Magical Moments - The List

Season 1

Thursday, June 16, 2022 • Duration 11:02

As you can probably imagine, there’s so much Disney to talk about and a lot of this information doesn’t really fit into the interview format organically. Because of that, a new type of episode, Magical Moments, was created! In these shorter episodes, it’ll be easier to talk about even more tips and tricks to navigating the parks and do deeper dives about dining, attractions, Disney news and more.

If you listened to Scott's interview with Rory, then you’re aware of “The List” - the list of things they didn’t know the answers to and facts that they weren’t sure of. Since their interview, Scott reached out to friends, did some deep dives, and checked his sources and he has the answers!

Enjoy this first Magical Moments episode!
