Josh and Dale discuss all sides of the argument for and against this new trend as well as ideas that Disney could use to balance their act.

Mike and Dave from the Radio Harambe podcast join Josh this week to discuss the changing vibe of Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom park. With the additions of nighttime entertainment this year and next year's addition of an Avatar themed land, it seems like the emphasis on animals is being pushed to the side. The guys look at how the animals are necessary for the park and how Disney can make the effort to market and establish the connection with nature and animals and park guests.

Dave Tuppers joins Josh this week to talk about Aulani, a resort he loves and lives close to in Hawaii as well as the future of Hotel Only resorts in the Disney company. It seems like Disney is spending money left and right to pop up new theme parks worldwide but what about spending less money to add more hotel only resorts? Josh and Dave come up with theories and ideas for these types of resorts and what makes Aulani and others like it a good place to shell out the cash to stay there.

Angie and Josh talk about what's gone down this month in the Disney realm including Daredevil season 2 hitting Netflix, the new mobile game "Magic Kingdoms", Indiana Jones 5 announcements, and Storymaker added to Disney World with personalized greetings on the Small World attraction.

Josh sat down to talk with Peter Alden about his new album titled "Kingdom Classics". The album is all Disney covers with a 1950s Rock and Roll twist. Normally Pete performs as Elvis or covers other early rock and roll songs around the Florida area. Now he is branching out with this all-Disney album. So what did he have to say about Disney, his Elvis persona, the making of the new album, and more. Be sure to check out the show notes as well over at www.ModernMouseRadio.com

This week Angie and Josh talk all things Disney in the news. Something mysterious is happening at the old Carousel of Progress theater in Disneyland's Tomorrowland as some of the Marvel superheroes who were meeting there are now moving over to California Adventure with no news on what's happening in the building. We also go in depth on Disney's latest movie, Zootopia. Plus we talk Animal Kingdom, Disney Springs, Cars Land, Disney Cruise Line, and more! See the show notes at www.ModernMouseRadio.com

Use the hashtag #MMR100 to keep the celebration alive. Josh is joined by Keith Gluck and James Carter to talk about Disney's most controversial film, Song of the South. They analyze the film and the components that make this film unacceptable, even at the time of it's release. We talk what could possibly better the film and compare it to other films with racism or slavery. The film currently sits locked away inside the Disney vault and hasn't had an official release since 1986 but will we eventually see it again or is it a lost cause for good reason? Join the conversation on our blog, Facebook, Twitter, or any other platforms which we always give out at the end of the show.
