Curtis Stone

I’m a husband, dad, grandfather, Disney Geek, podcaster, traveler, classic-rock fanatic and technology guy from Connecticut.

For more than a decade, I’ve hosted the *Geekin’ on Walt Disney World Podcast*. What started as a fun way to talk about Disney became something much more meaningful — an amazing community where listeners became friends and Disney became the thing that brought us together.

When I’m not podcasting, you’ll usually find me traveling with my wife Margita, listening to classic rock on vinyl, hiking with our yellow Lab Sawyer, playing around with new technology or dreaming about the next adventure.

As I head toward the next chapter of my life, I’m trying to keep things pretty simple: **travel more, stay curious, keep creating, spend time with the people I love and enjoy the good stuff while it’s happening.**

There’s still a lot I want to see, learn and experience — and I’m looking forward to sharing some of it along the way.
