To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! Wow, what a day it was. D23 hasn't happened yet and it's already a fail! There is a lot of ranting in this episode about D23 and their pre-sales, Halloween and Anthony is with us so there's always something.

To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! Just when you thought we were going to be away again, BAM! We hit you with a new episode. Anthony has moved to Oregon and is enjoying the snow and ice. Meanwhile, Dan and Gina survive Disney in the rain and it's not like you think. Sometimes you just need a snack. Lunar New Year came and left as quick as the merchandise, but the food was great! Spirit jerseys featuring food are all the rage. Are they though and are they worth the price? Loungeflies, popcorn buckets and chocolate chips cookies and remember if you don't like content that is made by creators, just keep scrolling it wasn't made for you anyway!. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! Can you ever really get rid of us? It's been a while, but the future looks bright for us to continue from here on out.

To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! Dan and Gina were able to get together and ride Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway this last one and this podcast almost was a runaway as Anthony did not hold back his thoughts on the version of Mickey the ride uses. We discuss the line and how this ride is similar and different than both Rise of the Resistance and Mario Kart: Bowser's Challenge that just opened officially at Universal. There is always food involved so Dan breaks down his trip to Cafe Orleans and both he and Gina sampled some of the Lunar New Year food. Hear about Gina's birthday at Carthay, Dan checking out Wondrous Journeys, the display at the Grand Californian and much more including a special appearance by Michael who will even be in the Disney parks soon. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! On this special (I guess) episode of the Disney Culture podcast, it's all Universal. Dan and Anthony were able to go to the passholder preview (was it really a preview though) of Universal's new Super Nintendo World and they give you all their thoughts on the process and the new land. Trust me there is a lot of them. This one needs to explicit warning label on it, especially when it comes to how Universal handles (or doesn't handle) their organization. Catch our unique perspective on this one and as always come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! This time it's heavy on the Universal as we get ready to see the opening of Super (Mario) Nintendo World. Both Anthony and Dan will be checking out the passholder preview at Universal and they discuss their efforts to get that reservation, which was easy for Anthony, but time consuming for Dan. Of course we have some Disney talk as we gear up for the beginning of Disney 100, including already coming up on some of the merch. As usual we cover a lot of other random stuff including the planned Tiana's Palace to replace the French Market. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! We are back after an unexpected hiatus because of our personal lives, but here we are to give you a Haunted good time. The Haunted Mansion movie has just come out and we talk about it and all the merch that of course comes with it. Dan goes over what he saw at San Diego Comic-Con, which was much different this year due to the ongoing strikes, but still a lot of fun. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! Some of the biggest news comes from Universal who is about to open Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios. We discuss what this might mean and why they chose to open it the way they did. Dan had the time of his life being able to visit Club 33 for the first time, he talks a bit about that. Christmas time is still going on at the parks, but the magic really is gone with most magic keys blocked until the new year. Lots of other random stuff from the Muppets Christmas Carol to the Guardians Holiday Special and lots more in between. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! We heard a little bit about some guys named Bob, so of course we talk about that. Unlike one Bob, however, Wakanda is forever and Dan talks about that. You know what we like about the parks? Eating, so Dan is trying a new challenge as far as eating in the parks. Dream Keys went on sale for a few hours and of course Disney+ has a lot of it, though it probably gave one Bob a job and the other Bob lost his because of it. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! It's Halloweentime (or the very end of it) so that means Christmas had already started at the parks. This episode we talk about Andor and She-Hulk, which we are still trying to figure out what happened at the end and where this will go from here, but since it's spooky season we also talk about Hocus Pocus, both 1 and 2 and the Sanderson Sisters as well as the brilliant Werewolf by Night. Christmas time has almost started at the parks and the decor and merchandise definitely shows it. Dan talks about being stuck on the bus from Toy Story for an hour along with a guy who took the holiday musk too seriously with his Halloween jacket. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast welcome! It's been a while, but we are back. Things just got busy over the summer. There is so much to talk about we barely got to talk about any of it and just went with what was on our minds. We aren't a news site so we don't cover the latest and greatest we talk about our experiences. A little bit of Halloweentime, which started in August, a little D23, because we know you already heard all the announcements, plus just what we have been up to when it comes to the park. Always a fun listen and probably some bad jokes and oh yeah we make fun of so-called influencers. Give it a listen. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast welcome! Dan is close to ending his quarantine and Gina went solo to the parks, so they talk about recent adventures in the park, Dan before he got sick and Gina fairly recently. They talk about how Universal hosted a passholder party and ponder why everyone doesn't offer mobile ordering. Random tidbits here and there for a bunch of stuff to keep Dan out of boredom. Just some good storytelling here about the Electrical Parade, Oga's, and of course slushies! Give it a listen. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast welcome! This episode is all things Star Wars except for that part where we cover the reopening of Fantasmic, but it has Star Wars in the story so it counts. Gina and Dan give their experiences on Disneyland After Dark: Star Wars Nite that happened in conjunction with Star Wars Celebration. Both Gina and Dan attended the Star Wars Nite, but had very different experiences in what they wanted to do that night. Dan attended all four days of Star Wars Celebration and gives all kinds of info on things that went down and there was still plenty he didn't even see. Before all that the two talk the return of Fantasmic which Gina was supposed to go see on a reservation an Dan wasn't, but the roles ended up reversing and Dan saw it on opening day. Plenty of Star Wars and Fantasmic goodness in this one. Give it a listen. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast welcome! In this episode we are springing back into things because it has been a while since we have talked. Gina gives a rundown on what the trams are like and we just update everyone on experiences and happenings at the park. From trees at Pirates, hunting eggs at the returning Eggstravaganza, hotel rooms for Star Wars Celebration and some Halcyon talk we just go through a bunch of different topics including what could be Dan's worst experience at the Disney parks. All this and some Turning Red. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast welcome! In this episode we talk all the food and by that we mean the tastings from Lunar New Year. There was lots of good stuff, not like the Festival of Holidays. All kinds of things were had and tried and we give a breakdown of what had. Super Bowl fever hit the parks. Gina was there to give us a report of what DCA was like on the day of the Big Game. We talk Harry Potter wands, building lightsabers, and of course the trams returning because did you know the trams are returning? Did we see that more than the mask mandates that just dropped on our social medias? Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
To all who come to this happy podcast welcome! We are back in the spirit (jersey) here with the last episode of 2021. It's been a busy month. We talk about The Book of Boba Fett, Hawkeye, and of course Spider-Man No Way Home. We speak of Disney in the rain during the holidays, how Genie+ works, Dan getting in the spirit and going to check out the Candlelight Processional. Where would we be without a rant on Knott's included? There is plenty to keep you entertained before you go back to work. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!
