)
Glenn and Chris are done with the game
It’s so frustrating
We’re so sorry we’re talking about this. It’s so embarrassing. This is it though. Well, at least until the special Christmas emojis are released...
New Christmas offering at Disney Hollywood Studio
[Jingle Bell, Jingle Bam!](

)
Glenn’s opinion: Good effort, but not a replacement for Osbourne Lights
Chris is looking forward to seeing it. It may be a new tradition for them.
Epcot should be the center of Disney’s Christmas effort. Decorate World Showcase with the Osbourne lights.
Annual Passes
Chris just renewed his. The “Disney Tax” in October
Should Glenn buy Annual Passes? There’s a [special deal](

Parking is included, as is PhotoPass, and those are huge benefits
