I think the podcasts where Michael is in disagreement or searching for understanding with his guests are the best ones. I bet they’re more stressful but I enjoy them more.
Introduction
When Disneyworld opened in Florida in October 1971, it was full of classic attractions that took children and families on wonderful adventures. You could ride the iconic Jungle Cruise down the rivers of Africa, soar to Neverland on Peter Pan’s Flight, or get spooked exploring the depths of The Haunted Mansion. Alongside these rides, on the edge of Fantasyland, was a quaint but beloved attraction. Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, based on the 1949 Disney animated film The Wind in The Willows, took riders on a madcap journey as they help J. Thaddaeus Toad steal a motorcar and go on a crazed joyride before crashing into a train, dying and ending up with Toad in a cartoon version of Hell.
Yeah… it was strange, but the ride’s oddness and quirks are exactly what made it so beloved by the Disneyworld fandom. There really wasn’t anything else quite like at the park, and so Toad and company developed a great deal of fans as they continued to entertain the millions who rode the attraction throughout the decades.
Until…
The Ever-Evolving World of Theme Parks
Theme parks aren’t stagnant. They are always evolving. Often this evolution means a ride being completely rethemed or torn down and replaced with a newer one. This is pretty common at Disney, the company constantly shoving its most popular IPs onto attractions that previously had no IP tie-ins or tie-ins to more obscure properties. Disney purists have bemoaned the loss of the originals and questioned if this practice actually even draws more people into the parks. Disney has always used its parks to cross-promote films and vice versa, Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride itself has been a day one example of this. Nevertheless, changes to attractions understandably bring up strong emotions in those that have grown sentimental to them. This creates the paradoxical love-hate relation hardcore Disney fans have with the company. You know the ones, the people who don’t see it as just a casual holiday getaway, but as a place of history and culture that they fear is being erased by those greedy corporate overlords.
But the times are always changing, and soon that change would hit the abode of a certain manic amphibian…
Bear vs. Toad
On October 22, 1997, The Orlando Sentinel reported that Disney was considering replacing Toad with a Winnie-The-Pooh ride. It certainly makes sense on paper. Disney’s version of The Wind in The Willows is a great cartoon, but how many people have seen it or remember it? Compared to the
... keep reading on reddit ➡I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!

I get bored easily so I fill the void with various hobbies I jump back and forth from. These include boxing, fashion, photography, poetry, hiking, and playing guitar, just for a few. I have a wide range of topic interests, such as history, philosophy, and theology. I sadly have no talent for visual art but I appreciate it a great deal. Music is probably my greatest area of interest, and I listen to a wide range of genres. Some of my favorite artists are Joy Division, the Doors, Talking Heads, Cage the Elephant, and Steve Lacy.
If you message me, please include some details about you to start off as well as a picture. Please please please be a good conversationalist as well as I hate having to carry conversations on my own. My age range is 18 to 26, please don't message me if you're outside this.
Hope you have a great day and hope to hear from you soon.

Pilot on me!!
Nothing, he was gladiator.
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
