4 The Mouseketeers

What’s Up Mouseketeers? WE’RE BAAAACCK. We took a break because let’s face it, life can be a little crazy, but this episode fills you in on what your favorite train wreck podcast duo has been up to. Settle in for a little chit chat as we cover: * Two Weeks at Disney – Susanne shares her resort hopping secrets and you’ll be shocked to hear her take on a stay at a luxury Disney Resort, plus the unexpected souvenir her family took home. * A quick review of the new annual pass options; you know now that we’ve had time to digest.* The major FOMO over Oogie Boogie Bash in Disneyland and how it compares to WDW’s Boo Bash.* Interesting changes coming ahead of WDW’s 50th Anniversary. NOW ON WITH THE SHOW!

WARNING: Before we get to this week’s episode, we want to dedicate this show to one of our loyal listeners who recently passed away. Because she loved our show for how wild and crazy it was, we are not censoring any of the profanity… this episode of Disney Ridiculousness is dedicated to Lynda Corcoran.Additionally, since recording Ohana has brought back the noodles that made everyone lose their noodle. We’ve got a great show this week, Susanne is back and she has A LOT to say. We titled it Disney Ridiculousness because this week Disney and the Disney-sphere has been on ANOTHER LEVEL. Tune in to hear all about: * The TERRIFYING Boo Bash Roll Out* Trashy Disney Influencer Privilege * The Secret Disney Group Drama that made National headlines* Newsweek covered some of the shenanigans in great detail* The Great Dining Meltdown of 2021 The Episode Run-Down If you don’t have time to listen to the whole show … we have a call to action. Tell us in the comments what Disney could be doing better?? We touched upon some of the epic mistakes made this past week, but we want to hear from YOU! Drop your recommendations, or visit our social media pages to sound off!

Welcome back to another episode of 4 The Mouseketeers. Susanne is on a small hiatus, so we have some fantastic guest hosts coming to the show. We are kicking off our guest run with David from Florida Park Explorers. On this episode we get deep into the Disney Conspiracy, David and I talk about: * Boo Bash – Dates and Prices … why so high?* What the future of Disney looks like… including some transportation snafu’s* Disney’s 50th anniversary…. and why we’re not feeling so golden.* The rumored lightning pass… is this really the next step for Disney? We also talk about Harmonious and how it’s less harmony and more ominous. This conspiracy theory is WILD and you won’t want to miss what we think is actually going to happen when they flip the switch. Who are the Florida Park Explorers? David, Jen, and their daughter Isabella (Bella) are Orlando residents with Cinderella’s Castle as their backyard neighbor. It takes an impressive 12 minutes to get from their doorstep to Cindy’s palatial pad. During the COVID-19 lockdown, Dave realized there was a need for people who weren’t able to travel to still experience the magic of Florida theme parks. So he geared up, grabbed the family, and started making YouTube videos, which eventually led to live streaming his adventures in the parks. The Florida Park Explorers work diligently to bring fresh park content, as well as breaking news and even tips and tricks on how to score the best deals at the Disney outlets.

February came and went and now we start March with a little madness. Susanne is far better at keeping up with the news than our podcast has been, so please follow @dismomknows on social media for daily Disney updates. We want to warn our listeners that by topic 3 of the podcast, we stop bleeping the expletive’s so WARNING – the podcast becomes NSFW around the 15-minute mark. On this episode, we are spilling Dis-TEA about: * Magic Bands … spoilers, they aren’t going away.* Flower and Garden Festival Blooming over at EPCOT (see what we did there?)* Wearing your mask at Disney and not being a D-bag to Cast Members* Touch of Disney comes to Disneyland We derail the podcast discussing vigilante justice… which leads us to…. Very Important Information We love our listeners so much, and we want to keep you safe. Your Mousekahosts both have backgrounds in law enforcement, and we believe in being transparent with you, our very dear listeners. When we mention that some of your favorite Disney influencers and bloggers are less than savory characters, we are telling you because we have done our homework. We aren’t taking these warnings that we share with you lightly. We have spoken to the victims, we have compiled evidence, and we are presenting these things to you in hopes that you make an informed decision about supporting these people. We respect everyone’s right to like, subscribe, and support content creators, but we urge you all to do your homework. NOW… ON WITH THE SHOW!

We survived the clock chiming midnight and welcomed 2021 with our first podcast of the year! Did you miss us? We’ve got a fantastic show for you to kick off the year. In this episode we talk about: * What’s Up Disney+.* A brand new YouTube show hosted by Jenny Lorenzo and Andre Meadows.* The Ratatousical – a Tik Tok sensation turned musical.* Plus a bonus review of the new ride coming to EPCOT in 2021.* The return of the park hopper.* We give you the real deal review on how that’s working at Disney Parks.* Temporary and Permanent Closures on Property.* The mysterious temporary closure of Gideon’s Bakehouse and we say goodbye to Sorceror’s of Magic Kingdom. It also wouldn’t be our podcast style if we didn’t take a few detours from our topics to talk about Disney experiences, so you’ll want to listen in for the sheer ridiculousness of why and I quote “food is just a condiment vessel” for Scrooge McChuck and his side of the family at Disney. NOW ON WITH THE SHOW!

It’s been 3 long months since our last episode, but it feels like 84 years. We are blaming our extended absence on having partied too hard celebrating our 1 year anniversary, and we blacked out only to fall down a rabbit hole into an alternate universe where some people wore masks and there was lots of yelling on TV from two old guys…. wait…. that wasn’t an episode of the Muppets? It’s real-life?!?! In any case, we are BACK. At least for the month of November, where we are giving you an episode of your favorite train wreck Disney podcast to hold you over until the holidays. On this episode of 4 The Mouseketeers we pack plenty of content into the show for your auditory enjoyment. Join us as we talk about: * Devastating Disney Layoffs* Help us help cast members – please drop some small shops owned by former CM’s in the comments of our blog, so we can promote them and provide some financial support for the holidays.* Also check out the information below on how you can help support other charities that keep CM’s fed during this difficult time.* Problem Privileged Guests* Park Capacity* How to kill time at your Disney dining reservation* Face Mask Etiquette* Annual Passholder Perks* My strange Loungefly addiction Helping out CM’s CAST MEMBER PANTRY: This initiative was created to help cast members keep food on their table while they have been furloughed or recently laid off from Disney.
