Bye, Bye Backlot Tour 

and that’s about it!

In the Hub, we discuss a podcaster’s take on the public’s response to the Frozen-ing of the Norway pavilion. We completely agree with what he says, but I guess the way in which he handled the response is what we disagree with. It is a very fun and thorough discussion and we would love to hear your opinions on it. If you have any ideas regarding our topic, be sure to send us your experiences. We would love to hear them.

This week we have the return of our Magic Our Way segment in which we address a Twitter questions from Ken. He asks, “How do you see All Star Resorts remaining relevant in 5, 10, 20 years?” This is a great question and. again, we would love to hear the listeners' take on this question as well.

It has been two weeks since a show has been released; however, we did run into some technical difficulties with our last show. But, this show marks our very first show utilizing Skype. This now paves the way for us to have guests on our show not from around our areas of residence. With that being said, we deliver a very typical show for us and we present to you a very interesting Hub: if Disney were to design a ride in which you played the role of a bad guy, what would it be? We got this idea from the boys over at WDW Today and we decided to run with it and do some armchair imagineering.  If you have any ideas regarding our Hub topic, be sure to send us your experiences. We would love to hear them.

MOW Field Report #010 - It’s Our SECOND Listener Field Report!!!

Jambeaux, everyone!!! We are continuing our series of podcasts on our same feed called the Magic Our Way Field Reports. To remind the listener, these shows will not be a regular segment due to the fact that these are podcasts we record straight on location at a Disney park or Disney event.

On this particular show, we feature one of you, the listener. This is a new feature that we are starting with hopes that it will allow you to get more involved in talking all things Disney with us. This episode features Blayke and Emily and they discuss the things they experienced during their trip to Walt Disney World back in May 2014. They even go above and beyond the call of duty and plus their field report. Give the show a listen to see how. Thanks, Blayke and Emily!!!

MOW #040 - Cast Member Stories: Conversations with a WDW College Program Alumna

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We appreciate your listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. We also appreciate your feedback and are committed to listening to our listeners. Factoid of the day: if you see a sign that says “don’t pull” in a Disney park, you should probably pull it!

We are proud to announce that we have our second guest on our show (even though I announced it as our first; I was incorrect). We get to sit down with a Walt Disney World College Program alumna, whom we shall refer to as “Jackie.” and discuss her particular experiences with the program. The Magic Our Way Podcast is not affiliated with the Walt Disney Company or its entities and all opinions expressed therein are solely those of the Magic Our Way podcast.

In the Queue. we cover the following news stories:

  • The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train opening date
  • Frozen’s Olaf at Blizzard Beach

On the Hub today, we get to sit down and talk with someone who has been a part of making the Disney magic happen for those that have visited the “World,” specifically the Blizzard Beach water park. “Jackie” shares some of her cast members stories with us. Please keep in mind that this is a very honest telling of what it takes to bring the magic to the guests each and every day. Also keep in mind is that this is not all pixie dust and magical wonder; entertaining is not easy and there are ups and downs associated with this experience. But, in the end, it all creates a positive experience for the guests, so much so that some of us come back year after year and listen to or create podcasts to fill the time in between trips! We hope to have her back once in a while to tell us more stories of working for the “happiest place on earth.” If you enjoy this show, please let us know by contacting us at magicourway@gmail.com

MOW #039 - Book Review: 102 Ways to Save Money For and At Walt Disney World by Lou Mongello

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We appreciate your listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. We also appreciate your feedback and are committed to listening to our listeners. Factoid of the day: the stones used in the construction of Cinderella's Castle are non-existent.

We are proud to announce that we are presenting to you, the listener, our very first book review!!! We lead off with an awesome one: Lou Mongello’s 102 Ways to Save Money For and At Walt Disney World. As a disclaimer, Lou did send us a free PDF copy of his book to review. But, other than that, we have no affiliation with Lou Mongello or WDW Radio “world.” All thoughts and opinions expressed in this show are solely that of Danny and Kevin and the Magic Our Way community. But first, some news.

In the Queue. we cover the following news stories:

  • No more of Danny’s favorite frappe: athio Kouzzina
  • More of Kevin’s lectures: Pixar, A113, and CalArts
  • Trader Sam’s, fountains, and the Polynesian Village….Resort AND an article about the Trader Sam’s in Disneyland
  • Killer, unique t-shirt designs by Nomeus Gronovii through Redbubble: available at The Department of Citrus

and much, much more!

Yes, indeed!!! You read that correctly! We are presenting our very first of hopefully many book reviews here on the Magic Our Way podcast. An opportunity to review a new book by one of the “Old Breed” of the Disney-fan community came to us and we decided to take it. We are review Lou Mongello’s new book, 102 Ways to Save Money For and At Walt Disney World. We appreciate the opportunity that Lou has given us to review his new book. In a nutshell, we loved the book and it will be a great resource for Disney travelers for years to come and we explain why. If you would like to purchase the book, you can download it to your Kindle or get a hardcopy from amazon.com, you can download it to your Nook book from Barnes and Noble, or you can purchase it directly from Lou’s website at WDWRadio.com. This book comes highly recommended from Danny and Kevin of the Magic Our Way podcast. If you have the book or will be purchasing the book, let us know what you think and let Lou know that you heard about it from the Magic Our Way podcast. Send Lou an email. Send the Magic Our Way Podacst an email.

As always, we promise to give the Disney fan a voice!

Production Note: for next week’s show, we will sit down with a Walt Disney World College Program alumnus and get completely geeky with her.

MOW #038 - Disneyland Paris Trip Report

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: most Animal Kingdom animals are real…the dinosaurs are not.

The trips are over for now and we are VERY excited to get back to recording our shows for you. We lead off with an awesome one: Danny’s Disneyland Paris Trip report. Joining us on today’s show is his travel companion and always-beautiful wife, Anna. But first, some news.

  • Kevin’s World Music lecture: Off Kilter, why are there kilts in Canada?
  • Debunking an April Fools’ Joke
  • Where is all the Frozen merchandise?!?!?!

and much, much more!

This week we discuss a very simple topic: Danny's Disneyland Paris Trip Report. The great thing about this report is that Danny and Anna are both first-time visitors to this Disney resort. We get to hear about their journey across the pond and having to deal with a culture almost completely foreign to them. And, we get to hear how this culture affected their experience in the Disneyland Paris park. Lastly, of course we talk about the attractions and the food and answer your questions sent in to us via Twitter and Facebook. Do you want to add to the discussion? Email us at magicourway@gmail.com or send us a message through Facebook or Twitter. We would love to hear what you have to say. We always promise to give the Disney fan a voice!

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: the 3 o’clock parade begins its journey at.wait for it…3 O’CLOCK PM!!!

MOW Twitter-verse

Incredibles 2 and Cars 3

Another 24 hour day

Festival of Fantasy Parade

Gill might have set some fish free

A unique pirate experience in Shanghai Disneyland

and much, much more!

We both grew up with Epcot Center and we really like that park. However, we feel that over the years, the park has lost its identity as it got older. We go ahead and do some backseat imagineering for our Hub this week. We come up with ways that we think would help Epcot get back to its true self, a little theme park self-help if you will. We also discuss what two of our viewers mentioned to us regarding their thoughts on improving the park. Do you have any thoughts regarding this? If so, be sure to send us an email and we will read it on the air. It doesn’t matter how positive or negative you are about it, we will always give every Disney fan a voice.

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.

  • Disney Movies Anywhere app
  • Kevin likes the Animal Kingdom and the Dinosaur attraction
  • WDW ticket prices go up
  • Another Jon Negroni article: Andy’s mom

and much, much more!

In the Hub, we discuss a question that was discussed during our podcast trip back in January. We asked each other, what job in Walt Disney world would you most want and what would you least want? We are not talking Imagineer or anything like that; we are talking about jobs that require the least amount of training. We also talk about the Casey’s Corner redux and the reorganization of the actual Magic Kingdom Hub.

In the Hub, we do some backseat imagineering. We discuss a question posed by one of our Twitter followers: how do you think Frozen should be introduced into the parks? One of the biggest Disney Animated movies to hit the box office in a while is sure to find a home in the parks in a substantial way someday. We explore some ideas on how we would do it. Also, we talk about how we would redo the Hollywood Studios. This is a park that has kind of lost its identity in a similar way as EPCOT Center’s Future World. We discuss things that we would do to make the Studios better such as reorganizing the lands, attractions, etc.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! We are continuing our series of podcasts on our same feed called the Magic Our Way Field Reports. To remind the listener, these shows will not be a regular segment due to the fact that these are podcasts we record straight on location at a Disney park or Disney event. You can call it our "on location" podcasts. We grab the portable studio and record anything from a mini trip report or attraction audio or interviews. 

On this particular show, we feature one of you, the listener. This is a new feature that we are starting up that will allow you to get more involved in talking all things Disney with us. This episode features Sean from Orlando. He talks about his opinions regarding the new Fastpass+ system and he offers some park audio. You will get a chance to listen to a ride-through of the Test Track 2.0 and also get a chance to listen to the Epcot rope drop ceremony. You can follow Sean on Twitter, @FishSeanWoo, to see the pictures that he refers to in his Field Report. Thanks, Sean!!!

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: Johnny Five is alive!!!

This week’s show is another one of our favorite mashups of Disney stuff: OUR BIG QUEUE SHOW, where we talk about anything and everything that has come across our path since the last time we sat down and recorded a show. this week’s show is basically in two parts.

Firstly, we do a lot of shout outs to our listeners who feed us information and to a fellow podcaster who has returned to the Disney fan universe. Yes, we welcome back one of Kevin’s favorite podcasts, Netcot. It was one of the first shows Kevin listened to when he first discovered the Disney podcast community. Also, we have a listener Sean who took time to send us and email AND a recording of his Fastpass + experience in Epcot with his children. Also, one of our listener’s, Lee, started his own Disney travel agency, Just A Dream Away Travel Agency. We congratulate him on his accomplishment. We introduce a new way for our listeners to get involved with the show and we address you Recording Day Questions!!! Also, we discuss where in New Orleans one can find a Dole Whip.

Secondly, we talk about numerous topics that have come up since our last recording. Danny surprises Kevin with a new game called, the Top 7 Stacy-isms where he has to guess out of a line up of three answers which is not the real Stacy-ism. Kevin then shares something personal regarding the Little Mermaid movie; he has been wanting to get this off his chest for a while now. We also talk about ABC’s firing of the Dancing With the Stars Orchestra. World Showcase waterfront property is slowly becoming hard to come by. Disney is starting to put waterfront buildings in the country pavilions. How do you like this complete enclosure by the countries?

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: better late than never!!!

This week’s show is our long lost, finally released Halloween Show. This was originally supposed to be released before Halloween of 2013, but due to life and production time, it took us a awhile to get everything going. But, we figured we would release it now than never release it at all. We really enjoyed doing this episode and we wanted to share with our audience.  

Anyway, Danny and I play a little Truth or False game utilizing facts from Danny’s favorite ride, The Haunted Mansion. Then, we discuss our picks for the scariest rides in Disney World. And lastly, We talk about which attractions we thought would be best for having a Halloween overlay.

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: hippos are huge!!!

On this week’s show, we discuss a myriad of topics all of which center around our Trip Report for our First Podcast Trip to the World!!! We lead off the show and give our listeners a hearty Asante Sana as we read and respond to their emails. Thank you to each and every one of you that have written in so far. 

Secondly, we talk about our trip down to the World together for the first time. We tried to cover things that we didn’t cover in the Field Reports and also embellish on the things we brought up on our Field Reports. There were a lot of firsts for us during this trip which really helped to make this trip special.  We discuss Kevin’s experience with letting Disney chauffeur him around the property. The backstory is that Kevin usually has a car while in Disney World and does enjoy driving around property. Is it a control issue? Could be. We also go into Danny’s take on Disney transportation in reference to DVC privileges. HAHAHA! Next we offer our first impressions of the Art of Animation Resort, a place neither of us have ever stayed. We then talk about our stay at the Bay Lake Towers, specifically the showers. Then, Danny relates his experience watching the Norway movie for the first time. We got stuck on Primeval Whirl!!! Guano Joe and The Flights of Wonder: love this show and you would be remiss if you missed it. We give a state of the Soarin’ attraction address. We visit Splitsville and give our first impressions of it. I took Danny to the Top of the World lounge at Bay Lake Towers. Kevin finally gets in to the Be Our Guest Restaurant and has a great experience. Lastly, we talk about the Disneyland App. If you are looking for a good mobile Disney fix, this app is definitely the way to go. It reminds us of the Walt Disney World Explorer computer game. 

Finally, we started a new thing on our show. We tweeted out that we were recording and we wanted you, the listener, to shoot us questions during the recording. So, if you want to be part of the Magic Our Way podcast, follow us on Twitter and Facebook so you receive notification that we are recording. We look forward to hearing from you.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! We are continuing our series of podcasts on our same feed called the Magic Our Way Field Reports. To remind the listener, these shows will not be a regular segment due to the fact that these are podcasts we record straight on location at a Disney park or Disney event. You can call it our "on location" podcasts. We grab the portable studio and record anything from a mini trip report or attraction audio or interviews. 

This series of field reports centers around our first ever podcast trip together for Danny and Kevin sans family. So, this makes it our first field report together from the World. On this episode, we briefly talk about our last day in the World as we get scooted away by disney’s Magical Express. We talk about Kevin’s first time at the Be Our Guest Restaurant, some Fastpass+ beta tests that we learned about. and some refurbs that started in the Magic Kingdom on our last day. 

If you enjoy these trip reports, let us know by sending your comments and suggestions to magicourway@gmail.com. You can follow us on Twitter (@magicourway) and like us on Facebook. You can also follow us on the video status site, Keek. We know you have a multitude of Disney podcasts to chose from and we appreciate you taking the time to give us a listen.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. This is show #028a. As we have stated before, thank you for joining us this week and thank you for your patience!

This week’s show is has been split into two episodes due to the fact that when we started recording, we did not realize that this show would become a two-hour extravaganza as well. So, this week you have 28a and next week you have 28b. So, Kevin takes a family trip to the World during Thanksgiving Week and, of course, we have to talk about it. It was Kevin's first time staying at the Polynesian Resort. Some of the things we talk about is life with a Magicband. What happens when you have the Disney Dining Plan attached to your Magicband and it is time to pay? Also, Polynesian DVC, what's up, doc? Also, since the weather was so cold that week, Kevin's family decided to stay inside and live luxuriously; for the first time in their life, they take advantage of Disney Room Service.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. This show is a continuation of show #027a. As we have stated before, we may take breaks now and then, but we are not going away anytime soon. Thank you for your patience!

This week’s show is a continuation of the discussion we began last week. We begin by finishing up our discussion regarding the Magicband system in Walt Disney World. The next thing we talk about is expanding mass transit in WDW. We are wondering if monorails were so expensive to build, why not use conventional trains to scoot around the World? Why use so many buses instead? And lastly, we discuss the whole policy of filling in every available space. It is not that we disagree with it. But, we point out that there are some people that actually don’t understand this policy invoking some kind of anger towards the guest who does understand it and is just responding to what he/she has been instructed to do by the cast member.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We are back with a new series of shows related to our favorite topic: all things magical, but mostly Disney!!! We are so glad to be back recording again as this gives us an escape from our daily life. As we have stated before, we may take breaks now and then, but we are not going away anytime soon. Thank you for your patience!

This week, we decided to do another BIG Queue show because there are so many things for us to talk about. This week we talk about iTunes placement. It seems like we are creeping up among the ranks of known Disney podcasts. We’re rubbing shoulder-to-shoulder with one of our favorite podcasters. That is always exciting. Also, in response to the release of Avatar Land concept art, we offer our opinions once again regarding this highly debatable land. And, because Kevin will be experiencing it for the first time, we decided to discuss as much of what we know regarding the new Magicband system. We talk pros and cons and expectations, etc etc.

This week, since we have a lot of catching up to do, we decided to do another BIG Queue show so that we can offer our opinions on things that have happened in the past several months. Now, as a disclaimer, I would like to say that we actually recorded this show about a month ago. So, there will be some recent events that we will have not commented on yet. But, rest assured, we will. On this episode we talk about the Polynesian DVC, the new California Grill, the NEW Guest Assistance Program, and much, much more!!!

Plus, I bring back an old segment: I BEG TO DIFFER. You’ll want to hear it.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. It is time for a fresh, uplifting show!!! And, the topic we have chosen to accomplish this is ROMANCE!!! Let’s go!!!

This week, we once again address several topics which peaked our interest for discussion while waiting in the Queue. In this case, we enrich our literary minds by discussing books that are in the works such as a comic book, a graphic novel, and Marty Sklar’s new book, Dream It! Do it!: My Half-Century Creating Disney’s Magic Kingdoms, which is coming out on August 13, 2013. 

In the Hub, we talk about how to have a romantic time in Walt Disney World. Yes, you read that correctly! Couples can have a romantic time in Disney World....should one have thorough planning of said experience. We gladly share some of our tips of things to do and not to do when planning a romantic romp through the parks. Itineraries...YES, we came up with our own versions of a one day romantic experience at Disney World. Danny will take the “blue sky” approach and Kevin will take a rather less expensive approach to romancing your significant other in the World. Listen and see what they have to say. If you have any suggestions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at magicourway@gmail.com. We could probably use the help. HAHAHA!

Lastly, we want to give a big shout out to Bob Sikon from All In WDW. Bob has articles all over the place and he has a lot of great Disney content on his website which can be found at this address: www.allinwdw.com. Follow him on Twitter (@allinwdw.com) and like his page on Facebook (Bob Allinwdw). You can also subscribe to Bob’s website by entering your email address in the form on the right hand side of the page. DON”T FORGET TO VOTE! Bob has a new poll up that explores which quick service dining option Disney fans consider to be the best in the Animal Kingdom.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. It is time for part 2 of our mind blowing and rather mentally exhausting discussion into Jon Negroni’s Pixar Theory. 

This week, we once again address several topics which peaked our interest for discussion while waiting in the Queue. The Festival of the Lion King finally settles on its home. Disneyland has some last minute, end-of-the-summer vacation deals. Disney sets to make the Artemis Fowl series of books into a series of movies based around this character. And, we decide to look at another one of Bob’s polls from All In WDW. This time, we talk about the results of the King of the World poll he conducted in April 2013. This poll set out to see which attraction was deemed the best in the “World.” 

In the Hub, we have part two of our discussion regarding THE PIXAR THEORY by Jon Negroni (www.jonnegroni.com). We are working to fully understand the theory and to see if it “holds water” so to speak. Anyway, if you have not heard about this theory, go read it on Jon Negroni’s website. We would love to get your reaction to this. In short, it addresses a notion that all of the Pixar movies exist within the same universe. We surmise that it is not the same universe in which we exist. It deals with two developing concepts over time in the “Pixar” universe: the advancement of animal intelligence and the advancement of artificial intelligence to the point that neither machine nor animal need humans to survive. Wild, huh?!?! Read it, listen to our thoughts and please write us with your thoughts at magicourway@gmail.com. The second half of the discussion goes Syndrome and Zero Point Energy through Wall-E and Monsters and back to Brave. Good luck! If you survive the mental adventure that awaits you, you deserve a cookie and a pat on the back. We are glad this discussion is over. We promise something light and happy for next week. HAHA!

You can view the results of the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and Hollywood Studios polls on his website. Look for “Reader Favorites.” Round 1 is on Friday and the Final round is on Saturday with the winner to be announced on Sunday. Next week, he will have the winners from each of the four parks go head to head in the best Quick Service option in the “World.”

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. It is time for part 1 of some mind blowing discussions related to Disney movies. We are mentally worn out after recording this part. Hahaha!

This week, we once again address several topics which peaked our interest for discussion while waiting in the Queue. Phineas and Ferb and Star Wars...THE UNIVERSES COLLIDE!!! Along with this, Epcot’s Journey into Imagination pavillion is schedule to go down for a redo....possibly. AT&T customers will hopefully receive a “luxury” at the Disney parks on both coasts as AT&T becomes the official provider for the resorts. Rivers of Light...RIVERS OF LIGHTTTTT...at the Animal Kingdom...this is a parade on the river that is to take place at night. Is this enough to make Animal Kingdom an all day park for you? We shall see...we shall see. No more Spectromagic...it has been confirmed by Disney officials...Kevin is in mourning.

In the Hub, we discuss THE PIXAR THEORY by Jon Negroni (www.jonnegroni.com). We are working to fully understand the theory and to see if it “holds water” so to speak..and to reference "My Cousin Vinny.” “YUTES!” Anyway, If you have not heard about this theory, go read it on Jon Negroni’s website.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We are 21 shows old today and we are feeling very adult!!! We have a great show for you today as we explore another aspect of park life that has never seen the light of day.

In this week’s Queue, we once again address several topics which peaked our interest for discussion while waiting in the queue. Disney performs a “Hat trick” at the Rose and Crown Pub in the United Kingdom pavilion in EPCOT Center. The last bastion of Merriweather Adam Pleasure’s vision has finally left the building. You can now recharge and discharge in Fantasyland at the Magic Kingdom. We talk about the lineup of narrators for the 2013 Candlelight Processional. With the coming of new things that one must do, we will soon see a new version of Must-Dos on resort TV starring the lovely, and always perky, Stacy Aswad. And lastly, for those wishing to become part of the magic, we discuss some upcoming auditions taking place soon.

In the Hub, we discuss the missing, yet ever referenced, land in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Beastly Kingdom. This land was supposed to be located where Camp Minnie Mickey is today. Through research we talk about what the land was supposed to look like, what the details of the attractions and restaurants were to be, and the eventual demise of the plans for this remarkable land. We feel that this is a land that could have done really well since its opening and we are sad to know that it might not happen. Maybe in the future, who knows? After all, “if we can dream it, we can do it.”

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. It is our first major holiday show!!! It’s is our 3.5 hour July 4th American Independence Day spectacular!!!!....not really. It is a long show, however...1 hour and 45 minutes long. Kevin had a lot of fun coming up with new jingles, background music, and sounds for this 4th of July special. What’s even better is that this is a regular format show...somewhat. LOL!!!

In this week’s Queue, the boys do not necessarily chat about the latest news. However, while waiting in line, they do decide do a salute to patriotic things at all of the Disney parks.... but mostly Walt Disney World and Disneyland. A lot of help came from the Military Disney Tips blog on the www.militarydisneytips.com website. This website has a great series of blogs related to experiencing all things patriotic that happen in Walt Disney World. This is not just talking about the special events that happen on July 4th, but rather things of a patriotic nature that happen year-round. This is the stuff that makes the hairs on the back of an American’s head stand up whenever you visit them. Things mentioned include the Disney flag retreat, the Hall of Presidents, the American Adventure, and the Shades of Green resort.

And then, in the Hub, the boys discuss a 1990s Eisner creation that never saw the light of day: Disney’s America theme park. This resort was to be placed in Haymarket, Virginia not far from Washington, D.C. This theme park was to be dedicated to the history of the United States from the 1840s to 1945. They explore the layout of the park including all of the lands, the proposed attractions, where some of the ideas ended up, and instances that led to the downfall and demise of Eisner’s pet project. 

And lastly, we end the show not with our regular closing jingle, but with the popular song from the American Adventure pavilion, “Golden Dream.” This celebrates the spirit of America and serves as our salute to the nation’s birthday.

Thanks again for listening to us. We do realize that you have many choices when it comes to Disney podcasts and we appreciate your attention. Also, we were talking about seatbelts. Plug them in. Use them. It can get kinda choppy out there, so keep your hands and arms inside the podcast at all times. Flash photography? I wouldn’t. It alters the podcast’s homing signal and that’s not good.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. Since we decided to do an All-About-The-Queue Show last week, we thought we would follow it up with an All-About-The-Hub Show this week.

Yes, indeed! We are reviewing the ENTIRE Monsters University experience. Not only do we talk about the movie in and of itself, but we also talk about the stuff that happened before the movie even started. We will discuss the trailer for Disney Planes movie, which is set to open in August, the trailer for Despicable Me 2, and the Pixar short, The Blue Umbrella. One trailer that we forgot to mention on the show is the trailer for Turbo, which we will most likely discuss on next week’s show; there is nothing more amusing than a very fast snail. With the Monsters University movie, we discuss the link between Monsters Inc and this movie, the music and the art that was involved, and the overall message that we came away with. Let’s see if this is what you came away with too. We decided to use some different segment music throughout the show and this week’s closing song is no exception. So, make sure you listen through the end of the show. And if you are interested, the soundtrack for the movie is available in iTunes, actually wherever you buy your music whether it is through download or hardcopy. Also, you can catch the Blue Devils Drum Corps from Concord, CA at a DCI event near you. Check out www.dci.org for more information.

Those of you adventurers entering the world-famous Magic Our Way podcast, please notice there are two lines, one on the right and the other on the left. If you'd like to keep your family together, please stay in the same line. However, if there is someone in your family you'd like to get rid of, just put them in the opposite line and you'll never see them again.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. This week’s show is a bit different than our normal shows as this one is our BIG, HUGE, 7 and 1/2 hour Queue show condensed into one hour!!! 

Yes, you read this correctly, we have a myriad of topics that we wanted to discuss, but we just didn’t have one that would be broad enough for one Hub segment, so we decided to just chat while “waiting in line.” Kevin would first like to clarify the Walt Disney World cooler restrictions which was generally mentioned on last week’s show. He felt it is his responsibility to ensure that he did not mislead any listeners to that fact. Next, the boys discuss the new Disney Transportation paint job that they are putting on the busses. If you have not seen the pictures, go look at them. We would love to hear you opinions regarding this change in look. Then, Kevin gets a couple of things off of his chest: Princess Sofia’s inability to pronounce the name Cedric and his inability to do any the characters movements during the Hot Dog Dance at the end of the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. After this, we read a email we received from one of our listeners and respond and talk about other Magic Our Way ideas that he brought up. Lastly, we talk about the large rumor regarding Star Wars Land and Cars Land coming to Hollywood Studios. We take a MOW approach to what we would like to see regarding this particular addition to the park.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast...count ‘em: TWO, TWO, TWO IN A ROW!!! Woo hoo!!! or Woot!!! as the kids like to say. 

While waiting in the Queue, Danny and Kevin discuss a new event happening at Downtown Disney which is being called Carmasters Weekend. Also, this year’s D23 Expo attendees will be treated to a spectacular musical review in a production exclusive to this expo entitled Broadway and Beyond. This unique production will feature numerous stars from the Disney Theatrical universe. The Muppets Take Broadway...that’s all I have to say about that. Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival Registration opens soon. Are you ready for all the scrumptiousness headed your way?

In the Hub, Kevin and Danny discuss ways to keep cool during this time of the travel year. Ladies and Gentleman, it’s hot!!! Since some of you will be touring the parks during this time of year, Kevin wanted to discuss the ways in which he keeps himself and, more importantly, his little ones cool especially when traversing the World in their stroller. Many of these points can be applied to adults as well. So, with a little planning, you can stay safe, stay cool, and stay sane while touring the parks during the hot months. Just like Florida says, “Arrive Alive” which can also be taken to mean, when you arrive here and start doing what you are doing, make sure you do it smart so that you can “depart alive” too. Maybe that was a little stretch, but you get the idea.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast...a REBIRTH, if you will. We do explain our lengthy hiatus, but we assure you that we will not go away. We appreciate your understanding and your willingness to stay subscribed to us.

On this week’s Queue, we discuss the raising of the ticket prices, an event which is quickly becoming an expectation akin to gas prices. And, for those looking to become part of the magic, we will give you a quick run down of any upcoming auditions. 

In the Hub, we talk about Merida’s makeover for the Disney Princesses line of products. Is it good? Is it bad? Lets put it in perspective here. Also, we run off on a tangent and move into a bit reminiscent of our old Magic Our Way segment: we discuss Tangled, Brave, and Wreck It Ralph attraction ideas.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. On this week’s Queue, we discuss Disneyland and OSHA’s involvement in closing down several of the rides there. We also talk about the new Adventureland interactive game, which is reminiscent of the Sorcerer's of the Magic Kingdom game, that is coming to the Magic Kingdom park. And, once again, for those looking to become part of the magic, we will give you a quick run down of any upcoming auditions. Now, as you read this, it is time to get comfy in your chair and grab a drink, if you desire, and get ready to relax with us. Through this week’s Hub segment, we will transport you to places around the Walt Disney Resort which are relaxing to us. These places have been experienced and proven by the Magic Our Way staff. You might want a notepad for this so that you can remember these places for the next time you travel down to the World.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of Magic Our Way. We are back with a somewhat NEW format of the show. Well, we really did not add anything new; we just consolidated one segment into the other two. It is thoroughly explained in the show. So, for this week in the Queue, we discuss the Annette Funicello’s life, the sequel to the Finding Nemo movie entitled Finding Dory, and I give you heads up on some auditions happening in the coming weeks in case you want to be part of the magic. In the Hub segment, we discuss how not to feel underwhelmed at Disneyland. This topic is specifically aimed at Walt Disney World people who have yet to make their pilgrimage to our “Mecca”, Disneyland, and are thinking about going or planning to go there in the near future. Yeah, it’s smaller, so what!!! That’s one of the reasons Mr. Disney came out to Florida was to have a bigger canvas. But, there is still so much magic available to you in that resort.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of Magic Our Way. We are back with a somewhat normal format of a show. We have our Queue segment in which we discuss the topic everyone in the Disney community is buzzing about, the Disney Springs makeover of Downtown Disney. Our Hub segment this week comes from the Magic Our Way Vault. We recorded this back in 2012 when the first news of Limited Time Magic was released. This was actually recorded before we started posting shows to our server and distributing them. So, this is an older recorded segment, but it turned out to be one of our better shows. The topic of Limited Time Magic rolls over into our Magic Our Way segment in which Danny and I brainstorm ideas of what we would like to see happen during the year of Limited Time Magic. Lastly, we introduce a new segment to our show, I Beg To Differ. It is not meant to be controversial or disrespectful to any other podcasters. We are fans first of both Disney and of the established podcast shows. But, every now and then, we hear things that we either disagree with or have our own opinions to or are able to contribute more information towards whatever topic they are discussing. You know how podcasters always talk about people screaming at their iPods? Well, we took it one step further and created our own podcast. The I Beg To Differ segment is a “seasonal” segment.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of Magic Our Way. This episode is somewhat unique and calls for a different kind of introduction. A lot of stuff is happening in mine and Danny’s lives this week which I explain in more detail in my intro. Anyway, we present to you ride audio form the NEW Test Track in Epcot center. So, hop into your car and safely reenact the events from the ride. HAHAHA! Please don’t do that and if you do, be smart about it. Besides, 65 mph feels different in your car than it does in the Test Track vehicles. We will be back next week for a regular show.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! We are introducing a new series of podcasts on our same feed called the Magic Our Way Field Reports. These shows will not be a regular segment due to the fact that these are podcasts we record straight on location at a Disney park or Disney event. You can call it our "on location" podcasts. We grab the portable studio and record anything from a mini trip report or attraction audio or interviews. 

This series of field reports centers around Danny's trip he took with his family back in January 2013. It features his brother-in-law, Aaron, whom you first heard on our DVC show, MOW #010. On this episode, they talk about their first day on property at Walt Disney World...more specifically the trials they experienced.

If you enjoy these trip reports, let us know by sending your comments and suggestions to magicourway@gmail.com. You can follow us on Twitter (@magicourway) and like us on Facebook. You can also follow us on the video status site, Keek. We know you have a multitude of Disney podcasts to choose from and we appreciate you taking the time to give us a listen.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of Magic Our Way. In fact, this is a special episode for us because we made it in to the land of double digits!!! And, we decided enter this realm in a big way by doing our "often teased, but never done" BIG DVC SHOW!!! On this episode, Danny and Kevin are joined by Danny's brother-in-law, Aaron. Aaron travelled with Danny during their trip in January 2013 and is also featured in our new upcoming mini-series, Field Reports...more on this later. 

It is our goal with this DVC show to give the potential buyer as much info to consider as we can so that hopefully you will make the right decision for your family. And we stress, every situation is different. This isn't your regular DVC show. We don't address the points system and how it works or the whole banking/borrowing thing. We feel other shows have covered it well and you as a potential buyer will have most likely gotten that information from somewhere on the internet. 

We fully explore topics such as the following:

  • fully considering your family situation
  • the annual dues and how are they are calculated and its relation to what home resort you purchase in to
  • the diminishing value of a DVC discount
  • cost-effective use of your points
  • the resale market vs. DVC
  • booking window, maid service, etc...

Now, if you want us to do a show on how the DVC works, let us know and we will do that for you. On this show, we are not just playing roles, but are actually living them. This is what I mean:

  • Danny is seriously considering the Disney Vacation Club
  • Kevin is in the Disney Vacation Club
  • Aaron has fully researched the Disney Vacation Club and has decided, at least for now, it is not the right decision for him and his family.

We will most likely do another show soon regarding the whole rent DVC points thing and other things we were not able to cover. So, if there is something that we didn’t get to or if you have a question regarding DVC that you would like us to explore, please don’t hesitate to email us. We want to hear from you. 

Now, the Field Reports!!! On this same Magic Our Way feed, we will release our Field Report series of mini-podcasts. These will not be a regularly occurring show as it will be recorded on our actual trips to a Disney park. We have a set of four shows ready for release ifor next week. Let us know what you think.

As always, if you like the show, please rate us and leave a review in the iTunes Store. We do appreciate you taking the time to do so. Also, you can find us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter (@magicourway). Find some of our video statuses on Keek.com.

Jambeaux, everyone! Welcome to another episode of Magic Our Way. This is show #009 and we are quickly cruising CLOSER into double digit mode!!! This week’s show is Kevin’s trip report to Walt Disney World which took place during the week of Mardi Gras and Valentine’s Day. The Limited Time Magic promotion was called True Love Week. In regards to food, Kevin discusses his first time dining at the following: Olivia’s at the Old Key West Resort, the Hoop Dee Doo Revue at Fort Wilderness, and the Kona Cafe in the Polynesian Resort. Kevin professes his love for the lamb shank offering found at Gaston’s Tavern in the new part of Fantasyland. Following a challenge proposed during Danny’s trip report, Kevin ensured that he experience at least three new things during this visit. Well, he achieved that goal and definitely went beyond it.

Jambeaux. everyone!

Welcome to the 4th episode of Magic Our Way. This was supposed to be our Christmas show to be released on December 23, 2012. But, due to the flu, things got delayed. We still wanted to release this episode anyway because we found it to be one of our better shows. 

This week Kevin and Danny are joined by fellow QMark Productions podcasters, Eli and Mike from the And Another Thing Podcast...both of whom are Disney fans in their own right. For the Hub, we discuss rides that we never got a chance to visit because we were not inerested in them or we just never think to get around to it upon our visits. Also, we discuss the "one-and-done" attractions. These are those attractions that we have gone on once without feeling the need to repeat that experience again. For the Magic Our Way segment, we feature a piece of music arranged by New Orleanian, Kevin Caparotta. His arrangement of Jingle Bells can be heard performed by the Orlando-based vocal quartet, Return 2 Zero. Known by their Disney name, Four for a Dollar, Return 2 Zero used to be part of the preshow at the Beauty and the Beast Stage Show at Disney's Hollywood Studios, could have been be found in the Streets of America during the Osborne Spectacle of Dancing Lights, and were performers at Sea World Orlando. 

Again, if you enjoy our show. please rate and leave us feedback in iTunes and using whatever social media you're into, let your friends know that you are listening to our show. You can also follow us on Twitter, Keek, and Facebook (@magicourway). If you have any comments or suggestions or if you just want to say "hi," please feel free to shoot us an email at magicourway@gmail.com.
