“I listen to a handful of Disney podcasts regularly and frankly there aren’t many good ones - in fact most are pretty bad. Either they are too rah rah or too boring, usually, so when a new one springs up (which is fairly often) I’ll give it a shot - which is what I did with the 3 O Clock Parade. My gut reaction after the first 2 maybe 3 episodes was “pass”. It seemed VERY SCHTICKY (Riannan was doing this against her will was a trope that they thankfully seemed to have abandoned) and VERY DERIVATIVE (in fact with each “AWWWW” and each “moving on…” i wondered if this was an homage to a certain charming other podcast -with which it shares a similar alcohol induced vibe- or an out and out rip off - or maybe in fact they were even trolling them. So I skipped the next handful of episodes. Fast forward to about three weeks ago or so and I found myself traveling a lot and running out of shows to listen to (seems a lot of shows have slowed down in releasing shows) so I gave this show another shot - and I’m glad I did as it seems to have settled in pretty nicely and I find myself enjoying my time with these people. I tell you, a show can go far on chemistry and this group has got it. Give them a listen (though if they nixed the whole Canadian Disney Store bit I wouldn’t be too sad).”
