12: Christmas at the Parks – On the Scene

Leave a comment

Christmas is in full swing at the parks, and Matthew and Jeremy were on the scene! On this week’s episode they report on the Candlelight Processional in Epcot, Holidays Around the World in World Showcase, Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party in Magic Kingdom, and other holiday happenings.

Keeping in the Christmas spirit, the three of us devise elaborate additions to the parks that we think will make the perfect gifts for each other. We even create a few gifts for ourselves, as well, in the segment “All I want for Christmas from Disney World is . . .”

11: Reimagining The Great Movie Ride

Leave a comment

We say, “Hooray for Hollywood” on this week’s episode of The Mad Chatters Podcast as we discuss the iconic movie scenes we would like to see in The Great Movie Ride. In light of the recent announcement that TCM is the ride’s new sponsor, we do some blue-sky thinking and reimagine the attraction from start to finish. Before that, Jeremy and Derek talk about their visit to the Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco, and the chatters share a few bizarre stories from their time at the parks during another round of “Did That Just Happen?”

Who are the Mad Chatters?

Leave a comment

Mad Chatter Derek here.

If you came to this page because you heard about the Mad Chatters and wanted to know what makes us so mad and chatty, welcome! If you somehow stumbled across this site on accident while looking for a chat room full of angry internet trolls, welcome! (Although I’m sorry to say these are not the trolls you’re looking for.)

My fellow Mad Chatters Matt and Jeremy and I have been fans and frequenters of Walt Disney World for many years. We wanted to create a place where we could freely talk about that magical place we all love, and we wanted to include other fans in the conversation.

Meeting the mice at Town Square Theater

Meeting the mice at Town Square Theater

On this site you’ll occasionally find our thoughts on things we love about the parks (resort dining!) and things we’d love to see go away (Stitch. Always Stitch.). You also might be able to read a few stories from our past trips or see pictures from our upcoming trips. If you came here on purpose, we trust that you, too, share our passion for all things Disney, and we hope you enjoy our virtual travels around the World.

Most importantly, we hope you will look for our first podcast, coming soon to an Android/iPod/bendable iPhone 6 Plus near you. There you can join our discussions, debates, gushings, and the occasional rant about Walt Disney World and the rest of the Disney universe.

Until then, start thinking about what you want us to talk about, and send your ideas to comments@madchatters.net. Remember, no ideas are stupid or crazy. After all, most everyone’s mad here.
