The Muppets In Walt Disney World - A Look Back... and Forward Hello and welcome to The WDW Radio Show - Your Walt Disney World Information Station. I am your host, Lou Mongello, and this is show #251 for the week of December 4, 2011. With the popularity of the recents Muppets movie release, many of us are looking back fondly at our love of the Muppets growing up on TV and in film. But for Walt Disney World fans, the Muppets also had a presence in Disney's Hollywood Studios in addition to MuppetVision 3D for many years. This week, we'll hop aboard my Walt Disney World Wayback machine and look back at the marriage of Disney and the Muppets, The Muppets at Walt Disney World TV special, shows and attractions in the parks, what could have (and should have) been, and the future of the Muppets in the Disney Parks. I'll have the answers and winner of last week's "Where in the World Have You Heard This?" Contest, a few announcements, and then play more of your voicemails at the end of the show.

The Orange Bird and a new Disney Contest Hello and welcome to The WDW Radio Show - Your Walt Disney World Information Station. I am your host, Lou Mongello, and this is show #250 for the week of November 27, 2011. In the past 40 years, we've seen some pretty interesting things at Walt Disney World: A waterskiing Goofy, gunfighters shooting it out in Frontierland, singing fruit, a rapping Mickey and much more. But until recently, many people couldn't recall seeing a character walking around in Adventureland with a giant orange head, leaves for arms and a green stem sticking out of his head. Today, of course, we fondly recall (and miss) the Little Orange Bird, and in this week's show, Jim Korkis and I will take a look back in time at the Sunshine Tree Terrace and it's one-time host (and hostess). We'll explore the origins of the Orange Bird, the Sherman Brothers song, why he and Anita Bryant may have flown the coop, and the recent resurgence of our little orange friend. I'll then pose a question for you to share your thoughts on as well. It's also been way too long since our last contest, so this week, so listen carefully for your chance to win a Disney prize package in my "Where in the World Have You Heard This?" Contest. I’ll have a few announcements, including the date and location of the next Meet of the Month in Walt Disney World, and then play more of your voicemails at the end of the show.

Live Music in Epcot Hello and welcome to The WDW Radio Show - Your Walt Disney World Information Station. I am your host, Lou Mongello, and this is show #249 for the week of November 20, 2011. World Showcase in Epcot affords guests unique opportunities to learn about and experience cultures from across the globe via a promenade that spans just over one mile. And while speaking with Cast Members from those host countries, tasting their food and exploring the pavilions are just a few of the ways to truly get a sense of the culture and history, another way is through their music. This week, we'll look at some of the live musical acts that can be found in Epcot, discuss some of our favorites, offer tips on how to get the most out of experiencing the acts, and ask you to join in the conversation as well. I’ll have a few announcements and then play more of your voicemails at the end of the show.
