Episode 89 - The Magic Was Wasted On You

[Mendelson]

Wow, Ian was cranky.

I have not been to Trader Sam's, but I was looking forward to the unique menu offerings (which I will not get to see, apparently). I was surprised to hear Ian say that sometimes he just wants a cheeseburger, when so often we Disney fans complain about the homogenization of the menus. In fact, just a couple minutes later he was complaining that all the breakfast food is just the same, regardless of where you go.

Discouraged to hear about the FUBAR race, as my wife is planning on her first RunDisney event next year.

But I really enjoyed listening and am happy to have another podcast up!

I was, and continue to be, cranky about the current state of things in WDW. It's an absolute mess in just about every way you can mess something up.

That said, you probably make a fair point about talking out of both sides of my mouth a bit. I don't actually remember the particular quote you reference, but honestly I think it might have been a throwaway comment I made in response to something John said. I didn't actually have any issue with the Trader Sam menu.

Honest question: do you plan to stop going? Have you reached that point yet?

We weren't talking about Trader Sam's. We were discussing Jungle Navigation Co new menu.
