This year’s event will feature Al broadcasting live from the Magic Kingdom, along with a former Disney Guest Relations Trainer who will be traveling the park and sharing little-known facts and secrets—all during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Viewers will even have the chance to interact live with the broadcast!

📺 The livestream will be available on Al’s YouTube channel, Kindred Souls of Brooklyn, on October 14, 2025, at 8 PM. Watch at: youtube.com/@KindredSoulsOfBrooklynSarasota

📢 Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls… and podcast listeners of all ages! Monorail Tales invites you to gather ‘round for a very special edition of 20 Questions: Which Ride or Attraction? Your host, Ric, will be guiding our contestants—Sheila, Steve, Bill, and Patrick—through a rollicking round of laughter, friendly jabs, and rules that may or may not stay the same from start to finish.

Along the way, Sheila will ask her questions a little… differently, Bill will question himself and still get things wrong, Steve will break into spontaneous impressions, and Patrick will keep the host on his toes with constant ribbing. And in true Disney spirit, everyone’s a winner… or in this case, no one is! Listen to find out why!

So keep your arms, hands, feet, and legs inside the podcast at all times, and get ready for a fast, funny, and completely unpredictable ride. We hope you enjoy the show! 🎢✨*

✨ To all who believe in the magic—this episode is for you. ✨

🎙️ Host Ric is joined by Sheila, Gary, and Bill as they each share what their perfect day would look like if they had the chance to spend it at Walt Disney World with none other than Walt Disney himself. 🧢🏰

But don’t expect a day of just chatting on a bench! 🪑 From soaring high above the world on Soarin’ 🪂, to sailing through Mexico on the Gran Fiesta Tour, to savoring a Dole Whip 🍍 and catching the juggler in Italy 🎪, these dream itineraries are filled with joy, movement, nostalgia, and—of course—a few surprises Walt never got to see. 🎆

Join us as we treat Walt to the Carousel of Progress 🔄, an African Safari 🐘🦒, a Grand Circle Tour of the Magic Kingdom 🚂, and that famous light shining bright in the firehouse 💡🚒. Along the way, he’ll dine at 50s Prime Time Café 🍽️ and Casey’s Corner 🌭, gaze at Salvador Dalí-inspired art at Coronado Springs 🎨, and glide across property via the Skyliner 🚡, Friendship Boats 🚤, and those iconic ferry boats ⛴️!

Would he be proud? We think so. 💖

🎙️ Join us for a magical recap with Sheila as good friend of the show Jill Bivins returns to the podcast along with her husband, Jordan, and their ten-year-old son, Colin, to share stories from their epic Disney vacation! From Early Entry rope drops to fireworks tears, Jill, Jordan, thrill-seeking son Colin, and new-to-Disney two-year-old son Owen, made memories across all four Walt Disney World parks—and then some! 

Highlights include surprise pixie dust in Adventureland, emotional first rides on Tower of Terror and Guardians of the Galaxy where Colin found his thrill ride "personality-ness” and for Owen, riding Dumbo for the first time with Jill, keeping up her family tradition. 

✨ Ride victories, anniversary dinners, toddler tantrums (looking at you, Owen 😅), and all the snacks and sweet moments in between— pool-hopping, crepes, and cookie breaks. There's laughter, a few tears, and a whole lot of Disney magic. 💫🍪🎢

👨‍👩‍👦 This episode is a whirlwind of fireworks, family firsts, and heartwarming growth. So grab your Mickey ears, settle in, and enjoy.
