Prof. Fun | Nathan Hartman

SOMETHING NEW! I’m going to be talking theme parks and all things fun over at a new set of social channels. Still doing Fun Fun Fun podcast but this just gives me a place to pontificate. Join won’t you? linktr.ee/proffun_hq

……………..what?

“Mupped Babies”

RIP Dallas.

I asked a poll worker today, when I voted, how the first day of early voting was going. They usually see about 300-500 max on the first day. This time around, they were sure they'd top 1000.

Holy shit. I just reached the point in Chapek’s book where he talks about churning out AirBud sequels as if he’s goddamn Louie B. Mayer.

A chip on his shoulder as big as the Matterhorn for (checks notes) Return of MF Jafar.

Chapek’s book is just his constant desire to make his white bread with a glass of milk ass look like an innovator but every decision is just, “What if we’re greedy?”

Joe was kind enough to sign my Animal Kingdom Tree of Life leaf, which I assured him I found on a pathway underneath it after a rainstorm and not by more nefarious means. It brought him a chuckle.

An excellent chat from Joe Rohde and Bethanee Bemis!

Geez Louise I thought Chapek’s book would be bad but it’s the most by the numbers kind of writing filled with Hallmark card platitudes like, “I learned that if you keep your head down and put one leg in front of the other, eventually you will get to the finish line.” Woof

TIME UNIT UPDATE: ONE ZACHARIA IS 0.636 SCARAMUCCIS

SHOOOOOK

Hexed looks ugly and awful.

Sam’s mugs just morphing into upscale Geeki Tiki.

Isn’t weird how Disney Worldbuilders doc came out and none of us could give the least bit of a shit about it? Zero. Zeeeero fan discussion.

Chapek is such a messy boring bitch.

Subtle this ain’t. Smart it ain’t either. ⭐️⭐️/5

This is SO GOOD. A great discussion about fandom and Disney's recent endeavors to sell that directly back to fans. For those who don't need a recap of D23 2026, start at 41:00.

“Behind the Castle Walls” by Bob Chapek: Sparknotes

Works for me. It is brutal.

“There I was, five clicks out of Khe Sanh. Deep in the shit. Cozier than all hell.”

I'm up to my old album-making ways. Mario Kart World has tons of tracks for when you're free-roaming that actually end instead of fading due to looping. A rarity in game music I had to play with.

Hell of a double feature day.

Maybe my favorite Scorsese.

This generation of students are so weird because they hate meeting with you and having a face-to-face, but they will also default to thinking that’s what they need to do when an email would suffice. They’re like…real busted.

Frankly, it never was that good.

DISNEY WAR PART TWO LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOO

Some "patriots" found my anti-Buc-ee's video. I'm rather proud of this reply.

These jerks in the front row would not shut up! @rifftrax.com I want a refund!

🚨WE’VE GOT MOVIE SIIIIIGN!!!!!🚨

To even keep it open is an affront to the guest. Congrats! You wasted a 20 minutes of your $200 a head day on drawing with a TV!

Disney removes the animator from its “animation studio.”

If you're still (Chuck) Jonesing for some Looney Tunes after seeing Coyote vs. Acme, might I suggest checking out this episode of my music radio show "The Sound of Cinema!"

We cracked 5000 subscribers over on "The Theme Park Audio Archive!" So fun to share music ya love! Check out the site if ya haven't! www.youtube.com/channel/UC2O...

Landon Harvey joins the boys to talk all things ventriloquism and he's brought friends!

“They should eat off trash cans like our guests have to do!” “Ehhhhhhh at least give them a tray.”

80 year old celebrities now like…

With the loss of such a positive force like Dolly, the scales will need to be cosmically balanced.
