This week, a lot of updates to the resort, including fixing a popular missing effect, Madame Leota was almost swept away to somewhere beyond, After Dark Nites still have tickets, a pop-up mini golf experience is coming, a new treat at a smaller eatery, we talk about Disney's TWO private islands, and more! Please support the show if you can by going to https://www.dlweekly.net/support/. Check out all of our current partners and exclusive discounts at https://www.dlweekly.net/promos. News: With the upcoming 70th anniversary at Disneyland coming up fast, there has been some work to get the parks in tip-top shape. Last week, Rise of the Resistance in Star Wars Galaxy's Edge had the cannons fixed! This effect has not been working for the last year or more. Rumor online is that it was a programming issue that over the course of the day the movement got out of sync and caused the attraction to stop working. That has been corrected and the cannons appear to be back! – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2025/02/02/we-love-it-when-disney-listens-imagineers-finally-fixed-this-glaring-ride-problem/ There is quite a bit happening elsewhere in the resort as well. Over in Disney California Adventure, Elias & Co. on Buena Vista Street is behind scrim and scaffold, the Cozy Cone Motel in Cars Land is still working on the updates to the main office. The new seating area nearby has also partially gone back behind walls to add what looks like a shade covering to the spot. The Little Mermaid is still open, but getting an extended standby queue. Grizzly River Run is undergoing a major refurbishment, including work on the guard rails and some stonework. – https://www.micechat.com/408639-disneyland-update-end-of-the-line-blasts-from-the-past/ ver in Disneyland, more light poles are covered up around the resort to allow for maintenance. The Disneyland Monorail and Disneyland Railroad are closed until early March to work on new entrance gates for the Downtown Disney station of the Monorail, and the rest of the track replacement for the Disneyland Railroad. The Jolly Holiday and it's a small world are down for extended refurbishments. – https://www.micechat.com/408639-disneyland-update-end-of-the-line-blasts-from-the-past/ This coming weekend is the last chance to hop aboard the Red Car Trolley at Disney California Adventure. February 8th is the last day for the attraction which added a lot of kinetic movement and atmosphere to Buena Vista Street and Hollywood Boulevard. While you won't be able to ride the trolley anymore, one will be parked near the entrance to the park for photos. – https://www.micechat.com/408639-disneyland-update-end-of-the-line-blasts-from-the-past/ Madame Leota's Somewhere Beyond shop, which just opened last month had some flooding issues last week. The heavy rain flowed down the walkway to Bayou Country and right into the front door of the shop. The resort already has plans for work to be done with the path in front of the shop to correct this issue. The shop will remain open during this work, with entrance allowed by the Haunted Mansion exit. – https://www.micechat.com/408639-disneyland-update-end-of-the-line-blasts-from-the-past/ Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts Nite was hugely popular, but the other After Dark Nites still have tickets available. 90's Nite still has tickets for March 4th, and Star Wars Nite still has all dates available. If you are interested in attending either of these, check out the link in our show notes. – https://www.micechat.com/408639-disneyland-update-end-of-the-line-blasts-from-the-past/ https://disneyland.disney.go.com/admission/events/ A pop-up mini golf experience is coming to the Pixar Place Hotel. Pixar Putt, which was at the D23 Expo, and a season in Washington, D.C., and Long Beach, opens on February 7th at 3pm and will be at the hotel until June 1st. Tee times are every 30 minutes, with with discounts for hotel guests and Magic Keyholders. Prices range from $28-$33, plus a $2 per person service fee. Reservations are strongly encouraged. – https://www.pixarputt.com/ https://www.laughingplace.com/w/disney-parks/pixar-putt-disneyland/ One of the smaller places to pick up tasty treats has a new item on the menu. The Royal Street Veranda has added Baked Cheesy Biscuits, with an optional side of Cajun Cheese sauce. They are described as Cheeze-Its in biscuit form. The biscuits are made with sharp cheddar and cajun cheese, and are brushed with garlic butter. The sauce is not overly spicy and adds a sharper cheese flavor. The biscuits are $8.99, and the dipping sauce is $1.39. – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2025/01/27/review-id-like-to-thank-the-creator-of-this-new-disney-snack-for-making-me-believe-in-happiness-again/ SnackChat: Flo's V8 Cafe – https://disneyland.disney.go.com/dining/disney-california-adventure/flos-v8-cafe/menus/ Discussion Topic: Disney Islands with Teresa

It is the 325th episode of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast!  From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank each one of you who have downloaded or streamed this podcast. Your support means the world to me.  And to the incredible guests who have shared their stories, and the publicists and teams who have trusted my brand, I am truly grateful.  I am beyond thrilled to welcome one of my favorite Disney content creators, Drew the Disney Dude, as my guest for this monumental episode. His insights and passion for all things Disney are sure to make this a memorable conversation.  Drew Smith is an Orlando, Florida-based content creator. He specializes in creating content on Disney Parks, The Walt Disney Company, and more. He was born next to Disneyland Resort, and that's where his love for Disney began. Drew started creating content in 2017 on arcades and taught people how to win jackpots before moving to Orlando in 2018. He has since called the Walt Disney World Resort his second home.  On this episode of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Drew shared his favorite Disney Parks attraction, his take on the 2024 Disney D23 Expo's announcement regarding Villains Land, and whether these new additions could counter the Universal Orlando Resort's Epic Universe theme park.Let's connect on social media!
