Disney Parks are always evolving, but not every change is met with open arms. In this episode, we dive into why some Disney fans get upset when classic attractions are re-themed, or even completely replaced (for example Ryan's bitterness over The Great Movie Ride) Is it nostalgia? A fear of change? Or something more? We’ll discuss some of the most controversial attraction overhauls, from Splash Mountain to Maelstrom, and explore what makes these updates so divisive. Plus, we’ll debate whether Disney should focus more on preserving history or embracing fresh storytelling. Finally, we attempt to create a Mount Rushmore of attractions that we think will never be changed or removed (it's harder than it sounds)!

Enjoy the show!

To Walt, ‘plus’ was a verb—an action word—signifying the delivery of more than what his customers paid for or expected to receive. He constantly challenged his Imagineers to see what was possible, and then take it a step further … and then a step beyond that.

On the show this week, Randy shares his thoughts on "plussing," and why Walt's belief in this this concept may be more important now than ever before as Disney continues to transform their parks.
