EPCODA

We have a lot to learn about pirates. The EPCODA crew takes a quick intergalactic detour to talk about Skeleton Crew, the latest Disney+ Star Wars series. Jim and Chris share what they enjoyed about this fun, 80s-evoking adventure series.

"Please step carefully on the moving platform." The EPCODA crew takes a wild ride on one of the more seemingly mild attractions in Tomorrowland. Join us as we talk about the Distory behind the PeopleMover, get sidetracked into Liam trying to stump the others in Winnie the Pooh trivia, and explain why this attraction--yes, the PeopleMover--is one of our favorites in the Magic Kingdom.

It's a Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow! The EPCODA crew kicks off 2025 and Tomorrowland Month with a look at Walt Disney's classic attraction Carousel of Progress. We'll take you on a trip from the 1964 New York World's Fair to (possible?) future as we look at what this ride has been and could be. We're talking animatronics, time jumps, laserdiscs, uncles in bathtubs, proposals for new Disney resorts, and so much more on this week's EPCODA!

The EPCODA crew wraps up this last episode of 2024 by looking back on our favorite memories, Disney and otherwise, from the past year. And we discuss what we are looking forward to in 2025. Thanks for joining us in this past year and we look forward to another great year of sharing EPCODA with you!

"You guys give up? Or are you thirsty for more?" It's part 2 of our festive look at the 1990 film Home Alone. Join Jim, Liam, Shari, Robin, Chris, and Asher as they dive even further into the mayhem of the McCallister family saga. They will talk about John Williams and the sequels, they imagine potential Disney attractions, and everyone gives their EPCODA score to this Christmas cinematic classic. All this and more on this week's second EPCODA!

Keep the change, ya filthy animal! It is Christmas time and we have gathered the family around to discuss the 1990 Holiday classic Home Alone. We are joined this week by guest co-hosts Robin and Shari Hunt as we dive into whether this is now a Christmas movie, how bad are the McCallisters as parents, our favorite traps, and much, much more! There is so much more, in fact, that we had to split this up into two episodes. So grab the disturbing surplus of mannequins in the attic, your life-size Michael Jordan cutout, and let's have a party!

To infinity...and beyond! The EPCODA crew launches themselves into Tomorrowland as they try to save the galaxy from the threat of the Evil Emperor Zurg. Join Jim and Chris as they talk about the attractions that proceeded this laser -laden gallery, discuss the many different names Disney has given this ride internationally, and try to come up with another Disney character that could anchor this attraction. All of this plus we give a preview of next week's Christmas episode!

Can we get a "Chee-hoo"? EPCODA goes to the movies this week as we look at the blockbuster tsunami that is Moana 2. We ended up recording this episode a little bit differently due to school, but tune as Jim, Liam, and Chris share their thoughts on their favorite new characters, songs, and wonder how Pua has survived among Moana's people for so long.

"It's a pod of laughter, a pod of tears" (okay the second part isn't true). The EPCODA crew continues their journey through the Magic Kingdom with a stop at the classic it's a small world. They will take you on a journey from the 1964 World's Fair to Anaheim, Orlando, and beyond. Jim, Liam, and Chris compare the east and west coast versions of the Happiest Cruise That Ever Sailed and talk through their very different opinions of this attraction. All and more on this week's (second) EPCODA!

It's called "A Salute to All Disney, but Mostly the Muppets." Jim and Chris (with a surprise appearance from E.A.) break down last week's big announcement involving Hollywood Studios, Monsters Inc., and the Muppets. They briefly touch on their excitement about Monstropolis before talking about their sadness over losing(?) MuppetVision 3D and how pumped they are about the Muppets taking over Rock 'N' Roller Coaster.
