This is the Live Call-in Show from this past Sunday night, September 20, 2026! Mike and Scott were back together for the hour taking your calls! We started the show with some discussion of our favorite savory snacks around Walt Disney World, with the coming of fall this week and hopefully some cooler temperatures soon! We got a great call from Tricia, who was live at Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party, with updates from her trip so far, including a bit of time at Universal! We also heard from Listener Cindy in St. Charles, Missouri about her thoughts on why a Disneyland trip was easier with her toddler than heading to Walt Disney World. This and much more on today's show! Come join us in the BOGP Clubhouse this week at www.beourguestpodcast.com/discord. Please visit our website at www.beourguestpodcast.com.

Today we are very excited to have Becky joining us from up near Boston to share her Land/Sea trip to Walt Disney World and on DCL this past summer! We start off by discussing her stay at Disney's Fort Wilderness Cabins, renting a golf cart, enjoying the theme parks (in spite of the rain!), an amazing dessert party, an amazing Blizzard Beach day and more! Then, we hear about her family's first Disney Cruise on the Disney Fantasy! We talk about embarkation, dining, the kids' clubs, shows, a fun trivia win, and much, much more! Were these theme park fans won over by Disney Cruise Line? We hope you can continue the conversation with us this week in the Be Our Guest Podcast Clubhouse at www.beourguestpodcast.com/clubhouse!

We are very excited to have our friend Maria from Chicago back on the show today to share her trip she took with her husband Jeff to Tokyo Disneyland this past spring! We discuss planning the trip and how you can make getting there a bit less expensive and more comfortable! We definitely spend a majority of the show talking about the fun times they had in both parks, as well as discussing the overall culture of the place! Hear how Tokyo Disneyland is both comfortable and familiar and new and exotic at the same time!

Today marks 25 years since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in Pennsylvania, Washington, DC, and New York City. With Mike being out of the Studio this week, he recorded this one a bit early and made this a hybrid episode of the Be Our Guest Podcast & Mike in the Midwest. Today, he shares where he was when he found out the news of this event, and how he became a "teacher" that day in front of 27 scared and confused students. He also discusses what this podcast has meant to him over the past 18 years and why your support has meant so much! Thank you for always being there!

Today Mike & Scott take a break from the Listener Questions (since Mike is currently sailing on the Disney Treasure) to talk some Disney Cruise Line with you! Scott came up with the idea during last week's Live Call-in Show to come up with an "All-Star" Disney Cruise Line ship from components of the existing DCL fleet. We pick the very best restaurants, atrium statues, adult dining venues, sports spots, coffee bars, lounges, staterooms, and much more! We can't wait to hear YOUR idea of the "All-Star" DCL ship too!
