197: Palm Springs Hotel - 2 Star Review

Speaker: 00:00:01

Everybody's got an opinion, every Californian and Virginian.

Speaker: 00:00:08

It's so hard to tell who to trust and who to ignore.

Speaker: 00:00:12

Someone's gotta settle the score.

Speaker: 00:00:14

Trey and Chelsey will help you choose.

Speaker: 00:00:17

Whose views win?

Speaker: 00:00:19

Which ones lose?

Speaker: 00:00:21

Online haters are coming for you.

Speaker: 00:00:25

Baby, it's time to review the review!

Speaker: 00:00:29

Hello!

Speaker: 00:00:32

Well, hello and welcome to Review That Review.

Speaker: 00:00:35

We are the podcast that is dedicated to reviewing Reviews!

Speaker: 00:00:43

That is Chelsey Donn.

Speaker: 00:00:44

And that is Trey Gerrald.

Speaker: 00:00:47

And us together are

Speaker: 00:00:49

The Review Queens.

Speaker: 00:00:53

That's right.

Speaker: 00:00:54

But first, Trey, I feel like it's been a while since I've seen you in real life.

Speaker: 00:00:59

You were sick.

Speaker: 00:01:00

You were going through the plague.

Speaker: 00:01:01

All the things were happening.

Speaker: 00:01:02

And I imagine you've been storing up some complaints for the winter, so,

Speaker: 00:01:07

would you like to Ledge a complaint.

Speaker: 00:01:10

Well, yes, I would.

Speaker: 00:01:11

Although I didn't even think about when I had the strap and the flu at the

Speaker: 00:01:15

same time, um, today I really need to lodge a complaint against people who

Speaker: 00:01:24

frequent a physical fitness gym, right?

Speaker: 00:01:29

And, um, Choose intentionally to take the closest parking spots.

Speaker: 00:01:39

Why?

Speaker: 00:01:39

Why is that a thing?

Speaker: 00:01:41

You are paying money to an establishment monthly.

Speaker: 00:01:48

Right.

Speaker: 00:01:49

To house a facility to make you do things you don't want to do to lift heavy

Speaker: 00:01:56

things to repeat the lifting of the heavy things to break sweat previous complaint

Speaker: 00:02:04

to live stream to all of your hands.

Speaker: 00:02:08

Um, why then is it imperative to you to park as close to the door as possible?

Speaker: 00:02:17

If the sole purpose is doing things that are good for your body, Increasing

Speaker: 00:02:23

your heart rate, uh, walking.

Speaker: 00:02:26

We, we, we pay to walk on an endless belt, going nowhere.

Speaker: 00:02:31

We're walking in place going nowhere, okay?

Speaker: 00:02:34

But in order to get to that belt that goes nowhere, where we're going

Speaker: 00:02:38

to walk for, what, half an hour.

Speaker: 00:02:40

I know people that walk for an hour.

Speaker: 00:02:42

We go up steps that go nowhere.

Speaker: 00:02:45

But we must park as close as possible because we can't get be inconvenienced

Speaker: 00:02:50

to walk a few steps further to the door.

Speaker: 00:02:54

What is that?

Speaker: 00:02:55

And It's a complaint because I want to park as close as possible and I can't park

Speaker: 00:03:01

as close as possible because everyone else is trying to park as close as possible

Speaker: 00:03:06

to go to the place for physical fitness.

Speaker: 00:03:11

Okay.

Speaker: 00:03:11

And, and taking aside that I live in a place that has a lot of snow and is cold.

Speaker: 00:03:17

So, because I can, I can understand that sensation where it's like,

Speaker: 00:03:21

I don't, I want to be as least uncomfortable as possible before I

Speaker: 00:03:24

go to the place to be uncomfortable.

Speaker: 00:03:26

But why is that a thing?

Speaker: 00:03:28

Why in our heads do we not think, let me park as far as possible.

Speaker: 00:03:33

I'll get a head start.

Speaker: 00:03:34

This will be an extra 30 seconds.

Speaker: 00:03:36

It's not the grocery store where I know I'm going to be schlepping

Speaker: 00:03:40

and pushing a cart, being responsible for returning the cart.

Speaker: 00:03:43

None of that exists.

Speaker: 00:03:45

No, no, none of that exists.

Speaker: 00:03:46

We're going to the gym for the physicality.

Speaker: 00:03:51

Why must we park close?

Speaker: 00:03:53

That's my complaint.

Speaker: 00:03:55

I hear you.

Speaker: 00:03:55

It's an interesting complaint.

Speaker: 00:03:57

I mean, I like that you owned up to the fact that you're a part of the problem.

Speaker: 00:04:00

I think that's an important element of the complaint.

Speaker: 00:04:03

I'm not even

Speaker: 00:04:03

part of it because I can't even get them because everyone gets them before me.

Speaker: 00:04:07

But you also have the same desire.

Speaker: 00:04:09

I have to say, I've been there and my excuse was that at the

Speaker: 00:04:15

time that I was going to the gym, I was going for a certain class

Speaker: 00:04:20

that started at a certain time.

Speaker: 00:04:22

Like I have this class and it starts exactly at six and I'm like running to get

Speaker: 00:04:27

there after work and I'm in such a rush because I have to make it to this class

Speaker: 00:04:32

because they close the door after like 10 minutes or five minutes or whatever it is.

Speaker: 00:04:36

I gotta park close in that scenario,

Speaker: 00:04:39

leave earlier.

Speaker: 00:04:41

I couldn't, I was coming straight from work.

Speaker: 00:04:44

You can say, beep, beep, I'm in the HOV lane.

Speaker: 00:04:48

Beep, beep, I got this dummy in the backseat.

Speaker: 00:04:50

There's a whole carpool going.

Speaker: 00:04:52

I mean, we have to get there safely.

Speaker: 00:04:54

But anyway, the point is, I think that some people get like frantic

Speaker: 00:04:56

when they're going to a certain class.

Speaker: 00:04:59

And it's like, oh my god, I gotta get there.

Speaker: 00:05:00

I have to find my spot.

Speaker: 00:05:01

If I don't get there early, then I'm not gonna get my spot, like, you know.

Speaker: 00:05:04

People are.

Speaker: 00:05:04

So I think that that could play a part in it.

Speaker: 00:05:06

But I hear you.

Speaker: 00:05:07

There is hypocrisy there.

Speaker: 00:05:09

And I'm sorry that you're the one that has to walk past everybody else.

Speaker: 00:05:13

Yeah.

Speaker: 00:05:14

Keying every damn car as I go.

Speaker: 00:05:17

You're about to.

Speaker: 00:05:18

Oh my God.

Speaker: 00:05:19

All right.

Speaker: 00:05:19

Well, I feel a little better.

Speaker: 00:05:21

Yes.

Speaker: 00:05:21

Um, hopefully anyone watching or listening, you, you've,

Speaker: 00:05:25

you can experience that.

Speaker: 00:05:26

If you have experienced that, you can commiserate with me.

Speaker: 00:05:29

Let us know in the comments.

Speaker: 00:05:31

Yes, I hear you try.

Speaker: 00:05:32

I've added it to the ledger.

Speaker: 00:05:34

Thank you.

Speaker: 00:05:35

Let's all just walk.

Speaker: 00:05:36

Why are we paying to walk on a belt?

Speaker: 00:05:38

I mean, I, I don't understand that anyway.

Speaker: 00:05:40

Like I feel like if you're going to walk, walk outside because what?

Speaker: 00:05:44

I don't get it.

Speaker: 00:05:45

Um, I avoid the stairs everywhere and then it's like, I'm

Speaker: 00:05:48

expected to do a stair master.

Speaker: 00:05:50

I don't think so.

Speaker: 00:05:51

I have someone who fell for the Peloton.

Speaker: 00:05:54

Oh yes.

Speaker: 00:05:55

Having used it in years.

Speaker: 00:05:58

You hang clothes on it, right?

Speaker: 00:05:59

Don't bring this up to my husband, . Let's, let's move on quickly.

Speaker: 00:06:03

Yes,

Speaker: 00:06:03

let's, okay, let's

Speaker: 00:06:03

stage the space.

Speaker: 00:06:05

Shall we jump into an online review?

Speaker: 00:06:06

Chelsey, I'd love to hear what you brought in.

Speaker: 00:06:08

Speaker: 00:07:36

You could have done something there.

Speaker: 00:07:41

I'm going to keep saying it sometimes people need to be addressed in the moment.

Speaker: 00:07:46

I know for me, if I'm watching something and I say, Oh, I'll subscribe later.

Speaker: 00:07:50

I'm not going to do it.

Why don't we jump into that review you brought in, babe?

Speaker: 00:08:13

Let's do it.

Speaker: 00:08:15

Review that review.

Speaker: 00:08:20

As you know, we are your trusty review queens.

Speaker: 00:08:23

We bring in reviews from the internet that we feel Need to be inspected.

Speaker: 00:08:29

We read you a review, we break it down, and then we rate the impact of that review

Speaker: 00:08:33

on a scale from zero to five crowns.

Speaker: 00:08:35

We also have half crowns.

Speaker: 00:08:37

It's a really regal process that we call Assess That Kvetch.

Speaker: 00:08:42

And Chelsey, what are we doing today?

Speaker: 00:08:44

Let me know.

Speaker: 00:08:45

Yes.

Speaker: 00:08:46

Well, first, I have to take two seconds just to acknowledge

Speaker: 00:08:50

this beautiful background.

Speaker: 00:08:52

If you're watching on YouTube that you get to see this is the debut episode of this.

Speaker: 00:08:58

Gorgeous background.

Speaker: 00:09:00

Okay.

Speaker: 00:09:00

So enjoy it.

Speaker: 00:09:01

If you're, if you're following us on Instagram, you've already seen it.

Speaker: 00:09:05

Um, but I thought the time of year, Trey, when we just need a little vacay, even

Speaker: 00:09:12

if it's just like a weekend, well, vacay.

Speaker: 00:09:16

So I thought, let me look into Palm Springs.

Speaker: 00:09:18

I like to go to Palm Springs.

Speaker: 00:09:20

It's close by, tends to be a little bit warmer there.

Speaker: 00:09:24

I was like, let's see what's going on.

Speaker: 00:09:25

I want to stay at someplace new.

Speaker: 00:09:27

Okay.

Speaker: 00:09:29

So I ended up on Google reviews.

Speaker: 00:09:32

And I found a hotel called Triada, Palm Springs Autograph Collection.

Speaker: 00:09:39

Oh, Autograph.

Speaker: 00:09:40

Yeah, Triada is spelled T R I A D A. And it's a four star hotel.

Speaker: 00:09:47

And it has 4.

Speaker: 00:09:48

2 out of 5 stars, which as you know is sort of on the fence there.

Speaker: 00:09:53

Like, I was like, I won't not stay at a 4.

Speaker: 00:09:55

2.

Speaker: 00:09:56

So I thought, let me look at the reviews and see what we have going on here, okay?

Speaker: 00:10:02

And I found this review by Carrie C. It's a two out of five stars on Google Reviews.

Speaker: 00:10:11

Here we go.

Speaker: 00:10:14

We've stayed here six times.

Speaker: 00:10:17

Wow.

Speaker: 00:10:18

It's not a cookie cutter hotel at all.

Speaker: 00:10:20

It's really different.

Speaker: 00:10:22

We've stayed in the queen suite four times.

Speaker: 00:10:27

Our last stay, however, will be our last visit.

Speaker: 00:10:32

The staff here repeatedly lied about something.

Speaker: 00:10:35

And I just can't get past that.

Speaker: 00:10:38

I've overlooked many negative details at this place because of its charm.

Speaker: 00:10:43

But now, after the lies, I'm done.

Speaker: 00:10:49

I will never stay here again.

Speaker: 00:10:56

Well, this reminds me of a previous episode about dangling a carrot.

Speaker: 00:11:01

That's right.

Speaker: 00:11:02

And, um, I was hoping we would get into it.

Speaker: 00:11:08

But to reference, I wrote it.

Speaker: 00:11:10

Lied about something.

Speaker: 00:11:13

Oh my god.

Speaker: 00:11:14

Lied.

Speaker: 00:11:14

And then later after these lies, okay, you've gone to the effort to go to Google

Speaker: 00:11:21

Reviews to spill the tea and you're going to get that close like you're, you're

Speaker: 00:11:26

on the edge of the branch and you're not going to jump like what, what Carrie see.

Speaker: 00:11:32

What, what's, what is your purpose?

Speaker: 00:11:34

Why did you spend the amount of time to say that you stayed here six times and

Speaker: 00:11:39

that you stayed in the Queen's suite four of those times to not stick the landing?

Speaker: 00:11:45

It's very frustrating.

Speaker: 00:11:49

You took the words right out of my mouth, Trey.

Speaker: 00:11:52

It's such a waste.

Speaker: 00:11:53

I mean, it's a waste.

Speaker: 00:11:54

It's a waste of time and energy.

Speaker: 00:11:55

It's such a waste.

Speaker: 00:11:56

And it's also just like, it's, it's.

Speaker: 00:11:58

To me, when I first read it, it was hilarious because I'm like, because

Speaker: 00:12:03

of the lie, like they repeatedly lied to like an Agatha Christie.

Speaker: 00:12:09

Like what?

Speaker: 00:12:10

Like, honestly, I wanted to take a moment with you to just imagine just

Speaker: 00:12:17

for a moment just to dig into our psyche and try and pull out what you imagine.

Speaker: 00:12:22

Try.

Speaker: 00:12:22

What's the lie?

Speaker: 00:12:24

Well, I'm, that's, okay, that's a good question.

Speaker: 00:12:25

You watch

Speaker: 00:12:26

Pretty Little Liars and Pretty, what, what's the lie try?

Speaker: 00:12:29

So many lies on that show.

Speaker: 00:12:30

So many

Speaker: 00:12:30

lies.

Speaker: 00:12:32

You know, what could one lie about maybe if you like wanted an upgrade and

Speaker: 00:12:42

they're like, oh, there's not available.

Speaker: 00:12:43

And then you realize there's like no one in the hotel room or lied about something,

Speaker: 00:12:52

the rates or the pool hours that tends to be very popular in the reviews.

Speaker: 00:12:57

Maybe, like, uh, uh, maybe they wanted more towels and they were told they

Speaker: 00:13:03

couldn't get more towels or, um, maybe they said that the room had been cleaned

Speaker: 00:13:09

and it looked like it hadn't been cleaned.

Speaker: 00:13:11

Maybe they said that they were going to give them like all

Speaker: 00:13:15

caffeinated coffee and no decaf.

Speaker: 00:13:19

Maybe they said that because they were valued guests, they

Speaker: 00:13:21

wouldn't charge them for like the drinks that are in the fridge.

Speaker: 00:13:26

I mean, this is the problem with this review is that we could, we could

Speaker: 00:13:29

continue to hypothesize forever.

Speaker: 00:13:30

I think that's something interesting.

Speaker: 00:13:31

Like,

Speaker: 00:13:31

I think that what would make me that mad, like, if they told me that I'm a whatever

Speaker: 00:13:36

member and so I don't have to pay for valet and then I went to check out and

Speaker: 00:13:41

I was charged for like a week of valet and I'd stayed there like six other times

Speaker: 00:13:46

and they never charged me for valet.

Speaker: 00:13:48

I've never, it's preposterous.

Speaker: 00:13:51

And now they're like refusing to take that off the bill.

Speaker: 00:13:56

I mean, we could do this for hours.

Speaker: 00:14:00

So as this review itself stands, any valuable new or unique information,

Speaker: 00:14:05

I do appreciate that they come out with their expertness because

Speaker: 00:14:10

they've stayed there many times.

Speaker: 00:14:12

They have an authority from experience.

Speaker: 00:14:14

So I appreciate that.

Speaker: 00:14:16

I was, I was excited.

Speaker: 00:14:17

I was like rubbing my hands cause I was like, let's get into it.

Speaker: 00:14:21

Spelling grammar for what they went into is fine.

Speaker: 00:14:24

Fine.

Speaker: 00:14:26

Truthful shady.

Speaker: 00:14:28

I think it's shady.

Speaker: 00:14:29

I just think it's shady.

Speaker: 00:14:30

Like.

Speaker: 00:14:30

Say it, you know, because like we could have talked about this for hours

Speaker: 00:14:35

and now maybe we're assigning all these scenarios That are incorrect.

Speaker: 00:14:39

So like it's shady.

Speaker: 00:14:41

Just say it

Speaker: 00:14:42

also It seems shady to me because I wonder if they're being manipulative

Speaker: 00:14:49

by not going into it, right?

Speaker: 00:14:51

That's what I'm saying because they don't want To piss the hotel off.

Speaker: 00:14:55

They want the hotel to see and then communicate with Keri Sea and,

Speaker: 00:14:59

and, and be like, well, I didn't want to air the dirty laundry.

Speaker: 00:15:02

So give me four nights for free.

Speaker: 00:15:03

Or what, like something feels even more shady about not.

Speaker: 00:15:07

Going into it, um, common, typical, I don't, I don't

Speaker: 00:15:12

expect to be lied to by a hotel.

Speaker: 00:15:16

Yeah, I mean, I don't know if it's common or typical because I don't

Speaker: 00:15:19

feel like we have enough context.

Speaker: 00:15:21

Unfortunately.

Speaker: 00:15:22

Also, it's a two

Speaker: 00:15:22

star.

Speaker: 00:15:23

It's a two star.

Speaker: 00:15:24

It's a two star because you've stayed there six times and you've

Speaker: 00:15:27

stayed in this one suite four times.

Speaker: 00:15:31

You know, because we do this so often, you were saying like it was funny.

Speaker: 00:15:36

It's not even funny to me anymore.

Speaker: 00:15:38

It's like kind of, it's kind of enraging to me to get to do this because it's,

Speaker: 00:15:43

it's just, it's a waste of energy and it's a waste of time on all parties.

Speaker: 00:15:48

But I'm entertained because it's like half of the story.

Speaker: 00:15:54

Would this have an impact or a deal breaking?

Speaker: 00:15:56

No, I'm mad at Carrie.

Speaker: 00:15:58

I'm not mad.

Speaker: 00:15:59

No, this didn't

Speaker: 00:15:59

make this, I ended up getting a better price somewhere else.

Speaker: 00:16:03

And so I didn't stay at this hotel, but I would have stayed

Speaker: 00:16:06

here based off of this review.

Speaker: 00:16:07

There's nothing that Carrie said that made me feel like, and if

Speaker: 00:16:10

anything, it was like, oh, it's quirky and it's not cookie cutter.

Speaker: 00:16:14

And the screen suite is great.

Speaker: 00:16:17

Like there was more information that was positive than negative.

Speaker: 00:16:20

Right.

Speaker: 00:16:21

So it wouldn't make the impact is I would still stay here.

Speaker: 00:16:25

You're mad.

Speaker: 00:16:26

I'm angry at Carrie.

Speaker: 00:16:28

Yeah.

Speaker: 00:16:30

Okay.

Speaker: 00:16:30

Well, I think you should take that rage and put it into your crowning

Speaker: 00:16:34

all right, so let's Rate and review this as as it stands Chelsey and I

Speaker: 00:16:42

each have our own set of zero to five crown cards in an effort to be fair

Speaker: 00:16:45

and not influence one another We will simultaneously Reveal our rating.

Speaker: 00:16:49

Okay The queens are tabulating.

Speaker: 00:16:53

Time

Speaker: 00:16:57

for school.

Speaker: 00:16:57

Okay,

Speaker: 00:16:59

interesting.

Speaker: 00:16:59

Trey's holding up one crown, I'm holding up two crowns.

Speaker: 00:17:03

Trey, you go first.

Speaker: 00:17:04

Why one crown for Carrie C?

Speaker: 00:17:07

Besides that you hate her.

Speaker: 00:17:08

It's just, it is alerting a red flag.

Speaker: 00:17:11

So like, there's that.

Speaker: 00:17:13

But, to say that they lied about something and like, now you'll never

Speaker: 00:17:17

say it because of the lies, is sort of like okay, well what are the lies?

Speaker: 00:17:21

Like, it's just an incomplete sentence.

Speaker: 00:17:25

So that's frustrating to me one crown because I feel like it would

Speaker: 00:17:29

at least it's like alerting me that maybe they're dishonest And I

Speaker: 00:17:33

appreciate that they've stayed there.

Speaker: 00:17:35

So like, you know, but ultimately I'm frustrated.

Speaker: 00:17:38

So why did you do an extra crown?

Speaker: 00:17:40

Why'd you say two crowns?

Speaker: 00:17:42

There was a lot of information in here.

Speaker: 00:17:45

I kind of felt like I was like volleying a little both carry I'm

Speaker: 00:17:48

like you want to give two crowns.

Speaker: 00:17:49

I'm gonna give you two crowns back like You gave two crowns worth of

Speaker: 00:17:53

information and you were, you lost three crowns worth of credibility

Speaker: 00:17:58

when you didn't indulge in the lies.

Speaker: 00:18:02

Do it or don't do it.

Speaker: 00:18:03

The, the like teetering the line is very frustrating and just not review Queenie.

Speaker: 00:18:10

So two crowns.

Speaker: 00:18:12

Harry C.

Speaker: 00:18:14

Don't do it little girl.

Speaker: 00:18:16

Don't

Speaker: 00:18:16

do it.

Speaker: 00:18:17

Tell us the lies.

Speaker: 00:18:20

Tell us the dirty little lies.

Speaker: 00:18:23

There's not a reply.

Speaker: 00:18:25

You're kidding.

Speaker: 00:18:26

No.

Speaker: 00:18:27

Are you kidding?

Speaker: 00:18:28

No.

Speaker: 00:18:29

Oh my god.

Speaker: 00:18:29

I'm even more angry.

Speaker: 00:18:30

This whole time I'm like winking at you, like, all right, let's get there.

Speaker: 00:18:36

Are you kidding?

Speaker: 00:18:36

I'm so mad.

Speaker: 00:18:38

Now I'm mad at the hotel for not replying.

Speaker: 00:18:40

I

Speaker: 00:18:41

know.

Speaker: 00:18:42

Oh my God, I'm so mad.

Speaker: 00:18:42

To be fair,

Speaker: 00:18:43

when I like checked this review recently, and it was only written three months

Speaker: 00:18:47

ago, so there is, I can check back.

Speaker: 00:18:50

It could take a while to reply, you think?

Speaker: 00:18:52

Like it could take a few months?

Speaker: 00:18:54

What is Autograph Collection?

Speaker: 00:18:56

Isn't that like a Hilton or a Hyatt or?

Speaker: 00:18:59

I think it's like one of the hotel groups.

Speaker: 00:19:02

Cause that makes me think that there is a corporate entity that's

Speaker: 00:19:05

probably in charge of going through.

Speaker: 00:19:08

But like if you're a corporate entity and you're not hands on in the building, you

Speaker: 00:19:11

wouldn't know what this is referencing.

Speaker: 00:19:14

Um, oh I'm so angry.

Speaker: 00:19:15

There might be a reply, I'll check back in another episode and maybe an after

Speaker: 00:19:19

show and I hope that they'll, they'll take the opportunity to, to, to win back.

Speaker: 00:19:26

I'm so mad.

Speaker: 00:19:27

Sorry, I, I hit that sound cue without the lead up because I was

Speaker: 00:19:29

like, I need this, this, I was

Speaker: 00:19:31

like, I had a feeling too.

Speaker: 00:19:32

I was like, Trey thinks that there's a reply, so he's

Speaker: 00:19:34

rushing through this review.

Speaker: 00:19:35

But that was it.

Speaker: 00:19:36

That was literally it.

Speaker: 00:19:39

Um, I just thought it was a good example of what not to do, guys.

Speaker: 00:19:45

This is, it's like, it's kind of textbook.

Speaker: 00:19:48

It's like if Trey and I. are your professors today.

Speaker: 00:19:52

Here's what not to do in a review.

Speaker: 00:19:55

People ask us all the time, review queens, what should I not do?

Speaker: 00:19:59

What, what, like, if you had to give me a tip.

Speaker: 00:20:02

I would say don't start with if I could give this zero stars.

Speaker: 00:20:05

Yeah, never.

Speaker: 00:20:06

It's so annoying.

Speaker: 00:20:08

You know, the reason, and just to break it down one more little step

Speaker: 00:20:10

here, the reason it's important to spill the tea is because it may not

Speaker: 00:20:17

be equally as important to me reading the review as it is to you writing it.

Speaker: 00:20:23

Give me all of the information so that I can interpolate what's important.

Speaker: 00:20:29

Did I use that word wrong?

Speaker: 00:20:31

Interpret.

Speaker: 00:20:32

What's interpolate mean?

Speaker: 00:20:33

I

Speaker: 00:20:33

don't think that's a word.

Speaker: 00:20:35

Oh.

Speaker: 00:20:36

I'm from South Carolina.

Speaker: 00:20:38

Just because they may have lied about the snack machine or something

Speaker: 00:20:42

and like, and I'm not going to use a snack machine, so I don't care.

Speaker: 00:20:45

Even the guy that complained about the pool of several episodes back,

Speaker: 00:20:50

there was a guy on the show and he thought, assumed that there was a pool

Speaker: 00:20:56

at this location of a hotel in San Francisco, and he was livid about it.

Speaker: 00:21:00

But at least he gave us the information so we know that there's no ghoul there.

Speaker: 00:21:05

Right.

Speaker: 00:21:06

What did we learn here today?

Speaker: 00:21:08

Class?

Speaker: 00:21:11

Nothing.

Speaker: 00:21:13

Nothing about Triada.

Speaker: 00:21:17

All right.

Speaker: 00:21:17

Well, that was fun.

Speaker: 00:21:20

Enraging.

Speaker: 00:21:21

I love

Speaker: 00:21:21

infuriating Trey, um, and in an effort to regroup Trey, do

Speaker: 00:21:27

you want to take this moment To induct someone as royal highness.

Speaker: 00:21:32

I think we've reached the most regal portion of our show and it's time

Speaker: 00:21:40

Yes

Speaker: 00:21:41

okay, so I I don't even know how I originally found this Instagram account

Speaker: 00:21:48

But it's something that I followed probably years ago and it's at puppy

Speaker: 00:21:55

songs Chelsey, do you know this account?

Speaker: 00:21:59

I don't think, are they dog songs for puppies?

Speaker: 00:22:03

Yes, good deducing.

Speaker: 00:22:04

Good, um, what did I say?

Speaker: 00:22:06

What's the word I made up?

Speaker: 00:22:08

Inter Good interpolating.

Speaker: 00:22:09

Interpolating.

Speaker: 00:22:10

Interpolations.

Speaker: 00:22:12

Okay, at Puppy Songs, you may have heard, because they're little

Speaker: 00:22:16

soundbites that sort of go viral on TikTok and on Instagram, this creator

Speaker: 00:22:22

had sad face, two senior chihuahuas.

Speaker: 00:22:27

One passed away and the other one just recently passed away as well.

Speaker: 00:22:30

But, they would make these really funny videos of like, the little like

Speaker: 00:22:34

dogs, like just like, being dogs.

Speaker: 00:22:37

And one very famous is, My lips get stuck on my teeth.

Speaker: 00:22:43

My lips get stuck on my teeth.

Speaker: 00:22:46

And it's just like a video of like this old, like, black

Speaker: 00:22:49

and grey chihuahua like this.

Speaker: 00:22:50

That's so funny.

Speaker: 00:22:51

And then other ones it's like, I puppied all day long.

Speaker: 00:22:54

But he's like an actual jingle writer.

Speaker: 00:22:56

Yeah.

Speaker: 00:22:57

And has since created a Spotify account so you can hear like the songs on loop.

Speaker: 00:23:01

They're all so cute.

Speaker: 00:23:03

I get lost because they're earwormy, so they're very catchy.

Speaker: 00:23:08

The dogs are like hilarious looking older senior dogs, you know.

Speaker: 00:23:13

I have chihuahuas, so I have an affinity for that look.

Speaker: 00:23:17

Um, but I appreciate the humor.

Speaker: 00:23:20

And then the creativity and the skill like it's a beautiful

Speaker: 00:23:23

marriage of all of those things.

Speaker: 00:23:25

So I implore everyone go and follow at puppy songs on TikTok on Instagram.

Speaker: 00:23:32

Um, it, it is very, it is very heartwarming.

Speaker: 00:23:36

And, um, then you just like start singing them at your dogs and

Speaker: 00:23:40

they're like, give me a tree.

Speaker: 00:23:43

So for that reason, I must induct, induct at Puppy Songs as my royal highness today.

Speaker: 00:23:49

Share some

Speaker: 00:23:49

laughs for her.

Speaker: 00:23:52

Okay.

Speaker: 00:23:52

I'm going to have to, I wrote that down for myself.

Speaker: 00:23:54

I'm going to have to check that out.

Speaker: 00:23:55

You're

Speaker: 00:23:55

going to love.

Speaker: 00:23:56

You're going to steal all those songs.

Speaker: 00:23:57

Okay.

Speaker: 00:23:58

Great.

Speaker: 00:23:58

Yes.

Speaker: 00:23:58

I

Speaker: 00:23:59

really should now.

Speaker: 00:24:00

I know the, the tea.

Speaker: 00:24:02

Okay.

Speaker: 00:24:02

Speaker: 00:24:02

Speaker: 00:24:04

Well, we did a Queens.

Speaker: 00:24:06

That's another round on the RUA.

Speaker: 00:24:10

What?

Speaker: 00:24:11

I can't finish it.

Speaker: 00:24:13

I can't.

Speaker: 00:24:13

I can't finish.

Speaker: 00:24:15

I can't reach the distance like Carrie.

Speaker: 00:24:17

I'll start to tell

Speaker: 00:24:20

RQ Ferris wheel.

Speaker: 00:24:21

You can't even call it an RQ Ferris wheel because There was no

Speaker: 00:24:24

RQs to be found in this episode.

Speaker: 00:24:28

I've done almost 200 of these episodes, but that's all I'm going to tell you.

Speaker: 00:24:31

Oh, wow.

Speaker: 00:24:32

Okay.

Now on today's after show pod, Chelsey and I, we are going to be digging deep.

Speaker: 00:25:02

We're going to go all the way to Scotland.

Speaker: 00:25:05

Okay.

Speaker: 00:25:05

What's a famous site in Scotland out of curiosity?

Speaker: 00:25:08

Like, what would you think?

Speaker: 00:25:10

I don't know these things.

Speaker: 00:25:12

Is it like

Speaker: 00:25:13

a castle or

Speaker: 00:25:14

something?

Speaker: 00:25:15

No.

Speaker: 00:25:16

Okay.

Speaker: 00:25:17

Chelsey and I are going to be rating and reviewing a one star trip

Speaker: 00:25:20

advisor review for the Loch Ness.

Speaker: 00:25:24

I was gonna say Loch Ness, but I didn't really know what it was,

Speaker: 00:25:28

but I'm excited to find out.

Speaker: 00:25:30

I wonder why this was said.

Speaker: 00:25:35

I'm fuming!

Speaker: 00:25:36

I'm livid!

Speaker: 00:25:37

Vicariousy!

Speaker: 00:25:38

Give me my bagpipes, I'm livid and I'm fuming!

Speaker: 00:25:42

Where's my toe, my toe wiggling?

Speaker: 00:25:44

Oh my god.

Speaker: 00:25:47

I wonder too, Trey.

Speaker: 00:26:26

Have you ever been to Scotland?

Speaker: 00:26:28

No, me either.

Speaker: 00:26:31

I have a really funny story.

Speaker: 00:26:32

I wonder if I've told this before.

Speaker: 00:26:34

Um, you know, I'm married to a Jewish person and my mom like had never been

Speaker: 00:26:40

north of the Mason Dixon line until she came to New York to visit me.

Speaker: 00:26:44

And so we were like, you know, in the back of a cab talking about funny things.

Speaker: 00:26:48

And My, my, my husband was like, Peggy, my mom's name, have

Speaker: 00:26:53

you ever heard of lox before?

Speaker: 00:26:57

Meaning like lox, like onions and eggs, lox and bagels, like a Jewish delicacy.

Speaker: 00:27:02

It's like a salmon, right?

Speaker: 00:27:05

And my mom goes.

Speaker: 00:27:07

Yeah, of course, Loch Ness Monster.

Speaker: 00:27:11

And we repeat that very often, so as I found this review for

Speaker: 00:27:16

the Loch Ness I thought, yeah of course, Loch Ness Monster.

Speaker: 00:27:19

That's what I

Speaker: 00:27:20

thought too, that's why I didn't say anything earlier, that's

Speaker: 00:27:23

so funny, I can't wait to learn what the Loch Ness actually is.

Speaker: 00:27:28

And we're gonna get an actual review today.

Speaker: 00:27:30

Okay, great.

Speaker: 00:27:31

On the after show.

Speaker: 00:27:32

Are you so mad at me?

Speaker: 00:27:34

I'm not mad at you at all.

Speaker: 00:27:35

I'm mad.

Speaker: 00:27:36

I'm, I'm disappointed.

Speaker: 00:27:37

I'm sorry.

Speaker: 00:27:38

Not in you, in Carrie.

Speaker: 00:27:39

I'm disappointed in Carrie too.

Speaker: 00:27:41

It's funnier that there was no ending.

Speaker: 00:27:43

That's actually very funny.

Speaker: 00:27:44

Right.

Speaker: 00:27:44

Like I really pushed the, the sound cue cause I was like, I gotta, I

Speaker: 00:27:49

gotta know what they're lying about.

Speaker: 00:27:50

Cause you also said these things we came up with aren't real.

Speaker: 00:27:55

Or you said something that was like alluding to the fact that

Speaker: 00:27:58

you knew what the lie was about.

Speaker: 00:28:00

But you didn't know.

Speaker: 00:28:02

I didn't know, but I'm just saying, like, there was no real information there.

Speaker: 00:28:06

There was not, like, you know, like, it's just

Speaker: 00:28:09

You know what?

Speaker: 00:28:10

What?

Speaker: 00:28:12

You know what Carrie is short for?

Speaker: 00:28:14

What?

Speaker: 00:28:16

I just realized.

Speaker: 00:28:17

What?

Speaker: 00:28:18

Carrie is short for

Speaker: 00:28:23

You're right.

Speaker: 00:28:24

Sorry,

Speaker: 00:28:25

Carrie.

Speaker: 00:28:25

Alright, bye.

Speaker: 00:28:25

Bye, Queens.

Speaker: 00:28:25

Defend yourself, if you want.

Speaker: 00:28:28

Yeah, why don't you defend yourself when you write the

Speaker: 00:28:30

review the first time, Carrie?

Speaker: 00:28:33

Bye, Queens.

Speaker: 00:28:33

Bye.

Speaker: 00:28:41
