Hello, everyone, and welcome to Decoding TV, a podcast about television.

I'm David Chen, joining me today, as usual.

He's Patrick Klepp.

Patrick, I think you're about to head out on vacation for a couple weeks.

Is that correct?

I'm about to, you know, I've been training for the last two years, David, to learn how to fly a plane

because I figured it was a sufficient way to get my family from Chicago to London and Paris. So very ambitious, but yeah, we're going to London and Paris for a... You're the Tom Cruise of video game podcasts. Yes, yes. You like to learn how to fly in new vehicles. Now, I have to admit, it was all in, um, uh, what was the, what was Nintendo's, uh,

pilot, pilot, pilot wings, pilot wings. Wow. Remote seven chip. It's very advanced. I feel like

it's going to simulate the, the act of flying. I watched some TikToks. So I think all that together.

I was more of a Star Fox guy myself. Sure.

That's how I learned how to fly.

The physics simulation in Star Fox was a little more. I should just go to space instead. That would be much quicker. Just go up and around and make it there. But yeah, we're, it's a trip. We've been planning for a couple of years and we're taking our kids and Wow. So, handing out on Thursday evening, going to London for a couple of days, mostly just

because we thought it'd be easiest to, it's a direct flight.

They didn't want to do any sort of layovers with the kids, figured an eight-hour flight

is an ask enough.

And they'll spend a couple days in London where there's no language barrier.

And they were taking a train, was it your train, I think, to from London to Paris, which

has a stop in front of Disneyland Paris, which my kids don't know about.

Don't listen to decoding TV children.

If you are, the earmuffs.

Jesus.

Spoiling the trip.
