Indiana Jones, Muppets, & Soarin': Disney Is Bringing Back the Vibes | MOW #629

Author: Magic Our Way - Disney fan podcast May 20, 2026 Duration: 1:03:49

Disney dropped a surprising amount of news this week, and somehow all of it points toward something Disney fans have been missing for a long time: personality.

On this episode, we break down the new "Project Fedora" permits at Disney's Hollywood Studios and discuss what Disney may actually be planning for the future of Indy inside the parks. Is Disney quietly turning Indiana Jones into one of its next major theme park franchises?

We also dive into the massive new reveals for Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets including:

  • first-look attraction photos,
  • the new Scooter Audio-Animatronics figure,
  • Electric Mayhem concert vibes,
  • merchandise,
  • and Swedish Chef food chaos

Plus, previews of the new Soarin' Over America footage have been posted and we give our reactions to Disney bringing back "nostalgic" experience.

Disney may finally be bringing back the vibes.
