Welcome back to Geeks Corner! Fresh off the Fourth of July weekend, Mr. Daps and Caitie Bear are back in the studio to bust a major Disneyland history myth, share details on upcoming community events, and imagine what happens when a modern pop star meets the Muppets.
Episode Highlights
Here is what you can look forward to in this week’s episode:
- Disneyland Opening Day Myth Busted: The show kicks off with an incredible piece of theme park trivia: despite the popular legend that Disneyland’s opening day was a blistering 100-degree disaster, historical records confirm it was actually a comfortable 82 degrees! The hosts discuss how this was cooler than the recent holiday weekend and give a shout-out to Clocky from the Scent from Disneyland podcast for uncovering the truth
- CHOC Walk 2026 Countdown: We are officially under a month away from the 2026 CHOC Walk in the Park on August 2nd! The duo reminds the community about the importance of supporting the Children’s Hospital of Orange County. They share how you can join the Daps Magic fundraising team to walk through the parks early in the morning—or support as a “sleeping bear” from the comfort of your own bed.
- Caption of the Week: A new interactive challenge is live at the bottom of the website’s homepage. Head over to drop your funniest caption and vote on your favorites to help choose the weekly community winner.
- Fourth of July Park Recap & Global Uploads: Mr. Daps details his experience covering the patriotic holiday festivities and updates viewers on a massive wave of global theme park content heading to the channel. With over a hundred upcoming videos from Disneyland Paris, Disney Adventure World, and other global destinations being sprinkled in, there is plenty of magic on the horizon leading into D23.
- Muppet Duet Brainstorm: The show takes a hilariously creative turn as the hosts imagine modern pop hits reimagined by Jim Henson’s finest. Caitie Bear pitches an incredible concept for a Muppet crossover featuring pop star Sabrina Carpenter singing a duet of “Taste” or “Coincidence” alongside Janice and the Electric Mayhem!
