Hamilton vs. Burr, Tesla vs. Edison, Yankees vs. Red Sox, Disneyland vs. Walt Disney World? There are many in the Disney online community that love to debate which of the stateside Disney Parks is better, but the reality is that picking between them is like picking your favorite child - you love them equally, but differently.

Lines are a right of passage at Walt Disney World, and some pay good money to skip them. But what if Lightning Lane and Genie+ were down for the day - what would you wait for anyway? We discuss this week on This Happy Podcast!

Imagine, you get to the gate of a Disney park, excited to begin a day of joy and wonder, and you realize that you forgot your ticket (or never had one to begin with!) Sounds like the start of a nightmare, right? Never fear! Even if you can't cross the precipice of a Disney Park, there are places on Disney property where you can go to "stay in the magic." Our hosts reflect on where they go when they don't have a park pass in this week's episode!

It wasn't an easy week to be a Disney fan or employee, but those employees are the difference makers for many people. Today on This Happy Podcast, we focus on the cast members who go above and beyond and make magic happen at the Parks.

It is a time of anticipation. The Disney Parks Empire has introduced the latest weapon in its resort arsenal, the Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser.

In a base outside Disney’s Hollywood Studios, the two-night vacation adventure has been the source of curiosity for years.

After years of secrecy, the newly-unveiled Halcyon Legacy promises to immerse guests in the sequel trilogy world and surround them with Rey, Kylo Ren, Chewbacca and a host of scum and villainy.

The fate of the Starcruiser is now in the hands of the people… and the Force. Join us for our discussion.
