DIZNEY COAST TO COAST: Disney Talks with Rose-Colored Glasses Removed

Disney fans rejoice! In celebration of the recent release of "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny," we're going back to the beginnings of Disney and their relationship with Indiana Jones. That brings us to the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular!, still being performed to this very day at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Joining me for this episode is Kevin Brassard who was one of the first stunt performers to play Indiana Jones in the stunt spectacular. The Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! opened several months after the opening of Disney-MGM Studios on August 25, 1989, and it's been thrilling guests ever since. Listen as Kevin shares his memories of the first performance, what it was like being beaten by a giant boulder, his favorite moment in the show, and some other opportunities Kevin has had with Disney. Including meeting Indiana Jones himself, Harrison Ford, on the red carpet at the world premiere of "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny." That and so much more in this episode.

Disney fans rejoice! This month marks the 35th anniversary of the classic Robert Zemeckis film "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" But, did you know the life of Roger Rabbit goes back long before that?

Disney fans rejoice! This episode is all about the latest movie from Walt Disney Pictures, the long awaited live action retelling of "The Little Mermaid." As you may or may not know, my favorite Disney animated feature is "The Little Mermaid" from 1989. On top of that, one of my absolute favorite Disney characters of all time is Ursula, and Ariel is my favorite Disney Princess. To say I love "The Little Mermaid" is no understatement. When it was announced there was going to be a live action rendition of the film, I had mixed feelings. I was excited about the possibilities, but also protective of the original film. So, what did I think of this latest version? Find out in this episode as we discuss the new additions to the film, the classic moments recreated, old and new music, our favorite character portrayals, and so much more. Journey with us under the sea as we discuss all things "The Little Mermaid."

Disney fans rejoice! As we get ready to say goodbye to Splash Mountain for good in the domestic Disney Parks, we're taking a look back at the way this original Disneyland attraction was opened. If you grew up in the '80s or '90s, you're sure to be familiar with the name Ernest P. Worrell. Did you know that Ernest was part of the Splash Mountain grand opening marketing? On this episode we discuss the TV special "Ernest Goes to Splash Mountain," where Ernest was the first rider of the soon to be defunct attraction. Joining me to discuss is David Pagano, the director of the upcoming documentary "The Importance of Being Ernest." Plus, did you know that Ernest had an official relationship with Disney far beyond this TV special, and that he was even represented in two Walt Disney World theme parks? Hear about all of that and so much more as David and I take a retro trip back in time to discuss "Ernest Goes to Splash Mountain."

Disney fans rejoice! On this episode we're playing a little game of Armchair Imagineering. Just imagine if Disneyland Park opened today in 2023 instead of in 1955. Since the beginning, Walt Disney was promoting his different films and television series in the theme park. But with the vast library of content Disney now creates and owns, what might be some more current representations to appear in each of Walt's original Disneyland lands? Listen along and hear our thoughts on the matter. That and so much more on this episode.
