Podcasts about Splash Mountain

It's an epic week in the Disney universe, and This Week at Walt Disney World with Sam and Greg has everything you need to stay in the loop. As Universal's new Epic Universe continues to generate buzz, Disneyland takes center stage with the kickoff of its 70th Anniversary celebration. But in true chaotic fashion, Stitch crashes Disneyland 70 in a way only he can. This week's video episode dives into all the madness. Stitch Steals the Spotlight at Disneyland No one expected the 70th Anniversary celebration at Disneyland to be calm—but Stitch made sure of that! With surprise appearances and playful chaos, he brought the perfect touch of unpredictability to the park's big milestone. From a hot air balloon sighting to uninvited antics, it's the Stitch we all love. Mickey Hits the F1 Track Meanwhile, Mickey Mouse is shifting gears—literally. He's racing into the global spotlight by debuting his Formula One-inspired look. Whether it's a nod to upcoming events or a new collaboration, Mickey in racing gear is the talk of the parks. Could this hint at something bigger for Disney and F1? Broadway Magic and Disney+ Frozen fans, rejoice! Disney just announced that Frozen on Broadway is coming to Disney+—June 20, 2025.  Bringing the theatrical magic of Arendelle into your living room. Sam and Greg break down the announcement and what it means for Disney's Broadway strategy going forward. Villains Take the Stage We also get a sneak peek at the upcoming stage show Villains: Unhappily Ever After, opening soon at Disney's Hollywood Studios. The preview images are spectacular, with show-stopping designs that bring your favorite baddies to life. From Cruella to Maleficent, this summer's going to get wicked.  Deep in the shadows of Sunset Boulevard, inside Sunset Showcase, the all-new stage show “Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After” is set to debut on May 27, 2025, at Disney's Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World Resort. (Omark Reyes, photographers)[/caption] DAS Updates and Sweet Surprises This week's video covers updates to the DAS (Disability Access Service) system—something every park guest should know about. Plus, want free chocolate at Disney Springs? Sam has the tip you need. Summer Fun & a Look Back Meanwhile, Sam rewinds to vintage Disney magic—remember when Regis flew in “Ear Force One”? Or when Family Ties' Scott Valentine brought peak ‘80s energy to Splash Mountain? You'll find both in this nostalgic throwback. Inside the $19 Million Disney Mansion Auction Finally, we take a break from the parks for a quick real estate detour. There's still time to bid on the $19 million Disney-themed mansion in Utah! This over-the-top property has everything from a Star Wars tunnel to a Cars-inspired racetrack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TpfSBIC8b8&t  

Send us a textStep into the spooky side of Disney as we raise our Coney Negronis and dive deep into the most ghoulishly delightful events on both coasts. Having braved torrential Florida downpours at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and researched the increasingly popular Oogie Boogie Bash, we're sharing everything you need to know before booking your Halloween Disney adventure.Our Mickey's Not-So-Scary experience at Magic Kingdom was unforgettable—even with rain so heavy it created rivers on walkways! We discovered the perfect rainy-night hack: washcloths in shoes to absorb moisture, and the undeniable value of both ponchos AND umbrellas for those notorious sideways Florida storms. Disney made it right with a complimentary Park Hopper pass, proving that even at their spookiest, the parks still deliver on magic.Dressed as Mike and Sully from Monsters Inc., we experienced firsthand how costumes enhance the celebration. Cast members saluted us, the Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor interactive show acknowledged our presence, and we collected enough candy to last months. The late-night advantage can't be overstated—when families with young children depart around 9pm (especially at Disneyland), you might find yourself enjoying multiple consecutive rides on Splash Mountain with no wait!The Oogie Boogie Bash at California Adventure sounds particularly compelling with its interactive treat trails featuring villains who engage directly with guests, the atmospheric Villain's Grove walkthrough, and the delightfully sinister Frightfully Fun Parade. While the food offerings at both events left something to be desired, the entertainment, character interactions, and dramatically reduced wait times make these events worth every penny of their $119-$199 price tags.With Oogie Boogie Bash tickets going on sale soon (31 dates starting August 17th this year!), now's the time to decide which coast will host your Disney Halloween adventure. Take our advice: if weather is a concern, California's your best bet—but wherever you celebrate, these parties deliver a frightfully fun experience that regular park days simply can't match. Ready to make your spooky Disney dreams come true? These events sell out fast, so start planning now!Here's who we are and what is in store for you

In this episode of Hangin' at the Hangar Bar – A Disney Adults Podcast, Scott and Candice dive into the fascinating world of Disney park attractions and explore how they've changed over the years. From beloved classics to innovative reimaginings, they break down what makes these rides so memorable and why updates can spark both excitement and nostalgia. Pirates of the Caribbean: Originally opened in 1967, this iconic ride has seen updates that include the addition of Captain Jack Sparrow and the fan-favorite character Redd. Scott and Candice discuss how these changes shape the ride's story and whether they maintain its original spirit. Haunted Mansion: Known for its eerie charm and humor, the Haunted Mansion continues to thrill guests. Scott and Candice talk about seasonal overlays like the Nightmare Before Christmas edition, and debate whether these add extra magic or if the classic version should stand alone. Splash Mountain to Tiana's Bayou Adventure: With Splash Mountain's re-theming to The Princess and the Frog, Scott and Candice share their excitement for Tiana's story and discuss the cultural significance of this change. Tower of Terror to Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: Breakout! (Disneyland): The eerie Twilight Zone theme was replaced with an upbeat Marvel storyline. Tune in to hear Scott and Candice's take on how this dramatic shift in tone impacts the thrill of the experience. EPCOT's Transformation: Originally focused on showcasing technology and culture, EPCOT's Future World has now been split into themed neighborhoods with new attractions like Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and Remy's Ratatouille Adventure. Scott and Candice discuss whether this shift balances Walt Disney's educational vision with storytelling magic. Maelstrom to Frozen Ever After: The Norway Pavilion's original attraction, Maelstrom, gave way to the popular Frozen franchise. The hosts discuss the trade-off between authentic cultural representation and the allure of Disney IP. Test Track: From its early days as a test-drive experience to its high-tech makeover, Scott and Candice debate the pros and cons of Test Track's modern look and whether it lost some of its original charm. Spaceship Earth: This iconic EPCOT attraction has seen subtle updates over the years. Scott and Candice talk about their love for the journey through human history and what future updates could mean for the ride's legacy. Carousel of Progress: A symbol of Walt's vision, Carousel of Progress has been largely untouched but still captures the evolution of technology. The hosts share their thoughts on whether this attraction should stay preserved as-is or could benefit from a fresh look. Listener Takeaway: This episode is perfect for Disney enthusiasts who love exploring the past, present, and future of the parks. Join us as we consider what it means for a ride to become a “classic” and how evolving attractions impact our Disney experiences.

Hey there, and a very happy Saturday! This is your Disney News for Saturday, October 26th, 2024. Thank you for joining me today; I promise to bring a bit of Disney magic to your day! - Disneyland Paris announces "Casa," a new Italian restaurant in Disney Village, offering a taste of Italy in a warm atmosphere. - "Avatar: Fire and Ash" set for release on December 19, 2025, introduces the Ash People, expanding the Avatar saga with James Cameron directing. - Disney's new Premier Pass for Lightning Lane costs $400/day at Disneyland, with varying prices at Disney World, available only to guests in certain high-end resorts. - Disney removes "Song of the South" references and transforms Splash Mountain to Tiana's Bayou Adventure, aligning attractions with contemporary values. Thanks for tuning in, and I hope you have a magical day. Remember to check in tomorrow for more Disney updates.

Kim recently took her two girls to Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando for a mother-daughter getaway. Hear more about her trip, learn some strategies for using Lightning Lane, new rides, new theme parks coming, and comparisons between the parks. It was hot, humid, and rainy in the afternoons, but they still had a fun time exploring all the parks. Luckily, Universal Orlando has more indoor rides that help on rainy days. Updates from Walt Disney World Tron in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom - it is like riding a motorcycle but on a roller coaster track. The ride is fabulous but really short. Splash Mountain is now Tiana's Bayou Adventure - this is a two-by-two flume-like ride that has been redesigned. Disney now has Lightning Lane Multi Experience and Lightning Lane Single Experience. With the Multi Experience, it works on multiple rides and as soon as you tap into one ride, you can request the next Lightning Lane. You want to purchase and prebook your first ride in advance. Single Experience is where you can buy a Lightning Lane time slot for individual rides like Tron or Rise of the Resistance. Disney's Lightning Lane experience is better than Universal's Express Pass because they load people from that lane faster. Disney has also changed their rules around their Disability Access service and made it much harder to obtain a pass. Keep this in mind if you have children with special needs and have used that service in the past. Tip: If you want to stay at one of the Deluxe hotels on property, you can stay by renting Disney Vacation Club points. (Riviera has Skyliner access) See Kim's article on renting and using DVC points. Disney is building a new ride in the Avengers Campus and they are getting rid of the Tom Sawyer Island and Riverboat in Magic Kingdom to create Cars Land. Updates from Universal Orlando Note: Universal Orlando hosted Kim's family for this part of the trip. Kim stayed at the Loews Sapphire Falls, which is a Moderate property and does not include the Express Passes. The Sapphire Falls is within walking distance to the parks and guests get one hour early entry. Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure still has very long lines. The nice thing about the Universal Express Passes don't require you to book any times online, so it is less stressful to manage. However, many people have these passes because they are staying at the premium hotels and the lanes load slowly so sometimes you don't save a lot of time (sometimes only about 10 minutes of time savings). There is a Universal Express Unlimited Pass that lets you ride a ride in the Express pass lane as much as you would like, without limits. Universal Orlando is building a whole new theme park in 2025 called Epic Universe. It is going to be further away from CityWalk and the other parks or hotels. It will also have another portion of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Ministry of Magic. There will also be two premium hotels and a How to Train Your Dragon land.   Other Episodes You May Enjoy Disney Vacation Club tips Choosing a Disney World hotel Walt Disney World tips Universal Orlando's Volcano Bay Universal Orlando insider tips

Join Erik and Tage this week as they are joined by Shannon and Ryan as they discuss times they overracted to a change in the parks, times they have had the oppertunity to dress up in the parks, what they think Disney should do to make Star Wars and Marvel like they were before, and Disney things they think are a bargain. Support the podcast by going to https://www.thehubcrawl.com/support. Question 1: When were you overreacting and afraid of change? Think of the prequel Star Wars trilogy. Think of the change to Splash Mountain. Think of anything else that changed in a park anywhere. Question 2: Have you ever been able to dress up while in the park? And what did you dress as? Think Disney bounding, Halloween, RunDisney.  Question 3: What do you think Disney should do to make Marvel and Star Wars like it was before? Question 4: Everyone is always worried about how much Disney costs. Which, to be fair, isn't entirely unfair. However, I think there are some slept on “bang for buck” things. Whats something disney related that you think is a “bargin”? Could be an experience, a piece of merch, etc. Bonus Question: Reverse bucket list item: what is a Disney attraction, show, food, event, or park you have never experienced and don't want to?

The Idiots are splashing into a fresh reimagining of "Tiana's Bayou Adventure" at Magic Kingdom and soon-to-open in Disneyland. Drawing inspiration from our own June trip down the bayou, we're unveiling a reimagined storyline that sidesteps spoilers and avoids direct comparisons to the current ride. Stephen leads the discussion, proposing an alternative concept that digs a little deeper into the world of The Princess and the Frog, focusing on an untold chapter that bridges the gap between Tiana and Naveen's wedding and the grand opening of Tiana's Palace. This reimagined attraction offers a fresh perspective, embracing the spirit of The Princess and the Frog while introducing new, magical moments for guests to experience.Project Manager: StephenSend us a Text Message.Don't forget to check us out on Instagram and our new website!

The folks over on Scraping the Vault reached out to us, saying they had the perfect idea for a show. Ignoring that email for several weeks, we eventually learned about one of the most magical television specials to ever run ... Ernest Goes To Splash Mountain. It only ever aired once, in August of 1989, and was never seen again, only to be kept alive on YouTube, like any good piece of cultural ... culture. So, Jimmy, Dan, and Audrey from Scraping the Vault came on to walk us through this little-known Ernest content, and to shed some light on the very first person EVER to ride Splash Mountain. ---------------- Support the show!

This week we had a chance to visit and experience Tiana's Bayou Adventure in a set of five visits. Our previous podcast was an in-depth look at why Splash Mountain ended and why Tiana's replaced it. This podcast goes into big details as to how this entire experience plays out from arrival, through exterior/interior queues, the entire ride, and afterwards. This is a major spoiler alert, and we think you should listen. Most will only have one opportunity to visit in their upcoming visit. The logs move down the river quickly, and you will miss the chance to see all of these details come to life. This expose helps you be able to capture it all. Accompanying this podcast is an extensive set of photos and videos that support these details. We also have a complete grid which details a scene-by-scene comparison of what Splash Mountain at Magic Kingdom had compared to what Tiana's now shares. Join us for the details of Tiana's Bayou Adventure. __________________________________________________ My new book, A Century of Powerful Disney Insights, Volume I 1923-1973, The Walt & Roy Disney Years is available!  Also, check out my two of my other books, The Wonderful World of Customer Service at Disney and Disney, Leadership and You.

Hop aboard, Disney fans! Join Trent and Jeni as they dish out all the magical details from their exclusive Disney Vacation Club preview of Tiana's Bayou Adventure at Magic Kingdom. From the immersive queue to the heartwarming finale, we're taking you on a virtual journey through this brand-new attraction that's replacing Splash Mountain. In this episode, we'll chat about:

With previews well underway on Tiana's Bayou Adventure at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World, and before I spend the time giving insight to what works and doesn't work on this attraction, now is the time to understand why this attraction has been built, and why it has replaced the enormously beloved Splash Mountain. Critics abound and some have a point to be made. But it makes no sense to criticize if you don't understand the reason and the why. We will look at how we got to this point, which began back park-wide decades ago and has had its own storied past, for both guests and Cast Members. In the end we'll see that there is not only a need to create stories that others can see themselves in, but to know that there were some legitimate operational issues that needed to be addressed. All of this comes together in one pivotal moment in time and has now resulted in Tiana's Bayou Adventure. __________________________________________________ My new book, A Century of Powerful Disney Insights, Volume I 1923-1973, The Walt & Roy Disney Years is available!  Also, check out my two of my other books, The Wonderful World of Customer Service at Disney and Disney, Leadership and You.
