“Although I appreciate much of the content, I cannot stand the intro (helllloooooo). It hurts my ears to listen to, and I often skip forward to the content, admittedly annoyed that I had to do so just to avoid the terrible intro. It’s a big turn-off.”

“I came here after hearing Carlye on Podcast: The Ride and am sooo glad I did.
Very Amusing is SUCH a fun and upbeat podcast as Carlye features actual journalistic insight (and therefore a peek behind the scenes), personal anecdotes, and her real thoughts/experiences in theme parks and the like....”Read full review »

“I’d listen more, but I struggle with the energy (very high, kind of manic?). I wish there were an option to listen to a softened version, one without the exaggerated emphasis on certain words (e.g., helllloooooooo). As noted above, I do appreciate the honest reviews and tips.”

“I adore this podcast! For the proud theme park nerds and detail-obsessed Disney experiences fan, this is a fine ambrosia of a pod. Carlye is a brilliant journalist, sneaky snack sleuth and has all the go-to tips for every park goer’s perfect itinerary. 5-churro podcast!”

“Very Amusing is hands down the best podcast when it comes to Disney theme parks, Universal, and just general fun! Do I sometimes refer to Carlye as my friend when discussing with others what I have learned from her? Yes. Have I ever met Carlye in real life? No. Does she still make me feel like...”Read full review »

“Would like separate parent/baby-related episodes and baby-free ones so listeners can decide which episodes to listen to regarding those specific topics. Some care very much about parent issues and some do not.”

“Carlye is a third rate influencer in a crowded sea of influencers pretending to be a “journalist”. Her info is often late or simply incorrect. Completely out of touch with the average Disney park goer.”

“Carlye is so amazing! As a travel agent, Carlye helps keep me updated on all the newest latest greatest stuff and I feel as if I’m walking through these parks with her! I love that she pops on a voicemail from her mom at the end ❤️ & We all love you John Stamos! IYKYK”

“If you like being shouted out by a privileged rich person cosplaying as a journalist for a hobby, this is the podcast for you. If you want Disney info form anyone who goes to parks more than on media days, seek your information elsewhere. It’ll be more current and more honest.”

“As a former public radio reporter and producer, I find most podcasts banal.
