She’s curious about Villains Land and what our hosts think of the coming Magic Kingdom expansion. Plus, a listener from Australia asks how they can experience the magic of Disney Down Under!CJ takes a crack at the very popular “This or That” segment, trying his best to really make you struggle with two incredible Disney options.
