There's a lot to unpack here and we'll talk about it all as we break down all the big news we received over the last couple of days, with our own signature bit of Hyperion Positivity to go with it. Once we finish up our time Discussing D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event Announcements, you'll also get this week's Lin Manuel Miranda tidbit as we continue our journey through "The Year of Lin"! Today's just happens to tie right in with our main topic. So, stick around for that. Certainly, that's not all. As always, we wrap it all up with tips that might help you on your next Disney vacation.   If you have any comments, questions, or requests to cover a particular topic, please feel free to Contact Us!   Want more even MORE fun Disney news?
