Episode 713 – WDW BGM Madness Results/2023 Predictions Revisited
On this week’s show, Bryce Yelverton and Sarah Evans join me again to reveal the winner of Walt Disney World Background Music Madness.

Episode 711 – Castles
On this week’s show, I have a major announcement to make at the very top. Then, I’ll take you on an in-depth look at the Disney castles from the theme parks around the world. As most of you know, Walt Disney started the legacy of the Disney company’s iconic castle logo way back in 1955 when he opened Disneyland with Sleeping Beauty castle placed directly in the main view of guests as they walked into his park. This week, I’ll take you a little further into that castle with some stories and fun facts and then we’ll visit all of the other castles around the world and talk about their inspirations, the attractions within them, which one is the tallest, and which one almost wasn’t even a castle at all.
Episode 708 – Monsters, Inc.
On this week’s show, we’re taking an in-depth look at the 2001 hit Disney Pixar film “Monsters, Inc.” starring the voice talents of Billy Crystal and John Goodman. This light-hearted comedy about monsters who scare children in order to collect their screams to power their city Monstropolis, started out years earlier as a discussion topic over lunch between several Pixar filmmakers during the making of Toy Story. This blue sky idea went through multiple iterations before finally settling on the film we know today with James P. Sullivan and Mike Wazowski. It went on to spawn a prequel (“Monsters University”), an animated short, a Disney+ television series, several theme park attractions in Disney parks around the world, and more! Bryce Yelverton joins me for a look at Mosters, Inc!

Episode 694 – Walt Disney World Thrill Rides
On this week’s show, I’m showcasing the 19 thrill rides in all of Walt Disney World’s 4 major theme parks. Many people know that Disney has some of the best family attractions found in any theme park around the world, but sometimes I feel like not enough credit is given to Disney’s many thrill rides. In fact, I’ve routinely heard my friends refer to Disney parks as being “for kids” or “where you want to go if you want to ride kiddie rides”. Walt Disney World has some pretty thrilling attractions with some fascinating facts behind the rides and amazing story and details attached to them. Together, we’ll take a look at all 19 of these attractions in Walt Disney World and what makes each of them so unique and special in their own way.

Episode 692 – How Does Disney Do That?
On this week’s show, I’m joined by special guest author James Warda to discuss some of the answers to a question that I’m sure every one of us has asked multiple times, “How does Disney do that?” We all have a memory of that moment in time that we experienced an attraction or a show in the theme parks and we came away from the experience so completely blown away. Whether it was the impressive technology, the emotional impact, or the way the experience achieved something we thought was completely impossible and against the laws of physics, the question is always the same…..”How does Disney do that?”. James Warda set up a site devoted to Disney fans sharing their experiences and then teamed up with a former Creative Executive at Walt Disney Imagineering to help answer some of these questions in the upcoming book titled, “How Does Disney Do That?”. We’ll talk about these and a whole lot more!

As Disney fans, many of us are partial to Disney theme parks and the Disney brand itself, but many of us (myself included) also really enjoy Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, City Walk, and the Universal property hotels. I’m joined this week by Adria and Carey from our Disney Conversation Starters panel to talk about some of the differences between Disney and Universal, what what makes both of them unique and enjoyable vacation destinations, and what you might want to know before deciding on which one to visit on your next trip to Florida.
Episode 682 – My Favorite WDW Resort Hotels
On this week’s show, I’m counting down through a list of all 22 of the Disney-owned resort hotels in Walt Disney World as they appear on my list of favorites. Over the years, I have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to stay at just about every one of the resort hotels on Disney property in the “Disney bubble”. I’ve also spent countless hours touring and enjoying many of these resort hotels even when I haven’t been staying at them. They all have something unique to offer Disney guests and they all contain that special Disney magic. However, many of these hotels have captivated me in various different ways, and I’ve accepted the task of putting them in order from my favorite #1 resort to my least favorite (but still pretty awesome) resort. Join me as I go through this list and talk about these things that makes each of these resorts unique and satisfying.

While there were many moments of hot, sweaty, misery, there were also some fun times we had along the way. We even got them chance to partake in some brand new experiences like Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and Harmonious at Epcot, breakfast at Topolino’s Terrace at Disney’s Riviera Resort, Volcano Bay waterpark at Universal Orlando, and much more.

We don’t know what we’ll end up talking about or where the conversation will take us, but we do know that, whatever it is, will be full of varying opinions, a lot of laughs, and who knows, maybe even a little bit of controversy.
5 Things I Can’t Wait To Do in Walt Disney World After The Summer
As a Floridian who has the luxury of being able to visit the Walt Disney World theme parks whenever I want, I almost never venture out into the parks in between the months of June and September when the Florida heat and crowds are at its highest peak. So, naturally, there tends to be a buildup of new things that have opened at the parks in the meantime that I can’t wait to experience once the summer heat and crowds have died down.
