The Castle Collective - A podcast for Disney Parks fans

This week, Shawn is joined by Nick At Night, Sea Shelley, Sean Solo and Skipper Rob to do a round robin draft of a perfect day Disneyland's California Adventure. 

I hope you have a good phone case because you may want to throw your phone at a wall when you hear our unpopular opinions about the Disneyland Resort. Shawn is joined by Skipper Rob, Sea Shelley, Joel Skellington and Nick At Night. Remember, these are specifically UNPOPULAR opinions. Get ready for a spirited and really fun discussion!!

This week, Sea Shelley, Nick At Night and Skipper Rob join Shawn to talk about where Disney could open new parks or "gates". Where would we put them? What would the theming be? Could villains take over? Can all the national parks be in one park? Can the frontier be in the Lone Star State? Can Disney do cold? Spoiler: We do talk about having new gates in some cold places but...we don't talk about Juneau. 

This week Joel Skellington, Sea Shelley, and Nick At Night join Shawn to discuss Disneyland transportation. We talk about the train, tram, Monorail and more. As a bonus, Skipper Rob calls in live from the park! 

This week, Skipper Rob, Heather Poppins, Joel Skellington and Nick at Night join Shawn for a year end celebration. We talk about what Disney things we got for Christmas. We then talk Disneyland resolutions. First, we share our own resolutions for how we will better enjoy Disneyland in 2022. We then give what we think Disneyland should resolve to do to make 2022 that much more magical. 

This week, Shawn is joined by Joel Skellington, Sea Shelley and Skipper Rob to discuss what ONE attraction is best for each age range. Is Haunted Mansion too scary for a five year old? Is Indiana Jones too jerky for a 65 year old? Is Matterhorn too jerky for all ages??? We give our picks for the best attraction for every age range. Disagree? Let us know on social media!

On this episode, Shawn is joined by Nick at Night and awesome NEW COLLECTIVE MEMBER Sea Shelley to discuss the little things that make Disneyland so magical. We go over sights, sounds, tastes, places, and all the special touches that make Disneyland the Happiest Place On Earth. This episode is the next best thing to being at the parks! 

This week, Shawn is joined by Nick At Night, Skipper Rob, Heather Poppins, Sean Solo, Joel Skellington and Captain California Bryce to discuss what attractions from other Disney parks around the world we would bring to the Disneyland Resort in California. Our Collective members got really creative with this one. Not only did they have to say what attraction would be put in, but also where would it go and what would be taken out. There are a few that just seem obvious and some that are really creative. While many came from Florida, we had attractions suggested from all the Disney parks around the world!

Also we are GIVING AWAY a $25 Disney gift card!! Listen to the episode for details!

This week, Sean Solo, Heather Poppins, Joel Skellington and Skipper Rob join Shawn to talk about the other side of Fantasyland. Is Peter Pan worth the wait? Are the best bathrooms in Disneyland found in Fantasyland? Is the Matterhorn really a Fantasyland attraction? Is It's A Small World hiding a much darker backstory??? We answer all this and more PLUS your chance to win custom art from our very own Heather Poppins! 

This week, Skipper Rob, Nick at Night and Sean Solo join Shawn to talk about Fantasyland. We talk about castles, princesses, swords in stones, Pinocchio, Snow White, Dumbo and more!
