Disney Hour Express

We know, we know...the podcast is a day behind. To make up for it, we've got all the info you need on delivery services when you're staying at the Walt Disney World Resort. We're looking at prices! We're looking at delivery windows! We're looking at it all, so you don't have to! Plus, we've got the first feedback from the new Disney Springs' drone show and we talk about this year's tribute store at Universal Orlando. Thanks for listening!

Links for the services we talked about in this episode:

This week, we talked about our Top 3 Disney World rides that need to be refurbished. It's not that we don't like them, but we think they could use some sprucing up. Did any of your faves make the list? We also talk about the drone show coming to Disney Springs and some impressions from strangers about DreamWorks Land in Universal Studios. Thanks for listening!

We had some breaking news on this week's episode! We have an opening date for Tiana's Bayou Adventure in Walt Disney World!!! The only people not happy about this are the producers of American Idol. It's also Halfway to Halloween, so we cover the new additions to Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. We're also talking Abe Lincoln and what was found below Universal Studios. Thanks for listening!

With us being a couple and another Star Wars Day just completed, we wanted to talk about the iconic love (or lack thereof) of Leia Organa and Han Solo. We wanted to take a closer look into the "I love you"/"I know" shirts we see couples wearing around the Disney Parks. Were Han and Leia in a healthy relationship? What other actresses were almost cast as our beloved Princess? Is there a difference between Carbonite and Kryptonite? Answers to all these questions and more lie ahead for you! Thanks for listening!

Hollywood Studios is turning 35 this week (meaning it's just figuring itself out and has a new air of confidence), so we thought we'd talk about its most iconic attraction, The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. We're plunging up and down this thrill ride to get you all the facts we can muster and we share our first times entering the 5th Dimension. Plus, we answered some listener questions. Will there be a new festival to cover the gap between Flower & Garden into Food & Wine? Do newly filed permits mean that Journey Into Imagination with Figment is closing??? Thanks for listening!

Almost as important as what you do in the parks, you have to know how to get there. This week, we talked about the iconic Disney Monorail. Could you imagine a world without the Monorail? I don't want to and ,thankfully, you could ride them in 3 different Disney Parks. Can you name all three? And no, you're not allowed to Google it. On top of the transpo talk, we've got news and a lot of Abbie submissions for DHE listener names. Thanks for listening!

Has it been a year already? It's time for the 2nd Annual Park Planning Extravaganza. We're giving you a behind the scenes look into how we're planning our family Disney trip. Be ready for insights. Be ready for audio eye rolls. Just be ready to be hungry with all the dining reservation talk. Thanks for listening!

Don't forget to rate and review us wherever you get your podcasts!

You might love it! You might not even like it! You might not care either way! In classic DHE style, we covered the news happening round the parks! We're racing over to the temporary closure of Test Track...into something greater? We're taking guesses as to what expansion could be happening at the Magic Kingdom. What's that? You wanted to know the deets on the just announced Halloween Horror Nights 33? We got them! Much to Rob's chagrin, we talk about what's happening over in the Disneyland exclusive Star Wars celebration known as "Season of the Force". Thanks for listening!

With the summer months (and the heat) fast approaching, we wanted to talk about how you can beat the heat during your trip to Walt Disney World. We give some tips and share what are the coolest rides and attractions are to get out of the sun. Plus, Abbie talks about the return of Pin Trading to WDW and some news from the swamp about Tiana's Bayou Adventure. Thanks for listening!

We usually go on and on about the rides, but this week's episode is all about the shows you'll find in the parks. There are too many to give them all the time they deserve, so Abbie and I each picked three to cover. We share some facts, tell you whether these shows are kid appropriate, and if you should use a Genie + Lightning Lane on them. We also begin to delve deep into the weeds to try to figure out a name for our listeners. The Podcastees? The DHE-ers? (pronounced "deers") I see a poll in our future. Regardless of your collective names, thanks for listening!
