  • Midwesterners

    Many people from the midwest go to Disney world. I think you have to get out of the basement more. St Louis is not a small city. Go out and see it! Who knew he was from Missouri. Got old. Good bye.

    How can Mike not know how to tell someone that wants to go for two weeks how they can use their ticket every other day on their trip. He said they wouldn’t get enough days on a 7 day ticket. Sure if they buy it separate. Buy a package and the ticket usage will span any 7 days of their resort stay. Ge... more

  • Amazing Podcast!

    I absolutely love this podcast and wish I could give more than a 5 star review. The hosts are educational but so fun (Pam’s laugh makes me smile every time). My favorite episodes are when the gang is all together. Mike, your patience and kindness with listeners during the call-in shows doesn’t go unnoticed. Thank you for continuing to be amazing!

  • I must listen to a podcast for anybody planning a Disney vacation

    Found this podcast back in 2016. There are a lot of people putting out information regarding Disney vacations. Having been to the World three times since then and a Disney cruise (and a born over-the-top planner) I can attest that a lot of the information given by other websites and podcast is not accurate. Be Our Guest podcast is accurate and entertaining. It’s a must listen for anyone wanting to vacation with Disney. It is the gold standard.

Q: Would you keep the dining plan if you're going to stay concierge at Coronado?
I'd probably take the dining plan off because I feel like you're going to have some good snacks, some good drinks.
Listener Questions - November 19, 2025 - Unattended Kids on DCL, New Influencer Store, Future of Coral Reef - BOGP 2799

As long as the 15-year-old is with them, you're going to be good, and they can enjoy facilities like the movie theater and pool deck.
More Listener Questions - November 3, 2025 - Current State of Boardwalk, Fun runDisney Signs, 4th of July at Yacht Club - BOGP 2790

Q: Would you take a five night fantasy or a seven night treasure?
A seven night cruise is always better, but it depends on your budget. If you can swing the seven night Eastern Caribbean on the Treasure, that would be amazing.
