Disney Podcast Updates: April 1-15, 2010


My apologies to the podcasters for taking so long to get this one out…it fell near the end of the semester. I had already started with a regular update and wanted to continue that for most of the shows. I can guarantee that the next couple will be pretty much show descriptions so I can get caught back up…

 
71 shows in this update…enjoy!

 
If you are interested in listening to any of these episodes, I have links to subscribe for most of these shows in my post HERE. Also, if you're willing, you can help these shows out by posting a review over on iTunes. The more they get, the higher up they appear on searches. If you do start listening to a podcast as a result of what you've seen on here, please let the podcasters know!

 
As always, please note that this again is not a comprehensive list of the Disney Podcasts that are out there. Mike Hamilton has created Disneypodcastdirectory.net, which he periodically updates with new podcasts and removes dead casts. He also has the automated RSS (historical) feeds of the podcasts. This is more of a cross-section of what is currently being talked about…perhaps something may sound interesting, and you'll subscribe to listen to that topic.  Also, Shawn Rees does a similar set of posts over on thedisneyblog.com and covers some shows that I don't list here.

 
Any and all comments are welcomed! Also, if you know of another podcast that fits here, let me know.

 

 


    • 04/14/10 – Vidcast 16, Hold on to them hats and glasses, 'cause….wait…wrong coaster! Hold on even tighter, because we're on a ride-thru of California Screamin! Time: 3:23


    • 04/10/10 – Episode 66, Keegan is nearing graduation but still is able to release the shows (we're not worthy!) in this one, we get some audio from the short-lived Tiana's Showboat Jubilee, with comments from Keegan's musical perspective. Afterwards, we listen to evidence of the squishing of Keegan when he incorrectly chooses which side of the car on BTMRR while riding with LFFG (will only a DPN DF understand that last sentence?). Time: 50:01


    • 04/02/10 – Episode 155, (Mush: another packed show!) This week we're going to be talking about some must-do attractions in Walt Disney World for anyone who hasn't been in 10 years or more. There have been a lot of new attractions, shows, parades, and even restaurants that have opened over the last 10 years and we frequently get people who ask us what are some attractions that you must do if you haven't been in 10 years or more. This will be an in-depth look at those must-do things. We also have quite a few other smaller segments that we'll get to this week including a very interesting rumor about "Maleficent", a Jabberwocky song that was sent in to us by one of the AllAbouttheMouseketeers, a Mouse Call (to an accomplice to the procuring of the earlier Jabberwocky song), more additions to the AllAbouttheMouseketeer Roll Call, and Don Morin from the Pacific Northwest Mouse Meet will even join us to update us on the latest news from the Pacific Northwest Mouse Meet including the newly added key note speaker. Time: 1:25:09
    • 04/09/10 – Episode 156, The passing of Eddie Carroll and the tragic accident at Ft. Wilderness make for a somber news segment. Another more uplifting segment has Lisa Battista, author of Beyond the Attractions: A Guide to Walt Disney World with Preschoolers, on to talk about one of the more fun parts of parenting (yes, Jonathan was taking notes). Time: 1:18:17


    • 04/01/60 – Episode 2,986, Grandpa Mike is joined by a very arthritic Rikki, a narcoleptic Debbie, and Pam (who sounds remarkably good for her age) talk about a rather foolish dining plan promo recently "announced" by WDW. The recording after the main show is classic! Time: 13:33
    • 04/01/10 – Episode 216, Today the panel discusses things to consider before ever leaving home for that wonderful Walt Disney World Vacation.  We discuss things to think about if you are either driving or flying to Florida, as well as "Day-before" routines and rituals that we follow.  We even get into a discussion about our preferred footwear for touring the parks (yes, folks, Crocs are allowed in the summer…Crocs in December might not be the best type of footwear, however). Time: 43:51
    • 04/04/10 – Episode 217, We are very excited to have our friend Paula from New Zealand joining us today to talk about her unique trip to Disney Parks.  We talk about how her love of Disney began so far from the United States, her buying into Disney Vacation Club from such a distance, as well as an upcoming trip that will take her on the Disney Cruise Line, Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom Lodge - Kidani Village, and finally Disney's Grand Californian Hotel at Disneyland!  You have to hear this show!  It might change how you see travel to Walt Disney World! Time: 34:38
    • 04/08/10 – Episode 218, Today we discuss ways to take our favorite Counter Service restaurants, Table Service restaurants, and snacks and "plus" the experience, as Walt would call it.  How could you make your favorite dining and snacks even better?  Hear what suggestions we have, and then let us know what you think (I LOVE the idea of a Pirate-themed restaurant in Adventureland). Also, several voice mails from a Northeast BOGP/Henson meet are added at the end). Time: 39:00
    • 04/11/10 – Episode 219, Today we are lucky to have Mike from St. Charles, Missouri join Rikki and I to discuss a last-minute trip that was planned for his family in February, 2010!  You won't believe the way they told the kids! (Mush: we're still trying to come up with a way to tell our boys about our trip…loved the way you did it!) We also discuss Mike's thoughts on making the drive to Walt Disney World, what it was like not being on the Disney Dining Plan for the first time, as well as surprise things the family really enjoyed outside the parks! Time: 38:50
    • 04/15/10 – Episode 220, Today the panel takes our topic from the message boards as we discuss restaurants, both counter and table service, that have surprised us in good and bad ways.  We discuss places like Casey's Corner, Roaring Forks, Sunshine Season, San Angel Inn, and much more (we are so going to try the shrimp at Columbia Harbor House…thanks Debbie! Gotta disagree with the San Angel Inn, though – I think that is more traditional Mexican fare than most realize. Many folks in the U.S. consider Tex-Mex/Southwestern to be authentic, because that's what their local Mexican restaurants serve (the steak chimichangas at our local one is the best I've ever had)…From what I've read, traditional Mexican is not usually super hot/spicy, and, when compared to the Tex-Mex, it may appear to be bland. I read the show-notes on the forums for this one (yes, I lurk there…if you haven't been there, stop reading and sign up now!), and Pam hit the nail on the head in the potential problem being the issue of preparation. We've eaten there once and LOVED it. The same could be said for the Garden Grill for us…many love that place, but our one experience has us to the point where we likely won't go back there for quite a while. Really good show…it made for some good discussion afterward!) Time: 47:30


    • 04/01/10 – Episode 9, (sniff) In this episode, (sniff, sniff), the hosts talk about their (sob) favorite Disney blogs, and (wipes tears) what makes for a good blog (tears streaming down face)…and they……left………………this one……………………out (insert uncontrollable wailing here)!!! In all seriousness, they highlight some absolutely amazing blogs out there…I subscribe to many of the ones they covered in the show to get my fix and can vouch for the popularity/excellence of them. If you're looking for a new Disney read, I'd definitely take the time to listen to this show. Time: 46:07
    • 04/07/10 – Episode 10, Steve Jobs junkies – this show's for you! In this show, Henry, Katie, Nate, Scott, and Jeff talk about the iPad, its uses for Disney, and its applicability for travel. Time: 44:16
    • 04/15/10 – Episode 11, Talk about redundant…this podcast update blog is talking about a podcast that highlights the various Disney podcasts that the hosts listen to. I think the world is about to implode…it's an infinite loop! They also highlight some of the non-Disney ones out there. Time: 1:02:39


    • 04/09/10 – BMS 84, Holy ****!!!! It's the original cast! Bob is back to join Lou for a "catch-up" show. We hear what's been happening and what is coming up for the BMS crew. Bob announces that, while he won't be back on for every episode, he does intend to do the occasional show with Lou. Good intro…we get to see some of the older episode antics. The end has some great head-banging outtakes. Time: 30:51
    • 04/13/10 – IYEE 58, Short show with audio highlights from the 2008 Westfest, including a ride-thru of the Indy attraction at Disneyland. Time: 14:41


    • 04/11/10 – Episode 89, Jeff starts off with news, including the recent bus issues (they get into more upbeat news too). Pluto and Imagine take the monorail station to DHS's Sunset Boulevard. The hosts then discuss what to do and what not to do on your Disney trips and then wrap the show with e-mails. Time: 1:11:34.


    • 04/01/10 – Episode 29, On this week show, I give you my reasons as to why I'm not renewing my D23 membership, plus we start a new segment called iPhone app of the week. Time: 8:10
    • 04/05/10 – Episode 30, Kyle joins us as he discusses why he is renewing his D23 membership; we have a roundtable discussion on what technology we would like to see in the parks, plus we have our first ever contest. Time: 30:50


    • 04/06/10 – Episode 42, After listening to this show, I think Trace is not a major fan of AirTran Airways. Before this, however, all the Dudes fans must join together in solidarity with Wayne to demand that Trace turn in his man card for his Friends knowledge. On to the bashing…chances are that, if you listen to the Disney Dudes, you also listen to Those Darn Cats, which means you likely heard the marathon weekend episode with Lisa driving all around the Orlando area waiting for Trace to arrive. Having followed many of the tweets from that weekend, I knew this was going to be an interesting episode! I feel for Trace with all that happened to him – I do want to take a minute or two to hopefully shed some light on some the goings-on behind the scenes of air travel. I'll put in a disclaimer that I worked for both Frontier and AirTran for a few months, doing the ramp/jetway/operations stuff. Many airlines do have a 10 minute rule so that they can get the paperwork completed and sent to the flight crew for an on-time departure. The paperwork includes a full head-count of passengers, the locations of the passengers, the distribution of the cargo and the people for weight and balance calculations, the amount of fuel loaded, and the final calculations to verify they are within limits for departure. Some airlines may be faster than others (Frontier was always a manual weight/balance calculation with charts) and can do more like a 5 minute rule. The crews usually do everything they can for an on-time departure for several reasons: 1) weather; 2) "air route slots"; 3) gate assignments; and 5) on-time reliability stats. The ground crew has little choice but to take the "out, off, on, in" times that the aircrew gives them, and, if the "out" time (leaving the gate) is past the scheduled time, it's not a good indicator. That's my guess as to why they have the 10-minute rule. If they have already "closed" the flight at ten minutes (the computer starts running the calculations and printing out the documents), they can't open it back up. Now, as for if they should have closed the flight at exactly 10 minutes…yes, the computers know who is checked in and on the plane as well as who is checked in but not onboard yet. I totally agree that it would have been better for them to hold off for another minute or two for a last page attempt over the airport intercom. I also think the service afterwards wasn't something to write home about…unfortunately, that (along with jobs like hotel front desk) is a position where the only feedback from customers is typically negative. It beats you down when you take the fall for something that often is out of your control. It doesn't make it right to give sub-par service…I'm not saying that at all. I'm just saying that I understand the conditions that sometimes lead to it. Common sense unfortunately does lack in the service industry, as you got to witness with clearing you but not your son initially on standby (or the other way around…can't remember). Regardless, it sucked to hear what all you had to go through. Anyways…I've inadvertently taken over the post (sorry!). Be sure to listen to the haunting rendition of a "Willy Wonka" song at the end. Time: 1:02:50


    • 04/12/10 – Halloween Time, Spring cleaning. Everybody's favorite. But for us Disney fans, sometimes the aforementioned organizational activity can result in finding hidden treasures. Case in point...As Electric Mic & Kiltboy rummaged through their haunted attic, they came across the lost Episode 6 from last Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort! Just when the scare had all but worn off, here are all the sights and sounds of Halloween fun at the DLR for you to enjoy. Joined by members of their Park Hoppin Party Posse (The P.H.P.P.), the boys bring you eerie adventures from Haunted Mansion Holiday, Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy, Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, the incredible new Halloween Screams Fireworks Spooktacular, even musical performances by the Dapper Dans and Firehouse Five. Then they foolishly turn the show over to the Kimballs from Duluth for Mickey's Trick or Treat Party. Be afraid. Be VERY afraid. And for the final nail in the coffin of creepy comicality, Electric wrote a fun new song called Spooky Park Hoppin Party. We hope you enjoy our lost treasure! Time: 52:47

    • 04/04/10 – Episode 45, WHAT THE………….!!!!!!!!! We get to hear the top 5 songs from Scott and Tracey that are related to Warner Brothers (and the Warner Sister, at times…sorry – loved that show in the 90s!). We then get a report on the local Six Flags from the duo before Scott turns it over to his best friend, the Mortis, for an update on what's playing at the Cinema…………….WHAT THE…….!!!!!!!!

    • 04/01/10 – Episode 129, Today the podcast team discusses Character Dining at Walt Disney World. Karin is back in the studio with the latest Disney News. Mendy Huffman joins the team for the fourth chair. (Congrats, Mendy…good luck getting the fluff out of the show!!!) Time: 58:41

    • 04/06/10 – Episode 161, Before the crew focuses on Kevin Yee's most recent book, Mousetrap, (I haven't read it, so I can't comment on how it is, but I tend to listen to what the Micecast crew has to say with interest), they take some time to talk about the quickly-ended "Give a Day" promotion. Time: 1:47:58


    • 04/13/10 – "Gus"; We watch another Disney movie starring Don Knotts and Tim Conway from 1976, Gus. Listen to see if we get a 'kick' out of it or not. (Mush: I have NEVER heard of this movie…a donkey that plays football????? Oh, and there must be something with younger kids and the word "Google"…we hear it all the time in our house too). Time: 25:36


    • 04/10/10 – Episode 27, I'm not going to spoil it, but this episode rivals WTTM for the absolute best April Fool's show out there. I made a special trip over to the DPN forums to comment on this show, which revolves around the American Idol Experience. Just do yourself a favor and listen to it…ALL of it. I bow down to Matt's excellence with this one. BTW…how many flipping degrees do you have? Computer science, Law, MBA…??? Time: 41:10 (interesting time...hmmm)

    • 04/07/10 – Episode 5, Frank, Margaret, and a very hoarse Heather (she's a trooper to make the show!) are joined again by Zannaland (Suzannah DiMarzio) for another fun show. In this one, Hidden Mickey guru Steve Barrett joins the Wild Ride to talk about his specialty. Also, Frank introduces a really interesting segment – calling the red phone booths at the U.K. pavilion and talking to unsuspecting guests at Epcot. I NEVER knew those were actual working phones…this segment was AWESOME! Time: 1:16:27


    • 04/09/10 – Episode 159, WOOHOO…Van's got another show out! In the news: virgins are going to Disney World, and some new Disney-inspired kids makeup will be safe (just listen to figure it out). Also in the news, Miley's finished (as might be her career), and Oregon's own Donald. Captain EO is the main topic of the show (I'm still not a fan of EO coming back). The Top 7: THINGS!!! (Just listen to figure it out). Time: 22:30


    • 04/05/10 – Episode 54, (Mush: the first part…all his words!) In what has to be the worst episode he has produced (and one sure to lose any remaining listeners), Gordon sets a PR in the 5K, shares ironing secrets, goes to Wal-Mart (Mush: Sun Chips, Spring Mix Lettuce, and Mushrooms are on the shopping list…oh, and he becomes a fashion critic at Wal-Mart, too!), and gets great Voice Mails. Time: 49:33
    • 04/08/10 – Episode 54 55, It's Gordon's Birthday, and he reflects on what has happened in the past year (most of it really good!). We get to hear a teaser for episode 56 (I swear I had déjà vu for a minute with one of those segment…was there a repeat from the last show?). Time: 1:19:12
    • 04/13/10 – Episode 56, I want you to say "I love crepes!" It's Talladega nights, Gordon-style. Gordon recaps his most recent run - the Talladega half-marathon, (let me just quote the late, great Colonel Sanders… 'I'm too drunk to taste this chicken!'). Also, he announces that he has joined Team AllEars (which means I'll be meeting him in-person in January!). Beware of deergs with big fangs at the end of the show (I'm still laughing at that one!). Time: 1:15:57


    • 04/07/10 – Episode 98, You forgot KISS (hey, everyone else said it, in reference to Episode 94). In this show, the Cats are reveling in more listener feedback! Other comments include wedding music ideas (Oohduhlaalee…and yes I know "King of the Road"…12 songs for only $800…I bet you can get Testa to sing "Wishes" for less), the return of Carlo(s) (no, I don't know the Cupid Shuffle), and even voice mail! Time: 38:33
    • 04/14/10 – Episode 99, First off, yes, Cats, I did make it all the way through the podcast without pausing and rewinding to that certain part several times. In this episode, we join Top 7 Stacy to try to find Kraftland. No, we're not on a mission to find macaroni and cheese. This is a documentary that highlights the Kraft family, with Stacy Aswad (it's a grill AND a cooler???) helping narrate the show. Definitely one to listen to without the kids around. Time: 30:22


    • 04/06/10 – Special episode, Upon hearing the news of Eddie Carroll's passing, Shawn remastered an interview WaltCast did with Mr. Carroll last fall and presents it in this show. Time: 47:07
    • 04/06/10 – Episode 37, Katie and Shawn are joined by a stranger to none in the Disney podcast universe – Tom Corless of the WDWNT. Tom (a season ticket holder for the Yankees…even though I'm a Cubs' fan, I'll let it slide since it's in the American League) helps out with the news and describes how he got into the podcasting realm, the various shows, some of his rants (don't ever mention cheese quesadillas to him), and more. I could sense Katie about to reach through the microphone to throttle Shawn as he and Tom went on a classic TV tangent. One excellent piece of advice from this show: your career goes down the tubes when you're on this podcast (loved that line!!!). A nice audio isolation from the Eddie Carroll interview ends the show. Time: 1:16:26
    • 4/13/10 – Episode 38, Shawn and (bleep) Katie have a shorter show with (bleep) news and upcoming (bleep) events for the podcast. (bleep) Time: 26:34


    • 04/06/10 – Episode 136, The mail bag was overflowing and threatening to burst through the floor, so Tom and company go through a number of e-mails in this show. Time: 1:04:13
    • 04/09/10 – Episode 137, News and Rumors starts off the show, with some info on the Summer Nightastic event (I've got a bad feeling about the fireworks at MK), Extra Noming Hours (still laughing at that one!), and more. After that, we are treated to Round Two of the WDWNT March Madness tournament (top 64 attractions). Time: 1:02:10


    • 04/03/10 – Episode 164, Tim Foster is back on, which means one thing: another Top "Ten" list! In this one, Lou and Tim debate the top attraction ride vehicles (I'm still looking for a picture of Lou and Mom's Panelist Marc Lorenzo crammed into a Dumbo vehicle). As you would expect, this is another fun segment that gets you making up your own list as you listen. Afterwards, Lou has on Robert Croskery from congaloosh.org to talk about prolonging the legacy of the Adventurer's Club (I'm still bummed that I never got to see this). Robert is the primary organizer of Congaloosh 2010…see the web site for more information. Time: 1:26:47
    • 04/12/10 – Episode 165, This week, join us at the dinner table as we sit down to dine at and review Paradiso 37, the high-energy waterfront restaurant located in Downtown Disney's Pleasure Island. We'll review a number of different items from the menu, and discuss the decor, ambiance and overall dining experience to give you a taste of this restaurant which offers cuisine inspired by the Street Foods of the Americas. (Mush: Those joining Lou (live!) are Glenn Whelan, Scott Otis, John Leuzzi, Ryan Wilson. Try the Skirt Steak!) Time: 1:01:41
    • 04/14/10 – Video Extra, Lou meets up with Kingdom Keepers Author Ridley Pearson in Norway to talk about the newly-released book of the Kingdom Keeper series. This one is titled: Disney in Shadow. Ridley gives us some great teasers for the plot of this book. It is so cool that he did a little reading from the new book (some video of this is at the end). Lou, when you have a video release in the feed, it becomes a family event…another great job! Time: 10:00


    • 04/02/10 – Episode 702, At the request of Scopa, the crew tackles a subject that isn't an easy one to talk about but is on the minds of many. After a string of unfortunate incidents on Disney World property (from the monorail accident in July of 2009 to the Indy stuntman losing his life…from the tragedy of the boy losing his life at Ft. Wilderness to the string of bus and boat mishaps), the hosts examine the safety record of Disney World. Time: 24:13
    • 04/04/10 – Audio extra…TENTFEST Live show. Join the crew for "camping" with "tents" during the Princess half-marathon weekend. Marvin even shows up for the fun! Being an economist, I was pained to hear that y'all broke the concept of comparative advantage by having someone who has no love for s'mores actually making the s'mores (though the usage of Peeps was a nice touch). Probably the funniest part has to be when Newell's wife, Mary (she was listening to the live show…FYI: she's a teacher), calls in to tell them that he can't add! One of these days, I've got to get down for one of these meet-ups! Time: 1:14:26
    • 04/06/10 – Episode 703, Tentfest recap. If you thought the Tentfest live show was good, wait 'til you hear this one! We hear that the Touringplans guys who were staying there (Henry and Fred) outright CHEATED by leaving their tent at 4 am so they could check in to Port Orleans (oh, the things they do for research), and Testa didn't even put his own tent up! We hear of odd sounds from those "roughing it" (Newell's heater kicking on all throughout the night. There are just too many one-liners to comment on here. Ugh (translation: It's too @#$^$!** cold to say "good morning"). Time: 20:03
    • 04/08/10 – Episode 704, Matt, Mike, Mike, Len, and Annette tackle a multitude of listener questions, including how to pop the question, tipping the mousekeeping, the fate of the 20K under the sea subs, Len's deep pockets (in the name of research), and more. Time: 31:00
    • 04/09/10 – Episode 705, Mattycakes, Tonto (aka My Little Princess), Scop-rates, and MouseworldMike are joined by AJ Wolfe (she's the guest, so I'm not going to give her a nickname…yet) from the Disney Food Blog to talk about a really interesting topic – does excellent theming make a restaurant good despite average/subpar food? As expected, this one led to quite a few comments on the episode discussion, though none of the comments revolved around the Korean Barbeque at the Axis of Evil restaurant located at the Seas with Nemo and Friends. Time: 24:03
    • 04/13/10 – Episode 706, It's a live show recapping the Mousefan Challenge that occurred during the Tentfest weekend. We get to hear of some of the antics that went on and find out which team won the most money for charity (Mousefantravel donated the money to go to the charities). By the way, if you're on Facebook, they had a caption contest from this event, and the pics (and the captions) are located here. Time: 15:44
    • 04/15/10 – Episode 707, Listener questions. Matt and the Mikes are on this one…a really good discussion ensues on this show pertaining to a follow-up from Episode 704 on tipping the housekeeping at the WDW resorts. Time: 33:13


    • 04/11/10 – Episode 40, In this episode Matt and Nate introduce a new series to WEDway Radio, Walt Disney and the 1964 World's Fair.  In this particular series we will go in depth on the four different attractions that Walt Disney was most responsible for at The Fair.  In this particular episode we discuss Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln and tell the story of the attractions development as well as the different incarnations that the attraction went through. In the news this week we discuss the new concept art for the new Italian pizzeria at the Italy pavilion in World Showcase and the art for the redesigned and rebuilt new San Angel Cantina in the Mexico pavilion as well. (Mush: yet another fact-filled show…good episode, guys!) Time: 54:16


    • 04/04/10 – Episode 234, Paul has stepped out for a bit to help Tairy recover from her surgery. Jeff Roney controls the microphone for this show. We get a smorgasbord of audio (including some good comedy…chicken roasting and chafed thighs???!!!). Halfway through the show, however, Tony Rigatoni makes a surprise appearance (locking Jeff out of the studio) and starts spinning the tunes himself. Jeff returns for the end of the show and gets in a few more tracks in (including from La Nouba, Star Tours, and more). Time: 1:00:20


    • 04/05/10 – Episode 51, ZADDP gears up for its biggest countdown yet -- so big, it takes four episodes to do it! The doors are open to the whole wide world of Disneydom, with nearly a century of songs in competition for the top spot. There are 25 songs in each episode, plus some discussion about every single one of them. We kick things off this week with #100. (Mush: LOVING the countdown, Aaron! Definitely some surprises in this one…some songs that I thought might be higher, though I'll keep listening to hear the higher songs and the reasoning. I'll have to disagree with which version of "Reflections" was better, however (it probably doesn't help that I'm not a Christina Aguilera fan, though) – still, I think the song is supposed to be more tender, where a quieter voice benefits the presentation of the lyrics. Mulan is reflecting on herself, trying to figure out who she actually is and who she is supposed to be. It's the vulnerability of the song that makes it so powerful, IMHO. Also, is it bad that I've never seen the Gummy Bears or Ducktales?) Time: 1:30:50
    • 04/12/10 – Episode 52, ZADDP's countdown of the Top 100 Disney Songs continues with a second set of 25! We start at #75 this time and move all the way down to #51, covering some really amazing songs along the way. Each one is, of course, treated to a little analysis. Time: 1:37:31

Disney Podcast Updates, Jan 8-15, 2010

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD AFTERNOOON!!!!! Some really interesting topics are in this installment of updates, as you will see below...28 shows are included! Remember, if you are interested in listening to any of these episodes, I have links to subscribe for most of these shows in my post HERE. Also, if you're willing, you can help these shows out by posting a review over on iTunes. The more they get, the higher up they appear on searches. If you do start listening to a podcast as a result of what you've seen on here, please let the podcasters know where you found them!


As always, please note that this again is not a comprehensive list of the Disney Podcasts that are out there. Mike Hamilton has created Disneypodcastdirectory.net, which he periodically updates with new podcasts and removes dead casts. He also has the automated RSS (historical) feeds of the podcasts. This is more of a cross-section of what is currently being talked about…perhaps something may sound interesting, and you'll subscribe to listen to that topic.


Any and all comments are welcomed! Also, if you know of another podcast that fits here, let me know.



    • 01/08/10 – Episode 143, Jonathon is taking the show off…give him a break…he's got an infant at home! After some news and a bunch of AllAboutTheMouseketeer Roll Call additions, Bryan brings on Tony Caggiano to talk about WDW's flagship resort: the Grand Floridian. Tony got married there and has a lot of good information about this place. Afterwards, Bryan reads a review of touringplan's new Lines app. Time: 1:30:45
    • 01/15/10 – Episode 144, This show is in a little different format as it was recorded during Marathon weekend. Bryan starts out with a little review of Space Mountain, followed by an actual ride-thru of Buzz, complete with a little commentary on some of the higher point-value targets. After that, we follow him through the hub and into other parts of the park, with audio from the Haunted Mansion, Jim the pianist from Casey's Corner (along with an amazing version of Feed the Birds, which is one of my favorite songs from a Disney Movie…it was a favorite long before I knew it was Walt's favorite song.) After a little Broke Hoedown interlude, we have a little parade audio from Move it, Shake it. Then we have some audio from the Team Voice Aloha Isle meet (the wusses didn't even get a Dole Whip…so what if it was 35 degrees!). The show wraps with a little Jungle Cruisin'. Time: 1:26:46
    • 01/10/10 – Episode 193, You're at Disney World in the off-season, and everything's closed. What do you do??? Mike and Rikki discuss options of staying active when the parks close early. Time: 32:51
    • 01/14/10 – Episode 194, The whole panel is back for this interesting debate: several short trips to WDW or one long trip?? I thought about this one a lot, and I think that the economist in me would say the long trip (pay only once for the flight and spread out that cost over several days…more cost-efficient). The fan in me, however, might have to say the short trips…we had an absolute blast going down 3 times in one year back in 2007 (check out the Trip Reports here on the blog…I'm still posting the last trip in '07 at the time of this update). What do you think…short or long? Time: 31:18
    • 01/15/10 – BMS 80, it's their last day of their trip…great video of Kidani and a ride on Dumbo. They get back home, and, instead of the bummed out feeling that we all feel after provides some footage from his solo trip in December. Included is some DHS footage from the Great Movie Nap (as I call it), Muppetvision with some DPNers, Sanaa bar with DPNers, Christmas decorations, and more! Time: 23:27
    • 01/9/10 – Episode 94, these shows are over 2 hours long, but they pack a lot of info in them! They have the standard news/events segments, which is about 40 minutes long. Then they get into the new pin releases, which tacks on another fifteen minutes. The DPI takes a look (appropriately, since this was released around marathon weekend) at 2005 marathon pins. Tom then showcases the newly-released Hidden Mickey Pin report (ALL of them for 2010). IPLS # 73 is showcased, and that lucky person is Brian Hargrove from Queen Creek, AZ. Time: 2:25:01
    • 01/15/10 – Episode 95, John's going solo in this show as Tom is down at WDW. News, events, and releases start off the show, and then he gets in to a "John's Ten" segment, where he looks at a group of pins (or more…ten per segment, though) and the topic is part of the "Wanna trade" series. IPLS #74 is unknown. I went to Facebook to check and had ????????? as the entry. Time: 1:24:14
    • 01/10/10 – Episode 39…FINALLY I can listen to this one all the way through again. I've missed it! The show starts off with Jessica tries taking over Scott. As Scott is freed, he delivers one of the best lines ever: Don't EVER do that again….without my permission. The show revolves around the early history of Pixar. For those who haven't listened to this podcast yet, you're missing out on the opportunity to gather some amazingly detailed background information that these two always give in their shows. It's pretty much a given that you'll learn something from every episode on here. Buzzy's musical interlude is, as expected, a lot of background music from the Pixar movies…my sons and I had a lot of fun guessing where in the movies you can hear that music. At the Mortis Matinee, you can subject your enemies to torture by forcing them to sit and watch the next release in the Disney series of attraction-based movies: It's a Small World (2 hours' worth)!!! I've got one question for Scott, though: What's wrong with being a John Denver fan??!!!! Time: 1:07:53
    • 01/12/10 – Episode 189, It's the Tuesday night live chat show! Enjoy Olivia Newton-John music as the hosts talk about all sorts of Disney-related stuff (DCL, Tiki room tributes, refurbs, Facebook friends (family?), tailgating in the parking lots before entering the parks, and tons more. Time: 1:40:08
    • 01/10/10 – Episode 249. Are you cold? After the news and the tip, Ricky talks weather! With the recent cold spell in Orlando, Ricky devotes a little time to give listener feedback about what to do with the cold. Some suggestions included the fireplace at AKL and at WL, one suggestion to eat a Dole Whip (makes it feel not as cold), drinking around the world (They need to add a Switzerland pavilion so they can have Saint Bernards roaming the World Showcase pavilion with brandy to give to the guests who are freezing), soup, going through Hell on Mr. Toad at Disneyland, warming to the scene of Rome burning on SSE, repeatedly riding Test Track and hoping on getting stuck in the heat room, and more! Time: 59:04
    • 01/15/10 – Ummmm…I spent a while trying to come up with the best word to describe this episode. The best I could come up with was: snotcicles! Mikey and his sister present the Top Seven Dumbest Rides to Ride on When it's Cold at Disney World. The coldest? The tram back to the car! The video of them on BTMRR was awesome, as you can almost see them go through the various stages of hypothermia on the attraction. Time: 10:01
    • 01/11/10 – The title says "Can We Give a Day?". Well, they do talk about the new Disney parks promotion for 2010…for a little bit. In true Micecast fashion, they let the conversation go all over the place, starting with some e-mail feedback, their views on the "Give a Day, Get a Disney Day" promotion (Mush…it's early…my guess is that everyone snapped up the opportunities early on to make sure they get their tickets. I'm betting that, as we get farther away from the beginning of the year, a lot more opportunities will be available for people to volunteer). They then get into a discussion on the architecture of Disneyland and how the imagineers will add some new attractions with the architecture. Time: 1:54:01
    • 01/9/10 – Episode 20,000…in this review, the Mortis family watches 2,000 Zombies Under the Sea (Under the Sea!...in my best Sebastian voice). Okay…it's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea…one that I shamefully admit having not seen yet. Scott and Tracey give a lot of really good background information on the movie, including a link to Max Fleischer, contracting out with other studios (20th Century Fox, Universal, etc.) for space issues, and more. The result of the viewing: the adults really liked it, and the kids thought it was boring…probably the same result we'd have it we conducted the same experiment. Time: 31:50
    • 01/8/10 – Episode 20, Beer, beer, beer, beer…beer, beer, beer, beer…We sit in with Matt and Earl from Trapped on Vacation at the Rose and Crown Pub, where we get to listen to Carol the Hat Lady tickle the ivories. I learned a couple of things in this show: 1) it seems that most of the CMs go to Rose and Crown after (or before) work; and 2) there's a new way to sing the "Do…a deer" song from the Sound of Music (Do…with which I buy my beer…Ray…the guy I buy beer from…). Interesting show art, too, I must say! Also, Mouse Droppings receives the award for most obscure Erik Estrada reference in a podcast (still laughing). La…..lalalalalala! Oh, and do yourself a favor and stick around for the extra audio at the end. OMG that "Real Men of Genius" was awesome!!! Time: 26:49
    • 01/9/10 – Episode 233, Eric and Cathy are gone, leaving Dan at the helm for this show. He provides us with some interesting audio from BBCs Ain't No Mickey Mouse Music. Time: 57:34
    • 01/11/10 – Episode 379, on this shorts show, the tip of the week deals with how to stay warm on the busses – a rather timely tip, considering the weather that central Florida recently had. Also, they take a look at the Country Bear Jamboree, which was one of the last things that Walt himself was a big part of. Following that is the review system spotlight…in the light this week is the House of Blues at DTD. The Kid is asked about attractions that he does now that he didn't do when he was younger. In listener feedback they get into a discussion about the "5-D" experience of Captain EO (thanks to exchanges with DisneyDean on Twitter). They couldn't quite figure out what the 5th 'D' was…it has to be Max, of course (the union sent him…Debbie was sick). Time: 52:44
    • 01/13/10 – Episode 380, Steven Ng does it again with another great interview…this time he brings on Eddie Carroll, who talks about his one-man show about Jack Benny as well as some of the intricacies of being Jiminy Cricket. They wrap the show with feedback on the most recent Twitter/Facebook feedback poll. Time: 34:08
    • 01/15/10 – Episode 157, when I saw that this one was a vidcast, I couldn't wait to watch it (I'm still laughing from his convention crashing video at the Swolphin). In this show, Van brings you a visual Top 7 differences between WDW and Disneyland. The Autopia entry is classic (the question on everyone's mind is: did she actually call him?). Time: 7:01
    • 01/14/09 – Episode 44, In this show about nothing (nice Seinfeld reference), he gives an update to his training progress that has been hampered by his recent injury to his tibialis anterior (the thing in front of your lower leg that you use to move your feet up and down…something that obviously has to hurt when you walk, let alone run!). Intertwined between that and a shout out to all the runners competing in Orlando, he also discusses Seinfeld and old e-mails. As I listened, I realized that his family and my family must come from the area, because he talks about following his "internet friends" as they participate in the various running events at WDW during marathon weekend. The reason I bring this up is because he sounded exactly like me when I was talking to my wife about who she called my "imaginary friends" (Russian brides and internet stalkers) over on Lodgeboards. Yes, she met about 70 of them a couple of years ago at a meet down in Epcot, but that story is likely all too familiar to a bunch of us. We also learn that Gordon may just appear on an upcoming America's Most Wanted show for the ATM vandalism he did as a grad student. By the way…Gordon, can I borrow your wife so she can help me finish my dissertation? Time: 56:21
    • Jennifer and the kid (I've given up on trying to spell all different variations of "Whatyamacallit")(and, no, it's different from the kid on MouseStation) give their review of The Princess and the Frog, with some insight that you typically wouldn't hear from someone the age of the Whachyamacalit. They delved deeper into the storyline than most would, and they hit on some really interesting points. Oh, about 15 minutes in, they give some good trivia fodder for you to amaze your fellow Disney Freak friends about 15 minutes in (and I'm with him on being bitter about 4 For a Dollar). Before they get to a little ride-thru audio of Toy Story Midway Mania, the cats treat you to some vintage audio of an POTC ad for Disneyland. Time: 27:45
    • 01/12/10 – Episode 25, on this silver show, we find out that Katie's quality is really off (how's that foot tasting, Shawn?). On this show, Katie's fighting her microphone as she and Shawn talk with Len Testa about how he nearly got knocked unconscious while shaving his legs at the Treehouse villas. Don't believe me? Listen and find out! (how's that for a teaser?). Len talks about some of the researching that he has done for the Unofficial Guide. Time: 47:38
    • 01/11/10 – Episode 126, The WDWNT crew starts off the show with some really interesting rumors on potential upcoming refurbs at WDW. The Cantina de San Angel and the possible reasons for multiple DHS attractions going down at the same time will definitely pique your interest. Will Pixar Place be expanding? Time: 49:09
    • 01/10/10 – Episode 153, On today's show…FREE KIDS!!!! Wait, that didn't come out right. This week, Lou is joined by Chuck Lionberger to talk about free things to do with kids at Epcot, notoriously known as the least kid-friendly parks. They spend the majority of time talking about the Kidcot Fun Stops…some really good information for those with kids. Yes, I was taking notes for our upcoming June trip. Time: 1:10:21
    • 01/8/10 – Episode 666, No, they don't devote the entire show to the worship of Chernabog to honor their 666th episode. In this show, they bring on Greg Maletic to talk about his new iPhone app to add even more adventure to the theme park experience. Wishing Stars is the name, and it sounds really interesting, for both first-time visitors and for the seasoned veterans. Note: You may want to check out his blog to see what his alter ego has done for Disney…he's a reknown artist and has done a number of items for the Disney parks. Time: 21:58
    • 01/11/10 – Episode 667, LIVE FROM NASSAU…IT'S WDW TODAY!!! (and it's much better than Saturday Night Live). Recorded during the cruise portion of the Reunion event, we get to hear some of the ins and outs of cruising, Disney-style. Be forewarned, though…you'll likely be busting out laughing on several occasions, and you'll never look at stones the same way again. After hearing this show, I now have two additional tasks: 1) I need to get my wife to listen to this episode as she's really leery about a cruise; and 2) I need to find a way to get Fred Block on the same cruise they we will be on (once I drug my wife and sneak her on the ship). Time: 47:26
    • 01/13/10 – Episode 668, Listener questions is the name of the game in this show. Time: 29:21
    • 01/15/10 – Episode 669, Newell takes the lead in this show with his report on a new experience for him: taking the autotrain down to Florida. If you're interested in taking this down to Florida, you might want to listen to this show as the review was fairly positive (whouldathunk Amtrak made a good steak?!). Time: 17:30
    • 01/10/10 – Episode 221, I've always known that Paul was a prankster, but this one was soooo subtle that I take my hat off to him for getting me on his most recent one. You see, in episode 220, he said he had audio from Disneyland. When I listened to it, I thought something didn't seem right, especially with the Tiki Birds audio (I was expecting the original), but I cast my doubts aside and attributed it to me just not paying enough attention to the beginning of the show. Nope…Paul punked us with Disney WORLD audio. Congrats to those who caught that and called him on it (he did receive a number of e-mails). ANYWAYS…on this show, it's the real Disneyland audio. Time: 1:01:43

Disney Podcast Updates, October 30-November 15

Well, this has been delayed well over a month. I won't bore you with the details; however, it does involve the end of the semester as a faculty member, Thanksgiving, and two separate trips to the emergency room with our sons (they're going to be okay). Much like October, what you'll see here is mostly updates from the show descriptions. I was so far behind that I realized that I'd never get caught up if I listened to each one and wrote my own recap for every show (which I much prefer...I like giving the personal touches to the comments).


I still hope one day to get this back to a weekly update, and I hope that some new equipment after the holidays will help. If all goes well, I hope to get a 16G Nano that allows for voice memo recordings. This way, I'll have space to actually download all the shows instead of constantly shuffling to get stuff to fit, and I'll be able to do the memos for each podcast as I listen to them (instead of trying to remember what was on each show).


There are a couple more shows that I'm thinking of adding, but I just don't have the time at the moment to do it. In time, I'll get to them, but it may take a month.


If you are interested in listening to any of these episodes, I have links to subscribe for most of these shows in my post HERE. Also, if you're willing, you can help these shows out by posting a review over on iTunes. The more they get, the higher up they appear on searches.


As always, please note that this again is not a comprehensive list of the Disney Podcasts that are out there. Mike Hamilton has created Disneypodcastdirectory.net, which he periodically updates with new podcasts and removes dead casts. He also has the automated RSS (historical) feeds of the podcasts. This is more of a cross-section of what is currently being talked about…perhaps something may sound interesting, and you'll subscribe to listen to that topic.

We spend time talking about making Advanced Dining Reservations, touring the parks, meeting the needs of everyone in the group, and much more! Thank you for listening to today's podcast! Time: 32:54

    • 10/29/09 – Episode 2 of Season 2, In this episode of the Mouse Lounge, celebrate 70 years with the one that started it all, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. From the Walt Disney Family Museum: In a darkened theater filled to overflowing at the D23 Expo, I had the honor of sitting in the presence of true Disney legends and experts. Producer, Don Hahn moderates a panel discussion about Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. In attendance were animator, Andreas Deja, who invoked life into Scar in the Lion King, and Gaston in Beauty and the Beast, Eric Goldberg, responsible for animating the Genie in Aladdin, and directing the jaw dropping Rhapsody in Blue and hilarious Flamingo with a Yo Yo sequences in Fantasia 2000, Disney historian and author, J.B. Kaufman, animation historian and prolific writer, Charles Solomon, and special guest, looking dazzling at 90 years young, Marge Gower Champion, the live action model for Snow White. Each week, in From the Vault we sample a clip from a classic Disney film, short, television or radio program, or Disneyland Record. This week we serve up a triple feature. At the beginning of 1938, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was taking America by storm. By using the radio medium, Walt was able to stoke the fire of his marketing machine promoting Snow White; while at the same time, entertaining a national audience. On January 2nd 1938, a radio episode of The Mickey Mouse Theater hit the airwaves, coupling elements from the picture with other famous Disney characters. Pay particular attention as Walt himself effortlessly goes from his natural speaking voice into character as Mickey. Next, scoop up slices of film from the cutting room floor and wonder, what if? Have a listen right here to the marvelous but deleted soup sequence from Snow White. Each week we present a high definition ride-through from a Disney Park East or a Disney Park West. This week, enjoy a one of a kind compare and contrast as you hear back to back versions of Snow Whites Scary Adventures, first in on the west coast in Disneyland then in Walt Disney Worlds Magic Kingdom. There are striking differences between the two. Which do you like better? We close the show with unique takes from the soundtrack. First from the newly remastered original soundtrack, the infectious Silly Song; then Satchmo Armstrong teaches you how to Whistle While You Work, and finishing with Ashley Tisdale's turn at Some Day My Prince Will Come. Time: 2:00:11
    • 11/7/09, Call or text with your comments!!! New number -> (805) 270-5785 In this episode of the Mouse Lounge, we take an adventure in Melody and to the mythic land of Agrabah! From the Walt Disney Family Museum: Peek into the process of one of Americas Modern Masters of Melody, Alan Menkin. Each week, in From the Vault we sample a clip from a classic Disney film, short, television or radio program, or Disneyland Record. This week we unearth RCA Victors VY-4000. On four Little Nipper Storybook 78s on 1952 Adventures in Music: Melody. This entire segment, as well as images from the album will be available in the Multimedia area of Mouselounge.com. Each week we present a high definition ride-through from a Disney Park East or a Disney Park West. This week, Don your Dishdasha and duck into DCA for a trip to mythic Agrabah! This is a very recent recording of Aladdin: A Musical Spectacular and the pop culture references are fast and furious. Also pay close attention to how the Genie makes short work of a heckler in the audience. Take issue with the Genie at your peril! We close the show with a trip across the esplanade into Disneyland for the Disneyland Band Noon Concert themed to a trip into the movies. Enjoy! (Mush's Note…I got to see Aladdin a couple of years ago and was amazed at the improv abilities of the actor portraying the Genie…the one in this clip absolutely blows away what I thought was great. Awesome Clip!). Time: 2:23:24

Disney Podcast Updates, October 1-AAAAAAAA

Over 100 updates!!!


Okay, I cheated…I had to.


What you'll see here is mostly updates from the show descriptions. I was so far behind that I realized that I'd never get caught up if I listened to each one and wrote my own recap for every show. The logjam of shows was making it nearly impossible to get them on the iPod (I had over 36 hours of new material on iTunes). While I may have to do this again on occasion during the school year, I hope that this will catch me up to the point where I won't have to. I just about decided to just put the updates on hiatus, but doing this took relatively little time (no, I didn't listen to all of the shows…I probably got to less than 50% of them if I had to be honest). I added Mouse Magic HD to the master list (that was the new one that nobody found) as well as a couple of feeds to the WTTM entry (the HD vidcast feed and Patrick Hurd's personal feed for WTTM).


If you are interested in listening to any of these episodes, I have links to subscribe for most of these shows in my post HERE. Also, if you're willing, you can help these shows out by posting a review over on iTunes. The more they get, the higher up they appear on searches.


As always, please note that this again is not a comprehensive list of the Disney Podcasts that are out there. Mike Hamilton has created Disneypodcastdirectory.net, which he periodically updates with new podcasts and removes dead casts. He also has the automated RSS (historical) feeds of the podcasts. This is more of a cross-section of what is currently being talked about…perhaps something may sound interesting, and you'll subscribe to listen to that topic.


Any and all comments are welcomed! Also, if you know of another podcast that fits here, let me know.



    • 9/25/09 – Episode 129…Actually for the week of 10/04/09.

    • 10/12/09 – Episode 97, Join myself and Superdry as we make our way through the streets of Hong Kong and onto the metro system headed to Sunny Bay Station which connects to the Hong Kong Disneyland line. The one and only stop, of course, is Hong Kong Disneyland. Afterwards, I make my exciting steps onto property thus marking the end to my Disney Park World Tour. Looking back, I visited all 11 of the Disney Parks across the world in under a year's time. Here is a rundown of that busy year of travel: May 08 - Disneyland (2 parks); July 08 - Tokyo Disney (2 Parks); Sept 08 - WDW (4 Parks); Oct 08 - Disneyland Paris (2 Parks); Dec 08 – WDW; Jan 09 – WDW; April 09 - Tokyo; Disney / *Hong Kong Disneyland* So there you have it. All Disney parks on Earth in less than 12 months. It's far from an impossible feat but, dare I say, a dream come true for a Disney park fan *cough* dork. Hong Kong Disneyland is a small park which most would consider a "half day" park attraction wise. What it lacks in the realm of attractions, it makes things up with some of the most beautifully landscaped grounds and surroundings. The spit and polish witnessed at the park itself is just as impressive as the Tokyo Disney Resort. However, the "newness" of this park mixed with the culture leaves things feeling a little sterile, empty, and there is much room (literally) for improvement. During this podcast you will experience most of the park's attractions with us, STORIES ABOUT HOOKERS, an edited portion of their daytime parade called Disney on Parade, and various other Meanderings. It's most interesting to spend an entire day Meandering with us at this somewhat odd Disney Park. It was an interesting experience which left a handful of things to be desired. Overall, I do have high hopes for this Disney destination in the future. It's a promising Disney park located in one of the most amazing destinations in the East. Got ya wondering about the hookers, don't I? LOL Time: 2:04:51

I was listening to the episode in my car with an FM transmitter, and, occasionally, I'll get someone in a car nearby on the same frequency. Well, it happened while I was listening to this episode. I start getting Taylor Swift on my speakers, and the girl in the car right next to me starts getting the feed from this show, just as y'all start talking about Gay Days at WDW. I looked over at her (high school girl) when I figured out what car it was, and the look on her face was absolutely priceless as she started listening to the show – sort of a combined horror, interest, and hilarity. I was hoping she'd look around and try to find what vehicle was broadcasting…I was just going to wink and blow a kiss). Time: 46:03

And while there are many references to him throughout Walt Disney World, many people unfortunately overlook an attraction that is much more than an interactive museum, as Walt Disney: One Man's Dream is a tribute to the man who started it all, and an inspiration to future innovators.

This week, we offer a live review from inside the restaurant as we enjoy some of the Inn's appetizers, main courses, and of course, desserts, as our serve explains every aspect of the meal, and the culture to us along the way.
