EarzUp!

Of all the hidden things and little details that Disneyland puts into its parks, none is more underrated - or more ignored - than its music.  Everywhere you go in the park,various styles of music playing through hidden speakers subtly reinforces the fact that you are actually in a different location.  A different time.  Maybe even a different person.

The music of Disneyland is not often something we think about when we go to the park. After doing this show and really listening to the soundtrack of Disneyland, we realized just how important it is to the different sections and attractions.  More to the point, just hearing the music of Disneyland instantly transported us back to the park, strolling down Main Street and off into imagination.

So come along as we take a trip into the park with the music of Disneyland.  Plus, we have some listeners call in and play Guess That Attraction!

We'd bet you have Cars Land music in your head now, huh?

The closest Disneyland Gumbo Recipe you will ever find!

Disneyland is known for many things, but not too many that are culinary-related, save for heartburn, maybe.   According to the experts at EarzUp! podcast, the gumbo at Disneyland is quite possibly the best food offering you can find there.  No, Churros don't count.

In case you haven't had it, Gumbo is a thicker version of a stew, with loads of vegetables and garlic and whatever else you want to put in there.  Originating in southern Louisiana, it is the perfect food to eat after a meander through New Orleans Square, and makes a nice end-cap to a Pirates of the Caribbean ride.  Take all that goodness and serve it up in a sourdough bread bowl and you have a mighty fine way to take a break and people watch.

Making gumbo at home is fairly simple, but what makes it "Disneyland Official"?  The recipe, of course!  In this episode, we give you the exact Disneyland gumbo recipe used in the park, and it is very, very simple to make.  It's also really authentic, which is a bonus.  Listen carefully to the ingredients, then make a batch up in your house and tell us how it came out!

We dive into the history of Tomorrowland so you don't have to!

Our first show back after an unexpected break finds us reviewing the history of Tomorrowland.  Too often we wander the parks and forget that some of these buildings have been in place since the beginning.  Well forget no more - Terrence, Taren, and JP will take you through a few of the forgotten rides in Tomorrowland and what replaced them.  We go through some feedback (not from someone called "Greg", either) as well, and in our Tip of the Show we explore the rumor of the two identical wooden Indian statues in Disneyland, and drill down into the semantics of the word "identical".

Of course, we have a bit of rambling to get through before we jump into the History of Tomorrowland - after all, we've been off the air for a few weeks!   So not only will you get to hear all about Rocket to the Moon in the History of Tomorrowland segment, but you get to hear all about how Terrence puts on a zippy sweatshirt ... only on EarzUp!

Remember when the promise of plentiful food was a good thing?

We take the Welcome to Disneyland tour and let you know all about it

Disneyland offers several tours of varying complexity and interest levels.  Seeing as we are in the business of knowing everything about the park, it is our duty to take each of these tours and report back to you on the content, and if they are worth the time (and cash!)

A nice little gift after the Welcome to Disneyland tour

 

The first tour we took was the Welcome To Disneyland tour.  This is one that is more geared for folks who have never been to the park before in their lives, and gives you a pretty extensive 2.5 hour walk about DCA and Disneyland.  At the end you get a pin and some Fastpasses, and your day is fairly planned out for you.  Was this tour worth the $25 price tag?  Find out!
