February 24, 2023: Coming in under the wire … again 😢 … this is what happens when you’re thrown off your routine (back injury) and your doggie doesn’t do her job waking you up in the morning (bad Piper Onion 🐶).

February 23, 2023: My back is feeling a lot better today. I’m able to jump up from my chair and the couch without any pain.

February 20, 2023: My back is feeling better each day, and I’m so grateful for my wife helping me through my recovery. She’s even taking off from work tomorrow just so she can help me as I recuperate. In sickness and in health, right? | We’ve been a little Frozen heavy on characters lately, haven’t we? I’m just not quite sure if today’s character smells better than a reindeer, though. | on this day, the Disney imagine years get their official branding. | Today’s quote is from the great, but still not as great as Jack Kirby, Stan Lee! Yes, this is the hill I’m willing to die on!!!

February 19, 2023: I am still having some bad back issues, and I’ve already went ahead and called out of work for this week. I absolutely hate feeling like this, and not really feeling like doing much of anything. So here’s a link to a video about Disney’s management ( https://youtu.be/P6ugNKm9TGY ). Sorry, but I don’t even feel like trying to write reviews about today’s character, history, or quote.

February 18, 2023: after yesterday‘s post, I was getting ready for wound up with a minor back injury. I went to get it checked out, and looks like I’m gonna be laid up and helpless for about a week. I absolutely hate being helpless and unable to function on my own. She’ll forgive me today for not being really grateful for anything, because I actually hate this feeling, and I hate the way this medication makes me feel. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll be in a better mood, so just have to accept this for now.

What About Smee? Smee! Smee! Smee. Smee. What about Smee? Smee's me.

February 16, 2023: I just came off of a 13 hour overnight shift, so please excuse me if my entry is short and thin today. I’m used to 13 hour shifts, but changing to an overnight throws off my circadian rhythm. So here’s a video to make up for it ( https://youtu.be/HLzq3NDCdvU ) … it’s a run through of Space Mountain with the lights on. | Todays character is the hero we all should admire, if only for his good nature.

February 15, 2023: For those who don’t know I have recently become a kilt person. That is over the last several months I have started wearing a kilt more often. Right now it’s only for special events and when I go axe throwing, but I’m slowly building up a collection and hoping to wear a kilt more regularly as the weather gets warmer. I was telling a friend of mine about a particular tartan that I want to get, and I’ll post a link to the video here ( https://youtu.be/X7HOUDpINcs ). While I’ve been trying to learn more about kilts and the meanings behind different tartans, I came across this video and have decided that I want to make the CONTINUE tartan one of my next purchases. However, I have had no luck in finding it at any online store. This past week, however, I was talking to a buddy of mine and shared this information with him. Later that night he sent me a link to a Facebook group specifically for this tartan, and I immediately found that they were putting together a headcount to place a large order! Today I am grateful for how this timed out, for the people who are organizing this purchase, for my friend who pointed me this way, and for those who believe in bringing mental health awareness to the forefront of conversations. I’ll try to keep you updated as I go, just know that I am super excited about this!!! | Today’s character is the teacher of us all, as he taught us the way and set an excellent example for how to carry and conduct yourself (at least from a certain point of view). | Behind every great man, there is a great woman without whom he would be lost. So today we celebrate the birthday of Walt’s wife 🎂 | Today’s quote tells us that Walt valued education!

February 13, 2023: To start out I wanna follow up with yesterday’s marathon tournament. I had an amazing time, and have absolutely no regrets from participating in it. We spent about 11 hours going through two months worth of league play and a tournament. Not only did I compete, but I also got to serve as one of the official judges. I’m tired and sore today, and my feet are absolutely killing me. But I had a wonderful time and would definitely do it again (although not for many many months). I’m very grateful that my wife got me into the sport of axe throwing, and that I was able to find this wonderful axe family these past eight months. | I realize all too late that you can’t talk about one of the Frozen sisters without talking about the other. | On this day we got a sequel we didn’t need a live action remake we didn’t ask for. But it’s just easier to remake something instead of coming up with a new idea. | Walt tells us his philosophy on finances

February 12, 2023: Today I’m participating in an axe throwing marathon league/tournament. We are spending about 10 hours covering equivalent of two months worth of standard league games. Today I am very grateful for the group that I found here, a little “axe family” if you will, I who are just super supportive and encouraging no matter what your skill level is. I’m nowhere near one of the better throwers, but everyone continues to support me and encourage me to do my best . I’ll let y’all know tomorrow how today turned out … but so far we are halfway through, so just know that I’m doing better than I ever have before! | Today’s character has the super power pretty much every teenager would want to have | On this day, Sleeping Beauty’s castle disappeared. (don’t worry, they brought it back). | A Prominent Pixar Producer tells us what is key when assembling a team for a film.

February 11, 2023: Today I am grateful for the “Space Force” crew I work with. My specific shift as a paramedic has me rotating every other Friday to a place I refer to as “Space Force”, with my regular partner and another crew. These guys have been trying to help me take my personal fitness more seriously, and yesterday we succeeded in my doing 120 push-ups!!! Not all at once, heavens no … over the course of the day. We start out with a set number to start the day, then another set after each call. I’m so grateful they not only encouraged me to do this, but also showed me how easy it was to do. My arms and shoulders hurt like the Dickens today, but I’m working towards a healthier life now 😁 | I don’t care what this characters real name is, I’m always gonna call her the evil stepmother 👿 | Today we celebrate the birthday of a legendary sculptor who crafted presidents as well as the man AND the mouse!!! | Walt tells us his philosophy on money in todays quote.

February 10, 2023: So after my late post last night I was scrolling through my analytics and found that Piper Onion and I have a new audience in France!!! 🇫🇷 ❤️ This brings our total global audience to NINE COUNTRIES 🤩🥰 And nine is my lucky number 9️⃣🍀 Guess it’s a sign that it’s time to take this podcast up a notch, and explore expansion. | Todays character is voiced by Billy Joel, which means he actually had multiple Disney credits (not just the music to Tarzan) | Today we celebrate the birthday of the best voice option for the second best mouse in the Disney universe!!! | Today, legendary animator Ward Kimble gives us some dang good advice 🥰

February 8, 2023: Today I am grateful for patience. Recently there was some negative press about our agency, and of course we were very passionate about how our name is being dragged through the mud just for the sake of sensationalism and clickbait news headlines. We could have reacted immediately, but that would have been playing to the lowest common denominator (like that reporter does). Our leadership team exercised patience and that turned out to be the best overall approach. Too often we jump and react without thinking how our actions will ripple down the line. We owe it to our future selves to help set them up for success. | I’m so happy Glenn Close accepted to play this character. An actor of her stature playing a supporting character really brings a great level of legitimacy to what some would call “roller coaster” movies. | Today we celebrate the birthday of the greatest film composer of all time!!! His scores are iconic and genius even without the films. | Todays quote is from Jack Kirby, the REAL GENIUS BEHIND MARVEL COMICS!!! There, I said it! Sorry not sorry, Stan Lee

January 7, 2023: today’s character comes from a landmark film, which is probably going to be one of the only times you will find animated characters from different studios, starring in a single film. We just won’t get cross overs like this anymore. And I absolutely love this movie; I am thinking of using it as the first subject in my upcoming “Disney Deep Dive” series. | On this day a little wooden puppet hit theaters, entering our hearts, and becoming a real boy. Also, one of the few voices for Mickey Mouse is born on this day. | Today’s quote gives us insight as to where Walt got the idea for Epcot

February 6, 2023: I’m having a bit of a rough morning. Can’t seem to do anything right this morning as I get ready to leave for work. So instead of drawing it out, I’m just gonna post this here video about Disney and a potential nuclear reactor ( https://youtu.be/OlJlBIMQy7k ) … it’s from one of my favorite Youtubers, and the man who has the job I wish I had. | Today’s character is a Boy Scout, or at least that’s how he’s portrayed in the movies. If you believe the fan theories, then he’s actually an angel trying to earn his wings by escorting an old man through the afterlife. | Today the man who created the man himself, celebrates a birthday. It’s a reminder to call your father and tell him that you love him. | today’s quote is from Ed Catmull, and he tells us about the beauty of randomness.

February 5, 2023: Late last night an old buddy of mine sent me a message that he was flying into town for a quick one day trip, and asked me if I wanted to go see the play Les Miserables. So of course, as a theater person, I said yes! Today I am very grateful that my old theater buddy is coming into town and already has tickets for this amazing play! | I have a weird feeling that today’s character was already highlighted, but I also keep terrible records, and cannot be sure. | On this day, we celebrate the premiere of one of my favorite Disney films growing up, as well as the birthday of the voice of one of the most evil villains in the Disney canon. | Walt will never stop believing that there is a great big beautiful tomorrow! #Optimism
