Disney does a lot of things well, but the sounds might be the most underrated and memorable part of the whole operation.

This week, Stef and I go through some of our favorite sounds from around Disney property: rides, transportation, park atmosphere, nighttime shows, and whatever it is about a Disney resort room that makes it feel like you're watching The Weather Channel at 2am.

We also talk over some Disney news and blues.

We didn't get to everything, and we already know you're going to scoff at what we missed. Go ahead. Tell us what we forgot.

Thank you for listening!

This is the part of World Showcase that everyone else seems to lose their minds over. We are not everyone else.

This week, we wrap up World Showcase with Norway and Mexico. A stretch beloved by people who could live on margaritas and chips and salsa, which, relative to most of the people who love this area, we cannot. We talk through why one of us is apparently very moved by the ride experience of going in reverse and why this area also has—without a doubt—one of the worst rides in all of Walt Disney World.

We also get through some Disney news and another round of Lightning Lane questions.

See you at the margarita stand. We'll be somewhere else.

Thank you for listening!

Not every Lightning Lane is created equal. Some of them are just a slightly faster way to be disappointed.

This week, we go through our worst Lightning Lane picks across Individual, Tier 1, and Tier 2. We talk about why one of Magic Kingdom's most recognizable rides probably isn't even worth burning a pick on, and a once-must-do that has disappointingly slid into the "...eh" category.

We also hit some Disney news, learn what "May-cember" is and spend some time thinking through what summer traffic patterns and wait times are going to look like now that parts of Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios are getting back to normal.

Spoiler: probably long. The answer is probably long.

Italy, Germany, and China have a lot going for them, if you love food and hate rides. If you're not stopping to eat, you're likely missing the majority of the experience in this stretch of World Showcase, unless you like looking at tiny train engines and more caramel than you've seen in your entire life.

Stef and I talk through all the highlights and lowlights of these three pavilions and educate ourselves on the differences between custard, ice cream, gelato, and sorbet...which took way longer than it should have. You're welcome.

Along the way, we dive into some Disney news, answer some Lightning Lane questions that will likely make you hate one of us, and remind you all the reasons we shouldn't record at 11:30pm!

Thank you for listening!

Lightning Lanes are those things that sound simple until you're under the gun at 7am, a week before your park day, making decisions you're not caffeinated enough to make.

This week, Stef and I trade picks for our best Lightning Lane selections across Single Pass, Tier 1, and Tier 2. We mostly agree on the obvious stuff, but we've got some curveballs in there based on how the parks have been running lately. We also cover another round of Disney news and spend a little time talking about how Stef would improve ride testing in the parks to make it more "fun."

Strap in. We did the homework so you can pretend you did.

Thank you for listening!

Most people treat this stretch of World Showcase like a moving walkway between rides. Morocco, Japan, and the American Adventure stand by while everyone power-walks past to get to their next Lightning Lane.

We were those people. Turns out, we were wrong. This week, Stef and I finally slowed down long enough to actually explore and shed some light on this overlooked area. We also fire off a batch of Lightning Lane questions and hit some Disney news.

Skippable? If you like being wrong about things.

Disney magic is great and all, but sometimes you just need 20 minutes to complain about a meal that cost $80 and tasted like it was assembled by someone who fried their taste buds from eating too many Sour Patch Kids.

This week, Stef and I are each dragging three dining locations that had absolutely no business operating inside the most magical place on earth. Bad food, bad service, bad atmosphere. We cover all of it, mostly because we sat through it so you don't have to. We also squeeze in some Disney news, and take you down the exciting life of middle-aged midwesterners.

Listen before you eat. Trust us.

Thank you for listening!

This week, we travel the correct way around World Showcase and head into the best part: Canada, England, and France. Three pavilions that set the standard for the rest.

There’s only one attraction and it recently got a pretty big downgrade, which we have thoughts about. But the snacks, the shops, and the restaurants more than make up for it. If you’re looking for the part of EPCOT where it actually feels good to slow down and eat something good, this is probably where you end up.

We also cover Disney news and run through another round of Lightning Lane questions.
