    The Pages Court: Disneyland Vs WDW: Tomorrowland Showdown- EP.133

    The first episode of The Pages Court is now in session! Join Danny and CJ as they debate which US park boasts the best Tomorrowland. Danny defends Disneyland while CJ represents Walt Disney World. From opening statements, to food and beverage, to closing statements, things play out in a new style here on Parks and Pages! Which of the lands is more your style? Which one wins the debate? Let us know on social media or in Mail Call! On the topic of Mail Call, Andrew from Vegas pits the two parks against each other when it comes to runDisney events. As someone who’s experienced runDisney in Disneyland, he’s curious what differences to expect at Walt Disney World. While they both may feature runs through theme parks, there are some major differences.  Our special segment takes us to a time in Tomorrowland when all the plants were edible and had their distinct use. While we note to NOT eat the plants that don’t belong to you, Tim brings some humor and insight as to what it meant for Tomorrowland at the time! Don’t miss this segment if you’re a Tomorrowland fan!

    Survive Your Stay: EPCOT- EP.132

    It’s the return of Survive Your Stay — our listener-favorite, “end-of-the-world” Disney Parks scenario, in which our hosts inhabit EPCOT during the apocalypse. What are their plans for the future? What attraction or area becomes their home base? What do they use for resources and food? So many questions to answer in this wacky “what if?” scenario. If you’re a fan of unique discussions about Walt Disney World, this topic will surely spark your imagination and creativity!  Plus, we look back to our recent “Disney Parks Solo” show in our mail call segment. James from NY writes in with a cautionary lesson about his own solo park day experience, reminding listeners of the importance of advocating for yourself while on a solo trip. Eating and drinking appropriately play a BIG role on your day, and James’ personal lesson drives that home.  And Riley brings her Lorcana experience to the show in another Core Memory Corner,where she relives her experience participating in the Lorcana Illumineer’s Quest at the Festival of the Arts earlier this year. She learned about trading and collecting and found her own appreciation for the card art, all because of the festival. She hopes there will be more this coming year!

    How We Disney: Park Photography- EP.131

    *CJ was a little under the weather for this one folks. We apologize for any sniffles or coughs we may have missed in editing.* Shutterbugs, assemble! It’s time for Danny and CJ to share some of their favorite photography tips for any fellow or aspiring Disney Parks photographers! From their kits and gear to their tips and tricks, there are NO secrets kept in the Parks Pod Fam! Curious how to get started or what you can do to get the most out of your camera phone? Our hosts have you covered with all their combined experiences, and they’ll have you snapping those perfect castle photos in no time.  Kicking off with Mail Call, the hosts are cast with the idea of refurbishing a current attraction to “plus.” No preserving or paving today — just picking a favorite attraction to upgrade. Lots of discussion around the potential upgrades, but what two attractions do they settle on for this listener question? The middle segment brings back our dedicated friend and listener Andrew, who gives us a difficult and slightly divisive “this-or-that” scenario. Are you a table-service or quick-service diner? This really drives home not only what type of eater you are, but how you tour the parks, and CJ and Danny have a lot of thoughts.  We also want to hear more from you. We are planning a listener-driven “this-or-that” episode and need you all to submit your impossible this-or-that scenarios for our hosts!

Did CJ and Danny unlock the secret for the least-expensive character breakfast in WDW? Drop a listen to find out.  The show kicks off with another mail call that tackles one of our more viral questions: “Who is BILL?!” Andrew from Vegas sends the email that sparks the conversation.

    The Magic of Disney Animation: EP.126

    The Magic of Disney Animation has opened its doors, and Danny and Tim were among some of the first to experience the newest addition to Hollywood Studios. What did they think? What are some highlights? And what piqued CJ’s curiosity as a guest who’s excited to see the space himself? Listen as our three hosts walk you through both Animation Courtyard and the Magic Of Disney Animation to see what it’s all about. Thank you to Walt Disney World for hosting! The mini segment is all about the young ones enjoying this space as Riley relives her first visits to Animation Courtyard and Disney Jr. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live! With this space being so family-centric, what better way to highlight that than a Core Memory Corner with Riley? And maybe a kiss on Lucifer? The Mail Call takes us back a bit to discuss the holidays in WDW and when the parade comes to daily operations. A first-time mailer, Courtney, asks what she could expect from a visit to Walt Disney World between Christmas and New Years. Would she experience the parade? What other ways could her and her family celebrate Christmas during their stay?  Thank you for joining Parks & Pages every Tuesday, and be sure to subscribe so you never miss an episode.
