September 25, 2016 Episode 13: Touring Walt Disney Studios and Scott's Ears and Jeers
In this episode, Scott recaps his first-ever trip to Disneyland in a segment he dubbed, Disneyland: Scott's Ears and Jeers. We breakdown the things that he loved about Disneyland and DCA and generally compare his experience versus that of his Walt Disney World trips.

Also, four of us got to go on a private tour of The Walt Disney Studios in Burbank! This tour is only available via redemption of Disney Rewards Points, so we certainly have Holly to thank for her impressive collection of Disney DVDs and Blu-Rays. We also talk about our run-in with a certain Disney CEO!
