Len Testa and Jim Hill break down the newest Monstropolis concept art and speculate on Disney's next big land grab near Blizzard Beach. They also examine Disneyland's expansion strategy, a Coco boat ride, and why the Avatar land plans are quietly devouring backstage space. Then, in part three of the Journey Into Imagination saga, Jim reveals how Figment almost got replaced by Michael Jordan—and how one flubbed line at an NBC upfront helped create The Golden Girls. Updated Monstropolis plans hint at a larger land—and a suspiciously vacant cast parking lot Could a new DVC resort be rising near Blizzard Beach? Western Way roadwork says yes Disneyland's expansion plan: Coco, Avatar, and the final frontier of backstage space The doomed celebrity era of Imagineering, featuring Cheers-inspired Tiki Room and Wallace & Gromit Journey Into Imagination 3.0: how a triage effort (and stored figment AAs) saved the ride The DVC lounge dilemma: why redoing Imagination may need a bit more imagination Big plans, big ideas, and one very unfortunate cheese room.

With over 12 years of experience in veterinary medicine, Lopes brings a deep understanding of patient care, team leadership, and client relations to his role as Practice Manager at Doral Veterinary Care (DVC). His career began in a 24-hour emergency and critical care hospital, where he spent six years as a veterinary technician before expanding into oncology, ophthalmology, and orthopedic surgery. Before joining DVC, he successfully managed multiple general practice veterinary teams across several cities, ensuring excellence in both medical care and client service. Lopes's expertise extends beyond veterinary medicine. His first decade of professional experience was in hospitality, where he developed a keen ability to enhance client experiences and foster strong team dynamics—skills he seamlessly integrates into his work in veterinary care. His lifelong passion for animals began in childhood, growing up alongside a wide array of pets, from dogs and rabbits to a pig and a goat. This love for animals led him into zoological care, where he worked with an impressive range of species, including canids, raptors, primates, and large fauna such as rhinoceroses and giraffes. Notably, he has worked with all seven species of big cats and even the Southern Cassowary, known as the world's most dangerous bird. Outside of work, Lopes is an avid aquarist who enjoys outdoor adventures, fitness, and—above all—spending time exploring the world with his wife and daughter.
Planning a Disney trip and want to save big without sacrificing comfort? In this episode of Revolutionizing Your Journey, host DeAndre Coke sits down with Chelsea from Pixie Point Gals to uncover the real magic behind using the Disney Vacation Club (DVC) and travel points to experience Disney like never before. Chelsea breaks down how families can rent DVC points—even without a membership—and stay at deluxe Disney resorts for a fraction of the price. They talk about the perks of staying on-property, tips for adults visiting Disney, and clever hacks like relocating food between resorts. From avoiding scams to maximizing credit card points, this episode is packed with practical advice and insider tricks for both Disney lovers and travel hackers alike.

Renting advantage: Renting DVC points can save up to 50% on high-end resort stays—even for non-members. Booking flexibility: Being open to travel dates and resorts helps unlock better deals and availability. Adult Disney tips: High-end resorts like the Riviera and experiences like Epcot's “drink around the world” cater to adults. On-property perks: Early park entry, free transportation, and deluxe amenities make staying on-site worthwhile. Points strategy: Combining DVC rentals with travel credit card points furthers savings. Avoiding scams: Booking through verified DVC rental sites helps ensure a smooth and secure experience.

Confused by all the Disney terms like ADRs, LLs, LLSPs, and Mobile Order? You're not alone! In this episode of Mom Street USA, we're breaking down the Disney Parks language—the key acronyms, abbreviations, and insider terms used at Walt Disney World and Disneyland.
This week, Len Testa and Jim Hill reveal how Disney's “temporary” structures - from party tents to prefab domes - have a habit of overstaying their welcome. What starts as a stopgap often becomes a staple, and nowhere is that more obvious than in the strange evolution from Mickey's Birthdayland to Toontown. Mickey's Birthdayland - The 18-month quick fix that morphed into a 20-year land. Festival of the Lion King - The show that squatted in a space meant for dragons... and thrived. Magic Kingdom Strategy - How early entry and Lightning Lane stacking can knock out every headliner by noon. Disney's Indoor Parks - From DisneyQuest to Abu Dhabi, a look at the past and future of enclosed theme parks. It's a celebration of Disney's most beloved “temporary” projects - and the ones that just refused to leave.

Not trying to carbon date us, but we have also been around since the creation of the Star Wars universe and the Marvel one as well. What I am saying is that we have been lifelong fans of all things Disney, and we spend a lot of time around our family's table discussing a lot of these topics.

Len Testa and Jim Hill break down the surprisingly intense history of Epcot's Mission: Space—from launch-day astronauts and jetpack stunts to the guest experience that made this ride one of Disney's most regretted one-and-dones. The Grand Opening – Jetpacks, Walter Cronkite, Buzz Aldrin, and a fireworks display that nearly gave journalists flashbacks. What Went Wrong – Mission: Space didn't just thrill—it made people sick, killed plants, and gave Epcot's custodial team nightmares. The Shrubbery Crisis – Yes, protein spills killed the landscaping. Fixing the Fail – How Disney added trash cans, benches, cold air, and a non-spinning version of the ride (that's actually better). Ride Longevity – Why guests rarely re-ride, and how Mission: Space quietly became the least essential thrill ride at Walt Disney World. What Comes Next – With depreciation schedules catching up, is it finally time to replace it? And what's the likelihood of a Figment/Inside Out combo attraction next door? A fascinating look at how cutting-edge ambition can spin a little too hard—and what happens when the recovery benches outnumber the ride's fans.

Len Testa and Jim Hill dive deep into the infamous debut of Light Magic, Disneyland's ill-fated replacement for the Main Street Electrical Parade. What was promised as a “street-tacular” became a technical and creative misfire that left tens of thousands of annual passholders asking for refunds - and left behind glitter that haunted ride systems for months. The Unraveling of Light Magic – A show so complex it couldn't complete a dress rehearsal before its paid debut Pixies, Pajamas, and Panic – Why cast members wore half-masks, threw conductive Mylar into the crowd, and unintentionally triggered attraction breakdowns across the park Mass Refunds and Retail Regret – The merch worked better than the parade, and fans weren't quiet about it Disneyland's Damage Control – How marketing spin, rewrites, and show tweaks couldn't save it Legacy of the Street-Tacular – From shelved alien parades to Tinkerbell merchandising, what came out of this high-profile flameout It's a hilarious, jaw-dropping look at one of Disney's most legendary live entertainment flops—where the only thing that worked on opening night was the jacket.

Jim reveals Disney World's scrapped plan to retheme the Mad Tea Party with Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland—a move that would've introduced clever nods to the film like “Drink Me” and “Eat Me” food stands and tied directly into Pixie Hollow.

Scrapped plans for a Burton-inspired Mad Tea Party overlay How Walt Disney World hoped to tap into the Nightmare Before Christmas merch model Why Haunted Mansion Holiday won't come to Magic Kingdom Fantasyland expansion budget and leadership changes Tim Burton's final Disney film and his “Dumbo” disillusionment Plus, listener questions about endangered Disney World attractions and ideas for a Muppets-themed rock bar.
