  • My little cup of happy every day

    I am constantly driving and on the go as a travel nurse and dreaming of my next Disney trip, so listening to Rope Drop Radio helps me escape to the Disney bubble if only for a little while every day. Lauren and Doug keep me laughing and also exquisitely informed on all the Disney need-to-know’s, but their conversations also have helped improve my Disney knowledge significantly as I’ve been exploring a new adventure as a travel agent. (Shout out to the nurses Lauren, woo!) You guys are a breath o... more

  • They get it

    Those of us who keep going back to the Disney Parks, who perk up when we hear someone mention Disney in a conversation, who will always get teary-eyed during fireworks, and wave, unashamedly, at characters in the parade, are the same people who long for childhood joys of innocence and nostalgia. We are the people who look for the magic. And this show gets it. Doug and Lauren are our people.

  • Great podcast

    My name is Nikki, I know my nickname on here is all weird, not sure how to fix and not worried about it. Anyway, wanted to drop a five star review after the one star, as I was appalled at how mean people are. I think Lauren has been a great addition to the show. I love the mix of humor and your love of Disney while also acknowledging flaws, keeping it real. My first trip was in 2024 and my family and I crushed it thanks to tips from this show. Can’t wait to go on a girls trip later this year. Ke... more

  • Part of my Disney family

    I listen to a lot of Disney content, but this is by far my go to. Every episode brings laughs and Disney magic. I am sure your kids will cringe if I ever see you in the parks because I will absolutely stop and say hi. Thanks for making us all feel like friends that share in a Disney obsession.
