House Party” is the official Realtor.com® podcast about the overlapping worlds of home and pop culture, hosted by Rachel Stults and Natalie Way. Click the player above to hear our take on this week’s hot topics.

Some days it feels like it’s Disney’s world and we’re just living in it. The entertainment giant controls everything from blockbuster movie franchises to theme parks to a TV streaming platform. But its next big venture is meant to hit close to home.

Disney recently announced the launch of Storyliving by Disney, a series of residential master-planned communities where “the Disney touch is at the heart of it all.” While the details are still vague, community members will apparently have access to curated experiences and entertainment such as “live performances, cooking classes, seminars, and more.”

For Disney superfans, Storyliving is heaven on earth, but what about for the rest of us? This week we get into it all, including the details about the first development, Cotino, smack dab in the desert town of Rancho Mirage, CA.

We also turn our attention to the following:

  • Influencers who are not designers or contractors hosting (and giving advice on) home renovation shows
  • The Spelling Manor, which is back on the market in Los Angeles. Can it really fetch $165 million?
  • This week’s celebrity real estate winner and loser
