236: The Riffraff Report – Disney Adventure World For Real People
Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast
Vanessa saw the ideal version of Disney Adventure World. Beth saw the blooper reel—and somehow, that was even better. This week on the Dedicated to DLP podcast, Beth returns from a trip that involved a 450 page book, one slightly damp poncho, and what felt like a million other people who all had the same brilliant idea. While Vanessa previously experienced the polished, VIP preview of the new World of Frozen and Adventure Bay, Beth went in during the Easter holiday chaos and discovered what it’s actually like when Frozen Ever After hits 120 minutes, Crush goes down half the day, and the...

235: World of Frozen Preview Trip Report (Snowflower Festival Edition)
Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast
There are episodes where we try to cram in a North Mountain of listener questions, and then there are episodes where we just hand the mic to Vanessa and let her run wild. This is very much the latter. Vanessa is back from a secret mission—okay, not secret, but definitely exclusive—to the brand‑new World of Frozen at Disney Adventure World. She walked the land before the public gets to, touched all the things she promised she’d touch, and came back with opinions. Strong ones. And Beth, being the supportive co‑host she is, decided the only reasonable thing to do was sit back and let...

234: DLP Strategy Session: Listener Mail Edition
Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast
This week on the Dedicated to DLP Podcast, Vanessa is back! She has returned from braving her own personal Catastrophe Canyon, and Beth could not be more relieved to have her co-host safely in the chair, with a large box of Kleenxes nearby. Yes, Vanessa is pretty unwell, but she is being brave and the D2DLP duo is ready to do what they do best: chat about DLP and discuss letters from their favorite people—the D2DLP listeners! There were big plans to tackle five letters, but we were having so much fun that we only made it through four. First up, the fabulous Kesha from Long Island checks in...

233: DLP vs WDW (with Niels Capturing Parks!)
Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast
He's back! We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Niels to the microphone once again. You know him as the brilliant photographer behind Niels Capturing Parks, a fellow member of the Insidears family, and the co-host of the Air Magique podcast. He joins us for a conversation we have been wanting to have for a very long time. Niels knows Disneyland Paris like the back of his hand. But he has also spent time at Walt Disney World, and even better, he has a trip to Florida on the horizon. We thought it was the perfect moment to put him on the spot and compare the two resorts from every possible...

Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast
Location check: Beth is currently recording from a frozen fortress, channeling her inner Elsa. Vanessa is in Germany with exactly one hour of free time before she has to do a literal mic drop and bolt out of the studio. You know the vibes. We've got news. Like, actual big news that involves the very top of the Walt Disney Company and a certain parks guy moving into the big corner office. We have thoughts. Optimistic thoughts, even. Also, Disneyland Paris just won something shiny. Like, an actual industry award for one of their nighttime offerings. We're choosing to take this as...

229: The D2DLP Christmas Special 2025
Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast
"The D2DLP Team were alive, to begin with (even though Beth had a pretty bad cold, tbh) Their episode 229 script was signed by Natasha Rafalski, Bob Iger, Ben Spalding and the chief Mouse (as in Mickey).” OK. Maybe our take on “A Christmas Carol” won’t hold up, but the whole, gloriously chaotic D2DLP crew IS BACK—Vanessa, Beth, and Marq— together for a very special festive takeover to send you off into the holidays. Take a minute, grab a mug of something warm, and prepare for an episode packed with seasonal cheer, incredible stories, and a guest appearance that’s pure...

228: Jinglebread Jive
Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast
The whole (and admittedly chaotic) crew is back for a festive takeover! Vanessa, Marq, and Beth reunite just in time tokick off December, and the Disneyland Paris Christmas spirit has officially sent them off-script and into the weeds. They’re festive weeds, though !. Tune in for an extra holly-jolly episode where we get into the most wonderful time of the year at DLP. We’re talking seasonal magic, twinkling lights, and a heated debate about baked goods that can only be resolved by invoking international baked goods law. Then Marq sings"Smelly Cat". It gets weird. We’ve also...

227: Disney Adventure World: It's a Date
Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast
Looking for ADVENTURE ? Then welcome to our North Mountain-sized, can’t-miss episode of the Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast! Your hosts Beth and Marq are coming at you with a special, off-schedule recording because the news from Disneyland Paris this week was just too big and too exciting to wait.

info_outlineDisneyland Paris: Where Snacks Meet the Force (and Occasionally a Ride Closure) – Do Not Skip This Episode Recap!
Join your favorite DLP radio transmission operatives, Beth and Marq, as they dive into the wild, whimsical, and sometimes "temporarily unavailable" world of **Disneyland Paris**!
Ride Roulette: Which attractions are open, which are "getting a magical makeover" (aka closed), and what’s coming soon? Spoiler: More construction walls than the Emperor's fortress.
May the 4th Be With You (And Your Stomach): We dish on Star Wars snacks, from lightsaber snacks (is that a churro or an actual Sith weapon?) to cookies that are hopefully not as dry as the dunes of Tatooine. Do not get too excited, DLP only has a Burger, a Macaron, and two (non-Wookie) cookies. Maybe next year.
The Great Wall of Disney (Studios) : Rides come and go, but the walls? The walls are forever. Or at least until the next expansion opens (at least 5 lion years.)
Disney Music Festival: Where else can you cry to "Let It Go" while eating a Mickey-shaped beignet? Beth and Marq debate their fave performances ( spoiler- nothing says "magical" like rodent DJs ).
Meet & Greet Greatness: Say "bonjour" to virtual queues for characters
Pass the kids please: Introducing a children’s annual pass—AKA "How to Bankrupt Parents in the Most Magical Way Possible."
Love Our Listeners: Real guests, real drama, real fun—"We waited HOW long for Crush’s Coaster?!" Plus, dining reviews that answer the eternal question: "Are these French fries legal to sell to Belgians?"
Final Thoughts: Despite the walls, the waits, and the ever-changing landscape, Beth and Marq remind listeners that Disneyland Paris still delivers the magic — there are giddy gasps between the gaping gaps.
