The Life of a Fangirl Podcast

Talking all things Marvel Phase 4 with friend and fellow fanboy David Dollar from the Magic on a Dollar podcast. Why? Because the Black Widow trailer came out and it's got us all kinds of excited for our favorite fandom to return.  Black Widow Movie Quotes From the Trailer How To Watch the Marvel Movies In Order Kate Bishop In Hawkeye Find David on his podcasts or on Instagram @magiconadollar 

Happy Monday everyone! We gotta discuss what happened at the box office this weekend. Hey, anything to make Monday a little better! Topics this week (including parent movie reviews- you gotta know if these are safe for kids, right?! Right!) Klaus Ford V Ferrari The Irishman And... I've got an unpopular opinion on the now Golden Globe-nominated The Irishman. Just because it gets awards, doesn't mea...

Star Wars. Walt Disney World. Enough said.  Okay, so not *enough* because we've got to fangirl a bit about the newest attraction opening at Disney's Hollywood Studios, The Rise of the Resistance.  On the show today is Amiyrah Martin , co-host of The Star Wars Moms on Facebook and one of the biggest Star Wars fangirls I know.  She's been on the ride- multiple times- and encountered her boyfriend Ky...

There is nothing like that WOW factor of walking onto Main Street, USA and seeing Cinderella Castle in all her glory. That, my friends, is Disney magic- and something to celebrate. Welcome to the "We're Disney People: What Do You Mean There Are Other Vacations?" mini-series where we fangirl the Walt Disney World Resort theme parks. We're talking about each park in a separate podcast episode, so ma...

This week we're fangirling HARD when it comes to the Disney Parks. Walt Disney World Resort has 4 theme parks, each with a different point of view and vibe- which means we love them for very different reasons. And a side rant about the people who judge childless people from loving Disney. Judge all you want- cause you're wrong- and no one's sharing pixie dust with an attitude like that. So there....

All fangirls have a place they love the most and we're no different around here. Disney is pretty much it. And thankfully I'm not alone in my Disney Parks love. Lisa and Theresa join in the Disney World fangirling to talk about their favorite park: Epcot. Lisa calls it home, Theresa says it's all about community. Patty maybe just comes for the margaritas? Look... la Cava. Enough said. Take a walk...

This week we're fangirling Disney Parks and we're starting over in Walt Disney World. Don't worry, Disneyland, you're coming soon!  Animal Kingdom: the last park opened, the last park to fangirl in this Disney series. It's not my favorite, but it does have a couple of amazing things in its favor including Everest, Everest and... well, Everest. If you thought I was going to say Pandora, well, you m...

Happy Monday everyone! Thanksgiving is almost here- and that means all the holiday movies are primed and ready. Topics this week (including parent movie reviews- you gotta know if these are safe for kids, right?! Right!) Knives Out I gotta say it: I loved this movie and just about everything about it. But is it safe for kids? I have thoughts on that, parents. You can always tell when I really love...

We're all in this together... Look, I may not have been the target audience for High School Musical when it came out, but once a Wildcat always a Wildcat. This is a top 5 franchise for me and I will never turn down a chance to sing and dance with Troy and Gabriella. My guest today is Shannon Entin who you can find podcasting on Stinger TV and Movie Podcast. She writes on The TV Traveler and Stinge...

Tania and I are great friends, but we don't agree on everything. I like to think that's what keeps our friendship spark magical. Errr, or something like that.  But what we do agree on without hesitation is that Kristen Bell deserves to be in The Good Place. She's our fangirl topic of the week since we just got back from the Frozen 2 Press Junket. Tania's Frozen 2 Kid-Friendly Review Patty's Click...

*This was supposed to publish last week, but with some travel, it never happened! So here's a bonus Podcast Episode this week- which works since it's about Lady and the Tramp (and you can watch this on Disney+ starting in a few hours!) This one's kinda a mish-mash of subjects, but they tie in together. Take a listen and you'll see why- it makes sense, I promise.  As my guest today, I have Andria,...

Happy Movie Monday, y'all! This one is a little different- so make sure to read the show notes for all the details. I just got back from LA where I was an attendee of #thegeeklyretreat (check the hashtag on Twitter if you want to see all the deets!) As part of the retreat, we saw a lot of movies. A LOT. My brain's a little on overload, tbh.  I can only review Playing With Fire for you at this time...

*Interrupting Lady and the Tramp coverage for Stranger Things Day. Because it's November 6 and that's the day Will Byers went missing. Dun dun dunnnnn....!  Relive a little 80s nostalgia with us today   Originally published July 3, 2019 Is it wise to bring your husband on the show? If your husband is mine, who also happens to be as nerdy about the same fandoms as me, then YES. Plus he just really...

Everybody's Special or No One Is Last year I had the incredible experience of visiting Savannah, Georgia and the set of Lady and the Tramp. We met the dogs (oh yes we did!) and the actors, director, producers and the delicious craft services table. Look, writers gotta eat too. And that was some fantastic lunch, I'm just sayin'!  Lady and the Tramp Set Visit Lady and the Tramp Review One of the hig...

More Disney+ show reviews can be found on Now Streaming Disney Plus Podcast . Come check us out!  Lady and the Tramp Set Visit My guest is Tania from LolaLambchops.com and we are FINALLY able to share about our experience visiting the Lady and the Tramp set in...

Last fall I spent some time on the set of Lady and the Tramp in Savannah. We've been under embargo for a year- but finally- all the goodness from this experience can be shared! During the visit, we interviewed Oscar-winner and production designer John Myhre in Lulu's nursery. He shares a host of behind the scenes nuggets about the creation of this special room where one of the pivotal scenes takes...

It's been a week of fangirling runDisney - but that's because this is the kick-off of the "runDisney race season." Or as my kids like to call it, "Mom leaves us to play with her friends at Disney season." Look- it's work, I swear. I just happen to have a really cool job that requires a few trips a year to runDisney! And if you want to runDisney, let me know. I'm a travel agent that specializes in...

Thanks for joining the No-Guilt Fangirls Podcast Monday Movie Minute. Every week we talk about the movies that came out or what we watched on our couch.  This week on the Monday Movie Minute, we have a little of both. And they were all sequels or spinoffs, which was a...

Big ol' Epcot nerd and IllumiNations stan Theresa is back- and we have her first reaction to the new Epcot show. Immediate first reaction- we went from the Japan Pavilion to the Podcast booth to fangirl this one. If you have feelings about the old show, the new one, or just want to try to understand why people do: this is the Disney World Fangirling show for you! Find Theresa @in.sight.full.life o...

Monday Movie Minute: Joker We gotta talk about Joker, kids (including parent movie review- you gotta know if this one is safe for kids & teens, right?! Right!) This one is simple. Look, I saw 10-year-olds in the theater and thought... what the heck are these parents thinking?! I had my judgey pants ON. But then I realized, they are probably thinking DCU/MCU type movie. Y'all: Joker is NOT DCU/MCU...

One thing I can talk about forever and ever and ever is the topic of runDisney.  What is runDisney? Just what it sounds like: running races at the Disney Parks. Currently, there are races at Walt Disney World as well as Disneyland Paris and Disneyland Hong Kong. Distances include kid's races, 5Ks, and go all the way up to the full Marathon. Today we're talking about runDisney Paris and my guest, S...

Just- a lot of stuff happened today. And I had some free time. And that's what the Daily(ish) is all about! Coming to you live from the Plaid St. Blog Conference (hola!) is the news that's making this fangirl happy today. Sony and Marvel are besties again. And we get Spider-Man back. Kevin Feige is producing a Star Wars movie. And I got someone he NEEDS to cast! Disney+ streaming service: wanna kn...
