  • EP 41: Our Top 5 Favourite Things To Do, Eat, See, or Experience in Orlando (1 Year Anniversary!)

    It’s been one year since we started The DUO Podcast and we can’t quite believe it. We decided to do this show as a way to help us get through the stress of the pandemic, by reminding ourselves that there were brighter days ahead.

    Since then, we have had thousands of listens, built a lovely community on social media, and made some awesome friends out of it. Whether you’ve listened to us since the start, in the past 6 months, or even just the last two episodes, we couldn’t be more grateful that you have joined us for the ride and supported us along the way.

    Here’s to open that next year’s anniversary will see us planning our next trip or discussing a recent one… Either way, the World is in our sight for as soon as possible!

    In this episode, we are ranking each of our top five favourite things to experience in Orlando. These are our non-negotiables, our must-dos, our can’t-enjoy-Orlando-without-‘em essential moments.

    Have a listen, then share with us your top five as we seriously love hearing about your special selects! You can find us on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter, and as always, be sure to write a review if you’re listening on Apple Podcasts and share the show with your pals as it really helps to get the word out.

    Thanks, and here’s to another 1 year of talking DUO together!

  • EP 40: Ranking Disney Transportation (From Most Loved to Least Loved)

    Oh yeah, we made an episode about Disney Transportation, and we are PROOOUUDD of it! We’ve been visiting the World since 2004, and have watched the many magical forms of transportation evolve and expand over the years, and in this episode, we’re ranking our most loved to least loved ways to get around Walt Disney World.

    In this conversation, we mention travelling by foot, bus, monorail, boat and Skyliner, and briefly touch on the option to travel by Minnievan, although we’ve not used this yet.

    Let us know what your most-loved and least loved modes of WDW transport are, as well as the memories attached to them, via Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter, and as always, be sure to write a review if you’re listening on Apple Podcasts and share the show with your pals as it really helps to get the word out.

  • EP 39: Ranking The Pavilions In World Showcase (From Favourite to Least Favourite)

    Ok so, the sun is out in the UK and that can only mean one thing – Disney daydreaming vibes are in full swing. At this time of year, we usually crank up the Epcot Master Mix (search for that on YouTube!) to set the mood and transport us to World Showcase whilst we work in the day, and help us to wind down in the evening.

    It had us thinking and chatting about World Showcase with a focus on ranking the pavilions from our favourite to least favourite.

    We based our decision on Entertainment, Attractions, Food & Drink, Shopping, and Cultural Aesthetics! Please note that we by no means believe that there is a pavilion that’s the “worst”, as a lot of our lower choices have been at the top at some point, and we fully expect our higher choices to change over time!

    Let us know your ranking and why via the comments! And, if you feel that we were totally WRONG on our choices, tell us why and change our minds. You can find us on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter, and as always, be sure to write a review if you’re listening on Apple Podcasts and share the show with your pals as it really helps to get the word out.

    Thanks, and enjoy the show.

  • EP 38: What We Took For Granted In Walt Disney World

    This episode is inspired by a recent conversation on the Best & Worst podcast, where The DIS team spoke on all the things they didn't appreciate enough in Walt Disney World before the pandemic. For this discussion, we reflected on the simple delights, unique features, and experiential moments that they wish they'd given more love and attention to both before the pandemic and back to their earlier trips to Walt Disney World.


    We loved talking about this and offering ourselves little glimmers of hope that we will see much of what we mentioned return to the World in its full form one day! Let us know what you took for granted in Walt Disney World and if any of our choices resonated with your trips. You can find us on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter, and as always, be sure to write a review if you’re listening on Apple Podcasts and share the show with your pals as it really helps to get the word out.

    Thanks, and enjoy the show.

  • EP 35: Our Favourite Shopping Locations in Orlando

    So our prime minister announces that things may finally be getting back to normal… and we get a little over-excited and start thinking about shopping.

    In today’s episode, we’re gonna be talking about our much-loved shopping spots in Orlando!

    Between the both of us, we’re totally different shoppers; Amelia prefers a quieter, slower pace, whereas Gabbi is a real unit when it comes to hunting down the best bargains. Together, we’ve compiled a list of our favourite locations to head to depending on what kind of shopper you are!

    Let us know where your go-to shop-til-ya-drop locations are and the ones we need to add to our list!

  • EP 34: The Orlando Restaurants We Cannot Wait To Eat At (Outside of Walt Disney World!!)

    An episode not about Disney? Let’s be honest, it was long overdue! Today we’re talking all about the restaurants in Orlando that we have at the top of our list of new places to try when we head back to our second home.

    From Universal eats to I-Drive streets, there’s so much variety of goodness that we cannot wait to tuck into for the first time. This was such a fun episode to record and a word of warning; make sure you’ve already eaten before listening or you’ll be drooling all over the shop!

    Let us know if you’ve sampled any of the places we mention or have some other spots you’d love to recommend to us! You can find us on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter, and as always, be sure to write a review if you’re listening on Apple Podcasts and share the show with your pals as it really helps to get the word out.
