Tall Guy Talks Travel with Rick Dougherty

Rick and Sarah Says discuss the two newest Disney movie sensations Encanto and Turning Red.  Before that, Rick will go over some Walt Disney World news.

Just a reminder, Rick is going to be walking all 620-miles of the Ireland Way starting in June.  He is doing this to raise money and awareness for Break the Silence Against Domestic Violence.  To donate, please use this link...

Just $10, $15, or $20 can make a huge difference in helping Rick achieve his fundraising goals, and helping survivors of domestic violence and their families.

Rick will talk with Christina from Alaska, who recently returned to Disneyland for the first time since the parks reopened last year.  She will talk about how things look on the ground at this point.  Also, Sarah Says returns to the show to give us a preview of Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando Resort.

Of course, we are looking for 100 people to donate $10 each by Sunday for Break the Silence Against Domestic Violence.  Here is the link...

Marisa from Chicago is on the show this week to talk about runDisney, and her stay at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside Resort.  Rick's wife Courtney will also join the show for a dining review of Mythos at Universal's Islands of Adventure.

Starting in June, Rick will be walking the 620-mile-long Ireland Way to raise money and awareness for Break the Silence Against Domestic Violence.  As part of his preparation, he will be running the runDisney Tower of Terror 10-Miler on April 3rd of 2022.  In honor of this run, Rick is asking anyone who has the means to donate just $1 per-mile for this race.  If we can get 100 people to donate $10 before the start of the race, that will be another $1,000 for survivors of domestic violence and their families.
