Magic Our Way - Artistic Buffs Talkin' Disney Stuff

Magic Our Way - Artistic Buffs Talkin' Disney Stuff

The Magic Our Way podcast is a New Orleans-based Disney fan podcast that has been in production since November 2012. Danny, Kevin, Eli, and Rachel discuss all things, Disney, from theme parks to movies and much more. We allow all opinions (and not just the sugary, fluffy ones) to be voiced on the podcast, and we always look at both sides of a topic. The "Pleasure Island of Disney fan podcasts" is good for your morning and afternoon commute and all times in between, but not at bedtime because we'll keep you up. Welcome to our Disney Fans!
