💬 Topics & Tangents:  

1. If you haven’t been to a Disney theme park in the last year or two, Mickey has a different face now.  

2. The hippo and crocodile from “Fantasia” have names.  

3. Chuck McCann, the voice of Santa, was the Dreamfinder in the original Journey Into Imagination.  

4. A quick lesson on how time zones work.  

5. Putting someone’s name on Santa’s list makes it as absolute as the Goblet of Fire.  

6. The Grumpy Dog who keeps showing up only to get beverages spilled on him is the Stan Lee of the Mickey Mouse universe, which I only mention because we recorded this the day after Stan died.  

7. Between the Goofys and the Plutos of this universe, there are talking reindeer who can own pets.  

8. The Hidden Mickeys Podcast.
