216: The Comstock Theories
Dedicated to Disneyland Paris Podcast
In episode 216, Marq and Beth go full *National Treasure* on the mysterious closure and equally baffling return of The Legends of the Wild West in Fort Comstock—Was it budget cuts? Dust allergies ? Or just DLP’s way of generating a bit of news for us poor Disney podcasters ? At any rate, it’s back now and Beth is going to be OK. Then, we pivot to other critical debates: the best (and *worst*) ways to haul your sleep-deprived family to DLP, and whether two days in the park counts as a “vacation” or a “cry for help.” GEMS YOU CAN’T MISS: Mickey...

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.
