MOW #035 - Compare and Contrast: Disney Versus Its Competitor

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We appreciate you listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. Factoid of the day: Walt Disney himself is not cryogenically frozen.

We bring you another traditional MOW show this week. 

In the Queue. we cover the following news stories:

Disney video games

Frozen and the Academy Awards

Disney Animation versus Pixar

Festival of Fantasy Parade launch

and much, much more!

In the Hub, we introduce our first compare and contrast show. During Mardi Gras week of 2014, Kevin had the opportunity to take a 5 day cruise on the Carnival Triumph. This was his first experience on a Carnival “funship” and this was his second experience on a cruise ever. The first time he was on a cruise ship was during his honeymoon with the Disney Cruise Line aboard this Disney Wonder (and there were only two Disney ships back then, boys and girls, the other being the Magic). And, it just so happens that the Disney Wonder was in port in Cozumel at the same time the Carnival Triumph was in Cozumel. Kevin compares his two experiences: the Disney Wonder back in 2007 and the Carnival Triumph in 2014. He had wonderful times with both companies. He is not endorsed by Disney or Carnival. This is just a friendly comparison between a veteran cruise ship company (Carnival Cruise Lines est. 1972) and the relatively new kid on the block (Disney Cruise Line est. 1994). If you remember, back before the Disney Cruise Line came into existence, Disney characters could be found on Premier Cruise Line’s Big Red Boat.
