My Favorite Disney Podcast!
This podcast is informative and fun to listen to. Derek and Doug are extremely knowledgeable about the parks and always come up with fun ideas for episodes. They do many trip reviews which are not only entertaining, but keep the listeners up to date on the newest happenings at the parks. If you are planning a first trip to Disney or you are a return visitor, I recommend you give this podcast a listen. You will not only learn something new, you will be entertained as well!

Best Podcast for WDW/DCL planning!
Started listening to this podcast years ago as I was planning my first Disney cruise. 4 cruises and 2 WDW trips later Derek and Doug are still my favorite Disney podcast to listen to. They’re super informative and entertaining. I love the banter between them. I even find myself laughing out loud by myself on my car drive. I feel so prepared and ahead of the game about genie+ for my next trip! Thanks for all the great Disney World tips Derek, Doug, Michelle, Madison and guests!

Hilarious and Accurate!!!
Guys! You are so fun and entertaining to listen too! And I always learn at least 1 thing every time I listen. I’m training for my 1st RunDisney event for next year and your podcast is in my top 5 for my runs. Last week I had to stop and laugh out loud about the Dad jokes that Derek shared about filling up the car at the Speedway!! I love that he did a Dad/Daughter trip and let her choose the day! Well, I’d love it and hate it at the same time with my kids TBH. It’s about the memories right! Guys, keep up the hilarious banter, great honest tips and keeping it real! Ps- please explain more about Chewbacca mode for Smuggler’s Run!!! Inquiring minds need to know for future trips!

Been listening for awhile now, but finally writing a review. Doug and Derek do a great job of covering a variety of Disney topics without the podcast becoming repetitive or stale. The trip reports are great to fill that void between trips! My favorite Disney podcast out there, definitely give it a listen.

So informed and entertained
When we booked Disney we realized everything changed since last time we went (2020- pre COVID). I started listening to podcasts and following blogs. RDR is very informative and entertaining. I’ve only been listening for a few weeks and I already feel like I learned so much!

Love this Disney podcast!
I started listening to get excited for my upcoming WDW trip (We’ll be there in September so hopefully we’ll run into you!) and this was the perfect pick! I love Derek & Doug’s insight and banter and I look forward to the weekly episodes. I’ve already went back and listened to so many. I highly recommend to all Disney parks fans! Thanks for what you do!!

You guys rock!
Just got back from our week long first time Disney trip and it was amazing! This show (and Michelle) helped us to be able to master the parks and Genie+! Our park experience would have been a lot more different and stressful if it wasn’t for this podcast. Thanks and keep up the good work!

Thank you!
I love this podcast! I am in the process of planning a 2023 trip with a group of 12 and so many of the episodes have been so helpful to get our plans rolling. Would love to see an episode on how to approach Disney (lodging, genie, dining, etc) for a large group. Thanks!

My go-to Disney pod
Derek and Doug are the best! Honest feedback, amazing tips, and they’re super candid which makes you feel like they’re you’re good friends from Nebraska! I have particularly enjoyed their Genie+ feedback as my trip approaches - I have listened to episode 313 more times than I remember!! Thanks for continuing to bring us awesome info and advice, Derek and Doug!!

Helpful and fun!!
Love this show. It’s so informative but also a lot of fun to listen to Derek and Doug. They are Disney enthusiasts who are honest about all the great things about Disney, but they acknowledge the bad and the ugly too. The name says it all… if you are “rope drop” people you know you have to plan ahead to have a great Disney experience. So this is your podcast. If you aren’t “rope drop” people, you NEED to listen. Thanks for a great show for all of us Disney prep junkies.

The podcast I look forward to every week.
I discovered this podcast while planning for a trip and I’ve been hooked ever since. Derek and Doug provide some great advice and insight on all things Disney. The podcast just feels like a couple of dads talking Disney. As a fellow dad who loves Disney, I can appreciate that!

A must listen for any WDW traveler
I really appreciated this show for all the advice and trip reports! These guys are so incredibly relatable dads and have great banter. My trip was made so much easier because of these guys and the tips they shared… unfortunately I couldn’t get the family up and moving for rope drop but the reverse rope drop episodes were clutch! I’ll keep on listening as we save up for our next trip!

Great for someone who is new to Disney
We are headed to Disney World for our first time. This has been so helpful in planning and getting a good idea of how to navigate the parks. I would love to hear an episode of Mickey’s Halloween Party. Thanks for all the good info!!

Rope Drop Review
Hey guys love the podcast I listen every car ride home from college. Growing up as a Disney kid it’s fun to flashback and listen to this great podcast! Keep up the good work.

Thank you so much!
I love your podcast! I became sort of panicked when I saw how quickly my Disney trip was approaching and I had not planned that much (the last time we went was 2015). I’m in the car an hour a day so I thought I’d try a podcast to make sure I’m caught up on all the Disney dish. I tried a lot of other podcasts and you guys were by far my favorite. You give good general information and insider tips in a fun and entertaining way. You guys definitely got me ready for my trip and I can’t wait to experience Disney World again.

Thank you for this podcast!
We took our kids (ages 3 and 6) on their first Disney trip and I can say definitively that this podcast made a HUGE difference in our trip planning! I’ve heard a lot of complaints about recent Disney changes (genie+, lightning lanes, etc.) but thanks to Rope Drop Radio I was totally prepared, knew exactly what to do, and we had the best trip ever! We already booked a trip back and you can bet I’ll continue listening! Thank you so much!
