While we continue on a pause in new episodes, I figured I could do a repackaged episode where it's edited to just be the main topic. All the before banter has been removed so you can get right to the episode's headline topic. Joel, Beth, and Matt explore Rivers of America of yesteryear and today, as well as go into detail of Paris's counterpart, The Rivers of the Far West.

We go full Christmas on our latest Disney TV special rewind. This time we go back to 1976 as we watch the zany, and at times ludicrous Christmas in Disneyland special. Sandy Duncan returns with a more tame performance from her earlier specials, but you have to hear about crazy ol' gramps. As bizarre as it was, the special contains a ton of heart and holiday cheer.Additional NotesThis episode was recorded before California implemented a Stay at Home order.

Thanks for tuning into OFF HARBOR & MAIN's Time and Place Series. In this episode we take a look at Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, but not ANY version, but rather “The Walt Disney Story Featuring Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln: The Journey to Gettysburg” aka the Civil War version or the binaural version. We start from Lincoln's 1964 New York World's Fair beginnings through today.This entire 12-minute show was done with the use of headphones with binaural sounds to make it feel like you are actually experiencing a haircut, meet Abraham Lincoln, head into battle and see Mr. Lincoln's Gettysburg address.'Lincoln' is hopefully an attraction Disney fans continue to cherish and hold dear to their hearts. It's a reminder of how its technological advancements have paved the way for so many more. It's honoring and recognizing the American laborers to the development and achievements of the United States. It still speaks to today and the spirit of America as the Gettysburg address is immortal. These words remain just as powerful today as they were in Lincoln's time.Enjoy a rare look at this short lived version from the early 2000s.Special thanks to Brian (Brisal73) who originally filmed this for RemainSeated.com.YouTube Companion Video-------------------Interact:Email - podcast@offharborandmain.comTwitter - @offharborInstagram - @offharborFacebook - Off Harbor & MainWebsite - OffHarborAndMain.com

On this 4th of July, we found it only fitting to present Act II of the Carousel of Progress. Filled with electricity, fancy appliances, blown fuses and a town's Independence Day celebration, the ‘Roaring 20s' was a great time to be optimistic of the future.Hello and thanks for listening to Off Harbor and Main's Time and Place Series - On today's visit we thought it was fitting to celebrate our Independence Day with a little optimism from John at Magic Kingdom's Carousel of Progress. While John has seen a few changes over the years, his message remains the same. Through numerous changes from the show's days as Progressland at the 1964 New York World's Fair to its debut at Disneyland just 7 months after Walt's passing, it was then off to Disney World where it had a period when the show used a different Sherman Brothers tune focusing on “Now” being the Best Time of Your Life.Our favorite little tune wouldn't return until November of 1993 along with a new Tomorrowland boasting The Future that Never Was.

Come along with us for a little Disney California Adventure armchair imagineering plus a discussion on what we would love to see happen to the now defunct end of Downtown Disney. We also couldn't hold back from providing our initial reactions to hearing Princess and the Frog will be taking over Splash Mountain at the state-side parks.Interact:Email - podcast@offharborandmain.comTwitter - @offharborInstagram - @offharborYouTube - Off Harbor & MainFacebook - Off Harbor & MainWebsite - OffHarborAndMain.comThe Hosts:Joel - Twitter & IG: @TangaroaJoelBeth - Twitter & IG: @PixieDustVibesMatt - Twitter: @ST1401toEndor | IG: @LightSpeedToEndorDerick - Twitter: @Esplanerd

Today the crew go over their favorite Disney theme park queues and try not to tease each other too much over the attractions that still scare them today. We later discuss the ‘pun-filled' Paradise Pier 1.0, what we miss most about 2.0, and explore if there are any redeeming qualities of Pixar Pier. This one is hopefully “Fun in the Sun for Everyone!”Interact:Email - podcast@offharborandmain.comTwitter - @offharborInstagram - @offharborYouTube - Off Harbor & MainFacebook - Off Harbor & MainWebsite - OffHarborAndMain.comThe Hosts:Joel - Twitter & IG: @TangaroaJoelBeth - Twitter & IG: @PixieDustVibesMatt - Twitter: @ST1401toEndor | IG: @LightSpeedToEndorDerick - Twitter: @Esplanerd
Enjoy a trial run of the Off Harbor & Main Podcast - Time and Place Series. We wanted to try something a little different where we simply play some recorded audio from the parks. It's nothing inventive here, but I thought today was fitting to play some classic audio from Disneyland's Flag Retreat with the original Disneyland Band as we honor those that made the ultimate sacrifice.
On this week's show we jump on the elephant in the room and discuss what we would like to see at the parks to make us feel comfortable for a safe return. To lighten things up, we also talk spirit jerseys (yay or nay?) and Disney+. Joel's wife even makes a surprise appearance as we debate Mrs. Knott's chicken.Interact:Email - podcast@offharborandmain.comTwitter - @offharborInstagram - @offharborYouTube - Off Harbor & MainFacebook - Off Harbor & MainWebsite - OffHarborAndMain.comThe Hosts:Joel - Twitter & IG: @TangaroaJoelBeth - Twitter & IG: @PixieDustVibesMatt - Twitter: @ST1401toEndor | IG: @LightSpeedToEndorDerick - Twitter: @Esplanerd
