D23 Expo 2022 Announcements Discussion

While we were very sad our plans to attend this year's Ultimate Disney Fan Event were thwarted, that doesn't mean we weren't paying attention.

So, this week, our episode will revolve almost entirely around a D23 Expo 2022 Announcements Discussion. We'll talk about many of the exciting things coming our way from Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, and Marvel. However, our big focus will be on the Disney Parks. Listen in to find out our thoughts on all the amazing things we are thrilled to see coming our way soon!
