Extraordinary Culture
Welcome to the Disney Culture Podcast, born out of the original Extraordinary Culture Podcast, a podcast about the culture that is music, movies, sports, food, and beer, the Extraordinary Culture. The Disney Culture, is a podcast about Disneyland and some other theme parks in Southern California. We are not a news podcast, we are simply a group of friends who share our experiences and give our thoughts on things happening in theme parks in the So Cal area. Find us here on Podomatic or listen and subscribe anywhere you can find podcasts and on YouTube. You can also follow my IG at dansdisneyadventures or the real fun is on TikTok at danszig77. Come along for the ride and see ya real soon!

Episode 25: Disney Culture Ep. 25: Runaway Podcast
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! Dan and Gina were able to get together and ride Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway this last one and this podcast almost was a runaway as Anthony did not hold back his thoughts on the version of Mickey the ride uses. We discuss the line and how this ride is similar and different than both Rise of the Resistance and Mario Kart: Bowser's Challenge that just opened officially at Universal. There is always food involved so Dan breaks down his trip to Cafe Orleans and both he and Gina sampled some of the Lunar New Year food. Hear about Gina's birthday at Carthay, Dan checking out Wondrous Journeys, the display at the Grand Californian and much more including a special appearance by Michael who will even be in the Disney parks soon. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!

Episode 24: Disney Culture Ep. 24: Super Mario (Nintendo) World
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! On this special (I guess) episode of the Disney Culture podcast, it's all Universal. Dan and Anthony were able to go to the passholder preview (was it really a preview though) of Universal's new Super Nintendo World and they give you all their thoughts on the process and the new land. Trust me there is a lot of them. This one needs to explicit warning label on it, especially when it comes to how Universal handles (or doesn't handle) their organization. Catch our unique perspective on this one and as always come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!

Episode 23: Disney Culture Ep. 23: Universal Culture
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! This time it's heavy on the Universal as we get ready to see the opening of Super (Mario) Nintendo World. Both Anthony and Dan will be checking out the passholder preview at Universal and they discuss their efforts to get that reservation, which was easy for Anthony, but time consuming for Dan. Of course we have some Disney talk as we gear up for the beginning of Disney 100, including already coming up on some of the merch. As usual we cover a lot of other random stuff including the planned Tiana's Palace to replace the French Market. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!

Episode 22: Disney Culture Ep. 22: Nintendo 33
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! Some of the biggest news comes from Universal who is about to open Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios. We discuss what this might mean and why they chose to open it the way they did. Dan had the time of his life being able to visit Club 33 for the first time, he talks a bit about that. Christmas time is still going on at the parks, but the magic really is gone with most magic keys blocked until the new year. Lots of other random stuff from the Muppets Christmas Carol to the Guardians Holiday Special and lots more in between. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!

Episode 21: Disney Culture Ep. 21: From Bob to Wakanda
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! We heard a little bit about some guys named Bob, so of course we talk about that. Unlike one Bob, however, Wakanda is forever and Dan talks about that. You know what we like about the parks? Eating, so Dan is trying a new challenge as far as eating in the parks. Dream Keys went on sale for a few hours and of course Disney+ has a lot of it, though it probably gave one Bob a job and the other Bob lost his because of it. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!

Episode 20: Disney Culture Ep. 20: Merry Spooky Season
To all who come to this happy podcast, welcome! It's Halloweentime (or the very end of it) so that means Christmas had already started at the parks. This episode we talk about Andor and She-Hulk, which we are still trying to figure out what happened at the end and where this will go from here, but since it's spooky season we also talk about Hocus Pocus, both 1 and 2 and the Sanderson Sisters as well as the brilliant Werewolf by Night. Christmas time has almost started at the parks and the decor and merchandise definitely shows it. Dan talks about being stuck on the bus from Toy Story for an hour along with a guy who took the holiday musk too seriously with his Halloween jacket. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!

Episode 19: Disney Culture Ep. 19: Fall Together
To all who come to this happy podcast welcome! It's been a while, but we are back. Things just got busy over the summer. There is so much to talk about we barely got to talk about any of it and just went with what was on our minds. We aren't a news site so we don't cover the latest and greatest we talk about our experiences. A little bit of Halloweentime, which started in August, a little D23, because we know you already heard all the announcements, plus just what we have been up to when it comes to the park. Always a fun listen and probably some bad jokes and oh yeah we make fun of so-called influencers. Give it a listen. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast. See ya real soon!

To all who come to this happy podcast welcome!

Just some good storytelling here about the Electrical Parade, Oga's, and of course slushies! Give it a listen. Come along for the ride as we discuss all this and more on the Disney Culture podcast.
