215 – From The People Who Brought You Kelp
In this episode of The Gay Mix, Adam kicks things off by recapping a celebrity chef dinner he and his husband Marc attended at a casino near the Arkansas-Oklahoma border, featuring Chopped judge Scott Conant. The evening came with some colorful complications — a smoker parked next to the line, a visibly sick and sweating chef, and Adam’s strategic dash to be first in line for the signed cookbook. Daniel then shares his experience at “Goofy’s Mystiki Tour,” a Walt Disney World cast member trivia and puzzle event held after hours at Animal Kingdom, where his team tackled 50 deep-cut Disney trivia questions and 12 puzzles but ultimately fell short of solving the final challenge. The two also hatch a real-time plan to send an edible fruit arrangement to their fellow podcaster “Big Fatty,” who’s staying at an Embassy Suites in Las Vegas — a bit that runs hilariously through the entire episode.
The show features their recurring segments, including the “Contact” segment with listener voicemails (highlighted by their “Celebrity Death Phone” calls reporting the passing of Bud Cort, Robert Duvall, and Eric Dane), a homegrown news quiz where Daniel scores 3 out of 5, and a speed round of Disney Trivial Pursuit. They dig into their thoughts on the season 50 premiere of Survivor and the finale of The Traitors, with Adam conflicted about the winning traitor’s ruthless betrayal strategy and Daniel geeking out over continuity editing mistakes he spotted in both shows. A birthday segment rounds things out with audio clues for Josh Groban, Michael Bolton, producer Max Martin, and actress Téa Leoni.
