Let’s be honest: where you stay at Disney says a lot about who you are. And in this episode, Ashley and Andrew are diving into the psychology (and the chaos) behind your favorite resorts — from luxury-lovers at the Grand Floridian to Birkenstock-wearin' Dole Whip dreamers at the Polynesian, and right down to the All-Star crowd who treat 6 a.m. rope drop like a competitive sport.

We’re talking:

• Riviera guests who packed a beret “just in case”

• Wilderness Lodge people who cry at fireplaces

• French Quarter stans who think beignets are breakfast

• Caribbean Beach folks who romanticize a 15-minute walk to coffee

• Gran Destino Tower travelers who want luxury on a LinkedIn budget

• Art of Animation superfans who basically live inside a Pixar movie

• …and the All-Star crew who know that $119 a night = more money for Mickey bars

No resort is safe. Every personality is on blast. And yes, we included ourselves.

We’re back from our 5-night Disney Dream sailing, and we’ve got thoughts. In this episode, we’re breaking down every part of the experience—from adults-only escapes and the spa to kids’ clubs, crew interactions, and both of Disney’s private islands: Castaway Cay and the brand-new Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.

But we’re also putting the Dream to the test: how does this classic ship compare to Disney’s newer vessels like the Wish and more classic ships like the Magic? And would we book it again?

Join us for real talk, funny moments, and honest answers to the big question: Does the Disney Dream still live up to the hype—or has it been outshined by its siblings?
