Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creators of the Diz Unplugged podcast discuss several recent developments within the Disney ecosystem. They begin by addressing a fatal accident involving a worker at the Epcot construction site and report on Disney Cruise Line finalizing the purchase of the Lighthouse Point property in the Bahamas. The discussion covers the economic impact of this development and the potential for local vendor involvement. The hosts also cover the reinstatement of James Gunn as the director of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 following his previous termination. Additionally, they address the retirement of the Walk Around the World commemorative bricks at Walt Disney World and the process for guests to purchase commemorative versions.
