Many people go to Disney Parks to get away from the problems of every day life, if only for a few days. But as we know from experience, though joyful in nearly every way, not many people would say a Disney vacation is "restful." Where do you go to catch a break from the hustle and bustle in the parks? Join us as our hosts answer that question, reflect (and disagree) on the impact of Encanto, and more on this week's episode!

Disney attractions are full of moments that inspire childlike wonder and amazement, but has anything ever taken your breath away? Our cohosts talk about the moments that a Disney Park left our jaws on the floor. But first, we spend an awful lot of time talking about Bruno. Join us for this week's episode!

2022 is an important year for the Walt Disney Company, as we see new offerings debut in Parks, Streaming, and at the Box Office, as well as a return of some old classics still on pause due to the pandemic. This week, the fellas talk about what they are most looking forward to in 2022 and why that answer is clearly Kenobi on Disney+.

Pirates of the Caribbean. The Haunted Mansion. Country Bear Jamboree. Jungle Cruise. Each of these attractions has a movie based on them, with varying degrees of success. What should be next? Our hosts explore their ideas for new Disney movies based on Parks attraction in this week's episode!

Paul, Matt and John share their favorite mementos from Disney Parks and the - surprisingly! - emotional stories behind them. Join them for a great discussion and find your own keepsakes as well!

'Tis the season! This week, we’re discussing the holiday overlays. Some might know of the popular Disney’s Haunted Mansion gets an overlay during the Halloween and Christmas/Holiday seasons. Jack Skellington and his friends from Nightmare Before Christmas take over a bona fide classic. But… is it a good thing? We discuss beloved attractions getting overlays this week on This Happy Podcast.

Some intellectual properties feel like they're everywhere in the parks! Which IPs do we need a break from in the Disney Parks, so that we can miss them? We have some thoughts!

This week, we’re discussing intellectual properties at Disney Parks. Disney seemingly owns everything, but there are glaring holes in representation at the parks. Each of us has an opinion about what should be in the Parks more and we’re going to share them.

This week, we’re looking around the world, but not like we're at Epcot. We’re scouring Disney Parks across the globe and talking about attractions we want to ride or experience. Share your own personal goal at [email protected]!

Boo! We’re still in Halloween mode, discussing our favorite remnants of Disney Parks from the past. Perhaps it’s a dearly-departed attraction or a location at a Disney resort. What do you miss? Hear our takes in the latest episode of This Happy Podcast.
