Bad Guest Behavior at Disney Parks - The WDW News Today Podcast: Episode 88

·1 hr 12 min·4 clips
At Disneyland Paris, guests climbed onto a popcorn cart roof to watch fireworks.
Eric Morton begins the episode feeling under the weather and talks through the practical problem of flying while congested. Tom Corliss answers with the usual dry back-and-forth, and the opening moves through travel talk before drifting into Houston traffic. The hosts then turn to guest behavior at Disney parks. They treat it as the everyday weirdness that shows up at crowded attractions rather than arrests or dramatic incidents. One example is the group that stops right in front of an attraction entrance to decide whether to ride, and they extend the complaint to stores and restaurants too. The point is simple: step aside and do not block the flow. The conversation also notes that different parks can produce different kinds of chaos, with Disneyland Paris singled out as a place where guests can be especially surprising. The tone stays irreverent, but the criticism stays tied to real crowd behavior and the friction of moving through busy parks. The episode keeps its loose structure. A thread about bad behavior gives way to other memories and side remarks. Near the end, the conversation turns to hiring and camera work, including a memory about Katie saying she was 17 on her application and being hired for a part-time night job. The close also drifts into race memories, including running through Epcot in the evening and around the Christmas tree. It ends with the familiar sign-off and the show’s regular cadence.
