THE DIS UNPLUGGED - DISNEY PODCAST
The DIS Unplugged podcast is a weekly roundtable discussion that discuss all aspects of planning a Disney vacation. New discussion shows are released every Wednesday and new email / voicemail shows are released every Thursday.
Our show is an unbiased and honest look at every aspect of a Disney experience - from dining and theme parks to attractions and hotels. Our team of Orlando experts includes Pete Werner, Julie Martin, Corey Martin, Kevin Klose, John Magi, Kathy Werling, Walter Echols, Teresa Echols and the Peanut Gallery.
In this show we give you a brief introduction of the DIS Unplugged and the team members involved. This show will help first time listeners get to know us without having to search through 5 years of podcasts to understand the history. Click Here to listen to the Introduction Show

Podcast Cruise 4.0!!
December 8, 2012 - 7-Night Disney Fantasy Cruise
As you already know this will be the second of two Podcast cruises in 2012. If you have booked a 'dummy' date in the hopes of moving that to Podcast Cruise 4.0 please email Tracey at TraceyH@DreamsUnlimitedTravel.com. She will be happy to help you move your cruise to this sailing but PLEASE be patient with her – I imagine she will be inundated with requests as soon as this is announced.
We have secured space and pricing on this cruise through Disney Cruise Line's groups department. A small deposit now will secure your space on this sailing ($250 per person regardless of category). We will send you a balance due reminder well before the balance due date and if you need to cancel for any reason you can do so without penalty if cancelled before the balance due date. Suites have a non-refundable deposit as per DCL policy. We will be limiting the number of passengers on this sailing the same as we did for PCC 3.0. The magic number seems to be 400 as that allows us access to all of the various venues on the ship without going over the maximum occupancy. This will provide us with different options when it comes to planning events for this cruise. Obviously it is way too early too talk about any special plans for this cruise but you know we will do our best to make it a special and memorable experience for everyone.
