    From the dazzling debut of Captain EO—a groundbreaking 3D Michael Jackson spectacle—to the arrival of Star Tours and the birth of Disney Dollars, Disneyland in the late 80s and early 90s was a whirlwind of innovation and spectacle.

    Ep. 58 | Disneyland 1976-1985
    Jun 16 2025
    EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
    Last week, we wrapped up Disneyland’s second decade, and now we’re diving headfirst into the incredible changes of the late 1970s and early 1980s. This era saw the park celebrate America’s Bicentennial, welcome iconic attractions like Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and debut the beloved Main Street Electrical Parade. We watched Fantasyland transform into a Bavarian fairytale, ticket books disappear in favor of single admission, and Disneyland finally open its gates 365 days a year. With new leadership, legendary parades, and milestone celebrations, Disneyland’s third decade was truly a time of innovation, nostalgia, and magic for millions of guests.

    Ep. 56 | Disneyland 1955-1965
    Jun 2 2025
    EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
    Disneyland was the start of the most magical place on Earth. (at least for all of us and millions of other fans) Walt Disney once sat on a bench at Griffith Park in Los Angeles watching his daughters Diane and Sharon ride a merry go round when he came up with the idea of a place where adults and their children could go and have fun together.

    Ep. 55 | Favorite Disney Sidekicks
    May 26 2025
    EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
    Disney movies have captivated us with heroes, heroines and villains as we ride through country sides, sail across oceans and feast in castles. But what we forget to credit is the sidekicks. Where would the stories take us if the sidekicks didn’t give us guidance, wisdom, comedy and blunder.
