Trapped On Vacation episodes:

August 17, 2006tov49 - Trapped with wet hair that pops balloons
Sorry for the delay this week everyone!
(See the post on the DPN that explains why...)
This week we take a break from the Florida Summer heat as we enjoy all of the water rides at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure.
The audio on Bluto's Bilge Rat Barges and Dudley Doright's Rip Saw Falls was taken in a waterproof bag. That means no binaural goodness, but the Jurassic Park segment had the good mics. (JP usually doesn't get as wet, but you can hear some staticy sounds at the end where a tiny drop of water got on the mic...)
Hope you have fun and stay cool!

I'm back after taking a week off for the Vacation Bridal Shower since my mom was in town....

July 19, 2006 Tov 46 - Trapped with Dragons and Duck Butts!
This week, I wrap up the Trapped on Vacation 3D Film Festival. I'm sad to see it go because that meant that I'll have to actually plan my shows again! The good news is that I'll probably be knocking more stuff off of "Earl's List." in the upcoming weeks/months. So pull out your 3D glasses one last time, sit back and relax and enjoy Mickey's Philharmagic (starring Donald Duck...?)
After that we head out of the Disney Bubble and into the alternate universe known as Islands of Adventure to ride Dueling Dragons. Hold tight to all of your personal belongings, this here's the wildest ride in the medievalness!
As always, have fun!

July 13, 2006 ToV 45 - Trapped with Spidey and Bill Paxton's Brother?
After some technical glitches, ToV 45 is finally up!
This week I continue with the Trapped on Vacation 3D Film Festival as we hit Spiderman at UNiversal Studios Islands of Adventure. Then we investigate how the Mythos Restaurant can be the best Theme PArk Restaurant in the World if it's never open... After that we head to the Disney-MGM Studios (with a nod to Jeff from Houston with the travel directions) and hit Rock N Roller Coaster for a very interesting ride w/ no on ride audio and music...
Then we wrap it all up on the Vacation Home Patio with a very Special Member of the DPN Family as he stops by with his Brother to visit after we spent the day at Typhoon Lagoon.
Have fun!

July 03, 2006 ToV44 - Trapped with Star Bellied SchwarzeneggARRRRRRRs
Now some Schwarzeneggers had bellies with stars,
and some Schwarzeneggers had none upon thars.
I start off the show with a train in the air.
Next there's Schwarzenegger when you sit in the chair.
He seems to be near you when he says "I'll be back!"
Then I wrap it all up as I review Captain Jack.
On the ride with the captain who's from the Black Pearl.
Come along for the ride with with a Star Bellied Earl!
Music - Arnold by Paul Warner (from GarageBand.com)

July 02, 2006 ToV Extra - Trapped'n Jack Sparrow!
Pirates is in soft opening today, so I rushed over there after work and got some audio.
That pretty much sums it up!
This is an extra bit, and the regular show will be up by Monday morning as usual.
Have fun!

June 26, 2006 ToV 43 - Trapped with more crazy stuff and a pink guy on a bike.;
Because it was my birthday this week I sat around the house and did nothing and loved it! So no new park audio this week, and that means that the 3D audio film festival is "paused" for a week. It'll return for next week's show because I'm heading out to play on Wednesday.
So this week I'm continuing my St. Augustine Ripley's Trip with some more messed up goodness. After that I pop back into the wayback machine and head to Episode 9 where I took in ET at Universal Studios.
As quick reminder, I've included my ToV language policy that I laid down while wandering towards the Children's and ET area at USF. ;)
Congrats to DPN forum listener sbabs for winning the first ever Trapped on Vacation contest that no one even knew was happening! Back in the January 8th show I hid a message in the ID3 tags of the show that said "The first one to read this wins 5 Disney Dollars." It took 6 months, but someone found it! So you might want to read the tags because you never know if you'll find something cool! (Get Info under the File Menu in iTunes)
I assure that the ducking and ending at perfect moments in my closing segment was unintentional. I just happened to pause and finish at exact the right times in the song to make it funny, so I left it in as is! (I always pop in the music into GarageBand after I rant so I never know how it's going to sound...) I was going to play the entire song over like I usually do w/o me talking, but the timing was just right so I didn't!

June 19, 2006 ToV 42 - Trapped with shrunken heads and shrunken audiences
This week is part one of Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum in St. Augustine, and part 3 of the ToV 3D film festival. Looking at the title, guess where we're going. Anyways it's late and I have to be at work at 7:30, so I'm going to bed. I might more add to this post tomorrow, I just need sleep now!
Edit: Fixed the link! That's what happens when you post when exhausted!

June 13, 2006 Tov 41 - Trapped with Ogres in a Redwood Trailer
This week we take a take a look at Walt's predictions for entertainment and communication for 2006. After that we head to Universal Studios to take in our third movie in our 3D series, Shrek 3D. Shrek also happens to be my favorite out of all of the 3D movies in Orlando. It's just well done, and the detail in the queue is both well done and hilarious!
At the start, I promise audio from our trip to Ripley's Believe it or Not in St. Augustine, but I ran out of time and just tossed in a teaser at the end of one exhibit. I hate it when my shows are longer than 40 minutes. So I'll toss in more from Ripley's in the future. ;)
