Disney very recently made some changes to their Disability Access Services program – often referred to as a DAS pass at Disney World and Disney Land. We're going to talk about why this happened, what it means for you, and what else is going on at Disney. Note: this interview was taped BEFORE the changes took place. More about Len Testa's Touring Plans here More about the DAS changes here We're also spending some time talking about a new service for doctors called Glucosepath and about a new surprising study about cortisol and diabetes. I'll also explain how these two guests can talk about all of these issues.. Len Testa is co host of the fabulous Disney Dish podcast and the creator of Touring Plans the app and service of The Unofficial Guides to Walt Disney World, Disneyland and Disney Cruise Line. Testa is all about the math of theme parks – his guides are there to maximize the magic as he says – to make your waits shorter and save money – and it's all based on calculations from his team. He teamed up with endocrinologist Dr. Bradly Eilerman to create GlucosePATH which uses computer science and clinical data to evaluate every possible treatment option, using data from the patient, FDA, and peer-reviewed journals, in just a few seconds. Dr. Eilerman also talks about the Catalyst study which looks at people with type 2 diabetes and measures cortisol.  This podcast is not intended as medical advice.

The Mall of America, in Bloomington, Minnesota, opened on 11th August, 1992, with more than 10,000 employees, 330 stores, and a Camp Snoopy theme park. With a gross area of 4.8 million square feet, the mall remains the largest in the United States; its roughly 40 million annual visitors equal to around eight times the population of the state of Minnesota. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly reveal how the mall is heated, despite having no central heating system; explain how the modern American shopping mall was, bizarrely, derived from Victor Gruen's socialist utopia; and consider how it overcame the ‘Megadeath' label to become one of America's top tourist attractions…  Further Reading: • ‘Why You Should Visit Mall of America for Its Experiences Over Shopping' (Business Insider, 2022): https://www.businessinsider.com/photos-mall-of-america-experiences-better-than-shopping-minneapolis-2022-4?r=US&IR=T#away-from-the-big-attractions-that-make-it-unique-mall-of-america-just-felt-like-any-upscale-mall-35 • ‘The Unofficial Guide to Mall of America - By Beth Blair' (Unofficial Guides, 2016): https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/The_Unofficial_Guide_to_Mall_of_America/U4wWDgAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=mall+of+america&pg=PA12&printsec=frontcover • ‘Mall of America Preview' (WCCO 4 News, 1992): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PZcP4A5CkQ #80s #US #Business #Fashion #Architecture Love the show?

Here on Easy Diz It, We share ideas on staying happy and healthy in the parks. And we have some fun with news games and trivia. This week we discussed among other things, vacationing solo in theme parks. Highly Suspect Headlines (Disney News Game) Disneyland's Adventureland Treehouse re-theme revealed as the Encanto Treehouse This was rumoured for a while as they have been working on it since 2021 Was Swiss Family originally, then re-themed to Tarzan in New theme is inspired by the original Swiss Family Treehouse, but will be based on a new family. Expanded ground level attractions kitchen, dining room, and Fathers art studio, that features sketches of the rooms above Doctor Who coming to Disney+ Beginning in 2023, Disney will begin airing new Doctor Who episodes Tenant is coming back! Small World in Disneyland adds a mobility impaired character Appeared when reopening with holiday overlay "The dolls are participating inclusively alongside their non-disabled peers, which is something we want to see more of, instead of being depicted as limited or incapable because of a disability," Houghton Three tips from a nerd focuses on traveling solo Save money- You can also save money by using the single rider lines instead of buying whatever skip the line product is available. At Disney World, there are only 4 attractions that have single rider: Millennium Falcon, Expedition Everest, Test Track, Rock n Roller coaster. Universal Studios has a ton of single riders. And most other theme parks have them too. Single rider lines are usually best when the ride vehicles seat 4 or 6 to a row. Two by two roller coaster usually aren't that good. Expedition Everest being a huge exception. Avoid hassle- Wait less for food and drink by sitting at the bar. Toothsome's Chocolate Emporium was my latest example. Fantastic restaurant, tough to get a seat. Bar seating was available on a Saturday night! Have more fun- Strike up conversations in line. If you're like me, fun can go either way for this type of thing. Social initiations can be a lot of work and anxiety producing. So here are some things I do. Opening line: Have you been on this yet? If the answer is brief the conversation is over. If the answer is enthusiastic either way, a follow up might be: Did you like it? or Have you heard anything about it? At this point you've done your work for an initiation and the ball is in their court if they want to keep the conversation going. Document the line experience. If you don't want to talk to people, or you are socially drained: Pretend you are a theme park journalist or vlogger. It gives you something to do! A stumps J We talked about the Keys to the Kingdom Tour at Magic Kingdom. At $114 and 5 hours, this tour is somehow pricey but still feels like a good deal! ____________________________________ Support the podcast by purchasing Unofficial Guides through this link: https://amzn.to/3rLVVmy Or booking your travel with Justin Website: easydizit.com Email: easydizitpodcast@gmail.com Instagram: instagram.com/easydizit Facebook: fb.com/JustinwithUTMT

Travel - Just do itTalking with Lea Lane is like having coffee or a glass of wine with a dear friend.  Interesting, educational and just plain fun. Over the years, Lea's been to more than 100 countries. During the pandemic she started her award-winning podcast, Places I Remember with Lea Lane.    Lea Lane has written more than a thousand travel pieces and columns, and contributed to Fodor's guidebooks and Unofficial Guides. She's authored eight books, including award-winners Solo Traveler,  Travel Tales I Couldn't Put in the Guidebooks, and Places I Remember: Tales, Truths, Delights from 100 Countries.  I know that Lea has so many stories to share - which means I need to do a follow-up interview or meet her somewhere on the road.  I've got so many questions about how she navigated life as a wife, mother, communications professional, writer and now starting a podcast and Youtube channel......as she turns 80 years old!   I love this. Habits that work for Lea:  Work in the earlier part of the dayBalance your work and life (her computer is always nearby!)Stay curious Quotes:  People around the world are the same and can be a little different too.... we all love and care but we have little cultural differences.   Some of us have more luck than others, we were born in the right time and the right place.  So many times I have seen people who have been through many wars and many famines and this sort of thing and they're just like I am, they're  just not lucky and it makes you a better person if you realize this.   Prioritize what you want to do.  If you're comfortable, do it.  Realize that time is short - so find a way to get out and go.  Find someone to travel with or travel on your own. Places I Remember with Lea Lane - Podcast Lea's Blog - Places I RememberLea Lane's column in ForbesBio InfoNEW COURSE:Tiny Habits for Entrepreneurs Includes CliftonStrenths Top 5 Assessment + Tiny Habits MethodSupport the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/storiesofchange)
