NEWS: Former Disney CEO Bob Iger Joins the Metaverse with NEW Genies Partnership

We may not always understand it, but it’s pretty interesting to learn about new technology — especially in Disney World! In the Walt Disney Company, we’ve noticed a shift in focus to a more digital, technology-centric future, but Disney isn’t the only company interested in progress.

We love learning about new technology!

You may remember that former Disney CEO Bob Iger recently left the Walt Disney Company, but his retirement didn’t last long. Recently, Iger shared an announcement that he is back in business — the Metaverse Business, to be exact!

By Madeleine Zaharchuk Leave a Comment

Know what’s so fun about Disney World? No, we’re not talking about Flight of Passage, or eating a Mickey Bar, or saying “hello” to Mickey (though those are VERY fun, too!). One of our favorite parts of going to Disney World is that no two visits are ever the same! Between all the new treats and merchandise released on a daily basis, plus all the fun surprises we happen to find, there’s always something new and exciting just waiting to be discovered.

You never know who you might see in Animal Kingdom!

Speaking of new things, we visited Disney’s Animal Kingdom to check out what was new. Let’s take a look!

By Madison Owens Leave a Comment

If you’ve been to EPCOT recently (or even in the past few years!) you probably noticed the large amount of construction! This is because EPCOT is currently undergoing a HUGE transformation that includes everything from new stores, rides, restaurants, and more.

Yikes! There’s a lot of work to be done

Some parts of the overall project have already been completed, like Space 220 and the Creations shop, while others are still a big work in progress, like the Moana attraction. There are also some attractions that have been put on pause or are a complete mystery to us because Disney won’t share any updates! And, unfortunately, one attraction at EPCOT just shut down for good.

You’ll Need a Royal BUDGET to Afford Disney’s NEW ‘Princess and the Frog’ Minnie Ears!

Hey Disney, we’ve got a question for ya! We find new Minnie ears in Disney World ALL the time, but where are all the princess-inspired ears? Sure, we know about the Tiara ears and the old Ariel-inspired ears, but it’s been a hot minute since we’ve seen a pair of ears inspired by a Disney princess! Imagine how cool it would be to wear a pair of Rapunzel Minnie ears, or what about a pair of Pocahontas ears? These are free ideas, Disney — use them!

It’s always a treat to talk to Princess Tiana!

Whoever’s in charge of Disney merchandise should come talk to DFB; we’re just saying. In the meantime, let’s talk about some new Minnie ears we can ACTUALLY buy!
