    The One with Being Stuck on a Disney Ride

    The One with Being Stuck on a Disney Ride

    In the 214th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave are back together again on the mic, as Jenn's world travels finally stop... for now, anyway.

    And back on the show again is our own Quasi-Producer Heather, aka The Moana Mom! 
    First, Heather is always at Disney, Jenn is drinking the coffee, and Dave is running (walking) the 5Ks this summer.  Jenn and Heather gives the update on the Disney Destiny, while Genie+ is gone, Multi Pass is here! 

    Then, by request of our wonderful listener Rory in PA, we discuss rides to get stuck on.  And by "stuck", we mean ALL day... what attractions would you be fine with spending the day on, especially if it kept running? And what rides would be terrible, maybe disastrous for hours on end? 

    Plus, more proof that Heather does in fact love hippos.

    The One with Solo Parenting at Disney

    The One with Solo Parenting at Disney

    In the 213th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave once again aren't together, so once again, part time co-host #KylaKylaKyla steps in again to fill the Louboutin shoes of Jenn.

    Kyla is getting ready for her upcoming weekend with her 11 and 7 year old (going as a solo parent!) while Dave is once again piling up Legos from Prime Day! 
    In the news, the Country Bears officially re-opens, while Disneyland turns 69, and we are a week away from Genie+ going away and Multi Pass and Single Pass rolling in. 
    Then, your hosts have a fun discussion on all the merits, travails, details and magic of taking a solo parenting trip with your kids.  Kyla has a tween and a kid, while Dave has an ASD 12yo, so both have different perspectives on traveling to WDW, picking a resort, choosing dining, and the key fumbles Dave made in his travels... the shoes!?  The toothbrush!? The medicine!!

    The One with Cruising the Med

    In the 212th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave are joined again by Quasi Producer Heather, aka The Moana Mom!  

    First, a little catch up, as Jenn is back from most of her travels (with one more travel week to go!), and The Moana Mom Heather is getting ready for a Top of the World Experience later in the day.

    All three have seen "Inside Out", two on a cruise ship and one with a ASD kid in tow, and all three give their reviews and opinions (mild spoilers).
    Then Dave takes a backseat while Jenn and Heather both share their experiences aboard the Disney Dream, cruising through the Mediterranean Sea, stopping at several of the Greek ports.
    Heather shares her fulfillment of a longtime dream... sort of... and Jenn shares her visit to the Colosseum and to Athens.

    They both give tips and thoughts on the ports and the crowds, and the unexpected stop that you should not miss!

    The One with the Genie+ Changes

    The One with the Genie+ Changes

    In the 211th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave this week are Heather & Dave, as Jenn is returning from one of her final trips of the summer season! 

    Heather, aka The Moana Mom, fills the co-host spot today and she and Dave jump into news immediately, with so much to discuss!
    Starting out with Heather and her girls heading to Tiana's for an event (which allows them to ride over and over!), they discuss CommuniCore Hall in Epcot... the Fort Wilderness Cabins that have opened... the Eat to the Beat lineup coming in the fall (and what Justin Timberlake's best PR move could possibly be)... the dates for Jollywood and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party... and more.

    Then, an overview of the changes coming to Walt Disney World with Genie+... the new Multi Pass... the Single Day Pass... how it will (or should) work... some of the things you can and cannot do... and opinions on how Disney makes things harder than it ever has to be.

    The One with All the Epcot

    The One with All the Epcot

    In the 210th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn and Dave finally reunite on the show!  Jenn is back from her overseas world travels, while Dave is just back from his weekend with his 12yo, and both have a few things to share -- more on both trips in coming episodes.
    And because the subject is Epcot today, coming back into the studio is third co-host #KylaKylaKyla (ready for her own trip!) and Vlogger, Influencer, and showman THE Derek Frank (on location in Iowa!), and the foursome are here to chat all the Epcot stuff.
    First, a quick look at the newest Disney change, as Genie+ is set to go away, to be replaced by Multi Pass and Single Pass and all the Pass. 
    Then, now that the Epcot walls are finally down, we all give our thoughts on all the new things we've gotten in the last few years... and the things we didn't get. Mary Poppins, anyone?
    Wrapping up the series from the last few weeks, the crew looks at all the attractions in Epcot, from the newest like Remy and Guardians to the classics like Figment and Spaceship Earth -- what gets a "LOVE IT!", what gets a "LIKE IT", and what ends up in the "Meh" pile. 

    And finally... Jenn, d$, Kyla, and Derek all give their 1, 2, 3, and 4 rankings of the Epcot festivals.
    This is a great ep of conversation for any Epcot fan!

    The One with Rating AK & the Studios

    In the 209th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave become Kyla & Dave for another week, as Jenn is still overseas on a Mediterranean cruise!  So Kyla takes the co-hosting duties as they pick up from last week.
    And last week, it was rating the Magic Kingdom... Love it!  Like it!  Or just... Meh.  This week, they take on Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios -- and invite in vlogger and influencer Derek "Let's Be" Frank to join the conversation.
    They review each park attraction by attraction, including several shows, with their own take on how much the like, love, or are just uncaring about a ride or show, with several sidebars along the way... liking the new style Mickey... hope for D23... why Disco Yeti can't go back to Swinging Yeti... and at the end, thoughts on the constant repair of the upcoming Tiana's Bayou Adventure.
