The Disney Personality Test

Welcome, Foolish Mortals, to another episode of the Grim Grinning Dads!The Dads are back, and this week we’re talking Disney news, new resorts, Imagineering decisions, Disney ride debates, and what might be the most revealing personality test we’ve ever put the Dads through.First up, Disney Cruise Line has announced new itineraries for Fall 2027 and Spring 2028. The Dads have some thoughts.Then we take our first real look at Lakeshore Lodge, Disney World’s newest resort coming in July 2027. With 967 rooms and theming inspired by Brother Bear, Bambi, Pocahontas, Encanto, and Fantasia, there’s a LOT to talk about. And naturally, the Dads make a deal: if we hit 1,000 YouTube subscribers, we’re staying at Lakeshore Lodge. So… you know what you have to do.We also head over to Piston Peak National Park and talk about an interesting Imagineering decision that could make a huge difference at Magic Kingdom. Disney reportedly shortened some of the structures at Piston Peak to help preserve sightlines throughout the park. We discuss why that matters, how the new land will fit alongside Big Thunder Mountain and Haunted Mansion, and the changes coming to the Haunted Mansion queue.And speaking of the Haunted Mansion, Caleb brings up an idea the Dads have discussed before: what if Disney turned the area near the Haunted Mansion into a Haunted Mansion-themed restaurant? If you missed that conversation, go back and check out our original discussion here:https://youtu.be/A_ZpqLoGOBA?si=E5gC-pIu6kfTEtCW&t=2818Then it’s time for the main event…Tyler puts Caleb and Charlie through a series of brutal Disney “this or that” questions. No wavering. No “it depends.” No choosing both. The Dads have to commit.Disney World or Disneyland? Magic Kingdom or EPCOT? Rope drop or sleep in? Park hopper or one park per day? And perhaps the most important question of all…Has Disney finally priced itself into a problem?After all the answers are in, Tyler assigns each Dad a Disney personality type — and somehow, they’re almost disturbingly accurate.Plus, we celebrate a pretty huge milestone…The Grim Grinning Dads are officially ONE YEAR old!It’s been an incredible first year of Disney debates, questionable opinions, ridiculous tangents, and a whole lot of laughs. And we’re just getting started.So grab your favorite Disney snack, settle in, and join the Dads for another episode of the Grim Grinning Dads.And remember: 1,000 YouTube subscribers = Lakeshore Lodge.Can we make it happen?⸻Follow the Grim Grinning Dads:https://www.tiktok.com/@grim.grinning.dadshttps://www.instagram.com/grimgrinningdadsSummon us anytime at [email protected] you’d like help planning your next Disney vacation, European adventure, cruise, all-inclusive resort, or just about anywhere else, the Dads are also travel advisors with Genie Travel Company.
