Hello!

And welcome to very amusing, your one-stop shop for the story, secrets, and shenanigans of a popcorn-fueled theme park journalist. I'm Curley-Baisal and I just walked in the door from buying jeans. Now, if you know me at all, if you listen to this podcast, you know that that is a double header of things that should be shocking you. One, I bought jeans. I have been putting off buying jeans for no joke a year and a half. I just kind of like let

things come to me. I don't like to actually go out and buy them. A friend of mine recently was like,

she asked about something I was wearing and I was like, oh, it was for sale in like spring of 2007.

And then it was never sold again, just these random, random stories about how I've amassed random

objects and things that I wear. And she was basically like, why don't I feel like everything you own is a story like that? And that is exactly what happened today. Two brands that I like were collaborating, and I was like, I got to get those jeans. So I went out, bought jeans. They fit perfectly, which never happens. And now I'm back. And I immediately walked in and was like I'm recording the second

I walk in the door because usually I'll dilly dally I'll go do some stuff and if you have seen

from what I've posted online I am really struggling with staying focused lately it is a big thing

that I'm going to be working on I'm sure we'll talk about it in a future gabstash as well but I'm

really working on staying focused. And I

walked in the house and immediately got on the bike. And I am so proud of myself. Basically,

like, two birds, one stone, maybe like a bird and then a worm and a stone because they're

like different, they're totally different objects. You know what I mean? But anyway, I am so happy

to be here and so happy about this week's podcast because I learned recently as I was making some videos for Instagram, I learned that, oh, I maybe, I maybe don't approach theme parks the way a normal person does.

Most people have a very linear approach to how they book their theme park trips.

And I have a very emotional approach to how they book their theme park trips. And I have a very

emotional approach, which I really can't wait to share with you because, listen, I have been doing

this for a long time. And there's basically like the way I would tell people in a magazine story

to do it. And then there's the way that I'd tell you straight up to do it.

And that is what this week is. This is my actual tips that I would give to a friend who is going,

which all of you are. And so I'm so excited to share them with you. Stick around. We have a really

fun show. So excited to be back after spring break. We have a lot of exciting stuff coming up,
