842 · Disney Adults: Fandom, Identity, and the Magic of Never Growing Up

What does it really mean to be a Disney Adult?

I sit down with AJ Wolfe - founder of Disney Food Blog and author of the new book Disney Adults - to explore one of Disney fandom’s most passionate and misunderstood communities. Together, we unpack:

• Why Disney Adults face stereotypes, criticism, and double standards
• How Disney shapes identity, belonging, and even adulthood itself
• The joys and challenges inside the Disney Adult community
• Disney’s role in cultivating lifelong fans and what the future holds
• AJ’s personal journey, surprising research, and unforgettable stories

Whether you proudly call yourself a Disney Adult or just wonder why so many grown-ups are drawn to Disney, this episode will give you new insight into fandom, culture, and the magic of never growing up.
