We were fortunate enough to sit down with Dalton Sanders and Dustin Ray Shannon - two major Joyland fans who walked us through a historical look at Joyland and what happened that shut it down. Joyland was a major part of the Wichita history in the mid to late 1900s and into the 2000s, and it is missed by many. There is much controversy around both the safety of the park as well as the leadership, which we discuss on the show.

Join us as we go through this roller coaster of  ride that is the history of Joyland and it's impact on this great city. It was a beloved theme park that has since been abandoned, but it will live in our hearts forever.

Dustin wrote a literal book on Joyland and you can find it at dustinrayshannon.com. You can also like the Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/WichitaJoyland for all things Joyland.
