    Jun 16 2023

    Welcome to Plus or Bust - A Disney Podcast, where each week we discuss a different, random film from Disney's streaming video service, Disney+, and decide whether or not we would recommend it or not by giving a Plus or a Bust. We also discuss various Disney news and other Disney related topics so each week is something different.

    On this episode we talk about the latest Disney news including the closure of the Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser and the removal of content from Disney+ and Hulu. All that and more plus our featured film discussion on The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
