IYKYK
Digest
Brian and Kristen start the episode by expressing their annoyance with the phrase "if you know, you know" on social media, arguing that it's a pompous way to make oneself seem superior to others. They give examples of how the phrase is often used in a meaningless way, like when someone posts a picture of their food and says "if you know, you know" without explaining what they're referring to. They then move on to discuss their frustration with Disney's rising prices and declining quality of experiences. They point out that Disney has increased prices significantly since 2017, while simultaneously making many aspects of the experience more expensive, such as parking, transportation, and even FastPasses. They argue that Disney has essentially priced out many people, including themselves, from enjoying a Disney vacation. They also criticize Disney's new FastPass system, which they believe is designed to make people pay more for a premium experience. They conclude by saying that they won't be going back to Disney parks until they change their pricing and quality of experience. The episode ends with a call to action for listeners to follow them on social media and get free stickers.
