We thank for tuning in this Monday morning March 2nd 2026 Hmm. I'm John Paul flame joined by Jason Bishop what up coughing out of long to start the show But you know what I commend you hit the cough button. I got to try usually do Johnny Kigsaw bills here. Hello. What's up? And look who's back from Orlando. Hey Carlton Bickel. Yeah, what's up, man

1:04Away to Orlando. It was a little dicey. We all you had to change our flight once and there was a chance We'd possibly have to change it again Oh yesterday. Yeah, cuz it's just you know, it was the late day We had to cancel our 530 flight. We got on the 630 Little bit dicey of whether or not we're gonna make that I need to tweet about it or tell you about it But on Thursday we had a six hour delay At BWI we just got into the airport and I always give ourselves like an hour So that we can get in there get some food. I like to have food in my stomach before I get on an airplane And then I like to get a gatorate or something. So I always give ourselves plenty of time. This time you got to have two meals Dude and soon as we sit down my daughter got Chick-fil-A. I got our bees. I could slice for our bees. So good Beef and cheddar No, I actually get a rubin at our bees. Okay, the downsize No, just the rubin nothing any fries. They do have the meats the downside is they don't like the bread is a little soft

2:05They don't it's not crispy. I think they just put it in a microwave or something they pre-make it and they kind of reheat it in the microwave So it's a little bit of a downside to it But delicious nonetheless. We literally just sit down open the tin foil or whatever it is on your sandwich And my wife gets an alert the the plane has been pulled for maintenance in Tampa And they have to find a plane and it looks like you're not gonna Fly out of there It's a win six p.m. So we're sitting down there. It's 11 o'clock Just think about going home or did you go home? No Because they said, you know, it could come they could find a plane in DC and it could fly out of two So you know, just where they got to find a hostage. You're kind of held off. It's kind of hard to just find a spare plane What are you gonna do drive home and sit home for two hours or it's just you're really in a bind you might get four hours at home Yeah, I thought well, maybe we could go see a movie But you just that all of a sudden if they find a plane you got to rush back right We're already through security every we already had our we already has stuff like checked in right because we were supposed to board the plane in 45 minutes

3:06so Because I even thought well, can they just get us on a flight? What airport was this? It was a BWI. It's first time I've ever experienced a six-hour delay and I I think that must have felt like it 24 hours You know, thank God for phones and everything and it chargers and you can sit there and just mindlessly scroll and watch YouTube videos But it was painful. So you were supposed to arrive in Orlando Thursday afternoon and maybe like 2.30 So that you arrived late leaving Thursday 9.30 right yeah right to the hotel. Yeah, yeah, I mean just a Massive I cut into your Disney trip. Well, you know, I'm out of Disney guy definitely not, but it just got it just a damper on it Exhausted Tournament went okay. We played the number one seed Had a struggle the first set second set played tough had some confidence and then there's just so many great players We went two on the one the first day, but then one and two second day and then lost a great Miami team We lost a team we lost to the number one seed and we lost the team that beat the number one seed

4:10Um just great players everywhere. I was telling these guys. There's a 15-year-old girl. There was a revelation to me But all the girls know name is Carrie knots She plays for a five. That's it Atlantis top club Mm-hmm, and she's a unicorn. She's like 64. Oh, they're already saying she's gonna get a million dollar in IL deal She's playing 15 year old. She's playing She's playing up a year. I guess she's 15 playing in the 16s my daughter's in 17s But she's on the college national team already player the year over like College age players. Yeah, and she's only a sophomore. She's 50 freshman freshman. She's 15 years old Just think about how good she's gonna be in three years. Okay. It's she's the best. She's the best girl She's the best high school player. I've seen it might be six five six six 10 12 years of going to these tournaments Just an absolute unicorn and you know to a point where in the volleyball world she's famous. I guess in all these little kids Are going up and just getting a picture taken. Yeah, she's a star. You know, you have games Friday Saturday and then nothing Sunday No, no Sunday, too. Oh, yeah, three days of games. Oh, yeah

5:11That's why I didn't know when I was gonna make it back. Speed of Disney. I saw this yesterday Online and it was a guy talking about the cost of Disney And he said last year my family went to France and Switzerland for a week And we went skiing every day bought all the gear Went to Michelin restaurant stayed in really fancy hotels And it cost half of what is tripped the Disney was. Yeah, it's expensive Think about that and I'll tell you I went to Switzerland. That is an expensive country. Yeah, Switzerland. Yeah, not cheap Yeah, and Orlando doubles it Well, not necessarily Orlando Orlando would go to Orlando Magic game Well, I don't say this and listen, we were fine. We didn't do any of the Disney stuff But it's just just life is more expensive now. Yeah, I'm gonna dinner for five at a Mexican place. Yeah, so nothing fancy and believe me the food one that great

6:12It was like 206 people Five people and we got you know, but he did nothing nobody got anything fake. Hope you got a case. Oh, for that price You got the case. Oh, not good great case. I must have some margaritas one margaritas one mark. That's what expensive though real one Because I don't get from I don't do pro. Yeah, I got a rock to solve. Yeah, but um, I do for this thing is it's like lunch Good the average and I'm so sick of eating out. Thank God I can go home and just make myself like a sandwich Right, you know what I mean you would you I mean you wait out for four days three days. Yeah. Yeah, yeah It's just it's too much Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Yeah, just eating out every meal and you bathe it's got the point now. We're basically A fast food meal for the most part like fast casual. It's basically 20 bucks a person. Yeah, the most part close It's basically 20 bucks, you know, my daughter will get like a Case of the air something in a drink and he didn't that's 18 bucks. I get whatever I get it's 18 19 20 about you know It's like you're spending every meal for the three of us. You're spending minimum of $60. It just

7:13We have to I hop unless you're going to fast food. I'm not an I hop guy. Those are basically fast foods I'm not an I hop guy I hop should be reasonable. I have I thought you know, it was $68 for three of us my daughter got pancakes. I got a what did I get the um always get the egg with the holidays the Oh, he's got the classic eggs Benedict. Yeah, wasn't that expense like 12 bucks. Yeah, I don't know what my wife got Because they charge probably three ninety five for an orange juice Yeah, tell me this for coffee. All these places. I got chong drinks. I think it orange Yeah, a couple of coffees four bucks whatever coffee is telling you this if you're charging me four dollars for coffee I'm drinking about five cups Cuz I'm getting Same with the soda you better be bringing refills. Yeah, I don't need I shouldn't even have to ask you for refills When you see there's a quarter to a half of the soda left there should be a fresh soda on the way Especially if you're paying four or five bucks $68 for three of you that I just it's just kind of that way of every meal

8:15I wonder what that would be up here. I would say it's probably similar. I'm not saying it's more expensive there than here I'm saying it's just like in 2026. Yeah, it's just a lot more expensive than it used to be kind of depends on you because I can tell you I went Dozens of times probably to I hop it was one of our go-tos, you know, Dylan being a picky eater And it'd be the three of us often like if Jess was working the evening Let's go to I hop and you could you could do three people for 30 $40 if you just be hard to today It'd be hard to today But if you just get like the pancakes with sauce and you got the three pancakes, yep, and bacon right correct And no glass water. Yeah, they jack it up telling you it was 68 bucks. I got eggs Benedict and coffee my wife had something to go It's just you know, it'd be good to get home and have like a peanut butter gel. Keep those costs low Well, here's what I know we be yeah, that's true. It's something gross about it. Here's what I know You're one week away from the commanders making some free agent moves.
