More than Disney

While Inside the Magic began covering primarily Disney, over the past 15 years, we have continued to grow and expand, frequently reaching out to feature many other theme parks, and independent attractions. Then our attention further grew to bring in the fun and excitement of the cinema, television, and gaming worlds.

History of Inside the Magic

The weekly Inside the Magic podcast was the second Disney-themed show to hit the Internet. For years there existed hundreds of news and rumor sites related to Disney and theme parks, but the birth of podcasting offered a new opportunity to reach interested fans in a new, more directly connected way.

Our first podcast episode was released on April 13, 2005. For more than 10 years, a new episode of the Inside the Magic podcast was released every week. The show started with a couple of hundred weekly listeners and became the starting point for the growth of Inside the Magic, which has since expanded far beyond a podcast to become a popular website, social media following, and YouTube channel.
