Disney fans rejoice! Listen as I chat with guest co-host about his recent visit to Disneyland After Dark: Throwback Nite. He has been to nearly every single Disneyland After Dark event, so he has a lot to compare it to. I was particularly interested in discussing with him a mind blowing character meet & greet that I never thought I'd see in a Disney park. It was shocking, but quite a thrill to see. We discuss that and everything else the event had to offer. Plus, we take a deeper dive into the Disneyland After Dark events as a whole. If you've ever considered attending a Disneyland After Dark event but weren't sure whether or not it's worth the hefty ticket price, you'll definitely want to hear all the pros and cons discussed in this episode to help you make a decision. That and so much more on this episode.

Disney fans rejoice! The Disney theme parks throw a lot of special after hours events. From holiday parties like Oogie Boogie Bash and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, to Disneyland After Dark Events, Disney Vacation Club Moonlight Magic, Disney After Hours, and so many more. But have you heard of the super exclusive Disney Service Celebration after hours event? Disney Service Celebration is only available to long time Cast Members and their guests. There's no price large enough to buy your way into this party. And based on everything that is part of the event, from an extraordinary amount of free food, to live entertainment everywhere, a special fireworks show, and so much more, this may just be the biggest party ever thrown in a Disney theme park. Listen as I discuss a full rundown of the Disney Service Celebration with a Cast Member who celebrated 10 years with the Walt Disney Company, along with his lucky guest.

Disney fans rejoice! On this episode, I'm chatting with Imagineer Joe Lanzisero who was the Creative Director for Mickey's Toontown when it opened 30 years ago in 1993. Listen as Joe discusses what a joy it was to build an entirely new land for Walt's original theme park. Plus, Joe chats about how a Winnie the Pooh attraction was being designed for Mickey's Toontown, how The Muppets were being considered to become part of the land, and the very simple reason as to why Mickey's Toontown was created in the first place. We discuss that and so much more, so buckle up and enjoy as we rewind the clock to 1993 to discuss all things Mickey's Toontown.
