  • No thanks

    Just listened to one episode and they made a few references to super fans, but there was a hint of shade thrown to these fans. These fans are the ones who keep the lights on so they need to chill on that sentiment. Unfollowed.

  • Cannot WAIT for season 3!!!😃

    This is one of the most fun behind the scenes looks into working at Disney. As a huge Disney fan, one who so sadly did not take advantage of Disney College Program when she could have, this is everything to get to listen to and enjoy! And to see ALL the different possible paths to working at Disney from the amazing college program to beyond. Can’t wait for season 3!!
