We're talking Guinness Book of World Records, the Good Book. We've got some delectable vacation rolls, and we're going to wrap it all up with some buffet facts. **Chip** (00:01:19:03 - 00:01:22:16): Chip buffet facts for everyone.

If you think those two things should go together. Stay down. Front desk. **Chip** (00:01:34:07 - 00:01:42:15): Hi, this is Mr. Chantry in room 308. I'm calling from the lounge phone. I'm going to need another room key card. I met another lady friend that I'd like to share the room with. **Thomas** (00:01:42:19 - 00:01:47:23): Mr. Chantry, did you lose another key card in the water slide again? **Chip** (00:01:48:01 - 00:01:49:18): That corkscrew is a real doozy. **Thomas** (00:01:49:18 - 00:01:52:02): We'll have another pair of room keys sent to the lobby. **Chip** (00:01:52:04 - 00:01:55:00): Champ Thomas. **Thomas** (00:01:55:02 - 00:02:05:03): It is episode 38 of the sunburn podcast. I can't believe I'm saying this. We are 20 days away from Chip Chantry. Is Thanksgiving in Paradise? **Chip** (00:02:05:03 - 00:02:27:20): It's. Yeah. I mean, three weeks. We're going to be there. It's wild. Episode 3838 special. This is the special. We're going to be here and it's going to be very special in Hawaii. Man, I like I we we just keep calling forward. But it's like it's like here, it's almost here. It's ready to go. I'm so excited to be with the, wonderful people of Honolulu and, to my new hour. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:02:28:12 - 00:02:45:07): Bring some comedy to the islands, baby. I think, I think that is a noble cause. And, yeah, I don't know. It's been such a journey, man. I remember when we hit triple digits away, I was really excited. We were looking at getting on a plane and going there within three weeks. Dude. **Chip** (00:02:45:08 - 00:02:45:19): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:02:45:21 - 00:02:48:01): The American calendar weeks. **Chip** (00:02:48:03 - 00:03:13:11): My wife and I just, booked our hotel for Los Angeles. We're flying to LA. You could spend the weekend there, then head out to the the islands and, yeah, I just again, it's like it's I you were so excited about it, and I'm kind of excited for you, but also for me because I've never been. So it's just like it's now really getting real, like, oh, we're I'm doing this, this place that I've always wanted to go to my entire life. It's going to become a reality. **Thomas** (00:03:14:17 - 00:03:24:03): Yeah, it's going to be so fun. I'm really excited about it. But I'm also like, you know, a little proud that we had this idea and we followed through and it's actually happening. **Chip** (00:03:24:03 - 00:03:37:02): Most podcasts just just dip after episode 12 and they're just like, we're not doing this anymore. Two guys in a basement, and we're like, no, we're going to take this across the globe and share the good work. **Thomas** (00:03:37:02 - 00:03:39:12): Are you saying most podcasts are all talk? **Chip** (00:03:39:14 - 00:03:44:09): Most podcasts are all talk. We are talk with a little bit of pantomime as well. **Thomas** (00:03:44:09 - 00:03:50:20): And not only are we more than talk, we are going across an ocean to talk, talk, talk. **Chip** (00:03:50:20 - 00:03:52:07): Some more. We are. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:03:52:10 - 00:03:56:21): Give us the hottest pitch for Tantric Thanksgiving in Paradise. **Chip** (00:03:56:21 - 00:04:20:01): You're going to be in Honolulu. I think we're at the point now where I don't know if anybody's going to buy tickets to come. Two plane tickets to get and decide that they're going to. Maybe there are. Maybe there's that last minute person that does they're like, I don't have any plans for Hawaii or like, you know, for for Thanksgiving this year, come away with us, like just grab a plate right now, go online, American Airlines, Expedia, wherever you go, get your ticket, boom. Fly it out, get it, book a room. But let's just say you're going to be there anyway. Here's the thing. It's probably the middle of your vacation. It's a Wednesday night. It's the night before Thanksgiving. You've had the best time, but you're also in a strange land. Come into this club where we're going to make you laugh and just forget about the world. And then come out of the world into the most beautiful location on earth. And, hopefully with a little spring in your step, a little smile. **Thomas** (00:04:55:06 - 00:05:03:02): Doing two shows. November 26th, the Blue Note Hawaii tickets are available at the Blue Note hawaii.com. **Chip** (00:05:03:02 - 00:05:06:11): The hilarious, Kathy Tanaka will be opening the show. **Thomas** (00:05:06:12 - 00:05:29:03): Oh yeah. Announcement here. Who's great, amazing comedian Kathy. And, yeah, you can also go to the sunburn podcast.com, click the little tickets link up at the top and that'll take you to the real deal tickets. There's a lot of resellers out there. Believe it or not, cheap chances. Thanksgiving in Paradise. The premium seats don't start in the four digits. **Chip** (00:05:29:03 - 00:05:34:13): I'd like to think they would, but in reality, they're much more reasonable. **Thomas** (00:05:34:13 - 00:05:38:18): I think the demand could be there. But you're not a gouge or chip now. You're a lover. **Chip** (00:05:38:18 - 00:05:50:15): I'm a lover, not a Gallagher. That's what they say. That's that's. That is what the, tattoo of the bottom of my back says in Mandarin. I'm a lover, not a Gallagher. **Thomas** (00:05:50:17 - 00:05:57:03): It is a, a great philosophy to live by in prison. Great philosophy to live by in the standup comedy world. **Chip** (00:05:57:05 - 00:05:58:19): Any any ticket reseller world. **Thomas** (00:05:58:19 - 00:06:05:05): I'm also so excited because I'm freezing my buns off over here. Chip, the weather has turned. **Chip** (00:06:05:06 - 00:06:21:15): You started out with a jacket on before we started recording. I'm literally wearing my, my shirt with some, long underwear underneath because it is, it's a little chilly here right now, and I can't wait to get into that. Beautiful tropical water. **Thomas** (00:06:21:18 - 00:06:40:16): I always hope for this before the, the Hawaii move. Like, I live in Los Angeles. And if it is warm when you're getting ready to go on the plane, like, if it's 80 degrees in LA and you get on a plane to Hawaii and it's 81 degrees, there is a little bit of a feeling of like, what am I doing? 00:06:40:18 – 00:06:41:16 UNRESOLVED – What. Why am I doing this? But, yeah, it's already I mean, it's chilly dough. We've had some chili, chili morning, some chili chili nights, some chili chili afternoons. If you wanted to put this weather on a dog, it would be a chili dog. **Chip** (00:06:57:16 - 00:07:00:13): It would be a chili dog. **Thomas** (00:07:00:15 - 00:07:12:11): Oh, and also, going back to your point about, are people still going to come out, this late specifically for a comedy show? Maybe not specifically for a comedy show. I would like to think they would. But I will. **Chip** (00:07:12:11 - 00:07:29:03): Say, even just like for a last minute vacation, you're just like, oh man, I'm getting stressed out. It's getting colder to treat yourself. Go out, get a ticket, come out to Hawaii for the week. Just like make it a life thing. Be like, I just decided that in three weeks I'm going to go Hawaii and then also come see my show at the Blue Note. **Thomas** (00:07:29:05 - 00:07:50:10): I will say the first time I went to Hawaii for Thanksgiving, I had probably this far out. I hadn't even thought about it. Like it was truly, the week before, like, let's go. All right. Okay, let's just go. And, it change changed my life for the better. I think it's become a tradition I like to do. And, this year, everybody's invited. Chips coming. My family's coming. It's going to be a lot of fun. You should head on out. It's three weeks away. And if you're already going to be in Honolulu, or if you know somebody that's going to Hawaii for Thanksgiving, pass it along. We be grateful. They're incredibly tough to reach people who are going to be in a certain place at a certain time. Right. Comedy show message. **Chip** (00:08:13:21 - 00:08:21:08): It's like a quarterback. You don't throw the ball to where the wide receiver is. You throw the ball to where the wide receiver is going to be. **Thomas** (00:08:21:14 - 00:08:26:20): Yeah, but and the quarterback has the ability to call a play beforehand where everybody huddled up. **Chip** (00:08:26:21 - 00:08:35:10): There just thousands and thousands of wide receivers out there going in every direction. We don't know which ones are going to end up in front of the Blue Note. **Thomas** (00:08:35:10 - 00:08:44:07): That being said, really surprised at how many tickets have moved. Yeah, there's just something inspiring. A little stand up comedy. Thanksgiving and. **Chip** (00:08:44:09 - 00:08:44:15): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:08:44:20 - 00:08:47:07): And Waikiki Thanksgiving and Honolulu. **Chip** (00:08:47:07 - 00:08:48:06): Something in the air. **Thomas** (00:08:48:07 - 00:08:53:20): Dude. I'm excited. So get your tickets now. If you're going to be there, let people know about it. We'd be really appreciative. **Chip** (00:08:53:21 - 00:09:04:21): Let us know if you're coming. Drop us a line. Hit us up. On our socials, make comments here in YouTube or wherever it is. And, and let us know your comment will and we will look out for it. We will keep a seat for you. **Thomas** (00:09:04:23 - 00:09:13:11): Yeah, well, we'll get some burnt hangings going on. It'll be great. Yeah. Well, speaking. I mean, all this Hawaii talk has me thirsty for a little slather. **Chip** (00:09:13:13 - 00:09:38:10): Chip, just get a little bit of that sunscreen on right now, even though it is freezing out. And I got my my thermals on, I still got to put a little that slather on to get in that island, feel just started. Smells so good. By the way, Thomas, I did not need sunscreen this week, but I was on a a voyage myself. I was literally the polar opposite of Hawaii. If we're talking about the United States of this America, we are heading to why in just a few weeks. But just last week, I was in, as far away, I'm assuming, as you can get from Hawaii. I was on the coast to Maine. **Thomas** (00:09:55:14 - 00:09:57:11): That's legit. You can't get further away. **Chip** (00:09:57:12 - 00:10:18:11): Northeast in the southwest. I was in a banquet, Maine, at this place called the Cliff House. I gotta give a shout out. It was one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. It's literally a resort on a cliff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on the coast of Maine, in southern Maine. And I was up there for a corporate gig, and I don't know if I should be shouting at that organization or not. They were amazing, though. **Thomas** (00:10:19:08 - 00:10:23:15): Was it the people trying to overturn the Epstein list. **Chip** (00:10:23:16 - 00:10:40:08): Reveal that is to be revealed? Okay, that is to be revealed. I can't say too much, Thomas. I can't say too much. But, hey, maybe it maybe it will be. Maybe. Or maybe it was an insurance company. One of the two. All right. I did send you a video because I couldn't just send you a photo. A video of the suite that they put me up in. So it's like I'm a vacation guy now. Like, that's the thing. It's like, I feel like I'm a little bit more of a connoisseur after doing this podcast with you of, like, keeping an eye out for, obviously travel for stand up. Yeah. And, and and for fun. But it was I was just expecting this nice little room. I was like, oh, I'm not going to be seaside. Like, I'm just the entertainment. I'm going to be like in a basement room that maybe has a window overlooking the parking lot. You know, something like that. Yeah. And I was in a suite, literally a suite on the fifth floor on top of a cliff overlooking the ocean. Not one, but three connecting balconies. Yeah, we're out there just overlooking the coast. I love the coast. To me too. I grew up going there. We, my wife and I try to go. I was just up in Portland a few months ago, and, this place was just wild, like the height of just everything. Here's how fancy was Thomas. There was no ironing board in the room. I looked. I needed to iron my shirt for the performance. **Thomas** (00:11:42:04 - 00:11:42:17): **Chip** (00:11:42:19 - 00:11:47:03): I couldn't find the ironing board. I was literally about to call the front desk. Like our little bits. **Thomas** (00:11:47:03 - 00:11:48:02): Yeah. **Chip** (00:11:48:04 - 00:11:53:23): And then I realized they had a steamer. They had a steamer for me. You know, that's the height of luxury, right there. **Thomas** (00:11:54:02 - 00:11:55:09): I mean, I love a little steamer. **Chip** (00:11:55:13 - 00:12:00:18): You're not pressing iron to iron. You are steaming things up when you got some money. **Thomas** (00:12:00:20 - 00:12:22:03): Just letting the magic happen. Dude, now, you told me about this place. Yeah. And I was like, that sounds really nice. And then you sent me a couple of pics and some videos, and it's just like you're not blowing smoke. Like, yeah, I can't even imagine how much that room cost. I don't know the area that well or whatever, but it's like they they gave you the Kings Room. **Chip** (00:12:22:04 - 00:12:23:09): Yes, they did. **Thomas** (00:12:23:11 - 00:12:24:04): Like I. **Chip** (00:12:24:05 - 00:12:24:17): Didn't. **Thomas** (00:12:24:19 - 00:12:27:03): I feel like it was top demands. **Chip** (00:12:27:05 - 00:12:27:18): Yeah, I. **Thomas** (00:12:27:18 - 00:12:50:13): Feel like it was the top floor and it was like a three full, like room with balconies along with the rooms on the inside of your hotel room to justify said balconies. It's not like there was a corner where it was kind of like making one room. Two. It was three rooms and three balconies along just straight ocean front. **Chip** (00:12:50:15 - 00:12:51:02): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:12:51:04 - 00:13:01:11): Really, really impressive ship. It's just, one of the perks of doing these big corporate gigs sometimes is you get, big corporate benefits. **Chip** (00:13:01:11 - 00:13:21:13): Yeah. And I will say that the whole time I'm trying to enjoy it, but, like, I get it. And literally I was there for a quick turnaround. I got there Wednesday afternoon, did the show Wednesday night, had to leave Thursday morning. So it wasn't like spending a week there. But, usually it's it's those things when you do corporate shows like this, it's the nicer the setup. **Thomas** (00:13:21:15 - 00:13:22:04): Yeah, the. **Chip** (00:13:22:10 - 00:13:37:23): Worse the show. Yeah. You're just like, it just I just kept looking around this room and how great I was like, oh, this show is going to be a disaster because it's just way too fancy. And this is not going to go well at all. And it actually went it went well. It was it was fun. They were really nice group. But it was better. But my favorite, one of my favorite things they did was when they when I check in to give me my room, the woman presents me with this, like, rope bracelet. Like. **Thomas** (00:13:50:10 - 00:13:51:00): Oh, yeah, like. **Chip** (00:13:51:00 - 00:14:08:12): A friends at camp. Or, you know, it's like I'm at, like 1992, the horde festival, you know? But she's like, here's the. And I was like, oh, like a friendship bracelet. Basically with this little cork thing on it. And it was like, thanks, I guess. And she's like, oh, that's your room key. And she's like, it's waterproof. You can swim with it, you can do whatever. And so you just walked around, you had your little bracelet and you just, zapped in on the, the room. It was a it's pretty fun. **Thomas** (00:14:16:17 - 00:14:17:19): It's the future, buddy. **Chip** (00:14:17:20 - 00:14:22:15): We are in the future. Speaking of the future, should we, do you want to transport a little bit? **Thomas** (00:14:22:15 - 00:14:43:05): Thomas, I think we should transport. So the world's been a little wild recently. We, We're just always combing through the news looking for interesting and positive travel and vacation news that we can come yak it up with. And it's just been a little bleak lately. **Chip** (00:14:43:08 - 00:14:44:00): So bleak. **Thomas** (00:14:44:00 - 00:15:02:10): So this week, we decided to take our minds out of the present, which can be a little sticky. Yeah, and throw it into the future to discuss with you guys what, you know, quite possibly could be the future of travel and vacations. **Chip** (00:15:02:13 - 00:15:09:02): So what I did, I went on, I'm, I'm trying to embrace a little bit more. I went on to I yeah. **Thomas** (00:15:09:02 - 00:15:10:23): How everybody's talking about it. You go on to the. **Chip** (00:15:10:23 - 00:15:23:21): I, I fired up the AI machine, drove it, took it, took it in the trailer to the gas station, filled it up with gasoline, changed the oil. **Thomas** (00:15:23:21 - 00:15:25:16): Aspirated the engine, primed. **Chip** (00:15:25:16 - 00:15:33:03): It a couple of times. And then just after a couple of Yanks on that ripcord, that AI machine powered up. **Thomas** (00:15:33:05 - 00:15:35:01): I love it when it sputters to life trip. **Chip** (00:15:35:02 - 00:15:41:18): It just it came right up there was white and kind of greenish smoke plumes all over it comedically. **Thomas** (00:15:41:20 - 00:15:43:08): It's very Wizard of Oz. **Chip** (00:15:43:08 - 00:15:55:13): It really is. It really is, a pretty lady in a bubble descended. Oh, and, granted me not only a pair of, very dazzling shoes. **Thomas** (00:15:55:18 - 00:15:56:18): Okay. **Chip** (00:15:56:20 - 00:16:05:08): But some ideas of what vacations are going to be like in the year 2045, 20, 2045. **Thomas** (00:16:05:08 - 00:16:19:18): So we got 20 years to get from point A to point B there in the future. And this is what ChatGPT is saying vacations will possibly be like in the year 2045. What an awesome idea. Yep. Continue. **Chip** (00:16:19:19 - 00:16:42:16): Now when you look back, here's what I'm thinking. And then let's actually go back a little bit. Yeah. Okay. If you know anything about psychology, the paradoxical theory of change. Okay. Paradoxical theory of change says if I can put my psychologist cap on real quickly, please do is in order to change, if you want to change your behavior, change the way you are, you have to acknowledge where you are right now. You have to know what you're like right now in order to understand, okay, change. So let's look at now like vacations right now and vacations 20 years ago in 2005. Have they changed that much? I'm trying to think like I'm trying to think of like a vacation I took in 2005. Right. And what it looks like now, I'm not seeing a big change. I guess maybe like in the planning of it, there's more. The internet obviously is more robust and you can make reservations ahead of time online a little bit more. You could do that in 2005 a little bit. But like yeah, like maybe that's the thing. Even with social media, you can check out there. You know, if you go to a resort or a certain town, like you can look up different restaurants, different attractions, maybe more. So I think kind of in the, the planning of it. And, and I will say maybe transportation like you have you have Uber now and Lyft where you didn't have that in 2005. **Thomas** (00:17:40:12 - 00:17:40:20): Yeah. **Chip** (00:17:41:02 - 00:17:47:23): I remember my first, my first Uber ride was in San Francisco in 2014. **Thomas** (00:17:48:00 - 00:17:48:08): It's a good. **Chip** (00:17:48:08 - 00:18:07:23): Memory. We were in all we're like, wait on our phone. We're just going to push this button. A man will show up and drive us somewhere. And he did. Yeah. I will say ChatGPT is very ambitious as to what he or she thinks. Haven't decided gender jet GPT just yet. **Thomas** (00:18:08:00 - 00:18:09:03): I think it appreciates that. **Chip** (00:18:09:03 - 00:18:18:11): But I don't know what it it's it thinks that 2045 is going to be the future that we saw in TV shows like in the 1960s and 70s. **Thomas** (00:18:18:11 - 00:18:19:12): I'm excited about that. **Chip** (00:18:19:12 - 00:18:31:14): Where men are walking on the moon, not just not just, you know, Buzz Aldrin and and, Neil Armstrong, you know, but like, you know, Lance Armstrong, for that matter, do you know, maybe Lance Armstrong? **Thomas** (00:18:31:14 - 00:18:33:15): I think Lance Armstrong wanted to go. **Chip** (00:18:33:15 - 00:18:35:08): Maybe he'll be biking on the moon at some point. **Thomas** (00:18:35:08 - 00:18:37:08): I don't know why not last year's. **Chip** (00:18:37:08 - 00:18:53:07): So here are just a couple ideas that they think that vacations in general are going to kind of we're going to kind of have. So all right. Okay. Let me know if you think Thomas, 20 years from now, you would be up for doing entities vacations. **Thomas** (00:18:53:10 - 00:18:54:20): You're going to hear straight from me. **Chip** (00:18:54:22 - 00:19:00:03): The first one we got about ten or so here, eco restoration retreats. **Thomas** (00:19:00:05 - 00:19:01:04): Okay. **Chip** (00:19:01:06 - 00:19:09:16): Okay. So that's basically like you would go out and help restore coral reefs, replant trees in the rainforest. **Thomas** (00:19:09:16 - 00:19:10:09): Yeah. **Chip** (00:19:10:11 - 00:19:18:10): That type of thing. Like, basically they're saying, I think I think that the subtext is the world is on fire. It's going to continue to be on fire. **Thomas** (00:19:18:12 - 00:19:18:19): Yeah. **Chip** (00:19:18:19 - 00:19:26:16): So your vacation is you were going to basically be doing habitat for humanity, but for plants and. **Thomas** (00:19:26:16 - 00:19:52:00): Animals, people are microdosing that idea right now we've covered and like eco friendly retreats before. Yes, we've talked about those. It's a movement that's happening. There's a lot of them in South America, but this is just the next step. It's like when you get to go to some place that's so beautiful like that and has such, you know, a rare balance of wildlife and plants, plant life and all that kind of stuff. There's something that just makes you feel a little good about going out for an afternoon and helping, like a local organization, pick up trash or do some kind of conservation like you can you can do these little things already, but I can fully see a world where somebody takes a trip to go, you know, and not only to spend time, but to have a purpose of, you know, saving those turtles you love so much. Like, I think ChatGPT is right about this, I think is the world continues to burn. There's going to be more and more need for people to go and do good on these trips. **Chip** (00:20:25:22 - 00:20:28:15): I'm for it. I think it's I think it's great. I think it's wonderful. **Thomas** (00:20:28:17 - 00:20:29:05): I like it. **Chip** (00:20:29:05 - 00:20:37:08): Almost the polar opposite. Well, that's here, is there next idea of what's going to happen? Climate controlled resort cities. **Thomas** (00:20:37:08 - 00:20:42:09): This is like Dubai in 20 years is going to need to have a dome that's air conditioned. **Chip** (00:20:42:12 - 00:20:43:20): Absolutely. **Thomas** (00:20:43:20 - 00:20:44:12): That sounds right. **Chip** (00:20:44:12 - 00:20:49:02): You and I are Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin in biodome. **Thomas** (00:20:49:02 - 00:20:50:02): Freeman him out here. **Chip** (00:20:50:03 - 00:21:09:19): I think the first part of that was like an indoor water park. Yeah. Like. All right. Okay. Hey, look what we're doing up in the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania when it's 12 degrees out. And, you know, kids are, going on the old, the old tidal wave, but like, they're talking about full resort centers. Like resorts. Yeah. Where it would just be a whole resort town. That's just basically covered with it, whether it's a dome or whatever it is that is just, because, hey, the climate is going to be unpredictable. Let's create our own climate. **Thomas** (00:21:21:03 - 00:21:25:09): I will argue to a large extent, Vegas is already halfway there. **Chip** (00:21:25:10 - 00:21:25:23): Oh, you think so? **Thomas** (00:21:25:23 - 00:21:32:06): Think about it like you don't need to go outside and Vegas. They have, like the canals. **Chip** (00:21:32:07 - 00:21:33:07): That's true. **Thomas** (00:21:33:09 - 00:21:55:20): Inside. And, I don't know. I've. I've been in Vegas when it's 105, 106 degrees at two in the morning. Geez. So like it is a air conditioned lifestyle and they have blown it out to a big scale. And I mean, you put a couple more bridges a couple more covered bridges, and you can get around that whole place without going outside that. **Chip** (00:21:55:20 - 00:21:56:07): That's true. **Thomas** (00:21:56:11 - 00:22:19:00): It's one of the places where that's already necessary. But I think, you know, it seems like if the trajectory keeps happening, there's going to be more and more places that fit that bill. And a lot of these heavily wealthy, affluent areas are in deserts. So they're just going to keep building and building, and they're going to make things that are more like cooler and cooler for their, their location. Dude. **Chip** (00:22:19:15 - 00:22:31:03): Here's what makes me nervous. All right. Do you ever get to your hotel room? And they're like, aces on the Fritz? And you're like, all right, send a guy up. **Thomas** (00:22:31:05 - 00:22:32:01): **Chip** (00:22:32:03 - 00:22:48:22): Right. Yeah. And you know, Victor comes up or whatever. And he's like, all right, I can fix this. You know, he's like banging around on there and he's like, give it a half hour. It'll, you know, rev it up again and, you know, go and and you're a little uncomfortable. You're like, that's fine. I'll just maybe step out, get some air. What if the air goes on that dome? There's that guy just shows up with his tool belt in a little, little box. You know, just. He's just, like, kicking the side of the dome, like. Hey. All right, I need you to get a new generator, but, let's see what we can do. And then it's just thousands of people inside a dome. Just baking. Baking in the desert sun. **Thomas** (00:23:11:15 - 00:23:15:01): A fridge can become a oven real quick. **Chip** (00:23:15:01 - 00:23:15:15): It really can. **Thomas** (00:23:15:16 - 00:23:23:03): That's a good point. That could be a little dangerous. Yeah, I think it's two for two right now. Okay. I think ChatGPT is really hitting some, some truths. **Chip** (00:23:23:03 - 00:23:29:18): This one, this next one is a little depressing to me. First of all, I know what VR is. I think we know VR is virtual reality. What's AR do you. **Thomas** (00:23:29:18 - 00:23:31:07): Know augmented reality? **Chip** (00:23:31:09 - 00:23:33:06): It. Tell me about what is that. **Thomas** (00:23:33:06 - 00:24:00:13): So augmented reality is like you would put on glasses right. Yeah. And you would see what's really there. But then you could also have like a screen, like a computer screen that's like up in this, the side that's telling you, you know, pointing at things and telling you what is there. It can put, you know, you could have a Chester the cheetah, going around and finding Cheetos, different places. **Chip** (00:24:00:13 - 00:24:12:07): I am shocked. And in all that, the first creature that you came up with was Chester Cheetah. You're just like, hey, you've Cheetos on the mind right now, buddy. **Thomas** (00:24:12:07 - 00:24:14:22): Oh, I would, I would eat a Cheeto just about any time. **Chip** (00:24:15:03 - 00:24:15:21): I mean, it's not easy. **Thomas** (00:24:15:22 - 00:24:18:09): We're using the trip. **Chip** (00:24:18:11 - 00:24:18:22): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:24:19:00 - 00:24:28:18): To Hawaii is a motivation for, daddy and daddy to drop a couple of labs here. So, Cheetos have not touched my lips in quite some time, Chuck. **Chip** (00:24:29:00 - 00:24:34:17): All right, so that's that's why they're there. I don't see any orange fingers, so. All right. Good. **Thomas** (00:24:34:17 - 00:24:37:15): Yeah. No, it's really easy to get caught with the Cheetos. **Chip** (00:24:37:17 - 00:25:10:06): Okay. All right, so tech guru Thomas tells okay. So AR and VR. So this is Heritage Time capsules okay. Heritage time capsule okay. Basically this is experiences and recreating lost ecosystems. So like you would use virtual reality or AI to like go around and be like hey there actually is a rainforest here or oh look, I'm sitting by this cool water at the beach when really you're just maybe in a room or in the middle of the desert somewhere. Tumbleweeds, I don't know, but it's it's recreating what? We can't have any more going back time traveling, if you will. Through VR and AR, what do you think about that? **Thomas** (00:25:20:15 - 00:25:56:06): That feels less like a vacation. Yeah, I can be honest. But I totally see its benefits. Like during the pandemic when I was not, free to move about. The world is as easily as I would like. And, you know, there was some, some stressful moments. Everything was a little weird. I did have a pair of Oculus VR goggles, and I would pop them on, and I would just spend time and, like, buy a river in France or walking around Amsterdam or like, you know, I would use that. And it did, like scratch that itch a little bit to get outside and explore the world, to just be there wearing the goggles, being able to look around, see what's going on. This, this I can see happening, but it's just like when you move it to a digital place, a digital world that's not a vacation to me anymore. **Chip** (00:26:18:08 - 00:26:20:23): We are living in a digital world. **Thomas** (00:26:21:00 - 00:26:22:04): And we are digital girls. **Chip** (00:26:22:10 - 00:26:32:14): And we are digital girls. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah. I, I did not have the Oculus during the pandemic, but I did have an old View-Master. **Thomas** (00:26:32:16 - 00:26:33:13): Very similar. **Chip** (00:26:33:16 - 00:26:41:15): So I had one disc that showed pictures of dinosaurs, and then another one that told the story of Hansel and Gretel. 00:26:41:20 – 00:26:42:19 UNRESOLVED – To this day, you know, like, you people were like, what's the scariest thing you ever saw? Like, what's the scariest movie ever saw? Yeah, one of the most disturbing, I think, things. Do you remember those old View-Master? You know, you look through the thing? **Thomas** (00:26:52:09 - 00:26:53:04): Yeah. It was amazing. **Chip** (00:26:53:04 - 00:27:20:07): At one point, like a lot of the View-Master, they were like, basically cartoon images, right? You can see cartoon gems of Alice in Wonderland or, you know, elephants or whatever. It's right. Yeah. The ones that I had, it was my grandmother. It was at my grandma's house, and I remember and it was just photos of like, like dinosaurs, but like, it was definitely like a, like a still seen, like basically kind of toy model dinosaurs. Yeah. On like a model set. Does that sound familiar to you? Yeah. **Thomas** (00:27:23:11 - 00:27:26:10): Yeah, absolutely. They they'd have a little depth in there. **Chip** (00:27:26:12 - 00:27:44:21): There was a little depth. Yeah. And like the sky was always kind of like orange and just like, you know, weird shadows. They are some of the I think most sister, I remember just being like four years old, just staring at these things, being so frightened by these dinosaurs that I knew weren't real, but I felt like they were. And hey, maybe that'll be my vacation when, when I'm 20 years older. Yeah, maybe. Okay. Hear me out. This was not on the list. Okay, speaking of dinosaurs, we obviously know they're extinct. What if we found some dinosaur DNA? And we just go to this isolated island. Where we try to breed these dinosaurs and then people can go and visit the dinosaurs to feel like they're in prehistoric times. What do you think about that. **Thomas** (00:28:19:01 - 00:28:28:22): I think it's got legs. I mean there's a lot of science involved. Like we might have to I don't know, maybe some mosquitoes could have been crystallized in amber. **Chip** (00:28:28:22 - 00:28:31:03): Maybe in the amber. Maybe that's what maybe they. **Thomas** (00:28:31:03 - 00:28:41:09): They bit of a dinosaur. You pull it out, you extract it, and then you can get the genetic material to combine with some other eggs and, and maybe bring some species back to life. I don't know, should we though. **Chip** (00:28:41:10 - 00:28:45:14): That's a great idea. I think we should I, I don't foresee any problems. **Thomas** (00:28:45:15 - 00:28:53:09): Yeah. We can't live our life dictated on what problems we might be causing. We just kind of go after what we want and what the American consumer is going to pay for it. **Chip** (00:28:53:10 - 00:28:59:11): Maybe we get some backers, some financial backers, maybe some. You have you have some contacts in Hollywood. **Thomas** (00:28:59:11 - 00:29:01:09): I do I do have a couple of Hollywood contacts. **Chip** (00:29:01:09 - 00:29:08:12): Getting some A-list celebrities to get behind it, maybe like, I don't know, like, let's say a Chris Pratt. **Thomas** (00:29:08:14 - 00:29:09:11): Yeah. **Chip** (00:29:09:13 - 00:29:12:06): You know, or maybe like a Jeff Goldblum type. **Thomas** (00:29:12:06 - 00:29:13:12): I like a Jeff Goldblum type. **Chip** (00:29:13:14 - 00:29:28:19): Unfortunately I know we have lost the late, great actor Bill Paxton. But I had an idea of him maybe like we could do thing where we, like, go and we find storms, you know, anywhere we chase these storms. **Thomas** (00:29:28:19 - 00:29:29:10): Yeah. **Chip** (00:29:29:12 - 00:29:31:11): I don't know. I'm just. I'm spitballing here, Thomas. **Thomas** (00:29:31:15 - 00:29:33:20): I like the idea. I like the idea of building it up. **Chip** (00:29:33:20 - 00:29:35:11): Speaking of you, Masters. Thomas. **Thomas** (00:29:35:16 - 00:29:36:03): Yes? **Chip** (00:29:36:03 - 00:29:57:11): Put the View-Master down for this next idea they have. This is something that's happening now. I actually just spoke to a guy who I emailed him, and he's like, I'm going to try to email you back, but I'm going on this trip, so I might not be able to email you back for a couple of days. And then he actually just email me back right before the episode, so I didn't get a chance to do it. **Thomas** (00:29:57:11 - 00:29:59:00): But he's already in 2045. **Chip** (00:29:59:00 - 00:30:04:08): Here he is at 24 or 5 and he was at a digital detox sanctuary. **Thomas** (00:30:04:08 - 00:30:05:20): I like that digital detox. **Chip** (00:30:05:20 - 00:30:15:11): So basically you're at summer camp. No wifi. I put the phones away, close those laptops and just go live your life. **Thomas** (00:30:15:11 - 00:30:34:05): It's such a simple and easy concept, but, like, do you know how wild it is that our worlds got to a place where people are willing to see that as an advantage? Yeah, I was thinking about it. When you're talking about the differences between travel 20 years ago and now, not only was social media not a thing, but it wasn't a given in 2025 that every person had a cell phone. **Chip** (00:30:34:06 - 00:30:35:10): You were on your own, you're out there. **Thomas** (00:30:35:10 - 00:30:42:02): There was no directions on it. And also pictures. There was no pictures on it. You had to bring a regular old camera. **Chip** (00:30:42:03 - 00:30:47:02): You had to set up the tripod. You had to put that blanket over top of your head. **Thomas** (00:30:47:02 - 00:30:48:13): Yep. You had to light that match. **Chip** (00:30:48:13 - 00:30:50:11): And then you hold up that gunpowder. **Thomas** (00:30:50:11 - 00:31:05:15): It was a whole to do. And now we've got millions of pictures. Yeah. You know, people used to take a little pride in it. You would, you know, steam your clothes if you were in the 1%. Sure and go take that photo. But, people are just snip snap and no makeup, no filters, hashtags. **Chip** (00:31:05:15 - 00:31:21:00): I think the one thing that is nice is, do you ever have that thing where you were like, somebody wants to show you the vacation photos when they get back from vacation? Yeah. And you're like, all right, I could do this. That's not much a thing anymore because they just post them in real time on Instagram or on Facebook. So they need your kids to be like, oh yeah, I saw all the great pictures on Facebook and then you don't have to do that. **Thomas** (00:31:26:01 - 00:31:29:18): Can I tell you my, like one of my toxic traits? Chip. **Chip** (00:31:29:20 - 00:31:31:00): Yes. **Thomas** (00:31:31:02 - 00:31:46:19): I want to see your non social media vacation photos and I want you to tell me about the whole thing. I want you to walk it through me. It almost doesn't matter who you are. I that's like a great way for me to spend a half an hour I, I like I'll hang on people. **Chip** (00:31:46:20 - 00:31:59:01): I that's not a toxic trait Thomas. That is a an admirable. You're learning. You are literally expanding your worldview. You're viewing more pieces of the world. Your world. Yeah. Now much more expanded than mine. **Thomas** (00:31:59:03 - 00:32:11:19): I like it, but there's there's always the trope of just like the people that got to show you the photos, it's so boring, it's blah, blah, blah. I will exhaust the people showing me the photos. Yeah. What were you eating there? What was that monkey's name? **Chip** (00:32:11:19 - 00:32:17:12): You go the opposite way. It's like when a dog bites you. You don't pull out, you push in, you. **Thomas** (00:32:17:12 - 00:32:18:13): Bite that dog back. **Chip** (00:32:18:14 - 00:32:25:03): In the. Exactly. That's what I was trying to get it. The dog. You bite the dog on vacation, you bite that vacation dog. **Thomas** (00:32:25:03 - 00:32:33:10): Yeah. So, digital detox. Digital detox. They're they're going to be on the way up. Yeah, we're going to be. We're going to be sick of the AI slop. **Chip** (00:32:33:12 - 00:32:34:04): Yes. **Thomas** (00:32:34:06 - 00:32:40:04): Yeah, we're going to want to see that real, real talk to human beings, see a tree, touch some grass. It's the kids say. **Chip** (00:32:40:07 - 00:32:53:02): Exactly, exactly. All right. I'm going to these next two are just kind of words. Subterranean spa colonies. Okay. That just sounds like an Imagine Dragons album. **Thomas** (00:32:53:04 - 00:32:54:00): It does. **Chip** (00:32:54:00 - 00:32:56:10): It's like, oh, did you get subterranean spa colonies? It's like, **Thomas** (00:32:56:16 - 00:33:05:02): Yeah, it sounds like a market and marketing agency got the colonoscopy account. **Chip** (00:33:05:04 - 00:33:09:00): Yeah. These are subterranean spa colonies. Yeah. Brought to you by Cologuard. 00:33:09:04 – 00:33:10:07 UNRESOLVED – Yeah. **Thomas** (00:33:10:09 - 00:33:19:01): We're going to be doing a subterranean spa colony. You're going to have to drink a drink and not eat for 24 hours before. **Chip** (00:33:19:03 - 00:33:26:04): Yeah. How about okay. So just so I, they didn't say much about it. So it's, it's a spa colony. It's underground. **Thomas** (00:33:26:10 - 00:33:30:08): Yeah I mean it's mole people. That's a nice version. **Chip** (00:33:30:10 - 00:33:34:03): Yeah. More people got great hands. You can get a nice massage. **Thomas** (00:33:34:05 - 00:33:41:09): Yeah. Because when you lose one sensation you get stronger in your hands. I think that's how it goes. **Chip** (00:33:41:09 - 00:33:45:17): And when you have a massage, you can get naked and not worry about it because they don't see you. **Thomas** (00:33:45:19 - 00:33:47:00): Oh, that's true. **Chip** (00:33:47:02 - 00:33:47:14): You know what I'm saying? **Thomas** (00:33:47:14 - 00:33:48:12): But they will. **Chip** (00:33:48:12 - 00:33:49:06): Have an. **Thomas** (00:33:49:08 - 00:33:59:02): Amazing, understanding of your disgusting body through the the fingers apps. So you can be self-conscious there. **Chip** (00:33:59:04 - 00:34:10:10): Yeah. All right. The next one floating ocean cities. I mean I think we're getting there. It's just going to be I feel like these cruise ships, we talk about cruise ships and they're just getting bigger and bigger. They're giant cities. **Thomas** (00:34:10:11 - 00:34:11:16): They've got neighborhoods ship. **Chip** (00:34:11:19 - 00:34:30:05): It's just going to be yeah. They have neighborhoods. We talked about that. Yeah. We, you know, we're getting to the Waterworld part of the planet Earth where we're just going to have these. They're just going to build these floating, floating cities. Florida isn't always going to be there, but floating Florida someday. **Thomas** (00:34:30:07 - 00:34:47:02): Floating Florida's going to be big. And I do I remember I had this poster when I was a kid and, it said two thirds of the world is covered by water. The other third is covered by Deon Sanders. **Chip** (00:34:47:04 - 00:34:51:23): Yeah. Okay. I, I see what you're saying. I think scientifically that might be correct. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:34:52:01 - 00:34:59:06): And I think, basically for high end cornerbacks, there's going to be less and less room for them to cover. **Chip** (00:34:59:07 - 00:35:05:13): You're saying their job is going to get easier? Deon had the tough job back. 20 or so years ago. **Thomas** (00:35:05:13 - 00:35:06:22): A whole third of the Earth. **Chip** (00:35:07:00 - 00:35:10:20): He's covering a third of the Earth. These people are going to have a a quarter at most. **Thomas** (00:35:10:20 - 00:35:33:17): It might not be easier, though. That's the problem. Like every it's the same thing with AI. Everybody's saying like, oh, people's jobs are just going to get easier and people be more productive and yada yada. I don't think that's true. I think jobs are going to be erased and the need for people will be erased. So I think instead of an easier job for NFL quarterbacks, that we might just need less cornerbacks. **Chip** (00:35:33:19 - 00:35:38:01): I think it's less. Yeah. And maybe some AI cornerbacks. Maybe that's what it is. **Thomas** (00:35:38:01 - 00:35:40:04): Oh shoot, I forgot about that. **Chip** (00:35:40:04 - 00:35:41:21): Some robot cornerbacks. **Thomas** (00:35:41:21 - 00:35:45:02): Yeah. They're going to cover a lot of like a robot safety. **Chip** (00:35:45:04 - 00:35:48:08): Yeah. Can you imagine robot linebackers I can't. **Thomas** (00:35:48:08 - 00:35:51:17): Oh I mean I think they're going linebacker first. **Chip** (00:35:51:19 - 00:35:55:20): Going from light to AI I mean that is that's that's scary. **Thomas** (00:35:56:01 - 00:35:59:07): That's scary. I mean can you imagine with the earrings. **Chip** (00:35:59:09 - 00:36:04:02): Oh the the earrings themselves or I mean that's part of the system. That's part of the inner workings of it. **Thomas** (00:36:04:04 - 00:36:07:15): Yeah. It's also how you turn them off. 00:36:07:17 – 00:36:08:05 UNRESOLVED – Well. Which you want it, you want to know if you're one of the last humans still playing football against the robots? That earring, you get a little tickle and they're going, yeah. Boop. It's the power down. That's how you get in the end zone, baby. That's how you make a big play. **Chip** (00:36:20:18 - 00:36:22:19): Yes, Bo knows robots. **Thomas** (00:36:23:01 - 00:36:27:13): Robot Bo Jackson with, with working hips. **Chip** (00:36:27:15 - 00:36:34:01): Man, could you imagine just those just those those bionic hips. He would have just would not shatter at all. **Thomas** (00:36:34:06 - 00:36:37:03): And they don't have to life now because they're AI. **Chip** (00:36:37:03 - 00:36:42:07): Okay. Now we're going to go we're branching out a bit. Now we just got a few more here Thomas. **Thomas** (00:36:42:08 - 00:36:42:22): Let's get go. **Chip** (00:36:42:22 - 00:36:47:02): These are sort of self-explanatory. Lunar getaways. **Thomas** (00:36:47:04 - 00:37:03:20): Okay, I like this. This this is actually putting a little sci fi in the fun, right? And billionaires are already going to space. You know, if we think there's a premium on it in 20 years, people aren't going to be able to just get in a plane and go to the moon. I think you're wrong. **Chip** (00:37:03:22 - 00:37:05:18): No, to the moon. Alice. **Thomas** (00:37:05:20 - 00:37:07:03): Exactly, exactly. **Chip** (00:37:07:08 - 00:37:21:16): So they're like, yeah, you can you do these? Like you're running around. You having fun? Low, low gravity. Right? You're just you're popping around, you dance around. That's what vacation is. Maybe you're not sitting by the pool, but maybe you're sitting by the Sea of Tranquility. **Thomas** (00:37:21:18 - 00:37:27:03): I think the same technology that gives you those dome cities might apply here on the moon. **Chip** (00:37:27:03 - 00:37:31:07): Yeah, if they can be back. Can you imagine building a dome on the moon? Like it's just. **Thomas** (00:37:31:11 - 00:37:34:11): They could have their own radio show up there. **Chip** (00:37:34:11 - 00:37:37:06): Maybe John Mulaney plays the moon. John Mulaney. **Thomas** (00:37:37:10 - 00:37:41:07): John Mulaney plays the moon. Yeah, I mean, I like that for the poster. **Chip** (00:37:41:09 - 00:37:45:14): Can you imagine being okay? God forbid you're ready for this. A construction worker. **Thomas** (00:37:45:17 - 00:37:46:00): **Chip** (00:37:46:03 - 00:38:06:09): Although they probably be robots. Yeah, let's just say it isn't a person who is one of the construction workers building the dome on the moon. There's a horrible accident. You always see this. By the way, another disturbing photo. That's the photo from, like, I'm going to call it the 40s, where all the guys are having lunch sitting on that I-beam up on top of. Yeah, when they're building a skyscraper just horrifies me. **Thomas** (00:38:09:08 - 00:38:11:17): Two of those gentlemen made it through construction. **Chip** (00:38:11:19 - 00:38:13:02): The rest? Sorry. **Thomas** (00:38:13:03 - 00:38:16:19): Just a trail of broken homes and sad families. **Chip** (00:38:16:20 - 00:38:31:18): Yes, maybe you're looking at it in real time. But what if one of those workers on the dome on the moon falls off, falls to his death on the moon? But you're probably falling at like a third of the speed. **Thomas** (00:38:31:19 - 00:38:33:08): It's just a fraction of the gravity. Yeah. **Chip** (00:38:33:09 - 00:38:41:04): So you're just that much more aware of how it's going to end on the moon. **Thomas** (00:38:41:05 - 00:38:43:08): Speed has a lot to do with force. **Chip** (00:38:43:08 - 00:39:08:14): And we know there's it's sort of a powdery surface. Yeah I'm saying it right now. I'm, I'm taking this stand and I'm, I'm going to call it right now. November of 2025. In 20 years, when a man falls off a half constructed dome on the moon, he is going to survive with minor injuries. Saying it right now. **Thomas** (00:39:08:14 - 00:39:09:23): This is a bold prediction. **Chip** (00:39:09:23 - 00:39:20:05): We're moving on. Thomas. Next topic. Next topic. Okay, this one is just I don't see this one necessarily happening, but maybe, Mars Frontier Expeditions, right? **Thomas** (00:39:20:07 - 00:39:21:06): That's impossible. **Chip** (00:39:21:08 - 00:39:34:21): Maybe someday not. I don't think in 20 I could be wrong, but I don't think in 20 years we're going to have the technology to, like, vacation on Mars. Like what they're talking about now is like sending someone to Mars, and they'll just live out the rest of their life there. **Thomas** (00:39:34:21 - 00:39:38:13): Die there. Right? So how long does it even take to fly to Mars? **Chip** (00:39:38:13 - 00:39:40:05): I think it's months. Months. **Thomas** (00:39:40:05 - 00:39:44:20): And at minimum months. It might be even. It might be years, I don't know. So, like, how are you saying it's. **Chip** (00:39:44:20 - 00:39:46:15): Not a science podcast? This is. **Thomas** (00:39:46:17 - 00:39:48:21): Yeah, yeah. Neil deGrasse Tyson podcast. **Chip** (00:39:48:21 - 00:39:55:14): Neil deGrasse Hilton. This is a this is a travel podcast. Yeah. **Thomas** (00:39:55:16 - 00:40:07:03): It just it. Yeah. What are you going to do there? What are you going to do there? Unless you bring like your whole crew, you're going to go to Mars and read a book. Yeah. See where the other rover was, like, I don't know. **Chip** (00:40:07:03 - 00:40:12:02): Yeah. It's like, hey, it's like we're going to go vacation in Des Moines. Kind of the same thing. **Thomas** (00:40:12:07 - 00:40:12:16): Yeah. **Chip** (00:40:12:16 - 00:40:15:01): You're like, all right, there's a Cheesecake Factory. **Thomas** (00:40:15:04 - 00:40:18:21): Des Moines has real ice cream and not that astronaut business. **Chip** (00:40:18:23 - 00:40:22:00): It's true. It's it's 100% true. **Thomas** (00:40:22:02 - 00:40:31:00): Yeah. This may be the most controversial thing I've ever said, but I don't think you get anything from a trip to Mars that you don't get from a trip to the moon. No. **Chip** (00:40:31:02 - 00:40:34:14): No you don't. It's like other other than bragging rights. **Thomas** (00:40:34:14 - 00:40:36:08): The merch, the merch. **Chip** (00:40:36:08 - 00:40:40:10): Shop on Mars is going to be bonkers. **Thomas** (00:40:40:13 - 00:40:41:01): It was. **Chip** (00:40:41:01 - 00:40:51:22): Everybody wants a t shirt. Everybody wants a hat. Everybody wants one of those, tumblers. You know, like the the insulated thermos thing. Yeah. Just say I went to Mars, baby. **Thomas** (00:40:51:22 - 00:40:57:21): For my money, I think you get up to the moon. I think you take a look around. **Chip** (00:40:57:23 - 00:40:59:00): I think you see. **Thomas** (00:40:59:00 - 00:41:10:06): The earth rise above the horizon. I think that's got to be something to see on Mars. You're so far away from everything. You're just going to see stars around and the ground's going to be red. Go to Sedona, Arizona. **Chip** (00:41:10:08 - 00:41:14:04): There it is. There's a plug for Sedona. The Mars of the southwest. **Thomas** (00:41:14:09 - 00:41:15:13): Yes. **Chip** (00:41:15:15 - 00:41:31:01): I love it. I love it. All right, this next one, and this is the the last one that it's, space related. Although the moon one does sound cool, but this one sounds pretty cool to a certain extent. They're already starting to do this. Okay, but orbital Sky cruises. **Thomas** (00:41:31:01 - 00:41:33:01): That is getting into orbit. **Chip** (00:41:33:04 - 00:41:34:14): Forget the Caribbean, baby. **Thomas** (00:41:34:16 - 00:41:35:08): Yeah. **Chip** (00:41:35:10 - 00:41:59:22): Forget that for day five night. Whatever. You're hopping up into orbit. You literally for a couple of days, just orbit the Earth. You're literally going around. Yeah. Floating around again. This is not Turks and Caicos. This is not the Bahamas. We're not going to Bermuda, baby. You're circling the Earth many, many times. Yeah, that's that's a cool trip. **Thomas** (00:42:00:00 - 00:42:12:22): I mean, I not to yak here. Yeah, it sounds like you're you're here for this horrible thing. That is a trip where the the whole trip is a 72 hour flight. **Chip** (00:42:12:22 - 00:42:16:08): That is true. So, yeah, you're on the airplane the entire time. **Thomas** (00:42:16:08 - 00:42:23:00): I guess if you get to outer space and you're weightless, there's like something like there's, something interesting there. **Chip** (00:42:23:01 - 00:42:27:00): Okay, let me ask you this, Thomas. We're about to take a six hour flight to Hawaii. **Thomas** (00:42:27:00 - 00:42:27:07): Yep. **Chip** (00:42:27:10 - 00:42:30:15): Would you enjoy it more if you were weightless? **Thomas** (00:42:30:19 - 00:42:34:04): Yeah. I take weightless, I take weightless, okay. Yeah, that'd be fun. **Chip** (00:42:34:04 - 00:42:38:21): Dude, let me, we are taking the same flight. Let me see if I can, make some phone calls. 00:42:38:23 – 00:42:40:09 UNRESOLVED – That's awesome. **Thomas** (00:42:40:11 - 00:42:44:21): Get a little helium vest for Tommy boy in the old, cabin there. **Chip** (00:42:44:23 - 00:42:45:07): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:42:45:12 - 00:42:58:03): Float me around like a balloon. Let me drift into first class, drifting in the coach bathroom. I'm, not to brag, but I'm. I'm sitting in comfort. Plus, on that flight, buddy. **Chip** (00:42:58:05 - 00:42:59:08): Look at you. **Thomas** (00:42:59:10 - 00:43:05:20): Premium economy. With a lap infant. So maybe that gets, negated a little bit. **Chip** (00:43:05:20 - 00:43:10:02): We're just in regular economy or whatever it is, and, but no, wait. No infants. **Thomas** (00:43:10:03 - 00:43:18:08): Well, it's going to be a great time for you and Kim to spend 4 or 5 hours with my daughter. Just, you know, to get the trip kicked off. **Chip** (00:43:18:08 - 00:43:35:16): Right. All right. And just real quickly, these last couple, these are more, along the lines of those, like, VR things, but virtual and mixed reality vacations, simulation pods. Basically, you just get in a pod and it simulates a vacation for you. Yeah, exactly. Like you said earlier, not exactly a vacation. We're going to move on from that one. This one is kind of interesting. This is very Black Mirror. There was literally a Black Mirror episode about this, but like memory replay holidays. **Thomas** (00:43:42:10 - 00:43:43:16): Oh, this is fun. **Chip** (00:43:43:18 - 00:43:50:19): You go back and to a holiday when you're a child, or a vacation when your child, or if you're in England, that's the same thing. **Thomas** (00:43:50:23 - 00:43:52:07): Yeah. **Chip** (00:43:52:09 - 00:44:06:00): And you go and you relive that first time you went to Hawaii, that time you went to Jones Beach. Yeah. You know, with the fam. So you dig back in the crevices of your wrinkly wrinkly brain. **Thomas** (00:44:06:03 - 00:44:06:22): Yeah. **Chip** (00:44:07:00 - 00:44:15:02): And it implants some some memories in there. So I thought it was going and then finally, this one's crazy. I generated dream retreats. **Thomas** (00:44:15:02 - 00:44:15:23): This sounds real. **Chip** (00:44:16:05 - 00:44:25:10): This is crazy. Where it's like, basically like the things that you dream up, you get to live those things in a VR situation. **Thomas** (00:44:25:12 - 00:44:46:18): I like it. Yeah, that sounds interesting. It all. It also makes me very sad because this is in lieu of being able to do the real thing. I'd have to imagine we don't we don't go. Nobody chooses this over going to the Grand Canyon like, no, I think it's a world where, going outside is not so good for staying alive. **Chip** (00:44:46:20 - 00:44:47:21): Yes. **Thomas** (00:44:47:23 - 00:45:01:08): Or nuclear fallout. Some of it's all pretty bleak. I like the one where you go and travel and maybe help out a kangaroo at the same time. That makes you nice. **Chip** (00:45:01:08 - 00:45:05:00): I think that's the first hands on Thomas hands. **Thomas** (00:45:05:02 - 00:45:09:06): These these hands could heal the earth, and they could take a trip. **Chip** (00:45:09:11 - 00:45:10:14): One kangaroo at a time. **Thomas** (00:45:10:18 - 00:45:19:19): Oh, man. That's one thing I do miss about most of my travels is the opportunity to come back and tell everybody I'm a friggin hero. **Chip** (00:45:19:21 - 00:45:34:12): That that's the best part. That's the best part. You're just a t shirt that just says you're welcome that day. And then just real quickly, I have a couple others. I searched some other places for some, other vacations that I think might be happening in 2045. **Thomas** (00:45:34:12 - 00:45:41:23): We've stepped outside of I, we're into. Yes, good old human intuition. What's going to happen in 20 years? Beautiful. **Chip** (00:45:42:01 - 00:45:51:04): Okay. I have about 30 of them here, so we'll go through it relatively quickly. So. Okay, so one would be you and your robot girlfriend go to Las Vegas for the weekend. **Thomas** (00:45:51:05 - 00:46:09:18): This is where I was concerned that the AI had lost its way. Yeah. I was just like, there's nothing here for pervs. That's what moves the world. That's what moves. Especially the technol technology world that it's there's what are the perverts going to do? And they're going to be taking robot girlfriends to Vegas. Yeah, that's that's spot on. **Chip** (00:46:09:19 - 00:46:17:11): Okay. Next one. I think this is kind of interesting. It also involves technology. You and your robot girlfriend spend a weekend in Santa Barbara. **Thomas** (00:46:17:13 - 00:46:21:06): Oh, okay. Yeah, a little a bed and breakfast, maybe. **Chip** (00:46:21:08 - 00:46:30:14): Yeah. Okay. This one, you and your robot girlfriend, go to the Bermuda for the week and just sun and fun on the beach. **Thomas** (00:46:30:16 - 00:46:33:15): Yeah, yeah, yeah, this sounds right. **Chip** (00:46:33:17 - 00:46:51:13): That could happen in 20 years. You and your, robot girlfriend go on a road trip or get in a fight, and she wants to go, and she keeps talking about her ex robot boyfriend. Yeah. And she's like, drop me off in, Cleveland because I'm staying with Scott, and you're like, all right, robot girlfriend. But. And this is, by the way, this is, this is a Cleveland to the other, the lunar. Yes. **Thomas** (00:46:57:00 - 00:46:58:06): Cleveland two. Okay, okay. **Chip** (00:46:58:07 - 00:47:14:05): So this at one, you know, and then, you know, I don't think we have to go through all of these. Yeah, you could see the rest of the 3040 that I've written down. Yeah. But, then, of course there is, you and your robot girlfriend take a European vacation. Any, **Thomas** (00:47:14:07 - 00:47:20:05): Inkling what this robot girlfriend's name is? Chip. Just in your mind, is there anything that pops out? **Chip** (00:47:20:06 - 00:47:27:22): I didn't see any research. No, I can I can look it up, but I don't. I don't think I have anything on the books here. How about you. **Thomas** (00:47:28:00 - 00:47:31:10): Find know, maybe a Stacy. **Chip** (00:47:31:12 - 00:47:33:22): There it is. Maybe Stacy's mom. **Thomas** (00:47:34:00 - 00:47:41:23): A Stacy's mom. I mean, that's, more expensive robot. But, there is something about these robots. When they get upset on a road trip. **Chip** (00:47:42:03 - 00:47:42:20): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:47:42:22 - 00:47:46:06): They always threaten to get out someplace that's not safe to get out. **Chip** (00:47:46:08 - 00:47:53:16): No. And the worst part is when they say turn the car around, you know, that they can physically do that. **Thomas** (00:47:53:16 - 00:47:55:10): Without a steering wheel. **Chip** (00:47:55:12 - 00:48:01:04): They just plug into the, cigaret lighter, and they're in full control of the vehicle. **Thomas** (00:48:01:04 - 00:48:19:22): That's the thing about robot girlfriends that nobody talks about is they're smarter, more powerful, and meaner than we could ever be. You're really at, on your back foot a lot of times when you're dealing with these robot girlfriends. **Chip** (00:48:20:00 - 00:48:22:19): I think it keeps us humble. And I think that's the important part. **Thomas** (00:48:22:23 - 00:48:32:10): It does. And I also think that it'd be a little different if some of these robot girlfriends had dads growing up. That's what I think. That's what I think the, the issue is. **Chip** (00:48:32:10 - 00:48:53:00): Just imagine meeting the robot in-laws. God, that's just. They're just looking down at you. The robot mom is mixing a robot martini. Yeah, just like giving you the robot side, and be like. And then the father's like, where did you go to prep school? You know, and you're like, I didn't go to robot, you know? Stanford. I'm sorry, red robot. **Thomas** (00:48:54:22 - 00:48:56:06): Grandma's a crackpot. **Chip** (00:48:56:09 - 00:48:56:23): Yes. **Thomas** (00:48:56:23 - 00:48:58:18): And you're just never going to cook better than her. **Chip** (00:48:58:19 - 00:49:02:17): It never cooks better than her. And it's she's very slow. I will say that. 00:49:02:21 – 00:49:03:21 UNRESOLVED – **Thomas** (00:49:03:23 - 00:49:05:15): But to her credit, she makes it work. **Chip** (00:49:05:15 - 00:49:08:01): So that's the future. I want to talk about the. **Thomas** (00:49:08:02 - 00:49:08:15): Yeah, I. **Chip** (00:49:08:15 - 00:49:09:21): Want to talk about the present real quickly. **Thomas** (00:49:09:21 - 00:49:11:10): Thomas, let's get into the present, Patty. **Chip** (00:49:11:15 - 00:49:22:04): Because the future might be so bright that we have to wear shades. That is true. But I think the present is pretty darn. Excuse the language. Wonderful. **Thomas** (00:49:22:06 - 00:49:24:05): It's really exciting. A lot of good things are happening. **Chip** (00:49:24:05 - 00:49:26:12): There are some great people doing some great things. **Thomas** (00:49:26:12 - 00:49:28:06): Unbelievable people doing unbelievable things. **Chip** (00:49:28:07 - 00:49:33:21): World, world record setting things. I think it's time to open up the Good book. **Thomas** (00:49:34:00 - 00:49:52:02): We're juicing out, juicing it. We're juicing out. The last couple of months we have with the 2025 edition, we are talking world records. We're talking the Good Book, Chip Chantry. What what have you come up with this week to dazzle and inspire us from The Good Book? **Chip** (00:49:52:07 - 00:49:57:11): Tommy, I got to say something. Two words for you. Three words. **Thomas** (00:49:57:13 - 00:49:58:12): Hit me. **Chip** (00:49:58:14 - 00:49:59:20): Surf's up baby. **Thomas** (00:49:59:22 - 00:50:04:17): Oh, okay. Okay. This sounds like it could be, Hawaii. **Chip** (00:50:04:17 - 00:50:22:11): Jason actually, I, I don't want to give too much away. I have a question for you. Okay. This is the record. For the longest time spent surfing a wave. **Thomas** (00:50:22:13 - 00:50:24:22): Right? Okay. I've never seen this one. I have no idea. **Chip** (00:50:24:22 - 00:50:42:01): The longest time period. Yeah. Surfing a wave. I actually did some a little extra research. I started in the good book, and then I pivoted to online to look for Guinness. Found something here. This is a pretty recent one. Okay. So this is actually going to be in the 2026 edition. Oh it's a recent. **Thomas** (00:50:42:01 - 00:50:46:10): This is yeah I mean this is also a glimpse into the future 100%. **Chip** (00:50:46:10 - 00:51:01:06): Now let me ask you this, Thomas, I want you to guess. So this is the the longest time surfing a wave like time period, you know, no distance time. How long do you think it is? And where in the world do you think it took place? **Thomas** (00:51:01:06 - 00:51:11:18): Okay, I'm going to go with, one minute, 45 seconds. Okay? And I'm going to put it off the coast of Portugal. **Chip** (00:51:11:20 - 00:51:12:12): It's great. **Thomas** (00:51:12:12 - 00:51:14:23): Thomas, is it right? **Chip** (00:51:15:01 - 00:51:17:15): I will say you're actually in the right continent. **Thomas** (00:51:17:17 - 00:51:18:09): Okay. **Chip** (00:51:18:11 - 00:51:33:12): I'll take it. One minute, 45 seconds. Klaus. Close. You're in the ballpark. This happened in the big surf town of. I believe. I'm saying strike a BMC. Austria. **Thomas** (00:51:33:14 - 00:51:36:02): Is it a river situation? **Chip** (00:51:36:04 - 00:51:42:04): It might be. And you said the longest wave ridden was a minute, 45 seconds. **Thomas** (00:51:42:06 - 00:51:43:06): **Chip** (00:51:43:08 - 00:51:53:19): This Austrian wave that this gent, rode, he rode that wave for eight hours, five minutes and 44 seconds. **Thomas** (00:51:53:19 - 00:51:56:11): So this is like a natural wave park. **Chip** (00:51:56:13 - 00:52:03:12): So this is. Yeah, it's this sort of wave park that's like, right next to a river. It's called river wave. A man made wave. **Thomas** (00:52:03:12 - 00:52:06:12): A man made wave. That's how they get your chip. **Chip** (00:52:06:12 - 00:52:11:16): That's how they get you. Hot dog. Maximillian Nubuck. **Thomas** (00:52:11:18 - 00:52:14:07): The predecessor family to the Reebok family. **Chip** (00:52:14:08 - 00:52:16:19): Let's just say he pumped his sneakers. That morning. 00:52:16:20 – 00:52:17:09 UNRESOLVED – Yeah. This is in brisk Austria. This is not. He's wearing a wet suit. It's not very warm. **Thomas** (00:52:23:06 - 00:52:29:21): It's such an endurance effort in the cold. It's the calf control alone, man. This guy's got to be feeling the burn. **Chip** (00:52:29:22 - 00:52:49:06): That's something very interesting that you bring up, because at one point during those eight hours, he can be seen. And I saw some video footage of it eating us like a pizza. Like people can just hand him some food because he's right there. He's eating pizza. One time he was literally just eating soup out of a bowl with a spoon, just surfing and eating soup. And he could also be seen. He had those like electric massagers that he was massaging his thighs and his legs to get the cramps out because it's he's surfing for eight hours straight. Continuous. One wave, no breaks. **Thomas** (00:53:03:16 - 00:53:08:18): Show me your dad owns a wave park without telling me your dad owns a wave park. **Chip** (00:53:08:20 - 00:53:16:00): It's pretty much max millions, pop, I'm sure. Probably does. Yes. And again, he was eating pizza. He was eating bullshit. **Thomas** (00:53:16:04 - 00:53:17:05): Classic pizza soup. **Chip** (00:53:17:05 - 00:53:20:22): Combo. And of course, he was drinking Red bull because those guys had to be involved. **Thomas** (00:53:20:23 - 00:53:22:10): They've got big roots in Austria. **Chip** (00:53:22:11 - 00:53:32:04): They do, they do. He. So anyway, he shattered the previous record, which was three hours, 55 minutes. **Thomas** (00:53:32:06 - 00:53:33:03): To doubled up. **Chip** (00:53:33:03 - 00:53:51:13): So he shattered by about five hours. Yeah. More than doubled it. And and just so now. So he's, he's a big winner. I mean, I give him credit, he literally surfed away for eight hours straight. I can't even sleep for eight hours straight. Do you know what I mean? Without a break? Yeah. Although, leave it. Leave it to Austrians to, like, take something as fun as surfing and make it seem like a day job. But, congratulations to Maximilian. Eight hours. Oh, by the way, it just happened September 22nd this year. Like, just over a month ago. Yeah. So it just happened. **Thomas** (00:54:08:04 - 00:54:08:23): That's fresh. **Chip** (00:54:08:23 - 00:54:30:13): So we do have time to break the record. And, and just in conclusion, I think just that eight hour, five minute, 44 second, record, it just reminds me of one of my favorite Beach Boys songs. Hey, baby, let's stand still for an entire workday. Because that's basically what he did. So that's gradually just the next million. The longest time on a surf riding a wave eight hours, 55 minutes for 44, eight hours, five minutes, 45 seconds. **Thomas** (00:54:43:11 - 00:55:09:15): I think we'll have to look into this. I wonder if in your child's first name, you kind of, hide the word million in there. I wonder if that leads to, outsized results in terms of being, world record worthy. It seems like it's, you know, something that might help out or something that, parents with an extreme, attitude might give their children. **Chip** (00:55:09:17 - 00:55:15:21): I could see that happening. Yeah. Thomas, speaking of extreme attitudes, what's your record for the day? **Thomas** (00:55:15:21 - 00:55:32:21): It's the opposite of a trope we've been talking about in past world records. Okay? Often times people will take two things and smash them together to kind of get a, I don't know, something that feels a little wonky in the record world. It's just like. **Chip** (00:55:32:21 - 00:55:33:07): Yes. **Thomas** (00:55:33:07 - 00:55:35:08): Underwater basket weaving. **Chip** (00:55:35:08 - 00:55:38:22): The first guy to rollerblade a mile while eating a birthday cake. **Thomas** (00:55:39:04 - 00:55:49:00): Yeah. Or like, I think of one. And this was impressive, but it was like, a guy who surfed down a volcano. Yes. Wasn't that there was one? We did. It's just kind of like, okay. **Chip** (00:55:49:00 - 00:55:51:23): Like, yeah, it's like we're forcing the issue at this point. **Thomas** (00:55:51:23 - 00:55:57:23): Would you be really good at surfing? Would you be? I mean, I don't think even going down a volcano is even a thing. **Chip** (00:55:57:23 - 00:55:59:02): He's making it up. **Thomas** (00:55:59:04 - 00:56:19:21): This one is somebody who did two very hard things simultaneously with incredible results. Okay. The world record I bring before you and all burnt one kind is the most rotating puzzle cube solves while running a marathon chip. **Chip** (00:56:19:23 - 00:56:20:18): Whoa. **Thomas** (00:56:20:18 - 00:56:26:15): This guy is doing. I don't know what's the difference between a puzzle cube and a Rubik's Cube? I imagine it's just branding. **Chip** (00:56:26:17 - 00:56:28:10): It's just. I'm sure it's copyright. **Thomas** (00:56:28:10 - 00:56:29:08): Yeah, this. **Chip** (00:56:29:08 - 00:56:30:07): Guy. **Thomas** (00:56:30:09 - 00:56:38:07): Set the record for the most puzzle cubes solved while running a marathon. Two things I couldn't do, period. **Chip** (00:56:38:08 - 00:56:40:02): No, I can't do either one. **Thomas** (00:56:40:07 - 00:57:07:10): But he's doing it at the same time. And I mean, the stats on this thing are mind blowing. The record belongs to K guy. Okay, in Chiba, Japan on the 15th of October 2022. So this record is stood for, the test of three years right now. He beat the previous record by 166 cubes. Whoa. Over the course of a marathon. **Chip** (00:57:07:12 - 00:57:09:08): Geez, he solved. **Thomas** (00:57:09:08 - 00:57:24:19): One every hundred meters for the whole marathon. I'm not going to put you on the spot and ask you to do that kind of math, but no. Do you have a rough estimation of how many Rubik's cubes that would be over the course of a whole marathon. **Chip** (00:57:24:21 - 00:57:28:07): Like a hundred. So he did one for every 100m. **Thomas** (00:57:28:07 - 00:57:29:03): **Chip** (00:57:29:05 - 00:57:37:21): So that's like two point is that like is like two is like 300. Rubik's cube solved. **Thomas** (00:57:38:00 - 00:57:40:14): 420. **Chip** (00:57:40:16 - 00:57:44:20): GS for 20 baby. For that guy afterwards. Ooh. **Thomas** (00:57:44:20 - 00:57:50:17): Yeah. I mean that's where he cut it off. You know, he cut it off there, to for a little inside joke with the boy. **Chip** (00:57:50:18 - 00:57:53:19): So he ran a marathon. He ran 26.2 miles. **Thomas** (00:57:54:00 - 00:57:59:02): 26.2 miles in four hours and 34 minutes and 23 seconds. **Chip** (00:57:59:04 - 00:58:00:20): Not terrible, considering you're. **Thomas** (00:58:00:20 - 00:58:12:14): Now, you know, doing something else at the same time. Every hundred meters. Like it? Yeah. You know, it takes, you know, a sprinter does 100m and nine point something seconds. **Chip** (00:58:12:17 - 00:58:13:12): Yeah. **Thomas** (00:58:13:14 - 00:58:19:19): Yeah. So this guy is solving a Rubik's cube every hundred meters while running a decent clip on a marathon. **Chip** (00:58:19:21 - 00:58:24:21): By the way, my image. I'm hoping that he's carrying all of these 400 Rubik's cubes with him. **Thomas** (00:58:24:23 - 00:58:27:23): Oh, that's a good point. I have no idea how that works. **Chip** (00:58:27:23 - 00:58:30:01): I would assume people are handing them his, **Thomas** (00:58:30:03 - 00:58:30:23): Yeah, yeah. **Chip** (00:58:30:23 - 00:58:32:16): Every 100m. You got a buddy there. **Thomas** (00:58:32:16 - 00:58:46:19): He was doing this specific combination for ten years to get him to the point where he smashed the world record by 166 cubes. It was previously 245 cubes over the course of a marathon. **Chip** (00:58:46:20 - 00:58:54:13): Well. Well done, well done. How many Rubik's cubes do you think my guy could have solved on a surfboard? **Thomas** (00:58:54:15 - 00:59:12:16): He had the time. He could have done it. If you can eat soup, you can solve a cube. Yeah. So that's it from For My World record. Dude, it's it's that portion of the, the episode where we just keep it rolling, baby. Yeah. We're moving into vacation rules, chip. We've got a vacation coming up super soon. These are becoming more personal and more meaningful to me as we come up on our trip in three weeks. What's your vacation rule this week? **Chip** (00:59:20:02 - 00:59:32:19): All right, so this one is it could be for any vacation. I'm kind of thinking more of a road trip. Vacation. This is for road trippers, okay. But it could. It could also be for somebody flying as well. Okay. **Thomas** (00:59:32:21 - 00:59:33:07): All right. **Chip** (00:59:33:11 - 00:59:57:12): Vacation rule number 234. Arrive at your destination with a full heart and an empty bladder. Okay, let's say you're taking a road trip and you're about an hour outside of town or an hour away from where you're going to be. Or maybe you're on a plane and it's about an hour before landing or whatever. Okay. Yeah. And you kind of have to pee. You kind of got to go a little bit and you're going past that rest stop or that gas station. You're like, well, I can hold it for an hour. Don't be a hero and hold it. Otherwise you're nervously pulling into town and you got to go. You may need to figure out parking. You have to figure out the check in process. Maybe there's people checking in, and then all of a sudden, you're that nervous, crazed guy that's got to pee and you're forgetting your bag, or you're just. You're getting short with the person. Get out. Get rid of that, take care of that, and then come into town like a boss, okay? It can can be confusing and stressful enough pulling in, finding parking, the garage, whatever. Yeah, don't need to do it with a liter of mountain Dew. Code red in your bladder. **Thomas** (01:00:42:23 - 01:00:47:17): Give yourself that extra comfort pullover. They call them comfort breaks for a reason. **Chip** (01:00:47:17 - 01:00:51:16): Chip, you want to be coming into town that first day in style? **Thomas** (01:00:51:18 - 01:01:14:14): Yeah. No, there's there's been too many. Too many. Frantic key jiggles at a motel six, motel room. Somebody's trying to sprint in there, even leaving their suitcase outside momentarily to, to get that. Not a good, but sweet relief. Just, you know, when you need to go, go, go drive. Ready to rock, baby? That's how we like to do it. **Chip** (01:01:16:03 - 01:01:18:15): There it is. How about Thomas? What's your role? **Thomas** (01:01:18:17 - 01:01:41:04): I'm going to be honest. This is the most seasonal rule I've ever done before. I like it. This is vacation rule number 217. If you're not sure where to spend Thanksgiving, just go to Hawaii. How else will you see Chip Chantry? Is Thanksgiving in Paradise at the Blue Note, Hawaii on November 26th? **Chip** (01:01:41:06 - 01:01:43:22): Best role we've ever done, best role we've ever done. **Thomas** (01:01:43:23 - 01:01:48:04): Few will follow it. But for those who do, no regrets. **Chip** (01:01:48:04 - 01:01:48:17): No. **Thomas** (01:01:48:17 - 01:02:01:14): Regrets. And now, as we do every week, we're going to cap it off with, juicy buffet facts. What did you learn about the man this week, Chip Thomas? **Chip** (01:02:01:16 - 01:02:15:20): Jimmy Buffett's music was considered, among other things, tropical rock, but Jimmy Buffett was never considered yacht rock because he's no snob. He was a man of the people and the dolphins. **Thomas** (01:02:15:21 - 01:02:18:13): He was more of a vibe than a category, you know what I mean. **Chip** (01:02:18:13 - 01:02:21:13): Really was he really was not a genre of. **Thomas** (01:02:21:13 - 01:02:26:21): Vibe, really tough to classify, but, not hard to enjoy or respect. **Chip** (01:02:26:21 - 01:02:28:03): How about you? What do you got? **Thomas** (01:02:28:07 - 01:02:39:10): Jimmy Buffett was never scared about getting a bad deal because he always believed it's Black Friday. Somewhere. **Chip** (01:02:39:12 - 01:02:43:15): 100% true, 100% sure. Okay. Very topical. **Thomas** (01:02:43:15 - 01:02:56:06): Thomas I love it. I love I think it's so powerful to, you know, if you're concerned about something, to imagine a world where there's no scarcity of that thing you wish there was. It's 5:00 somewhere. **Chip** (01:02:56:06 - 01:02:57:07): Black Friday somewhere. **Thomas** (01:02:57:07 - 01:03:00:13): Believe it in your heart. You don't have to have anxiety in your head. **Chip** (01:03:00:13 - 01:03:06:09): I'm trampling somebody for a PlayStation. Somewhere in my mind right now. **Thomas** (01:03:06:11 - 01:03:14:20): All right, well, we got to wrap this up, man. Among other things, we got to start packing our bags and getting ready for this, trip to the Hawaiian. **Chip** (01:03:14:20 - 01:03:16:21): Yeah, right. We do. **Thomas** (01:03:16:23 - 01:03:25:20): But this has been the sunburnt podcast where we talk about comedy and tropical travel. Until next time, stay burnt. Front desk. **Chip** (01:03:25:20 - 01:03:34:04): Hi, this is Mr. Chantry in room 308. I'm calling from the lounge phone. I'm going to need another room key card. I met another lady friend that I'd like to share. The room with. **Thomas** (01:03:34:08 - 01:03:39:12): Mr. Chantry, did you lose another key card in the water slide again? **Chip** (01:03:39:14 - 01:03:41:07): That corkscrew is a real doozy. **Thomas** (01:03:41:07 - 01:03:43:14): We'll have another pair of room keys sent to the lobby.
