    Hey Ear Scouts! My name is Jacoby! I was the guy that stopped at talked with you outside of Guardians a couple of days ago at Epcot! Thanks again so much for your videos! You helped us have a magical 1st time, Disney World experience! Thanks so much for your content!

    Rob, do you or Erick have chef or culinary training? You evaluate food like a Food Network judge!

      No culinary training, but I sure do love food. 😂 My day job is actually at a company that makes very fancy cookware. I used to be in the marketing department and we worked with a lot of celebrity chefs and hosted cooking classes with them. I definitely picked up some stuff from doing that and going to different festivals and such. Thanks for the sweet comment. 😊

    It looks like we were there at the same time! Bummer that we didn't get to run into you, my girlfriend and I would have loved to be able to say hi. We spent many an evening watching your videos before the trip, and sort of joked about running into you two. Little did we know how close we were haha.

    We just got back from our trip. All your Genie+ tips helped immensely! Thanks you so much for your clear and thorough explanations! I saw you at Hollywood Studios…wanted to thank you in person, but you were with family and didn’t want to bother you, but thank you for helping me make this trip the best Disney World trip my family has ever had!!! Genie+ glitched a bunch on our Epcot day, but I knew what to do to get us through every experience.

    Hey Ear Scouts, just gotta say your food reviews are the real MVP of the UA-cam scene! 🌟 Unlike those other phony, nameless Disney reviewers who are just an arm and a hand posing with food, you bring the Magic Kingdom vibes to life. Your reviews are like a thrilling ride on Space Mountain - always full of surprises and never a dull moment. It's like you've got the culinary insights of Remy from Ratatouille combined with the storytelling magic of Haunted Mansion.
    Let's be real, you're not just taking us on a culinary journey, you're giving us a VIP tour through EPCOT's flavors with the fun of a ride on Kali River Rapids- without the soaking wet aftermath, of course! 🎢 Your channel is the G.O.A.T., and we're all here grazing in the greatness of your content.
    100K subscribers, Let's GO!
    Keep flying higher than Soarin’, because with content like yours, the sky's the limit. 🚀🎉 #EarScoutsToInfinityAndBeyond

      Wow! This comment was like Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride - there was a fun and surprising analogy at every turn. But in the end, it was more like Expedition Everest - it made me excited about the sky high adventures ahead.
      And much like Everest is my favorite ride at Walt Disney World, this was my favorite comment to read. I even performed it for Erick as a dramatic monologue and he quite enjoyed it, as well. 😆
      Thanks for bringing a smile to both of our faces. 😊

Stinks that it’s chilly for your visit to escape the cold, but it sure is nice to have a break from the heat for those of us who live here in Orlando. 😅 Hope you have a great time at the festival!

    Man! That was a fast 50 minutes! "It's over already??" We just bought our Trevor Carlton photobooth Mickey/Minnie signed LE print online a few weeks ago. If we had the room (and the money), we'd cover the walls in Disney art. They're all so much fun to look at...and here I sit, can't draw a straight line with a ruler.

    • @EarScouts
      @EarScouts  5 місяців тому

      We definitely missed some of our favorites like the hot chocolate flight, but we were surprised by how much we liked a lot of the items that remained - several were better than last year when we had them. There were definitely some duds and a few times where I think we just ordered at the wrong time and got a bad batch like with the risotto. Were there any items in particular you were really disappointed with? We actually got the grilled cheeses at POP again last night and the vegetarian one was embarrassingly bad. Burnt black and left under a heat lamp until the bread was hard. But when we had it before as we made the video, it was delicious. 🤷‍♂️

    Off topic sorry. But I have a question about Genie +. I just want to be clear I understand this. If I Book a ride at 7 AM, park opens at 9 AM and my ride is scheduled for 9:30 AM. then as soon as I swipe into the ride with GP I can immediately book another ride even though two hours after opening hasn’t occurred? Also in this scenario if my first ride is 1115, then two hours after park opening, which would be 11 AM, I can book a second ride, but then at 11:15 when I swipe into my first ride can I then book another (third) ride? 😊

I’m guessing a regular stamp wouldn’t cut it. If you’ll be in the parks anytime soon, we’d be happy to give you one!
