Episode Details

A Day with Walt Disney!

Hey everyone, I’m Mike, she’s Sophie, that’s Brenda, and he’s Grogu, and we’re On the Road with Mickey! This is episode 197 and this week our feature topic is A Day with Walt Disney! This episode is a labor of love; tomorrow is Walt’s Birthday, and I thought it would be fun if we were able to plan a day at Walt Disney World with him! Here’s what we talked about this week!

• Cheddar from the Big Cheese
  • Mike: Over at Blizzard Beach Water Park, there are several things you can enjoy there during this time of the year, but the top billing in my book is the meet and greet with Santa! You can go see him in his tropical best outfits from park opening until 12:30PM each day until December 24th.
  • Brenda: Oh my gosh, people! We have been waiting on this for ever and ever, and it is finally here! The DEBUT of the Walt the Dreamer statue will be tomorrow, December 5th, at Epcot, in honor of his birthday!
  • Sophie: The Epcot International Festival of the Arts dates are released for 2024! From January 12 – February 19, you can enjoy all of the visual, culinary, and performing arts experiences while enjoying your time at Walt Disney World!

• Listener Feedback – Top 3 Christmas Movies
  • Chandler gave us his list of three: 
    • 1) Emmet Otters Jug Band Christmas. — Makes me cry. Every. Dang. Time!
    • 2) Muppets Christmas Carol — new in my rotation of must-watch options.
    • 3) Home Alone — I don’t watch it every year, but it’s good for this list.
  • Jennifer has two lists:
    • General Christmas movies: National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, Ernest Saves Christmas, Elf.
    • Those from the Disney+ List: Nightmare Before Christmas, Home Alone. We liked Decorating Disney the last time we watched it.
  • Aunt Robin had this to share:
    • A Christmas Carol by the Muppets!
    • White Christmas
    • Guardians of the Galaxy’s Christmas Special
