We’re kicking off a brand-new series: Resort Wars — where Walt Disney World resorts go head-to-head, and only one can walk away with the crown! First up, it’s a Value Resort throwdown between Disney’s Pop Century and Disney’s Art of Animation.Pop Century opened in 2003 and celebrates the nostalgia of the 1950s through the 1990s with larger-than-life icons and over 2,800 rooms. Meanwhile, Art of Animation debuted in 2012 with immersive theming from beloved Disney and Pixar films, offering standard Little Mermaid rooms and spacious family suites themed to Cars, The Lion King, and Finding Nemo.We pit these two fan favorites against each other across seven battle rounds — including theming & atmosphere, rooms & comfort, dining, transportation, recreation, overall value, and listener feedback. Who takes the win for pool bars and food courts? Which resort is more budget-friendly? And where will your family find the perfect blend of magic and convenience?Plus, we share results from our listener poll and highlight firsthand experiences and opinions from our amazing community to help settle the debate.Whether you’re planning your next Disney vacation or just love a good Disney debate, this episode is packed with insight, tips, and a few laughs along the way.
