Hey Disney fam! Welcome to Episode #31. I hope everyone is doing great and enjoying a little family time inside during this craziness. There is some good news in all this: Disney decided to release the movie Frozen 2 on Disney Plus THREE MONTHS EARLY! How awesome is that?! To celebrate and make a night out of it, my wife and I are going to create a DIY Night with Frozen 2 on Disney+ with Olaf and Kristoff shaped Kraft Mac n Cheese, watch Anna and Elsa (and #Samantha?) in the incredible musical sequel on Disney+, and go through our own Frozen 2 art book. It's gonna be great. We also have Sven and Olaf toy collectibles to keep us company (and focused on our crafting).

Hey there Disney family, A more somber mood today with the mass cancellations and closures due to coronavirus. It's got everybody a little on the nervous side, so I wanted to focus today's episode on that entirely to keep people up to date on everything. Today, March 12th, Disneyland announced it will close for only the 4th time in its storied and illustrious history. The other times were 9/11, '94 Northridge earthquake, and '63 to mourn the loss of JFK. Beginning March 14th (in 2 days from today as of this recording), Disneyland and California Adventure will be closed through the end of the month. Hotels will remain open until the 16h. If you need to contact Disney, call them to cancel or reschedule at 714-520-5050. And don't worry, they will work with you. I've dealt with their customer service before, and they're great. People just may need to be a little more patient than usual with the higher call volume that I'm sure they're getting at the moment. As promised, here is the Pixar Soul Trailer link: https://youtu.be/xOsLIiBStEs. That's all for today guys. Stay safe and sanitized out there! ❤️, Neal www.disfordisney.com
Hey Disney fam! ✨ Hope you're staying well and washing hands regularly! Today, we have a special treat... Not only is this episode a spoiler-free review of Onward (Pixar's latest and greatest), but we also have a special guest. We're joined today by my wonderful and amazing wife, Amanda. She and I saw Onward last night and just couldn't wait to tell y'all about it. Rest assured, we don't really talk plot points outside of stuff that's in the trailer (link here). One thing we do talk about is the credits song, which is by Brandi Carlisle and totally catchy. Listen/Watch the official lyrics music video here on YouTube. Thanks, everybody! See you next time!

Hey Disney fam! Coming off yesterday's review and reaction to the Rise of the Resistance ride, I wanted to address a question I've been seeing A LOT of lately about The Child (or Baby Yoda) from The Mandalorian: Who is Baby Yoda (actually)? In other words, we know that The Child is a lot like the original Yoda, but is he actually the OG Yoda or is he someone else entirely? What is Baby Yoda's name? Who really is Baby Yoda in Mandalorian? What do we know, and what do we not know about The Mandalorian's Baby Yoda? And, of course, this wouldn't be a Star Wars episode without some crazy speculation. So, we're going to dip into one of the wildest fan theories out there and see if it holds any weight. See more here: www.disfordisney.com. Don't forget to rate and review! Have a magical day! May the Force be with you, always!
Hey Disney Fam! I hope you're having an amazing day. Today is exciting because I get to tell you all about the incredible new ride at the Disney theme parks: Rise of the Resistance. First Half of the Episode: We go through the morning leading up to the ride and what that whole experience was like, including the boarding group insanity. Spoiler alert: We had to get up at 4:30am. I haven't seen the world at that hour in literally YEARS. Hopefully it's years before I have to see it that early again... Second Half of the Episode: This is where I walk you through the whole entire ride, from the queue all the way to the (almost) end. Summary of the whole episode in hashtags: #RiseoftheResistance. #ForLife. Ride-Through on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0HRyP2UUzY. (Not affiliate with me, just a cool video!). See more at www.disfordisney.com. Have a magical day and may the Force be with you, always!
Hey Disney fam! 1. Today, we learned that Disney/Pixar's Onward will feature an animated short before it begins...and it will star...The Simpsons! I don't know about you, but that's pretty wild to me. Basically, a series that has made fun of Disney in the past, like a lot - and is now owned by Disney - will play before the latest major Disney release in theaters. Crazy times we live in, y'all! 2. While not exactly new news, we also know now that Onward will also feature the first openly LGBTQ animated character in a Pixar film. Live-action films - Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and Beauty and the Beast, to name two - have had characters on the queer spectrum. But, this is the first animated Pixar character to be openly gay. I, for one, think this is awesome. Equally should be everywhere. 3. And lastly, this week a Jungle Cruise tour boat went for the full experience...when it sunk into the water for real. Twitter video here. That's all for today. Check out www.disfordisney.com for all the latest news and updates! Have a magical day!
Hey Disney fam! SO MUCH happening today in the Wide World of Disney! Let's get right into it... #1: Walt Disney World tells its employees to stay home?! (Coronavirus. Everything's fine.) #2: Disney and Marvel fully embrace The Simpsons with an Avengers crossover episode, and I CANNOT WAIT FOR IT. (March 1st on FOX) EARLY ACCESS TO SIMPSONS EPISODE IMAGES HERE: http://bit.ly/SpoilerBoy. #3: FAKE MEAT EVERYWHERE. But in a good way! Disney teams up with Impossible Foods to bring vegetarian "meat" to its parks. (Disney World, Disneyland, and even on its Disney Cruise Lines.) #4: Indiana Jones 5!!!!! I just felt like it needed 5 exclamation marks. What will the fifth installment be like without Spielberg or Lucas? (Fan fiction, anybody?) That's everything for today! I'll see you next time! *****Don't forget to rate and subscribe!***** Thanks for listening and have a magical day!
Hey Disney fam! We got some crazy BREAKING NEWS yesterday *after* I'd already recorded the day's podcast. Couldn't they have let me know!? ;) But seriously, here's the scoop: Bob Iger, CEO of The Walt Disney Company, stepped down effective immediately. Bob Chapek stepped in to replace him. This is only February of 2020. And it's already wild. Much to everyone's relief, Iger will not be retiring right away. Iger will stay on as Executive Chairman of TWDC and lead the board as well as creative efforts at the company through 2021. This will give Chapek time to learn the ropes of being CEO of Disney, as well as Iger some time to really focus on the "creative engines", as he called them during an interview on CNBC yesterday.
