Who would have thought that we’d already be at episode number 5! Welcome, one and all! In this week’s housekeeping, we are very excited to announce our upcoming “family” trip, next April. Following this, the first story is one that will break the internet – literally! With the release of Disney Plus looming, we learn all about what we can come to expect, regarding shows, pricing, and bundles! Chestnuts roast on open fires, as we discuss some more fresh-announced Holiday shows and merchandise. We end the episode by putting a neat bow on the final day of our recent September trip; where Jenn and her mother took a jaunt through Animal Kingdom, before heading home.

And of course, we never want to neglect the opportunity to say how overwhelmingly grateful we are, to have listeners as awesome as you. It brings us boundless joy to know you are out there! Thank you!

Hello, and welcome once again to our show! To make up for running over in last week’s episode, this week’s show is a little shorter! Our first bit of news is cause for celebration as a “bad call” mentioned last week gets reversed! Following this, we crack on with some “’tis the season”-al news, as well as briefly mention our F&WF experience in Disneyland. Rounding out the episode, we discuss our experience ‘not too long ago, in the state far far South’ — and how we were over the moon about Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.

Finally, we really want to just say thank you, again, to everyone. It’s wonderful to know that there are so many of you out there who are interested in what we have to say! We hope you enjoy the show!

Wonderful to see you all, again, thanks for lending us your ears! This week’s episode is a little longer: we just had SO much to talk about! We start with a little “housekeeping”; clearing up some things from last week’s episode, and looking to our trip on the horizon! Next, we voice our disapproval of the FuelRod debacle. Afterwards, our discussion turns to future updates to Star Tours in Hollywood Studios, and the return of a dining event to Animal Kingdom. The second half of the episode follows our take on some of the 2019 Food and Wine Festival booths, and wraps up with a story and request to all: Cast Members are people too — honor them with a Cast Compliment!

Thank you all, again, for your continued support! It means the world! Thanks for listening, we hope you enjoy!

Welcome back to our podcast! Episode 2 covers a lot of ground: First when discussing our weekend, we suddenly take on the roles of “movie critics”, we continue the theme as we discuss the success (or not) of the Maleficent sequel in theaters, we discuss our excitement for the upcoming food at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and our equal excitement and fear of the upcoming Rise: Of: The: Resistance ride, we hear the silver bells a-ringing in the distance for the Candlelight processional, and wrap it all up with our review of this year’s Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party.

Thanks, again for listening! We hope you enjoy!

We finally did it – we made our first podcast episode! Inside, we discuss a little bit of our Disney background from childhood to adulthood. We also touch on some recent Disney news, which both takes us Sky high (see what we did there?) and also finds us planning future couch potato sessions . Finally we wrap things up with Jenn answering some Disney tag questions, and Stefan having a hard time choosing his favorites.

Thank you for visiting! We hope you enjoy!
