Episodes #188 - The extraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter


Overview: This podcast takes a look at what came after Mission to Mars closed in the Magic Kingdom. In short, it was a creative thrill ride that didn't provide physical thrills, but rather psychological ones. Seize the future with XS!   



Notes: Michael Eisner asked for it to be more terrifying along the way. And the Imagineers had to work with the existing building, and most of the set designs in order to keep costs down. Arguably, this is one of the most non-Disney attractions ever put in to the Magic Kingdom.

Episode #187 - changes coming to the World



Its more Disney news, kind of.... I take a look at changes that have come and are coming to the world. In particular I look at Frozen taking over the Maelstrom.




Remember there's a social app to use as you experience the Food & Wine Fest at EPCOT. Its only for the iPhone (sorry other users, but I'm an apple developer)....

The basic premise is this: you show up at the F&W Fest and wonder where should I start? What's trending? What do people like? So you open the app, and search for food.

Its totally social, so as people try a dish, they can give it a thumbs up (or down), write a review, or rate it on a 5-star scale. And after you try it, you can too!

Plus you can tweet about it - and check the twitter feed to see what others have to say about #EpcotFoodAndWine.

Best of all, its free! Check it out here:
