So, you know how your teachers always used to tell you to save your documents as you went and to back them up? I should’ve listened to them! This week we recorded a fun podcast all about our Top Ten Disney Villains of all time. Somehow, some way, that show was erased and can not be recovered.
My Mac crashed and with it went my latest podcast episode. Instead of the full show, I’m sharing my favorite ever answer from Bob Gurr!
When thinking of Walt Disney World and Disneyland, “scary” isn’t one of the first words that probably comes to mind.

Come with me this week for a virtual ride along Disneyland’s extinct Mine Train Through Nature’s Wonderland. We’ll encounter bears, beavers, and bad impressions!

Which cast members do we think have the best jobs in Walt Disney World? Some surprises are in store in our Top Ten this week!
The Disney parks are loaded with tributes to Disney Imagineers, former attractions, shows, and even restaurants.

Check out the Word of the Week – Halloween Tree.
Have you heard of the Halloween Tree? Do you know where to find it? I’ll answer those questions and more on this week’s show!
The Disney theme parks normally step up to the plate and hit it out of the park. Most attractions, restaurants, lands and stores are big hits with Disney fans everywhere. But what happens on the rare occasion when Disney gets it wrong? I’ll talk all about that one Episode 139: Biggest Disney Park Flops.
Disney normally hits everything out of the park. But, once in a while, they don’t. For every five Flights of Passage there’s one Stitch’s Supersonic Celebration.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios has changed more than any other Disney theme park. It started as a working movie studio, added many properties that weren’t Disney related or owned, and is now about to become something totally different with the additions of Toy Story Land and Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. We’ve lost a lot over the years and that’s exactly what we’ll be talking about on Episode 138: Top Ten Things We Miss in Hollywood Studios.
From Lights, Camera, Action, to the Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights, listen in as we talk about all of the things we miss in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

I love learning about the history of Walt Disney World. That’s why when I had the chance to spend an evening hanging out with Disney Legend Bob Gurr, I jumped at the opportunity. We sat, ate pizza, talked about Walt Disney, then talked about time travel. I can start to fill you in on Episode 135: A Sound of Thunder Mountain, which is the first of a 3 part series this week.
Before you get too far down into this rabbit hole with me, this all happened after a chat with a certain Disney Legend one night. What you’re about to hear is true. (Part 1 of 3)

Remember the Plaza Swan Boats in Magic Kingdom? How about the Pocahontas show in Hollywood Studios? Hop in the DeLorean with me for a ride back!
This week my family and I are in Walt Disney World for a weeklong vacation. We’re all getting our first look at the long-awaited Toy Story Land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. We’re going to give you our opinions on this week’s show, Episode 131: Honest Review of Toy Story Land!
I have to be honest, I went into Toy Story Land skeptically. I didn’t think it looked like much from the photos & videos. So what did I think in person? Just click play!
Walt Disney was a very proud American. It seems only fitting that his theme parks would continue the tradition of honoring America in the decades since he last walked through Disneyland. I’ll talk all about it on Episode 130: A Salute to All Nations, But Mostly America.

If you’ve ever dreamed of walking where Walt Disney walked, touching what he touched, and seeing and hearing what he saw and heard, then this episode is meant for you. I hope you enjoy it!
This week I have been lucky enough to spend a few days in Southern California and in Disneyland. I’ve done more in a 3 day span that a lot of Disney fans might get to do in a lifetime, and I’m not taking any of that for granted! One of the cool things I got to do was record this episode live while I was walking around Disneyland park. I hope you enjoy Episode 128: A Walking Tour of Disneyland!
The nostalgia and Walt Disney’s presence in Disneyland are overwhelming. Join me on a walking tour through my favorite theme park!
