We have spent the entirety of this show following the format of each episode covering a land or attraction. And barring some holiday shenanigans and some SEA adventures, we've been extremely loyal to that format. But this episode is intended to break that mold. Annie has some big news that we need to share before we blast off and explore the outer reaches of Space Mountain, so we figured we'd take this opportunity to ditch the script and have a Disneyland centered conversation about family, memories, and legacies amongst great friends. We're so pleased with how this episode turned out and we hope you enjoy this little detour that we've taken on our way to exploring the LAST mountain of our grand circle tour. Please Stand clear of the doors!
