Episode 86: Superstar Limo
We're kicking off a new series about Defunct Disney attractions! Starting off is a ride that some have called unfunny, instantly dated, and creatively starved. Get ready to be called "babe" by a greasy, cigar-smoking agent and spend a relentless amount of time trying to navigate Southern California in the most illogical way.
