There's almost a billion dollars in savings for Americans already, and it's only going to flourish from there, isn't it?

Oh, and it's awesome.

I mean, nine out of 10 prescriptions are generic drugs, right? So you're getting those drugs for $3, for $5, sometimes for free.

But that last one drug, that's the drug that's expensive.

That's when mom found out she got rheumatoid arthritis when she was 45 years old and her drug costs $7,000 a year.

you know, that's when someone has to take not just insulin, but another medication to help manage their diabetes.

And they're finding out that that's thousands of dollars, thousands of dollars a month and $10,000 a year.

One.

She's thriving.

And yeah, I'm, I'm thriving.

I'm vibing.

Uh, this one's a great time.

Uh, this one, to me, obviously it's a premier Rainforest location.

Um, it is, like, a little dark 'cause they do these thunderstorms and things, but, like, I don't know.

It doesn't feel as, like, dark and damp as the one at Animal Kingdom.

So, so far so good.

Mm.

Mm, so good.

So I thought this was a little on the sweeter side than I was expecting.

Um, this does have a lot of things that I'm into, like gin.

Uh, but they also garnish it with a lemon wedge and a mint sprig, so making it a little bit, like, lighter, more summery.

I thought this was a nice addition.

I say it was sweeter than I thought.

And enjoy it.

How do you feel about it, Hannah?

I, I, I almost couldn't believe it, like you said, when I first saw it.

Uh, it just makes sense to me, but I love that Universal actually did it.

Um, I love that we have an original character.

He is so lovable, and the fact that you can meet him just makes sense, and it just makes me want to go back to Epic Universe that much more.

I was just there this past weekend, and I am devastated that I missed him, so yeah.

Yeah.

And it indeed was, but it was a good opportunity to, like, we rode all three attractions in Nintendo.

[laughs]

It was real.

That's true.

So we made up the, uh, term dogfish.

Catfishing we all kind of know.

You're using a fake picture online to fake your identity.

Dogfishing is when you're not using a fake image.

And how do you dispute something that was your idea?

Yeah.

It's, like, four stories, so, like, I sat at the top and I was just like, "This is ..." I'm like, "This is freaking me out.

I hate this," 'cause you're, like, way up high.

It's so loud in there.

They're, like, playing, like, 2000s music videos.

It reminds me of, like, what a Hard Rock Cafe was- YeahYou know, just circa 2000.

So I don't know.

Yeah.

People need to get out of the nostalgia.

Sometimes it's not nostalgia.

Sorry.

Um, yeah, I know the, uh, Plaza inn fries there are a big deal, but that ticks me off, because first of all they're not good.

It's nacho cheese sauce, like, slopped on there with some ranch and bacon bits.

Listen, I like that kind of trash.

I do.

And I will not ever go back, unless we do a dining review and it's, like, breakfast or whatever, but.

Yeah.

Also, I'm just curious, it kind of, um, I start to think about all the infrastructure things of all these new additions that are coming.

I mean, you know, you think about Pixar Peak and the eventually Villains Land.

And yeah, I mean, it's, it, the, I mean, to your point, I think, uh, for most people, getting, uh, to and from Magic Kingdom is, is a little bit daunting.

And so I'm curious, as we get closer to those openings, if, you know, maybe the bus lanes are gonna look different.

Or yes, are we gonna get new monorails, things like that.

These things that don't, you know, are not, like, the hot, sexy topics of opening new stuff at Disney World.

Oh my God, yeah

Mm.

It is so, so good.

Um, so that's a must do for me.

You know, I have gotten, um, like, the grouper sandwich before.

It's $33, so again, once you start getting into seafood, it gets a little pricey.

Um, they have some good salads there as well.

They have a lobster bisque.

Oh.

What else is new? I get in trouble for everything I do, so who-

Well, when you got a face like that, what do you expect?

And she tastes like cigarettes.

[laughs]

May 26th

...

May 26th, yes.

[laughs] Which highlights kid-friendly entertainment, interactive experiences, and refreshed attractions.

So beginning this spring and continuing into early summer, we'll see the return of beloved attractions, updated experiences, and brand-new entertainment.

So first up, we have Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin is reopening April 8th.

And if you're caught up on all this, this is where, uh, we are going to see new ride vehicles, new, uh, guns to shoot at the targets.

Yes

Also, there was no records of this.

[gasps] There was nothing? So if, if someone's in the military you're going to find them.

And that's, just like you said with, a, something as simple as a phone number.

We advertise also on The Dating Detectives with the, like- We're like- ... data brokers ...

this is how to find information.

And also, if you wanna get yours off, use Delete Me.

It helps you get [laughs] like- Yes ... all your data off.

Have a good week, guys.

She says while the Department of Government Efficiency was focused on cutting costs for HHS, officials have also been compiling internal data to release to the public.

It takes one click to download the data set, and you can start searching by provider, you can start searching by what kind of services are costing the most, and really start tracking and trying to figure out, is that provider in LA County actually providing the services that they're supposed to be providing to Medicaid, or are they using Medicaid fraud to enrich themselves?

The government already has several departments devoted to investigating and prosecuting fraud, but Anderson says Medicaid has some unique flaws, prompting the government to invite more scrutiny.

You know, Medicaid is a partnership between the states and the federal government.

So if a state has decided that they're going to send in bad or fragmented data, or they're not gonna take it on themselves to be identifying fraud, it gets even harder for CMS to find that fraud.

you eat at the

restaurant? Not this time, but I have.

I've eaten at Wailulu.

I've done lunch and dinner there, and I think the food is great.

The setting is incredible.

One thing that I found out that I didn't know before doing these tours is that those very cool viewing decks that they have in Island Tower – where you can actually see the fireworks and it's stunning, you can only access those if you were staying in the Island Tower.

So if you're staying DVC at one of the other longhouses, like you were staying in Tokelau or the traditional Polynesian buildings, you do not have access to those elevators, so you do not have access to those viewing locations.

I really think that area should have been where Cars Land went.

Would you see Mr. Kennedy's initial goals as working in concert with or distinct from other presidential health initiatives of the past?

I think those goals everyone can agree on, that these are things that need to be attended to and addressed.

And I remember even back into the Obama administration where childhood obesity was a question and Michelle Obama was tackling it from a more get-outdoors, gardening kind of perspective.

And I remember back then it, there were eyebrows and questions.

You know, there's tension around conversations about health and the right approaches, but I don't think there is disagreement that these aren't issues that we do need to attend to.

But I do think politics get involved very quickly when we start coming to practical solutions or approaches.

Food is an indicator of much more than just food.

That happens all across the spectrum, everywhere.

"... brood of 12 children and how I've raised them up in the way of the Lord." So there's something to that too, right? Like influencer culture and pastor culture and you can go on Instagram right now and see these experts on gentle parenting and, "They've got it figured out and here's what my kid did in the store and here's how perfectly I managed it and handled it and how you can too." That has its own way of intimidating people away from having children.

What you're naming is just the other side of the coin to what Russ was saying, because they both assume the capacity for expertise or knowledge that you just don't get without doing.

And I think there is a sense where we're very theoretical and we're moving out of the lab into the field when we actually have children.

And so there is this uncertainty that we're not comfortable with.

We don't like the fact that the process is how you learn, and there's such fear around just jumping into that doing process.

And I do think the influencer culture is playing off of that fear.

Y- y- you don't have to have questions.

Hannah, do you think that it's important for prospective parents to resolve their own family of origin issues before they have kids?

And there was a anti-family, anti-child sort of animus that came along with that kind of rhetoric we want to avoid, and could very easily be an unintended consequence of all kinds of economic manipulation for these purposes.

I think that's probably the most disturbing cultural and ethical......

Piece to this conversation.

You know, it's being promoted by some of the loudest voices who have really dubious ethics around fatherhood, okay? So w- I'm thinking of Musk here and even President Trump himself, where they are on record as naming themselves as bringing certain genetic code into the human population, that there is this kind of futurism with their desi-...

At least Musk for certain is this way.

So he thinks of fatherhood and he thinks of human reproduction in terms of superior species, and that's deeply problematic for lots of reasons.

I also think one of the things that's just deeply incongruous is the fact that a lot of the voices that would be promoting this kind of government-supported pronatalism also are very anti-immigration.

You might go to the nicest restaurant in Tel Aviv and have a toddler crawling under your table from a few tables away simply because it's expected.
