Dan and Leslie from Addicted to the Mouse are parents of two boys who have fallen in love with Walt Disney World so much that they moved their family to Orlando to be close to the magic! They often hear friends and family say that Disney is only for kids, but couldn’t disagree more. The couple hopes to guide families on ways to experience and enjoy Disney destinations either with or without kids. Disney can be amazing as a couples only destination as well! Join Dan and Leslie as they take you through the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Disney Springs, Disneyland, Aulani, Disney Cruise Line, and all of the Disney resort hotels. Join them at Addicted to the Mouse for more travel planning advice to some of their other favorite destinations, including Universal Studios and International travel. Let’s Connect!

  • DCL vs The World: Why Choose a Disney Cruise over Walt Disney World

    DCL vs The World: Why Choose a Disney Cruise over Walt Disney World
    Sep 28 2026

    On today’s Disney Podcast, we are comparing a 4-night Disney Cruise to a 4-night Disney World vacation to see which one you should choose for your next trip to see the Mouse. This episode is Part 1, where we take the perspective of why a Disney Cruise is the better choice in terms of cost, customer service, inclusions, entertainment and more. On our next episode, we will argue the opposite perspective of why a Disney World is, in fact, the better choice in this debate. This was a fun one to record and can’t wait for the next one. Enjoy!

I really enjoy this podcast. It's not too short but not too long. I enjoy that there is continual content and new things to talk about each week. I was listening to this podcast and another one with a wife and hubby duo. I stopped listening to the other podcast when they made a comment about value resorts, specifically All Stars. I have had the privilege and honor to stay moderate and deluxe but I'm not too good for value reports and All Stars. Many families cannot afford deluxe or moderate. Some can't even afford Pop or AofA. All Stars is a great way for families to enjoy the magic of Disney on a budget and there is nothing wrong with that. I love that there is no All Stars shaming and value Disney shaming on this podcast. I cannot wait to hear about your Disney Fantasy adventures.

This is by far the best Disney Podcast out there. Dan and Leslie are so sweet and I love listening to them talk. My kids love the jingle. Their podcasts on Disney cruises are what got us to book our first Disney cruise this coming May. I especially just enjoyed the On-the-Go podcast for the Disney Destiny. I felt like I was there! Thanks for all the information! :)
