  • Roger Rabbit Rights Return, Fake Jungle Fams, & come ride the Galactic Murder Bus
    Nov 16 2025

    “Life is chaos—but we’re doing all right.” From Halloween hangovers to Thanksgiving Turkey Explosions, Trevor & Dave dive into an oddly empty Disneyland visit, a Haunted Mansion Holiday that felt twice as fast, and a Star Tours ride-through that sparks the eternal question: why does a civilian shuttle have blasters? We swap Jungle Cruise safari stories (secret-shopper managers, Indy’s “King Kong doors”), mourn the death of free club soda taps, and so much more!

  • Queen Mary's Rusty Bottom, Is Prince Eric ok?, & Jerry the Chimps Big Adventure
    Nov 1 2025

    Trevor and David are back with another wild ride of an episode—starting with "Wait-Times” for your desk (yes, really), and ending with the legend of Jerry the Chimp from a pre-Disneyland “The Jungle” in Anaheim. Along the way, they unpack some wild plans for WestCOT Center, and the Queen Mary’s slow-motion sink into chaos.

    There’s Tiki-a-Go-Go hype, Haunted Mansion trivia that’ll melt your Doom Buggy-loving mind, Mermaid brainwashing, and Cajun Turkeys. Also: Trevor’s job news, mystery box giveaways, ancient strip-club history lessons, and why Disney+ documentaries feel like hostage videos.
