It was also a great source for news and trip planning for other SoCal theme parks and attractions from SoCal locals. Now its none of that. Its now mostly a Disneyland vs Disney World podcast- a topic which has been run into the ground by countless other podcasts.

This was the best weekly disneyland podcast. Back to moustalgia I go. This show has lost me. Re-vamp is very disappointing. Keep Ryno, dump Pete. I am a Disneyland local. I grew up in San Diego and have gone to Disneyland religiously since I was a child. The Disneyland show was my gateway into the broader DIS brand because they spent a whole hour talking about the park I Love from the vantage point of semi locals.

The DIS is slowly driving me away, as a young person and a woman. Still listening, still disappointed. Sound quality has improved. This is no longer my go-to podcast. Gone are the tips and hints and trivia that made navigating the CA resort easier and enjoyable. I miss my Disneyland Team! Ruined my favorite podcast.

I used to listen to this podcast every week and use it to plan my disneyland trips. It was my favorite podcast. They changed the whole thing and now I cant even get through an episode it is so bad. It used to be up to date, well researched information on Disneyland with interesting opinions.

Disneyland family holiday: Still the happiest place on earth

Now it is different annoying people who just babble and uninteresting opinions on WDW vs Disneyland that are not researched. So sad to see my favorite podcast go. I wish the old team was back. Long time listener and I am getting close to dropping this podcast. Love the new format!

I had a hard time connecting to the old version. Thank you, Pete, for bringing this perspective! Also, Tyler and Katrina are great-I like the dynamics they bring to you and Rhino! Used to be good. This show was very informative and hosted by a group who knew the Disneyland Park inside and out.

Unfortunately that changed with the relaunch. The well researched and well informed segments on the area hotels, rides and restaurants are a thing of the past. If you enjoy discussion on coffee mugs and why churros are popular then this show is for you. DL is treated as an exotic foreign species, to be understood only in comparison to WDW. This or similar phrasing pops up repeatedly, and really drives home the point that DL is an afterthought.

Was very helpful in planning our famiy's Disneyland vacation.

I'm glad they are back. Not a great podcast anymore. By CA Dis Nerd. Please bring back the old team. This is now a Disney World podcast not Disneyland anymore! Not all change is good. More like well at Disney World we do this. I used to be so excited to listen every week. Just would be helpful to spell that out - thanks! By Tim from Tulare, CA. Since it is weekly and live on Sunday nights the information is current and relavent. Wish they would come back soon. I have tried to like it. It's a complete letdown from the original show.

This group of "experts" They have NO chemistry. They shouldn't have a radio show or podcast, they can't even speak well on mike.

I spend more time waiting out pauses. I decided to listen to a more recent episode for the information and it's just as ghastly as before. After just seven weeks of operation, the park welcomes its one millionth guest. Four years after opening, Disneyland adds the Matterhorn, a metre-high mountain bobsled adventure, to Fantasyland, and the eight-vessel Submarine Voyage attraction to Tomorrowland.

Pirates of the Caribbean, an attraction featuring dozens of audio-animatronics characters, is launched in New Orleans Square, evolving into one of the most popular Disney attractions. After two years of construction, Space Mountain opens in Tomorrowland. In the park's newly dubbed Critter Country, the The flume attraction takes riders on a journey through swamps and bayous, culminating in a five-storey drop over a waterfall into a briar patch. As the newest "land" in Disneyland, Mickey's Toontown features the wacky adventures of Roger Rabbit's Car-toon Spin and plenty of other adventures for visitors of all ages.

Based on the popular action adventure films created by George Lucas, the Indiana Jones Adventures opens with jungle transports taking visitors on an exciting archeological journey. The ride-through, interactive adventure allows visitors to enter into a high-energy 4D carnival midway hosted by Toy Story characters. World of Color, a night-time spectacular featuring nearly colourful fountains dancing to animation projected on a water screen the size of a football field, opens at Disney California Adventure Park. At Disneyland Park, Fantasy Faire, a picturesque village square, welcomes visitors to meet Disney's fairy tale heroes and heroines.

Exactly 45 years, six months and 22 days after Walt opened his original theme park, at 8am, Disney California Adventure park opened to the public. The opening came 10 years after The Walt Disney Company announced that it would develop the Disneyland Resort, a multi-day destination that would include two parks, three hotels and the Downtown Disney entertainment district. If you have kids who are tweens or teens, this is a better experience.

The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror lives up to its name, the haunted lift lurching gut-wrenchingly up and down 13 stories. California Screamin', one of the park's original rides, is equally heart-stopping and stomach-dropping, with a high-speed loop-the-loop. There are two queues: It's a lovely view from the top, but avoid this ride if you suffer from vertigo, or are afraid of heights. For young kids, choose The Little Mermaid: The most popular ride in the park, Radiator Springs Racers, is superbly conceived and executed: After a leisurely drive through the mountains, you finish with a fast-paced duel, where — if you're Australian — you holler "Bring it on!

Aside from Mater's Junkyard Jamboree, a teacup-like ride, the rest of Cars Land is a tourist trap, selling overpriced food and junky souvenirs. On a hot day, you'll have fun on the Grizzly River Run. There are a few steep drops, but you're guaranteed to get wet. After consuming their body weight in sugary treats, kids can burn it off on the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail: As a dedicated journalist, I suffer through the stage show, accompanied by snippets from the movie, amongst the squealing tots. It's pitched perfectly at toddlers, but I could only cope with 15 minutes before I almost ripped my own face off.

Regardless, it's a magnificent spectacle, guaranteed to put a smile on your face. As you would expect, this is one of the best hotels in the world for kids. It ticks all the boxes: The rooms are large, with two queen beds and one daybed. Cast members do magic tricks for the kids, while sharing stories about the Disney legend. You can pick their brains for insider information on which rides have the longest queues, how to manage your FASTPASSes, and where to get the best view for the shows. Oh, and all drinks are free.

Yes, it costs a little more, but it's worth every cent. And you don't have to buy any food in Downtown Disney. In fact, a room at this resort is extremely good value. The Character Breakfasts — in which Minnie, Goofy, or the Chipmunks are waiters — are pricey, but worth it. So it seems the grande dame of theme parks is ageing elegantly. The vast majority of shows and rides are running smoothly. And there are enough new attractions to keep you coming back. Do book a stay at the Disney hotel for the Extra Magic Hour. Or, buy tickets that include one Magic Morning.
