Love Nicks shirt!!!!

Nick, my wife says you have the best voice to fall asleep to. Can you do a Disney sleep story please..😂😂

[@chlotoni1714]

From the UK and the new Genie system is rough. You can’t rebook if outside of the US. We save for 2+ years to visit with no other vacations/ holidays and it feels really unfair. We drop A LOT of money on our visits and really hope it’s rolled out to everyone! Fingers crossed!

[@yourideordie]

Will never get tired of the intros ♥️ It’s just always a good time here, loved the episode!

[@Summergirl_79]

NICK!!!! I lost my mind when I saw your shirt!!! I saw the !!! and the Disney icons and I NEED IT!!! It even has the OG MGM icon ❤❤❤❤ oh my heart!

[@Summergirl_79]

FOUND IT! Guys, lost bros! lostbrostradingco

[@dorothyquintin3151]

Thanks to the drop on Hagrid I wasn't completely caught off guard that a track can do that. So when we went to Busch Gardens Williamsburg I had the realization of what was going to happen right before the track dropped out on Verbolten. 😮‍💨😅

[@giggletriplets723]

I look forward to this podcast every monday morning! We are from PA and just got home from WDW. Tim -we saw you at Tiana’s on opening day! It was one of the highlights of our trip 😊 we had the best week 🎉 Thank you both for keeping us all Up to date and sharing the disney love!

[@JourneywithJLove]

I agree! Ice skating and the holidays do go hand in hand! I felt it was interesting to hear Floridians feel that way too, I didn’t expect that. it is a popular winter pastime in the northern states.

[@debragundlach1749]

Y'all are very entertaining as Podcasters and I continue to enjoy each one one you have done. The two of you together truly fit as a team, and I also enjoy when you are in the vlogs together. Your combined knowledge and age difference are able to connect w a wide audience, I believe. Huge fan,Debra ♡

[@PurdueAlum01]

I really enjoy Tim and Nick together and I also really enjoy Tim and Adam the Woo together but for the life of me I can NOT imagine Nick and Adam the Woo together, not for a second. Am sure they have met thru Tim, curious if they are on any vlog together yet... maybe someday it will happen and I will see what that's like... just... cant... imagine.

[@samuel_soo]

If you want to do a longer cruise there's always the trans-pacific cruise to or from Australia!

[@jeffcollister3837]

When I was young we’d ride the Tilt-a-Whirl at the Boardwalk in Santa Cruz, CA. We called them “Barf-O-Matic Mailboxes!

[@megmayo]

My kid is 16, and they still do the eat every day/never eat a day thing! Pancake hint (because we went through that too) - cook up a batch and freeze individually or in small stacks. Microwave a minute or so, and they are just like fresh!

[@Lifeandtimeswithcyndi]

Love starting my Monday mornings out listening to you two!

[@sferrugia]

We were at Cabana Bay this weekend and went to Volcano Bay! Try to get a cabana it makes all the difference in the world!!!

[@PatrickCriscuola-e7b]

Yeehaw junction has a hidden gem (very similar to Fort Wilderness), which is Westgate River Ranch & Rodeo. Tim and Jen have been there before, which is why we ended up going during covid. We've been about 10 times, love it. Nick you and the family will love it. For Tim and everyone, you can rent an RV (also bring your golf cart if you want) through River Ranch (Not through Westgate).

[@SoxCat123]

Hey Tim, why don't you ever mention Oliver? It's always about Jackson.

[@PurdueAlum01]

Good point I bet there are plenty of Hi dad soup moments with "the baby" it's just that Jackson is super interactive these days and Tim has fun watching how his mind works. But yes, pick a baby moment they count too.

[@codypollard]

Probably because Oliver is the 2nd child so all of the moments that happen with Oliver, had already have happened when Jackson was that age. He usually mentions his hi dad soup moments of learning experiences he’s have as a dad. Tim has not had a 4/5 year old before so he’s learning with Jackson.

[@thedroesslers]

The Magic was our 1st cruise ship we sailed and love it. There is something “magic” or classic about it that we enjoy. We recently sailed on the Dream and they had the churro waffles on a sea day.

[@barbarazani5242]

The boys are back together!

[@Amy-yh8kf]

Went on the Dream(in 2021) & on the Wish(in 2023) and we LOVE the Rain Forest room! Personally, we preferred the one on the Wish than the one on the Dream since it has the outdoor area, which is absolutely beautiful! I wouldn't do the length of cruise package, but the 1 day pass is good.

[@rebeccacronan]

I love the Magic and The Wonder disney cruises. We just got back from Alaska on The Wonder. We have done The Magic and the Wonder out of Galveston. I just love the small ships because there is less crowds and less walking!

[@chickyyraej]

Nick’s shirt 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@PatrickCriscuola-e7b]

Flea World was just in the news. I think they were talking about finally selling the land and getting proposals for building. Could be wrong, but they were talking about it. Can't miss the name Flea World. lol

[@shdwbxrtree]

I am so sad to hear about the nutella fruit waffle going away from Sleepy Hollow. 😢 It was my go-to breakfast on MK days! Anyway, one thing that I'm interested in seeing from when you visit using the new Lightning Lane system is whether you can modify those advance reservations, or if you could modify them at the park to get a possibly earlier time to make it easier to stack them. Thanks so much for all of you guys' contents - I follow them all, and look forward to them to listen to while I do some cooking/cleaning! I appreciate both of you! ❤️

[@melissalee333]

The fruit waffle at Sleepy Hollow was my favorite! I’m hoping if enough us complain they will bring it back. It was a must get whenever I’m at MK. I make them at home when I need a Disney day.

[@joanne_luvsdisney534]

I’ve been in the Magic twice and both times they have had Churro Mickey waffles….soooo good

[@jenniesecker4034]

Tim- funny you say that about the tilt-a-whirl at Flea World. I used to live near there and took my visiting relatives and we went on that quite a few times. I'm never affected by spinning rides but that one made me feel like I was going to be ill. Thanks for sharing because it may be the ride and not me..hehe😂😂

[@carlygee8866]

I love the magic you are going to love it Nick

[@CJ-hh3gx]

The news intro is my favorite thing.

[@ashleykeleher3590]

Nick obsessed with your shirt!!

[@heidilewis6314]

Went to Epcots After Hours party June 6th and was able to ride Guardians 3X’s in row…..couldn’t believe none of us got sick. After the 3rd time though we decided to go on something else.

[@PatrickCriscuola-e7b]

Agree. Waffles 1 (they can hold the butter the best), pancakes 2 (absorb the butter and can be topped however. french toast, i can live without, they are good, but if I have the other two I'm good.

[@SuzanneA618]

I love the traditional ships😍 My favorite boat so far is the Fantasy❤

[@LinNijoka87]

I went on a 3 night Disney wish cruise and requested churro waffles with my server at dinner and they had them made for us at breakfast the next day. I think they usually have the churro waffles on the longer cruises on all ships.

[@jakegittes1864]

Hope you guys have a good 4th of July!

[@barbehrhart]

I admire people who can parent little kids without caffeine.

[@SuzanneA618]

When the Charlie’s Angels sequel came out we were saw it at Festival Bay. We saw a guy that was breaking into cars in the parking lot get tased by the cops! 😳 That’s my Festival Bay story! 🎉

[@jesleedom3972]

Nick. Love your shirt!

[@skyelynn1980]

Shout out to yeehaw!! And Lakeland love it 🎉

[@hilshandmade]

Can't wait to hear about your cruise!

[@stacybreslin4397]

The Dream has churro Mickey waffles at Cabanas. We had them last year.

[@kfitz8998]

We went the first night to jollywood with my family and it was definitely just not it lol we will absolutely be trying again this year though! The first night of a new event like that is always going to not be great haha so we were left pretty disappointed too

[@TravelwithDana19]

On July 24th Tiana’s is listed as tier 1 on multi pass when it starts.

[@tammyknowles1032]

The band on the shirt would have probably been Pantera

[@Halloween10247]

I love the Taylor swift shirt, Nick!!!

[@juliajones2283]

Always enjoy listening to you both chat together about all this stuff. Hope when we get to WDW in October from the UK the queue for Tianas is not too long as we loved splash. 57:02

[@omnicognatesnr5947]

Easy to book outside the US, just use a VPN and set it to the US. Had to do that for a lot of special events booked through the Disney website. Seems odd to me that the US still uses travel agents.

[@teacherdreamsofdisneylife8303]

So here’s my quandary with the ride selection system changing July 24th. I’m a Passholder from Pensacola, Florida headed for a trip July 20th & staying at Pop.I will be there until the 28th. I have no idea how this will affect my trip. I will use Genie Plus for the 1st couple of days if the parks are really busy. I don’t know if I will be able to begin purchasing & booking 7 days prior to the 24th for the new system. Or, will I not be able to purchase & utilize until that morning? I never thought I’d say I will miss Genie Plus. Starting all over with a new system when there’s no videos of it to watch before my trip to understand how it works is stressful. I felt like a Genie Pro. RIP Genie Plus. Maybe I should take this learning opportunity to make my own informational video of the revised system.

[@staceyclifford8754]

Nick, where can I get your t-shirt?! ❤

[@mystikhrs476]

Fun shirt swiftly!

[@teresafreiermuth9347]

I love your TS shirt nick! Where did you get it?!?

[@Amy-yh8kf]

Kids are like that🤣they will eat something for EVERY meal & then be like NOPE I don't like that! Don't take it personally fellas! It's part of being a parent...just be patient with the kiddos & it will pass(hopefully).

[@markieleehayes]

Some people are getting extra DAS family members on a pass IF it’s extra minor children, but that’s up to the approval of the person you speak to. This is where a lot of people used to abuse the system and bring parties of 15+.

[@AVelez923]

Fun fact McLaren calls their orange color Papaya.

[@amy_soucy]

So you are on a 7 day cruise before your disney resort vacation and you have to book your LL on your travel day?

[@drj2171]

The Knack also had Good Girls Don’t. Not nearly as popular as My Sharona. 😎😜

[@MommyNancy1979]

For this new pass system... is it like old FP where I can keep booking Pirates? Or like the newer system where I ride pirates once and I can't select it again? Please do a video after that July date for some clarification. Love your videos, both of you together and separate ❤

[@miriamkushel4032]

Unfortunately, no. You can see my get a LL for each ride once.

[@miriamkushel4032]

I believe that Flight of Passage WILL be a Single Pass LL purchase still, not part of Multi-Pass.

[@shaunaleaton6909]

What if a ride gets shut down for work or weather. how will that work?

[@traceyhill7784]

The new Genie plus system does not work for international visitors and annoyingly we booked through Disney so effectively they are our TA! 😢 croissants are french btw not regular in the UK lol

[@traceyhill7784]

Lot's of UK visitors are discussing the Genie change issue on social media and messaging Disney.

[@HailB3]

Nick, where is your shirt from!?

[@Drflamerock]

Don't get spoilt before riding Hagrid's.......I'm going to spoilt it for you now 😅

[@ellakehoe3823]

Nick that shirt is incredible! Where do I get one!?

[@lisaferchland5326]

Shrek used to be on Royal Caribbean

[@gnux]

LEELOO DALLAS MULTIPASS

[@janehynes8319]

Does Undercover Turist have a KZbin channel?

[@lindsaycollins2719]

nick where did you buy your shirt??

[@hilshandmade]

All the ships have churro mickey waffles at least one day

[@librajenn80]

Nick I want that shirt!! Where did you get it??

[@crystalmckenney5406]

So is the new lighting lane option at no cost?

[@Nimeariel]

No, you will still have to pay for it. But it's gone back to a similar (but not the same) layout as the FREE Fastpass+ system before 2020.

[@Yettiebug]

No Hi Dad Soup??

[@lindseysolodiuk4618]

I'm with Nick - I will not willingly stand in something that is designed to have the floor fall out from under you - that's a big NO THANK YOU!

[@amy_soucy]

So, Jackson is just 19 inches shorter than me!

[@AngelS-br3vv]

Like this podcast but I feel like Tim doesn’t get to talk enough
