A couple of weeks late is better than never, right?
In this long-awaited (at least by Mike) episode, the British Disnerd takes us through the history of the Tokyo Disney Resort, and then (you guessed it!) through what he thinks would be a pretty awesome way to first experience the original Japanese Disney park, Tokyo Disneyland!
