| 0:00.0 | Howdy, partners. For your safety, remain seated with your hands, arms, feet, and legs inside the podcast. |
| 0:08.1 | And be sure to watch your ears. If any of you folks wear and hats or glasses, best remove them. |
| 0:14.9 | Because Tag and Teresa have the wildest ride in the wilderness. |
| 0:19.9 | Well, hello, everybody. We are coming to you, well, for us, live, but recorded for you guys from Disneyland, up at the train station. We have a spectacular view. I'm looking at the Mickey Mouse Pumpkin. Of course, Sleeping Beauty Castle in the back. It's a beautiful day. It is very hot, though. Thank goodness it's overcast. Yes, it is overcast. So that's |
| 0:37.9 | helping. But we're just taking it easy today. We had a very jam-packed expo weekend. So we're just going to have a leisurely relaxing Disney Park Day. We're very excited. Yeah, we didn't do what we had planned. We brought a recording with us all weekend, but we didn't have any time because of how packed and busy everything was. |
| 0:54.6 | So we were doing it now in Disney, which will be fine. |
| 0:56.5 | And this time, we're not on the Rivers of America. We're on Main Street. So we have some different background noise and everything. So that should be great. And then also, just so you guys know, we might be in the middle of talking, but the Disneyland band is going to come down Main Street and perform. So that could be something for us. So speaking of the D23 Expo, we will have to fill you in on all the fun things. |
| 1:15.1 | I'm telling you, we definitely did not get to see you and do everything because it's just |
| 1:18.7 | impossible or you're like a superhero if you're able to do that. |
| 1:22.3 | But we're going to start at the beginning Friday. |
| 1:25.4 | Our first panel, we did have reservations for stage pass to be |
| 1:28.7 | able to go see the Disney 100 and Legends ceremony. A whole lineup of wonderful people. Some of the |
| 1:35.3 | acceptance speeches that really stood out to me, number one was Josh Gad. I don't know, he was just so |
| 1:41.3 | funny. We learned some fun things about him. Oh, yes. You're wrong. You're wrong. It is now Disney legend, Josh Gad. |
| 1:47.3 | Disney legend, Josh Gad. |
| 1:48.6 | Who let us know that he was not hired to be a jungle cruise skipper when he was 18. |
| 1:52.9 | Which, come on. He would have been such an, he would be an amazing Joel cruise skipper. |
| 1:56.6 | I mean, they should hire him now to be a jungle cruise skipper. |
| 1:59.3 | But I mean, so fun, so fun pack. They did live stream this. So some of you that weren't able to be in the room where it happened. Hopefully you were able to catch the live stream. Otherwise, we're hoping that they make this public because we haven't seen the replay or the recap for it. Hopefully soon it will be. But it was amazing. Another highlight to me was Idina Mansell singing When You Wish Upon a Star. That was like, I've never seen her perform. I've been so, I love a lot of her stuff, of course, Wicked, Rent, all those big ones. But so that was just really cool to see her sing live. And it was totally unscripted. It wasn't like a performance or |
| 2:34.9 | anything like that. I want to point out too, because I saw a lot of stuff online. And it's a big venue, right? 7,000 people fit in there. We were kind of off to the side. There was a lot of reports I saw later that evening or the next day online that, you know, Bob Cheapeck was booed when he came out. I will tell you from where we were sitting, I did not hear any booze. |
| 2:52.6 | So I think that people were just kind of like drumming that kind of... stay online that, you know, Bob Cheapek was booed when he came out. I will tell you from where we were sitting, I did not hear any booze. |
| 2:52.6 | So I think that people were just kind of like drumming that kind of up. We did have some weekly tears that said there was some booing, but I don't think it was as bad as online kind of chalked it up to be. Well, and again, it may have just depended on where you're sitting. But the section that we were in, which we were actually in the center section, everyone politely clapped. |
