Just Some BS
Welcome to Just Some BS—the podcast for high-potential humans trying to figure it out without pretending they’ve got it all together.
Hosted by Brandon, this is where personal growth meets real talk, career chaos meets clarity, and leadership lessons are served with a side of sarcasm.
Each episode is part journal, part pep talk, part “did they just say that?”
Expect stories from the trenches of work and life, honest reflections, and the kind of insights you’d only get from someone who’s been through the BS and decided to podcast about it.
If you're into ambition, awkwardness, and a little bit of absurdity—you’re home.
New episodes every Tuesday.
Stay weird.

Epic Universe vs. Disney World: Best Rides, Express Pass Math & Food Wins (w/ Cole)
Planning Orlando and torn between Universal’s Epic Universe and Walt Disney World? In this BS-free breakdown, Brandon and theme-park superfan Cole compare the parks head-to-head—covering best rides, Express Pass/VIP value, crowd strategy, and can’t-miss food so you get more fun per dollar (and fewer lines).
In this episode you’ll learn:
- Quick verdict: Disney still owns magic & nostalgia; Universal wins thrills & value.
- Ride strategy at Epic Universe: hit the non-Express headliners first (e.g., Donkey Kong, Dragon Racer’s Rally), then circle back to Battle for the Ministry midday.
- Top rides worth the wait: Monsters Unchained (jaw-dropping animatronics), Hagrid’s (pure joy), Stardust Racers (beautiful chaos).
- Hard pass: why Fast & Furious – Supercharged is an easy skip.
- Express Pass & VIP math: when Premier hotels (that include Express) beat buying it à la carte, and how VIP—with included meals—can pay for itself on crowded days.
- Crowd hacks: save Super Nintendo World and Wizarding World for after 3 PM; use Celestial Park as your decompression zone.
- Food wins: Pizza Moon (order at the table), Oak & Star Tavern breakfast (get the cornbread), Atlantic for a chill dinner, Frozen Butterbeer, and the Isle of Berk mac-and-cheese cone with pulled pork.
- How many days you really need: with VIP, plan 3 days (2 legacy parks + 1 Epic); without VIP, 4 days to breathe and catch shows.
