Geez - I didn't even know it was up yet. I've been watching for it. Was going to post here though don't know that it qualifies as news but I hang out here more than anywhere.

Webmaster Pete invited me on to talk about the availability thread I curate over on the DVC boards and kept me around for the whole recording session of 4 episodes. Looks like the "Resort Only Stay" is the first one up. (Episode 12) That was the first one we recorded - I didn't talk a ton on that one. I should be on the next 3 as well, and there's a good possibility I'll be back for more - so if you watch make sure to leave positive feedback about the group dynamic! (Or negative feedback if you can't stand me.)

I love those charts. Thanks for putting in the work. I have used them to understand if DVC is right for us and also to gauge what kind of availability to expect and when I should put in requests as a non-DVC owner renting points.

Rumored plans for Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway

I heard the plans were leaked elsewhere online. He just grabbed it from there. I don't understand promoting this loser, who appears to live to stick it to Disney as part of some juvenile vendetta and plea for attention.

Not promoting him. I am just showing the plans which others say is accurate. Also not sure where else the plans were leaked.

Disney assumes full control of Hulu after deal with Comcast

Wow. Will be interesting to see what Disney opts to have on Hulu versus Disney+ versus ESPN+. I guess Disney+ is for movies and original programming based from their movies and Hulu will continue to be just for TV shows? And ESPN+ for live sports?

While it would make more sense (and be consumer friendly) to have them all consolidated into one platform .. is Disney just going to diversify their content to try and get their customers to buy (or bundle) 3 separate subscriptions? So . .while each one (indvidually) has a good price, bundled together (to get it all) you start paying near the cable bill you cut.

Either way .. this could continue to be a Netflix killer. I don't see sticking with Netflix in the fall if Disney has a decently priced bundle. The only reason I have cable TV (AT&T Uverse) is because they keep offering me a deal to essentially get TV for free (seriously .. if I dropped TV from my internet/tv deal they gave me (after I threatened to cancel), they would charge me just as much for internet alone (if not more) than my current price (around $60/month).
