901 - Disney's America

Welcome to season 9! Josh takes the reins as we explore “Disney’s America,” a complicated and never fully-realized romp through the history of the United States. From battlefield experiences to escaping on the underground railroad, this park was not only ambitious, but incredibly complicated in its mission. Join us for “what could have been” on Rumor Flies!
