Hidee Hidee Ho There and welcome to the DisNerd Podcast. I’m Hans Krueger and I’ll be your host for all the shenanigans that will unfold. No, I’m not a prince, nor do I reside in the Southern Isles. I’m just a self-proclaimed DisNerd. I know I’m not the first, nor will I be the last. And I am in NO WAY the authority on any Disney matter. I am just a fan looking to connect with other DisNerds and create a community to share our passion for the Mouse.

Mike and Emily provide international perspectives on Disney fandom - with the guy a British would-be voice actor, and the girl a Portland, Oregon-based art nerd, who knows what conclusions these two will come to on the whole variety of subjects planned for the podcast - only time, and bandwidth, will tell.

Yes, indeed, happy UK LGBT History Month! In this first episode of February '15, Mike and Emily delve into what they could find of LGBT people and happenings in Disney history.
