WDW Reflections Podcast

Welcome to the WDW Reflections Podcast. Your hosts, Dewey, Ron, and Tony, are just 3 guys with a shared appreciation of all things Walt Disney World, past present and future. Our friendship started out of lively discussions on a Disney Message Board back in the day, and we are thrilled to share our unique Disney Park memories, opinions and experiences with you. The show features personal recollections of early visits, reflections on what has been and what the park has become, and a fun and honest discussion of the things we love and don’t love about the Most Magical Place on Earth.

Howdy, folks!
This week, we have the honor of welcoming back our special guest, author Trisha Daab, who reflects on what it is like to write about Disney Parks; how she started her journey, and the wonderful places it has led to.
Trisha is an avid Disney fan, author, mom/not-so-evil stepmom and food lover. She is the author of multiple books about Disney World: Tasting the Magic from A-Z: The Best Food and Beverages at Walt Disney World; The Not-So-Evil Stepmother in the Most Magical Place on Earth: Planning Your Walt Disney World Family Vacation; and a five volume series of guides called The Story Comes Alive that help people experience their favorite Disney movies and characters, often in unexpected ways, at Walt Disney World.
If you would like to order a signed copy of her book, please reach out to her on Instagram @notsoevil_disneystepmom and on Facebook @authorTrishaDaab.
Trisha also joins us for "What's Happening Now", which takes a look at the return of Cirque de Soleil to Disney Parks, and then sticks around for "What's Your Favorite?", which this week centers around the East and West sides of EPCOT Center.
Video excerpts from this conversation can be found on our YouTube page (@wdwreflectionspodcast).
