    DIS Unlimited Podcast Disney Virtual Roundtable Discussion Episode #1

    Is that on Instagram? I've seen the stuff she posted earlier when the story first came out. How do I find the most recent posts? I'm not very familiar with navigating Instagram.

    Erica Leaving Dis Unlimited

    Well Julie has a full time teaching job now so we probably won’t see her on Tuesdays. As long as they remain on Zoom it’s easy for Jackie or Theresa to join. Once they have a new studio, Jackie lives in Seattle and Theresa works in Port Canaveral. I do agree that replacing Erica with another...

    Erica Leaving Dis Unlimited

    I wanted to circle back to this comment I made. On a recent show Ryno did he was talking to his friend Jill who used to be a character performer. Apparently the system has changed and any of them can train to do parades. I still wasn’t clear if that’s a separate division or if they can be both a...

    Erica Leaving Dis Unlimited

    Maybe, although I believe they do fairly short shifts and switch off so it's possible Pooh was still onstage. I can't say for sure.

    Erica Leaving Dis Unlimited

    Years ago we were having lunch at Crystal Palace. I was wearing a DISBoards badge. Pooh came to our table, got all excited when he saw my badge, pointed to it and pointed to himself to indicate that he was a DISBoards member too. A short time later, a young woman came to our table and introduced...

    Erica Leaving Dis Unlimited

    I believe character performers usually have a few characters they do. Different characters have different physical requirements. For example, Erica would never be a friend of Goofy because she's too short. Also, I believe characters in parades and shows are an entirely different crew than the...

    Erica Leaving Dis Unlimited

    It sounds like she’s going back to being a character performer so you won’t know her if you see her.

    Erica Leaving Dis Unlimited

    Sorry to hear that but happy for her. Clearly that's where her passion lies but I'll miss her on the show.

    Halloween Week at Disney World & News + Topolino's Terrace Breakfast Review – Episode #5

    From the sounds of it you’d get a much better meal at Waffle House. And $75 would feed a family of 4 or 5.

    Halloween Week at Disney World & News + Topolino's Terrace Breakfast Review – Episode #5

    That’s been Disney’s cop out for years. You get to shake hands with Mickey so we can give you crappy food for $75. That’s not an acceptable answer. There’s absolutely no reason that they can’t serve decent food at a character meal. We haven’t been there for years because the cost got outrageous...

    Halloween Week at Disney World & News + Topolino's Terrace Breakfast Review – Episode #5

    Another great show. As always, it was great to have a John and Kevin dining review. One thing was glaringly missing from that review, though. With all of the issues they encountered, there should have been a conversation with the manager. Cold food, not just one item but several, and a server...

    Haunted Mansion DCL Bar Announced + Holiday & After Hours Details Announced – Episode #4

    Great show. Fast paced and informal and not overly scripted and fun. That’s the way to do it. The “script” should consist of 4 or 5 bullet points you want to try and touch on and then go from there.

    Walt Disney World & Beyond Discussion + What Disney Means To Us – Episode #3

    This is me exactly. Being able to get all of my Disney news in one place in a 1-hr podcast that I listen to in the car is ideal for me. I don't watch a bunch of videos, rarely go on YouTube unless I'm trying to DIY repair something at home, and very very rarely watch any of the DIS video...

    Have we reached Peak Pricing at WDW?

    Not really. That chart ends with the start of the pandemic. That nearly vertical curve was before COVID.

    Walt Disney World & Beyond Discussion + What Disney Means To Us – Episode #3

    @Teleclashter Craig, I really enjoyed hearing everyone share what Disney has meant to them. I've heard many of those stories before having been following the team for many years, but it was still a great segment. I particularly enjoyed hearing from Erica. I have yet to have the pleasure of...

    Walt Disney World & Beyond Discussion + What Disney Means To Us – Episode #3

    A table in the park sounds nice but the background noise is intolerable. I stopped watching dining reviews ages ago because of that. I could barely hear what they were saying over the din. This. The more scripted it is the worse it is. The more they are just reading news stories and press...

    Walt Disney World & Beyond Discussion + What Disney Means To Us – Episode #3

    I respectfully disagree. I don't think John and Kevin are "the problem" at all. In fact, Kevin happens to be my favorite member of the whole team. The "problem" is that the format of the show doesn't utilize each person to contribute in the way that is most meaningful and appropriate for them...

    Walt Disney World & Beyond Discussion + What Disney Means To Us – Episode #3

    “Maybe they just need the right case then. John and Kevin were really unwatchable even when PW was on, they just added nothing to the show for me and brought the mood down. Erica may very well be a fantastic human, but is really insufferable to watch on every single episode regardless of topic...

    Walt Disney World & Beyond Discussion + What Disney Means To Us – Episode #3

    I don’t think the weekly format is dead but it needs to be more natural and casual, not overly scripted and structured. Every member of the panel doesn’t need to give their answer to every question unless they have something they’d like to say. The show works best when it presents as a few...
