On this week’s show, Jeremy and Derek give the lowdown on their week spent in Anaheim. Tune in as they review Disneyland’s newest nighttime shows, spill the details about Club 33, talk about their experience at Napa Rose’s chef’s counter, and gush about all of the other exciting things happening in celebration of Disneyland’s 60th anniversary.

Also on episode 53, Matt holds nothing back as he reports on Magic Kingdom’s “Night of Joy,” which was held September 11-12 in Walt Disney World.

50: The Magic Kingdom Mountains

It’s all about the mountains on this week’s episode of The Mad Chatters Podcast. We dig through the history books and scour the Walt Disney Archives to bring you the stories of how Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and Splash Mountain came to be, as well as the never-realized attractions that were scrapped to make way for the three peaks of Magic Kingdom.

Before that, Jeremy shares his observations from the day he spent at Magic Kingdom, and we discuss the latest news from around Walt Disney World. In the new segment Mad Chatter Top 10, we count down the Top 10 Signs You’re at a Knockoff Disney Park. Plus, we announce a special giveaway in honor of our 50th episode.
