Should Expedition Everest Be Rethemed to an IP? - MOW #253 Jan 16, 2019

On this episode, Eli asks whether or not Expedition Everest should be rethemed to an IP attraction? This conversation comes on the heels of the Disney-fan firestorm that was created when Bob Iger’s Barron’s article was released. To summarize the part of the article that caused the Disney-fan discomfort, it is stated that interest from a potential audience is higher with an IP-based attraction rather than a nondescript coaster based on India somewhere. The article has since been edited to remove any indication of that statement.

On this episode, we once again flex our creative muscles and do some armchair imagineering on our own with a new segment we call, Classic? Or TRASH IT!

The way this segment works is as follows. We decided on a park to work on...in this case, we chose the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World. Then, we each chose a land to work on so that we did not all work on the same thing. Within each land, we chose an attraction to reimagine.

Once you have heard our proposals, you get to vote on each one of our projects. You can either keep the Classic, or vote to TRASH IT and replace it with our new vision. Watch for a poll to pop up the same day we release this show. We will feature the results of our poll on an upcoming episode.

Top 5 Parks Exclusive Characters - MOW #162 Apr 19, 2017

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Harambe! On this episode, our list for the Top 5 Disney Parks Exclusive Characters and we also talk about the WDW Uber-like service and the WDW Club 33 stories that came out recently.

In the Queue, we talk about two news stories that have come up recently: Disney -Uber-like service and Club 33 coming to Walt Disney World. Below are links to the articles we referenced in our discussion.

For today’s Hub, we discuss our Top 5 Disney Parks Exclusive Characters. What does this mean? These are characters whose sole purpose was for a particular attraction; the character has no external properties. A prime example of this would be Figment from the Journey Into Imagination with Figment attraction.

New Countries for EPCOT - MOW #160 Apr 05, 2017

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Harambe! On this episode, we add new countries for EPCOT’s World Showcase. We also take a little time to address a couple of listener emails in Guest Services.

Recently, rumors of Spain and Brazil coming to World Showcase have been circulating the Disney-fan universe and have been ever-present in conversation as of late. In light of this, we decided to get super-creative once again and do some armchair imagineering. We each present our ideas of what other countries we would like to see added and how we would present them. This is not a criticism in which we think these would be better than Spain or Brazil. These are just other ideas we also think would be good.

In Guest Services today, we have stuff from our mailbag. We open two PHYSICAL letters that we received in our PHYSICAL mailing address: one from Officer MOWican and one from the folks at Mad Hatter Radio.

In the Hub, we bring you the first in a two-part series in which we look back on 2016. We examine where Magic Our Way has been from the first show released in 2016 (Mouse Mingle Interview w/Dave Tavres) up until this episode. Then, we discuss things that took place in the Disney Universe in 2016 and look forward to what 2017 has in store.

The year, 2016, became the year of the interview for Magic Our Way. We have experienced every range of emotion when conducting these interviews and we have been fortunate to be able to interview important folks in the Disney universe such as Paul Torrigino, Matt Hochberg, and Lee Cockerell. And, we are looking to get better at it in 2017 with even more interviews. This was also the year in which Danny created our latest logo back in July.

The year, 2017, has some things that we are looking forward to like, Coco and Guardians of the Galaxy 2. It also has some things that we are kinda lukewarm about such as Avatarland, Cars 3, and the latest Pirates movie.

Dream It! Screw It! Author Geoffrey Golden - MOW #144 Dec 07, 2016

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Harambe! On our show this week, we welcome back two very special guests, Aimee and Andy. and we are talkin’ about the book, Dream It! Screw It! by Geoffrey Golden.

Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast, a New Orleans based Disney fan podcast. Thank you for listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. Your feedback is appreciated and we are committed to listening to our audience.

On today’s show, we have Danny, Kevin, and Eli of www.ivorycomics.com,

Please note: the Magic Our Way Podcast is not affiliated with the Walt Disney Company or its entities. All opinions expressed therein are solely those of the Magic Our Way podcast. No animals were harmed in the making of this podcast.

For The Hub topic this week, we are talkin’ about the book, Dream It! Screw It! with author, Geoffrey Golden.

Blurb from the book.

“Disney theme park “Imagineers” think up hundreds of ideas for rides and attractions that never get used. But no Imagineer has created more terrible and rejected ideas than Dipp Disney. Walt’s cousin was a sloppy drunk, a complete idiot, and a loveable showman, whose 7000 attraction ideas never saw the light of day... until now.

This mock homage to Disney Imagineering contains Dipp’s most ridiculous concepts, like the Haunted Mansons, the Hindenburg Sky Resort, and Judge Doom’s Toon Execution Room. Includes concept art, photos and stories spanning decades.”

Learn about some of our favorite Dipp Disney attraction ideas and learn a little something about the man who retold this tall tale. This book is a very entertaining read and is chock full of details. We were blown away by the illustrations in the book. This is a extremely well put together book.

Find Geoffrey Golden at the following places.

Twitter: @GeoffreyGolden
iTunes: Two Packs, a trading card comedy podcast

You can purchase Dream It! Screw It! At the following places.

Your local indie bookstore
Amazon
DevestatorPress.com (Buy it from here and Geoffrey will sign it for you!)

This book makes a great gift for any Disney Parks fan out there. Which Dipp attraction is your favorite?

Moana & Sexism: A Movie Review - MOW #143 Nov 30, 2016

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Harambe! On our show this week, we welcome back two very special guests, Aimee and Andy. and we are talkin’ about Moana and Sexism! It’s a movie review!

Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast, a New Orleans based Disney fan podcast. Thank you for listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. Your feedback is appreciated and we are committed to listening to our audience.

On today’s show, we have Danny, Kevin, Eli of www.ivorycomics.com, and Lee of magicalmomentsvacations.com. We are joined by Aimee and Andy.

Please note: the Magic Our Way Podcast is not affiliated with the Walt Disney Company or its entities. All opinions expressed therein are solely those of the Magic Our Way podcast. No animals were harmed in the making of this podcast.

For The Hub topic this week, we are talkin’ about Moana and Sexism with Aimee and Andy. It’s a movie review!

Moana is a Walt Disney Animation feature released on November 23, 2016 in the USA. It came out just in time for the 2016 holiday season.

From IMDB: “In Ancient Polynesia, when a terrible curse incurred by Maui reaches an impetuous Chieftain's daughter's island, [Moana], she answers the Ocean's call to seek out the demigod, [Maui], to set things right”.

In the course of our discussion, we entertain the topic of sexism in Disney animated movies. We know the pendulum has been at one particular end throughout the years. But, we are wondering if that pendulum has completely swung to the other side today.

Would you bring your son to watch this movie? Would you bring your daughter to watch this movie?

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Harambe! It is our Halloween Special for 2016. We are discussing Walt Disney World VIP Tours with our very own superfan, Dr. MoWHOcan aka Leisa Mundy.

Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast, a New Orleans based Disney fan podcast. Thank you for listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. Your feedback is appreciated and we are committed to listening to our audience.

For The Hub topic this week, Dr. MoWHOcan returns to talk about her Hurricane Matthew interrupted trip. But, on this show, we are discussing her experience with the Walt Disney World “plaids.”

Dr. MoWHOcan and her family went on a VIP Tour of Walt Disney World and we discuss all of the ins and outs of her experience, everything from cost to what she did and how she did it.

Because we are a show that likes to examine lists that people release, we compare Dr. MoWHOcan’s experience on the VIP Tour to this list entitled “5 Great Reasons to Book a VIP Tour at Disney World” which was published on May 23, 2016.

We refer to the following list of rules set in this website below. http://freaky_freya.tripod.com/horror_movie_rules.htm.

The Disney Princesses we examine are listed on this website: http://princess.disney.com/ and we do include Anna. But, we exclude Sofia and Elena of Avalor.

With a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 meaning “THAT PRINCESS IS TOAST” and 5 meaning “THAT PRINCESS IF BUFFY,” we each rate the Disney princesses and rank them by total score.

Is there one that reigns supreme or will we have to go to further rounds to find our ULTIMATE WARRIOR PRINCESS? Listen now to find out.

For The Hub topic this week, we are talking about Hurricane Matthew and Walt Disney World. We have an exclusive interview with Dr. MoWHOcan (aka Leisa Mundy), a MOWican who is currently on vacation at Walt Disney World at the same time Hurricane Matthew is slated to come through the area.

At the time of this recording, Hurricane Matthew was a category 4 hurricane threatening the east coasts of Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. Walt Disney World was shown as being on the west side of Hurricane Matthew’s CONE OF PROBABILITY.

This is only the fourth time that Walt Disney World has closed its doors for a hurricane event since it opened in October 1, 1971. What we hope to learn from our discussion with Dr. MoWHOcan is how Walt Disney World cares for its guests during a time like this. Dr. MoWHOcan was staying at the Contemporary Resort at the time of this interview.

You can follow Dr. MoWHOcan at this Facebook page, Festival of Disney Fans, and see her Facebook live reports during this time.

To clarify, there were online petitions to give Elsa a girlfriend and to give Captain America a boyfriend on future releases from the Disney company. Check out the stories at the following websites:

Anna

PLEASE NOTE: This episode was recorded several weeks ago.

Also, our release of this episode now coincides with J.J. Abrams’ recent announcement that future Star Wars movies could possibly contain homosexual characters.

Park It: Guardians of the Galaxy - MOW #125 Jul 12, 2016

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Harambe! It’s a Queue show featuring Park It: Guardians of the Galaxy! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We are a New Orleans based Disney fan podcast. We appreciate your listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. We also appreciate your feedback and are committed to listening to our audience.

On today’s show, we have Danny, Kevin, Lee-an agent of www.magicalmomentsvacations.com, and Eli of www.ivorycomics.com. Kevin is once again away on assignment.

Please note: the Magic Our Way Podcast is not affiliated with the Walt Disney Company or its entities. All opinions expressed therein are solely those of the Magic Our Way podcast. No animals were harmed in the making of this podcast.

Welcome to the QUEUE and for this episode, the boys tackle the latest in Disney related news stories that we are interested in discussing. We discuss the following news stories on this episode.

Removal of all aligator reference in WDW
Muppets coming to Liberty Square
RUMOR: Pixar’s Coco in Mexican Pavillion?!?!?!?!
Changes to Disney Dining Plan
Guardians of the Galaxy in the Parks

Based on the last news topic, we decided to exercise our creative muscle and feature a Park It segment showing how we would put Guardians of the Galaxy into the parks. The only rules that we followed are 1) it had to be a practical and 2) each one of us was assigned an attraction type.

The project has to be practical. We make Guardians of the Galaxy work in such a way that it could be considered as an option by the Walt Disney Company. This means no building of new parks or tearing down massive amounts of infrastructure and buildings; that would be downright expensive.

Our assigned attraction types are listed below.

Eli: play area/exhibit
Lee: roller coaster
Danny: 3D show or theater experience
Kevin: dark ride

Trip Report: Aaron & Danny - MOW #123B Jun 30, 2016

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Harambe! It’s the second half of Aaron and Danny’s Trip Report! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We are a New Orleans based Disney fan podcast. We appreciate your listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. We also appreciate your feedback and are committed to listening to our audience.

On today’s show, we have Danny, Kevin, Lee-an agent of www.magicalmomentsvacations.com, and Eli of www.ivorycomics.com.

Please note: the Magic Our Way Podcast is not affiliated with the Walt Disney Company or its entities. All opinions expressed therein are solely those of the Magic Our Way podcast. No animals were harmed in the making of this podcast.

Welcome to the HUB and for this episode, the boys welcome back Danny’s brother-in-law, Aaron, as we discuss Danny’s family trip to Walt Disney World in June of 2016. This show will arrive in two parts and, as a result, be sure to check out Trip Report: Aaron and Danny - 123A will be released earlier this week.

Aaron was around during the early days of the Magic Our Way podcast. You can find him on MOW Field Reports 1, 2, 3, & 4 (the famous Beers on the Balcony episodes) and on the very popular MOW #010: The Disney Vacation Club - The Big Picture in Decision Making.

In this Trip Report, we discuss several things regarding Aaron and Danny’ trip to Walt Disney World. They dine at Morimoto Asia in Disney Springs and have quite the tale to tell regarding their experience. Disney Transportation also plays a big part in their trip: a person who hasn’t been there in a while experiences changes that have been in effect that still do not make sense to this day. And, there is much more.

This is a tough love episode. We care fiercely about the product that Mr. Walt Disney has produced. We are a podcast that wants both sides of the story to be presented so that you can make an educated decision. Call it yin to everyone’s yang or maybe we bring balance to the force. Exercise that critical thinking muscle.

For this special edition of the Magic Our Way podcast, we felt it was a good time to talk about the events that have happened down in Orlando recently: Pulse Orlando Nightclub and Ultra Lounge and the alligator incident on the Grand Floridian beach. Some time has passed and hopefully emotions have been reigned in to ensure clear thought resulting in a thorough discussion.

We want any of the listeners and MOWicans who have been affected by the tragedies in Orlando to know that you are in our prayers and thoughts and you will always have a listening ear on the Magic Our Way podcast if you need one. We offer our honest and truest thoughts and we welcome any of you to do the same.

Finding Dory: A Movie Review - MOW #122 Jun 21, 2016

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Harambe! Finding Dory! Spoiler Alert! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We are a New Orleans based Disney fan podcast. We appreciate your listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. We also appreciate your feedback and are committed to listening to our audience.

On today’s show, we have Danny and Lee-an agent of www.magicalmomentsvacations.com.

Please note: the Magic Our Way Podcast is not affiliated with the Walt Disney Company or its entities. All opinions expressed therein are solely those of the Magic Our Way podcast. No animals were harmed in the making of this podcast.

Welcome to the HUB and for this episode, Danny and Lee review the movie, Finding Dory which came out in theaters in the United States of America on June 17, 2016.

Thirteen years ago on May 30, 2003, Pixar gave us a story about a father on a desperate search to find the last remaining member of his family. It took him from his home in a coral reef to the EAC (Eastern Australian Current) to a forest of jellyfish and more.

In 2016, the story is reversed. In Finding Nemo, the parent is looking for the child; in Finding Dory, the child is looking for the parent. And, as you can judge by the title, fun and adventure ensue because of the central character.

Listen to what Danny and Lee thought about this movie and be sure to contact us and let us know what you thought about it. WARNING: it is a spoiler filled episode. So, if you have not seen the movie, wait to listen to this episode until after you have seen it. If you are not bothered by spoilers, by all means, listen away.

The rules are as follows:

Create one quick service restaurant based on an attraction
Create one table service restaurant based on an attraction
Create a menu, signature dishes, etc.
Each person gets ones park to create with
- Magic Kingdom: Danny
- Epcot: Eli
- Hollywood Studios: Lee
- Animal Kingdom: Kevin

And that’s it! Quick, simple, creative, and fun!

Walt Disney World Trip Report with Andy and Aimee - MOW #112 Apr 12, 2016

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We are a New Orleans based Disney fan podcast. We appreciate your listening to our show and we hope it brings a smile to your face. We also appreciate your feedback and are committed to listening to our audience.

On today’s show, we have Kevin, Danny, Eli of www.ivorycomics.com, and Lee of Magical Moments Vacations for this episode.

Please note: the Magic Our Way Podcast is not affiliated with the Walt Disney Company or its entities. All opinions expressed therein are solely those of the Magic Our Way podcast. No animals were harmed in the making of this podcast.

In the QUEUE, Lee talks about the recent upgrades and changes to the Walt Disney World Fastpass system that have come online recently.

Fellow MOWicans, ladies, and gentlemen. In the HUB, we present the last of our current series of shows with Andy and Aimee.

Andy and Aimee are old podcasting friends from our And Another Thing podcast days. They have recently taken a trip down to Walt Disney World and have renewed their love for the place.

They are a couple who wasn’t sure if they could go to Walt Disney World because they were not kids themselves OR they did not have kids to bring. Needless to say, after this trip and after our encouragement, their thoughts on this subject drastically changed.

On this episode, we present a series of mini-segments in which we discuss various topics based around their trip. The following are the topics we cover.

They offer their thoughts regarding being a couple without kids in Walt Disney World. There had been apprehension about going by themselves because they felt that it wasn’t for them since they didn’t have kids. They did not think they could go and enjoy themselves as adults. This segment is not for our listeners, but rather for the friends of our listeners.
They talk about their stay at All Star Music.
They talk about their experience at Disney Springs.
We also talk about their trip off-property to Universal Studios Orlando and their experience at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
Learning from the experience of this trip, they talk about what they would do differently the next time they travel to Walt Disney World.
They talk about what parks they visited. They made it to all of the Walt Disney World parks with the exception of Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
They also offer their thoughts on the Disney Dining Plan and Signature Dining at Walt Disney World.

Louisiana folk talkin’ about food in Walt Disney World? This show is a no-brainer! You want to hear this review of the California Grill and Andy and Aimee’s dining experience there. This is how they started out their trip and needless to say, they started their trip with a bang.

This is there first time dining at this restaurant. They scheduled a dining time around Wishes on their first night in Walt Disney World and got to experience that on the balcony.

Listen to their thoughts on this restaurant. But, we warn you: you might be hungry after hearing this and that’s ok. Go eat!

They also offer their thoughts on the Disney Dining Plan and Signature Dining at Walt Disney World.

They also briefly recount their other dining experiences on the trip.

Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie
Coral Reef Restaurant
Chefs de France
Ragland Road
Be Our Guest
Min and Bill’s Dockside Diner
and MORE!

Fellow MOWicans, ladies, and gentlemen. This show is a QUEUE show. But, the news that we cover in this episode is not particularly pleasant.

We are joined by old podcasting friends of ours from our And Another Thing days, Andy, and Aimee. They have recently taken a trip down to Walt Disney World and have renewed their love for the place.

A lot of the stories that have recently come out from the Disney Company are not something that makes us feel all nice and flowery. Since we are a podcast that prides itself on presenting every opinion, we offer our opinions on the following news items.

Disney floats the hotel resort fee possibility in a survey

Suicide at the Contemporary Hotel?

Lawsuit over an amputated thumb on the Disney Cruise Line.

Orlando Sentinel

Fire at Animal Kingdom’s Festival of the Lion King

Fastpasses for Wishes and Parade are going away

Extra Magic Hours Paid Events

Narcoossee’s Surf and Turf no longer on Disney Dining Plan

Fellow MOWicans, ladies, and gentlemen. For the Hub, this week, we present a gentleman who is a former Walt Disney World cast member. He is the proprietor of http://disneybythenumbers.com and co-host of the Disney Parks Podcast.

He has released a new book entitled Disney By The Numbers: Facts and Figures About The Walt Disney World Theme Parks and Resorts.

Fellow MOWicans, ladies, and gentlemen, enough reading, I present to you former Walt Disney World castmember, Tony Caselnova. Listen to his stories and learn more about his new book of Walt Disney World facts.

This particular episode is a continuation of our discussion that we had with Tony. Unlike show #108, where we concentrated our discussion on his book, this episode just has Tony and the Magic Our Way boys just plain old talkin’ about various Disney stuff. We had a lot of fun talking with Tony Casanova and we want to make sure that we shared it all with you.
