Disney Fastpass for Planes (Day 3389 - 3/6/19)

Previous Vlog (Day 3388) | Next Vlog (Day 3390)

The vlog starts out at Lunch Bunch with Austin, Roland, Dan, and Jarrett. Stephen shows a plate with a piece of toast and Jarrett jokingly says that they have just been eating bread this whole time. Stephen says that he was going to say that everyone got their own loaf of bread and that was the last piece left. Stephen mentioned that Lindsey wasn't able to make it to Lunch Bunch, but their server's name was Lindsey so it was like Lindsey was at Lunch Bunch the whole time.

The group then talks about how the number of topics that they have conversations about has increased. They talk about how their conversations during college were about games like Mario Party and now they also talk about topics like real estate, loans, and etc. Jarrett sarcastically says that they can combine those 2 topics and talk about how big of a loan you can take out to buy a house that can fit all the Nintendo games. Stephen says that at first he thought "If your asking that question then you're doing something wrong", but then he thought "You just attacked me! I feel attacked!" (since Stephen collects video games). He does agree that they do need a bigger house to fit all the Nintendo games in.

Stephen and Mallory return home. He then talks about the salsa that Mal is eating. Stephen says that it looks like Mal is just eating the salsa off the spoon since the Parmesan crisp she is spooning the salsa onto is so small. He says that the Kirkland Organic Salsa from Costco is very cheap and delicious. Stephen says that it might be some of the best salsa they have ever had. He mentions that they were buying a lot of chips and salsa to have as a snack and they took a break from having them as snacks. Stephen's parents knew that they really liked that brand of salsa, so they decided to get some and try it. He said that his parents said that it was so spicy that they couldn't stand it. Stephen was confused because even Mal liked the salsa when they had it previously, and her tolerance for spicy foods is lower than his parents. He said that he took the jar of salsa that his parents already opened and a second jar since the salsa comes in a pack of 2. Stephen said that they definitely changed the recipe because it tastes spicier.

Stephen says that he has had salsa that is really bad before. He said that he assumes that it is really easy to mess up salsa. Stephen said that they have tried different brands of salsa like Publix, Walmart, and Pace Salsa. He says that they originally assumed that the different taste was just from that specific batch of salsa. However, Mal looked it up online and found a Reddit post where someone was asking if they changed the recipe for the Kirkland Organic Salsa and a lot of people said that it tastes spicier. Mal also mentions that the reviews for the salsa were very inconsistent as one reviewer mentioned that the salsa only tasted like cumin. Stephen said that he was sad because now he can't recommend the salsa to anyone because it tastes different from what they had before.

The video then transitions to the office where Sagan came up to see Stephen and Stephen pets him. Stephen says that he is getting some work done in preparation for their trip at the beginning of April. He said that tomorrow they have to go out of town in the evening because they have to be at airport in Charlotte to meet with people to get the "Disney Fast Pass for Planes". Stephen says that he can't remember the name of it and asks Mal what the "Disney Fast Pass for Planes" is called. Mal replies that it's called global entry. Stephen compares it to TSA pre-check, but that it costs almost nothing more and extends to international. Mal comments that Stephen really has no idea what global entry is. Stephen says "No I don't! Mal I call it Disney fast pass! Of course I don't know what it is!" Mal says that when they were coming back from Canada with all the equipment, they realized that they often fly with a lot of equipment. Stephen said that it was a special circumstance since they had a Wii and like 18 controllers.

Mal mentions that Lindsey has TSA pre-check and she was trying to convince them to get it. Mal said that she looked it up and found that they could easily get TSA pre-check since they just had to go somewhere in Myrtle Beach and get their fingerprint taken. She then found that global entry didn't cost that much more than the TSA pre-check and the only difference from the TSA pre-check that affected them was being able to go into the country through customs more easily. Stephen also mentions that global entry also includes TSA pre-check and it lasts for a couple of years. He then says that after Breakfast Stream tomorrow they will leave for Charlotte. Stephen says that it has been a long time since they have been there and that he is planning to go to some game stores. He then talks about how both he and Mal have been very productive today in making content to be released while they are on their trip. Stephen mentions that he is looking forward to talking more about the details of the trip eventually.
