Another Disney Price Hike, MagicBand+, and Comparing Annual Pass Prices
Thanks for listening to the first episode of Standby Queue. This is the show where Aaron and Drew discuss theme park news and theories, like they used to do while, you guessed it, standing in the line for the next big ride! I hope you enjoy the conversation on the latest Disney price increase, the introduction of MagicBand+ to Disneyland, and play a fun Price Is Right style game on annual pass prices. See you in the next one!

Could Theme Parks Perfect the Escape Room?
Imagining a future for our favorite theme park juggernauts to enter the Escape Room business! What type of escape room based on a theme park's IP would you imagine? Do you think that the creative talent behind our favorite parks would take the escape room better or worse?
At some point last year, we lost track of this episode and it was never posted. But with a little sleuthing in an archive hard drive, you may now enjoy our take on escape rooms!

DISNEY D23 PREDICTIONS!
Aaron and Drew make some wild (and not-so-wild) predictions about the upcoming Disney Parks announcements we could hear at the 2022 D23 Expo, being held in Anaheim California. The two make conjectures about what will get announced, what previous announcements will receive more details, and what attractions will be entirely ignored at this year's panel. What do you think?
Once the panel has concluded, be sure to tell us in the comments how great and/or terrible we did at predictions!

A Worthy Upgrade for the Universal Tram Tour
Replacing the styrofoam Whoville set from Ron Howard's classic "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" is a nondescript parking lot of movie cars. Tragic! So, Drew and Aaron take on the unique challenge - imagining a new Universal Hollywood Tram Tour experience that is fully experienced 2-3 minutes and can be reset throughout the day with minimal effort and a small cast.
What would you put in this parking lot space? What do you think about TPS's ideas?

Customer Reviews
Super Fun!
This podcast brings joy to my day! I love theme parks so much, and the hosts are so creative and knowledgeable that you feel like you’re talking with that friend who knows all the secrets of the parks. Can’t wait to hear more of their ideas!
Super fun Theme Park Chats!
This is the perfect combination of Armchair Imagineering, fanciful conjecture, and theme park nostalgia to come together and make an engaging and enlightening podcast. The hosts do an excellent job of structuring the discussing so it isn’t full of random ramblings, but specific and directed discussions into things that lots of theme park fans dream about.
Excited for what’s to come!
