So very sorry to hear of the loss of your brother Eric. May you find comfort in all of the memories you have of him. On the lighter side, this was a funny episode and it was good to see you laugh. I'm sure you needed it. Nanna is so cute! Love seeing her as part of the team.
The blowing up the bathroom story absolutely sent me 😂😂 I haven’t teared up from laughter that hard in such a long time. Much needed. Thank you guys for that.
Same! You don't need a time machine for that bathroom, as you can here the iconic music for the 1983 Journey Into Imagination still in there😁 Think of steampunk Santa's, Rainbow tunnels, Science, Science, Science and take Magic Journeys all while doing some business. Bonus points for it always being clean.
This is a great topic by the way. Bathrooms are a great example of the sort of strongly held opinion that's kind of weird but also weirdly kind of useful people love on the internet. I want more "Direct useful information from WDWNT" content please and thank you. The reason WDWNT has a special place in my heart is (several years ago) I wanted to know if Sundries sections at resort shops had distilled water (because I used a CPAP at the time) AND NOBODY WOULD JUST ADMIT THEY DIDN'T KNOW. Literally everybody on the internet was like "You could just stop by Target or do an Instacart order" like I'm some kind of idiot who doesn't know how commerce works in the 21st century. So, during a live stream where Tom was walking around the Grand Floridian, I hucked a couple of dollars into a superchat because I just appreciated the stream, and on a whim I was like "Hey Tom. Do any of the resort shops carry distilled water in the sundries section?" And he stopped walking, paused, and said, "No." AND THEN WE BOTH WENT ON WITH OUR LIVES AND I WAS FOREVER GRATEFUL HE DIDN'T TELL ME TO GO TO PUBLIX. So yeah, long story short (too late) more content with weird but useful info like this would be fun and nice.
So glad you got a chance to laugh today Eric. So amazing that you've found a venue suitably grand to celebrate Andy's time with us. You have every right to be proud of him x
Of all 4 Florida parks, my favorite is the men’s bathroom that is located right as you get off of the Nemo ride in Epcot. It’s so nice in there and it’s typically clean. They play relaxing music and the blue ocean theming is really cozy.
I’m happy all my favorite bathrooms were mentioned. The Citrico’s bathroom is my favorite, clean and elegant (it was bordered up last week, though). And that Contemporary convention bathroom is definitely the most quiet/clean. I avoid the Capt Cooks bathroom at all costs 😂 along with that DHS front entrance bathroom.
Eric, all the best. I lost my sister in November and this hurts differently. This is a very important conversation. Bathroom behind the Australia kiosk next to Canada is top notch. For some reason the one east of Spaceship Earth is quiet except at park closure. Near Muppet Vision are disgusting, always wet and wrecked. Behind Pirates of Caribbean is a refuge.
I absolutely agree with the Cheshire Cat cafe bathrooms. Plenty of Wall seating and a bench for waiting for a husband that poops forever, convenient location, and not super busy. Can’t ask for more.
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of Andy, Eric. He was a joy to see on News Tonight the few times I saw him and you two clearly had a great friendship in addition to being brothers. Sending all my positive energy to you, your family, and all those who loved Andy.
16:36 The best bathroom on Disney bathroom is located at Disney Springs next to Blaze Pizza call Zara Restroom. It is just as large as the Firehouse bathroom near Coca Cola Bathroom. However it stays empty because it is out of sight and out of mind, while the Lime Bathroom is the smallest and because of it's location stays crowd, because it is under the stairs that lead into Disney Springs.
The bathrooms by the main pool entrance in between the yacht and beach club are amazing. They have wonderful 90s tile work and I hope they don’t strip it away.
My friend first visited the Florida parks in the 1980's and later went on to become a WDW cast member. So she finds this bathroom review entertaining because it brings back lots of memories. She had a head injury while working at Animal Kingdom Lodge but she always said the cast member bathrooms at AKL was Hugh and cast members took took their breaks there. 😍😁
This is a great idea for a vlog and I'm so glad to see Nana back!! As a parent I need to take my kids to the bathroom constantly, it's really helpful to know where the cleanest and less crowded ones are located- it saves a lot of time waiting in line. The guys probably haven't had to deal with this- but the wait for the ladies room can be like waiting for an attraction. We recently went to Disneyland and experienced the Alice in Wonderland bathroom, I loved the playing card doors- it made me wonder how many other themed bathrooms are in the parks that I've never visited. It's another level of detail and theming to experience in the parks. Also- it would be helpful if we could see photos of the outside door of the bathroom to understand where it is in the park, and/or a map.
Sorry for your loss Eric. As a Chattanooga local I can absolutely believe you were stuck here 5 hours we do not know how to drive in weather. Not to mention the traffic nightmare that is the 75 and 24 split. That wigs exclusive match madness is why I became a wig originally. Just because it seems so weird.
I started humming the Innoventions music just before you guys did and my wife looked over at me and said, "you have found your Disney kindred spirits"!
Jungle Skipper Canteen bathroom is pretty cool. We were at Saratoga Sept 2020. A pipe burst on the roof of our hotel day before we checked in. We didn’t know; we walked in and the floor had puddles of water. My wife thought it was because they just cleaned. Then I noticed the AC was frozen over. It was frozen from the water infiltration. They were awesome. We were given gift cards and a full upgrade from a standard room to preferred 1-bed villa.
I have a funny story, I was opening crew for Splash Mountain and one time they got the breakdown spiel crossed into the bathroom speakers so when you were in the bathroom and the break down spiel was going off you would hear "Please remaine seated" LOL
Im sorry for your loss Eric, it was nice to see you were laughing, I wish nothing but comfort for your healing. I agree with Nana I would LOVE an episode on hotels especially now since a lot of them have been rethemed. As a kid in the 2000s I used to think if I ever got a chance to stay in the poly or contemporary that it would be peak luxury 😭 but on my most recent trip to Old Key West (which was a very nice hotel) you could feel some of that luxury and Disney difference has slipped away. Id love a whole episode on the 'Disney Difference' anyway, I think a lot of people dont know how detailed they used to be! I really liked this episode, as a south Florida native idk how I never thought of what is the best bathroom at each park considering we used to go multiple times a year.
Condolences for your loss, Eric. Thanks for delivering a fun and useful episode. I'm interested in accessibility at the parks, and this is a nice tidbit to add to the bank of information out there.
We missed you Eric! I will keep your family in my prayers. I hope you have nothing but sunshine this year! Also Godzilla minus one is still the best movie
The little one in the middle of DHS was one of the worst bathroom experiences of my life. Glad it’s going to be something else. Oh Eric. Sorry. I have lost 2 of 4 brothers myself.
So sorry for your loss Eric and the whole WDWNT team…Andy for sure will be missed! I love when he had his guitar and you guys sang “Momma don’t whoop lil Buford” …I think on Boxed In! Now, he will be shining down from above rather than coming up from the basement 🥹. Tom, they still have a sink in the woman’s bathroom at Brown Derby with the handles rather than the sensor…that’s the one I always go to!
35:20 The True best Hollywood Studios Bathroom is the Single one on the load station at Slinky Dog Dash. Technically it's for cast members, but sometimes if you ask, cast members will let you use it, so you don't have to get all the way out of line.
Back in the 1980s, when Epcot was still new, there were these really cool restrooms outside of the Communicore area (I think) They were in a separate building, and we went back to visit the restrooms as they always played the best music! I didn't know what it was at the time, but thinking back I think it may have been the music from that "Bodywars" virtual ride that made us all nauseous! 🤣
Bonus point for Galaxy's Edge's, the Aurebesh sign on the water fountains connected to the restroom. If you never have, pull up the Aurebesh alphabet and and translate it. It's maybe my single favorite GE themed detail.
This episode was hilarious, one of my favorites from this podcast. My favorite bathrooms are the ones by Casey Jr. Splash N Soak. Beautiful brick building and never busy always clean.
Gotta admit, after studiously hanging on every word of each of these random podcasts, even I was hesitant to watch this episode, WHAT A MISTAKE!!! New rule, never be dissuaded by the thumbnail!!! One of the funniest and now my favorite of them all!!! I swear this happened; my wife can attest, Im up here in Jersey, seated in my recliner watching this while eating pizza and drinking beer out of my official JUNGLE JIM'S Tiger foot mug!!! (Tom, I may have a second one still in plastic, if I can find it, I'd gladly donate it if interested!!) You guys then mentioned the Jungle Jim animal butt seats and I did a Guiness spit take all over my lap!!! So loved Jungle Jims, in my younger days I ate their 3 pound cheeseburger, and got a t-shirt!! Such a fun spot, broke my heart when it left us. First time AP holder, making a list of things to do on our next trip in April/May and have now added bathrooms to our to do list!!! (Along with possibly attending your meet up at Hollywood Studios in May!!! Love your content, and that you got Eric to laugh at a very difficult time. Eric you are in our prayers.
The 50s Prime Time Diner bathrooms.... but the best AK bathroom ever is located in the event space out on the African Safari trek! All of the brightly colored tiles are hand painted- it's such a surprise when you walk in there. 10/10.
Ohh, came here based on the title to say "this is the content I am here for, no lie" but I see all the comments... My condolences to you, Eric. I hope you're able to find comfort in those around you
Real talk, the new bathroom in Disneyland ToonTown by the playground is infuriating how inconvenient it is for children. There is no small sink, the soap can't be reached by small children. It's mind boggling how that bathroom design got approved for that update.
It's funny that people notice this. I was disappointed in the toy story bathroom. Missed opportunity for some great theming. One of the best things at universal is the bathrooms in harry potter are haunted by the bathroom ghost
Eric, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Since bathrooms is the subject, my husband’s favorite bathroom is the second floor of TGF down where they put the gingerbread house. It’s our tradition to eat at 1900 Park fare on our last morning, he bypasses the nearest restroom for those upstairs. Nana, we were in Japan in October, we stayed at the Shinjuku Prince hotel. They had the Toto toilets, my husband wanted to get one when we returned home, but then he saw the prices😮😢😂❤.
