Happy New Year and welcome to the first show of 2022! We had a week off to enjoy Christmas with our families but we're back and talking nonsense about theme parks again.

While we naturally chat a lot about Disney and Universal, we also chat about the state of the theme parks here in the UK and touch on a few European favourites as well!

Join us for episode 304 of the Theme Park Trader Podcast.
Just before we continue our tour of Disney's Hollywood Studios and wander into Galaxy's Edge, we thought it would be fun to see what people thought of one of the attractions in the land.
Join us this week as we find the least favourable opinions online for Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. We also start the episode on a bit of a rant on the new Star Wars hotel coming to the Walt Disney World Resort.

Join us for episode 301 of the Theme Park Trader Podcast.
We promised we'd be back in Disney's Hollywood Studios this week didn't we? Well considering Ryan didn't spend the time he needed to prep for the continuation of the tour of the park, we decided to read out some poor reviews of Oga's Cantina.
Keep in mind that Dan hasn't visited the venue and Ryan thinks it is one of the best places on Disney Parks property...

Join us for episode 300 of the Theme Park Trader Podcast.
As we hit this huge milestone we thought it would be a good idea to be positive about Walt Disney World for a change. So instead of turning to some of the worst reviews that people have left for the resort, we're reading out some of the best!
We also share a few of our favourite memories along the way.
Thank you to everyone who has been with us all this time, here's to the next 300 shows!
