Podketeers Network - Disney-inspired podcasts about art, music, food, tech, and more!

In this episode we try something completely different for us! We hope you all like it!

We had the pleasure of sitting down to chat with Brian Crosby who is the Creative Director for Themed Entertainment at Marvel! Brian talks about growing up as an artist, interning at WDI (Walt Disney Imagineering) and how he set himself apart in order to try to get a job and eventually working at Marvel.

This week AJ and VJ (DisneyFor2) take on co-hosting duties and about their recent trip to Walt Disney World, Coco and the controversy that the new Frozen short 'Olaf's Frozen Adventure' is causing. We also hear from our friend Angela (aka Dislights) about heading to Downtown Disney for the recent Toys For Tots toy drive put on by Disney's VoluntEars.

This week Melissa joins us again to talk about Heyzen's thoughts on Coco (trying to stay as spoiler free as possible), Star Wars, feisty Porgs, Javier visiting Disneyland and doing something we never expected him to do!

We gathered after the Foolish Mortals art show to talk about the show itself, Bob Gurr, California Adventure, marionettes at Disneyland Paris, and more!

This week we talk to one of the proprietors of Trader Sam's Coffee Company (a company that makes flavored coffee themed after Disneyland attractions), Javier tells us how he celebrated his birthday and Disney wants to take you back in time with a new experience called Disneyland After Dark in 2018.

Gavin saves Heyzen this week and this episode happened! Pixar Pier, Marvel, and more!

We welcome back Gavin as we talk about new game addictions, Javier's trip to the WB Studio lot for Halloween, the new 4 diamond hotel coming to the Disneyland resort and we answer the question: what exactly is a Churkey leg?

Javier is back this week and so is Melissa. We talk Dodgers in the World Series, Queen Mary's Dark Harbor doesn't scare Javier, and paranormal experiences at home and inside the Haunted Mansion!

Ep174: Look at the lights!

Our good friend Angela joined us this week to help with the co-hosting duties! We mentioned in the episode that she recently took a trip to the Walt Disney Family Museum for the first time. Check out her vlog below!

During the episode Angela talks about what she saw when the stage that was last used for the Mad Tea Party was used was broken down. She described something having to do with water. Did you remember or were you able to guess?

The Mickey Mouse fountain was located in front of the Monsters, Inc. attraction. Do you remember seeing this?

The Disney company is working on bringing new Marvel experiences to Disney California Adventure (or... should we just start calling it Disney's Adventure Park?). After all, Bob Chapek said so at the last D23 Expo. This might help explain why that Avengers hatch was put in place next to Mission: Breakout. Recently a new patent was awarded to the Disney company for a pendulum like ride system. In the patent itself, there is mentioned on swinging like :

"...experience similar to what it would feel like to be with Tarzan or a similar character swinging between trees of a jungle on a vine or with Spider-Man or a similar character swinging on webs between buildings as you move down streets of a city..."

Although it's unclear if that is a literal description of what the new ride system will be used for, we're excited to be getting a new thrill ride at DCA! Check out the images from the patent below:
