Trapped On Vacation

While trapped on furlough in the Vacation Home, we visit three brand new experiences at Epcot and Disney's Hollywood Studios! And for the first time ever, you don't have to plug your kid's ears while listening to Jonathan Coulton's Seasonal Classic, 'First of May' although you might want to plug your own, because I brought it up to date for the modern, Social Distancing era with my own wonderful yet awful singing

Hey everyone! Back for another episode Celebrating Black Spire, Batuu, Galaxy's Edge, and the Disney-MGM Studios Backlot Tour. Batuu is magical, and I'm in love. Testing a new method of recording. I'm currently on the fence as to whether I'll do it again. Let me know what you think. @trapped on twitter trappedonvacation on instagram, gmail, and reddit

Just when you think I've given up, it's the First of May, and I'm surprisingly back for a day of fun at the Magic Kingdom after a two (!?) year haitus! Itunes isn't working right, but you can find me everywhere else you can think of, you can even say "Hey Google, play the Trapped on Vacation podcast"... Have fun, because we are!

Thank you Bill Paxton, wherever you are. A 2006 Flashback... #RagingHelenHunt #WeGotCows

You guys havin' fun??? I'm back for a second show of 2016! Just under the wire for the Holidays!!! We start things out with a visit to Disney Springs to experience Starbright Holidays, then head to Epcot and find a duck with an Aussie, and wrap things up with the jingliest Jingle Cruise ever! All of these experiences are tied together with a relaxing standup paddle board trip down the Wekiva River.

This week we head back in time to visit the Disney-MGM Studios Backlot Tour (yes, that's what I called it...) on its last day of operation. And then head to the MK to ride along with one of my new favorite Skippers on the Jungle Cruise! As an experiment, I recorded portions during my commute. Let me know what you think... I'm not sure if I like it, but I'm producing something. Edited completely on Android.

It's a Christmas Miracle!!! Bringing you the first in at least two, possibly three very special Holiday episodes, we're back baby! Join us this week as we head to Sea World Orlando to Celebrate Shamu's Christmas Miracle! Lots of fun with myself, @Bleepin_wife, @littlesouvenir and 4mice+1 at Sea World's Family Christmas Party! Have fun and I hope you enjoy it!

Hi everyone! Last month I went to Pixar Weekends at Epcot where Jay Ward gave a talk about the Character Design of the cars in Cars 2. Since Cars 2 is opening tonight, what better time to share it with you! Sure it probably would've been better to have posted last month, but oh well... ;) Hope you enjoy it!

This episode marks the 5th Anniversary (more or less) of Trapped on Vacation, we're still the Longest Running Non-Commercial Disney Podcast on the Internet, and we'd like to thank you for listening and sticking with us for all of these years! Without our listeners like you, I'd just be a guy talking to my self with a wife staring at him wondering what the heck I was doing. So thanks for not making me look like an idiot. Well... like more of an idiot I guess... This week we head back in time with all new audio from the Opening Night Preview of the Main Street Electrical Parade at the Magic Kingdom. Yes, that's how long it's been... After that we head up north to Dearborn, MI and hear an original recording by Thomas Edison. Without Edison's invention of the phonograph, I doubt you'd be hearing my voice today! So thanks Mr. Edison! (Also thanks for the lightbulbs in MSEP!) Hope you enjoy it! Have fun!

We're back with another adventure! This week we visit Figment in Imagination for the first time with Little Souvenir, and then we head on down, grab a beer and see Davy Jones in concert at Epcot for the International Flower & Garden Festival! Good times, good friends, enjoy!

Hi everyone! Video show for you this time... join the Bleepin' Wife and I on an adventure in snowy Colorado with some of our favorite DPN friends! After that we head on over for a short ride at Disneyland to get you ready for DPN WestFest 2010 from April 29-May 2. Be sure to download the DPN Westfest App from iTunes to get your fun on!

With a little patience, I'm back! The typical mediocre shenanigans are back in this episode! Join us as we ring in the New Year once again in the same way we've been doing it since 2005! After that we head to Epcot with the gang at the DPN World Holiday and escape the heat in the American Adventure! Of course, the typical hijinks happen, you just have to listen closely at time! Have fun and happy 2010 from the TOV family!

TOV is back and with a new edition to the family (who is sleeping and letting me record the episode...) Come along with us as we join the Mouse Guest Weekly gang during the Mouse Guest Experience on one of our favorite attractions, and then hit Mickey's Philharmagic at the Magic Kingdom! Have fun and we'll see you soon!

With less than a week before the baby is born, it's either now or never for Episode 124!! It's another new year for Trapped on Vacation! Whoda thunk I'd still be at this in 2009??? Not me, that's for sure! Trapped on Vacation is the longest running completely non-commercial Disney podcast on the Internet, and I’m pretty darnn proud of that! I'm also darnn proud of the many friends that I've made over the years. (That's you by the way...) My many friends are the #1 reason that I keep on plugging away. While the episodes may be released a bit slower than at the start, I blame my friends for that... (that's you again!) Between episodes I'm constantly distracted by all of you on The DPN, Twitter, Plurk, and of course playing in real life at Walt Disney World. If I haven't met you yet, I'd love to meet you! Drop me a line if you're visiting Orlando and hopefully we can hang out for a bit! I've met most of my closest friends that way!!! Speaking of closest friends, I had the pleasure of spending this episode with the Non-Podcasting Co-Founder of the DPN - BurntToast, who recently transferred from Disneyland to the Walt Disney World Resort. We did they typical TOV anniversary things. Although we sent you somewhere else for 1/2 of it. :) Have fun, and thanks for 4 wonderful years! BTW It wouldn't be a TOV anniversary if I didn't give a shout out to my friends Darcy & Holly from the Darcy and Holly Show and The Screenless Switchers for inspiring me to podcast. I blame them 100% for my insanity. Thanks guys, you're the best!:)

Hi everyone! This week I take in two of the oldest attractions at any Disney Theme Park, sort of... They've both been updated over the years, one every 4 to 8 years, and one stopped being updated around 1994, but seemed to be updated semi-regularly before that. Ten bucks says you've already figured out which attractions, but if you haven't just listen. :) Oh and musical interludes and Earlioke all over the place too!

I'm back! This week we head to WestFest 2009 in Disneyland as we get stuck on Pirates, and then I take you to my favorite parade of the year at WDW...

Hi everyone! This week Bleepin and I take in 3 different shark related attractions at 3 totally unrelated Theme Parks! Come along and enjoy as we take you to Epcot, Universal Studios, and Sea World! Have fun!

This has to be the coolest audio I've ever recorded!

This episode was a ton of fun to record and put together! Over the last few weeks, we've had quite a few visitors here in paradise, and this episode features some fantastic moments with our friends and family from The DPN and Twitter! Join us as we take in three totally different attractions from three different Disney Parks... Test Track at Epcot with Auntie Lo and SilverJeeper, Kilimanjaro Safari with DisneyLeigh, and Splash Mountain with AnyaPhalange , PioneerHall, & the LilPioneer. I think it's safe to say that hijinks and shenanigans can be found all over the place... ;) Have fun! Note: AnyaPhalange doesn't count as a visitor... she's a TOV regular! :D

Happy New Year (a months too late!) This episode we step outside of the Disney Bubble and take in one of Central Florida's oldest attractions, Gatorland! We had a great time with a bunch the DPN Crew, including Jeff from Houston, Q, Chris from the Big D Podcast, 4mice+1 Heather, DisneyLeigh, DragonStorm (from twitter), and of course the Bleepin' Wife and myself. Basically this episode is just us tooling around and making fools of ourself feeding gators hot dogs, and watching Jeff & Chris feed some gators huge chunks of beef. Bleepin' essentially planned this entire Gatorland visit on getting Jeff to feed the gators up close like I did in ToV71, if you know Jeff, you'll know that this is the complete opposite of his idea of fun.... If you want to know how it turns out, to put it lightly, THAT WAS FANTASIC! (Beauty and the Beast eat your heart out...) PARENTAL WARNING - When it comes to this group, if you put more than one of us within 5 miles of each other, we begin to curse like sailors (with the exception of Heather.) I have not edited language on this one. You have been warned!
