Is Anaheim active? Back On Figg host T-Rell learns there's more than Disneyland

A 76-second clip from the Back On Figg podcast. Photos of Mickey Mouse at Sleeping Beauty Castle and the Big A at Angel Stadium sit above studio footage of four men on orange couches, with a "Back On Figg" sign and a PrizePicks logo in frame. On-screen text reads "T-Rell doesn't believe Anaheim gets active." A speaker says he lives five minutes from Disneyland, and the group goes back and forth over whether the neighborhoods around the park are as calm as the tourist area looks.

To a lot of people, Anaheim means Mickey Mouse and the Angels. A Back On Figg podcast clip that Juice Unlocked posted on June 28, 2026, put that image to the test, with host T-Rell (@_kingtrell) skeptical that anything goes on in the city.

It started when one speaker said where he was from. "I'm from Anaheim, so I'm like, yeah, like five minutes from Disneyland," he said. The reply from across the couch: "Ain't nothing going on over there."

Neighborhoods past the park

The Anaheim side pushed back. Right outside Disneyland, a speaker said, "there's neighborhoods that's around it," and claimed some of them have gang activity. Other voices in the room said they had been around the area and had friends who live there.

One speaker offered a theory about why visitors never see that side of town. "They keep it real nice by Disneyland," he said. "They gotta, like, buff the graffiti, keep it nice so the tourists don't be scared."

Later in the exchange, another line summed up the Anaheim case: "It really goes down in Anaheim."

“I'm from Anaheim, so I'm like, yeah, like five minutes from Disneyland.”

Your turn, Anaheim

Juice Unlocked, which co-posted the clip with Back On Figg and @mattallenn, put the question to its followers: is Anaheim active or not? The post drew more than 2,400 likes and 415 comments.
