Ep 264. The One with Fall Fun and Girl Talk

In the 264th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave are once again split up, as Dave is sailing the high seas on a cruise ship, so Jenn is joined this time by fan fave #KylaKylaKyla and Quasi Producer Heather, aka The Moana Mom.

The girl chat goes off the rails early, as they chat up everything from Jenn's trip on the Disney Treasure to Beak & Barrel merch to Kyla getting GEO82. Plus chats on the Food & Wine Festival and some of the announcements made at the latest D23! 

Ep 262. The One with the EPCOT CEOs

LISTEN TO THE SHOW HERE!!

In the 262nd episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave are back after a few weeks away, with Jenn traveling and Dave getting a kid back to school!

After a little catch up conversation, they chat up the news, including Disneyland changes... announcements on Big Thunder Mountain and Zootopia.. Spaceship Earth's refurbishment... a storyline for the Muppet's Coaster... and the Food & Wine Festival starts NOW!

Then, they dream a little, to ask "What would we do if we were Epcot CEO?" - nothing massive, no moving attractions from park to park or creating whole new lands... but what would we bring back? What changes would we make? And what is Jenn's #1 above everything?

Ep 257. The One with Man Overboard, Test Track, and Epcot Concerts

LISTEN TO THE EPISODE HERE

In the 257th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave are back together with several big stories from the world of Disney and travel.

First, they discuss the big story of the little girl falling off the Disney Dream, the dad who saved her, what may have happened, and some tips, cautions, and why Disney Cruise Lines are still SUPER safe

Then, a chat about the legendary Carnival Poop Cruise - and the documentary out now all about it.

Other discussions include the information about Test Track's reopening in a few weeks... more opening and closings scheduled at Walt Disney World, and Epcot's Eat to the Beat concert lineup for 2025.

Ep 220. The One with the New MultiPass

LISTEN TO THE SHOW HERE!! 

In the 220th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave are joined by fan fave Kyla, as both she and Jenn came back from recent trips and are ready to discuss using the new FastPass Genie+ MultiPass and Single Pass Lightning Lane system... after a brief chatter about owning Pocahontas, reliving Disney, and Saratoga Springs. And a quick review on the new Country Bears... plus, will Tiana's ever open longer than an hour?

In our travel news, Encanto meet-ups in Disneyland... the Wizarding Scoop on the Epic Universe Ministry of Magic (and a few terms explained for the Potter novices)... another Halloween and Christmas party ticket update... Sports murals... reservations at Jollywood... much love for the Finesse Party Band at Epcot's Food & Wine Festival... and losing McQueen's Racing Academy but gaining the Villains show.

Jenn also gives her quick review on her Celebrity cruise voyage.

Then, a great conversation about the new Multi Pass and Single Pass system... getting attractions 7 days ahead of time... strategies on using them in the parks... why you should purchase Guardians... the rides in the park tiers... and Jenn and Kyla give their pros and cons to the new system.  

(this episode was recorded about an hour before they announced Tron's Virtual Queue was going away!)

Ep 202. The One with the Travel Bucket List

LISTEN TO THE SHOW HERE!!!

In the 202nd episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn and Dave are celebrating National Bucket List Day! 

This leads to a discussion about the things, mostly travel related, that are on both their bucket lists... places they'd like to visit, cruises they'd like to take, ground they'd like to set their feet upon, and theme parks to fly to.

First though, Jenn is getting ready for a huge travel summer, while Dave is putting a Cap on his wall. Then, a little news -- Epcot's Food & Wine Festival dates have been released, and we speculate on why the festival time period is shorter... and if it has to do anything with the upcoming CommuniCore opening.. and of course, speculation of what we might see in there.

Then, Disney filed permits for work on the Imagination Pavilion, so we also make some wildly off base yet fully educated guesses as to what Disney might be doing next in this area. And, is Figment so popular that he still needs his own attraction? 

Hollywood Studios has a 35th anniversary coming up... Smellephant is brand new in Magic Kingdom... new experiences require pre-payment (and why Mace Windu's lightsaber is purple)... and Jenn's joy that her favorite restaurant just got one huge award. 

Then onto the Bucket List chat, which really just devolves into a travel discussion about places we want to go, but it's always entertaining. 

Ep 172. The One with the Foodie

LISTEN TO THE SHOW!

In the 172nd episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn and Dave are in the midst of a wild few weeks of both travel and podcast recordings - and joining the show and the chaos is Friend of the Show and host of the Food For Thoughtcast, Melissa Reagan.

Melissa just returned from a solo trip, her first time back in several years, and she gives the lowdown on staying at Pop Century, some of her favorite attractions (and battling a little motion sickness), and her favorite eats -- including her real life Chef perspective on Epcot's Food & Wine Festival, with her faves (and not so faves). Plus, trying every dish at Roundup Rodeo's BBQ in Hollywood Studios, and her fave meal of the week - Tiffin's! 

Ep 112. The One with Toy Story Land

LISTEN TO THE SHOW HERE!!

In the 112th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave say "Happy 4th Birthday to Andy's Backyard" aka, "Toy Story Land" in Hollywood Studios!  Opened on June 30, 2018, it's a worthy addition to the classics in Hollywood! 

First, Jenn is getting ready for her sailing on the Wish, while Dave is eyeing a ghostly new Lego set, and then they chat about the latest news -- Splash Mountain's refurb gets a new name... Disney cancels, then uncancels a train... the Eat to the Beat lineup, and lamenting the lack of star power for Epcot's 40th... trying to figure out who Stokely is... why Jenn hates Hanson... and the Boutique returns! 

Plus, remembering The Backlot Tour, before doing a talk-through walkthrough of Toy Story Land, including taking a look at theming, Toy Story Mania, forgetting the game order, the old Pixar Place, Alien Swirling Saucers, Slinky Dog, and even a look at Toy Story Land in other parks around the world. 

And at the end, some breaking news that came in while recording -- Pooh, Tigger, Lilo, Stitch and more return to dining as three character meals are returning! 

Some big thanks to those who's contributions to the show have lasted 112 episodes, including Brady Novotny (theme music)... Johnathan Iverson, the Last Ringmaster (the opening voice)... Tim Dumais (news jingle and the old podcast themes)... Katrina Stone (the ending voice)... and Scott Cuzzo (the podcast logo)

LISTEN TO THE EPISODE HERE!!

In the 106th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave make it short and sweet this week... as it's JENN'S BIRTHDAY (or it was, anyway, a few days ago...)

And literally, an hour or so after we turned the mics off, she boarded a plane headed to The Most Magical Place on Earth (see Mr. Chapek, WE know what its called) -- so before she goes, she and d$ have a random, fun chat... 

A quick review of Chip n Dale's Rescue Rangers... a preview of Jenn's trip... choosing Narcoosees or Citricos... why monorail resorts rule... why The Contemporary is even a little better... a rundown of Epcot's Eat to the Beat lineup at this fall's Food & Wine Festival... plus Campbell, aka Pocket Change, makes an appearance briefly as family life creeps in.

A quick show but still a fun 30 minutes of chuckles and Magic! 

Ep 061. The One with Christmas in July
