46: Previewing the D23 Expo

Disney nerds . . . Assemble! On August 14-16, the fourth D23 Expo will be held in Anaheim, featuring special speakers (John Lasseter!), celebrity guests (Ellen DeGeneres? Chris Evans? George Lucas?), anniversary celebrations (Happy 20th, A Goofy Movie!), and informative panels on everything from Disney films to Disney parks to Disney’s earliest merchandise. On this week’s show, we preview some of the buzziest panels, talk about which ones we wish we could attend, and share our hopes for the big announcements that are bound to come out of the expo.

But first, in the segment The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, we critique the best and worst parade floats at Walt Disney World. Plus, we go another round of 11-Second Rants.

40: “What Used to Be There?” The Gone But Not Forgotten (and Not Totally Gone) Areas of WDW

A deserted island, an overgrown water park, a former showcase of beloved attractions that’s now nothing more than an exhibit hall…

Walt Disney World is home to several buildings and areas that are mere shells of what they used to be. On episode 40, we do a deep dive into these all-but-abandoned parts of the parks, not to mourn what used to be, but to keep guests informed, to celebrate the past, and to talk about the potential future. Areas discussed include the Wonders of Life pavilion, ImageWorks, The Odyssey, and more.

In this week’s round of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, we critique the themed uniforms worn by various Cast Members throughout WDW. Plus, we sound off about our biggest pet peeves in 11-Second Rants.

24: One and Done – Disney Attractions We Probably Won’t Experience Again

Whether because they made us sick, bored us to tears, or left us asking, “Why?” there are some Disney experiences we are perfectly content to never have again. This week we list the foods, rides, shows, and more that best fit the category “One and Done.”

In a new segment called “You Be the Judge,” we go head to head in Disney debates while the third Chatter chooses a winner. Plus, we unburden ourselves with some 11-Second Rants. It all happens on episode 24 of The Mad Chatters Podcast!

16: Disney Urban Legends – Fact Vs. Fiction

Is Walt Disney World home to a private, hidden club? Has anyone died on a Disney attraction? Do the Disney films have underlying messages that aren’t suitable for kids? This week we discuss the most popular Disney urban legends, separating the real stories from the myths.

In another Resort Roundup, we turn our attention to Disney’s Contemporary Resort, next door to Magic Kingdom. We focus on the architecture, the food, and the perks of staying there.

Plus, we talk about the new bungalows at Polynesian Village Resort, report on the progress of the new Starbucks at Hollywood Studios, and let off some steam in another round of 11-Second Rants.
