Welcome, foolish mortals, to Grim Grinning Dads, the show where three Disney-loving dads share travel tips, hot takes, and this week, some stories about cookies.

The dads welcome Steve Lewis, the owner and creator of Gideon’s Bakehouse, to talk about how one bakery became a must-visit stop at Disney Springs and why experience and storytelling matter just as much as what’s on the menu. Steve also introduces Six Ravens, a new concept coming to Disney Springs that expands the world of Gideon’s while staying rooted in creativity and immersion.

If you love Disney, themed experiences, and food with a story behind it, this episode is for you.

Welcome, foolish mortals. Planning your first Walt Disney World trip can feel like stepping into the stretching room: exciting, mysterious, and slightly alarming once you realize how much there is to do.

In this episode, the Grim Grinning Dads break down how to build the perfect first-time Disney World trip — the kind that’s realistic for real families, without burnout, chaos, or the dreaded mid-day meltdown.

They cover resort choices (value, moderate, deluxe), ideal trip length, why first-timers should skip park hopping, and how to approach dining reservations with a calm plan instead of panic. If you want a trip that leaves you smiling instead of staggering back to the bus stop, this one’s for you.
