ParoDeeJay description on YouTube:

Parody. Cruise. Music. Travel. Cooking. Shenanigans. Repeat. Salutations! We are Dee & Jay of the House ParoDeeJay, first of our names, makers of songs, cruisers of ships, the sometimes-sunburnt, creators of nonsense, vloggers of randomness, and parents of kitties. We started our YouTube journey in 2013 as a way to release homemade, no-budget parody and cover songs, and eventually added videos on cooking, challenges, gaming, travel & more. Basically, our channel is a big ol' mixed bag of things that we enjoy, and we hope you'll join us for some crazy adventures!! :D

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

β€œI approve of this dish 900%.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertParoDeeJay

β€œWe can't say that we probably had I'm not even going to say probably we had the best meal of the cruise so far and possibly one of the best meals we've ever had on Virgin Voyages.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertParoDeeJay

β€œWe don't think we could have crammed in more than we did, it was such a good day. It was absolutely awesome.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertParoDeeJay

β€œOverall, probably could not have asked for a more scenic, more peaceful, more beautiful way to tie a little ribbon on Japan as it were.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertParoDeeJay

β€œLegit the best coffee I've ever had in my entire life.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertParoDeeJay
The Watch-outs

β€œI am like 0% a fan of this. I'll I'll be on the record. I'm probably about 0%.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertParoDeeJay

β€œThe perks are essentially the same as before if you're used to how their program worked. But there's several things that went missing. They're gone. Gone forever.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertParoDeeJay

β€œI would never order this again in my whole life I mean it wasn't terrible but it was overcooked”

πŸ₯ˆExpertParoDeeJay

β€œIt tastes like liquid corn. Ew. It'll make you cry. It will.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertParoDeeJay

β€œIt was kind of blindsiding everybody because everybody was like, 'Oh, hey, they're going to make an announcement about the loyalty.'”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for ParoDeeJay.

  1. Let your friends plan the day if they have different experience levels with the destination.

  2. Book specialty reservations early (e.g., Butcher's Cut)

  3. Use burst mode (spray and prey) when photographing fast-moving animals.

  4. For Puerto Rico, consider visiting the El Yunque rainforest or exploring Old San Juan for history and shopping.

  5. When traveling to Europe, use an ATM to withdraw local currency to minimize fees rather than relying solely on exchange booths.

  6. If flying for a cruise, ensure you have a Real ID to avoid extra paperwork.

  7. If you are going to a new area, stick to a cruise line you are familiar with.

  8. For solo travelers looking to meet people, Virgin Voyages and Norwegian have good solo programs/meetups.
