Len Testa and Jim Hill look at recent updates across Walt Disney World and Epic Universe, including a new water play area in Animal Kingdom, a July reopening for Test Track, and a revealing Disney Cruise Line survey. Then in the main segment, Jim takes us back 30 years to the wild creation of Disneyland's Videopolis—a teen dance club built in just 100 days that introduced churros, challenged norms, and (almost) ran over some tourists. New Indiana Jones-themed play area replaces Animal Kingdom's Boneyard Test Track reopens July 22—why we still don't know what's inside Epic Universe adds stage permits and steampunk restaurant progress A Disney Cruise Line survey that might explain recent price drops The teen problem Disney had to solve—and how Videopolis became the answer Churros, breakdancing, and Michael Eisner's MTV-fueled moonshot Videopolis wasn't just a dance floor—it was a cultural reset, a churro revolution, and a crash course in fast-tracking theme park design.

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. This week Disney announced the opening date for the new Test Track and gave us an update on the new Disney Starlight parade coming to the Magic Kingdom. Bob Iger is retiring in 2026, which means Disney needs a new CEO. Instead of picking someone from within the Company, what if they picked an outsider? Maybe even a pair of Disney loving podcast hosts? Well this week, we are officially throwing our hats in the ring for the title of Walt Disney CEO. And we come with a vision to revitalize the Company and set it up for years to come. From retooling the streaming strategy to battling AI to a splashy acquisition that every good CEO needs, we lay out a strong position (at least we think so
This week we'll discuss the opening date of Test Track 3.0 and what we think we all might be seeing in the attraction. Plus Disney Cruise Line has changed their required deposit for an upcoming vacation, the 4th of July celebration at the MK, and more.
Mike and Rikki are here today sharing some updates from down at Walt Disney World including the re-opening information on Test Track 3.0 on July 22, 2025! We also discuss the Boneyard playground area closing at Disney's Animal Kingdom Park on September 1, 2025, but all is not lost, as we should get a new playground in the Tropical Americas section in the future! Rikki also shares her thoughts on the H20 Glow Nights experience at Typhoon Lagoon a few weeks back, as well as some meals at Garden Grill and Liberty Tree Tavern! Mike also talks about a fun fireworks dessert party experience as well! Please share your thoughts over on the Discord channel at www.beourguestpodcast.com/clubhouse.

This week brought emotional farewells and new beginnings, as Disney fans witnessed the closure of Muppet One Last Look at Muppet Courtyard (Grand Avenue) and Muppet Vision 3D Before It Closes ForeverVision 3D and saw fresh concept art for both coasts. As part of the WDW Weekly Update, here's what unfolded. Muppet*Vision 3D Officially Closes. It's official: MuppetVision 3D* has closed its doors at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Sam and Greg take a final stroll through the attraction, sharing behind-the-scenes views and paying tribute to the classic. Alongside video highlights and personal memories, we break down the Top 10 Quotes from Muppet*Vision 3D—including Fozzie's “banana cream pie”, Sam Eagle's patriotic finale, and Statler and Waldorf's relentless heckling. Fans of Jim Henson's legacy won't want to miss this nostalgic send-off. New Courtyard Concept Art Debuts With the attraction officially closed, new concept art has appeared on the construction walls surrounding the former Muppet Vision area. The updated visuals reflect a slight tweak in the Monsters Inc. Land. Compared to previous art shared at D23, this version shows a tweaked courtyard layout. The coaster show building remains part of the vision, but its placement is deeper into the backlot, creating breathing room between adjacent structures. Though Disney renamed the area Grand Avenue, it remains Muppet Courtyard in the hearts of fans. These changes mark a complete transformation of the area, setting the stage for something new while bringing to a close a legacy location. Disneyland Concept Art Expands the Story Over at Disneyland Resort, new concept art is adding layers to the park's 70th anniversary narrative. Updates to the entrance plaza include widened paths, revised landscaping, and what appears to be preparation for future infrastructure changes. However, the primary concern remains the Avatar experience. New visuals indicate how it might integrate into Disneyland's footprint, fueling speculation over land use and attraction placement. Additional Park Highlights Back at Magic Kingdom, The Emporium is fully restocked, and VIPassholder character meet and greets are in full swing. The Hall of Presidents has reopened its lobby with updated historical exhibits. Meanwhile, both Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Belle Riverboat are set to close in July, giving guests one last chance to experience these peaceful Magic Kingdom staples. At Epcot, Test Track walls are down and testing is underway. The UK pavilion's pianist now performs at the Odyssey, and Annual Passholders are meeting Dopey thanks to new AP-exclusive offerings.

If you are planning a Walt Disney World trip in 2025, don't miss this episode. I'm sharing my strategy for "rope dropping" EPCOT, or what to ride as soon as the park opens. I'm suggesting you head to one of the 4 corners of EPCOT - Remy's Ratatouille Adventure, Frozen Ever After, Soarin or Test Track (when it reopens). But a lot of this will depend on where you get to enter the park! I also share my top 3 picks for Lightning Lane Multi Pass at this park. Come back for the rest of the series to hear my strategy for Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom.Want my podcast library sorted by topic?Join my email newsletterI hope you enjoyed today's show.

2025 is here, and it's shaping up to be an exciting year for theme park lovers!
In this episode, I sit down with Reuben Fine, who leads OEM partnerships at CallRevu, to dive into a critical yet often overlooked aspect of dealership success: phone calls. Did you know that 30-40% of dealership calls go unanswered? That's a staggering number of missed opportunities that could dramatically impact sales and service outcomes. Reuben and I explore how dealerships can leverage technology, recorded calls, and insights to transform their phone handling processes. We discuss how OEMs are evolving their approach by collaborating with tech partners to improve phone efficiency, sales processes, and customer experience. Reuben also introduces exciting tools like CallRevu's new AI-powered Test Track, which gamifies training for dealership teams, making development fun and engaging. If you've ever wondered how to future-proof your dealership, improve customer service, and maximize every opportunity that comes through the phone, this episode is for you. From tech solutions to actionable skills, we cover it all in this fun, insightful conversation. Dealer Talk with Jen Suzuki Podcast |Jennifer@edealersolution.com | 800-625-1590 | edealersolutions.com

Not sure where to go on vacation next year? We have all kinds of ideas from new theme parks, new attractions, new hotels, cities and destinations celebrating anniversaries, destinations that are easier to access thanks to new direct flights, and more. Plus, stick around to hear where to avoid in 2025 too! Universal Orlando is opening Epic Universe in May of 2025 and you currently need to buy a three-day ticket, with one day to be spent in the Epic Universe Park. There are also three new hotels opening in 2025 in conjunction with the new park. Walt Disney World is also reopening the Test Track attraction and getting a new parade in Magic Kingdom. Disneyland will also be celebrating its 70th anniversary all year long and adding a new Walt Disney animatronic attraction. Two new attractions will also open in the Avengers land. Mattel Adventure Park is opening in Glendale, Arizona with a Barbie Fun House and Hot Wheels roller coaster. Oklahoma City is opening an Okana Resort with a hotel and waterpark right next to the new First Americans Museum near the Bricktown entertainment district. Santa Rosa, California is celebrating the Peanuts comic strip's 75th anniversary at the Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center. (Hear more about Kim and Tamara's trip to Santa Rosa.) Germany is celebrating the 50th anniversary of its Fairy Tale Route (read more about Jade from Vagabond 3's tripwith her daughter) Southwest is now flying direct flights to Iceland from more cities (such as Nashville). Just know that you won't be able to use your Companion Pass for Iceland flights. This winter is also supposed to be another peak solar cycle to see the Northern Lights in Iceland, Alaska, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. There are also new direct flights from Atlanta and Philadelphia to Copenhagen via a KLM code-share with Delta. Copenhagen is one of the oldest theme parks in the world and the city is quite family friendly. If you are traveling to Europe next year, at some point they will introduce the ETIAS visa and the UK is now going to introduce its own visa system in January 2025. 2025 is the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen's birth and cities like Bath, England will be doing a lot to celebrate. It is a great time to plan a trip for literary fans! Fiji now has direct flights from Dallas. Fiji is an affordable and exotic destination for families, which is easier to get to and much cheaper than places like the Maldives. There will also be new direct flights from Newark, NJ to Faro in the Algarve in Portugal (hear about Kim and Tamara's trip to Portugal). United also has flights to Sao Miguel in the Azores. Turks and Caicos has opened many new luxury hotel properties and beachfront villas and offers beautiful beaches. They are also opening a second airport. Indianapolis will be a great spot for a girls' trip or a mother-daughter sports-themed trip - just get your tickets to the Indiana Fever very far in advance. Seattle is also a great sports city with a women's soccer team and WNBA team. Italy is celebrating the Jubilee year from December 2024 through Epiphany January 6, 2026. Rome is going to be extra busy next year, especially at the Vatican (and it could be closed for events.) In 2025, Tamara will be visiting both Peru and Chile in March and April 2025. Kim is meeting her daughter Mia in Paris in July and doing eight days in Switzerland.

Maz is back on the show this week, and she will be joining Rick to rank every attraction at Epcot in Walt Disney World. The two started the tier list last week, but will wrap it up today.
In this episode of Hangin' at the Hangar Bar – A Disney Adults Podcast, Scott and Candice dive into the fascinating world of Disney park attractions and explore how they've changed over the years. From beloved classics to innovative reimaginings, they break down what makes these rides so memorable and why updates can spark both excitement and nostalgia. Pirates of the Caribbean: Originally opened in 1967, this iconic ride has seen updates that include the addition of Captain Jack Sparrow and the fan-favorite character Redd. Scott and Candice discuss how these changes shape the ride's story and whether they maintain its original spirit. Haunted Mansion: Known for its eerie charm and humor, the Haunted Mansion continues to thrill guests. Scott and Candice talk about seasonal overlays like the Nightmare Before Christmas edition, and debate whether these add extra magic or if the classic version should stand alone. Splash Mountain to Tiana's Bayou Adventure: With Splash Mountain's re-theming to The Princess and the Frog, Scott and Candice share their excitement for Tiana's story and discuss the cultural significance of this change. Tower of Terror to Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: Breakout! (Disneyland): The eerie Twilight Zone theme was replaced with an upbeat Marvel storyline. Tune in to hear Scott and Candice's take on how this dramatic shift in tone impacts the thrill of the experience. EPCOT's Transformation: Originally focused on showcasing technology and culture, EPCOT's Future World has now been split into themed neighborhoods with new attractions like Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and Remy's Ratatouille Adventure. Scott and Candice discuss whether this shift balances Walt Disney's educational vision with storytelling magic. Maelstrom to Frozen Ever After: The Norway Pavilion's original attraction, Maelstrom, gave way to the popular Frozen franchise. The hosts discuss the trade-off between authentic cultural representation and the allure of Disney IP. Test Track: From its early days as a test-drive experience to its high-tech makeover, Scott and Candice debate the pros and cons of Test Track's modern look and whether it lost some of its original charm. Spaceship Earth: This iconic EPCOT attraction has seen subtle updates over the years. Scott and Candice talk about their love for the journey through human history and what future updates could mean for the ride's legacy. Carousel of Progress: A symbol of Walt's vision, Carousel of Progress has been largely untouched but still captures the evolution of technology. The hosts share their thoughts on whether this attraction should stay preserved as-is or could benefit from a fresh look. Listener Takeaway: This episode is perfect for Disney enthusiasts who love exploring the past, present, and future of the parks. Join us as we consider what it means for a ride to become a “classic” and how evolving attractions impact our Disney experiences. Don't miss Scott and Candice's reflections and debates on these iconic attractions!
