Magic on Main Street - A Disneyland podcast

We’re back! ...and things are a little different this time. Our new season kicks off with a brand new vibe, a looser format, and honestly… a lot more laughs. This week, we’re giving you an inside look at the chaos that happens while recording the show. It’s more raw, more real, and way funnier than you’re used to. We go deep into Halloween Time at Disneyland Resort, break down our updated Oogie Boogie Bash Guide, and debut something we’re super proud of: the all-new Festival Foodie app. Oh, and did we mention? We laughed. A lot. If you’ve never listened before, or if you tried it once and thought it wasn’t for you, this is the episode to jump back in. Trust us—you’ll want to be along for this ride.

This week on Magic on Main Street, we’re diving into a mix of magic and meaning. We start by addressing what’s happening in the world right now — especially here in California — and why staying silent just isn’t an option. Then we’re uncovering the hidden legacy behind something you see every day in the parks: cast member name tags. These little badges carry more history than you might think. We’ve also got big updates on Downtown Disney changes, new lands and attractions, and a full breakdown of the Halloween news that has us planning costumes already. And finally, we’re sharing the story behind one special piece of Disneyland merchandise — a tribute to Walt Disney himself — that’s so much more than just a collectible. Tune in for the heart, the history, and of course… the churro-level chaos. Links: 📼 Check out this episode on YouTube! 👕 Hoodies and Tees!
