Mel and Freddy take a trip to the San Bernardino Mountains to interview Walt Disney Imagineering’s former Senior Vice President of creative development, Tony Baxter. Known as Mr. E-Ticket, Tony’s work includes Big Thunder Mountain, Journey Into Imagination, Star Tours, Splash Mountain, and The Indiana Jones Adventure. He led the creative teams who redesigned Fantasyland in 1983 and built the first Disney park in Europe, Disneyland Paris. This is the first of two episodes with Tony as we glean from his 30 years of experience in themed attraction design.

Our guest for today is Tony Baxter.

Show hosts: Mel McGowan & Freddy Martin

Show design & production: Barry R. Hill

Theme music composed by Rob Watson, closing music by the Lost Dogs.
