In Episode 35, we continue the rst round of the “My Walt Disney World” tournament. The panel considers the next group of 16 candidates in the process of determining which is the most important/signicant/quintessential experience at Walt Disney World. Like an MVP award in sports, everyone has their own criteria, so the matchups make for a lively discussion.
Here are the Donald Group matchups, in case you want to follow along at home. You can nd the results of the blog readers’ vote here. We’ll be continuing with this tournament through the summer, releasing a new podcast each week. Next week, we’ll bring you Round 1 in the Goofy Division.

Host – Aaron Rittmaster
Panel – Eric Anderson; Paul Hajjar; Nathan Trent
In Episode 32, the DISDads panel completed our wishful thinking look at the future of the Walt Disney World theme parks. The panel suggested Disney’s Animal Kingdom attractions that have run their course and are ripe for removal. Next, we addressed attractions in need of major overhauls. We took a break so that Nathan Trent could take a long-overdue turn on the hot seat for 10 Questions. And nally, we discussed new attractions that would help bring Disney’s Animal Kingdom forward into the future.

Host – Aaron Rittmaster
Panel – Dave Compton; James Goodman Special Guest – David Platt
In Episode 31, the DISDads Podcast headed West, for our rst extensive discussion of “the mother ship” – Disneyland. Because it was our rst discussion of Disneyland, we took a birds-eye view of the Resort, and discussed it from the perspective of what a Walt Disney World fan should know about the park that started it all. Aaron and returning panelists Dave and James were joined by special guest David Platt. David was one of those guys who never really understood the Disney Parks obsession — until he visited this past April and saw Disneyland through the eyes of his 4-year-old daughter. David shared the experiences that made him an instant DISDad, from the minute his daughter ran up to hug Mickey during Toontown Morning Madness.
The rest of the podcast covered various comparisons and contrasts between Walt Disney World and Disneyland, including issues of food and restaurants; hotels and resorts; parks, attractions, entertainment and more. We had so much fun, I’m sure we’ll be revisiting Disneyland to take a more in-depth look at particular aspects of the Resort in the near future!
