We're embracing our inner evil and assembling our ultimate Disney Villain Dream Teams! It's a snake-style draft where strategy, sass, and sinister laughs collide as we each pick five iconic foes from across the Disney universe.Here's how it works: we each draft two animated villains, one Pixar villain, one live-action villain, and one bonus wildcard who can come from any corner of the leftover baddies. Once a villain's been chosen, they're gone for good — no repeats allowed!Expect passionate defenses, dramatic alliances, and plenty of over-the-top reasoning as we crown our team leaders and debate who's most likely to stab someone in the back (literally or metaphorically). From Maleficent's poise to Hades' one-liners and Thanos' snap-happy attitude, every choice reveals who we think reigns supreme in the world of Disney darkness.So grab your poison apple, cue up your evil laugh, and join us for a fiendishly fun episode that proves villains really do have more fun. It's Halloween on Main Street Magic — and today, evil's never looked so good.

We're taking our taste buds on a weekend adventure around Walt Disney World — from resort bites and zero-proof sips to full-on feasts and sweet endings. We kicked things off Thursday at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside, grabbing a bite before heading to Disney Springs for an evening of food and fun. Summer House on the Lake's zero-proof cocktails, like the Pineapple Kick and Sparkling Rosé Lemonade, are perfect examples of how non-alcoholic doesn't have to mean boring, although this trip the pizza did not quite hit the mark. From there, we couldn't resist a stop at Gideon's Bakehouse, where we tried seasonal sweets like the Bride of Frankenstein Cookie, the Banana Bread Chocolate Chip Cookie, and the PB & Jelly Cake.Friday's lineup was a true flavor rollercoaster. Between lemon pepper chicken tenders at Magic Kingdom and a trip off-property for Benihana's, our taste buds covered just about every texture and temperature possible. Saturday brought one of our favorite types of Disney days — eat, explore, repeat. From Karamel Küche's Caramel Gingerbread Cookie Sandwich to the hearty rolls at Ale & Compass, smoky brisket from The Polite Pig, and Indian-inspired flavors at EET by Maneet Chauhan, the variety was endless. Sunday wrapped things up on the sweetest note possible — cookies from Summer House, a relaxed meal at The Boathouse, and a festive finale at Scat Cat's Café with Ghoulish Beignets and an Agave Garden mocktail that proved Disney's zero-proof game is getting strong.From sugar highs to savory standouts, this weekend reminded us why Disney dining never gets old — there's always something new to taste, try, and talk about on Main Street Magic.

We're talking about something maybe every Disney fan should try at least once — visiting Walt Disney World solo. Whether you're a frequent park hopper, a first-timer craving some quiet time, or someone just curious about going it alone, we're diving into the perks and pitfalls of taking on Disney as a one-person party.We break down what makes a solo trip surprisingly magical — and occasionally a little awkward. There's the undeniable freedom to do what you want, from rope-dropping your favorite ride to napping mid-afternoon without guilt. You can go when you want, skip the group chats and calendar juggling, and let spontaneity be your guide. Want to hit every EPCOT festival booth? Go for it. Want to spend two hours just people-watching on Main Street with a Mickey pretzel? Absolutely your call.We'll also explore practical perks like saving money — fewer tickets, fewer meals, fewer souvenir “Can you get me this?” requests — and the all-powerful Single Rider superpower. From Expedition Everest to Test Track to Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, being a party of one can mean cutting wait times in half. Even dining can become a breeze when you're the dream guest for last-minute lounge seating or bar-top bites.Of course, it's not all Dole Whips and fireworks. We'll be honest about the lonely moments — the times you wish you had someone beside you to laugh with, share a dessert, or snap that perfect castle photo. Still, for many, the solo Disney trip becomes a form of self-care, reflection, and rediscovery.So grab your MagicBand, pack your confidence, and join us as we explore what it really means to do Disney alone.

Send us a textWhat happens when a bright, berry-forward cocktail meets a Mission Impossible daydream? We start with Enzo's Rum Punch from Enzo's Hideaway—orange, pineapple, cherry, and a pop of raspberry liqueur—and talk about why this mix cuts through the usual mango-passion fruit haze of theme park drinks. It's the kind of sip that tastes like vacation without feeling like a sugar rinse, and we share our easy home riff, garnish mishap and all. From there we drift into the memories that make flavors stick: an unplanned beer at just the right time, small pauses before big rides, and how atmosphere rewires your palate.Then we pull the pin on a purely comedic thought experiment: could Ethan Hunt “hide” overnight in a Disney park? We hammer the disclaimer—don't do this, ever—because security, cameras, and common sense exist for a reason. With that boundary set, we play it for laughs: a four-phase “Operation Overnight Epcot” involving a ghillie suit, strategic benches, and a dramatic pre-dawn escape worthy of a spy montage. We riff on ridiculous ideas for Disneyland, DCA, Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot, and Hollywood Studios, all while reminding you that fantasy stays fun when it respects reality. It's theme park humor with guardrails, and the jokes land because the rules matter.Along the way, we circle a simple takeaway: novelty keeps the day fresh. Whether it's choosing a cocktail with berry-led complexity, finding a quiet spot for a cold ale, or humoring a big what-if that everyone agrees is pretend, contrast is what makes the magic pop. Hit play for a bright drink breakdown, a friendly nudge toward better beverage choices at Disney Springs, and a gleefully over-the-top spy parody that never crosses the line.

From the moment we stepped through the fog and heard that “Boo to You” parade music drifting down Main Street, we knew we were in for a night packed with tricks, treats, and a whole lot of fun.But first, we tried the return of Salt & Straw's Tacolate (yes, a chocolate taco filled with cinnamon-ancho ice cream!) and every spooky limited time treat from Everglazed, including the Nutella Boston Scream, Haunted Hour, and Spooky Tombstone, and we even grabbed the limited-edition Chai Sugar Showgirl Cupcake from Sprinkles — a Taylor-inspired treat that might just steal the show.Then on to MNSSHP, where we break down everything you need to know before heading to the party yourself — from ticket details and arrival times to the best tips to help you make the most of your evening. We share when to grab your wristbands, how to beat the candy lines, and which characters you'll want to prioritize early before their queues fill up. And of course, we talk all about the incredible entertainment lineup — from the Not-So-Spooky Spectacular fireworks hosted by Jack Skellington, to the Boo-To-You Parade (complete with the Headless Horseman), and the always entertaining Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular with the Sanderson Sisters.We also talk costume comfort tips (Florida heat, anyone?), and give our best advice for making the most of those precious five hours of Halloween magic. Grab your candy bag and your Mickey ears — it's time to Boo-to-You right along with us!

The whole crew is back together—Remy, Jen, Mike, and Nicole—for another lively round of theme park conversations, history, food, and Disney fun.The show kicks off with a fun **vacation planning challenge** where Remy gave Jen, Mike, and Nicole several Disney vacation tiers to choose from: Budget, Moderate, Deluxe, and of course, the ultimate VIP experience. Each host weighed in on what their trip would look like for a 5-day Disney getaway, breaking down what you'd spend depending on the level of luxury you want out of your visit. From value-minded travelers to those who dream of five-star perks, the team compared what's realistic and what's over the top when it comes to planning a Disney trip.Next up, Remy guided everyone through **The Latest Theme Park Updates.** Among the highlights: Loungefly backpacks have officially climbed to $90, sparking the crew's reactions on whether these stylish park essentials are still worth the splurge. Plus, Jen shared which upcoming Florida seasonal event she's most excited to check out this year, giving listeners ideas for fun outings outside of the parks.In **This Week in Disney History**, the Roundtable paused to celebrate two of the most important anniversaries in Walt Disney World history: the grand openings of both **Magic Kingdom** and **EPCOT.** The team reflected on what these parks have meant to generations of visitors and how they continue to define Disney magic today.For this week's **Ride of the Week**, Remy dove deep into the history of **Disney's Pleasure Island**, the nighttime entertainment district that became a legend among Disney fans. Not only did he cover fascinating facts about its clubs and atmosphere, but he also shared his personal connection—memories of performing live at the iconic Jazz Club with his dad and his band, Groove Logic. It's a nostalgic trip back to when Pleasure Island was the place to be after the parks closed.Hungry? You'll want to tune in for **Mike's Munchies**, where the Foodie King himself took us to **The Boathouse at Disney Springs.** Mike walked through the menu highlights, from appetizers to entrées, drinks, and desserts, while also giving a taste of the waterfront dining experience that makes The Boathouse a must-visit for Disney Springs guests. And as always, Remy calculated the grand total for one person to give listeners a real-world look at what dining there will cost you.Finally, the episode wraps up with **Getting Nerdy with Nicole,** where our resident science geek breaks down the fascinating world of **theme park ride restraints.** Nicole explained how these safety systems are engineered to keep guests secure while still allowing for the thrills and excitement of modern attractions. From lap bars to over-the-shoulder harnesses, she explained why different rides employ different types of restraints and how these designs are crucial to the overall ride experience.From budgeting a dream Disney trip to delving into park history, exploring Disney Springs dining, and uncovering the science behind making rides possible, this episode is a jam-packed mix of knowledge, fun, nostalgia, and laughs.

We're recording poolside at Disney's brand-new tower at the Polynesian Village Resort to talk all about the best Disney staycation resorts across several categories. Most people think of Walt Disney World as a place where you have to be in the parks from sunrise to fireworks, but we believe some of the very best Disney vacations happen when you never even step foot inside a park.For us, a Disney staycation is all about slowing down, relaxing, and enjoying everything the resorts have to offer. These aren't just hotels — they're destinations on their own. We're talking pools that feel like mini waterparks, restaurants that rival anything in Orlando, lounges with unbeatable theming, and hidden corners where you can kick back and unwind. Each resort has its own atmosphere, and some truly transport you to another world.In this episode, we're breaking it all down across several categories — from best pools and dining to most relaxing resorts, family favorites, and even a few hidden gems that often get overlooked. Whether you're planning your very first no-parks Disney getaway or you just want to know which resorts we think make for the perfect staycation, we've got you covered.

It's a battle of beaches and bridges, towers and tropical villages, as we break down each resort across seven key categories to help you decide which one is right for your next Walt Disney World stay.First, we introduce both contenders. Caribbean Beach — Disney's very first moderate resort — brings that bright, beachy island energy, complete with a Skyliner hub, colorful villages, and family-friendly vibes. Meanwhile, Coronado Springs enters the ring with Spanish and Southwest-inspired architecture, top-notch dining, and the sleek, deluxe-style Gran Destino Tower, offering business-class comfort without the deluxe price tag.We go round by round through theming, rooms, dining, transportation, recreation, value, and even listener input, using your votes to help crown a winner.
