About This Episode
Weâre going HARD this week: the worldâs largest cruise ship just launched, travel prices to classic sunny spots are sliding, and a freediver holds his breath for 29:03 (yes, really). Plus: a burnt-one buys Thomas our made-up cocktail IRL (âThe Early Check-Inâ) and Chip introduces you to Phillyâs loudest mascot. Weâre 90 days out from Thanksgiving in Paradiseâcome float in WaikÄ«kÄ« with us.
Why hit âPlayâ?
đłïž Worldâs Largest Cruise Ship â Royal Caribbeanâs brand-new Star of the Seas (sister to Icon) is officially sailing; we geek out on its âneighborhoodsâ (Thrill Island, Chill Island, AquaDome, Surfside, Central Park, Royal Promenade & more).
đĄ Our âBetter Neighborhoodsâ â Thrill Island Heights, the Gentrified Pop Deck, Little Bosnia, the Old Neighborhood, and⊠Bowfinger Corner (someone call Steve Martin).
đč Fan-Made Cocktail â A listener hand-delivers âThe Early Check-Inâ (pineapple mimosa + room-key garnish) at a Hollywood bar.
đ„ Philly Elmo â A roaming drumline + full Elmo suit = street-party branding masterclass.
đ Travel Deals Are Back â Year-over-year prices are down to Las Vegas, Orlando & HawaiÊ»iâperfect timing for your WaikÄ«kÄ« plan.
đ Good Book Time (Guinness) â Longest voluntarily held breath underwater: 29:03 (with an oxygen pre-breath). Unassisted mark: 11:35.
đ„ Literal Burnt One â Juggles three flaming torches for 5:02 on a Florida beach and nails two more records the same day (one-arm dead-hang juggling; 11 one-up back somersaults).
đ Buffett âFactsâ â The bit returns: gills, tides, and island physics.
đŠ 90-Day Countdown â Thanksgiving in Paradise (Nov 26, Blue Note WaikÄ«kÄ«). Buy from our site/Blue Note (skip third-party markups).
Hit play for SPF-level escapism: mega-ships, mini-ships (our genius âStar on the Seaâ idea), and Good-Book chaos youâll quote at the tiki bar.
