I silently fist pumped next to my sleeping toddler when Jess shared the Mexico pavilion! Going inside and seeing the Coco exhibit makes my heart so happy!
I’ve talked to a wife of an imagineer. She said it’s underpaid for engineering fields because everyone is a Disney Nerd. She also said layoffs are frequent. I think she said her husband had never gone 4 years without being laid off for at least 3 months.
I would add the seas with Nemo & friends honestly! I love the aquarium so much & although you can most likely do that near your home town, it’s soooo nice for a break if you’re feeling overwhelmed & you can spend so much time there!
It's one of my favorites too!! Nemo is my fav Pixar movie, probably top 3 disney movies. I love the ride in particular so much but also aquariums are ALWAYS fun!
I’m sorry but y’all are gonna have to start releasing these weekly. It’s non-negotiable at this point. (Ok but also I’m joking bc clearly you guys are busy but I’m only lashing out bc I am just loving this podcast!!)
Yes!!!! WALKING THROUGH THE WORLD SHOWCASE AT NIGHT, SOAKING IN ALL THE BEAUTIFUL LIGHTS, SMELLING ALL THE SMELLS OF THE BAKED GOODS AND CHOCOLATES AND LISTENING TO THE MUSIC OF EACH PART OF THE WORLD! 😭 Core memories!!!!!
Y'all, I play Roller Coaster tycoon and what's SO fun is when you start the game, it "turns" your computer into a windows 98 dock for the game to play. It's SO nostalgic and fun! It's also way more fun as an adult bc you actually understand strategy.
behind the seeds tour of living with land is so fun! not too long, not too expensive and you walk away with a souvenir. getting to feed the fish and get closer to the labs.. ugh just i love it! p.s. the wild african trek at animal kingdom is absolutely incredible, it's a bit pricey but so worth it and the food is so good and there's not enough words to capture everything about it that's worth every dollar ..I would totally do it again in a heartbeat
Tinkerbell is grossly underrepresented in Disney. I've only been able to find one shirt on each of my last two trips. Tinkerbell is my Disney princess. Lol. Remy's was an awesome ride. Soarin is a must do. Ok, you didn't ask for my list. I love the podcast, can't wait for the next episode.
I can’t wait until these are weekly! Spaceship earth … the part that gets me is when they are watching the moon landing…I was that kid laying on the living floor with my parents saying pay attention this is history…gets me every time!
I’m from Florida so naturally I go to Disney every 5 years or so (it’s a requirement), as an adult I’ve only ever done Epcot the last 2x & thoroughly enjoyed it more than expected, as someone who’s not a huge Disney person (I love Disney but not Disney adult or even close). The freaking ratatouille ride was incredible❤
I would highly recommend doing keys to the kingdom , it’s a fantastic tour! It is however definitely not child friendly as you go down into the tunnels! When we went we saw a certain Scottish princess in a hairnet drinking a coke 😂
I am so impressed with your podcast so far…really like the photos &/or videos of the attractions/stores that you are speaking about… great idea to include that! Thanks for the entertainment and laughs!
I was listening in my car wishing y'all would describe the thing you were talking about, but then I get home & finish the episode on RU-vid & see all the clips & it all makes sense! Lol Sooooo awesome for someone who knows NOTHING about Disney! Thank youuuu! 😁
Thank you for triggering my memories. The first time we were at Epcot was 1988, last time was 1996. In 1988 our 4 yr old son LOVED Figment. He left that ride with a stuffed Figment. What a sweet memory! 🥰 No matter where I go on vacation, the gift shops are my euphoria!
My 1st trip to Disney World was in 1986. I was 7. I vividly remembered Figment from that 1st trip and that is still my favorite character at EPCOT. I also LOVED the Kitchen Cabaret!! Do you remember that? I think the last time I saw that there was 2000.
I was at EPCOT about a year and a half ago and I swear the “old test track” that you described is exactly what it did! We slid on ice, a truck almost hit us, we went over rough terrain, etc. and then went zooming outside for the speed part. I hadn’t been to EPCOT since I was like 13 so I can’t remember how it was back then lol but I swear my husband and I rode the version you’re talking about at the end of 2021!
Epcot is my favorite park, and Flower & Garden is my #1. I'll be in Florida in the entire month of May, and I'm trying to decide if I want to brave the heat to go to Flower & Garden then. Otherwise, it'll be my first year to miss the festival since 2017!
Soarin’ is my absolute favorite! Completely agree with it being a recommended can’t miss even for non-Disney people. It is the one ride that I think most everyone can appreciate. I have ridden it probably more than any other Disney ride and can only remember maybe twice where the whole theater of people didn’t break out in applause at the end. That says something about the immersive and magical experience that people appreciate it so much they can’t help but clap!
Love this!! Currently in the midst of planning a trip for late March, these episodes are so helpful. Can you add your lists to the summary of your show? It’s incredibly helpful to refer back to❤
Epcot is my favorite... solely off of nostalgia because of that 1990s vhs tape you were talking about. I'd never been but grew up religiously watching one of those vhs tapes and longing for it. I finally got to go a several years ago(opening day of frozen) and I think I cried because I was in my feelings the whole time LOL. Nothing will ever beat it for me.
I just got back from spending my birthday in Epcot on Sunday and I bought the strawberry mochi from the Japan pavilion because Tyler always raves about it haha! I have always loved your videos and I'm so happy you have started this podcast :)
Hollywood Studios #1 = Star Tours. 😂 ok not really, that ride is just nostalgic for me. My real #1 is Batuu at night right before park closes with all the cool lights and no people. Great photo ops!
Hi Jess and Tyler!! I know these podcasts are about Disney, but would y'all consider doing a Universal Studios podcast? I don't know if you guys have been to the one in California, but tips and such would be helpful for my family, even if you've only been to the one in Florida. We're going to the one in Cali in May, and I want to try and get the most out of it. Thank you, and I love these podcasts!!!
I did my Disney college program at Epcot and I worked at electric umbrella and fountain view Ice cream both don’t exist anymore lol but Epcot has a special place in my heart! Loved this and I truly agree with all of these
Never been to Dworld, I'm a die-hard, life-long DLAND goer and fan. But I love the podcast anyway! I'd watch you two talk about paint drying. lol. XOXO!
Oh my gosh. Jessica I've been. Following your makeup channel forever. Just found disney n I'm obsessed as I am also disney lover. Thanks for sharing I'm heading there soon.
My husband and I love you guys! Tyler I had a visceral reaction when you listed spaceship earth at 10!! I couldn’t believe it wasn’t farther up list! Haha then Jess comes for the save and comments same thing!!! So glad you guys are doing Disney podcast/video now.. been watching Jess channel since 2014 :) keep it up!!
I rode Ellen's Energy ride in 2005 and I was SO shocked when the theater opened and we started moving. It was my first time at Disney World and my mind was blown!!!
When you mentioned taking GiGi on a ride and whether or not it's too thrilling, I was thrown back into my very first trip to Disney World. I was four and a half and just tall enough for Space Mountain. And I loved it. I made my mom ride it with me like four times. But I was too scared for Splash Mountain so I stayed behind with my dad and little sister while my mom and big sister rode. About five minutes after my mom and sister got in line, I wanted to go join them, but couldn't (because I was four so no way was my dad letting me go find them on my own). But wow, I feel like I have more memories from that trip than any other subsequent trip (I've probably been like 5 more times since then).
I rode Guardians 5 weeks pregnant and told my sister that day because she took me as her plus one to a cast member event and we had the opportunity to ride it with almost NO WAIT and I couldn’t pass it up because I knew it was going to be a long time until I would be able to get on it. 37 weeks now baby is fine and it’s one of my favorite rides!
Was drinking coffee while watching and now I am singing Coffee to the tune of Company..."We've got coffee...!" Thought that was especially appropriate with you both.
Tyler-I can’t believe that taking a picture at the EPCOT Poop Wall didn’t make your honorable mention list. 😂 I know I saw that on one of your vlogs a long time ago. Maybe the Babymoon series? Absolutely love that y’all FINALLY got your podcast going & I will enjoy every nerdy Disney second of each episode. Thank you both for the fun content!
I went to Disney for the first time in 2021 and seeing Harmonious was a highlight of our trip! The arrangement of the music and the fireworks were amazing and I personally liked it better than Enchantment at MK
How in the world have you guys never played the where I would live in WDW game?? My sister and I have literally spent an entire park day walking around and debating on which fake home/apartment would be the best/worst to live in. There are so many factors. Transportation access, parade routes, closest restaurants, access to coffee, firework views, foot traffic... it's very involved to say the least.
Ok if Tyler is allowed to include the old Test Track then I have to say it - my #1 and #2 would be Horizons and the ORIGINAL Journey Into Imagination ride. I love EPCOT Center (heehee) but these long-gone classics were extraordinary.
Harmonious is so good! It makes me sad it wasn’t super well received. The arrangements on it are incredible and I think some people just dont realize the musical genius that it is. HEA is still my fave show of all time but I do really like harmonious!
HOORAY! Another episode! I hated Epcot as a kid but Tyler planned our honeymoon to Epcot and MK and Epcot was my favorite somehow 🥰 PS: the B-roll is AMAZING! Love it
Love your podcast ❤ funny you started with Epcot I am 68 yrs old have been to Disney several times mostly with my boys and grandkids. I was discussing with my fiancé when asked where I would like to go I said EPCOT. I loved it. I will definitely reach out to People Movers travel when I am ready to book my trip 😊
