Welcome, foolish mortals. Planning your first Walt Disney World trip can feel like stepping into the stretching room: exciting, mysterious, and slightly alarming once you realize how much there is to do.

In this episode, the Grim Grinning Dads break down how to build the perfect first-time Disney World trip — the kind that’s realistic for real families, without burnout, chaos, or the dreaded mid-day meltdown.

They cover resort choices (value, moderate, deluxe), ideal trip length, why first-timers should skip park hopping, and how to approach dining reservations with a calm plan instead of panic. If you want a trip that leaves you smiling instead of staggering back to the bus stop, this one’s for you.
