Trammin' - A Disneyland Podcast

There are probably a few things that pop right into your head when we say "Christmas at Disneyland." And we can bet that "it's a small world" Holiday is one of them. Whether it's a world of laughter or a world of tears, this ride is the merriest cruise of all through the holidays around the world. The sights and the sounds take us way back to our very first trip around the globe on one of those little ...

Christmastime Topic from Trammin'verse: The Muppet Christmas Carol

The Marleys were dead: to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that. The spirit of Christmas, however, is not. Who better to bring it alive than The Muppets themselves! 1992's beloved The Muppet Christmas Carol lives on in the hearts of many, including the listeners of this very show. Whether it be the serious acting, playful spirits, or beloved Mup...

Who better to bring it alive than The Muppets themselves! 1992's beloved The Muppet Christmas Carol lives on in the hearts of many, including the listeners of this very show.

Christmastime Topic from Trammin' Episode 290

There ain't no such thing as a free lunch, at least that's what they tell me. Though it seems there may be a few free things at The Disneyland Resort. At least, included with your paid admission and parking. Buttons & park maps & stickers, oh my. The free gifts are endless, and possibly worthless. Don't kick a gift horse in the mouth though. Instead, join Kirk...

We may not be thankful for Bob anymore, but we're thankful for Defunctland! Over this past Thanksgiving, Kevin Perjurer and the fine folks at Defunctland released their newest documentary feature: "Disney's Living Characters: A Broken Promise." We have so many thoughts that we can't help but share. Revelations, realizations, and reanimations really got us reared up and ready to record. So sit back, watch th...

Christmastime Topic from Trammin' Episode 289

Another year has gone by, and another Christmas has come, as it does this time each year. It's mostly the same, and not much is new. Do we crave new things, or do we yearn for the Christmases gone by? We look forward to traditions, letting go of old ones, making room for new ones. We grow older as the marshmallow world of our childhood melts away. But we grow fonder of new root...

Another year has gone by, and another Christmas has come, as it does this time each year. It's mostly the same, and not much is new. Do we crave new things, or do we yearn for the Christmases gone by? We look forward to traditions, letting go of old ones, making room for new ones. We grow older as the marshmallow world of our childhood melts away. But we grow fonder of new roots that take hold. What makes Christmas special to ...

Big Thunder Topic from Trammin' Episode 288

On November, 23, 2022, we released an episode titled “Thanks be to Bob." Bob Iger suddenly, without warning, replaced Bob Chapek, in a grand return to the Walt Disney Company as CEO. We thought this could be the start of a new era for Disney, shiny and chrome. But we were all deceived, for another dark era began. We're not quite happy with the state of the parks and our expe...

On November, 23, 2022, we released an episode titled “Thanks be to Bob." Bob Iger suddenly, without warning, replaced Bob Chapek, in a grand return to the Walt Disney Company as CEO. We thought this could be the start of a new era for Disney, shiny and chrome. But we were all deceived, for another dark era began. We're not quite happy with the state of the parks and our experiences within them. Prices are as high as the c...

We are having a meetup for Trammin' Through the Snow!

Friday, December 5th at 5:00pm at Disney California Adventure Park

We'll be hanging out at Hollywood Lounge for Festival of Holidays to eat, drink, and be merry. At some point we'll try to get on a few rides and maybe park hop for some fireworks.

We know reservations are hard to come by right now but we're confident some will open up.

Hope to see ya real soon!

The world’s a big place. Sometimes it’s a little scary. There’s just so much we need to see. But what if we didn’t have to? What if… you could travel safely all the time?

Preview topic from Trammin' Preview: Holiday Foodie Guide 2025 with Kirk & Kev

Well well well, we just couldn't keep ourselves away from a foodie guide. We did jinx it though, and I asked my brother Kev to take Rain's place this week. He was, in fact, the host of a world-renowned podcast all about reading during recording. This year's foodie guide to the holidays is sticky with toffee, a little minty, and a l...

Well well well, we just couldn't keep ourselves away from a foodie guide. We did jinx it though, and I asked my brother Kev to take Rain's place this week. He was, in fact, the host of a world-renowned podcast all about reading during recording. This year's foodie guide to the holidays is sticky with toffee, a little minty, and a little meaty. So let's take a bite out of this news and get ready for the holidays ...

Big Thunder Topic from The Trammin'verse: Kirk & Rain Get Away from it All

Kirk & Rain, should stay in their lane.

But the escape is just too alluring.

And if they leave, there is much to gain.

With rest, there will be healing.

The reason to leave, is maybe to breathe.

Get away from it all, and enjoy the air this fall.

At the end is return, and so much to learn.

The rest that we earn, fades away and we yearn.

Tramtober is all about the spooky little vibes at The Disneyland Resort. But we're not so sure if there are five whole episodes' worth of spookiness at Disneyland. So we entered the Trammin'verse once again to delivery you what you've been asking for... the rest of SoCal's Halloween Haunts. Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights, Knott's Scary Farm, Queen Mary: Dark Harbor, and of course, Cali...

Dark Rides are classic attractions at Disneyland. Possibly the most quintessential theme park rides. But we're not here to talk about little storybook rides in the dark. We're talking about "Dark" rides. Open the Disneyland App or website and filter by "Dark" and you'll see what we're talking about. And if you can't, maybe turn up the brightness a little bit. Either way, join Kirk & ...
