Planning a trip to Disney? This is the only podcast you need! Seriously, like so many other reviewers I tried out a lot of other podcasts before finally finding Doug and Derek’s gem of a show. There are a lot of Disney themed podcasts out there that are really just 95% marketing from travel...Read full review »

Been meaning to leave a 5 star review for awhile and when I saw you were at 666 reviews, figured I would move that along! Love the banter, incredibly helpful tips, and can’t wait to put everything I’ve learned to the test during my first trip in April for my big 4-0! Thanks and keep up the great...Read full review »

Great Disney podcast! — Update: I’m not gonna knock you down a star or do you wrong like that, but please hear me out: The Caballero mispronunciation is not cute anymore, I never found it funny but the fact it’s still happening really bugs me. Please learn how to properly pronounce...Read full review »

Love this podcast! My wife and I just started listening to it about a month ago and we think it’s great! We go to Disney every year and always looking for new tips and tricks on how to do Disney! Keep up the great work guys! P.s. release the rope drop radio run club merch!

Really enjoyed listening to this show leading up to our Labor Day Disney trip - particularly the “low key” tips!

Love the show guys but you have to get the volume level up. Every episode is almost a whisper.
Cakuiju via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/24
I was drawn in by the title a few months ago, as we are avid Disney park goers that nearly always Rope Drop every chance we can get, and we are always looking for the best advice possible. Now, several months later, even though we’re not currently planning a trip, I look forward to that weekly...Read full review »

I have an hour-long commute, and this is one of my go-to podcasts. Doug & Derek are full of information and banter. I find myself laughing out loud in my car. I don’t get to Disney as often as I wish, and they help me cope in between trips. Thanks double-D’s.

Do you guys actually like Disney? I want to like this show so bad but the negativity is grating.
JR Bonez via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/20/24
This pod is great. Informative, honest and fun. When I went to Disney in April of 2024 with the kids for the first time I started to listen to all the Disney podcasts. Months later and I am still Listening to Derek and Doug weekly. PS. Being honest about Disney doesn’t mean Doug hates it
BradH0661 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/17/24
I wanted to give a review to you guys since I listen to your podcast in my way home at night from work. I have a 48 minute commute and learned so many tips and tricks for my next Disney vacation next year. I have been four times in my life and live in Upstate NY. Anyone that wants to learn about...Read full review »

Wow - wish I had this information during our last Disney trip 😭

I love to listen to this podcast every week. I love to clean while listening to Derek and Doug talk Disney. I thank you and my husband thanks you for a clean house. The only thing that would make it better if there were more episodes per week or the episodes were longer so my house could be even...Read full review »

I love this podcast! I have gotten so many tips from you and the guests you have. We are going this week and loved the top Epcot tips from you and Alyssa! Hope we run into her at the gift shop! Thank you for always keeping it fun and entertaining.

I stumbled upon this podcast about a year ago - just after my family’s first Disney trip. I have been many times and fell in love all over again after experiencing it with them for the first time. Doug and Derek are down to earth and fun to listen to. I really enjoy their listener question...Read full review »

Doug and Derek make my drive to work so much more fun! I love to listen about Disney and even though we go frequently I still learn more about Disney from them! My favorite episodes are when they discuss the TPS reports or updates about the parks and future!
Momma5379qr via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/24
I know alot about WDW and love WDW so much, but these guys add a little bit more. I always learn something new. They are fun to listen to and are always at the top of my listen list.
Brian in Richmond via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/24
These guys have so many great tips that I haven’t heard on other podcasts! They almost always bring something new to the table
KrissieB913 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/12/24
I’m not sure when my families next trip will be, but I know I’ll be ready after listening to your podcast. Thank you for not turning the podcast into a travel agent ad. I can handle the reference at the beginning and then it’s right to Disney world content. Just how it should be. Keep up the...Read full review »

I have been listening to your show for a couple of years and just love it! Derek and Doug cover Disney so well! You’ve inspired me to start my own Disney podcast this year with a friend. Thank you!
The Mouse Tales Show via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/12/24
An excellent Disney World travel resource. I like how articulate and concise these guys are. It’s not rambling and self-indulgent like some others. Thanks!
slibucha via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/05/24
I’ve listened to 115 episodes so far, hoping to learn some advanced Disney strategy (they are named rope drop radio after all), and the format is one friend interviewing a more informed friend. Doug, the more informed friend, complains about all things Disney as far as I can tell. He is creeped...Read full review »

New listeners to Rope Drop radio as we have an upcoming Disney World trip forthcoming. (Our 3rd trip as a family to date). Listened to just about every 2024 episode to date along with the 1st episode (when traveling to/from youth sporting events). Derek and Doug provide great insight on...Read full review »

The guys offer a great blend of tips, tricks, stories, experiences and topics. A worthwhile listen for any Disney-goer
wsbzrvd210 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/24
As someone who’s not usually super excited to listen to a couple of midwestern dads chat, it should probably mean something that this is one of my favorite podcasts. Derek and Doug are weirdly charismatic and their Disney World content always feels fresh and engaging, as well as informative....Read full review »

Doug and Derek, the dynamic Disney World duo, give all of the best tips and ask for so little in return. As I listen to their podcast, and take in all of the great tips and tricks that are passed on, I realize Derek and Doug are my first VIP tour guides through the Disney Parks. So much so...Read full review »

I’ve tried a bunch of Disney trip planning podcasts and these guys are #1. They’re the Flight of Passage or Slinky Dog Dash — the podcast you’d wake up early and grab a lightning lane for, if that were a thing. Thank goodness it’s not a thing - it’s easy to listen any time, with enjoyable banter...Read full review »

Since we’ve starting planning our large family WDW trip for this summer, I’ve been putting on Disney podcasts for tips whenever I’m out running errands.

I was planning my family’s first ever vacation to WDW and was in a panic about Genie+, LL’s, navigating all 4 parks and prioritizing attractions. I found Doug and Derek’s podcast, and I’m so glad I did. I had such a great time listening to the podcasts—laughing while learning. I just came back...Read full review »

After a crazy busy trip to WDW in February 2023, I knew it was time to do some Disney research and plan another trip. Enter Derek and Doug and Rope Drop radio! Thanks to these guys, I learned all the ropes (get it?!) about rope drop, Genie+, lightning lanes, and nap time! I was so confident that...Read full review »

It’s nice to hear a male/Dads prospective on Disney. As a Disney Mom whose spouse despises talking Disney, I appreciate you!
Tosh Bosh from VT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/07/24
Thanks for putting out such fun and informative episodes. We can’t wait for our trip this fall. I feel so much more prepared because of listening to this podcast. Thanks

Great Disney podcast! You have excellent tips and information while also keeping it real. Your enthusiasm for Disney World, dad joke humor, and the banter between the two of you make the podcast fun to listen to. Thanks guys!

My husband and I started listening to help plan our first WDW trip in March 2023. This podcast played a huge part in the success of our trip! Derek and Doug showed us the way of the rope drop and we have continued rope dropping after becoming Magic Key holders. Even though we do not have a WDW...Read full review »

My family loves Disneyland, and the podcast has been very helpful in planning trips and enhancing family fun!
Russell from Nebraska via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/24
The Rope Drop Radio podcast is my go-to when it comes to all things Disney. As a fellow Nebraskan, I share the same love for Disney as Derek and Doug. Their podcasts are informative, entertaining, and cover all you need to know. I appreciate all the work they put into producing a top-notch podcast!
Eric14Anderson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/24
