MouseKast

We're back with our monthly game night! On this episode of MouseKast, gamemaster Matt leads us through some draft scenarios from new character meet-and-greets to new podcasts to new attractions based on movies that do not currently have an associated attraction. Come play along!

When hinges creak in doorless chambers... it means it's Halloween season! Chuck, Matt and Hawk join some other foolish mortals in the chat to talk all about Halloween Horror Nights at Universal, Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at Disney, Halloween Cruises on Disney Cruise Line and more! We're heading into the spooky season on MouseKast!

Open Mic Night is back on MouseKast! On this episode the listeners/viewers take the reigns as Chuck, Hawk, Meaghan and Matt share the conversation with our listeners/viewers. We talk about the first ever bar coming to the Magic Kingdom, and how this is another part of the evolution of Walt Disney's original vision for the parks. Our listeners also share their thoughts about the need for much more kindness in the parks as guests continue to demonstrate their own version of "theme park rage."

In late July, as part of the coverage of the 70th anniversary of Disneyland, Orange County Register writer Robert Niles published a commentary in which he shares his concerns about what Disney Parks may look like in 70 years from now (or if there will be any Disney parks in 70 years). Meaghan, Matt, Hawk and Chuck take a deep dive into this idea and share our thoughts about some of the issues theme park companies face. We're looking at what the future may hold - especially when it comes to the changing family dynamic on this episode of MouseKast!

Game night returns on MouseKast! On this episode, Chuck brings back a fan favorite -- 20 questions! Can Hawk and Matt and our guest, Mark, figure out the person, place or thing? Will the live viewers make the correct guess? Listen and play along -- see if you can figure it out!

If you've been anywhere on the East Coast lately, thermometers have been threatening to explode because it's so hot! So how can you best handle the heat while at the parks? Matt, Meaghan and Hawk talk with Chuck live from a toasty Magic Kingdom about some of the best ways to beat the heat – and – we have a special LIVE showing of the new nighttime parade, Disney Starlight, with an instant review afterward. It's a hot time with lots of magic on this edition of MouseKast!

You may have wondered why some Marvel characters aren't at Walt Disney World. That's because Universal still owns the east coast theme park rights to certain Marvel characters. On this episode of MouseKast, Chuck and Hawk consider what can Disney offer Universal to get full control of Marvel in the theme parks? What might Universal want? What about some collaborative efforts? We're lawyering up on this edition of MouseKast!

Open Mic Night returns on MouseKast! On this episode, our live viewers dictate the topics we discuss. On this Open Mic Night, we begin with the Liberty Belle's final run as construction begins on Piston Peak at the Magic Kingdom. We also talk about spaces and places at Walt Disney World we think need to be revitalized and some of our must-do traditions for a Disney trip. The viewers take control - on Open Mic Night here on MouseKast!

With the 4th of July coming up, we're taking a deep dive into fireworks and other nighttime events at Disney Parks. Special guest and pyrotechnical expert, Mark Jones, joins us to discuss some of the behind-the-scenes work that takes place at Disney to put on a nightly fireworks show. Plus, we talk about some of our favorite nighttime events and share some different places to view Magic Kingdom fireworks. We're lighting up the sky on this episode of MouseKast!

It's game night! On this episode we're playing "Would You Rather" Universal Studios vs. Walt Disney World edition!
