Joe and Taylor are back together for another chaotic catch-up session, and this one goes everywhere. The conversation starts with a surprisingly passionate debate over whether the Liberty Square Riverboat counts as a “ride,” leading Joe into a deep Disney Parks tangent involving vintage attraction references, forced perspective tricks, Disneyland merch, and why he bought a shirt purely out of spite. Taylor counters with Disney World lore of his own, including Epcot’s Ratatouille ride design and Cinderella Castle secrets. From there, the show takes a hard left turn into Taylor’s recent kidney stone procedure, complete with horrifying details about stents, lasers, and medical trauma that may permanently scar listeners for life. Somehow this leads into discussions about Alice, Christian’s commentary habits, and why everyone needs escapist podcasts right now. Joe and Taylor also talk about recent family emergencies, the importance of entertainment as a refuge from nonstop bad news, and the strange comfort of podcast routines. Plus: Drag Race watch parties, Paramount+ convenience, Robert discovering the depths of Evil John lore, and a heated debate over which Masters of the Universe doll Evil John will inevitably bring to an upcoming event. There’s also a deep dive into childhood toy obsessions, Castle Grayskull memories, Star Wars playsets, RuPaul collectibles, Patreon strategy talk, and the possibility of launching an official Evil John doll prediction contest. It’s Just Between Us Girls at its most unhinged: Disney adults, medical horror stories, drag queens, toys, trauma, and friendship.
