EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
Non Disney Shops When Disneyland opened in 1955, The Walt Disney Company didn’t have the money to open all of their own shops that you find today. The shops and sponsors that helped get Disneyland started have a huge range of items from books, glass art, china, hats, glassware, metal art, pipes and lighters, Central American and Hawaiian clothing, candles, jewelry, magic tricks, pens, greeting cards, records, children's shoes, player piano rolls, toys, watches, even swimwear.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
Costumed Characters have been dazzling Disney guests for generations, but their appearances weren’t always as magical as the friends we greet today. Early park visitors encountered some rather peculiar outfits, with Mickey and pals looking surprisingly different from the beloved icons we now know. Over time, those costumes evolved, transforming into the lifelike, photo-ready characters that make every Disney trip unforgettable. From whimsical beginnings to cutting-edge character magic, this journey is one for the storybooks.

We’ll explore the hidden adult-only lounges, upscale dining like Palo and Remy, and even private beaches at Castaway Cay that most first-timers don’t realize exist. With insights into honeymoon-worthy experiences, solo escapes, and how Disney balances family magic with grown-up luxury, this conversation will surprise you. Joining us is our special guest Shannon from our Discord community, who shares her firsthand perspective on sailing Disney without kids.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
On this episode, we ask a fascinating question: should Walt Disney himself appear more often in Disney movies? With films like Saving Mr. Banks giving audiences a rare glimpse into the man behind the magic, our hosts dive into whether his story should take center stage more often—or if his legacy is better left in the parks, archives, and documentaries. We explore the challenges of portraying such a larger-than-life figure, how audiences respond when Disney is shown on screen, and what it means for the brand when the focus shifts from fairy tales to the man who created them.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
For this edition of Main Street Moment After Hours: With Early Entry ending at the Disneyland Resort starting January 5, 2026, the big question is whether staying on property is still worth it. While guests lose daily early access, they will now receive one complimentary Lightning Lane pass per stay for select attractions, offering more flexible and convenient access without the early mornings. Combined with perks like preferred dining access, exclusive park entrances, and close proximity to the parks, staying on property still delivers valuable benefits—though it depends on how much guests prioritize these new advantages over multiple Early Entry days. Tune is as we chat all about it and more!
