>> I'm proud to announce our next Disney experience story living by Disney
all new Disney branded master planned residential communities
designed to be the perfect setting for Disney fans. To write the next exciting
chapter in their lives and some neighborhoods will be planned for residents ages 55 over.
Story living by Disney allows us to leverage what we do best world class service, legendary
storytelling and creativity. This exciting new venture will enhance, extend and strengthen the
Disney brand. By allowing us to bring the magic of Disney to places you may never have expected.
>> What, they just have too much money now they're just getting Disney.
Do you not get what your thing is, you do the mouse and you do the roller coaster and you've
got the mandalorian, you're not supposed to be a Trump what are you doing real estate for?
But anyway, storyliving by Disney will be part of the same division that oversees theme parks,
Disney Cruise Line and other experiences there.
The first community which would be known as Cotino and include about 1,900 housing
units will be built in the palm springs city of Rancho Mirage, California. So I guess it's
coming to over here to California, Jordan, what is this?
>> It's a scam, I mean, >> Is it, I don't even know.
>> It is it, I don't know, it's also just I realize who I'm talking to,
but Disney adults are weird. This is heaven for Disney adults, people who I just can't,
it is the weirdest type of person. To me, I don't understand the Disney adult
psyche and the fact that people not only want to go to the park as adults.
I don't get that, but that they wanna live in a Disney themed villages type scenario is even
more bizarre, it is really confusing. Perhaps we're gonna disagree a little bit because
I'm an adult, I know, I guess I like, I'm talking to you.
I mean, look, here's the thing, I like going to Disney,
I have been twice over the last two years and I was never at a Disney before that in my life.
So are there people who are really obsessed with Disney? Probably what I'm curious about is,
I'm not sure that what they seem to be selling in the video is actually what you're gonna get.
They keep bashing up, video of a woman using markers with voice over of
write the next chapter in the story of your life, but you're not writing a Disney movie.
Why are they implying that like you're involved in the creative process?
There were like characters running around and kids looking at them, are there gonna be
characters working in these neighborhoods. >> Just wandering around like Daffy Duck
is just gonna be looking in your window
while you eat dinner, I don't think that's what's really gonna happen.
>> You're late on rent and Minnie Mouse shows up at your door to collect, it's getting evicted by
Goofy. >>
You're behind I don't know, is that what's going to happen,
anyway, prices and financing and other details have not been announced? Well, I should say
prices, financing and other details including what the hell this is about, has not been announced.
And by the way, they're not going to own the communities or be the developer of record or
build the houses or sell the houses. But somehow this is a Disney thing, so
I don't understand anything that's going on. Just we have a major set of interconnected problems
in the US when it comes to housing housing, affordability,
housing access, I have a feeling this is not the solution to any of these problems.
>> It's also just another example of just the growing monopoly problem we have here.
You have all of these companies in every different industry,
Amazon is in retail, it's in television, it's in web hosting, it's in food supply
and groceries. And Facebook and Google have tried to expand their reach into other markets as well,
we're just going back to the late 19th century, early 20th century.
>> Yeah. >> Monopolistic era and that's really like them,
in what world does this make sense, unless it's like even still, it's kinda
insidious. But a timeshare might make a little more sense but this is like permanent living,
this is they just want to be landlords now. >> Yeah, you're gonna be like living in the
Garfield house and I think you should leave basically like that's what they're setting up.
Anyway, here's what's gonna happen in less than five years and we're gonna be
told when it happens that it's the best thing ever. Elon Musk is going to start up his own
neighborhood that Tesla employees will have to live in, they will be paid in Ellen coin,
all of their records will be stored in NFTS.
All we have done is create company towns and old school feudalism
with a thin veneer of cyberpunk 2077 over it,
that's all the future is. And I don't like it. >> And you sound like of like cyberpunk.
>> But I don't like it. >> Have you seen sorry to bother you?
>> The about the telemarketers? >> Yeah.
>> No no I haven't seen it. >> You really got to check it out,
there's like a there's a plot line in that where we're kind of in this
semi dystopian future. Where kind of this Elon musk or Jeff Bezos
figure has just created this exciting new world where people can live at their job.
And it's like really cost efficient and you just basically are in prison but it's like it's
popularized on MTV through this like kind of like MTV cribs style show. It's like,
it's so cool, we would hang out after work with all my friends and we sleep in bunk beds and we
can't go anywhere and we just, it's easy access to work, that's kind of where we're heading.
>> If they had a board game library, I'd be down, anyway. Anyway, we were gonna get into, there
was a naked drunken brawl at walt Disney World recently. I don't think we have time for it but
maybe if that's happening at these communities that would be cool.
Or not fully naked, you're wearing the head of a character,
maybe that would be cool, I don't know but I'm sure they'll iterate on the idea.
