Episode Description

Joe's back from his weeklong trip with his family and learned that no strategy ever survives first contact. He picked up some tips for how to use Genie+ with an odd sized family (5) and kids who will not get up for rope drop. Plus - a pretty solid way to get those individual lightning lanes that worked for him.
