As we inch closer towards D23, it's time to start preparing ourselves for what’s next, starting with how you approach your 2024 Walt Disney World trip.
With 121 days to go until Disney's fan convention and a ton of news this week, some big announcements are on the way — and often, when some wonderful new experiences come in, others are likely to change or go away completely.
That's why, if you're anything like me, your next visit to WDW will see you prioritizing attractions that can and will change in the near future. From rides we absolutely know will go away (even if you forgot they will!) to a couple we're pulling out of thin air that just seem SO likely, this week's all about a few new kind of must-ride rides to prioritize on your next visit.

Got a little mini episode this week with some chit-chat about Epic Universe — and why Universal's new developments will upend the way you visit Florida theme parks — as well as what we want to see (and NEED to see!) at D23, the Disney fan event coming to Anaheim this August.
*a small note*: In our short discussion about Marvel coming to Tokyo Disneyland, I didn't mention that apparently Spider-Man theme park licensing expired this year at Universal Studios Japan, but...I still think there's a big leap between that and putting Groot into Small World!

Say hello to the themed restaurant of your dreams — where the seats are trackless ride vehicles (!!) and the walls make the food taste better. (Seriously.)
Eatrenalin, located at Germany's Europa Park, blends cutting-edge ride technology, immersive design and haute cuisine for an experience unlike anything else. We're joined by Eatrenalin co-founder and recent THEA award winner Thomas Mack to dish (heh) about this mind-boggling dining experience and trust me, by the end of this episode, Europa Park will be at the tip-top of your bucket list.

It's part TWO of our Tokyo Disney guide, and we're getting INTO it this week. Today, we're discussing rides, attractions, shows, nighttime entertainment, dining and shopping, and recommending what you absolutely cannot miss, from attractions to food and beyond.
And on top of all that, we’re gonna give you a sample 1-day itinerary, give you my tips for spending the day at these parks AND tackle how to get inside Fantasy Springs, the new expansion coming to Tokyo Disney Sea with attractions and experiences themed to Frozen, Peter Pan and Rapunzel.
We will also discuss the four different systems you can use to skip the line here — their version of Fastpass / Genie+ is DIFFERENT and by the end of this episode, I’m confident you’ll have the skills you need to conquer Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disney Sea!

There are more ties to Disney than you'd expect — and a priceless art collection to boot — but is it actually worth taking the time and money to go? We get into ALL of that this week, including some helpful tips for if you do plan to see Luna Luna while it's in Los Angeles!

On this very special holiday week episode, we're discussing all of the theme park restaurants and dining i delved into while at Walt Disney World earlier this month. Is it brutally honest? kinda!! Some old favorites have fallen out of favor while some newer (and new-to-me!) table-service restaurants and quick-service spots wowed me. Come for my unabashed love of a reliable Magic Kingdom restaurant, and stay for me maybe never doing character dining again??
If you're wondering where to eat at Disney World, this one will have you covered and more!
