842 · Disney Adults: Fandom, Identity, and the Magic of Never Growing Up

What does it really mean to be a Disney Adult?

I sit down with AJ Wolfe - founder of Disney Food Blog and author of the new book Disney Adults - to explore one of Disney fandom’s most passionate and misunderstood communities. Together, we unpack:

Why Disney Adults face stereotypes, criticism, and double standards
How Disney shapes identity, belonging, and even adulthood itself
The joys and challenges inside the Disney Adult community
Disney’s role in cultivating lifelong fans and what the future holds
AJ’s personal journey, surprising research, and unforgettable stories

Whether you proudly call yourself a Disney Adult or just wonder why so many grown-ups are drawn to Disney, this episode will give you new insight into fandom, culture, and the magic of never growing up.
