As is this show, apparently, from our five-star review here, coming from C-H-W-H-1023, who writes helpful and informative. Well, you know, usersnames or usernames, right? You know, you want to be CHW. They added an H. They're the 1,023rd version of it. Who knows? All right. Helpful and informative. of Sam and Brian's interviews and conversations helped prepare me for what to expect and how to make the most of my first Disney cruise. I appreciate you both. These three cruises in, I am still listening and learning. Well, 30 cruises in, we're still learning. So, yeah.

1:07.6

1:11.8

There you go.

1:13.2

They don't. Yeah. They don't. You have to look at the, that's why so many people start getting off, even when the elevator doesn't reach their floor, because they're not paying attention because you have to look up at the little screen thing or look out.
