Wdw Happy Hour - News, Brews, Reviews, And Everything Else Disney!

In this episode, we take 9 categories (including Disney Characters, Movies, Attractions), and lay out each of our spiciest takes. We share all the things that each of us like (and dislike!) considerably more than the general public. We apologize in advance... Hope we can still be friends!   Take a seat at the bar, and follow us on social media!

Matt, Katherine, Rob, and Scott took a trip down the Most Magical Place on Earth for Scott's b-day. We packed a lot into a long weekend, and you could even say we had some milestone moments. We ended up recording on-site in Florida and the result was a bit long, so we ended up splitting this episode into two separate episodes. That's right, dear listener. You are getting double the content for the same low price of NOTHING! How did you get so lucky? Enjoy part two of two. Cheers!   Take a seat at the bar, and follow us on social media!
