we can pick a quieter spot to do the
0:12
opening sorry
0:14
this is our last day here for the
0:16
captain's last day here in Central
0:18
Florida all good things must come to an
0:20
end and this is our last day together
0:23
for now for now hopefully you'll come
0:26
back up to Philly and I can show you
0:28
around I'll be back up here
0:30
all right I'll be back up there have I
0:32
have I worn you out have I tired you has
0:34
it been like the worst five days
0:37
am I always yelling about how I think
0:40
some people might not realize that a lot
0:43
of it is a bit not a bit I I personally
0:46
feel this a little bit it's it's a it's
0:49
an over-exaggeration of who you are am I
0:53
screaming all nine innings and yelling
0:55
no no I said there's about a half an
0:57
inning where you're eating something
0:59
right right right so you know I when I
1:02
get a little bit we have two different
1:04
vibes
1:16
all the move
1:16
and every time I watch him do that I'm
1:18
like
1:20
so patient he waits for the monorail to
1:22
move
1:23
he waits for his white girl to move
1:27
one of the most patient men
1:28
understanding notice how I'm standing in
1:30
the shade
1:31
notice how I'm standing in the shade
1:33
here yeah I look for shade right here
1:36
stand right here but I'm gonna stand
1:39
right here I I mean one of my things
1:41
about Florida that I don't get there's
1:43
so many trees but there's no shade
1:45
anywhere it's
1:47
it's it should be our slogan come to
1:50
Florida see the trees with no shame
1:59
we're gonna do some Philly stuff today
1:59
in Orlando we're gonna go to Wawa and a
2:03
Philly cheesesteak place a little later
2:06
and then I gotta take fill the captain
2:08
to the airport now I was telling Philly
2:10
Captain how rare it is to see an officer
2:12
and this is not
2:14
this is a community volunteer Patrol
2:19
so you still have not seen an officer in
2:22
celebration it rarely happens when
2:24
there's not an event going on you will
2:26
rarely if ever
2:28
let's see one that is a community
2:30
volunteer Patrol I have no idea
2:34
I doubt it
2:36
it's weird
2:38
I think it kind of reminds me of the
2:40
Mayberry episode of the citizens arrest
2:42
uh uh the citizens arrest episode did
2:46
you ever see that citizens arrest you
2:49
never seen I don't know I don't know I'm
2:51
not an Andy Griffith Show I've seen the
2:53
Andy Griffey show I don't know the
2:54
titles of each episode so this is our
2:56
hustling and bustling
2:58
of downtown Market Street the other day
3:00
when we walked down here they had it
3:02
closed off
3:03
for the the fourth of this you know it
3:05
was actually the third we walked through
3:07
here but they had the Street closed off
3:08
so this is what it's like on a normal
3:10
day
3:11
we're just it's a it's like 10 o'clock
3:13
in the morning and we're just walking in
3:15
the middle of the middle of the street
3:16
we're gonna run through it oh he's
3:18
running through it
3:25
should be on there for 10 miles that's
3:25
kind of silly because everybody knows
3:27
Kissimmee you're right isn't this
3:30
technically this is technically
3:31
Kissimmee so yeah
3:44
at the airport okay I've made the short
3:45
commute a mile or so a mile and a half
3:46
or so over to the nearest Wawa
3:50
which is a company gas station
3:52
convenience store and uh I almost call
3:55
it a deli but just a food place where
3:57
you can get you know hoagies and
4:00
different uh I don't call them Subs I
4:02
think call them Subs is frowned upon for
4:04
someone from Philadelphia but I wanted
4:06
to bring Philly Captain here he wanted
4:08
to do some stuff before he ended up
4:10
going back to MCO to fly home later this
4:12
evening and Wawa on the list he took me
4:14
to some of the Wawas up in Philly when I
4:17
was up there uh recently a few months
4:20
ago so now bringing him to one here this
4:23
is it wow it reminds you of Home tones
4:25
of home dude it's looks exactly the same
4:28
yeah they probably have the same menu in
4:31
there I would assume yeah I'm really
4:33
curious on how the bread is here they
4:36
have a hoagiefest going on you just did
4:38
a video recently at hoagiefest up in
4:40
your neck of the woods 25
4:43
000 people get a free every uh like
4:45
around Fourth of July in Philly people
4:47
can get a free Hoagie in front of the
4:48
Liberty Bell they threw it once a year
4:50
in front of the Liberty Bell yeah it's a
4:52
cool time started in 08 so this would be
4:54
the
4:55
15th year yeah oh Wawa hoagiefest the if
4:59
you ever if you want to go down a cool
5:01
Rabbit Hole they have great Wawa
5:03
hoagiefest commercials they're all made
5:05
by the lead singer of the band Nerf
5:07
herder oh I remember Nerf herder yeah
5:09
crazy Joe would informed me about that
5:12
crazy Joe shout out yeah what's up crazy
5:14
Joe crazy Joe shout out
5:17
fellow Pennsylvania
5:19
I'm not from Pennsylvania but
5:22
crazy Joe and
5:24
Philly Captain our delicious Vibes only
5:26
they have pineapple lemonade smoothies
5:28
and Refreshers as well
5:30
we're drinking down here a schwarber
5:33
drink yeah
5:35
your left fielder yeah oh yes were you
5:40
gonna say something negative about that
5:41
about the Swarm
5:43
you got the hoagie side all right
5:45
there's a table out front that is open
5:47
so we're gonna
5:49
I've never I've never seen a Wawa with a
5:51
table outside what do they usually have
5:53
we do the Disney tradition the eat off
5:55
the top of the trash can oh nice I like
5:58
the wrapping yeah it's cool
6:05
where did it where did Wawa actually
6:05
start Wawa started in Wawa Pennsylvania
6:07
as a dairy farm and then they uh opened
6:10
up these little chains all throughout
6:12
nut chains these little stores all
6:13
throughout Philadelphia and about 10
6:16
years ago they started doing rapid
6:18
expansion all across the United States
6:20
they're now in Florida Virginia
6:31
it's kind of like imagine a really clean
6:31
7-Eleven with a really good Subway the
6:34
sandwiches are so much better than
6:36
Subway but that's what they are it's
6:38
it's I don't know if they have any uh
6:40
sheets I've been to shakes yeah
6:44
if you're ever gonna go to Philadelphia
6:46
and get a hoagie always get an Italian
6:48
hoagie best cuts of meat be at the uh
6:51
Italian important meats are always the
6:52
best way to go never put mayonnaise
6:54
always oil and vinegar really yeah what
6:57
did you get I got a bagel
7:04
it's a veggie Bagel got cream cheese
7:04
it's got a tomato it's got cucumbers on
7:08
it it looks way too healthy that is a
7:10
that is definitely a small shorty that's
7:13
why they're called shorties but not bad
7:15
for five bucks but compared to uh Subway
7:17
Hoagie or sandwich don't see how much
7:19
more meat is in there
7:21
but the thing I'm genuinely curious to
7:23
see how the bread tastes
7:35
good it's a Wawa hoagie it's exactly the
7:35
same that's great mine has a lot I heard
7:38
a bagel is like an entire loaf of bread
7:40
shop crammed into one space
7:47
um a lot of carbs I don't think I've
7:47
ever had a cream cheese bagel but the
7:49
only tomatoes and cucumbers on it but I
7:52
like it
7:54
says um
7:56
the best thing I've eaten in Florida
7:58
I've taken you the what I consider to be
8:01
the best the best Hoagie spot in
8:03
Philadelphia which was uh Richie's in
8:05
South Philly which is amazing yeah now
8:08
this what do you think it is I mean it
8:10
can't compare it with the Richies but
8:11
it's a sandwich
8:12
this is really good it's a good five
8:14
dollar sandwich ain't it
8:27
100 if you go to a Wawa they do have
8:27
sandwiches pre-made you can grab and go
8:30
but if you if you want to experience I
8:32
would recommend ordering it and getting
8:34
it made fresh you can customize it
8:38
get your own condiments but yeah I've
8:41
always been such a rush I never get
8:43
pre-made I always just grab something
8:44
from the heat lamp
8:46
but it didn't take long took like three
8:48
minutes yeah yeah so I think I'm gonna
8:50
start ordering
8:52
yeah you're not too far
8:55
like a mile or two all right next time
8:57
I'll get that not the bagel I thought
9:00
this was going to be lighter so we're
9:01
gonna do a Cheesesteak later I didn't
9:03
want to be too full but in reality this
9:05
is probably more filling than that
9:07
that's going to be more filled yeah but
9:10
I also made your faux pas I didn't get a
9:13
soda I'm drinking a coffee with a hoagie
9:15
I got an any carbonation with a sandwich
9:18
I find
9:19
I made the same mistake though I got it
9:21
do you agree with this carbonation with
9:23
the well I have a drink soda yeah
9:25
we left seltzer water have you ever
9:27
dived into the wonderful world that
9:29
sells or whatever I don't like it no no
9:31
um
9:33
one day maybe I love it that's all I
9:35
drink although I I've been drinking
9:37
nothing but Gatorade down here because I
9:39
haven't sweating so much
9:41
might be the first Bagel I've had
9:44
in five years really
9:46
you were in New York all the time you
9:48
don't get bagels in New York I hardly
9:50
ever yeah Italy breakfast I hardly ever
9:52
eat anything early yeah I we were at a
9:55
hotel and I got the continental
9:56
breakfast and I load up I get the
9:58
bananas and the yogurts eating cup of
10:01
coffee
10:03
they say breakfast is zero I like I I
10:05
say breath is wrong by the way I know uh
10:08
breakfast is the most important uh meal
10:10
of the day that's why I skip it and then
10:13
just eat like a pig at night
10:15
every summer or not every summer every
10:17
few years hers is a Philadelphia
10:19
barbecue as a chip company
10:21
and these are and they try to come out
10:24
with a new flavor so these are three
10:25
local restaurants this is Mike's Korean
10:28
barbecue uh this is what is the pork
10:30
release tomato pie at John's Roast Pork
10:33
uh this is awesome because this is
10:36
probably well it is the best place you
10:39
took me to in Philadelphia for a
10:41
Cheesesteak and now he has his own chips
10:44
right here John's Rose port in Florida
10:47
Hey listen if you can do me a great big
10:49
teddy bear paver if you guys can vote
10:52
for my boy so he can get his chip made
10:54
uh because I think they have a boat and
10:57
which flavor one is the best they get
10:59
their chip and it would really John has
11:01
been in business for a hundred years
11:02
three generation family have you ever
11:04
met another guy so proud of their
11:06
business he's such a good guy
11:08
um for about an hour giving his whole
11:11
process yeah on how we take surprises
11:13
another three chips it's the best one
11:17
it's just a weird tasting it's like
11:18
whenever I take the potato chips I think
11:20
a barbecue or sour cream and onion but
11:22
it's the best
11:23
but we'll see later we'll tell you
11:29
something something
11:29
we don't have in Philadelphia or New
11:33
Jersey anymore plastic Wawa bags oh
11:37
really yeah we only do cloth bags in
11:39
Philly in New Jersey yeah we're this is
11:42
Florida yeah who cares about the Earth
11:50
their logo is a bird
11:50
yeah Wawa actually is a Native American
11:52
term for goose oh for goose interesting
11:57
that's the logo it's a goose
12:00
no kidding
12:02
I never knew that yeah we didn't eat on
12:03
top of the trash can because they have
12:05
tables my friend Gary Hall from the WWE
12:07
Kingdom cast he also is from the
12:09
Philadelphia area he was saying that
12:11
before around the year 2000 any of the
12:14
Wawas up in Pennsylvania never had
12:17
tables so everyone would have to eat on
12:19
top of the trash cans kind of like the
12:20
Epcot Food and Wine Festival you said it
12:23
didn't really have bothered him eating
12:24
on trash cans at Epcot
12:25
because of the youth he was eating on
12:28
trash cans at Wawa
12:30
do you ever eat on trash cans at Wawa
12:31
yeah a lot of times yeah
12:34
yeah it's
12:36
um I'm I'm not yeah no I am proud we
12:38
should have ate on the trash cans but
12:40
you know what we hit on the table Yeah
12:41
classy folk those are rather large trash
12:44
cans that's like a
12:46
big table top there that's that's why we
12:49
do it yeah
12:50
and they finally just added tables post
12:52
two thousand all right yo I've never
12:54
seen a Wawa on the table I don't know
12:56
where he's he's probably from Delco well
12:58
here in Florida
12:59
everybody thinks you're from Delco yeah
13:01
I know boys yeah the the horrible accent
13:04
I have water
13:06
they think that's a dalco but now I'm
13:08
all Philly baby we have tables here in
13:10
Florida and we have plastic bags still
13:12
and alligators and Gators there is quite
13:14
the stench coming out of there like a
13:17
sulfury smell
13:18
it's a that was that we walked past that
13:21
I thought it was that guy spraying
13:23
something is he doing Nord work that's
13:26
not that it's coming out of there
13:28
because if you cut back here if you get
13:30
kind of like upwind of it
13:33
hey this place smells oh yeah dude stand
13:35
over here come over here hey this place
13:37
come on look right here here look smell
13:39
it
13:40
yeah let's get out of here yeah it's
13:41
gonna explode or something let's go next
13:43
to the wizard what's that it reminds me
13:45
of the scene from Christmas Vacation
13:46
where uh he drops the cigar in the zoo
14:00
trying to make sure they don't see the
14:00
same thing look at this a cigarette
14:02
emblem on the ground with the arrow
14:03
pointing to the door
14:05
cigarettes where where do I buy
14:07
cigarettes at right here at five four
14:09
nine five why were they painted on the
14:11
ground I guess a lot of people will all
14:12
crunch back over here those storm clouds
14:15
do not
14:16
look fun over there
14:19
wow look at that that's like evil
14:22
personified
14:24
it's like
14:25
that's crazy how scary that looks in the
14:27
camera lens staying on Highway 192.
14:31
this is a place I wanted to bring you
14:32
for a while or your whole visit here
14:34
we're gonna end the last day together
14:36
with South Philly cheesesteaks and
14:39
Hoagies right so I've been all over
14:43
Central Florida trying to find the best
14:45
cheesesteak and this is the only place
14:46
that holds up it even comes close how's
14:48
the bread they use Amorous that's it
14:51
brother yeah well that's I mean that's
14:52
the biggest thing can't find Lucio's
14:54
Bakery day down here anywhere that I've
14:56
seen right
14:57
may this guy speak in My love language I
15:00
love it he's the one that recommended
15:02
this place so we had to try it out this
15:03
is Gary Hall by the way here it is
15:07
that's the secret the bread it's not the
15:10
steak it's not the cheese that's what
15:11
makes everything they brought Philly to
15:13
me
15:15
we bought Philly to you so you don't
15:17
have to go to Philly I think that's a
15:18
Wawa look at this
15:20
they have rocky here they have two of
15:22
your favorites hats and then Gino's is
15:26
across the way from there right well
15:27
patch is the originator of the cheese
15:29
they're the one that started it right
15:30
the story about the first cheese steak
15:32
guy who owned this place had some extra
15:35
steak meat he threw it on the hot dog
15:37
we're all sold it for a quarter and uh
15:39
to a Taxi Driver Taxi Driver eight it
15:42
came back the next day he said give me
15:43
one of those steak sandwiches yeah
15:45
that's it it used to be a hot dog they
15:47
go for now uh they're fourteen dollars
15:50
is that what they are yeah yeah you know
15:52
what they're worth
15:53
okay
16:01
he took me there one of the best
16:01
one hey the best thank you it's uh I
16:05
mean it's good what what's your what's
16:07
your favorite there uh Philadelphia yeah
16:10
a local place I grew up called Colonial
16:12
Village yeah my favorite cheesesteaks I
16:16
know Don's right sport is good you
16:18
couldn't see it but I was rolling my
16:19
eyes
16:25
but what you grow up with I'm from
16:25
Drexel Hill so what you grow up with yes
16:26
what you consider your favorite and I
16:29
have better cheese steaks outside of
16:30
that sure my favorite was always sure
16:34
Italian Market that I went into it had a
16:36
deli bang cheese steaks and hoagies and
16:39
uh that's my thing that's just fine
16:42
they taste like ketchup potato chips
16:44
yeah
16:52
just put it on the uh put it on these
16:52
chairs
16:53
yeah the Korean barbecue you know when I
16:56
eat a potato chip I want it to taste
16:58
like sour cream and onion soup this is
17:00
what I'm excited about I want it to
17:02
taste like yeah it's just weird but your
17:04
brain doesn't registered
17:07
especially when you get hers ripples
17:09
it's always Saturday yeah oh yeah but
17:28
these are the best I was waiting for you
17:28
guys to try first to break the news so I
17:31
didn't have to assist wins all the Wawas
17:33
will carry this it will be a regular
17:35
show or something yeah virtual Disney
17:38
World okay or commercial Disney
17:40
world.net so yeah it's just rides and
17:42
stuff
17:43
virtual Disney World
17:46
like I have a 360 camera as well like as
17:49
you're on the ride you can look around
17:51
in any direction you want or you can
17:52
wear a headset ride
17:54
so it's proper etiquette not to put
17:56
anything else on it just as it comes no
17:58
no condiments right
18:07
it makes it a little bit better
18:07
American cheese down there Cheesesteak
18:10
my American cheese and fried onions
18:13
that's a Duca Hoagie special
18:15
I mean it's a Philly standard but yeah
18:19
Hoagie isn't a Cheesesteak right that's
18:21
right Hoagies
18:23
on Philly roll lettuce tomato onion
18:29
like pepper some people call pepperella
18:32
it's like grinded cherry peppers on top
18:33
so we had a McDonald's cheesecake the
18:36
other day so that was kind of a mishmash
18:37
it was like a morphing I'm glad you guys
18:39
did that because uh
18:42
that was like regular cheeseburger
18:44
cheese on top of that wasn't it do you
18:46
hear a difference between his accent and
18:48
my accent
18:53
Syracuse I moved to Philly when all four
18:53
you got this yeah everyone says he's
18:57
from Delco yeah really everybody yeah I
18:59
think you gotta have your taco accent to
19:02
