572: D23 Parks Reveals, Disney Legends and Our Favorite Merch!

Our D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event roundtable continues! In part two, we explore the biggest announcements from Horizons: Disney Parks and Experiences presentation, celebrate the newest Disney Legends, and show off some of our favorite merchandise from the convention. We're joined by a fantastic group of friends: Joey Pittman of the Disney Universe Podcast joins us, along with longtime Skywalkers Courtney and Kelly Turckel. We also welcome Amanda, Kevin, and Kim from Where in the Park seek-and-find game and podcast. Our friends from Where in the Park kick off a spirited discussion of *Horizons: D23 Disney Experiences Showcase*, featuring exciting updates from the Disney Parks. We dig into the Villains Land and Tropical Americas expansions coming to Walt Disney World, the long-awaited return of Dreamfinder and Figment to EPCOT, and the promise of a much-needed Tomorrowland overhaul! We also share our reactions to the Disney Legends Awards Ceremony where the newest honorees have made a lasting impact on Disney history. From Anne Hathaway and Lin-Manuel Miranda to Harrison Ford's surprise appearance honoring Bob Iger, there was no shortage of memorable moments. Finally, it's time for a little show-and-tell as we all reveal our favorite D23 merchandise and impulse buys. What was your favorite D23 moment and merchandise?
