Deadhead: How not to Mermaid, Mother plucking Tiki Room, & special guest Shawna Marie Tice

Imagine a couple of old friends who once steered boats through the world’s most famous jungle cruise, now sitting down with microphones. That’s the heart of The Jungle. Hosted by Trevor Kelly, a crooner and senior art director, and David "Dr. Skipper" Marley, an author and Disney historian, this podcast naturally flows from its roots in theme parks and Disney lore into much wider, often hilarious, territory. True to their skipper training, a conversation that starts with a detail about a classic attraction might suddenly veer into a deep dive on a forgotten film, a peculiar travel destination, or the oddities of modern culture. You’re not getting a dry historical lecture or a rigid fan podcast; you’re getting the lively, meandering, and personal banter of two insiders who have a genuine passion for the stories behind the magic. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair at a corner table where nostalgia, expert knowledge, and comedic observation collide. The result is a consistently surprising listen that explores how entertainment, place, and memory all twist together. Tune in to The Jungle for those uncharted waters, where every topic, from the arts to society, is approached with a light touch and a wealth of behind-the-scenes perspective.
