Join us for episode 486 of the Theme Park Trader Podcast!

Disney World is a playground, not your private film set.

Today we’re tackling the "Main Character Syndrome" currently infecting our favorite theme parks. We’ve all been there: You’ve spent thousands on a family vacation, only to have your child’s core memories interrupted by a ring light, a gimbal, and a 30-year-old man screaming at his "chat" during the fireworks.

In this episode, we’re calling out the Influencer Plague. We break down the "Deadly Sins" of vlogging—from using flashes on dark rides to blocking Main Street for "outfit transitions." We also pitch a radical new "Creator Policy" to give the parks back to the people they were actually built for: The kids.

Also in this episode: We take a quick, sarcastic look at the bizarre grand opening of PAW Patrol Land at Chessington, where adult "furries" seem to be competing with toddlers for the shortest queues in the park.
