A Welcome Message From Rachel Kolb

To the listeners of the Disney Film Project,

Hello! My name is Rachel. You might have heard me guest host on the Unidentified Flying Oddball and Planes episodes. Recently, I was invited to join the podcast, and I happily accepted. I have been a fan of the podcast for quite some time, and I am so excited to now be involved with the show.

Anyways, I wanted to introduce myself to those of you who don't know me yet. My love of the Disney movies and parks started at a young age when I researched Walt Disney for a school project. Not only was I impressed by his creative energy and the innovations created by his company, I was inspired by his self-confidence and unwillingness to give up on his dreams. It also helped that I grew up in the midst of the recent Disney renaissance with The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and The Lion King. When I discovered that I share my birth date December 5th with Walt himself, I knew I was meant to be a life-long Disney fan.

Today, I am a freelance film and television reviewer for JustPressPlay.net and a series of other online publications. I am also currently working on a children's book which I am writing and illustrating. My philosophy towards film criticism is looking at the whole film, from the costume design to the cinematography. It is important for a film to be well-written and well acted, but I try to also look at the production values in a movie and recognize the work behind it.

Outside of the show, I can be found on Twitter @rachelekolb, on Tumblr at http://rachelthenerdynewlywed.tumblr.com/, and at www.JustPressPlay.net. I look forward to sharing my love of all things Disney with all of you, and hope you enjoy what I have to share!

~Rachel

A Bittersweet Note by Briana Alessio

Hello, friends.  I’m the kind of person who likes to cut to the chase so I’m going to make this blog post short and sweet.  I have decided to resign from a full time position on the podcast.  You will still hear me as a guest host occasionally but I will no longer co-host or blog regularly.

This decision is not a result of anything wrong in my own life, thank God.  Believe me, this was not an easy decision and it has been incredibly difficult.  It is simply a personal decision which I have decided will be best for me.  After much evaluation of opportunities and what’s out there in the big blue world, there are a few things I’ve been wanting to do and thought this would be a great time to do it. 

This blog post is not written with any hostility or negativity in the least.  I love Ryan, Todd and Cheryl more than words and will always continue to.

To my beloved co-hosts: I love the three of you and wish you continued success with this amazing podcast.  To the podcast’s awesome fans/listeners: Thank you for your support and please continue to listen!  You all rock.

God bless!
