News flash: it rains quite a bit in Orlando, FL. When you're at WDW, there's a good chance you're going to run into some rain showers, and when that happens what should you do? Where should you go? In today's show we try to help you come up with some ideas for making the most out of a rainy day at the "most magical place on earth." We go through each park, the resorts, and yes, even Disney Springs, to offer places to go when the water starts to pour. We hope you enjoy and benefit from our friendly discussion!
What do YOU do when the weather turns foul at Walt Disney World? Let us know!

Hello, happy haunts! We hope your week is off to a great start, and we hope we can help make it a little better with today's podcast. How often do you find Walt Disney World overlapping into your "real world" life? What lessons have you learned from WDW that help you when traveling elsewhere? What makes you appreciate the customer service you receive in the happiest place on earth? In today's episode, Matt and Craig discuss their recent trip to the Northeast and explain ways in which Disney planning helped them (or hurt them) along the way. It's a unique episode for sure, but one we think you'll enjoy! Have a great week!
Does WDW planning ever help you in your life? Let us know!

SPOILER ALERT! This episode is another "first" for Triple G, as we attempt to roundtable movie review. We felt there was no better time to try this than with the cinematic event that is Avengers: Endgame. While we are no experts on superhero movies (or anything, for that matter), we did want to share our thoughts on what has become Disney's highest grossing film of all-time. What did we like? What did we not like? Did it actually impress Derek? Listen in to find out this and more as the Grim Grinning Guys "assemble" to debate this once-in-a-lifetime film!
What did you think about Endgame? Let us know in the comments or on social media!

After last week's discussion on the two Disney water parks, what other choice did we have but than to talk about Disney Springs this week? You'll have a hard time guessing how this is going to go. Will Matt ever give the Springs a chance? Let's hope not because it is a lot more fun that way.

This was just a four-day trip, but as you'll hear they (along with their daughter) packed a week's worth of touring into that brief time, and they did it amongst the massive crowds of Spring Break! Where did they eat? What did they do? How many trips to they have planned for the remainder of 2019? As frequent visitors, what are some insider "tips and tricks" they have to offer? Find out today as we take you (virtually, of course) to Walt Disney World!

Welcome back into the graveyard, "happy haunts!" In today's episode we try to offer to actual advice as we share with you some ideas for "rider swapping" with small children. What are some things that a parent and the child while waiting for the rest of their party to disembark? We give you plenty of suggestions for each ride with a height requirement in each park! Don't just stand there waiting--find something fun to keep that child (and yourself) happy and entertained!

We have a treat for you today. An actual lawyer, Douglas Bates, joins us in the graveyard to critique our arguments from episode 110. He also makes his case for his favorite park at WDW. Sit back and enjoy our friendly banter as we give information on why our parks are the best. Just know up front that we do not take direction well and Douglas' efforts to make us better students of law were all for naught. OBJECTION!

Oh are you in luck today as we finish up our final ride queue show. Listen in as we take the final 16 ride queues and add some bracketology flair. Though you may just need to agree to disagree with Matt as he is a little on edge. What is your favorite ride to wait in line for? That's a trick question. Another pondering: What sports announcer would you like to hear narrate Haunted Mansion? Prepare to hear our answers to that very question and more on this Thursday edition of GGG. Our apologies to Massachusetts.
