    Walt Disney World Restaurants - Experience or Food Quality - Greater than, Less than, or Equal to? - BOGP 2481

    Mike, Scott, and Rikki are back today to have some fun with the Walt Disney World restaurants! We get this show topic from the BOGP Clubhouse as we were wondering what really drives guests to book the ADRs that they do. Are you looking more for the overall theme/experience of the restaurant or is it the food quality that is the most important factor? Today, we throw out various Walt Disney World restaurants and discuss if the experience is greater than, less than, or equal to the food quality! Play right along with us!

Information but at a cost

This show provides good information about all things Disney, however, it comes at a cost to your ears. No pun intended Pam and Ricki have such irritating voices and verbal ticks it makes the show virtually unlistenable. I had enjoyed this show several years ago and left due to those issues, I recently tried to listen again and their skill as podcasters did not improve. Starting every other sentence with the word “so” or “umm” is not how to get things done. Mike is full of enthusiasm. I don’t know how there’s this many episodes with this high of ratings, but it’s not that good of a show. There are many that are equal to if not better than this one.

It’s truly a community of listeners

I’ve been listening to this podcast since 2017 and it’s amazing when I’m listening to the Sunday call in show and recognize the voices of callers because they call in and share their experiences so often. Also, I love the ornament exchange and Christmas card exchange. When I get that card in the mail from Scott and Rikki I really feel part of the crew.
