Justin and Brett's Tour of Central Florida
Jurbs and Brett are in Orlando for a GoGame. In the mean time, they went to a WWE NXT wrestling event and then went to Disney's water park, "Typhoon Lagoon".
Perhaps the most interesting moment of their tour so far was when they got back to check into their hotel. It was pretty nice, there was a intimidating looking balding man with a ponytail and a leather jacket at the front desk, however there was one small issue with their room: the toilet doesn't work at all. They explained to the man that they "take mad crazy shits. So [they] need it to work WELL". In order to rectify their situation, balding ponytail man sent them to their "sister hotel" which is "actually pretty good". Unfortunately, they were sent to a completely unaffiliated hotel filled with 40 other people looking for rooms that weren't available.
Justin ended up overpaying for a room at another hotel, but hey… it's only two nights and The Go Game is paying for it. They get to the hotel and "Hey man, funny story. We don't have any more rooms." Luckily the guy at this hotel had his shit together and hooked them up with a room at another hotel.
Brian then told the story of the time he was trying to get a room in a hotel, was denied and totally played the asshole card.

Mission Pic
Over the past few months, Brett has been working on an app that he hasn't been able to talk about until right now. It's called Mission Pic and it's under review in the App Store at the time of recording this episode. It's a game in which there is a daily challenge in which everyone can compete. Each day, players will be directed to take a picture of some thing or relating to some theme. You can then vote for your friends entries and whoever gets the most votes at the end of the day is declared the winner.
Brian and Justin invited the Chatrealm to #JoinTheConversation and suggest some topics for the Mission Pic app. It went about as well as you would expect with the Chatrealm suggesting things.
You can get updates on the app on twitter @MissionPic.
