Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creators discuss several recent developments at Walt Disney World, beginning with a monorail power failure that necessitated guest evacuations.

The hosts analyze the potential impact of this leadership change following the opening of Galaxy's Edge, noting that crowds for the new Star Wars land have not met expectations.

The episode also covers significant cuts to live entertainment and the increasing use of automated technology, such as AI and automated cameras, to replace human cast members. Finally, the hosts address reports of guest mistreatment toward employees. They discuss how rising vacation costs may contribute to increased guest entitlement and conclude by encouraging viewers to practice kindness and offer positive feedback to cast members through official channels to counterbalance negative interactions.
