The BEST Disney Parks Podcast
Ignore the negative review guys, the show is excellent! Derek and Doug are both charming, informative and kind. Keep up the good work. Ps, my wife and I are heading to Disneyland for the first time ever next weekend.. any first timer tips for a WDW regular?? -Dan from Michigan
Entertaining and informative. Great tips.
Very useful info on managing your trips to DWD. Love the banter. One of my favorites. I always smile when I see it in my queue.
One of my favorites!
This is one of my favorite Disney podcasts! Thanks for brightening my Friday’s!
Great Disney podcast !
This Disney podcast is great for the whole family ! Whenever we are going to be in the car for a while, my 10 year old will ask if Doug and Derek have any new episodes. These guys are hilarious and very knowledgeable. Thanks guys!
This podcast keeps getting better!
Updating my review! Always look forward to the fun and informative podcast by the Rope Drop team. Also-You guys also have the best special guests (Michelle! Chrissy!, Len!). Great pod for those traveling to Disney as adults or with kids.
Entertaining and informative
I am so thankful I found this podcast! I love listening to Derek and Doug. The podcast provides great information for all Disney goers (new and seasoned) and lots of entertainment for this TA who is missing Disney while at her day job. Only complaint is I need more episodes each week! LOL I had to go back and start from the first episode (Don’t worry guys, I know some of the info is outdated. RIP fast passes)
I’m so glad i found this amazing podcast!!!!!
I was so lucky to stumble upon Rope Drop Radio while planning for me and my son’s first WDW trip. Doug and Derek together along with Michelle have helped me plan the most out of our upcoming trip. I am so happy these Disney Dads are here to help us first timers get through the ins and outs of the parks, and i will never stop listening. THANKYOU ROPE DROP RADIO!!!!!!!!!!
Great Disney podcast from fellow Huskers
While planning for previous Disney trips, I listened to a lot of Disney podcasts. I have since purged many of them from my subscriptions, but not this one. Maybe it’s because I’m a fellow Husker, but I think distance from WDW is what makes them so great as they can still appreciate the good while being critical of the bad without being negative or snarky, something that is surprisingly hard to come by despite the sheer number of WDW podcasts.
Action packed
Solid content on a variety of subjects that keeps moving. Informative on park details that seem to change regularly. Appreciate the positivity, and enthusiasm, too many are nothing more than negative gripe sessions. Thanks for all the hard work.
New Favorite Disney Pod
I listen to a lot of Disney podcasts and this is my new favorite. Derek and Doug make me laugh throughout each episode with their sarcasm. My favorite shows are the trip reports…they’re as close as I’ll ever get to a Deluxe WDW hotel! Each episode provides some helpful info to take with you on your next Disney trip. Thanks for the great content.
Disney Dad’s Unite!
I love this podcast and the insight I get from two dudes that love Disney as much as I do. I work nights, so when I see a RDR episode drop I know it’s going to be a good night. I appreciate the trip reviews and the people brought onto the show from a wide variety is a huge bonus! Thanks for all you do and keep up the awesome and honest critiques of all things Disney.
A great treat!
I discovered this podcast after having a case of post-trip blues and Derek and Doug were just what I needed! The show is fun, informative, and makes me feel like a part of their conversations. Whether it's sitting at my desk or listening before I go to bed, this is a great podcast for anyone who loves the Disney parks. Keep up the awesome work and know that you guys bring so much happiness into my day!
Fun and informative
One of the best Disney travel podcasts out there. It’s great for first-timers and veterans alike. Derek and Doug are funny, welcoming and very relatable. Don’t miss out!
Good listen
Great topics and tips on the parks. Like the pod guest including Doug and Derek family members. Our kids loved the story about Michelle’s lost mobile phone, we lost a mobile phone on Tough to Be a Bug a few years ago!
Informative and Fun!
Found this podcast back in March and have been listening weekly ever since. Derek and Doug share many helpful planning tips and fun trip reviews. Listening is a great way to keep up to date with what is going on in the parks and on the cruise line. Highly recommend!
Just like MDE this is rated for ages 4 and up
Great podcast about all things DISNEY that the whole family can listen to in the car and shout in disagreement in some of their opinions (disco yeti Stans).
Love this podcast
Super fun podcast! Informative and entertaining! Derrick and Doug are great! Lots of trips and first hand info!!
Vicarious disney
When we are not at the parks I love listening to these guys. Lots of good info and fun stories. Living vicariously until our next trip …
you won’t regret it
when it comes to new disney podcasts that i come across, i can be very picky and it doesn’t take me long to decide if it’s a podcast i’ll listen to. within 5 minutes or so of listening to rope drop i was hooked. down to earth podcasters, info worth noting and the topics never disappoint, i always look forward to new episode dropping, keep up the good work.
GR8 podcast
Rope drop radio was so helpful for our first trip to WDW in 2019. We are getting ready to go again as a family of 6 and need all the help we can get!
Informative and entertaining!
I enjoy listening to Derek and Doug talk about all things Disney and look forward to a new podcast in my feed every week. They are knowledgeable about Disney parks and cruise line and entertaining at the same time. I love the episodes with Michelle too! If you are planning a Disney vacation, or just want to stay in the Disney state of mind, give this podcast a listen! - Sara from Virginia
Rock Solid Disney Parks Talk Show
Timely pertinent information you need to maximize your time in the parks, resorts, ships and all things Disney.
Funny, but also insightful
Just what I needed to prepare for my trip! I feel like I typically know a lot of tips and tricks, but I always learn something new! Love the honest reviews on food and resorts as well.
Helpful, funny & honest!
Doug and Derek give their honest opinions on the ins and outs of the Disney parks. I find myself laughing and taking notes as I listen and plan my next trip. Their reviews and tips are helpful to new and return Disney travelers. Been a listener since near the beginning and now a Patreon supporter as well. Keep up the great work guys!
