This is one of my favorite Disney/US/DCL podcasts! I have been listening for years and not only do Dan and Leslie have great takes, they also seem like kind and fun people!

This is a great new find for me, the hosts seem like genuinely nice people giving honest reviews. Glad I found this, it’s getting me so excited about upcoming trips.

I love this podcast and Dan & Leslie so much! Hearing their knowledge about and love for Disney keeps me feeling connected to the magic between trips. I feel like you are my friends and we hang out all the time between podcast episodes, YouTube videos and Insta stories! I hope we see you in the parks when we head down next!

I am currently planning our families third Disney trip, but this will be our first time visiting Epcot (gasp, I know!). I stumbled across ATTM while searching for Epcot specific episodes.. and WOW where has this podcast been while planning my prior trips?? This podcast has made me SO excited about Epcot that I told my husband we need to add an extra day there this trip. I have bookmarked so many episodes to go back and relisten to, and I’m now working my way back through all of their episodes. So glad I stumbled upon this podcast and can’t wait to keep planning with ATTM! One side note - I’d love if you did Figment before January and report back if it’s worth it :) THANK YOU and keep up the fantastic work Dan and Leslie!

I just wanted to say a special thank you to Dan and Leslie for being so fantastical. They not only make terrific, fun and high quality YouTube content for Disney fans but they also have found time to record informative Podcasts all the while running their travel company. They have helped us book our vacations with attention and perfection. I know they were on their ABD and Leslie still took the time to handle a cruise booking for us. I really can’t say enough about these two and their team. They have been such an inspiration to me, as I have followed their move to Florida and I so enjoyed watching them work so diligently to make their Disney dreams come true. If anyone is booking a Disney trip, Abd or a cruise, please use Fantastical vacations. They will help make your travel plans full of pixie dust.

Hi Dan and Leslie, I am 11 years old and I am a huge Disney fan. Your podcast is so amazing. I like learning more about Disney world because I usually go to Disneyland. I listen to the podcast with my mom on drives. I can’t wait to see what the future of the podcast brings. Thank you!

We started listening to your podcast over 3 years ago as we had just booked our first Disney World trip ever! We felt totally prepared and were able to enjoy every aspect of the trip and have officially become Disney adults. Since our first trip in December 2022 we have been to Disneyland Paris and did 4 parks in 1 day at Disney World and have another trip planned in Jan 2026! Thank you for all the information you provide it is truly helpful. We listen every week! Boomer Sooner!

Thank you so much for your delightful and informative podcast! I haven’t been to Disney since before the pandemic, so it’s great to vicariously live through your Disney descriptions and Universal Studios stories. You have delightful banter and a lovely rapport. You make me excited to dream about a future family vacation!

My family and I live about two hours from Disney and we go about 4X a year. We have been listening for about 8 months trying to find some better tips/tricks and maximize our stays. Dan and Leslie have made our planning and experiences more fulfilling!!! On a funny note. Watching the latest review on youtube about Ogas Cantina had my whole family laughing out loud!! Dans face is all of us when a restaurant misses big!!!. I highly recommend subscribing to Dan and Leslie !!!

Love Dan and Leslie! Very informative and easy to listen to! The information they have provided on their podcast has helped me plan many Disney trips! Thanks for all the information you provide!!

We’ve always enjoyed listening to Dan & Leslie since discovering them two years ago . Their podcasts and YouTube videos are informative and thorough. We particularly like that they are able to balance being entertaining and fun without getting sidetracked or overly silly. Despite how much we’ve enjoyed listening to and learning from them, as DVC owners since 2022 as well as annual pass holders, I honestly thought it would not be worth their while to help us with any vacation plans. Cue trying to plan a BIG trip in August which will include our adult children, their partners, and our granddaughter. Even though I pride myself in the ability to plan, trying to navigate educating them on their options and the various ‘timelines’ we have to meet (dining reservations, Lighting Lanes, MNSSHP) was overwhelming. I reached out to Leslie just to see if it was worth it for her to get the theme park tickets and help me link them. She could not have been more gracious and accommodating. Since then she has helped us get our Halloween Party tickets and dinner reservations. After listening to their show on whether the dining plan is worth it, we will probably also have her secure dining plans for all seven of us as well. Having her help with all the ‘tech’ involved frankly would be worth it to me even if it wasn’t free. And I love, as Dan mentioned, supporting a small business. Thank you Dan & Leslie for EVERYTHING-can’t wait to have you help us plan our first Disney cruise in 2027.

Good show. But they ranked Mickey and Minnie Runaway Railway as the number one ride in Hollywood Studios. Get out of here. No one in my family likes that ride. But the show is entertaining.

Dan and Leslie are the absolute best. I swear they read my mind because every time I have a question or wonder about something, they have either already done an episode on the topic or one appears later. I was hoping for an updated episode about Disney cruises…bam there it was. I had questions about Epic Universe…weeks later an episode popped up. I wondered about the differences between VIP at Disney and Universal…an episode appeared. I was curious about the Hilton Head property…new episode. It never fails. I appreciate how in tune they are with their listeners and how they are able to provide content that is both relevant and helpful. They definitely have made my vacation planning easier over the past few years.

I have been listening for a few years now and enjoy the podcast as well as the dining reviews on YouTube very much. You weren’t the first Disney podcast I listened to, others have come and gone, but the only one I’ve stuck with. That is because you are a realistic vacation guide. You have a family and understand that the cost involved with a Disney vacation can be very expensive. Other podcasts claim “you must stay at a deluxe resort” or “have to stay concierge level” to have the best experience. We have vacationed at all levels of the resorts and have found it’s the people you are with and the memories you make with them is what’s important. Staying at the Contemporary was very nice, but we also had a wonderful time staying at All Star Music. I like that you realize budgeting is very important when planning a Disney trip. Keep up the great work and hope to run into you on our visit later this summer.

Thank you, Dan and Leslie, for bringing joy to my week—every week! Last night, after a long drive home from a road trip, I needed a pick-me-up and knew exactly where to go: your podcast. I absolutely love tuning in for all your updates on Disney, Disney Cruise Line, Universal, and Adventures by Disney. Your passion is infectious, your dynamic is so fun, and you two are total couple goals! Listening to Addicted to the Mouse feels like hanging out with friends who just get it. You bring Disney to life in such a special way, and I’m so grateful you share your travel lives with all of us. I started listening right after booking our 2023 trip, and when it came time to plan our 2025 adventure, I knew exactly where to go—Fantastical Vacations! Leslie helped us from start to finish in planning the most magical stay at Port Orleans French Quarter. We’re already dreaming about the next one! I even cried during The Festival of the Lion King..just overwhelmed with gratitude to be there. Thank you again for all that you do! You’ve made this Disney fan feel seen, inspired, and always excited for the next adventure.

Dear Dan and Leslie, I am a newer listener to your Podcast and look forward to each new episode! Your joy and passion for Disney shines through in every episode, along with your clear mission and goals - all inspiring to listeners like me. I find myself agreeing and nodding my head while listening to you describe the happiness Disney moments bring to your lives. You are living your dreams and that shines through in what you do! Thank you!

Excellent

I am a newer Disney podcast listener, and I started with ATTM and another podcast who has the same jingle, so I thought they may be similar (I have since learned this is not the case). Dan and Lesley simply give amazing advice without being skewed and they are very kind towards Disney on a budget/families going to Disney. The other podcast I unfollowed because they made it sound like if you didn’t go all out, you weren’t doing Disney correctly. Thank you guys for being so fun and giving amazing, helpful advice!!

Have listens to many Disney related podcast’s over the years but you guys are the only one I still listen too. Love the variety from parks to cruise to dining and universal - you guys are great. Unfortunately your admission that you are Sooner fans might make m give up my favorite podcast - I’m willing to forgive this - if you can pay homage to greatest team in college sports - Hookem Horns. All joking aside your podcast is the best Disney / Universal I have found. Love your on the go episodes.

This is such a fun pod. Listening to Dan & Leslie discuss Disney feels like having a drink with your best friends and hearing about their amazing adventures & learning about the theme parks. A must listen if you love Disney/Universal. Also I’ve been working with Leslie for an upcoming Disney cruise and she is fantastic!

Dan and Leslie have done an incredible job of keeping the magic alive for me. I’ve listened to their podcast leading up to my Disney trip and wrote down many of their tips and favorites to try while I was there (Satuli Canteen was delicious, highly recommend taking your time to explore the World Showcase, and if you saw me crying during MK fireworks - no you didn’t). As soon as I got home, the Disney blues hit hard. Listening to this podcast has incorporated the magic and joy that Disney brings me into my daily life. I can’t thank them enough!!

I absolutely love listening to this podcast. I am a huge Disney fan and love being able to share the magic in between trips. I especially love the on the go episodes! It really feels like you are right there with them! I just want to say I am sometimes picky about podcasts because the voices of the hosts can be annoying or hard on the ears. I love listening to their voices. Dan and Leslie are definitely meant for podcasting. Thank you so much for all your tips and tricks. We are heading to Disney and Universal next May and I cannot wait to hear more about Epic Universe so I can plan our trip!

Dan & Leslie, I’ve been listening to your podcast for about a year now, and I absolutely love it! I often find myself going back to older episodes whenever I need a Disney fix between your Wednesday and Sunday releases. It’s such a joy hearing two Disney-loving spouses share your passion for Disney, Universal, and cruising in such a genuine and fun way. I’ve been hooked for a while, but your recent episode about the Hilton Head Island resort truly made my heart so full! Hearing you talk about the sea turtles and ways to help preserve the local wildlife and marine life meant so much. And as a big fan of Local Legends and Nectar, I was thrilled to hear you highlight some of my favorite restaurants! I love popping over to the HHI Disney resort for a quick Disney escape or just to grab a Dole Whip, and I can’t wait to actually stay there someday. Thanks for all the joy and magic you bring to your listeners!

I found you guys about 2 years ago when my husband and I were planning our first trip to Disney, which was our honeymoon as well and listening to this podcast helped me so much in planning this trip!!! 2 years later I am still an avid listener and YouTube subscriber! We are planning our next trip this October with our baby who will be 8 months old and I love listening to hear the best food, best deals, and upcoming news!! I’m also using a Fantastical Vacations agent who is an absolute rockstar!!

I look forward to listening to Dan and Leslie every week and it helps add some magic to my work week! They have the best tips for planning Disney vacations and I have been loving your reviews on Epic Universe and Universal! I also have been going through all of the episodes I have missed and the Q&A with Jennings from last year made me tear up! When he said that Philharmagic warmed his heart, that was the cutest!! I totally agree!! Also when he said “Gotta get that merch” so real!!!!! I need that on a shirt! Love hearing about your experiences and you all make my day! Love this podcast!

I’ve been a big fan of the podcast for about 2 years now. We recently completed our 2nd WDW/DCL trip. While we felt pretty comfortable booking everything ourselves based on our previous trip and podcast info, I reached out to Leslie to plan this trip. Her communications were “lighnting lane” fast and kept us on the ball for planning reservations the whole time. Not only did we receive an on-board credit, Leslie was also able to keep an “ear” out for resort price adjustments, which we never would have done for ourselves. I can’t wait for Leslie to help us plan again, this time using our DCL placeholders!

I met Dan and Leslie at Epic on 4/26 and was starstruck. These two are Orlando heroes and were so nice to give me a minute of their time. My gf was jealous she didn’t get to meet Leslie! Thanks for making my first visit to epic even more memorable and for the pin!

Dan and Leslie help me to keep the Disney magic alive all year long. Before, during and after our Disney World trips I love listening to them for tips, tricks, and honest reviews. Their expert knowledge and approachable style makes them the perfect podcast for anyone thinking about a Disney vacation. After years of planning on my own I recently reached out to Leslie to help with an upcoming trip. She has been so responsive and helpful already. I love to see each new episode appear on my phone, and I can’t wait to listen each time!

Dan and Leslie have created my absolute favorite Disney podcast. From their home life to their many Disney adventures they continuously take us along for the ride giving us amazing tips and insight along the way. They tell it like it is but in a very kind way and make you feel like you are part of their expansive friend group. Thank you so much for bringing Disney and travel into my every day life! P.S. Leslie I have enjoyed hearing about your mom perspective of having a college student as my daughter is the same age as Aiden and I’m going thru the same thing. Oh and Dan - I do not enjoy packing but am originally from WI.

If you’re looking for an incredible Disney podcast, look no further. Dan & Leslie are absolute mavens of all things Disney and Universal. They have a true knack for entertaining and educating their audience. They are straight-shooters and always give honest thoughts, insight, and feedback to help others have the ultimate trip experience. Not headed on vacation any time soon? This podcast is the perfect escape from your daily grind. After a few minutes of listening, you will feel like you’re walking on Main Street with the castle in view and a Joffrey’s coffee in hand. Dan and Leslie constantly strive to broaden listener’s Disney Horizons with fresh news and brilliant trip advice. Not to mention, I can’t think of a better example of a real-world Jim & Pam dynamic than these two. Thank you for all that you do to make Addicted to the Mouse such a high-caliber show. From a fellow Okie, Y’ALL are amazing!

Dan and Leslie are incredibly passionate and authentic people. This is by far the best podcast when they’re discussing WDW. Universal and DCL take up more podcast time than ever before, which I wish would change. Overall, still on the of the best shows out there.

This podcast is so amazing. As a Disney lover, such as myself, I have so much respect for the amount of time they put into these episodes. I listen to this every night and in the morning and I love this podcast so much. I look forward to new episodes every day and especially love you’re on the go episodes. Thank you to both Dan and Leslie for putting out such an amazing podcast.

Long-time listener here! Dan and Leslie are as real as it gets — delivering honest, cheerful, and entertaining content all about Disney! My family doesn’t get to visit Orlando often, so their podcast is the perfect way to scratch that Disney itch while we’re here in Tennessee (my 6-year-old is a fan and lovingly calls Dan “Disney Man!”). Even their boys make appearances from time to time, and they always come across as so polite and gentlemanly — who wouldn’t want to support this sweet family?! Subscribe and listen — then head over to their YouTube channel for even more great content. 10/10 recommend!

I discovered Dan and Leslie's podcast several years ago while planning my first Disney World trip with my kids. Even though our vacation is long past, I still listen every week because Dan and Leslie are so cheerful and add a sprinkle of Disney magic to my work week. When it came time to plan our family's first Disney cruise, Leslie was a tremendous help, a wonderful resource, and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend this podcast for anyone who loves Disney or is planning a Disney vacation!

To prepare for the increasing complexities of a Disney World trip, I tried MANY Disney travel podcasts, including other popular and highly-rated ones. While generally decent, they all felt like they were missing something. However, something “clicked” when I found “Addicted to the Mouse.” This show stands out from others for 3 main reasons: First, it is clear that Dan and Leslie Lowry put in a LOT of time and preparation to make every episode a well-produced, organized, and thoroughly enjoyable listen for their wide array of audience members. I personally appreciated their many relevant stories of taking their two kids on Disney trips, from crazy toddler days through teenage years to now almost-adulthood(!). However, they are far from “one-trick-ponies,” and their content is relatable and insightful to all, whether you’re about to lead a trip for a large group of family, going with a friend or loved one, or traveling by yourself… or simply looking for a nostalgia-filled, Disney escape. Second, their delivery is unmatched and instantly endearing. Their voices are both truly pleasant to listen to—we’re talking professional TV/radio host “silky smooth”! And their cute back-and-forth banter, their obvious joy for what they do, and their inspiring love for each other are all evident throughout. Finally, and most importantly, the “why” behind what they do should convince you to give them a watch or listen. Dan and Leslie are guided by a mission to share their passion for all things Disney and help others navigate the overwhelming aspects of planning a trip. Although they own a travel agency specializing in Disney (and Universal), it is clear that this podcast isn’t merely to support their business but perhaps the other way around; instead, it is clear that their business is just another way for them to pursue their important mission to help others discover magical travel experiences. Ultimately, what makes their content so special is what makes Disney World special: a desire to transport the audience to a world of joy and adventure and a drive to constantly seek innovative ways to keep doing that… It’s as if Dan and Leslie secretly captured some of that “Disney magic” and “pixie dust” to spread across their own content. Walt himself would be proud.

Me and my mom have listen to every episode from the past 10 years. You guys are amazing. We always say that we’re your best friends even though we have never even met you guys. I can’t wait for more epic universe episodes, and I’m really happy that I found you guys.

My first time listening to you all was during a 10 hour drive from Tennessee to Michigan. It was the Epic Universe on the Go episode. It captured my attention the entire way. I kept pausing, rewinding, and replaying just to feel like I was there with you all. I planned to send the episode to my sister but the episode has disappeared. Can you all re-upload it?

We love the podcast, I’ve been an avid listener for many years now! I really just wanted to let y’all know that the Epic Universe on the go episode has disappeared from episode list. I was going to play it for my teen who is PUMPED for the park, but we can’t find it! Help!

I don’t get to go to Disney very often but listening to this podcast always makes me feel that Disney magic. Thank you for all the hard work put into this fantastical podcast love you guys!

Good pod, love Disney. But using the word “whenever” about a singular past tense event is driving me bonkers! “Whenever Ayden was a baby”. No. “When Ayden was a baby” :)

I found this podcast right when Dean and Leslie were moving to Orlando. It’s been so fun to share that adventure with them and their family. Honest reviews, timely news and lots of fun keep me listening! I also decided to give Leslie a try as our travel agent after being underwhelmed by another agency. All I can say is wow! Can I plan and book a Disney trip myself? Yes. But I know Leslie is watching out for me, checking on new deals, and making sure everything gets taken care of. Five stars plus five stars for a ten star rating!

I stumbled upon this podcast as I slowly found myself transitioning into a full blown Disney adult and couldn’t be happier! I love everything about this show and even enjoy the YouTube channel. The consistent episodes help my drive to work immensely. I find myself laughing along with you guys almost every episode. This brings me a little closer to the parks as my wife and I inch closer to another trip in a few weeks! Love the show!

Hi guys-I love the pod. Special request-can you do ranking of old fashion’s at Disney world? If you need help, we will be there in May. Always glad to lend a hand. Thank you! Amber

I’ve been listening to Addicted to the Mouse for a few years now, after I planned my first trip to WDW with my daughter and wanted to learn about the parks. Now I have been a faithful listener every week, and enjoy going back and listening to the older episodes as well. I’m always so excited when new episodes drop and listen right away. Dan and Leslie have such cheery, fun and playful dispositions and I enjoy their enthusiasm and banter. They share really useful information about the parks, dining, DCL and other destinations. I appreciate their honesty when they talk about things that are not their favorite, but I also appreciate how they get very excited when they talk about something they love. I always feel so entertained and happy when I’m listening to Addicted to the Mouse, and their conversations help me feel connected to Disney when I’m not there. In fact, Dan and Leslie have inspired me to become a travel agent because I want to share my love of Disney with people and help make their Disney travel dreams come true. Thank you, Dan and Leslie, for making such great, fun and useful content for your listeners. I truly appreciate it and love you guys!

Dan and Leslie offer such a fun perspective to Disney details. I’ve enjoyed listening for a few years now. Whether it is picturing a perfect day at a Disney park or an on the go episode, their candor and stories are so fun to listen to. They are great travel planners! Used their service to book a cruise and their communication was amazing. What a great podcast we get to enjoy!

I, a Disneyland gal, found ATTM in the early planning stage of my family’s first WDW trip. I feel so lucky to have found the perfect podcast and perfect travel agents to support me through the process. Since then I have set a goal to listen to all the episodes (whoa. Just the ones on Apple Podcasts!) before my trip in April, so I feel like I spend more time with Dan and Leslie than my family members and best friends. Their honesty, knowledge, and insight is incomparable, and their overall joie de vivre is inspiring. Did I put a French phrase in there because I thought it would be fun for Leslie to pronounce it? Perhaps. I was going to wait until after my trip to write a review, but I’m so thrilled that Leslie scored all my requested dining reservations this morning, so I couldn’t. The. Best.

Episode 662 today was immensely helpful. My family has been contemplating a cruise. I did a lot of research and FOR US I thought Royal Caribbean looked like the best fit. As a Disney AP family, I kind of felt like a traitor for not leaning more into Disney cruise. However, this episode highlighted the best of each, and validated my own non-professional research. We need the best Internet you can expect at sea to stay in touch with our businesses. We only have one child who is a LOUD toddler and will spend much of his time in our room and with us. Also we are planning on a suite regardless for privacy & amenities, and we love an irrational cocktail challenge ;) Thanks for all your research to help people find the best fit for their family. <3

Until I started following Dan and Leslie, I was overwhelmed by the idea of planning a Disney World trip…they’ve relieved those stresses. Some Disney World influencers are…well, CRINGE. Dan and Leslie are normal people who just so happen to love Disney. I have a trip booked in October 2025 through their travel agency “Fantatsical Vacations” and this podcast is cultivating an excitement and preparedness for the fun that will ensue.

My favorite Disney podcast!! My son and I love listening to Dan and Leslie and now use Leslie as our travel advisor. I am so excited when a new episode drops!!

My sister in law suggested this podcast, and I’m so glad she did because I love listening to Dan and Leslie discuss all things Disney! I listened to the podcast as we planned our kids’ first trip to Disney World and felt so prepared on what to do, where to eat and how to structure our vacation even though we hadn’t been to Disney in 7 years. When we got back from our vacation, I have continued to listen because I love their context and it keeps the Disney magic alive. Thanks for all you do!
