Celebration, Florida: The Unhappiest Place on Earth with Stuff You Should Know | 52

Celebration, Florida was conceived by the Disney Corporation as a magical utopian community, something straight out of a fairy tale—meticulously planned, picturesque neighborhoods replete with ice cream parlors, bike paths, and state-of-the-art facilities. But the promise of living in a theme park soon became nauseating thanks to a greedy real estate developer, crumbling houses, rampant divorces and allegedly… swingers? In the end, a confusing combo of micromanagement and neglect left residents feeling disappointed and certainly disenchanted. Josh Clark and Chuck Byrant from Stuff You Should Know join Misha to put a damper on Celebration, Florida. Follow The Big Flop on the Wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts.
