Magic Our Way - Artistic Buffs Talkin' Disney Stuff

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We are back with a new series of shows related to our favorite topic: all things magical, but mostly Disney!!! We are so glad to be back recording again as this gives us an escape from our daily life. As we have stated before, we may take breaks now and then, but we are not going away anytime soon. Thank you for your patience! This week, we decided to do another BIG Queue show because there are so many things for us to talk about. This week we talk about iTunes placement. It seems like we are creeping up among the ranks of known Disney podcasts. We’re rubbing shoulder-to-shoulder with one of our favorite podcasters. That is always exciting. Also, in response to the release of Avatar Land concept art, we offer our opinions once again regarding this highly debatable land. And, because Kevin will be experiencing it for the first time, we decided to discuss as much of what we know regarding the new Magicband system. We talk pros and co

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We are back with a new series of shows related to our favorite topic: all things magical, but mostly Disney!!! We are so glad to be back recording again as this gives us an escape from our daily life. As we have stated before, we may take breaks now and then, but we are not going away anytime soon. Thank you for your patience! This week, since we have a lot of catching up to do, we decided to do another BIG Queue show so that we can offer our opinions on things that have happened in the past several months. Now, as a disclaimer, I would like to say that we actually recorded this show about a month ago. So, there will be some recent events that we will have not commented on yet. But, rest assured, we will. On this episode we talk about the Polynesian DVC, the new California Grill, the NEW Guest Assistance Program, and much, much more!!! Plus, I bring back an old segment: I BEG TO DIFFER. You’ll want to hear it.  As always, if you li

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. It is time for a fresh, uplifting show!!! And, the topic we have chosen to accomplish this is ROMANCE!!! Let’s go!!! This week, we once again address several topics which peaked our interest for discussion while waiting in the Queue. In this case, we enrich our literary minds by discussing books that are in the works such as a comic book, a graphic novel, and Marty Sklar’s new book, Dream It! Do it!: My Half-Century Creating Disney’s Magic Kingdoms, which is coming out on August 13, 2013.  In the Hub, we talk about how to have a romantic time in Walt Disney World. Yes, you read that correctly! Couples can have a romantic time in Disney World....should one have thorough planning of said experience. We gladly share some of our tips of things to do and not to do when planning a romantic romp through the parks. Itineraries...YES, we came up with our own versions of a one day romantic experience at Disney World. Danny will take the “blu

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. It is time for part 2 of our mind blowing and rather mentally exhausting discussion into Jon Negroni’s Pixar Theory.  This week, we once again address several topics which peaked our interest for discussion while waiting in the Queue. The Festival of the Lion King finally settles on its home. Disneyland has some last minute, end-of-the-summer vacation deals. Disney sets to make the Artemis Fowl series of books into a series of movies based around this character. And, we decide to look at another one of Bob’s polls from All In WDW. This time, we talk about the results of the King of the World poll he conducted in April 2013. This poll set out to see which attraction was deemed the best in the “World.”  In the Hub, we have part two of our discussion regarding THE PIXAR THEORY by Jon Negroni (www.jonnegroni.com). We are working to fully understand the theory and to see if it “holds water” so to speak. Anyway, if you have not heard abo

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. It is time for part 1 of some mind blowing discussions related to Disney movies. We are mentally worn out after recording this part. Hahaha! This week, we once again address several topics which peaked our interest for discussion while waiting in the Queue. Phineas and Ferb and Star Wars...THE UNIVERSES COLLIDE!!! Along with this, Epcot’s Journey into Imagination pavillion is schedule to go down for a redo....possibly. AT&T customers will hopefully receive a “luxury” at the Disney parks on both coasts as AT&T becomes the official provider for the resorts. Rivers of Light...RIVERS OF LIGHTTTTT...at the Animal Kingdom...this is a parade on the river that is to take place at night. Is this enough to make Animal Kingdom an all day park for you? We shall see...we shall see. No more Spectromagic...it has been confirmed by Disney officials...Kevin is in mourning. In the Hub, we discuss THE PIXAR THEORY by Jon Negroni (www.jonnegro

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We are 21 shows old today and we are feeling very adult!!! We have a great show for you today as we explore another aspect of park life that has never seen the light of day. In this week’s Queue, we once again address several topics which peaked our interest for discussion while waiting in the queue. Disney performs a “Hat trick” at the Rose and Crown Pub in the United Kingdom pavilion in EPCOT Center. The last bastion of Merriweather Adam Pleasure’s vision has finally left the building. You can now recharge and discharge in Fantasyland at the Magic Kingdom. We talk about the lineup of narrators for the 2013 Candlelight Processional. With the coming of new things that one must do, we will soon see a new version of Must-Dos on resort TV starring the lovely, and always perky, Stacy Aswad. And lastly, for those wishing to become part of the magic, we discuss some upcoming auditions taking place soon. In the Hub, we discuss the missing

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. We have reached our 20s!!!! Woo hoo!!! In this week’s Queue, we go back to our regular format of the Queue and discuss Disney news from all over. Did you know that they are looking to make a live action version of the Jungle Book? Well, they are. Also, we chat about the “Rapid Fill” program which is the new tiered pricing program utilizing the RFID chips in the drink mugs. We also tease about our Halloween show for this year. In other news, DISNEY IS DEACTIVATING SOME IN-ROOM REFRIGERATORS!!!! And lastly, for those wishing to become part of the magic, we discuss some upcoming auditions taking place soon. In the Hub, we discuss our top five starts and stops to plus the parks. Basically, we have our top five things that we would like the company to “start” doing which we think would improve the parks. And then, we discuss our top five things that we would like the company to “stop” doing which we think would improve the parks. Do you

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. It is our first major holiday show!!! It’s is our 3.5 hour July 4th American Independence Day spectacular!!!!....not really. It is a long show, however...1 hour and 45 minutes long. Kevin had a lot of fun coming up with new jingles, background music, and sounds for this 4th of July special. What’s even better is that this is a regular format show...somewhat. LOL!!! In this week’s Queue, the boys do not necessarily chat about the latest news. However, while waiting in line, they do decide do a salute to patriotic things at all of the Disney parks.... but mostly Walt Disney World and Disneyland. A lot of help came from the Military Disney Tips blog on the www.militarydisneytips.com website. This website has a great series of blogs related to experiencing all things patriotic that happen in Walt Disney World. This is not just talking about the special events that happen on July 4th, but rather things of a patriotic nature that happen

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. Since we decided to do an All-About-The-Queue Show last week, we thought we would follow it up with an All-About-The-Hub Show this week. Yes, indeed! We are reviewing the ENTIRE Monsters University experience. Not only do we talk about the movie in and of itself, but we also talk about the stuff that happened before the movie even started. We will discuss the trailer for Disney Planes movie, which is set to open in August, the trailer for Despicable Me 2, and the Pixar short, The Blue Umbrella. One trailer that we forgot to mention on the show is the trailer for Turbo, which we will most likely discuss on next week’s show; there is nothing more amusing than a very fast snail. With the Monsters University movie, we discuss the link between Monsters Inc and this movie, the music and the art that was involved, and the overall message that we came away with. Let’s see if this is what you came away with too. We decided to use some diffe

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. This week’s show is a bit different than our normal shows as this one is our BIG, HUGE, 7 and 1/2 hour Queue show condensed into one hour!!!  Yes, you read this correctly, we have a myriad of topics that we wanted to discuss, but we just didn’t have one that would be broad enough for one Hub segment, so we decided to just chat while “waiting in line.” Kevin would first like to clarify the Walt Disney World cooler restrictions which was generally mentioned on last week’s show. He felt it is his responsibility to ensure that he did not mislead any listeners to that fact. Next, the boys discuss the new Disney Transportation paint job that they are putting on the busses. If you have not seen the pictures, go look at them. We would love to hear you opinions regarding this change in look. Then, Kevin gets a couple of things off of his chest: Princess Sofia’s inability to pronounce the name Cedric and his inability to do any the character

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast...count ‘em: TWO, TWO, TWO IN A ROW!!! Woo hoo!!! or Woot!!! as the kids like to say.  While waiting in the Queue, Danny and Kevin discuss a new event happening at Downtown Disney which is being called Carmasters Weekend. Also, this year’s D23 Expo attendees will be treated to a spectacular musical review in a production exclusive to this expo entitled Broadway and Beyond. This unique production will feature numerous stars from the Disney Theatrical universe. The Muppets Take Broadway...that’s all I have to say about that. Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival Registration opens soon. Are you ready for all the scrumptiousness headed your way? In the Hub, Kevin and Danny discuss ways to keep cool during this time of the travel year. Ladies and Gentleman, it’s hot!!! Since some of you will be touring the parks during this time of year, Kevin wanted to discuss the ways in which he keeps himself and, more importantly, his little ones cool espe

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast...a REBIRTH, if you will. We do explain our lengthy hiatus, but we assure you that we will not go away. We appreciate your understanding and your willingness to stay subscribed to us. On this week’s Queue, we discuss the raising of the ticket prices, an event which is quickly becoming an expectation akin to gas prices. And, for those looking to become part of the magic, we will give you a quick run down of any upcoming auditions.  In the Hub, we talk about Merida’s makeover for the Disney Princesses line of products. Is it good? Is it bad? Lets put it in perspective here. Also, we run off on a tangent and move into a bit reminiscent of our old Magic Our Way segment: we discuss Tangled, Brave, and Wreck It Ralph attraction ideas. As always, if you like the show, please rate us and leave a review in the iTunes Store. We do appreciate you taking the time to do so. Also, you can find us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter (@magicourway

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of the Magic Our Way podcast. On this week’s Queue, we discuss Disneyland and OSHA’s involvement in closing down several of the rides there. We also talk about the new Adventureland interactive game, which is reminiscent of the Sorcerer's of the Magic Kingdom game, that is coming to the Magic Kingdom park. And, once again, for those looking to become part of the magic, we will give you a quick run down of any upcoming auditions. Now, as you read this, it is time to get comfy in your chair and grab a drink, if you desire, and get ready to relax with us. Through this week’s Hub segment, we will transport you to places around the Walt Disney Resort which are relaxing to us. These places have been experienced and proven by the Magic Our Way staff. You might want a notepad for this so that you can remember these places for the next time you travel down to the World. As always, if you like the show, please rate us and leave a review in the iTunes Store. We do appreci

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of Magic Our Way. We are back with a somewhat NEW format of the show. Well, we really did not add anything new; we just consolidated one segment into the other two. It is thoroughly explained in the show. So, for this week in the Queue, we discuss the Annette Funicello’s life, the sequel to the Finding Nemo movie entitled Finding Dory, and I give you heads up on some auditions happening in the coming weeks in case you want to be part of the magic. In the Hub segment, we discuss how not to feel underwhelmed at Disneyland. This topic is specifically aimed at Walt Disney World people who have yet to make their pilgrimage to our “Mecca”, Disneyland, and are thinking about going or planning to go there in the near future. Yeah, it’s smaller, so what!!! That’s one of the reasons Mr. Disney came out to Florida was to have a bigger canvas. But, there is still so much magic available to you in that resort. As always, if you like the show, please rate us and leave a revi

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of Magic Our Way. We are back with a somewhat normal format of a show. We have our Queue segment in which we discuss the topic everyone in the Disney community is buzzing about, the Disney Springs makeover of Downtown Disney. Our Hub segment this week comes from the Magic Our Way Vault. We recorded this back in 2012 when the first news of Limited Time Magic was released. This was actually recorded before we started posting shows to our server and distributing them. So, this is an older recorded segment, but it turned out to be one of our better shows. The topic of Limited Time Magic rolls over into our Magic Our Way segment in which Danny and I brainstorm ideas of what we would like to see happen during the year of Limited Time Magic. Lastly, we introduce a new segment to our show, I Beg To Differ. It is not meant to be controversial or disrespectful to any other podcasters. We are fans first of both Disney and of the established podcast shows. But, every now a

Jambeaux, everyone!!! Welcome to another episode of Magic Our Way. This episode is somewhat unique and calls for a different kind of introduction. A lot of stuff is happening in mine and Danny’s lives this week which I explain in more detail in my intro. Anyway, we present to you ride audio form the NEW Test Track in Epcot center. So, hop into your car and safely reenact the events from the ride. HAHAHA! Please don’t do that and if you do, be smart about it. Besides, 65 mph feels different in your car than it does in the Test Track vehicles. We will be back next week for a regular show. As always, if you like the show, please rate us and leave a review in the iTunes Store. We do appreciate you taking the time to do so.

Jambeaux, everyone!!! We are introducing a new series of podcasts on our same feed called the Magic Our Way Field Reports. These shows will not be a regular segment due to the fact that these are podcasts we record straight on location at a Disney park or Disney event. You can call it our "on location" podcasts. We grab the portable studio and record anything from a mini trip report or attraction audio or interviews.  This series of field reports centers around Danny's trip he took with his family back in January 2013. This episode features Danny, Rob-O, and the little ones and back again is Aaron. If you enjoy these trip reports, let us know by sending your comments and suggestions to magicourway@gmail.com.
