They aren't part of the "Disney Haters" crowd (nowhere near it), and they aren't part of the "Disney Can Do No Wrong" crowd (nowhere near it)…I think they're right down the middle in terms of their analysis of Disney, which I think is probably the most accurate. This podcast tells it like it is without sugar-coating it. They do have a monthly live show to help answer questions for those who need answers in less than six months. The problem is that they are so popular that they can't keep caught up with the timeliness of the questions…quite often you'll hear a pause when reading a question about an upcoming trip and then a "Welcome back" after realizing the trip had alreay been taken. Every Wednesday is "Listener Questions" day, where they answer as many questions as they can in the show's time. I swear I'll never walk through Canada again the same way.
Episode 414 has to be one of the funniest episodes they've done, where they chronicle trying to eat or drink one item native to every country pavilion in a short time-span. They know each other well enough that there is a lot of good-natured ribbing with each other that, if you've followed the podcast long enough, makes the dialogue always interesting and, at times, outright hilarious. What makes this podcast work so well is the interaction among the hosts. Hosted by Matt Hochberg, owner of, Mike Newell, owner of mouseworldradio, Mike Scopa, a blogger at, Len Testa, co-author of The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World and mastermind behind, and, recently added, Annette Owens, travel agent with Mousefantravel, each episode of this podcast is at just about a perfect amount of time…15-20 minutes, which, coincidentally, is my commute to work. BEST OVERALL PODCAST!!! I started listening to this one around episode 110, and I've heard every one since then. Travelears is a good source for those planning trips to a Disney theme park as its lineup of hosts include a couple living near Disneyland, former cast members, one from Canada, one from Australia, a WDW aficionado, and a DVC member. This is one of the few "enhanced" podcasts, where pictures pop up during the discussion that are pertinent to what's being talked about.nice touch! hosted by the creators of, Rachel Pilgrim (with the occasional cameo by hubbie Ray), Mouse Travel Tips is a 15-20 minute show released about every week with tips, a showcase of a particular Disney attraction/area, and interesting tidbits about Disney.
