Overview: I took a trip to Walt Disney World and used FastPass+, and met up with a friend who used the Disability Assistance Pass. I talk about both, as well as Memory Maker. Plus, because I took a trip to the resort, I have some stories to tell. 

 Notes: My hat is off to parents of kids with special needs. I know what its like to have kids. I now have a (small) taste of what its like to have one who has special needs. I realize its a labor of love in its own way, but I can see its not always easy. 

 Overview: Mainly, the questions I have been getting lately revolve around a single theme: tell me more about the Magic Bands and Fast Pass. So, I decided to cover it all in a super-sized podcast! I cover some of the history, what it is and does, how it works, and give a few tips on how to get the most out of it. I hope you enjoy! 

 Notes: Visit Tourplans for tips and advice on visiting the parks. I neglected to mention that the Magic Bands can also be used to link your Photopass photos. 

 Overview: Today's podcast is a look at Disney happenings. I cover a lot of things that have been happening over the last few months - the Disney no fly zone, new development and environmental mitigation, some new things to see at Disney World including TCM presents the Great Movie Ride and removal of the Sorcerers hat. Plus there is some discussion about new movies.  

 Notes: For the First Time in Forever... I Did Not Enjoy My Vacation to Disney 

 Overview: Onnie applied to be on the Disney Mom's Panel, and she's here to tell us all about her experience. Plus, we naturally talk about Disney World, trip planning, and some favorite attractions! Take a listen and see how she followed (and continues to follow) her dream. 

 Notes: Visit the Disney Mom's Panel to learn more and ask a question of one of the moms (and dads).

 Overview: Its a podcast so big that it spans two episodes! Today, I am in the Magic Kingdom trying out my MagicBand, FastPass+, and checking out some of the changes that have taken (or are taking!) place. Come and take a listen as I spend my day wandering around and telling stories... 

 Notes: I didn't like the feeling of the MagicBand on my arm, but overall, the system was working well enough. I found the experience enjoyable overall. The two pieces of music you hear are from the MainStreet Marching Band and Jim - the long-time pianist outside of Casey's Corner.

 Overview: Near the end of the Food & wine Festival, I finally found a day to enjoy the event. I brought my recorder, and tell you all about my experience! I've got some thoughts about the dishes I tried, the app I created, and some of the fun things to see and do. Come in and take a listen to my day enjoying Epcot's Food & Wine Festival! 

 Notes: I am looking for feedback on the app, if anyone happened to use it. Feel free to send me an email if you think of anything. I know, for example, that having a way to plan things to try would be helpful. The guitarist heard in the podcast is Gerardo Manrique. 

 Overview: I took a trip to the Pacific Northwest over the summer, and I found some interesting things that tie back to Disney in some small ways. I also rode the monorail in Seattle, and its a cool trip down memory lane...so I spend some time talking about how it relates to Disney history. 

 Notes: The story of Puddles can be found in Episode #14 ... visit NPS.gov to learn about National Parks.

 Overview: Mayhem may not be quite the right word, but I do talk about Fastpass+ in general and how it works. And then I move on to some things that are happening around FastPass+. New "limited tests" with Toy Story Midway Mania, and with the Be Our Guest Restaurant. What does it all mean? And I talk about ApplePay and its connection to the MagicBands. 

 Notes: Much of this is speculative, but based on some facts, and I don't claim to have any amazing inside scoop. Its my best guess.

 Overview: This podcast has some followup thoughts and comments about the ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter, from some of its original concepts, to one part of the show that left...and then I talk about its closure. Afterward, I talk about the show that replaced it, which is a truly terrible attraction - Stitch's Great Escape. 

 Notes: The movie review is from Jeremy Jahns (http://www.jeremyjahns.com/). I am amazed at how much history there is in this attraction.  

 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.
