| The Case of the Islands: Pirate v Tom Sawyer | 20 Aug 2020 | 01:50:13 | |
Tom Sawyer Island is a sleeper hit at the domestic Disney parks. While it isn't the first attraction we all run to, when we get there, we are reminded of its peaceful charm. Also, it has a pretty storied past including Walt Disney Himself! Does it make sense that the pirate invasion is all told as a part of Tom's imagination, or is it simply shoehorned in to promote Disney movies? Does it make more sense to have Tom Sawyer Island landing in New Orleans Square or Frontierland?
What do Jake and the neverland Pirates or the band Rush have anything to do with these magical respites? Tune in to learn and grow and find all of these answers. We get a little more loose on this one while keeping all the mundane factual minutia. Everybody wins!
Enjoy!

| The Case of the Rapids: Kali v. Grizzly | 05 Aug 2020 | 01:47:31 | |
Rapids Ride are a staple at many theme parks around the world. They are almost a necessary evil. Do you wear a poncho when you ride? Are you one of those who always pick "The Hot Seat"? Whatever the case, Kali River Rapids at Disney's Animal Kingdom and Grizzly River Run at Disney California Adventure are among the best in the world. How many more similar ride systems are there? What is the best pastry company and their assorted choices? Will you feel the shame about our global destruction of nature by riding Kali? Will you agree with the land impact of Grizzly? Is that giant bear out front of the ride actually for sale? You'll find all of that and more in this episode. Also, we start with current updates from the parks and a fun fact we learned by listening to another podcast that shall remain nameless.

Disney recently announced the retheming of Splash Mountain. As a supplement to our main show about Splash Mountain this special bonus episode explores the changes we expect, why is it here, when will it be here, how does it fit in to each respective land at Disneyland and Walt Disney World?
We also discuss some of the backlash caused by this announcement and some potential slippery slope changes on the horizon at our beloved theme parks.
Join Jimmy, Dan and Erik as we explore the possibilities and determine what makes a true log ride once and for all. Will Karen make an appearance, you'll have to listen to find out!
Also, Jimmy recounts his interview with a current Disneyland Cast member who shall remain nameless but rather go by the pseudonym, "Horace Vandergelder"

| The Case of the Splash Mountains: Critter Country v. Frontierland | 16 Jul 2020 | 01:58:01 | |
Splash Mountain has been in the news a lot lately. This episode was recorded well before the announcement of the rethemeing and the backlash from the underlying issues created by the source material. Anyone who has ever been to the parks knows that Splash Mountain is a right of passage. As one of the 3 in the triple mountain whammy, it has been and will continue to be beloved attraction.
In this episode, Jimmy, Erik, and Dan discuss the history of these attractions, and dig into what makes a log ride a true log ride. Does a chain lift negate the validity of what makes a log ride a log ride?

| The Case of Size: Does it Matter | 15 Jun 2020 | 01:23:53 | |
Does size matter?
Disneyphiles Often Note That All Sizes Kinda Matter Yet We'll Investigate For Everyone
We have often discussed the size of Disneyland and its attractions as well as the size of Walt Disney world and its attractions. But does size matter? After all, as Dan often points out, "It's not Disneyland's fault that its small. What does it do with the limited space it has? Do they do that better? Conversely, is the fact that Walt Disney World is so big make it better? For example, the Odyssey in Epcot is a large space that has sat largely empty for years. Does the fact that Walt Disney World have so much underutilized space make it worse? Tune in while we discuss the size of Disneyland and the size of Walt Disney World and identify where size matters and the use of size.
This begins season 2 of The Supreme Resort where we officiall welcome Erik from Conciears as our official 3 host. We begin with a statement about the turmoil in our society as well as Disney Parks news before we get in to the main topic

Space Mountain is a beloved attraction the world over. In Florida, Space mountain is the oldest operating roller coaster in the entire state. In California, Space Mountain basically is tomorrowland, being one of, if not the only futuristic attraction in the land. Do you remember the little silver balls in the queue in Orlando? Does the fact that the people mover no longer roams through Anaheim’s Space Mountain make it worse?

| The Case of the Jr. Coasters | Gadget v. Goofy | 31 Mar 2020 | 00:55:27 | |
Not every attraction can be an E Ticket, and these two are no exception: Gadget's Go Coaster and Goofy's Barnstormer Coaster. Perhaps specifically geared to youngsters, but Imagineering still found some ways to plus these two very short coasters and fit them in their respective lands. Erik from Conciears joins us once again to discuss all of the above. He also shares some of his pharmacists views on the ongoing virus that is changing all of our lives.
Will the re-themed Barnstormer reign supreme, or will gadget’s relatively short queue help make it the supreme Jr coaster?

| The Case of the Jungle Cruise: Ruins v. Temple | 29 Mar 2020 | 01:35:56 | |
The Jungle Cruise is an opening day attraction at Disneyland and Walt Disney World. It began as an innovative yet serious look at wildlife in the jungle and over the years evolved in to the pun filled silliness we know and love today. Marc Davis was integral to its evolution at Disneyland and was the main imagneer behind the complete reimagining of its counterpart in Orlando. One has an ancient Cambodian shrine, while the other has a fully immersive Cambodian Temple. Which will reign supreme?

| Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room | 04 Mar 2020 | 01:12:19 | |
Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room was the first fully animatronic show ever built at Disneyland. And, as a result of the super hot massive computers that ran it, also the first air conditioned attraction.
Walt Disney world's version has ... um ... well it's the same, so we're going to handle this show a bit differently.
Join us while we interview Erik Johnson, who works at our official travel partner ConciEARS, as we discuss all things travel planning for Disney parks, Jimmy's last trip to disneyworld and so much more.
Dan also shares a little history about America's fascination with tiki culture in the '60's, and discusses the development of the exotica genre of music, which is classically "tiki".

| The Case of the Usurping Poohs | Fantasyland v. Critter Country | 07 Feb 2020 | 00:53:25 | |
The many adventures of Winnie the Pooh is a classic dark ride at Magic Kingdom and Disneyland. The AA Milne characters have been part of the Disney family since the 1960s but did not become part of an attraction in the US parks until 1999. The rides on both coasts are virtually identical, but the lands and the queues vary wildly. Does the interactive queue at Walt Disney World outweigh the relatively short wait times at Disneyland? Have we heard the last of the ”what is Dan watching on Disney+ segment?” Did that segment last 4 episodes too long?

| The People v Star Tours | 20 Jan 2020 | 00:55:27 | |
Star Tours is a beloved attraction. It was a revolutionary ride in the theme park industry at the time and was the spiritual predecessor of attractions like Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye. Now that Batuu exists and another spiritual successor Millennium Falcon Smugglers Run is now entertaining guests, should Star Tours still exist? Listen as the boys engage in a lively debate to answer this question and to decide once and for all, which is better, Star Tours in the flailing tomorrow land or Star Tours in the identity crisis laden Disney’s Hollywood Studios?

| The case of the Haunted Mansions: Disneyland v. Magic Kingdom | 31 Dec 2019 | 01:35:18 | |
The Haunted Mansion is a beloved attraction. The mystery of its structure being erected years before its actual opening have been passed down through generations of Disneyland fans. Both Mansion rides were developed and built simultaneously and therefore share the same history. Both attractions share much of the same ride experience. Does the size of the mansion affect the riders experience? Do the extra show scenes at WDW make a difference? What about the interactive queue in Orlando? Does the contradictory aesthetic detract? How does the overlay at Disneyland for many months of the year impact the casual fan? We’re not sure even we know the answers to these questions. This is our tencennial episode and we are “dying” to have you listen and join the conversation. Listen as the air is “deathly still” for much longer than should be tolerated. “Hurry back” for many more Supreme episodes in the future!

| The Case of the Wild Mouse Coasters: Primeval Whirl v. Goofy’s Sky School | 27 Dec 2019 | 00:44:29 | |
Wild mouse coasters are often an off-the-shelf ride experience with little-to-no story. These two Disney versions are no real exception. Primeval Whirl has some variations in the ride system, but Goofy’s Sky School is in the ever famous Paradise Gardens Park. Both attractions are/were in lands largely modeled after carnivals and/or road side fairs. Those lands fundamentally differ from Walt’s original vision of what Disney parks were meant to be. Listen to the boys discuss not which is better, but perhaps, which is worse?

| The Case of the Single Rider Springstravaganza: Part 1 | 20 Feb 2024 | 01:51:20 | |
It's that time of year again! Because we can't say March Madness because we will get sued...wait....'
Anyway, it is the time of year where we create the brackets and decide the best thing in all the 4 parks or some variation of that theme.
This year, what is the best single rider line in the domestic parks? The intent of this episode was to break down all the single rider lines and get to a top 16 so we could debate for the final episode in March with a special guest host from DL Weekly Podcast, Tage. However, upon further investigation, Disney did it for us because while there are officially 9 at Disneyland, there are only 4 at Walt Disney word.
So, while we also discuss other items I.e. price of the parks, general hot takes etc, we land on the elite 8 and determine the brackets for this year's challenge.
I swear we are not becoming haters on the parks, Jimmy just posed the "is it too expensive" question and like the rest of the arguments of this show, it just depends.

Which will win? The seasoned veteran with classic music and characters seen by millions? The upstart with new music written by an internet star? You'll have to tune in for all the song excerpts, all the analysis, all the ambivalence. Also, I think Dan has a new obsession.
We had a fun time recording After Hours on this one as well. To have a listen, join us on Patreon at https://patreon.com/earzup

| The Case of the Hollywood Homage Restaurants: Brown Derby v Carthay Circle | 31 Jan 2024 | 02:28:26 | |
It's fancy restaurant versus also fancy restaurant! As we descend further toward deciding which Hollywood tribute land is the best, we have to talk about signature restaurants.
Which is better? The Hollywood Brown Derby has a neon sign and is a replica of a real place. The Carthay Circle Restaurant is a food place crammed into what should be a replica of a theater. It's going to be closer than you think.
Check in with your pals who labored extensively (one of them) over this decision. We apologize just a but, but the real show doesn't start until 30 minutes in. So skip there if you don't want to listen to mail.
I am not sure if anybody reads these because I know I rarely do.
Have a swell February, folks.

Discover the heartwarming rendition of Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy by two iconic artists.

| The Case of the Fantasy Restaurants: Haus v Rose | 05 Dec 2023 | 01:54:21 | |
Finally, we address the restaurants in Fantasyland. Which is better? Red Rose Tavern, the new kid on the block, or the Pinocchio Village Haus? We debate. We come to a conclusion. This is kind of how things go here.

| The Case of the D23's Land v World | 25 Aug 2024 | 02:11:35 | |
Everyone is covering D23 from August of 2024. It's been done. We are above such low hanging fruit.
Who are we kidding? Low hanging fruit is the easiest to pick, that's where that phrase comes from. Being the show we are, we discuss the D23 expo and all the domestic parks announcements but we decide which resort won D23 and all the announcements.

| The Case of the Philharmagics: Magic Kingdom versus Disney California Adventure | 21 Nov 2023 | 01:40:40 | |
Mickey's Philharmagic! How dare Disney say Mickey isn't in an attraction?
Enjoy a maybe-brief review of the history of the land on which these theater attractions currently exist. Dan gets defensive. Erik starts talking about another list of voice actors. Jimmy forms his own opinions. You know how the show works.
Anyway, we're looking at the two renditions of Mickey's Philharmagic in DCA and the Magic Kingdom. Which is better? Are we working toward some conclusion to the Hollywood streets at some point? Is one of our sponsors racist?
Only you can solve this mystery, listener!

| The Case of Halloween 2023: Mr. Toad vs the World | 31 Oct 2023 | 01:48:53 | |
The judges ally with an archived podcast named Dark Rides to talk about the demise of J Thaddeus Toad at the Magic Kingdom. They're sorry. But only a little.
Join the gents as they break down the east coast version of Erik's favorite ride.
Here are a bunch of links to things. Erik spent way too long researching this episode. Enough that he still hasn't figured out how to do the chapter markings he wants to do.
Happy Halloween!
