  • DD 21 Anxiety and Disney Parks

    Anxiety. It's paralyzing.

    If you don't have anxiety, you've probably never experienced the invisible walls closing in on you, your heart beating so fast you think you may pass out, the world spinning, or knowing there is no "fight" - only "flight".

    Anxiety isn't fun and it can range from mild episodes to a severe diagnosis. So what happens when you have an anxiety attack at the Happiest Place on Earth?

    Al and Andee discuss what anxiety can be and how to prepare for panic attacks when visiting Disney Parks. Listen in for tips on planning or where to go if you are stuck with the feeling of no way out.

    Do you suffer from anxiety? How do you get through your Disney day? Let us know in the comments below or find us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Don't forget to leave a review wherever you go to for podcast listening. "C" ya real soon

  • DD 20 Disney Vacation Club Revisited

    Andee was wrong.

    This is not surprising. But she was wrong to a whole bunch of people and now she apologizes.

    There was a time, just a few months ago, when Andee may have steered you away from buying into the Disney Vacation Club. My, how quickly times change.

    Listen to the podcast. Call Andee a hypocrite. And then look at these photos we promised we'd post.

  • DD 13 Disney Trivia - The Rematch

    As most of you have heard, when Al and Andee first met, they challenged each other to a Disney Trivia Contest to see who, in fact, was the bigger fan. (Al won. We won't talk about that.)

    Now, thanks to the HQ Trivia app - the duo was ready for a rematch. It wasn't pretty. Tune in to see who beat whom. (Andee will go on record saying - you REALLY need practice with HQ before putting everything on the line.)
