Mouse Minutes Podcast

This week on the Mouse Minutes Podcast, Whitney + Jordan head over to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort to grade a fan-favorite dining spot: Kona Café.

From the famous Tonga Toast to sushi, poke bowls, and other Polynesian-inspired flavors, Kona Café has long been a go-to for Disney foodies. But with so many dining options at Walt Disney World, does this tropical table-service restaurant still make the grade?

We’ll share our thoughts, our grades, and whether Kona Café deserves a spot on your next Disney dining reservation list.

Listen in and let us know: Is Kona Café a must-do meal or one you can skip at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort?

We’re making a splash on this week’s Mouse Minutes Podcast!

Whitney + Jordan are diving into H2O+, the iconic bath and body line that’s been pampering Disney Resort guests for years. You know the one — that signature scent that instantly transports you back to your last stay at Walt Disney World.

But is this fan-favorite truly magical… or just leaving you high and dry (and maybe a little itchy)? Join us as we give it our grades, share a few bubbly laughs, and decide if H2O+ is worth the hype — or better left down the drain.

This week on Mouse Minutes, we’re going under the sea — and under the spotlight!

Listen in as Whitney + Jordan dive into the newly-ish updated live stage show at Disney’s Hollywood Studios: The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure (aka The Little MAMA).

Is this refreshed production a fintastic must-see, or should it be left to swim with the fishes? We’re giving our grades, sharing our favorite (and not-so-favorite) moments, and asking the big question: If you only had one day at Hollywood Studios, would The Little MAMA make your must-do list?

Listen to this week's episode and and let us know what you think!

It’s time to trade your sneakers for swim goggles because this week, we’re wading into the waters of Fuentes del Morro, the main pool at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort. With fortress theming, water cannons, and a slide that’s actually worth the wait, this pool makes a splash for families and resort guests around the World. But is it enough to anchor your stay?

Listen in as Whitney + Jordan grade the vibes, the chaos, the chairs (yes, really), and whether this pirate-y pool lives up to the hype, or sinks under the weight of everyone’s wet MagicBands.

It’s sweet, it’s salty, it’s gooey, and it’s making waves in World Showcase.

This week on the Mouse Minutes Podcast, Whitney + Jordan dig into the Pretzel Bread Pudding from Sommerfest — the quick service spot tucked into the Germany Pavilion at EPCOT.

At just a few dollars, this snack is easy on the wallet… but is it worth your time (and stomach space) in one of Disney’s most food-packed parks?

Tune in for our grades, thoughts, and whether this creamy, cozy treat lives up to the growing hype. Have you tried it yet?

Lightsabers, drama, and a price tag that could fund a small rebellion.

This week on the Mouse Minutes Podcast, Whitney + Jordan are grading one of the galaxy’s most coveted souvenirs: custom-built lightsabers at Savi’s Workshop in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.

Is this experience truly Jedi-worthy, or just clever marketing wrapped in kyber crystal hype? Tune in before you drop some serious credits — and may the grades be with you.

Nothing says “Happy Birthday, America!” like an oversized-eared elephant flying through the sky!

This week on the Mouse Minutes Podcast, Whitney + Jordan take flight with Dumbo the Flying Elephant — one of Magic Kingdom’s beloved opening day attractions. It’s classic, it’s nostalgic, and it's still "spinny"... but is that enough to make it a must-ride?

Tune in for their reviews, their grades, and some high-flying fun — then let us know where Dumbo lands on your list!
