Perfect for Disney enthusiasts

This podcast is well researched and well written. It’s a meaty, deep dive into topics of interest for us Disney fans. Love it!

Mr Todd James Pierce - what about crews in the strike?

I like the podcast.

Give the crews and the below the line workers credit on the strike, please. IATSE crew members and teamsters are suffering the most with this strike. Your latest episode doesn’t include them along with writers, actors and studios as being affected.

Try again. These people build the worlds the public wants to see.

Deep dive origin stories and biographies

I love the deep-dive stories presented about how Disney attractions were developed. The detailed biographies of key creators of Disney rides and more are fascinating and well-researched. This podcast isn’t just a casual conversation, it’s like reading a deeply researched—and entertaining—book! The information presented here is very high quality.
