This episode is an update on some of the news around the Walt Disney company. Espn, disneys entertainment business and theme parks all get a nod. And I play an interview with Josh D’amaro which is from the US Travel Association. Listen to the Dow Report here: https://www.ustravel.org/toolkit/dow-report

Disney has some good going on. But this virus? It’s dangerous and returning to a theme park doesn’t seem like a winning idea.

I’m going to take a break from podcasting for a while. Consider it like I’m temporarily closed, much like the resort. I tell you about my decision.

I gave up my annual pass. And at the moment, things are looking not-so-rosy for theme parks in the immediate future - because there’s still a lot of uncertainty.  I listened in to the 2Q earnings call, and have something to say about what I heard.

And of course, I’ve got some more thoughts about it. Plus I hit on a couple of news items that are a little less serious.

Today, I have for you the original entrance area music, which played from 1982-2001 in future world. It set the tone for what futureworld was, and carried on the music from the pavilions. Enjoy!

I delve into the place we’re in as a nation and a world. I consider how disney really is at the epicenter of everything.

As we roll through another week, I thought I’d provide a little fun - here’s the background music loop that was played along mainstreet from about 1989 until 2012. Of course (as always) there’s a little story to tell. Enjoy!
