Wednesday, October 21, 2026 • Duration 50:43

Theme parks are known for their incredible rides, attractions, food, and atmosphere… but what about the SMELLS? 👃

On this episode of No Loose Items, Brian and Chandler are getting surprisingly specific and ranking their favorite theme park smells! From the iconic E.T. queue at Universal Orlando to the unforgettable water smell inside Pirates of the Caribbean, some theme park scents are just as nostalgic as the attractions themselves.

We’re breaking down our top three favorite theme park smells, sharing some honorable mentions, and discussing the scents that make certain rides and locations so memorable. We also get into some smells that aren’t quite as pleasant, because not everything at a theme park smells like popcorn and Butterbeer!

Plus, we’re talking Halloween Horror Nights winding down, upcoming Universal and Disney announcements, the delay of Jurassic Park River Adventure, Blumhouse coming to the Horror Make-Up Show, roller coaster news, and plenty of other theme park discussion.
