Join us as we finish a riveting round of Around The World (TradeMark)(not really), a game where we list our absolute favorites of anything - attraction, eatery, element - in every land at the parks. This week we're playing Animal Kingdom and Disney's Hollywood Studios, and some HARD choices, y'all. The struggle. 

Before that, we cover lots and lots of news (coasters! food! meet and greets! stupid conservative backlash!). Join us, won't you?

It's GAME TIME. 

Join us as we kick off Around The World (TradeMark)(not really), a game where we list our absolute favorites of anything - attraction, eatery, element - in every land at the parks. This week starts with Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, and some interesting choices and debate.

Before that, we discuss Disney's shameful executive response to Florida's "Don't Say Gay" bill, along with some absolutely BS, misogynist reviews of Turning Red, and a recap of the RETURN of Festival of Fantasy (enter trumpet fanfare).

In today's episode, we discuss Galactic Starcruiser, some upcoming vacays, and riff on what's worth it (in terms of Disney dollars and spend), and also lightsaber shivs. Seriously. 

SPECIAL GUEST STAR: TJ the dog, and his jingly-jangly collar. Apologies for background noise here, but it's low volume.
