| Ep 96: Road to 100 Series with KG from the Living the KG Life Podcast | 10 Jun 2024 | 01:00:40 | |
Well the Road to 100 Series comes to a close, and I could not think of a better guest to close us out strong than KG! KG hosts the Living the KG Life and is a fellow Boston based Disney podcaster. KG teaches us all a little more about DVC and RunDisney which are admittedly 2 Disney topics I know not much about, so I am taking notes on this appearance as well. We also learn more about KG's Disney parks personality and of course we close it out with recruiting her to take part in my 100th podcast episode project, so you will her KG back on here again very soon!

Not a lot of bells and whistles needed for this description. It's a good old fashioned rankings type of podcast episode, and I give my Top 10 Disney Animated movies of all time. I throw a few honorable mentions out there, and I also list the animated movies I have still some how some way not found a chance to watch yet. This was a fun episode topic to discuss, but enjoy this solo hosted episode, because its going to be the last one for a pretty long stretch coming up. I have been working hard behind the scenes to line up a BUNCH of fantastic guests for you guys to listen to, and I am also in the podcast secret lab working on a project for my 100th episode that I really hope you will enjoy as well.

| Ep 83: You Know What Really Grinds My Gears? Chapter 7 (Disney+) | 12 Feb 2024 | 00:36:42 | |
Well it's been a long time since we've had to do a "You Know What Really Grinds My Gears?" episode, but this one has been brewing for a few weeks behind the scenes. It started with the announcement that Mando was not coming back for a 4th season and instead was being made into a movie. Then out of nowhere Disney dropped the announcement that we were going to get Moana 2 as a movie, in November of this year. Having to watch the Chiefs win another championship, along with the combo of a Disney+ commercial near the end of the game pushed me over the edge though, and driving home I knew the fire was finally ready to come out, so I had to turn the mic on and change up the episode plans for this week, and let you guys know what was going on with my opinions on this one.

| Ep 82: Recording from all 4 WDW Parks | 22 Jan 2024 | 00:48:31 | |
Well it has been a few weeks, but I hope the idea I had for this episode turns out to be worth the wait for you. I took some time off for the holidays to relax with my family, then we hit my birthday and New Years Day, and we made a BIG announcement for the future of the podcast on Instagram. When I talked about that BIG announcement here on the podcast for the first time, I wanted to make sure it was an extra special episode. I have always wanted to record LIVE from somewhere on WDW property, and with the park hopping time restrictions FINALLY being lifted, I thought why not take "The 4 Park Challenge" to the next level, and not just visit all 4 parks in the same day, but bring my recording equipment with me and record a full episode, by going to all 4 parks and recording a segment at each of them. Hopefully you guys get a kick out of the background ambiance during this episode! The gears are already spinning for future episode ideas that I can return to the parks to record as well, so hopefully this episode is something you all enjoy.

| Ep 79: Larry from Your Magic Film | 20 Nov 2023 | 01:16:42 | |
I always appreciate anyone that LISTENS to this podcast, but this week I am giving you all some VISUAL homework. Larry from Your Magic Film was my special guest on the show this episode, and the content he is creating is the very definition of MUST SEE material. Larry makes heartfelt, emotional, and amazing family videos for your trip to Disneyland or DCA. I promise if you take the time to go watch just one or two, you will get hooked and end up watching 5 or 6 easily. The quality of his work is just phenomenal. If you are not a west coast park local, or you are just looking for some other content to check out, Larry's trailer video for the Haunted Mansion Holiday Overlay and Baby Yoda Gets Lost in Disneyland are a few other MUST SEE videos as well. My kids have watch the Baby Yoda video probably 1,000 times already, its incredible. Thanks so much again to Larry for giving up his time to come on the podcast this week, and to share his passion, and a lot of behind the camera secrets for how he makes the magic with his work.

| Ep 78: WDW Trip Report with my daughter Sydney (Part 2 of 2) | 13 Nov 2023 | 01:19:00 | |
You guys have been asking when Sydney was coming back on the show to finish her trip report from our Sept 2023 Father/Daughter trip, and today is finally that day. Dental surgery, internet issues, friend birthday parties, school work, they all did their best to keep her from getting back on the mic these past few weeks, but the stars finally aligned once again and she is back to finish telling you all about our trip.

| Ep 94: Road to 100 Series with Dave and Q | 05 Jun 2024 | 00:58:40 | |
When I think of Disneyland and big time Disney fans, 2 of the first names I think of are Dave (@daveifornia) and Q (@qs_trips). If someone asked me to come up with a list of 10 MUST FOLLOW IG accounts to recommend someone new just coming into the world of the online Disney community should follow, Dave and Q would both be on that list for me. Not only do Dave and Q both make great content, but these guys are 2 of the kindest and most supportive people you can meet in the entire Disney fan base. I am absolutely honored that they both were willing to come on my podcast for this episode, and that they both agreed to come back for the idea I have for my 100th episode as well. We had a bunch of laughs recording this episode, I cannot wait to get them back on again so we can do it all over again!

| Ep 77: WDW Resorts | 06 Nov 2023 | 00:55:58 | |
On todays epsidoe we break down all the different hotel options that you have if you are looking to stay on Disney property on your next trip to WDW. We will cover all the different categories and levels, as well as cover some DVC Villa information as well. I will be back to WDW in January for 2-3 days, so after going through all the hotels, we try to pick which option will be best to think about for that upcoming trip.

| Ep 76: WDW Trip Report with my daughter Sydney (Part 1 of 2) | 16 Oct 2023 | 01:23:51 | |
Right off the bat, I apologize for the audio quality for my portion of the interview with my daughter Sydney. I did not realize my podcast mic had not connected properly so our entire hour plus interview my audio was only recorded from the mic built into the laptop and you can here the drop in quality from what I normally try to bring to the table here on this podcast, and I did not want to make my daughter have to re-record everything that we had just talked about a second time.

| Ep 75: The Ahsoka Recap Show: Episode 8 Season 1 Finale | 05 Oct 2023 | 01:23:23 | |
Ahsoka Season 1 came to a close, and Tim and I are here to help break it all down for you, and to give you our opinions on this finale episode, as well as on the entire first season as a whole. We had 7 fantastic guests come on the show for this mini series, but for this one, we decided to keep it simple, and the 2 of us would flush out all our feelings on all things Ahsoka Season 1 together.

| Ep 74: The Ahsoka Recap Show: Episode 7 with Katie from @themagicaldetails | 03 Oct 2023 | 01:29:33 | |
Episode 7 from the brand new Ahsoka show on Disney+ came out last Tuesday, and we promised you guys we would work as quickly as we could to record, edit, and post these recap episodes to get you some Ahsoka content to help keep you entertained in between the release of the episodes on Disney+. Then I went and planned a last minute WDW trip to get some 1 on 1 time with my daughter Sydney, so that threw off our recording schedule off for this episode, but luckily my cohost Tim and our guest Katie were both very forgiving and we all worked out a time to get this episode recorded for you guys. We held the release until today, the same day the season 1 finale will air, so you guys could have some Ahsoka content to help get you through the last few hours before you can enjoy that new episode tonight on Disney+.

| Ep 73: Surprise WDW trip with my daughter Sydney | 25 Sep 2023 | 00:28:06 | |
Surprise! I have been keeping a secret here on the podcast for weeks now. On Tue 9/26 I am flying down to Orlando for a 1 on 1 daddy/daughter trip to Walt Disney World. My daughter Sydney and I are doing Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween party, trying Tron for the first time, getting to see the new Journey of Water attraction inspired by Moana, trying Sorain' Over California for the first time ever, and so much more! On this surprise episode I let you know everything we have on our trip to do list. I also let you know the father/daughter costume combo we are doing for the MNSSHP. If you enjoy this episode, make sure you subscribe to the show, so you can be the first to see next Monday's episode where I will have my daughter come on the pod as my very special guest for the episode to give a full trip report.

| Ep 72: Disney Park Updates from Destination D23 | 25 Sep 2023 | 01:08:11 | |
Well this episode is officially 1 week late, but I'm hoping the 5 minute opener on this one more than makes up for the wait to you, and I hope it makes you laugh (a few times) today. I made it a good way through recording this episode last week, and it was most definitely going to be a "You Know What Really Grinds My Gears?" type of episode. I thought about it, and decided to send that section of the episode to the trash bin, and redo it for today's episode release and try to focus the content more on the actual news updates while just sprinkling in some opinions along the way. I promise you all I did not change my opinions on any of these stories, I just tried to dial back the anger on the ones that annoyed me, and prevent any 5-10 venting sessions going off on a venting tangent.

| Ep 60: Elemental, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (with a sprinkle of Oppenheimer on top) | 31 Jul 2023 | 01:00:39 | |
The movie review train just keeps rolling on down the tracks here on The DMSW Podcast this week. We are that point on the calendar where there are just new movies and new tv shows on Disney+ coming out or wrapping up almost every single week. On today's episode we will finally catch up and review Pixar's Elemental as well as Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. Oppenheimer has become a bit of a cultural phenomenon right now, so since our Marvel pal RDJ plays a major role in that movie, we will throw in a quick bonus review for that movie as well. Going into next episode we have more reviews to get to, but I promise I will bring in some ghost host experts to help me to give you guys some new voices to hear from on a review episode. Make sure to circle back next week to hear from Emily and Clayton from the Make it Magical Podcast. The DMSW Podcast is proud to be a podcast partner with the ConciEARS Travel Agency! | |||
| Ep 59: You Know What Really Grinds My Gears? Chapter 6 (Bob Iger) | 17 Jul 2023 | 00:46:56 | |
Yes you read that right. On this episode today, I talk about an opinion I have had brewing in my secret podcasting bat cave for literally MONTHS at this point. Bob Iger and I are no longer together, and we are NEVER getting back together. News broke this week with Iger getting a contract extension that would keep him on as Disney's CEO through 2026. The straw that broke the camels back for me though, was just after signing his extension, he went on CNBC's Squawk Box and publicly came out against the writers that are currently on strike and I really just could not take it anymore. All of the built up frustrations come out today, on this episode of the show. The DMSW Podcast is proud to be a podcast partner with the ConciEARS Travel Agency! | |||
| Ep 58: The Little Mermaid (Live Action) (SPOILER HEAVY) | 10 Jul 2023 | 00:42:58 | |
On today's episode we go under the sea to visit with Ariel, Sebastian, Flounder, and all our other mermaid friends when we review the new Live Action remake of the Disney animated classic film, The Little Mermaid. This is a SPOILER HEAVY episode, so if you have not had a chance to see the movie yet, and do not want to know about any of the new details from this movie, download the episode and save your listen for after you eventually watch the movie. We will go over the acting performances from the main characters, breakdown the new songs and scenes added to this movie, and I will do my best to make it as clear as possible how incredibly breathtaking Halle Bailey's singing performances are in this movie.

We got the venting session out of the way back on Episode 56, and thank goodness because Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse was a super fun movie and there was plenty to talk about here on Episode 57. I really enjoyed this movie and could not wait to record an episode talking all about it. Listen in to find out where I rank it on my DMSW Podcast scale of 1-5, learn what I liked and didn't like about it, and hear my prediction of where I think they might be going in the next movie.

| Ep 56: You Know What Really Grinds My Gears? Chapter 5 (Single and Multiple-Park Options Coming for Genie+) | 26 Jun 2023 | 00:47:18 | |
Episode 56 was supposed to be a review of the new Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse movie, but once again Disney decided to make a special announcement about a big change coming to Genie+ and got the hot take machine all fired up. This new announcement left me once again feeling angry and ready to rant and rave all about here on the podcast. For anyone new to the show, I give my Genie+ Disclaimer up front and explain why I have hated the system since day one, and then we get into the new announcement and break it all down. I will explain to you why I don't like the sounds of these new updates, and as a life long sales guy, what it feels like Disney is trying to do us.

| Ep 55: Splash Mountain Closes it's Doors and the Podcast Mics for Magic Family All Share Their Thoughts | 12 Jun 2023 | 01:47:31 | |
The Podcast Mics for Magic Team met up at Disneyland to send Splash Mountain off in style, to raise money for charity, and through the magic of Disney we formed a Disney family and had one of the best park experiences we ever could have imagined. On this episode I give you my own personal trip recap and talk about what this entire Podcast Mics of Magic Experience meant to me, and definitely stick around for the end of the episode for a special treat. We set another new record for the show this week and have 12 guests join this episode. Thanks to Jordan, Brian, Tracey, Tim, Audreyann, Kylie, Ericka, Hayley, Bethany, Hannah, Elisa, and Linda for sending in some recordings of their answers to a few questions I sent them ahead of time so that I could get as many of them included on this episode to try and explain how awesome this trip really was.

| Ep 54: One Last Push for our Podcast Mics for Magic Fundraiser | 29 May 2023 | 00:40:25 | |
Last week we went into extra innings and broke a record for the longest episode in the history of the show, but we had a TON of fun with Hayley, Bethany, and Elisa that we just could not turn those mics off. This week will be a shorter episode, and I just wanted to give one last big push for the @PodcastMicsForMagic fundraiser event we are all doing and try to inspire you to make a donation if you have not yet already done so. I also wanted to do my best and run back through all of our friends who have supported us along the way through their podcasts or their small shops or in any other way as well. I feel so incredibly lucky to have met so many of you, and I cannot wait to fly out west TODAY (Leaving my house in literally 29 minutes, haha) and go meet some new friends in person out in Disneyland! Thanks again to EVERYONE that has helped us get this fundraiser to where it is today. We cannot thank you enough!

| Ep 52: You Know What Really Grinds My Gears? Chapter 4 (Genie+ Changes Announced for WDW in 2024) | 15 May 2023 | 00:38:33 | |
I tried to hold off as long as I could, but once Disney made their announcement last week I knew it was the right time to bring back the next installment in the "You Know What Really Grinds My Gears" series. I cover all 5 topics from the announcements made by Disney this week, but the majority of the focus of my anger is directed at Genie+. (Shocker right?)

| Ep 51: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (SPOILER HEAVY) | 09 May 2023 | 00:56:52 | |
Last week was just the tease, it was the spoiler free review, but we are back this week with the full length episode to go SPOILER HEAVY to review and breakdown all things Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. To me this was the best movie James Gunn has ever made, and the only real bad thing I can say about what he did here, was that its a bittersweet ending knowing that this is probably the last MCU project we will get to see James Gunn do. As a fan of GOOD comic book/super hero movies, his style, passion, and skill set will certainly be missed in the MCU.

| Ep 50.5: BONUS EPISODE: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 SPOILER FREE Review | 05 May 2023 | 00:14:29 | |
Breaking some new ground here with this special bonus episode. This is my first ever SPOILER FREE review episode, and it is for the newest MCU movie, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The full episode, with a complete breakdown including spoiler content will come out on Monday as Episode 51, but for this episode I give you my word that it is 100% SPOILER FREE.

| Ep 50: Emily and Clayton from the Make it Magical Podcast | 28 Apr 2023 | 01:27:51 | |
Episode 50 was a big milestone for me personally for this podcast. This one feels extra special to reach, and I could not think of a better way to celebrate then bringing on my 2 favorite ghost hosts, my fellow Disney podcasters, Emily and Clayton from the Make it Magical Podcast. On this episode we will learn all about their podcast, talk about their recent trip to Disneyland, and then we will get into their Punish the Podcaster event they just did to help us raise money for the Podcast Mics for Magic team that is fundraising for CHOC.

| Ep 49: Ranking the MCU Movies (Part 2) | 17 Apr 2023 | 01:09:03 | |
On todays episode we wrap up my complete MCU Movies rankings as we finish up where we left off last week. This episode is strictly the top 10. The cream of the crop from the MCU! I would love to hear from all of you listeners on how my rankings compared to yours. You can email me your entire list, you can send me a DM on Instagram, or just shoot me your top 5 or top 10. Either way, I would love to hear about where we agree, and what movies and characters you also love, but you guys know me, I am always ready for a good debate too. So if your list is very different from mine, or you absolutely hate how high or low I put a movie, reach out and let me know.

| Ep 92: Road to 100 Series with Alex from the Main Street Mechies Podcast | 30 May 2024 | 01:16:09 | |
Things are picking up steam now in The DMSW Podcast Road to 100 series! Alex from the Main Street Mechies Podcast joins us for the 2nd episode release of this week. Alex cohosts his show with his Disney bestie Noah, and the majority of their episodes are Armchair Imagineering focussed, but they also do a great job with their trip reports, inviting special guests on and interviewing them, as well as playing games and talking Disney current events as well. Alex and Noah run a quality show top to bottom, they have great banter and rapport with each other, and they put out some content on Instagram that you just cannot find anywhere else in the Disney space right now. I had a ton of fun talking with Alex for this episode, and cannot wait to have him come back on the show with Noah in just a few weeks.

| Ep 48: Ranking the MCU Movies (Part 1) | 10 Apr 2023 | 00:53:24 | |
On this weeks episode we do a quick recap of the big news that came out of Star Wars Celebration in London, and then we hit the "M" category from DMSW in a big way! One of the first Marvel topics I wanted to do back when I started this podcast was to go through and rank the entire MCU and we get that party started in this episode with part 1 of what we will be 2 episode adventure to get through the entire list. We start at movie #31 and stop just outside the top 10 with my #11 favorite. The DMSW Podcast is proud to be a podcast partner with the ConciEARS Travel Agency! | |||

We are back! I know it's been a few weeks since we have had a new episode release, but I appreciate your patience and sticking with this podcast while things have been quiet on the release schedule. Its been a stressful few weeks, but I finally had some time to sit down and focus on the show and creating a new episode that I was happy enough with to push the go button on and turn into a live episode.
