Hello all! I've got a couple of flights coming up over the next week, and I thought instead of just listening to music, I would try some podcasts out. These are completely new to me, so let me know what the best Walt Disney World podcasts are out there! Any general Disney and theme park related podcasts would be just as appreciated, too, especially about Disneyland and the others.

I only listen to one WDW podcast: WDWToday. Download the past episodes and any other ones that tickle your fancy.

Also, look into getting some other ones too! Here's some I recommend followed by what they are...

-This Week in Tech: weekly tech pundit/information show. One of the best produced and hosted podcasts. Peroid.
-gdgt weekly: gadget podcast, reviews and news.
-A.V. talk: movie reviews
-hatecast: popculture and cynicism. very very funny!
-RebelFM: video game podcast. what you've been playing, reviews, news, and the best listener letters section of any podcast (this week they tackle early male balding, for example)

Just go on iTunes and search around and see what's good. Hope that helps! :wave:

Thanks! Yeah, I figured I'd also look for others like TV/movie news podcasts.

WDW Today is great. It's not too long, unlike the 3 hours podcasts over at WDW radio. Inside the magic, video addition is good too but it is not a weekly thing.

When the big podcast push began a few years ago, I really jumped on board in a big way. I was in college and had more free time than I currently do. Now I have had to scale back on my podcast listening and had to drop some shows from my rotation.

Right now, I never miss:

Inside The Magic
WDW Radio
The Dis Unplugged
Magical Definition (w/ Jim Hill)

Mice Cast
The Meandering Mouse
Imagineering My Way
Disneyland News Today

Shows That I Listen To Based on the Content of the Specific Show:

A Window To The Magic
WDW Today
Mouse Guest Weekly
Mouse Times
Trapped On Vacation
NetcotPodcast
The Travelears

My favorite non Disney shows are:
The Totally Rad Show (Movies, Video Games, etc.)
The /Filmcast (Movies)
4 Guys, 1UP (Video Games)
Giant Bombcast (Video Games)
IGN Podcast Beyond (Video Games)
ESPN NBA Today
ESPNU College Football

I'm a huge TRS guy, though it's mostly a video podcast so I didn't recommend it as much. I've heard good things about Giant Bomb too, and I stopped bothering with the 1up podcasts after the EGM breakup and I HATE Garnet (though he's gone now, yay).

Another good one that's new is NSFW by the TWiT people. It's hosted by Brian Brushwood of Scam School (another great video podcast about bar tricks, scams, and magic) and seems promising.

I haven't found a better one than WDW Today. It's the perfect blend of humor and informative content. I love that they're only 20-30 minutes long, compared to the 3 hour marathons Mongello puts together. Mongello's podcasts are also sleep inducing, so if you want to take a nap on the plane, pop in one of his. Also, he might as well work for Disney- you'll never EVER hear him criticize anything they do. The guys at WDW Today make their love of Disney apparent, but they will call them out when they need to be called out.

To me, that is the ONLY thing that is kind of frustrating about WDW Radio. He treats it like an official podcast and rarely if ever has any criticism.
