    As we head towards our final episode April 1st, recording at Tiki A Go Go (join if you can!).

  • TikTok Zootopia Rabbit Holes, Jungle NYE Speed Runs, & why this Ronto Wrap slaps

    We’re back from winter break and immediately making up for lost time.

    This episode is a full Jungle-style free-for-all: bizarre New Year’s Eve stories, childhood experiences that felt normal but absolutely weren’t, Disney decisions that make no sense, food opinions that feel legally actionable, and a few moments where we probably reveal too much about how our brains work.

    We talk NYE chaos from Disneyland to Washington, DC, weird algorithm rabbit holes, theme park history, abandoned Disney ideas, and why some things were never meant to survive Park Operations. There’s nostalgia, good times, and much much more

    The break is over. The Jungle is back open.
    Welcome to 2026.

  • Roger Rabbit Rights Return, Fake Jungle Fams, & come ride the Galactic Murder Bus

    “Life is chaos—but we’re doing all right.” From Halloween hangovers to Thanksgiving Turkey Explosions, Trevor & Dave dive into an oddly empty Disneyland visit, a Haunted Mansion Holiday that felt twice as fast, and a Star Tours ride-through that sparks the eternal question: why does a civilian shuttle have blasters? We swap Jungle Cruise safari stories (secret-shopper managers, Indy’s “King Kong doors”), mourn the death of free club soda taps, and so much more!
