| 0:00.0 | I have one moment, and this is not like a big memory, but just sitting on Castaway and I'm in the chair like further up from the beach. And my kids are just in the water playing. And it's just like this moment where you're just like, this is beautiful. And you feel you didn't bring the chairs to the beach. I don't got to worry about where the sand's getting. I don't got to like, it's that feeling that it gives the parents of like safety and memories without that stress that always happens. |
| 0:33.8 | Welcome back everybody to this week's episode of the DCL duo podcast brought to you by my path unwinding travel. And Sam, I'm going to skip all the normal pleasantries. I'm throwing it right over to you. We got a great guest. We got a great guest. That's all. |
| 0:46.1 | We have, like, such a amazing show for our listeners today. We have a Disney. I'm going to call her a Disney celebrity. She's |
| 0:54.9 | specifically a run Disney celebrity, but a Disney celebrity in our minds. I'm fan-girling |
| 1:00.0 | here quite a bit. We've got with us a legendary Carissa Galloway. She is a race announcer, a registered |
| 1:06.9 | dietitian, a public published author, a podcast, a TV host, of course, a mom, |
| 1:13.0 | but we all know her as really the face of Run Disney announcing. |
| 1:18.5 | If you ran any Run Disney race in like the last, I don't know, like 20 years or so, |
| 1:23.7 | you would have seen Carissa on the podium announcing the race before, during, after the race, |
| 1:31.9 | at all of the expos for Run Disney weekends, both on the East Coast and on the West Coast. |
| 1:38.1 | And of course, she also is a race announcer for Iron Man races. |
| 1:42.0 | So if you are a triathlet or do any of those Ironman races, you would have seen her. But you announced races all over the country, Carissa. I can't believe you're here on our show today. But welcome to the DCL Duo podcast. Thank you. I mean, anybody that's like a cruise fan knows, like you just want to talk about you. me talk about cruising life that's talk about cruising like i'm not an expert but i you know would |
| 2:03.9 | like to be more of an expert. But we love it. But thank you for that very kind introduction. I just love truly all things Disney. Yeah, you just mentioned that you were just at Magic Kingdom today checking out Buzz Light Year because it just |
| 2:17.8 | reopened with all the new stuff in it. Yeah, we didn't intend to go to check out Buzz |
| 2:22.2 | it. It was just my son had a half day and he's in a Magic Kingdom phase. And then we saw that it was |
| 2:27.0 | open. And so we had to check it out. And I need some practice. It is, you know, apparently can get over |
| 2:33.2 | a million. I barely got over 100,000. So a little |
| 2:37.0 | embarrassed. I'm the same way. I'm not, not good at Buzz Light Year at all. Brian's decent at it, |
| 2:43.7 | but neither of us are experts. I've never hit Galactic Hero. I much prefer Toy Story Midway |
| 2:48.3 | Mania. Yeah, me too. But Weston is a Galact, does hit Galactic hero and he only got like 400,000 this time. |
| 2:54.6 | So it was definitely like he's gotten a sticker from the stores that level. |
| 2:59.6 | And it's funny, we let Weston sit by himself and then Elliot and I will ride together so he can focus. |
