  1. I have been watching the Thursday show for about 6 months and must say it is genius. I live local to WDW and have still to attend an event and meet the team, but keep up the great work!

  2. Just wanted to say Thank You!
    You guys do an EXCELLENT job bringing WDW home to a guy in Ohio everyday!
    As much as I would love to live and work at Disney, sadly I cannot. But You guys help keep me and my family close to the Parks.

    We Look Forward to news from your site all the time!
