28:46 i wanna add on a few things since i was also attending - my room had a broken window and had some bird shit on the couch - the apartment in the zone behind me was unoccupied but had a DEAD SEAGULL inside (i could see it from my kitchen) - one apartment had deadly mushrooms growing on the walls - many of them didn't have water heaters, though aiden mentioned that, but i really wanna insist that there was a significant amount of rooms that somehow didn't have water heaters - one player opened his apartment and it was completely trashed - someone had a broken sink in his bathroom - one room had dried blood on the mirror... which obviously is very unsettling but best week of my life and would totally go there again next year

I don't know how many places you've visited in the UK boys, but here every single county has one of these "resorts". It's essentially our version of low level mental asylums, where the staff and patients annually rotate between being guests and employees. The patients slowly eat away at the staff's sanity but in return gain some themselves, so after 5 years they're all an acceptable level of crazy for general society, so are re-released into the normal world, then the place is refurbished for a month before the newest cohort move in, you guys must be here just before a refurb cycle. Cool to hear your guys' fresh opinions on a place like that, as rowdy teens we'd go to our local one and throw rocks and stuff to distract the patients off their pathing and basically played a non-lethal Last of Us. Would highly recommend trying, good memories...

@@ItsWindHere its real. alot of them were built after ww2 when there was a sudden economic boom so poorer families started going on holiday but air travel was still prohibitivly expensive so your best option for a holiday was to travel to a different part of the country. at the time places like these were seen as pretty nice and they were huge buisness'. Butlins which was the biggest chain of all in one resorts had 9 seperate locations across the country. Once air travel became afordable and as our comprehensive rail network started to close many local branches its was not much more money to go to Europe and so these sorts of resorts started clsoing, butlins now only has 3 locations. The resorts now are often very dated becasue they havnt had the money to refurbish for a long time. My grandfather lived in Bognor Regis which has one of the last Butlins and he used to call it Butlitz, which was fitting.

Love that this is on the Pontin's wikipedia page: Direct discrimination against Irish people In March 2021, the i newspaper revealed an internal Pontins document listing surnames associated with "undesirable guests", all being common Irish surnames. This was done in order to filter out bookings from gypsies and travellers. This was investigated by the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) who found Pontins was "directly discriminating on the basis of race" and breached the Equality Act 2010.The Britannia Hotel Group, which owns Pontins, signed an agreement with the EHRC promising to end the practice.

i think this podcast and episodes like this one in particular do such a good job of showing people what the melee community is like. i found you guys through melee, not the other way around like i assume a lot of your viewers, so *i* know that the melee community are cool and fun and wild and have really out of the ordinary senses of humor but are really tight knit and stuff, *i* know that we just wanna play our favorite game and any success that does or doesnt come out of that is secondary, but i think you guys do a great job of conveying that to people who dont know anything about melee or the community. like, genuinely. i get why people who dont play melee would look into it after watching the yard, because i think you do a great job of showing why it's appealing. it's not just the game. the game is great and that's a huge part of it, but there's an essence that this community has that very, very few other communities have.
