  • 110 MagicBand+ at Disneyland, Wakanda Forever

    Al went to Disneyland and all he got was this lousy MagicBand+. Ok, maybe the band wasn't lousy, but the benefits were! While Walt Disney World has had the infrastructure for adding "+" features, Disneyland is brand new to the MagicBand game. Was it worth it?

    Wakanda Forever is out! Have you seen it? Did it meet your expectations? Al and Andee have different points of view for this one. Al talks about what it means to be a Black man watching the superheroes (and anti-heroes) in the newest Marvel flick.

    Rotten Tomatoes listed their rankings of all Marvel movies. Do you agree Wakanda Forever should have landed where it did on this site? MCU Tomatometer

  • 108 The Right Gear for a Disney Park

    How much stuff do you take for your day in a Disney Park? Are you loaded with family paraphernalia? Or are you minimalist and then wishing you brought that "one" thing?

    Andee's husband, Edd, has been trying to perfect the right amount of Disney Day gear for the last 30 years. From wallets, to water, to diaper bags, to ibuprofen, he may have come close to finding the right clothing, bag, and shoes to get through the vacation.

    Check out what he found. Did he miss anything? Did you learn something new?

  • 106 D23Expo Part 1

    We made it to the 2022 #d23expo and we have a LOT to share. Sure you saw the big reveals in other places, but Al and Andee dive deep into the experience. What was it like to actually be there?

    From the reveals to the panels to the people to the atmosphere, we've got stuff to share. So much, in fact, that it will take 2 episodes to do it! By the time you're done with both, we hope you'll be ready to go with us in 2024! Did you go to D23Expo this year? If not, is it something you'd do in the future?

  • 105 Disney College Program Drop Off Week

    What do you know about the Disney College Program? This wonderful opportunity for students in a paid internship role lets them work hard and play hard. However, once a student is accepted, it's hard to know what to expect during that first week between check in and orientation.

    Andee's youngest, Annika, is following in her older sister's footsteps and joined the Mouse for a semester of Cast Member life. Hear the differences between what it looks like now compared to 3 years ago. No two personalities are alike and Andee's daughters had very different experiences when living accross the country.

    Do you know someone in the DCP? Did you do the program yourself?

  • 104 Taking Children with Special Needs to Disney

    Stacey Graves is the mother of five, her youngest born with Down Syndrome. Before Ashlynn was born, the Graves visited Disneyland and Walt Disney World often. How did things change with Ashlynn as part of the family?

    Learn about what Disney life is like going a little slower and taking advantage of the Disability Access Service (DAS) Pass.

    Stacey gives great advice and tips about Special Needs Magic. Sometimes, pixie dust is going on vacation to a place where "different" can take a back seat and every kid (and adult) feels special.

    Have you traveled to Disney with a special needs child or friend? Were you able to see a more special kind of magic? Let us know! Find us on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Join in deeper discussion with the rest of the Duelists at Dueling Disney Community Duelists.

  • 103 Is Disney a Religion?

    The Orlando Weekley recently had a story telling the tale of a wedding where the couple decided to put their budget toward a visit from Mickey and Minnie rather than feeding their guests.

    The twitter post from which the article originated caused an uproar and Al and Andee had to get in their two cents. Is Disney a Religion? Andee shares where she thinks it may be but Al thinks Disney worship leaves out one key componant.

    Join the conversation! Listen in as the pair discuss experiences they've had at Disney that were just like religious experiences. Then chime in yourself!

  • 102 Sick? Disney to the Rescue!

    Well, it finally happened. Andee caught the COVID 19 virus. It's been a rough couple of weeks (but not deadly, thank you, vaccines). Thank goodness for Disney+ and lots of Disney comfort recipies.
