Idiot's Guide to Imagineering
Welcome to Idiot’s Guide to Imagineering, the podcast that brings Disney fans and dreamers into the art and magic of Disney Imagineering! Hosted by passionate former Disney Cast Members, we explore the past, present, and future of the parks—reimagining what Disney could be with expertise and creativity.
Each episode, we approach Disney-inspired concepts with an Imagineer’s mindset, from designing attractions and restaurants to rethinking entire lands. Balancing trends, technical challenges, and that essential Disney touch, we map out ideas that could fit right into the parks, giving you an insider view into how these dreams might come to life.
And, don't miss our Magic Makers series, where we sit down with the true visionaries behind the magic at Disney Parks & Resorts around the world. Their stories inspire us to keep dreaming and believing.
While we’re here to spark imagination, we’re also here to entertain! With humor, fascinating facts, special guests, games, and interactive fun, each episode has something fresh to discover. So, step into a world where imagination knows no limits—Idiot’s Guide to Imagineering is your ticket to the magic!

S2 E14: Building Port Disney (Part 2): The Theme Park
We're back with Part 2 of our Building Port Disney Mini-Series! Today, we're diving into the original plans for DisneySea, which was actually intended for California in the 1990s. Discover all the fascinating details about this first-of-its-kind park that never came to be.
And of course, we put on our creative idiot caps to reimagine how this park could look if it were built today. From Coney Island to talking sausages, haunted ghost ships to Lizzie McGuire, we've got a lot to cover. So, sit back, relax, and hit play!
