Keep in mind that some of the adults who are obsessed with Disney tend to be neurodivergent. I know a very intelligent woman, a veterinarian, who has mild autism and she absolutely adores going to Disney. She squeals with excitement as if she were 5, and doesn't perceive how odd her behavior is to others.
When Frankie said “my daughter starting making overtures of “I have to go before I’m 7” as the dad of a 5 year old…. Frankie thank you. Thank you for teaching me that “overtures” is the word I’ve been looking for to describe my daughter’s Disneyland demands. 😂
I literally lol’d at the “grown ass woman” meeting the character 🤣🤣🤣 you’re 100% right, though.
I stood in line by myself to meet Chewie, and getting a growly hug and snuggle from him made my day, so who the hell am I to judge, ya know?
Granted an Eric Cartman is not the toughest impression, but wow Frankie's little off-the-cuff one was on point.
I shat my pants waiting for it’s a small world ride when I was 8 after a del taco lunch. Still went on the ride despite the smell and mess.
That song is like brown note to me now

Gross yo
It’s good you have SO much time to spend with your kid(s). I know other UA-cam personalities that can’t manage that.
The Haunted Mansion and Pirates ride at Disneyland are great. When the ghost spirits rise up from the graveyard? The environmental effects in Pirates? Come on. There’s a Mickey railroad picnic whatever ride at DL that is amazing.
Your take on how the Magic Kingdom should not be for adults is spot on. It’s the only park in Florida that doesn’t serve any type of alcoholic drink. Even in concept much of it has not been changed and adapted compared to some of the newer parks like Epcot and Hollywood. I think you would enjoy the Animal Kingdom/Nintendo World next time you go just based on some of your callouts from this. Lots of free play stuff for kids and adults in both of those parks.
Orlando local here. When you mentioned you were coming down here in January my IMMEDIATE thought was "Oh man he's gonna clown us for our big winter jackets we wear in our mild winter" and I was not disappointed. The trade-off for being cold weather wimps is our insane ability to withstand heat and humidity to the point where our eyeballs begin to boil in our heads. Also sometimes when it gets cold enough, it'll stun the wild iguanas and they'll just fall out of the trees until they thaw out and go about their business.
Your eyeballs actually start to boil? My gawd
I live in Delco Pa (I’m not originally from here), but so many of the people I talk to here go to Disney World EVERY YEAR and spend thousands and thousands of dollars. They gotta make sure they have the princess breakfasts, the genie pass, and they have to go around Christmas time especially. It’s the most insane thing I’ve ever heard. It was cool when I went there and I only been there twice in my 40 years of life, but I’d rather go to an amusement park with actual rides. I will admit that when I went as a senior in High School I started to tear up a little bit, finally getting in to the Magic Kingdom as you walk through Pinocchio’s village and they play classic disney music. Just very nostalgic. At the time in 2002 tickets cost $75 a piece. Characters still walked around. I happily got my picture taken with Launchpad McQuack. All these people around where I live probably care more about the park than their kids at this point. My kids could give two shits about Disney. Buzz Lightyear is the best ride there.
I hang out in Delco in the early 00s, and live near the area. Your spot on the "Disney Adults" that plan vacations every year to FL. Both with or without kids.
Even have a few friends that did a college internship at the park- basically spent a fair amount of time working at the park, and have reunions every few years with people they worked with. This is going on 20 years ago.
If it makes people happy, no issues on my end- just find it odd. Like you, in my 40 years, been to parks once in the early 90s. I was never a huge Disney fan, even growing up, but glad I went when I did.
The cost of the parks are insane. I can plan a trip (and have) to Europe or South America for the cost of a weekend at the park.
Frankie's a great storyteller, big Frankie fan by the way
A bumper week for RCE content this week! Thanks! Must have been a lot of work to get this and the Disney video on RCE edited, they're both awesome
I forgot where I saw this but it’s true about Disney Adults:
“You don’t love Disney, you just haven’t been happy since childhood.”
Damn, that's depressing.
This was a fun watch. It's especially funny hearing how as an adult you go into the ordeal with a new perspective on Disney's borderline predatory money making schemes. But god damn that nostalgia hits hard, I was more of a Universal fan though purely because of Backdraft.
Thanks Frankie for showing us a little bit of your family’s adventures
I wonder how many kids these days pick up on Robin Williams' Peter Lorre and William F. Buckley impressions in Aladdin.
Haha, great point. I wonder how many adults even pick up on that? There can't be too many millenials (outside of film graduates and Young Republicans, maybe) who know who Lorre or Buckley are...
I knew Buckley (as a Swiss) because I took a course about America's right in University, but I never knew this is what she have sounded like.
I'm a millennial and I only know them because of Looney Tunes/Animaniacs lol
Frankie, thank you for giving us this overview of the Disney experience. My family was toying with the idea of going to Disneyland with my two boys. The genie pass in particular seem really confusing when reading about it. But you broke it down way better than the Disney nerds on Reddit. We ultimately pass on going because it was gonna be about $5000. I totally forgot about all the up-sales these places get you with. That would’ve easily tacked on another $1k at least 😅 Love you content!!
The last time I went to Disney World was when they put the Tower of Terror in. I remember loving Space Mountain and riding it multiple times, but other than that, it was definitely not nearly as good as Hershey Park or Six Flags regarding ride quality.
Frankie looks like Billy Joe Armstrong if he gave up Punk Rock for a modest career in IT
I just back from Disneyland. This time we tried "rope dropping" combined with Genie+.
The problem you run into with the lightning lanes is that 2 or three rides run out of lightning lanes faster than others, and then you have to choose whether you book a lightning lane for Indiana Jones 3 hours from now, and have to wait at least 2 hours to get another lightning lane... or do you just stick to lightning lanes that are immediate, and try to knock them out quickly so you can just hop from one ride to the next, but then risk never getting on the most popular rides.

I agree that the rides people are the most nostalgic for are not worth bragging about at all. I think you need to get really into it when you are a tiny child, like my older sister loves Haunted Mansion more than anything else on Earth. But the thrill rides I love just for the presentation, like I love Space Mountain just for how dark it is, even if it is just a dinky fairground rollercoaster, I just love the environment they placed it in. Same for Rockin' Rollercoaster at Hollywood Studios, it's just a stock rollercoaster from a Tycoon game blueprint essentially, but with Aerosmith blaring in the background in a dark Hollywood recreation makes it a million times better for me.
New stuff in this style is what really shines for me like the new Tron ride (that took them like 5 years to build, Jesus Christ), I love the Guardians of the Galaxy ride at Epcot, and I know the sequels suck but man I love the techincal complexity of the Star Wars rides. It's so impressive to me to be in a life size hangar bay with AT-AT's looking at you. I'm really not into Star Wars in general but I love those rides. The presentation just makes all of those excellent for me. Though, these are the rides that need the Genie+ or pre-booking crap that you then also have to wait like 4 more hours for to get in, basically you have to commit your whole day to one of those. I do love the shows a lot too, like the fireworks, the parades, and the theatrics in Hollywood Studios. But growing up near the area and attending since being an infant has really conditioned me to enjoy all of it already, so I'm biased, I get that. To be fair I think I am like that with Universal Studios too, there's tons of shortcomings but I'll defend all of it, haha.
I think I've finally reached gluttonous adulthood because I look forward to the restaraunts more than anything. I also think they have amazing food, but this is one thing you kinda need to consult us disturbed nerds to find out where they legitimately great food is. There's also tons of great restaraunts on Disney property but outside of the Disney parks, many require reservations, but that's a whole rabbit-hole I won't add onto for the FOMO factor lol.
Also yea, we're goofy in Florida, 50 degrees will kill us. You northerners are psychos, but to be fair we even think 79 degrees is chilly. So we're ready for the heat death of the world.
Also sorry you had to deal with some weirdo on Haunted Mansion reciting the ride, that's a real problem when some people just go crazy with the participation factor, like they think they need to talk along to the rides, or try to make a new trend of yelling something out like a midnight movie screening. I agree that needs to stop, it ruins the experience.
We were there around the same time. It was strange to see rides sponsored by Chevrolet, enterprise Rent-a-car and Pandora Jewelry.
I remember Star Tours in Disneyland being sponsored by Energizer years ago
"I have to go before I'm 7" Dang is that like a 16th-life crisis?
Local Floridian who regularity makes trips into the wildness lodge for work it would have been a surreal parasocial moment to have seen you
I actually did get recognized in the park by a BoxMac fan! That was a total trip for me.
I got the bug a couple years ago, it was like a cold for one week, the kind where you feel more tired than sick. Then I felt perfectly fine, haven't had any after effects, and haven't gotten sick again. I've been lucky. And I've been working from home most of my adult life so I get below-average exposure to the public.
I’m so glad I watched this video. I 8 days away from a trip there and have planned little. This helps put things in perspective.
I can't believe more people aren't wearing masks at Disney world, that place is filthy and filled with people without COVID. I'd be tempted to wear a mask and I hate the mask, I want people to see my face lol.
masks don't do anything
"A human tinker bell" lol
Amazing video and footage. Thank you for such great laughs! You guys are awesome.
This really brought me back to when my parents took me to Dinseyland as a child. Worth every penny if its all in the name of a kid having fun. Gald the elf could make it too!
I was 10 the first and only time I’ve ever been to Disney, and I too ended up losing my voice. It kinda sucked because I couldn’t scream on any of the thrill rides but other than that, I don’t remember the illness “catching up” with me. I was so entranced by Disney hypnosis that I didn’t care that I was sick… Sounds like it was a similar experience for Gloria! Glad you guys had fun!!!
My best friend traveled from DE to Disney at around the same time. His mom got Covid. Guess we can now blame Frankie!
Ps. I would've done the same, Frankie
My hands were tied 🤣
I was there probably the same time. Almost an hour to ride Haunted Mansion. Probably should’ve gotten the Genie Plus.
I’m obsessed with the Disney parks, but I don’t mind you throwing shade at the Magic Kingdom rides, because I’m used to the Disneyland versions of the same rides, and the California versions of the same rides are so much better, especially Pirates, Small World, Buzz Lightyear, Space Mountain, and Peter Pan! The Florida Magic Kingdom, with the exception of the castle and Tron, feels like a cheaper imitation of the original Disneyland. I’m telling ya, man. Walt’s original magic kingdom is so charming, though I cannot guarantee that it will be your cup of tea like it is mine.
Also, learning to figure out how to get the most out of Genie Plus is ridiculous with its many caveats. You end up zigzagging around the park sometimes if you aren’t glued to your phone. I love Disney the most, and so it pains me to admit that Universal has the vastly superior ride skipping add on, despite costing up to ten times more.
Sounds complicated! You are a good Dad. My son is only 18 months old, I suspect I have all this to come! 😢
I'm trying to think of the decent rides at the Magic Kingdom... Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, Matterhorn Bobsleds, Big Thunder Mountain... maybe just barely worth a trip with older kids. The Indiana Jones ride at Disneyland is pretty cool too, I remember 12yo me really liking it. As usual, I could like to Frankie talk about things for ages. 😆(edit: apparently the Matterhorn isn't at Magic Kingdom, okay, the park is basically worthless from a ride standpoint.)
Disney world as a Florida resident is a whole different nightmare 😂, but its great hearing an outsider perspective. That weirdo on the Haunted Mansion ride was just your standard disney adult, most insufferable people ever. And the food at disney has always sucked
I'm almost disappointed that after 3 years and no vax, I've not once had covid.
I have the vax and haven't gotten it either. I've been very lucky I wore the mask stayed, 6 feet away etc. I wasn't totally locked away later in the pandemic and still haven't gotten it. I hope this doesn't jinx me lol.
@@apolloforabetterfuture4814 I smoke a lot of weed maybe that's the trick.
the only people I know that got covid all got the vaccine
These numbers you keep bringing up, wow
That was not me behind you in line for the haunted mansion, but it might as well have been
I took my cousins to Disney when they were around 10-12 and they were bored after about an hour. Its seems like it's more for really young kids. They used to just have a "fast pass" for each ride which was a separate shorter line, and the tickets were free but you had to wait about an hour to use each one, so you could time it out where you could go through every ride without waiting that long
Also speaking of covid, I never wore a mask, never got a vaccine, and still have never got covid. Everyone I know who got the vaccine has caught it at least 3 or 4 times by now. So do what you will with that information
How didn't you go on Space Mountain, and Splash Mountain?
1. Splash Mountain was closed because it's being reconstructed to be Tiana's Bayou Adventure. 2. Gloria's not tall enough to ride Space Mountain.
Tokyo Disneyworld is nothing but those weirdos haha, people are Disney crazy in here and so many people buy the season pass and just go there everyday to have a picnic for 10 hours.
My dad took me to Disney World and made me go on Splash Mountain, because he wanted to go on it, I think, and it was terrifying.
I think there is a Frozen ride in Epcot. The rides at other parks are cool. I like Epcot.
NAMBLA
I'm glad you were able to have an excellent memory despite COVID!
Damnnnnn my friend is there right now and got sick.
The rides suck? UNSUBSCRIBE! Must. Defend. MK's honor
The whole thing of going to the park is so convoluted. I am guilty of being a big Disney apologist, but I tune into the channel to help keep me grounded. Thank you for the entertainment.
One of the greatest gift a parent can give to their children is to steer them away from Disney so that they don't turn out to be those Disney adult freaks later on in life.
When I was a kid, none of us really liked Disney. It was always kinda gay, even when we were like 6 years old. I'd always rather be watching Thundercats or even Looney Tunes. Disney was like what you watched when you had nothing else to watch
already mentioned but yeah, neurodivergent folks can have special interests that they didn't pick and can't really shake if they wanted. pokemon, disney, trains, particular rocks, anything.
disney does finally have adult only days I think I heard starting last year. not my bag, mine's synthesizers :9
funny how they all randomly pick to be obsessed with Disney, must just be a coincidence
This is the red cow content I’m looking for
I've never had covid AFAIK. Even if I had the sniffles, I would do one of those tests and it never came back positive.
My wife got it and I still didn't get it, and we even slept in the same bed together. She was fine after a couple days.
Modern kids have their fondest childhood memories attached to some intellectual property owned by a big corporation that will exploit that nostalgia in the future. Better spend some copyright-free time with your kids for their own sake.
Church attendance is way down. Sweet!!
Disney adults are weird man. I can see waiting in line for a pic with a princess that you like but talking. that's like going to a themed period attraction where they cant be out of character and your role playing cuse you think its fun.
your hot take has me kind of flip flopping in my head around it. On one hand I understand the weirdness of a childless adult in a childrens themepark is odd. But there is no age limit and i bet you everything is designed to be both fun for parents being nostalgic and fun for their kid. So its completely valid to suspend disbelief and play pretend as an adult as the place is meant for that. Not my cup of tea, I find even adults going to escape rooms odd. But to each their own.
So I would say, just because something is allowed doesn’t mean it’s always appropriate. You can do a lot worse things than meet an amusement park mascot, I’m just saying it’s odd. Again, I feel like most people would think it was VERY bizarre to meet Santa by yourself as an adult in a mall. And I fail to see how this is all that different, or different at all. As for it being designed for grownups to go by themselves? No, I don’t get that impression. It was quite distinct for kids, much like the rides were for kids and adults are allowed to go on. Similarly, Bippidy boppidy boutique was only for ages 3 to 12. I guarantee you, if they opened that up it would be swarmed by adults. But for once, they decided to make a space just for children, since it’s so obviously a children’s activity.
This is so gross.
Well...hope you didn't kill anyone lol 🤦♂️
Yeah, the Disney adult thing is a little strange. I’ll stick to a more normal hobby like surrounding myself with arcade machines and 30 year old TVs!
Ha, smart ass. The criticism isn’t that they’re enjoying something nostalgic or from their childhood or something that’s childlike. It’s that they’re by themselves in line to see Santa Claus.
@@RedCowArcade lol sorry, just was giving you guys a hard time
❤
I'm a lifelong Florida resident, and Disney and the rides have always sucked
Was planning on taking my kids to Disney before they were born, but that's before the world went completely crazy, now instead I take them on hikes, camping, to the zoo, and the botanical gardens. No reason to indoctrinate them with media no matter what your politics are, and it gets them away from screens.
100% agree
You don’t have the moral high ground because you took your kids to the zoo instead of Disney. As a parent, it’s up to you to to make decisions that you feel are in the best interest of your family. You are in no shape or form better than anyone else because your kids looked at flowers and went for a walk. Let people do what they want and worry about yourself.
@@SteveJohnson-ht6kv and this right here is why depression rates in young people break records every year. People think handing kids iPods is no different than exploring the natural world. Now you have generations of people completely disconnected from the natural world and each other that don't know how to function in social settings.
@@SteveJohnson-ht6kvWhat part of that comment indicated the person wasn't letting other people do what they want? You can indoctrinate your kids with Disney's propaganda all you want, no one is stopping you. You literally just made up a scenario that never happened so you could get mad about
@@SteveJohnson-ht6kv Wow you really took offense to their comment, made assumptions about how they feel and seemed to put a lot of words in their mouth, good job! IMO, any activity that is even slightly educational far exceeds anything Disney has to offer, not to mention the absolute fortune you'll spend to do so.
muh kids
my wife would be the grown ass woman meeting the princesses. she'd also do the bibbity boppity boutique if it would allow adults.
Guardians of the galaxy coaster is insane at Epcot
Rise of the resistance is mind blowing at Hollywood
Everything else at the parks is weird and mostly not worth the waits
Space Mountain is decent for an indoor coaster. That Aerosmith coaster at Epcot is amazing too
EuroDisney is expensive af
I couldn’t imagine just going to Magic Kingdom. You miss out on so much booze.
Active infection and no mask, even a crappy surgical. I can understand committing to the trip with the sunk cost and a child, but you should consider that you've exposed two flights, your family, and innumerable park attendees to disease with no consideration of their health. COVID and long-COVID are no joke, I wish people would take it seriously.
I would to listen to an entire podcast episode about Red Cow vs Disney Adults. The only cool ride to me is the Great Movie Ride and the only exciting cool one is Expedition Everest. But yeah the actual rides are kinda whatever the appeal for Magic Kingdom as someone who doesn’t really care about Disney is the vibe and being there I assume.
⭐✨💕💞💕💞💕💕💞💕💕💞💕💞💕✨⭐✨
To be fair, you went on all the lamest rides
That’s why I buy travel insurance with “cancel for any reason.” You can be reimbursed for your non-refundable purchases that way if you get a fever or something and cannot go.
No fomo
Disney World sounds miserable
Pretty cynical look at disney tbh
We don't care about the Rona down here. You are welcome whenever.
How much would you say you spent in total in a day at the park?
Day 1 was 8:30am to about 7:30am. Day 2 was about 11am to 9pm. So 10 to 11 hours on average I'd say.
Oh, Frankie. You haven't seen the horror that are Disney Adults? It's absolute insanity and kind of depressing.
can't believe you killed so many grandmothers
Only a certain portion of the population has the rona
So odd that an adult would want to meet a character
Lol Covid
I have fun with muh kid at Tokyo Disneyland, but there are some rides that just have to go or need updates. This includes haunted mansion, small world, the pinocchio ride, and peter pan. They're cheap carnival rides in 2024 that for some reason have 2 hour long lines. At least next time we go, I now have a list of certified shitty rides that are not worth anyone's time.
