Free Daily Podcast Summary
by TouringPlans- Chrissy Harrison, Amy Schinner
Welcome to Behind the Plans, where Chrissy, Amy—and occasionally Len—talk all things Disney Parks and Universal Orlando (yes, that includes Epic).We’re sharing the stories, opinions, behind-the-scenes moments, and plenty of laughs that don’t always make it into our articles, videos, and social posts.TouringPlans is known for data, but gathering that data means we spend a lot of time in the parks—and we have a lot to say along the way. We thought our Liners, longtime followers, and anyone who loves the parks might enjoy being a fly on the wall while we debate, laugh, and occasionally disagree about what we’re seeing.
