    Oh, We Got A LOT of Disney World STUFF To Talk About!

    **THE ISSUE WITH OUR INTRO HAS BEEN FIXED -- IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS, PLEASE REFRESH YOUR FEED! EXTREME APOLOGIES + THX! - THE MANAGEMENT** My voice is (mostly) back which means I have enough energy to scream into a microphone about EVERYTHING new at Disney World this summer AND what I think it all means for the future of Magic Kingdom + Disney as a whole! This episode...ooh it has it all. Full reviews of the half-dozen new rides and experiences at Disney World? CHECK! A full Congress floor-style speech about Disney Hotels and the small yet powerful way they could improve exponentially? CHECK! A heart-to-heart about the dirt pit @ Magic Kingdom and why it now fills me with hope and not dread? CHECK! Grab a cup of coffee, go for a jog (ilu my runners), do the dishes, and get amped to have A BIG OL CHAT about all things Disney World!

Cross this one off the dream episode bucket list, because we're about to learn the ins and outs of how Macy's puts on these spectaculars on the eve of their 100th parade, right down to wind tunnel testing and the freaking FDNY (!!) I was jaw on the floor this ENTIRE interview, and you will be too.
