  • TDR podcast offers very useful and fun content, but co-host makes it difficult to recommend.

    I’m a long-time fan of the TDR YouTube channel and started listening to the Podcast every once in a while back in 2023.

    I love Chris dearly and his portions of the podcast are just as charming as ever with helpful information and a good sense of humor all around.

    Patricia unfortunately has made me start turning episodes off due to her constant interruptions without substance and negative attitude.

    I’m sure she is a perfectly lovely person irl, but her appearances in this podcast are grating. ... more

  • Not my fave

I get that she has opinions but it’s like saying the Godfather movie is terrible even though you’ve never spent time actually watching the movie. She has opinions and I guess I will look for people who actually form ones from experiences not just... more

  • Best Tokyo Disney Content!

    I love listening to this podcast as I plan for my Tokyo Disneyland trip. I’ve been dreaming about going to Tokyo Disneyland and Sea ever since I was a little girl, and this podcast makes me feel like I can make my dreams come true! Chris and Trish’s commentary about TDR feels authentic and they keep it real when it seems like Disney is slipping up or doing something amazing. Since they are locals I know their advice is current and they keep things fresh. I feel more confident when planning my tr... more
