In this episode, Chris Cochrane guest-hosts for his brother Ray and devotes the whole show to one event: Disney’s D23 2026 fan convention in Anaheim. Friday night delivered Marvel’s new X-Men cast, Adam Driver as Mister Sinister, a fresh Avengers: Doomsday trailer, and a release date for Frozen 3. Saturday turned to the parks, with Villains Land, an Indiana Jones dark ride, the long-awaited Expedition Everest yeti repair, and a Monsters Inc land opening in 2027. – Want to start a podcast?

Instead of six or eight unrelated stories, the entire episode covers Disney’s D23 convention, which he compares to Apple’s WWDC. For newcomers, he notes that D23 is Disney’s official fan club, named for the company’s founding year of 1923. This year’s event ran two nights at the Honda Center: Friday for movies and television, Saturday for the theme parks. Marvel Finally Casts the X-Men Friday’s headline was the X-Men. The Associated Press put the crowd near 12,000, and Marvel Studios used that stage to name its rebooted team. Christopher Abbott plays Professor Charles Xavier, Inde Navarrette plays Rogue, and Maya Boyd plays Storm. Adam Driver rounds out the group as the villain Mister Sinister. Meanwhile, Samara Weaving, Kit Connor, and Sadie Sink were already known as Emma Frost, Cyclops, and Jean Grey. Jake Schreier directs, and the film arrives May 5, 2028. Chris calls the lineup spot-on casting. He singles out Weaving as a perfect match for the comics, and he points out that Sink already appeared as Jean Grey in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Navarrette is the least established name, coming off a breakout role in an indie horror film. Boyd, meanwhile, was the name he knew least, with what he believes is a Broadway background. Above all, Chris hopes Marvel does the team justice, and he recommends the animated revival X-Men ’97 on Disney+ as the best place to start. Frozen 3 Gets a Date and a Chaotic Reveal Frozen 3 lands November 24, 2027. That is the Wednesday of Thanksgiving week, the same slot the first two films used. The story centers on Anna and Kristoff’s wedding, which a new villain, an evil Ice Queen, disrupts. Jennifer Lee returns to direct with Trent Correy, and the full voice cast is back. However, the reveal itself fell apart. Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel performed a darker arrangement of “Frozen Heart.” Meanwhile, the audio failed, the video failed, and a set of doors never opened. Menzel asked the crowd whether they should try it again, and Bell simply narrated everything that was supposed to happen. Afterward, Josh Gad sang “Oooh, Samantha,” a new love song for Olaf. Chris is here for it, since Olaf is one of the franchise’s best comic characters. Pixar, Disney Animation, and the Rest of Friday Night Pixar chief Pete Docter laid out a packed slate. Incredibles 3 hits summer 2028 and follows Violet and Dash sneaking out at night to fight crime. Chris hopes that finally shows a grown-up Jack-Jack. Coco 2 follows in November 2029 with Benjamin Bratt returning as Ernesto de la Cruz. That has fans puzzling over how a villain already in the Land of the Dead comes back. Additionally, Pixar showed an original called Ghost Market and a Venice-set cat film called Gatto. On the Disney Animation side, Zootopia 3 is confirmed. The live-action Tangled arrives March 31, 2028 with Kathryn Hahn as Mother Gothel. Chris considers that casting perfect after her turn in Agatha All Along. A live-action Lilo & Stitch sequel, a new Simpsons movie, a Bluey movie, and a Kingdom Hearts anime series round out the list. For Star Wars fans, Ahsoka returns January 20, 2027. Chris also offers a hot take: he prefers Rogue One to the entire sequel trilogy. Consequently, he welcomes original stories like Ryan Gosling’s upcoming Starfighter. Adam Driver Is Mister Sinister Driver appeared by video rather than in person. He told the crowd that he and Kevin Feige had talked for years about joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Then he announced he would play Magneto. After a long pause, he corrected himself to Nathaniel Milbury, which is Mister Sinister’s human alias. The gag landed because fans had floated Driver for Magneto for years. For anyone new to the comics, Chris explains that Mister Sinister is a geneticist obsessed with mutant DNA, a manipulator rather than a brawler. The cast met backstage only minutes earlier, so Chris is curious how their chemistry develops. Notably, Christopher Abbott previously worked with Driver on HBO’s Girls. The script comes from Beef creator Lee Sung Jin and The Bear co-showrunner Joanna Calo, two prestige-television names that have Chris excited. Why the X-Men Took Thirty Years to Reach the MCU A business story underlies the casting. In the 1990s, a financially struggling Marvel sold film rights to raise cash. Fox ended up with the X-Men and the Fantastic Four, and Sony took Spider-Man. As a result, Marvel Studios built its connected universe from 2008 onward without some of its most famous characters. The Hugh Jackman era of X-Men films belonged to Fox, with a separate continuity and no crossovers. That changed in 2019, when Disney closed its $71 billion purchase of 21st Century Fox’s film and television studio. Most coverage framed the deal as a streaming play, but it also brought the X-Men home. Chris sums it up neatly: Disney signed the paperwork in 2019, cast the film in 2026, and audiences see it in 2028. Ryan Gosling’s Starfighter, Ghost Rider, and VisionQuest Lucasfilm dated Star Wars: Starfighter for May 28, 2027. Gosling plays Kade Auberon, a pilot from the wrong side of the galaxy tied to the fastest starfighter ever built. Before he walked out, Disney played clips of him as a kid on The Mickey Mouse Club. Gosling said the company changed his life then and is changing it again now. He is also playing Ghost Rider in the Marvel universe. That thrills Chris, since Nicolas Cage last carried the character on the big screen. Meanwhile, the Disney+ series VisionQuest arrives October 14. Paul Bettany returns as Vision and James Spader as Ultron, and the trailer drops the two androids into oddly mundane human situations. Bettany joked that Vision has “rather inconveniently died several times.” Chris agrees the character has been through the wringer since WandaVision. The Avengers: Doomsday Trailer Avengers: Doomsday opens December 18, with Joe and Anthony Russo directing. Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, and Hayley Atwell introduced the new footage. It offers the clearest look yet at Downey as Doctor Doom, who fights off Thor and takes his hammer. Evans appears as Captain America holding a baby, and Ian McKellen shows up as a haggard, long-haired Magneto. One quieter shot has Doom staring at a portrait of a lost wife and child. That frames him as a grieving avenger rather than a world-ender. He also commands an army of comic-accurate Sentinels. The cast pulls from the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the legacy Fox X-Men, including Patrick Stewart. Hugh Jackman also appeared on screen to say he is willing to return as Wolverine, though that was not a confirmation. Chris, a self-described Marvel nerd, closes with a theory. He suspects the MCU’s Tony Stark was actually Victor von Doom, adopted by the Starks, which would explain the Downey casting. He also predicts the Fox-era X-Men die off in this film and that Thor may be the major casualty. If it happens, he wants credit for calling it.

Disney Parks Around the World Saturday’s Disney Experiences showcase covered parks, resorts, and cruise ships, with Neil Patrick Harris hosting. Hong Kong Disneyland gets an Avengers pavilion that reshapes its Stark Expo skyline. Shanghai Disneyland is building the first land devoted entirely to Spider-Man, complete with a new coaster. Since Spider-Man is his favorite hero, Chris hopes to visit once it opens. Closer to home, Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure is doubling in size with two rides opening in 2028. Avengers: Infinity Defense brings back Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, Chris Hemsworth, and Downey, while Stark Flight Lab adds Brie Larson. A Coco boat ride into the Land of the Dead is also coming, with no height requirement. Chris admits he prefers California Adventure to Disneyland because the rides are better. Overseas, Disneyland Paris will retire its Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain overlay at the end of 2027 and restore the original Jules Verne theme. Paris also gets the first ride ever based on The Lion King. Tokyo Disneyland adds Sugar Rush: Sweet Rescue, the first Wreck-It Ralph ride, plus a Space Mountain launch sequence designed with YouTuber Mark Rober. Finally, Disney Cruise Line announced three more ships, including the Disney Believe in 2027 and an entirely new class in 2029. Back in Anaheim, Tomorrowland is getting reimagined, which Chris welcomes because the land badly needs an update. The Magic Happens parade and the Remember Dreams Come True fireworks are both returning. For the tech crowd, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run now has a Fortnite crossover, where in-game missions unlock content on the real ride. Every New Walt Disney World Ride and Land Chris ranks the Florida parks Hollywood Studios first, then Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Magic Kingdom. Magic Kingdom leads the announcements with Villains Land, now the official name. It features a Maleficent coaster through an enchanted briar and a boat ride through the Evil Queen’s catacombs. Reporting puts its scale near Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and Glenn Close appeared in character as Cruella to announce it. Piston Peak, the Cars area replacing Tom Sawyer Island, adds two more rides, though their exact names remain unsettled. Additionally, the Carousel of Progress gets new scenes and a recast. Jamie Lee Curtis and Bryan Cranston will voice Mom and Dad starting late spring 2027. Chris, invoking Heisenberg, calls Cranston the GOAT. At Animal Kingdom, the Indiana Jones ride now has a name: Indiana Jones and the Myth of the Jade Serpent. It tells an original 1950 story inside a Maya temple, and Harrison Ford personally served as the physical model for the animatronic. Nearby, the Tropical Americas land brings Antonio’s Fiesta de Encanto, with more than fifty animal animatronics and no height requirement. Then comes the fix park regulars have wanted for years. The Expedition Everest yeti broke soon after the ride opened. Rather than fix it, Disney lit it with a strobe for over a decade, earning the nickname disco yeti. Now it is being repaired and returned to full motion. Chris rates Everest among his top five rides anywhere, and he suggests riding it before the fix so you can compare. Over at Epcot, Spaceship Earth gets its first major story rewrite in nearly twenty years, shifting from communication history to human connection. Dreamfinder also returns to Journey Into Imagination, and Disney Experiences chairman Thomas Mazloum introduced that news with two words: “we heard you.” Mazloum added that Disney has more projects underway than at any point in its history. After this rundown, Chris believes him. Monsters Inc Land Opens in 2027 Monstropolis begins opening at Hollywood Studios in early 2027, but in stages. The headline door coaster will not be ready on day one. It is the first suspended coaster in any Disney park. It also uses Disney’s first vertical lift, hauling riders about forty feet straight up before launching them into the door vault. Instead, the land opens with the Glob Theater’s “Welcome to Monstropolis” show and Harryhausen’s, a working sushi restaurant lifted from the first film. The stage show features an original song by Randy Newman, his first ever written for a theme park attraction. Chris also notes that the restaurant name honors stop-motion legend Ray Harryhausen. Wrapping up, Chris names the X-Men casting and the Doomsday trailer as his favorite moments of the weekend. He hopes to cover more movie news on future shows, and he plugs Dune: Part Three, which also opens December 18. Chris signs off with the usual mentions: GNC Insider at geeknewscentral.com/insider, email at geeknews@gmail.com, the newsletter, and modern podcast apps at podcastapps.com.

The crew goes live and pivots from a "chill" private influencer party to the pure endurance test of a nine-and-a-half-hour tabletop tournament. Between Jeff navigating the "hostile" world of AI-generated set design and Coral's high-stakes "betrayal" on a Disney drop ride, this episode finds the humor in the chaos of a busy Los Angeles weekend. It's a mix of big wins, marathon gaming, and a crash course in why you should never trust your "bestie best" at a theme park. This Week's Insanity:Shawarma & Spectacle: The team recaps a private influencer event featuring hookahs, "sick rips," and Coral's first encounter with shawarma. The Lorcana Marathon: A tournament that lasted nearly ten hours in the warehouse, soundtracked by ragtime piano covers of Disney songs. FCBD Exclusive Tea: Jeff drops major news for Free Comic Book Day, announcing two exclusive Revenge Of covers: The Name She Lost: Inanna and Dungeon Crawler Carl. Production Stories: Jeff relives the "nightmare" of reality TV design, explaining how he turned an industry snub into a win by selling a prop, saved from destruction, back to a production company.Disney Day: Coral recounts her trip to California Adventure where she was "manipulated" into riding the Guardians of the Galaxy drop ride, resulting in genuine terror and "legs dangling in front of her head". Gay News: Celebrating Lesbian Visibility Week and tackling the "tough week" of breakups from Love on the Spectrum and pro soccer. Coral's Corner: A deep dive into Margot's Got Money Troubles, Michelle Pfeiffer's performance, and Nick Offerman's transformation into a "beef daddy". Loose, energetic, and slightly more professional than usual—this episode is a love letter to the endurance of the community and the ridiculousness of the entertainment industry.New episodes every week.Only at Revenge Of — where the shawarma is regional and the Plinko boards are a work in progress.

Send us Fan MailDisneyland at night, beers in California Adventure, and a brutally honest take on those tiny Food and Wine portions sets the tone right away: we're here to talk like real people, not polished characters. We kick things off with Suavecito love, shout out listeners around the world, then trade stories about ride energy, drink pacing, and the simple reality that a smooth scotch hits different than a harsh shot of cheap tequila. We even get into how to order it neat versus on the rocks if you're trying to enjoy the taste instead of chasing a headache.Then the conversation takes a sharp turn into culture and controversy. We react to a Caitlin Bennett clip that calls out protest “borders” on a so-called sanctuary campus, and we use that moment to dig into hypocrisy, public space, and why people get defensive when they're pressed with their own rules. From there, we lean into the kind of late-night curiosity our listeners love: a live flat earth poll, firmament talk, skepticism about NASA, satellites, and space travel, plus questions about why “official” images and narratives don't always feel consistent.We also touch everyday life and health, from rising water refill prices to claims about sunlight, vitamin D, sunscreen chemicals, and why men over 40 need to take heart health seriously. We close with a quick karma story, a Suavecito DHT blocker hair cream mention for hair loss concerns, and a surprise Remo pop-in near the end.If you like unscripted podcasts that mix humor, real-life stories, conspiracy talk, and health conversations, hit subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave us a review so more people can find the show.Suavecito All hair types and textures.

Did you know Disney almost turned Spaceship Earth into a golden roller coaster? Join Morgan and Jake on Neverland Navigation Radio as they take a deep dive into "Project Gemini," the canceled early-2000s overhaul that would have radically changed the front half of Epcot.In this episode, we explore the wild $500 million plans to transform Future World into "Discovery Land". We're talking a massive "Time Racers" coaster gutting Spaceship Earth , a Little Mermaid ride in the Living Seas , a suspended rainforest coaster at The Land pavilion , and a brand-new Junior Autopia right in front of Test Track!Why did this massive project get scrapped right before its planned 2006 opening? We break down the turbulent Michael Eisner era , the financial disaster of Disney's California Adventure , and what few pieces of Project Gemini actually survived to become part of the Epcot we know today (like Soarin'!). Plus, we compare these abandoned plans to Epcot's most recent "World Discovery, Celebration, and Nature" transformation.Planning a Disney trip? Morgan is a free-to-you travel agent!

In the 289th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave are back after a few weeks away!  Spring Break weeks have come and gone, including when Jenn went to Disneyland then returned home to Pittsburgh late Monday night, only for Dave to leave Birmingham early Tuesday morning for week in Disney World! First up, Buzz Lightyear has some soft openings, ready for next week's official reopening... Rafiki gets his name dropped in Animal Kingdom's Conversation Conservation Station... brand new ticket deals for Disney... and Crocs are getting into the headband game... Then, Jenn and Dave share their trip reports from the parks on each coast -- Jenn (with Travel Amanda) visiting Bluey's new show, hanging at Disneyland Hotel, enjoying California Adventure's Food & Wine, and soaking in the 70th anniversary before it disappears...  And Dave on his annual family trip, with all the dining, including Le Cellier and Sci Fi and Akershus, doing the Garden Graze at Flower & Garden Festival, and the kid's Meeting Princess stance.  And lamenting on Disney's poor Egg Display system this year.  It's a great time to visit either park!

After nearly a decade away, Rick returns to Disneyland and California Adventure with his family—almost to the exact week he last visited in 2016. In this solo episode, he reflects on growing up with Disney in the '90s, becoming a full-fledged Annual Pass Disney fanatic from 2008–2016, and what it felt like to walk back through the gates ten years later.From Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and Avengers Campus to Lightning Lanes, mobile ordering, merch disappointments, and the evolution of the Disney experience, Rick shares an honest, fun, and thoughtful perspective on what's changed—and what hasn't.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' post-Olympic return, Connor McDavid's latest 100-point season, the NHL Trade Deadline, line combinations, trade targets, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether Thursday's 8-1 win over L.A. helped everyone get over the 6-5 loss to the Ducks the night before. Aside from Rick feeling fine about both results, the rest of the boys were notably upset about the blown opportunity against Anaheim. That said, the Oilers are so inconsistent right now that it's hard to imagine how back-to-back games could end so differently. Shifting gears, the guys looked at Tristan Jarry's struggles between the pipes and how his first couple of months as an Oiler have been anything but uplifting. That led to a conversation about how Kris Knoblauch should handle his goaltending rotation. Should the Oilers lean on Connor Ingram in the short term as the starter while Jarry works his way back up to form? We also ran through some of the Edmonton-related rumours heading into the trade deadline and whether any names tied to the Oilers might make sense.Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week that was. With the 2025-26 season entering the stretch drive, the guys spent the bulk of the podcast moving through a range of topics, some related to the Oilers and others not, but that's the way things go on the Friday episode of ONR.00:00: Start3:00: delicious debate5:30: I didn't get too down/didn't get too up7:00: Jarry hasn't been good since injury 9:00: new team post olympics11:30: Jarry pull14:00 How do you treat the goalies21:00 Oilers got depth scoring22:45: Mang looks better26:30: Tenable 31:00: Rico needs to be better38:30 What to do with Nurse47:00 Betting talk51:00 ask the idiots52:00: favourite show as a child55:45: boldest TDL take57:00: Coffeys Focus48:30: ONR impersonation's1:00:00 Hot/Cold performers SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!

Tim and Audrey are back with the second half of their Disneyland weekend recap! They kick things off with some Disney news — Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue gets a closure reprieve until 2027, and what that might mean for Avatar Land. Then they dive into their California Adventure day, which happened to fall on the park's 25th anniversary AND Super Bowl Sunday (a combo they did not see coming). From commemorative maps and Animation Academy to a surprise Phineas & Ferb connection with the show's co-creator, the family packed a lot in. Plus: they witnessed the Super Bowl MVP cavalcade on Main Street, had a standout meal at Pym's Test Kitchen, and capped the trip with their very first character breakfast at Storytellers Café — and why they're making it a new tradition. As always, four kids, big feelings, and plenty of Disney magic (and chaos) along the way.I

We just got back from a packed Disneyland trip over Super Bowl weekend… and somehow ended up there for Disney California Adventure's 25th anniversary.In this episode, we break down:• The $5 million popcorn cart at Magic Kingdom• Staying at Pixar Place Hotel for the first time• Rope-dropping Indiana Jones and dominating Fantasyland• Why mobile ordering saved us HOURS on the 25th anniversary popcorn bucket• Getting absolutely drenched in the FRONT ROW of Tiana's Bayou Adventure• Letting our older boys babysit so we could ride together• Paint the Night vs. Disney World parades (yes… we said it

Chris and Tim come at you this week talking about all the trailers that came out during the Super Bowl and also add in the usual issues that we see each week at the parks. The guys also talk about the new epic popcorn bucket at Disney's California Adventure as well as all the other offerings they have in honor of DCA's 25th anniversary.

Today we are looking at 25 years of California Adventure and how the Disneyland Resort is celebrating this milestone.  From viral popcorn buckets, to new characters, and so much more, we are sharing memories, tips and special deals.

It's hard for even the most devout Disney Apologist to forgive what was the original Disney's California Adventure. With a troubled budget from the start, and perhaps the wrong theme for millions of people already living in California, this failed on so many levels when it came out the gate. It certainly didn't help that it was being built across arguably the greatest park ever built. And yet in the shadows of Disneyland, there is really something magical about Disney California Adventure and with time and investment, it has come around to being the 5th most popular theme park in North America, behind Magic Kingdom, Disneyland, Epcot & Disney's Hollywood Studios, and yet ahead of Disney's Animal Kingdom, and every Universal Busch Gardens, Sea World and Six Flags park in the country. It's been a long 25 years, but with big new attractions coming, Disney California Adventure stands to compete in big ways moving forward.

This week, Jeff and Julia (from the Pal Around Podcast) go back in time to 2001 and take a stroll through the opening days of Disney's California Adventure in celebration of its 25th anniversary. Listen to our memories, anecdotes, and a few rare sound bytes as we pay homage to Anaheim's second Disney gate. As a special bonus, we take a quick trip back to the 2013 PNW Mouse Meet to revisit a classic Mousetalgia interview with Imagineer Kevin Rafferty about his work developing Cars Land for DCA. All this - and much more!

Eureka! California Adventure has been around for 25 years, and it's going to be around for quite a few more. In its current state, it doesn't much represent the state of California, and it doesn't seem to be heading in that direction. From an Avengers Expansion already assembling, to an awkwardly placed Avatar experience, it's going every which way, further and further from its roots. It's here to stay though, so gather 'round the Pal-A-Round and chart a course for the future. Join Kirk & Freddy as they figure out which one of those dang characters is Coco on a forward-looking episode of Eureka!
