EPisode 49: Park Etiquette: The Unspoken Rules of Disney & Universal

Things get real in this hilariously honest episode of Going Beyond the Castle as Fred, Lori, and Ashley dive headfirst into one of the most relatable (and occasionally rage-inducing) topics for theme park lovers everywhere: theme park etiquette. From stroller chaos and mid-walkway traffic jams to line-cutting, flash photography, and those who “manspread” on Pirates of the Caribbean, no topic is off-limits.

The trio also tackles breaking Disney news — including updates on the Disney Destiny cruise ship reveal and Zootopia: Better Zoo Gather — before jumping into a fiery roundtable about the do’s and don’ts of navigating Disney and Universal parks with courtesy (and sanity) intact.

Between Lori’s “hashtag menopause” moments, Ashley’s confession about coffee vs. sleep, and Fred’s ongoing campaign to slash stroller tires (metaphorically… mostly), this episode is packed with laughs, real talk, and park wisdom that every guest needs to hear.

Highlights include:

  • The unspoken rules of Disney and Universal

  • Tips for stroller parking and walkway awareness

  • Parade and fireworks viewing etiquette

  • Why “don’t be a jerk” might be the best vacation motto

  • The ongoing mysteries of “manspreading” explained
