Episode notes

Disney closed the iconic Twilight Zone Tower of Terror in 2017 and transformed it into a Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy ride, causing initial upset among fans. However, once the new ride opened, it was well-loved. Disney's willingness to update rides to modern content shows their ability to withstand initial backlash and encourages visitors to try out the new experiences before judging.

Episode 342: Neal and Toby dive into the start of a revolutionary nuclear facility being constructed in Wyoming that has the powerful backing of Bill Gates. Then, Disney is set to open a new ride that replaces the longstanding Splash Mountain due to its controversial past. Next, the banana empire Chiquita is ordered to pay $38M in restitution after it was found guilty for financing a terrorist organization that caused pain to eight families. Also, homeownership comes with a price after a recent study found home expenses cost an average of $18,000 in the US. Meanwhile, BeReal is running out of cash and a French gaming company is coming to bail them out. Lastly, the world’s largest convenience store opens in Texas. Yes, everything is truly bigger in Texas.
