We return to our most popular and most useful series! This one might take a bit.

Please enjoy this comparison of Casey Jr's Circus Train versus the train that b rings you to Rafiki's Planet Watch! They're both trains and we love trains. Lots of history, lots of design elements. This was a fun episode and you can enjoy it too. It's the battle between an original Disneyland attraction versus a mode of transport to the latest Disney World attraction!
[SPOLIERS] Sorry, Jimmy's client.

Your Supreme Resort friends are continuing their June hiatus with some help from The Harrison Comparison who are also on a hiatus. I guess there's an episode here about the Carousel of Progress. If you're fans of The Dollywood Reporter, you may have heard this one, but our download numbers say you haven't.
Enjoy regardless. TSR will return.

A classic episode released with new content, you say? Why yes! That's what this is.
Thrill as friends of TSR, The Harrison Comparison, help us out for the next few episodes. We asked for a favor for a few weeks and they decided to unlock some episodes from other shows.
Anyway, here's some great content from the BoysenBoyz about Knott's Berry Farm. Erik from TSR is still here to make sure that he is frustrated at the tomfoolery. If you like food podcasts and interviews with Old West guys, you're in luck.
This episode was originally posted by the BoysenBoyz in 2022.

Journey into the Adventure of two nearly-identical attractions. It's the Little Mermaid rides in Disney California Adventure and the Magic Kingdom! The settings couldn't be more different between these two rides, but we will determine which is better. At least we'll try.
Kind of.
We're back into histories, queues, ride experiences, and the impact of these attractions on their respective lands. Keep those ears open as Jimmy digs up some of those crazy details that we love.
Watch out for any strange squid sorceresses. And puns. Lots of puns.

You're in for a good one today, folks! Continuing our dalliance outside the Disney Parks, we compare Disney's only current stunt show and its long-running counterpart at Universal Studios Hollywood.
Who will win? The aged show with the aged but still beloved IP in Hollywood Studios? What about the stunt spectacular based on an IP that few remember, much less love?
And hey, we talk a bit about the new Epic Universe news as well. There's a lot going on in the theme parkiverse and we're here to maybe see some of it!
Give us a listen . . . shall you?

It was inevitable.
We can't stay within the confines of Disneyland Resort forever. Come on. Walt Disney World has a safari hotel.
Anywho, in this episode the Supreme Jerks review the history of teppanyaki dining. EPCOT has Teppan Edo, so there's out connection. Benihana popularized the whole thing and there's one in Anaheim and we went there too. It's a whole thing.
Which will win: Disney Japan or Fake Japan? I mean Fake(er) Japan.
Only your intrepid hosts know for sure.

And so it was that they invited Tage yet again. Why Tage joined them, we'll never know. He's so cool. They drool. Drool. Pools. That rhymes, so let's go with that.
Pools. Pools. Put your hand up if you love to swim.
We finally get around to figuring out which pool is the best. You're welcome. I'm tired. Can you tell Erik wrote this one at 3am? Can you tell Dan wrote a bunch of songs? Now you can. Please tell your friends.
Good night. Also seriously, please tell your friends.

It's that time again! It's March and time for brackets. This year, we are discussing the best Disney resort hotel pool in the domestic parks. We threw in a couple "Good Neighbor" hotels to round out the wild card bracket.
Hear Dan, Erik and Jimmy discuss the top 32 down to the top 16. Tune in next time to hear friend of the show Tage (DL Weekly, The Hub Crawl) determine the Supreme hotel pool at Disney.

"Hall of Presidents", Originally envisioned as "One Nation Under God" has been a staple at Magic Kingdom since opening in 1971. "Great Moments with Mr Lincoln" since 1964.
Both are important attractions, but which does it better?
Dan Erik and Jimmy explore each attraction and what makes them special. With our modern age of communication, 24 hour news, social media and algorithms, is "Hall of Presidents" a better version of Walt's dream? Lincoln is not a divisive president like he may have been in the 1860s but if social media were around then, would we still have only 1 country?
this one isn;t really "political" but these are important topics. Which attraction will reign supreme? Listen to find out......maybe...

Walt Disney loved America and had a lot of big ideas about how to tell people about America and American things.
Join us! We're discussing which presidential tribute is the best between Disneyland and Walt Disney World. Feel free to yell at your phone or your streaming thing. Tell us your thoughts! We can't hear them anyway!
Yes, this is Part 1. That means we delve into the tangled history of these two attractions. We'll get to the rest of the current day attractions just after President's Day. We totally planned this out this year.
It's high time we talked about not a hotel!

We had a plan! We spent a lot of time scheduling out recording dates and topics and we swear it will be awesome! But, sometimes life happens and we have to default to something less daunting under the circumstances.
In future, we have a plan and we want to bring you the best quality content possible. So, here is the deal we are making with you listener:
If we release a wheel episode, something bad has probably happened to one of the hosts. You don't need to fell bad or reach out. well, maybe reach out, but rather, just take a second and think, oh, they must be in a bad place if they are resorting to this drivel. Then move on and listen. It's still fun.... right?
We love you and thank you for listening.

Hey, nerds, it’s me, Asher! This is my Christmas Dance Party, so get ready for bangers, sparkle booms, and CJ’s bad ideas! Also, Erik, Jimmy, and Dan are here too, doing whatever it is they do. It’s a chaotic holiday gift, but seriously, thanks for listening all year—you’re the real MVPs (even if you like orange gumdrops)
Dear Listener,
It's Jimmy, Erik and Dan now. 2024 was an interesting year for us hosts. We are so grateful for you. Thank you for listening to us for all of these years. We love doing this show and it is a great and welcome byproduct that you listen.

Thank you again
Jimmy, Dan and Erik

Aaaaand, we're back! And Welcome to the show "Real Dan". Gone are the days of that leftist woke pleb that is the character Dan has been playing for all these years and here are the days of the real dan telling it like it is.
Erik and Jimmy share the details and occasionally problematic history of the 4 moderate hotels at The Walt Disney World Resort. From the original moderate Disney's Caribbean Beach to the newer convention resort in Disney's Coronado Springs. We also discuss the history of Port Orleans with the French Quarter and the Splash Mountain esque Riverside (Formerly known as Dixie Landings) complete with confederate flags and cotton plantation vibes. Real Dan of course has no problem with any of it, until they got too woke and made it more inclusive and less "slavey"
Enjoy! Something for everyone!
