Reminded that the speakers in my car shake when something I’m listening to is too loud 😂

This is legit my favorite niche podcast on all of youtube.

Dan just ups the energy of anything he’s in. His enthusiasm over whatever he’s taking about is so fun to watch.

“It’s kickass without the kick” I’m stealing that line

Never heard of Disney Dan until today, but I was immediately a fan of the vibes

Disney Dan is so fucking entertaining thanks for introducing me to this amazing person

DISNEY SING ALONG really influenced my love for Disneyland growing up! That entire episode including the haunted mansion portion really properly embodied the energy for the time

Fantasmic?! Disney Dan?! It’s gonna be a good Tuesday… 🤩

DISNEYLAND FUN MENTIONED... WATCHED THAT PROBABLY MORE THAN ANY VIDEO DURING MY CHILDHOOD 😂

Fantasmic and Disney Dan are a match made in heaven for this episode. Fantasmic is one of my favorite theme park things ever. I cry the second I hear the intro music. By the time Mickey says, “some imagination, huh?”, I’m a mess. It’s just nostalgic vibes all the way for me and always reminds me of family trips where we made it a tradition to watch the show at least once each trip.

The way seeing those trees from the Singalong Songs Disneyland Fun vhs INSTANTANEOUSLY took me back to being a child and watching that tape until it broke. Like wait… is this why I’m like this?? 😂

My sister and I loved that movie!!!

Dan is insane in the best way, the man is just enthusiasm in human form

I got a 14 hour drive tomorrow you best believe im listening to this and then rewatching the one with Soarin and Epic Universe

I LOVE that you did Fantasmic in the kiddie pool. I think I did the Ariel leap out of the water with the ocean spray behind her about a million times on the side of the pool.

I literally gasped this morning when I remembered it was Tuesday and a new episode of FYA was out 😁

Disney Dan's laugh will never fail to put a smile on my face!

the podcasts are back! life has color and sunshine and joy in it again!

Definitely my favorite guest so far! I love Dan's enthusiasm. I don't go to theme parks often and I'm not very into rides, but I love this podcast for the passion Byron and Ryan have for the topic.

This gives off the energy of someone introducing their college best friend to their high school best friend and not knowing how to react to how different the two of you are now while your college best friend just sits there like 😐 I love it

No knock on Dan 😂 but I definitely had to watch this one in separate segments. Energy level was so high it reminded me of my kids and usually I listen to the podcast to chill 😅 I'll be better prepped next time! Love all the guests and would love to see some repeated guests OR see you guys go to the parks together!

It's finals week and this TWO HOUR episode is saving my sanity

This... might be my favorite ep of FYA so far🤣 Disney Dan was f**kin something else😂 More Disney Dan with you guys pleaze, lol! And yes... I'm subbed to him!

Does anyone else smell a season regular guest?

Look forward to these podcasts every week, 2 hours was a treat! Thank guys!

I remember the only time I ever had to work guest control for Fantasmic the dragon was down, two boys didn’t work, and a firework landed on a guest’s shirt. I am a little bummed I wasn’t there the night of the great dragon roast though. I was working mostly in the Haunted Mansion/Pirates shop at the time and would have had a fantastic view.

I love it when Dan mentions about how everyone was talking about famiy`s dynamics, because after going to Fantasmic very often with my parents as a child, last time I went there as a 20 something year old with my dad and heading to our car in the while there were so many happy families holding hands, happily digesting their day at the park and the spectacle they had just witnessed, I just felt so nostalgic and in awe I started legit crying in joy that I got to experience that again with my father. Idk I just saw me and my dad in the kids riding on their fathers shoulders with mickey ears, makes me very emotional to this day

My favorite part is bringing up Disneyland Fun. That was my entire childhood and I still watch it on Disney Dans channel.

The immediate moment Byron threw his headphones off because Ryan started screaming was the moment I knew Ryan was going to be completely unhinged for this epsiode and I was absolutely correct.

Disney Dan and his raucous laugh always make my day! Awesome episode!!

MISSED YOU GUYS!!! 😭

Thank you Ryan for still posting entertainment on KZread for us ❤

Dude I used to watch Disneyland Fun on VHS religiously as a kid. That scene at the haunted mansion used to scare the heck out of me.

Saved this up all week for a little treat after I finished a big project - it did not disappoint. Thanks guys!

Dan always brings such a joy and energy to every video he's in. I loved this one 😊 helped make my work day better

I do not consider myself to be a huge Disney head, but I have such deep love in my heart for (the original) Fantasmic. I used to listen to the soundtrack on CD so much, even though I maybe only saw it twice in my life. This is a fantastic ep guys! World Class.

So glad to see Disney Dan

It occurred to me with the Hollywood test that a film version of Fantasmic would have been a WAY better 100th anniversary movie than Wish. It feels like such a no-brainer in hindsight

This was amazing! I love how chaotic it was! ❤ need more episodes with Dan 😂

That was probably the most fun episode of FYA ever lol lots of energy lol

I cant wait to hear Dan and the guys experience. I was such a Fantasmic nerd that I had the CD they sell on the magic corner, my first ever purchase on Disneyland this show. I usually put it and mimic the Mickey waves directing the music

Okay Byron, I see you with the curled baby hairs, mans is lookin STYLED

ABSOLUTELY RIGHT abt the premier of the last Twilight movie. I would do that again in a heartbeat, it was the MOST fun ive ever had in a movie theater.

I saw one of the last showings before Murphy took the stage for her last time! Wild and so glad I got to see it because it’s literally my favorite show at any Disney park

PLEASE do an episode about Poseidon’s Fury from Islands of Adventure!! That show never got the love it deserved, and I am so sad that it’s gone and will probably be replaced by some other screen based attraction. I feel like it deserves a eulogy on this podcast!

Loving this podcast and glad it came back, plus Fantasmic is such a great show that encompasses Disney 😀

I love this pod so hard! Dan, Dallin, Defunctland, Jenny, Mandy, Craig, Mike from the party -PURE GOLD!!! ♥️♥️♥️

Everything about this episode was perfect. I needed this today! 10/10

2:00:00 Dan released his most powerful laugh to conclude the podcast and even Byron could not resist it.

Dammit i skipped ahead and it got me too😂

And we are back! Wazoo!!!

Two hours is goated

Love the energy for this one!

The Disney villains teamed up in Kingdom Hearts too! Pls tell me Ryan has played it before, some absolutely hilarious Mickey moments are in that series.

This is the happiest any FYA pod has made me

Ryan, thank you so much for advocating for how much more harmonious Fantasmic 1.0 was between segments! My family and I are die-hard Fantasmic fans and were there for the premiere of 2.0 and were...heartbroken LOL We'll still catch second shows if time permits and there's some empty tables next to Golden Horseshoe but I miss 1.0 sooo much. Also I hate that I can't find proof of this, but I know on the premiere of 2.0, during the genie segment they showed projections of the princesses as harem dancers and it was like immediately taken out (along with what a LOT of Elizabeth's screaming during the Pirates scene). So jarring and just really stomped all over the integrity of the show imo LMAOO

If you saw Into the Woods at the Ahmanson, that was the Broadway revival. Not Community Theatre. It was directed in a minimalist style.

TWO HOURS LONG!? Thank you so much 🥹🫶🏻

Omg you just saved my Tuesday ❤

This is my favorite show!!!!! Can’t wait to listen🥰

Such a great episode!

i have the full 20-minute soundtrack to this show on some of my playlists and I highly recommend listening to it on a lil drive... my friends hate me lol

Couldn’t have asked for a better guest to cover THE fantasmic. I’ve been waiting for you guys to cover this forever and with Dan’s inclusion I’m even more stoked!

Finally, Disney Dan!

The old show was willing to pull strange things disney kind of wanted to forget like pink elephants. It was actually pretty provocative at the time.

DISNEY DAN!!!! I was so hoping he’d make it to the pod. One of my very favorite KZread channels. 💕

"By the way, it's Rivers..." He's still got one up on Art Linkletter from the Opening Day broadcast by remembering where the river(s) is/are. "...down the Rivers of the World...of America, that is!"

I'm 2 and a half minutes in and I already love Disney Dan. Also I'm going to Tokyo Disney next month!

@43:40 my little brother was obsessed with this sing along. We would play it when he was crying to get him to shut up. This part always freaked us out. We wouldn't even ride the haunted mansion almost exclusively because of this part of the show.

HELL YEAH! Can’t wait to watch this one!

I love this so much!!!!!

this was just incredible

thanks for the intro to Disney Dan!!! he’s amazing!

We need an episode of Top 5 Beatdown with Disney Dan.

I need someone to put the Fantasmic Mickey noises over Mario's "WAHOO"s in Mario 64.

i love disney dan, dan the disney man, im a fan of the man with the disney plan.

I was hoping Disney Dan would be on the pod one day! One of my favorite Disney dudes! Also of course he comes dressed in his Mickey Mouse church ropes 😂😂😂

1:43:34 I will add to the smartphone test that you can make it a winding down thing! I usually arrive to the designated waiting area at least 40 min befores to get a good seat; then as we get closer in time get someone on line while someone else from the group goes and gets hot cocoa and a cookies for everyone so by the time you are seated waiting for it to start you can be drinking your hot cocoa, eat your cookie rest from the day and just enjoy the scenery of being at Disney. Best part of any Disney day for me, waiting with my hot cocoa for Fantasmic to start

I didn’t know who Disney Dan was until this episode and a few minutes in and I’m sad that I’ve been deprived for this long. I so distinctly remember watching Fantasmic for the first time (tbf I’ve only seen it twice) it was 2011 my first and only time to Disneyland back when I was 17 and I was with my parents. We had just done Haunted Mansion and I remember buying this Tinkerbell pullover because it was starting to get chilly. We wanted to watch the fireworks but bumped into this lovely family that gave us the inside scoop on Fantasmic so we waited for that instead. It was so fun. I watched it in Hollywood Studies last year and it was just as great but I do prefer the set up in Disneyland. I’ll be heading to Tokyo Disneyland in a few weeks so will have to make time for it again.

Since world is more so our home park, I had no idea that when we just visited disneyland last month that we got the 'superior' version with peter pan versus the pirates. I agree I literally said out loud "oh what!" when the ship came out of literal nowhere. With hollywood studios you can kinda see the barges lining up and coming over. Totally caught me by surprise and loved it. We did get the down version of the dragon scene with malifacent rising and the dragon being on the water which I was sorta sad about but totally understandable why they dont have a new dragon yet. I will say that the moana and frozen scenes hit hard for me in a pure disney way but I can also understand why someone wouldnt like

This is the greatest podcast I've ever randomly come across, listener FOR LIFE

Here for Disney Dan because he deserves all the love

These boys didn’t play Kingdom Hearts and it shows when they mention the villains team up 😂

DISNEY DAN! The man with the best laugh on You Tube

Hopefully, when you guys do radiator spring racers, you bring that Gentleman that has ridden it 14,000+ times. He's a legend.

I can’t wait to get my pod watcher fix ❤😭

I laughed out loud when Ryan said, "ALL your cracks?"

We used to watch that 90s video of Disneyland songs all the time!!

We’re so back

I’ve seen both Disneylands and worlds fantasmic. I saw Disneylands the month before Murphy burned lol. I will always prefer sitting in a beautiful amphitheater with the Disney mania music on. I think Disney worlds fantasmic will always be the best version.

Right on time for eating breakfast

I love change, but my wife and I can’t watch Fantasmic anymore after they removed the Elephants on Parade and made other changes that we think are far inferior to the original numbers. (We did like Murphy, compared to the original puppeteer dragon) Another major change that was a mistake, IMO, is brining in Sorcerer Mickey to defeat the dragon instead of waiting for the finale for his big reveal. It was so much cooler to see THE Mickey appear at the peak of the stage to finish off the show.

I was there when the dragon caught on fire. All of us were laughing at first and then it turned into chaos. Super scary experience and we got stuck on the bridge that goes over Pirates and trampling was happening. I absolutely love Fantasmic but that memory will always stick with me.

I immediately remembered that Haunted Mansion Maleficent sing along lol. I probably haven't thought about that in decades.

We are back babyyyy

Okay so no one ever knows what I’m talking about but does ANYONE remember the old like plastic lunchboxes you’d get when buying a kids meal before Fantasmic? I can’t find anything on it but I swear I got one when I was a kid

Truly unhinged to call a show at the Ahmanson Theater (the second most popular theater performance space in Los Angeles) “community theater.”

RAHHH DISNEYLAND FUN MENTIONED👹🗣👹❤️🗣 a big part of my childhood was watching the sing-along songs VHSs but yeah that grim grinning ghosts scene gave me the heebie jeebies😭

I NEED to know what Ryan thinks about the new version of the show!!
