Seeing Wizards being a mixed family was so touching to me. Seeing Alex failing Spanish and not knowing how to speak it in that one episode really resonated with me because it was like the same thing for ME and I felt so represented!!

[@aangybby]

the chocolate fountain episode :') iconic

[@annejia5382]

And Harper being Alex's bestfriend since kindergarten who's always had been so interested and enthusiastic about the culture but always say/guess/explain things about it wrongly 😂

[@kaitlynpawloski2036]

I loved that episode it was so funny!

[@priscillanieto3322]

SAME! My dad's first language is Spanish but he didn't teach any of us kids, and I always felt silly for not knowing and disconnected to my culture. That episode was very nice to see.

[@victoriabonefont435]

@@priscillanieto3322 exactly how I felt!

[@bryanwoods3373]

It's so cute seeing Selena just be so free. Shows how much she cares for them and how safe she feels.

[@aspaceproductions]

Gotta shout out Selena Gomez. I know a lot of celebrities her size would never do a podcast about some kids show that gave them their first big break.

[@elmal316]

Times were so simple back then. I remember my little self sitting in front of my TV and watching the show with no worries haha. It's crazy how quickly time flies and how we all grow with all these moments becoming old memories. I'm so glad we got to see this wholesome reunion and bring back a little bit of nostalgia.

[@Fitz710]

Completely agree. I’m 27 now and have a whole ass adult life to be responsible for. How nice it would be to go back to the times when all that mattered is what new video game just came out.

[@sandiego2380]

not back then. Jesus, times are always simpler when you younger. It doesn't mean back then there wasn't sh***** going on already.

[@Fitz710]

@@sandiego2380 yeah but as a kid you’re oblivious to it. The point is to be able to go back to a time when you can be oblivious to the shit going on around you. Shit I grew up during the Recession. My dad lost his job. But they held shit together while they let me be a kid.

[@frissielj9050]

Jennifer was the first celebrity I met as a kid and I remember seeing her walk out of the movies and I absolutely freaked out. It was the best interaction I’ve had with a celebrity and she was just the sweetest and funniest person. And she even hugged me after we took a picture and told me she really appreciated me watching the show.

[@liciaelizalde]

This was really deep, I just can’t take David face of my mind and how emotional he got🥲 like a real father somehow, and Jennifer’s feelings sooooooooo relatable about friendship ❤️‍🩹 love you all, thanks for doing this, Ecuadorian fan 🇪🇨💖

I'm so happy for every Kid Disney actress/actor who comes out normal and not all messed up. Actress/Actors who are down to earth, friendly and nice are my favorite.

[@srijala_bhujel]

@@rozwashingtonsolympicmedal that’s great 😊

[@13luberri]

What's so beautiful about this, is that so many of us grew up watching disney. The cast knows this. Having selena be able to join on this podcast and provide some extra cute moments that she remembers is so magical. I love her emotion and feelings that show what being human is. Things like being a hopeless romantic or having a prayer huddle is prob the cutest thing in my opinion. It takes me back to all the ideals, heart, and love I had as a child....and the growth overtime as i got older. Thank you..

[@lxttlebird8100]

''What has been your biggest mistake so far.... and you can't say a boys name'' - that had me cracked up haha, the timing of that question!!!!

[@ChristoAbrie]

lol, her complaining about "why did i have to be a singer too?" is such an Alex Russo moment, i can practically hear Alex say that in her typically sarcastic tone.

[@Tsumi784]

They all seem so happy talking about the show and how open they are to doing another project as the same characters all together. i hope one day they do

[@bluemilkxo]

the fact that Alex had a quinceanera made me so happy 🥰 i remember seeing her dress and wanting one just like it. Mine was the same just baby blue :D

[@TheBitTV]

This podcast existing is such an unexpected surprised but I"m so glad it exists. Smart move on Jennifer and David's part. Love this!

[@MegasXLR]

I grew up with that show, it was more than entertainment, it was a way of life in a way. Selena was the friend I needed, the sister I didn't have and the girlfriend I wanted all at once :) And the other characters were also so relatable and fun to watch. Also another point for David is that he voiced Coop in one of my all time favourite cartoons - Megas XLR :D

[@SOLIDSNAKE.]

If selena is being genuine, her soul needs love and understanding I wish we were friends, it hurts my heart so bad cus I know how that feels

[@dearxphantom]

This was really heartfelt ❤️ :-: glad Selena is doing better now.

[@nightwingnl5354]

2023 is the year of amazing new podcasts

[@akrzton1]

They need to have David Henrie guest star next week due to his character’s birthday on the 10th. Yes, that’s right! A week until Justin’s birthday and 60 days until Alex’s birthday.

[@ruthsanchez9724]

Loved this for my kids, with me being an American and their father being from Peru. The mixed family dinamic was sweet for them to see a family like ours. My youngest resonated with Selena they are very similar in many ways. Happy to know it was a good, safe environment especially for the child actors.

I can’t explain what this just did for my heart ❤😊

[@connyrivkamartinez9889]

Because of this podcast , now My 9 year old son and I are watching the wizards of Waverly place 🔮✨

[@akrzton1]

Season 3 was my favorite season, as well, when the characters went to Orlando, Florida as I would have imagined the cast from the Bug Juice revival series entitled My Adventures at Camp.

[@aleexii18]

Alex was the first main girl character that looked similar to me (I'm not mexican I'm Filipino lol) AND also had a similar name to mine!! I was ecstatic that a character named Alex wasn't a boy but a girl and was a WIZARD to boot

[@SM9Angel]

It’s crazy how I grew up watching this show!! I laughed and loved it! Also.. I love That’s So Raven as well!!!! Ugh, my childhood. I stopped watching Disney stuff as I got older.. but I do tend to go back and watch some old stuff

[@akrzton1]

Don’t we all? This week, Alex went swimming at the Jewish Community Center, drove out to Lower Burrell with her mom to visit her old guy friend, Jerry, played at the Blue Slide Playground at Frick Park, spent a day at Prospect Shelter in Schenley Park, and volunteered at the library. Now, we are working on client Hannah Carson’s Mystery and Magic Night in 2 weeks and we will celebrate Freddie’s and Justin’s birthdays at Dave and Buster’s tomorrow. Happy early birthday to Justin! Hopefully, his actor will join the podcast one day next week in honor of his birthday.

*this is easily my favorite episode already. the love you guys share is so pure, and it’s definitely felt through the screen - on the show and in this podcast. it feels good to see that David & Selena’s “father /daughter” dynamic is as real behind the scenes as it is to us. just know Wizards of Waverly Place holds a special place in all of our hearts. it’s more than just a show we liked… Disney Channel was one of the BEST part of our childhoods, and you’re all a part of that. i remember being sooo excited to watch this show when it aired! i still watch it from time to time to feed my inner child + teenager* 🫶🏾

[@pezzz182]

I was already In my 20s when this show came out but my sisters watched and im glad they found a show they were able to resonate with them. Exactly what Even Stevens and Lizzie Maguire did for me .

[@toula6312]

Yes exactly!! Growing up in the 2000s-2010s with the shows REALLY helped me with my family growing up as well. I grew up a white girl in a Puerto Rican household so it was a mix, and I could really resonate with Selena’s character at the time. It helped a lot

[@pezzz182]

At 2:29 Jennifer asks, re. mixed race families, "Had Disney done that before?" Probably not; but Lucy and Desi had.

[@sandiego2380]

I loved that for the first time they made made the girl the troublemaker (in a good way) and the boy the goody good smart one. And that Alex could just be herself without people mocking her and questioning her sexuality, which is why when Stevie came on and people wer Elise those two are so into each other, it made me so mad that once again the lgbtq community thinks that if a girl is not the typical female goody good character, if she's tough like boys, she must be queer.

[@a.evelyn5498]

I like how he made the stipulation that it couldn’t be a boy, when he asked her biggest regret. I would imagine most if not all of us had the same thought before he even said that. If the question was *who* is your biggest regret, I imagine such person indeed would be the answer. But *what* it was could be something entirely different & I actually imagine it is. I also don’t think she’d ever say the truth on the podcast. It’s probably something she doesn’t want to voice except in therapy (I would be the same, just say something deep enough but still be swallowable).
