The Disney Crush Podcast

This week on the show, sometimes it's not just about the rides... It's about the people you share the magic with. In this episode, we're talking about something special-meeting up in the parks and turning an ordinary Disney day into an unforgettable celebration. Celebrating an anniversary, a birthday, a meet-up, and even a scavenger hunt. www.thedisneycrush.com thedisneycrush@gmail.com www.patreon.com/thedisneycrush  

Episode #432   Disney Hot Takes, Where pixie dust meets real talk.  This is not your typical "everything is perfect" show, we're going to give you our opinions, unpopular views, and have an honest conversation about the parks, movies, food, prices, and everything in between. From overrated attractions and underrated snacks to the truth about park hopping, and whether the magic is still worth the money-nothing is off limits.  Whether you're a first-timer, a seasoned park veteran, or someone planning a trip, you'll get laughs, real talk, and maybe a few opinions that make you say, ' I can't believe they said that!"  www.thedisneycrush.com thedisneycrush@gmail.com www.patreon.com/thrdineycrush
