Welcome to Episode 4 in Season 2 of The People It Takes! In this weeks episode, our host, Lauryn, DROPS in at her alma mater, Arizona State University, with former cast member, Alyvia. Alyvia was apart of the Disney College Program in Orlando Florida and took on, arguably, one of the most coveted roles of all time. As a Bellhop at the Hollywood Tower of Terror, Alyvia fills us in on what it's really like being stuck in time in the Twilight Zone. Don't be fooled by her sweet appearance her spooky side almost always took over when entering the Twilight Zone. It is clear after listening to this conversation that Alyvia never took a day for granted when checking into work each day. Lauryn and Alyvia also discuss an Arizona State University secret? You would never guess how Disney played a role in a major part of this school. There is no question that Alyvia was one of the cast members guests encounter and never forget, but was it magic? Or was it the eerie Twilight Zone effect? Find out on tonights episode of The People It Takes. We hope you enjoy this episode and we are SO happy you're here. ALL opinions and experiences are our own, I, as well as my guests, do not speak on behalf of The Walt Disney Company in any way.

In this weeks episode, our host, Lauryn, sits down at Disneyland Resort’s newest Resort Hotel, Pixar Place, with former cast member, current content creator, Erick, also known as “BeastlyAppetite” or “MrBeastly”. Before becoming a familiar face on social media, Erick was a cast member at DLR with a wide range of jobs within his role. Ericks role allowed him to make magic on stage, as well as behind the scenes. Erick went from working in the parks, to being hosted by the company to attend special events at the parks and creates a different kind of magic for Disney lovers all over through his content creation. Erick is a great example of who Walt would have wanted as one of The People It Takes to make his dreams a reality. We hope you enjoy this episode and we are SO happy you're here.

Welcome to Season 2 Episode 2 of The People It Takes! In this week’s episode, our host, Lauryn, sits down at the Grand Legacy Hotel with ESPN cast member and content creator, Kelly, also known as @ kellyskingdomm. Between Sports and Disney, it’s a tough call on which Kelly loves more. Who would have guessed that she would be able to score a job that allowed her to be apart of both. Although Kelly does not work within the parks, You will likely run into her at Disneyland as she creates magic through content creation on her own time. Kelly is the perfect example that if you dream it, you can do it, and she thrives in this as one of The People It Takes. We hope you enjoy this episode and we are SO happy you're here.

Welcome to Season 2 Episode 1 of The People It Takes! In this weeks episode, our host, Lauryn, finds herself back on the west coast (best coast) at The Disneyland Hotel with former cast member, current content creator, Tim (@timmilles). Before flooding social media with hilarious Disney cat videos and and all-to-relatable cast member content , Tim was a participant in the Disney College Program, but not the average College Program, the DisneyLAND college program, which is no longer offered. Not to mention, Tim had a pretty neat spot with experiencing working the opening weekend of a now, beloved, area of California Adventure. Though he is no longer with Disney, Tim still creates magic and brings countless laughs to park lovers as a content creator. Tim not only made magic for guests, but also took care of his fellow cast, which is exactly what made him so great at being one of The People It Takes. We hope you enjoy this episode and we are SO happy you're here. ALL opinions and experiences are our own, l, as well as my guests, do not speak on behalf of The Walt Disney Company in any way.

Welcome to Episode 10- the season finale of The People It Takes! In this weeks episode, our host, Lauryn, sits down at Wilderness Lodge with former cast member, content creator (laurensfloatinglights), and friend, Lauren. Before becoming a familiar face on social media, Lauren traveled across the pond from England to become a Disney World Cast member through the cultural representative program (CRP) at EPCOT. Lauren participated in this not once, but twice, as once was not enough. Lauren was stationed in the England pavilion at EPCOT through her programs, a home away from home to be sure, but did the Disney magic get squandered in a role like this? You’ll be surprised. Though she is no longer with Disney, Lauren still creates magic for theme park lovers and dreamers as a content creator. Lauren is the perfect example of who Walt wanted making magic in his parks as one of The People It Takes. We hope you enjoy this episode and we are SO happy you're here. ALL opinions and experiences are our own, I, as well as my guests, do not speak on behalf of The Walt Disney Company in any way.

Welcome to Episode 9 of The People It Takes! In this weeks episode, our host, Lauryn, sits down at Wilderness Lodge with Friend, Cast Member, Crew Member; Alexis. Alexis has made magic in many different roles from one of the most chaotic quick service restaurants in the parks, to one of the slowest attractions of Disney. But her all time favorite took place in a galaxy far-far-away. From childhood dreaming to really walking the halls of the Halcion, Alexis brought her love and passion for her unique and beloved former role everyday and continues to shine just as bright in her new role as one of The People It Takes. We hope you enjoy this episode and we are SO happy you’re here.  ALL opinions and experiences are our own, I, as well as my guests, do not speak on behalf of The Walt Disney Company in any way.

Welcome to Episode 7 of The People It Takes! In this weeks episode, our host, Lauryn, sits down at Coronado Springs Resort with former cast member, current theme park reviewer and content creator, Josh, also known as JVTV. Before becoming a familiar face on social media, Josh was a participant in the Disney College Program. Not only was Josh one of the last people in the parks before Covid, but also had his program cut short because of it. With arguably the most fun role there is, Josh interacted with nearly every visitor at the magic kingdom from day to day.

I have no doubt, even knowing him only a short time, that Josh brought joy to many, many guests as one of The People It Takes. We hope you enjoy this episode and we are SO happy you're here.
