcast, Forgive Me For I Have Followed. Together,
we'll be diving even deeper into the unbelievable stories behind 7M Films and LA-based Shekinah
Church, an alleged cult that has impacted members for over two decades. Jessica and I will delve
into the hidden truths between high control groups and interview dancers, church members, and others whose lives and careers have been impacted,
just like mine. Through powerful, in-depth interviews with former members and new,
chilling firsthand accounts, the series will illuminate untold and extremely necessary
perspectives. Forgive Me For I Have Followed will be more than an exploration. It's a vital
revelation aimed at ensuring these types of abuses never happen again.
Listen to Forgive Me For I Have Followed on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
It was December 2019 when the story blew up.
In Green Bay, Wisconsin, former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila caught up in a bizarre situation.
former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila, caught up in a bizarre situation.
KGB explaining what he believes led to the arrest of his friends at a children's Christmas play.
A family man, former NFL player, devout Christian,
now cut off from his family and connected to a strange arrest.
I am going to share my journey of how I went from Christianity to now a Hebrew Israelite.
I got swept up in Kabir's journey, but this was only the beginning. In a story about faith and football, the search for meaning away from the gridiron and the consequences for everyone
involved. You mix homesteading with guns and church and a little bit of the spice of conspiracy
theories that we liked. Voila! You got straight away.
I felt like I was living in North Korea, but worse, if that's possible.
Listen to Spiraled on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
How do you feel about biscuits?
Hi, I'm Akilah Hughes, and I'm so excited about my new podcast, Rebel Spirit,
where I head back to my hometown in Kentucky and try to convince my high school to change their racist mascot, the Rebels, into something everyone in the South loves, the Biscuits.
I was a lady rebel.
Like, what does that even mean?
The Boone County Rebels will stay the Boone County Rebels with the image of the Biscuits.
It's right here in black and white in print.
They lion.
An individual that came to the school saying that God sent him
to talk to me about the mascot switch
is a leader.
You choose hills that you want to die on.
Why would we want to be the losing team?
I'd just take all the other stuff out of it.
Segregation academies.
When civil rights said that
we need to integrate public schools,
these charter schools were exempt from that.
Bigger than a flag or mascot.
You have to be ready for serious backlash.
Listen to Rebel Spirit on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back.
We're back.
And Amanda Lund, you have a new podcast we mentioned up top. Keys to the Kingdom, by the way. And we're back. We're back. We're back to Mandelund.
You have a new podcast we mentioned up top.
Keys to the Kingdom, by the way, well-named.
I don't often say that about podcasts, but just a perfect name.
Thank you.
But you are using your background as a Disney Park cast member,
as well as a bunch of research and interviews to take people behind the scenes.
And there's one story that popped onto our radar about people.
People are apparently pooping all over the park in places they're not supposed to.
Yeah, I it was wild how I like when we were putting together stories for the episode, like this story, like literally dropped like yesterday.
So an SF gate, highly regarded journalistic outlet, by the way.
And like so the story is sort of going on a lot of stories that are being shared on Reddit by former cast members and guests that seem to overlap.
So one person posted in like a Disney subreddit quote, I am in the queue for Rise of the Resistance.
Someone let their kid take a dump on the floor and then they just walked out and left it.
WTF.
Then someone replied, for the skeptics, this actually happened.
Fun fact, this was one of three shit related incidents at Rise today.
Less fun fact, I was here for all three of them.
So it sounds like shit like this, and the pun is intended, has also happened on attractions like Flight of Passage at Disney World.
Someone said, quote, let's just say that the attraction I work at has what the cast ended up dubbing, quote, the poop hall.
Because of the amount of times guests have gone in there and pooped.
We even put up a camera and it didn't stop it.
And I don't know how hyperbolic it might have
encouraged her yeah is this must be because the lines are long and like perhaps i mean
i'm not surprised i i've heard of one instance of this but it was at hong kong disneyland okay
then that was a friend told me a story I think a guest maybe pooped in like a
planter. Yeah. Okay. Well, at least that's a planter versus right there in the line for
Rise of the Stars. That's true. Wait, are we not supposed to poop in the planter? That's fertilizer.
Okay. So you've been pooping in the planters. I'm not going to say I did it frequently,
but I thought that, yeah, fertilizer, good for the plant.
Let's just say his living room stinks.
Yeah.
Do not go inside his house in the summer.
Balancing on like a tiny little, but at the custodial, the custodial staff at Disneyland, they've got stories.
stories and we actually this isn't poop related but we talked to a wall street journal journalist who had written a story about people spreading ashes yeah and that is a super common occurrence
in the haunted mansion specifically and he here's just like a little tidbit we talked about this in
the last episode of the podcast but when the custodial notices someone has spread
ashes they call it in over their little walkies as code grandma oh my gosh but then they got in
trouble for doing that so they had to call it like whatever code clean up or g yeah something
or grand m code ashes it's incredible incredible that that kind of stuff goes on.
I don't know. I personally have never
even really seen or
smelled poop at Disney.
Yeah.
They want to keep the princesses insulated
from that sort of thing.
They need you to just
believe the magic.
Now that I say that, that's a lie
because i did
smell a lot of poop poopy diapers yeah oh yeah it's in their diapers yeah that's what i'm like
is it i get that too like when you have thousands of little kids having to wait in long lines
right shit happens there you know exactly like they should have more bathrooms along the path of the line because it's like, you know, I was at Disney World less than a year ago.
And, you know, you are waiting for hours.
If you don't remember to, like, get your kids, like, get your kid to the bathroom beforehand.
get your kid to the bathroom beforehand like at at some point your four-year-old's going to be like look man it's not it's not a question of if or when it's happening it's a it's a question of
where it's happening right you gotta you gotta bite the bullet and just be like well i just
waited in a three-hour line for nothing right right right which is fine but then your kid's gonna be like
upset about having to miss that but yeah and i was curious if it's like because there's a lot
of stories about adults going to the bathroom too so you're like well hold on what the fuck's going
on it's not just kids and i don't know if it's like are people having some kind of like mariko
aoki phenomenon kind of thing you know like where people who have to like go to a bookstore and got to take a dump suddenly.
Like, are people just overwhelmed by the Magic Kingdom and like their bowels go phantasmic on them?
Or like what?
I think you might be honestly, I think you might be on to something.
I feel like people are just so excited.
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
And like maybe the clam chowder doesn't help.
Not for me. That's what i do to avoid
walking around with a bread bowl of clam chowder just housing it man just housing it and then
no spoon like a fucking viking sipping out of my vanquished enemy's skull yeah i love it
and it looks just as tough as that oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Except it's really gross.
And people are like, do you have to, like, slurp that, like, in line right now in my ear?
I'm like, look, I haven't been here in a while.
But it sounds like the code system, like, is normal, right?
Because, like, you just said there's code grandma or whatever they altered it for spreading ashes.
And there's also a code for feces which is code h for like horse manure so the
custodial staff could clean up any like horse shit like on main street and now they also have human
code h for the human variety which is human code h is so foreboding like that doesn't make me less
curious what's going on right i'm i'm following the employees who are like, we got a human code H over here.
We got a,
like, it sounds like
a human code H.
No, we're not.
Tune town or something.
Like,
or there's like
some soylent green thing happening.
Yeah, that's scary.
I bet they clean it up
like so efficiently
that you like
wouldn't even notice.
Like, I heard a story
that one time at Disney
during Christmas, you know they
have those big like clydesdale horses okay so one of the horses like dropped dead and they put like
a little tarp over it but they don't obviously want just like a dead horse in the middle of
main street so they surrounded the horse with christmas carolers oh my, wait. As a way to kind of like distract from like.
Nothing to see here.
What's behind that tarp?
Shut the fuck up.
Yeah, exactly.
So I wonder if they do the same thing with like a little turd on the ground.
If they'd be like quick Pinocchio, like go over there and like do some animation in front of the little turd.
And put like a Mickey hat on it, on top of it.
Just to be like, it's nothing.
Because anything is that can be made a magical moment, know and that is what disney does best yeah what's more whimsical than
a pile of excrement with a mickey hat i can't think of anything else that would that would
probably brighten my day i wonder like do the people who run the show who are like all right
get me 20 carolers over here and just have them circle the horse carcass and start like that's that's a
sort of genius that i feel like are are these people who like what what is your background
when you get to that position is your background like being a casino pit boss or are you are you
coming from like the world of like you know I've been involved in many kinetic situations in the Middle East, if you know what I'm saying.
They're probably coming from the Pentagon.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The Pentagon is a revolving door between the Pentagon and like controlling, like being the eyes in the sky at Disneyland and Disney World.
You would think so.
I don't think so, but I think the road to getting that job is just being a Disney adult and believing so heavily in the magic that you will do whatever it takes to protect the magic.
Including if a kid sees the dead horse, that kid needs to go.
Because otherwise he's going to get out into the world, start talking about it, and he he's gonna dissipate the magic a little bit or what you do is you um indoctrinate that child and you make sure they have a lifelong career in the company right like keep your enemies closer oh right right right just absorb them
they're like hey kid you got a lot of potential don't waste it out there in the real world you
should you should apply that here in the kingdom what do you think if you ever get the sense that
they're turning you gotta you gotta take care of that really quick yeah oh yeah
yeah they're like yeah and they and they do a thing they're like you don't want a bunch of
carolers singing around you right you know what the folks don't not get enough don't act right
end up spread around the haunted mansion do you yeah you take him over to tom sawyer's island yeah like a little boat ride take a little
boat ride with me yeah the real grinch like a mob hit on the canoes you know those canoes that no
one goes on yeah like hey let's let's go on a canoe ride you want to go fishing yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah let's do that it's interesting too like even how like even the design of I didn't realize there are certain parts of the park that are like sort of acknowledging rivers of excrement, which I did not know.
This is alleged, allegedly.
I haven't heard this.
In Liberty Square, there is an there's an odd brown path that is meant to hearken 16th century when indoor plumbing didn't exist and represent the river of excrement that would have been flowing when people emptied their chamber pots.
So they're like, I don't know if like this is what they're trying to do.
Like it's supposed to look like an odd path, but like people with a historic lens like that kind of looks like back in the day when people just dump their poo and pee out in the middle of street and created a little sewage river.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The Imagineers are really sick. sick oh you sick fucks yeah i think to your point like one clinical psychologist explanation behind
like public defecation includes anxiety and i think you know kids getting ready to go on a ride
or even like adults i saw some like pretty wild shit happen like as an adult got to the front
of like the longest line i waited in when i was at disney world was like the ratatouille ride and
like there was an adult who like wanted their ride to go like exactly the way they had envisioned it
and so they didn't want to ride with anybody else next to them. And the people had to like kick them off the ride because they were like fighting with them.
It was like very, very sad, upsetting, but it's just like too much.
People truly snap.
And you just also have to imagine like the amount of people going through Disneyland like on any given day.
going through Disneyland, like on any given day, like their crowd control is so good that you don't even really can't even comprehend how many people are actually around you. And so it's just
statistically like some of those people are going to have a tummy ache. Right? Yeah. Yeah. I think
it's also too, it's kind of like, you know, I get the anxiety part because it's so fucking expensive
to go to Disneyland, Disney World.
And if you don't live in Florida or California, like that's an expense.
People save a lot of fucking money to take their family to go have this experience.
And I can just see how that can mount to a point where, yeah, maybe, you know, your stomach goes haywire a little bit.
You're like, fuck, I need to take a shit.wire a little bit but i mean it's like i
feel like it's the same way like right like we were talking like earlier like when the show first
started we're talking about how there's so many fights with parents at chucky cheese yeah yeah
that's also because they serve alcohol but a lot of people also point to the fact that a child's
birthday coupled with like maybe stressed finances and things like that can create like a high anxiety environment that can just go off at any second and i've seen recently like clips of like people fucking
scrapping at disneyland too and you're like i i can see how like all of that can come together
where it's coming out in like people getting aggressive with each other or maybe just
rivers of shit going left. Taking just a
little poop, just squatting in line
at Pirate to the Caribbean and just
like letting a few drop
and then moving on your way and saying
hey, my number's up. I'm going to get
on this ride. Yeah.
Money I'm paying. I should be allowed
to take a shit in this line.
That's exactly right. And I get why
too, like the person you're
talking about jack who knows how much money they spent and like in their mind they're like no no no
y'all motherfuckers owe me this i'm going ratatouille this fucking way and you're like
well we have like thousands of people in line here like we can't really guarantee that
yeah and yeah people want to fucking lose it but hey i don't know you know and like the disney
like business plan has been like i remember we were talking within the last year that like park
attendance was down and then it was revealed that was actually part of their plan because they just
like charged so much money that people would actually stop coming in such high numbers to the park and like it wouldn't
the drop in attendance wouldn't offset the amount of money they were making and it would make it
like a better experience for the people there except of course for the people who can't afford
it and are like she's like having a breakdown because they're realizing like they're putting
too much pressure on this moment because they've gone into debt to accomplish it.
That's crazy.
I mean, if I was a billionaire, like I would just become a Club 33 member and like pay whatever $30,000 a year just to have that kind of like no line experience.
Yeah.
Club 33, that's real that's a
like club at disney that's like behind the scenes and but it's invite only oh yeah you get beat into
it by mickey mouse and pluto you have to name a bunch of cereals why they jump you already know
that's the proud boys when they jump you in sorry i get it mixed up sometimes yeah but yeah i remember
like i had a friend who was like whose
family was fully disney brained as kids and i remember they threw somebody at their church
they went to got the chance to go and eat at the restaurant and shit and like i like for them it
was like ascending to the next level of existence we're like we dare dude like you'll never see it
couldn't take pictures and like there are there are some pictures on the internet,
but apparently those are totally unauthorized
because you're not supposed to have images of the coveted club.
I've been in.
I've done a few special events.
All right.
And worth it?
Worth the 30 grand?
I mean, of course.
It's amazing.
There's a full bar.
There's a buffet.
Ooh.
A buffet.
Is it, how close is, how similar is the vibe to the Eyes Wide Shut party?
Oh, it's quite, there's quite a bit of overlap.
Yeah.
Single icy piano key the whole time you're walking in.
Yeah.
Just ding, ding, ding.
Yeah.
A lot of plague doctor masks.
Well, Amanda Lund, what a pleasure having you on the show.
Where can people find you, follow you, hear you, all that good stuff?
Well, thank you for having me.
This was amazing.
I laughed.
I learned.
I loved.
I'm at Amanda Fun Buns on Instagram. If you some cat photos there for you. And then Keys to the Kingdom is out wherever you get your podcasts.
Amazing. And is there something that you learned that you were like, this is so much darker. This goes beyond anything that i expected coming in to keys to the kingdom
i thought you meant on your podcast yeah so like just imagining like the gargoyles
dick was pretty dark for me just a super big gargoyle dick yeah oh my god there's so much
on on keys to the kingdom i like i can't even really pinpoint it, but there's, there's a story about, um, speaking
of shit, actually, one of our anonymous sources has a pretty good story about being dressed
as a pirate and shitting their pants and having to take the ferry with guests to costuming
backstage while they had a underwear filled with,
with shit.
And it was like on their shoes and stuff too.
Cause they had a,
they had a big accident.
Oh no.
Wow.
Maybe this is just a constant thing at Disney.
Like they're right.
They're drawing it out with their weird alchemy of like painted on rivers of
shit. And they're interesting. Amazing. Anyway, check it out, check it out with their weird alchemy of like painted on rivers of shit.
And they're interesting.
Amazing.
Anyway, check it out.
Check it out.
And, you know, even if you're not a super big Disney fan, I think you'll still enjoy hearing about kind of like the workplace minutia of working for like these big corporations.
Pretty interesting.
Amazing.
Is there a work of media that you've been enjoying?
Oh, I wanted to.
Yeah, I have something. So this is if you want to kind of relax and get away from Twitter and Instagram, check out YouTube.
And every morning in my house, we put on an ambient AI generated screensaver.
So if you just YouTube like fall, festive fall screensaver, there will be so many like autumnal scenes with like
rain and a fireplace. And usually there's like a cat or a dog like breathing like really softly
on a big sofa, but they're all AI generated. So then you'll start looking closer and seeing these
like weird things like, oh, why is there just like a pumpkin in a cage, like in the foreground?
things like oh why is there just like a pumpkin in a cage like in the foreground um just really strange stuff that we have went on in our house every single morning and they're really relaxing
and also kind of fun to just scan through and see if you can find like the weird things that
the robots got wrong yeah oh that's a blast yeah people pumpkin in a cage yeah there's a blast. Yeah, people love it. A pumpkin in a cage. What does that imply about that pumpkin?
A pumpkin in a cage.
Because there'll just be like a credenza with like some pottery on it and like some fall pumpkins.
And then you look closer and you're like, why is there just like a pumpkin in like a scary torture cage?
Yeah.
Oh, no.
But from a distance, you wouldn't even think twice.
Maybe it's Cinderella's like carriage.
Was that?
Oh, the impounded?
Yeah.
Did that carriage kind of operate on its own
or it came with horses? Oh, no.
The mice got turned into
horses and then
someone got turned into a driver.
Yeah, that's right.
So you wouldn't need to cage that pumpkin
when it was
asleep, when it was just in pumpkin form.
Because even if it got turned back, it would just get wheels and probably not go anywhere.
And doors.
And be whimsical.
All right.
Well, that theory is out the door.
But, you know, we'll solve it one of these days.
AI is so good at its job.
Well, amazing.
Thank you so much for being on, Amanda.
Oh, thanks, guys.
Miles, where can people find you?
