Carousel of Progress - A Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow

We dive into the history and legacy of Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress, the upcoming overhaul that replaces every scene (and adds a Walt animatronic), and the tension between preserving Walt’s connection and modernizing the show. We also discuss our upcoming True Life Adventure when we'll be doing a one-day trip to Disney World to ride the new Smuggler's Run and Rock 'n' Roller Coaster, say goodbye to the current version of Carousel of Progress, and eat at Spice Road Table. Let us know what else we should try to cram into our way too brief trip!

Summer at Disney - Heat, New Experiences, and a Dating App?!

We dive into all of those as we discuss how to beat the heat and more new experiences coming this summer. From Bluey to Grogu, Jess to Olaf, and everything in between we preview what's coming and give some of our early thoughts and opinions.

This is the audio from our most recent After Hours Social Livestream. We do these about once a month on Facebook and YouTube. It’s a more open ended relaxed discussion and we answer your questions in real time! Make sure to check our socials so you’ll be able to hang out with us next time! This time we talk about upcoming ride re-openings, favorite resorts and Disney Springs restaurants, our best character meal picks, and what we do to beat the heat during the summer.

A New Buzz, Flower and Garden Strikes Back, and The Return of Big Thunder

We discuss our recent trip down to Disney World where we rode the new versions of Big Thunder Mountain and Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, tried almost everything at Epcot's International Flower and Garden Festival, and experienced the madness that was May 4th at Hollywood Studios. We recap our experiences, give our opinions, and forget what promises we have made mid episode. Let us know what your favorite items have been at this year's festival, and if you've ridden the updated versions of Big Thunder, Buzz, Frozen, and Ratatouille what did you think of them?

Frankly Speaking
