Podcasts about Animatronics

Alex Jordan may spend his nine-to-five building animatronics and puppets for places like Universal and Disney, but that's just the beginning of his welding story. After hours, Alex runs his own job shop, dives into 3D printing as a fabrication tool, and shares his knowledge through YouTube and social media. In this episode, we talk about how 3D printers can transform a weld shop, the craftsmanship behind theme park projects like Raptors and parade floats, and how Alex turned a simple county fair project into a 15-year career. We also get into his custom electric pit bike builds, the importance of teaching what you know, and how community events like maker gift exchanges are fueling the next generation of creators. This conversation is full of innovation, hustle, and inspiration — don't miss it!   Arc Junkies Podcast: Instagram: @Arcjunkiespodcast YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@arcjunkiespodcast9253 Email: Show@arcjunkies.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-becker-45407b72?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BKipEwR3uQXCmCjaEfNzo6w%3D%3D Arc Junkies Website: https://arcjunkies.com Arc junkies Merch: https://shop.threadmob.com/arcjunkie/shop/home Underground Metal Works: https://www.underground-metalworks.com/   Friends of the Show: American Welding Society Conferences Pipeline Conference https://www.aws.org/community-and-events/conferences-and-events/pipeline/ Use ARCJUNKIES at Checkout and get a free gift at the event.   Outlaw Leather LLC Outlawleather.com Instagram: @outlawleatherusa Use ARCJUNKIES for 15% off all in-stock leather goods     Everlast Welders Instagram: @everlastwelders  YouTube: Everlast Welders         Online: https://bit.ly/37xJstI Use Codeword ARCJUNKIES at checkout to get upgraded to a free Nova Foot Pedal and TIG Torch with the purchase of any machine that comes with a stock foot pedal and TIG Torch.

Summary In this episode, Shelby and Courtney dive into a variety of topics, starting with their love for coffee and seasonal drinks, particularly the Starbucks Pecan Crunch Oat Milk Latte (#sponsorus). They then transition to discussing the recent Destination D23 event in Orlando, and the latest Disney news, including a humorous encounter with pod listeners at Epcot. The conversation shifts to the emotional challenges of parenting, particularly the first week of daycare for Shelby's son, and wraps up with a discussion on the importance of to-do lists and organization in daily life. In this episode, the hosts discuss various updates and insights related to Disney theme parks, including the Tron ride experience, the collaboration of Nine Inch Nails with Disney, the introduction of a Walt Disney animatronic in the Carousel of Progress, and the upcoming Villains Land. They also delve into the repainting of Cinderella Castle, reflecting on the legacy of Walt Disney and the importance of maintaining the integrity of Disney attractions. Takeaways Coffee preferences - decaf, full caf, seasonal, or standard? D23 events often yield mixed results in news. Meeting listeners unexpectedly can be a surreal experience. The emotional challenges of parenting are universal. To-do lists can help manage overwhelming tasks. Seasonal drinks can evoke strong opinions. Parenting transitions can be bittersweet. Organization can lead to a sense of accomplishment. Unexpected encounters can create lasting memories. Disney news can be both exciting and disappointing.                            The Tron ride experience has immersive visuals and sounds. Theme park delays can affect guest experiences. Nine Inch Nails has collaborated with Disney before. Animatronics are a significant part of theme park attractions. Walt Disney's legacy is being honored in new attractions. Villains Land is generating excitement but lacks detailed updates. Cinderella Castle is getting repainted to its original colors. The repainting of the castle raises questions about its execution. The hosts reflect on the importance of Disney's history.

This week, your favorite retired puppet wranglers stomp into the latex-and-foam wonderland of the 1991 ABC sitcom Dinosaurs—the prehistoric family comedy that was part TGIF hug-fest, part biting social satire, and entirely animatronic absurdity.From Earl Sinclair's mating dance to Baby's wooden spoon, we dig into how Jim Henson's Creature Shop brought the Stone Age to prime time—complete with full-body suits, radio-controlled faces, and enough sweat inside those costumes to fill a tar pit. Along the way, we unearth behind-the-scenes stories, meet the humans inside the dinos, and revisit the finale that traumatized an entire generation of unsuspecting children.It's nostalgia with teeth, puppetry with purpose, and just enough Baby Sinclair to make you flinch.Because even 65 million years later, we're still… not the mama.Join the discussion on our discord! https://discord.gg/JDtWJrhPF6Follow us on twitter @PMoNPodcast and on Instagram and Threads @puppetmastersofnoneFind out more about the puppet masters on our website: https://puppetmastersofnone.wixsite.com/puppetmastersofnoneOriginal Music Composed by Taetro. @Taetro  https://www.taetro.com/Send us a text

✦ If you're looking for your next much-needed laugh, Atlanta comedian Joel Byars has plenty of them ready for you at his "Funny Fridays" comedy showcase. The next event in the series is scheduled for August 22 at the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center and will feature performances by Lace Larrabee, Carlos Rodriguez, and Emily Holden. Byars recently joined WABE arts reporter Summer Evans to talk more about why he's committed to making our Fridays funny. ✦ Last May, when the pizzeria-arcade chain Chuck E. Cheese announced plans to retire its famous animatronic bands, the backlash was swift. After hearing this outcry, the company promised to keep a few of the bands across the nation. You may be surprised to hear that there was an outcry over Animatronics, but the art form, which brings mechanical and electronic figures to life, continues to hold the public's attention. In fact, the University of North Carolina School of the Arts offers a graduate concentration in Animatronics. It's true. If you're a fan of life-like, magical, moving figures with Dead Eyes (Jon's words, not mine), you don't have to travel far to get your fix. City Lights Collective member Wesley Boutilier brings us the story of a Six Flags Over Georgia ride that recently underwent a significant animatronic upgrade. ✦ Local artist Carl Janes knows that making art isn't a solo effort—it's as much about community as it is about creativity. Over the years, he has helped carve out spaces for Atlanta's local music and arts communities to gather, perform, and thrive—including his former East Atlanta home, The Secret Spot, and more recently, his location in Underground, called Inner Space. For his latest endeavor, he has teamed up with local brewery Halfway Crooks to curate a diverse Summer Sunday Concert series, which will run throughout August. City Lights Collective producer Josh Thane recently sat down with Janes learn why he's bringing his Inner Space outdoors. ✦ City Lights Collective member Shane Harrison spends his days at Arts ATL looking for cultural events to share with readers, and he joins us weekly to share highlights. Today, his mix includes Black Writers Weekend 2025, and True Colors Theatre Company's adaptation of Jordan E. Cooper's Ain’t No Mo’. ✦ Artist and music enthusiast, Kosmo Vinyl. He spent several decades immersed in music and began his professional career at London's pioneering indie label, "Stiff Records." In 1979, Kosmo started working exclusively with "The Clash" and stayed by their side until the punk icons disbanded in 1986. Over the years, Kosmo's record collection became legendary. In 2014, he began posting about his favorite releases on social media as part of his series, "Kosmo's Vinyl of the Week," and he joins us weekly to share the stories behind the records he treasures. Today, Kosmo discusses the story behind Ann Peebles’ “I Can’t Stand the Rain.” ✦ The game of Pinball has seen a resurgence in popularity over the last decade, and for those who love the game, August 1 is considered National Pinball Day. City Lights Collective co-host Kim Drobes brings us the story behind the celebration.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Jeff and his pals Julia and Tina talk about 70th birthday week at Disneyland - and what an eventful week it was! Jeff was on property Monday through Friday and has a plethora of reports and reviews, and Tina and Julia were at the resort much of the week as well, so we have a lot to talk about. Jeff's family utilized Lightning Lane Premier Pass for their first full day in the parks, and Jeff reviews the experience, the value, and the important questions to answer before you consider this pricey option. We all were able to watch "Walt Disney - A Magical Life," and we break down the controversy surrounding this brand new show which features an Audio-Animatronic Walt Disney, and offer our own reviews of the attraction. We all also tried the latest version of the World of Color dessert party, and we review the dessert experience as well as the latest World of Color show, "Happiness." All this - and more! I'd love to hear from you! To contact Jeff, email comments@mousetalgia.com.

Walt Disney—A Magical Life opened at Disneyland on July 17, 2025 (the 70th anniversary of Disneyland) in the Main Street Opera House (to be rotated with Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln). With Walt Disney One Man's Dream as the opening sequence, this new attraction features the first-ever Audio-Animatronic figure to depict Walt Disney. On July 15, I had the honor of attending a special media preview of this brand new show with the opportunity to view the show twice plus hear from the Imagineers (Tom Fitzgerald and Jeff Shaver-Moskowitz) and Walt Disney Family Museum representatives (Kristen Komoroske) who worked on this new experience.   In this episode, I'm joined by Jack Kendall from DSNY Newscast to discuss this new attraction, including plenty of honest and detailed analysis about the new Walt Disney Audio-Animatronic and some discussion about the lobby experience (led by Imagineer Kim Irvine) and film sequence.   Thank you to Disneyland for this very special opportunity and for inviting me to attend this media event.   Get bonus content, ad-free episodes, and more at patreon.com/imaginationskyway.   Create your own Disney travel memories with our sponsor KMV Travel.   Subscribe to WDW Magazine and receive 15% off with code SKYWAY when visiting https://www.wdw-magazine.com/shop/?ref=SKYWAY   Tag me and join the conversation below.

Join Erik and Tage this week as they are joined by Dan and JR as they discuss their thoughts seeing the Walt Disney animatronic and the reactions of other fans, what Disney personality they would invite, living or dead, to The Hub Crawl couch and what they would ask them, wether adding Marvel and Star Wars enhances or dilutes Disney, and what Disney animated movie they feel is the hardest to sit through. Support the podcast by going to https://www.thehubcrawl.com/support. Question 1: Now that we've all seen the Walt Disney robot what did they get right? What did they mess up? How are the fans reacting and do you think it's reasonable? Question 2: You get to invite one Disney personality—Imagineer, animator, or executive—living or dead-to sit on The Hub Crawl couch. Who is it, and what three questions must you ask them? (Is three questions too many?) Question 3: As somebody who grew up in the 80s, Disney had what, at least to me, felt like a very defined image that it presented in its works and parks. Colors were vibrant, good and evil were often pretty straight forward, and there was a certain degree of what I would consider “innocent wonder”. in 2009, Disney acquired Marvel. Not to be outdone, they acquired Star Wars in 2012. Both of those properties feel like a departure from their 20th century offerings. Do you feel that the addition of Marvel and Star Wars to the Disney catalog enhances or dilutes what Disney used to be? Question 4: What Disney animated movie do you think is the hardest to sit through? Bonus Question: What perk(s) would you like to see Disney add for MagicKey holders.

Mechanical amusements have long been a mainstay of theme parks and travelling fairs.  In the 1980s, this technology entered the realm of the arcade, most notably through Chuck E. Cheese and since then, has merged with the traditional dark ride to become the interactive dark ride, a mixture of animatronics, motion, lightguns and video games.   Our guest today, John Wood is the head of Sally Corporation, a pioneer of animatronic entertainment and especially the interactive darkride.  John tells us how this industry leader got its start Recorded: September 2024 Video version: https://www.patreon.com/posts/jeff-johannigman-125624209 Get us on your mobile device: Android: https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly92aWRlb2dhbWVuZXdzcm9vbXRpbWVtYWNoaW5lLmxpYnN5bi5jb20vcnNz iOS: https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/video-game-newsroom-time-machine And if you like what we are doing here at the podcast, don't forget to like us on your podcasting app of choice, YouTube, and/or support us on patreon! https://www.patreon.com/VGNRTM Send comments on  Mastodon @videogamenewsroomtimemachine@oldbytes.space Or twitter @videogamenewsr2 Or Instagram https://www.instagram.com/vgnrtm Or https://bsky.app/profile/vgnrtm.bsky.social Or videogamenewsroomtimemachine@gmail.com Links: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sally_Corporation https://www.sallydarkrides.com/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heathkit_H8 https://youtu.be/jjNca1L6CUk?si=tAux1b9ri9ZJ_mdm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Association_of_Amusement_Parks_and_Attractions https://www.sallydarkrides.com/post/remembering-jan-sherman-sally-dark-rides-memorializes-long-time-co-worker-and-friend Recommended Links: The History of How We Play: https://thehistoryofhowweplay.wordpress.com/ Gaming Alexandria: https://www.gamingalexandria.com/wp/ They Create Worlds: https://tcwpodcast.podbean.com/ Digital Antiquarian: https://www.filfre.net/ The Arcade Blogger: https://arcadeblogger.com/ Retro Asylum: http://retroasylum.com/category/all-posts/ Retro Game Squad: http://retrogamesquad.libsyn.com/ Playthrough Podcast: https://playthroughpod.com/ Retromags.com: https://www.retromags.com/ Games That Weren't - https://www.gamesthatwerent.com/ Copyright Karl Kuras

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. In this week's Disney news, Disneyland is getting all of the cool stuff again and Disney World is left with NOTHING. OK, maybe that's a bit of an overreaction, but we really wish Disney World would just get a few of the cool meet and greets Disneyland gets. Disney collectibles can be pretty pricey.  People have sold everything from old ticket books to Walt's signature. And for the right item, people are willing to pay . . . A LOT! But how much is too much for the right Disney collectible? Would you be willing to give up a month of eating at your favorite restaurant for a tea set? Maybe an old animatronic instead of a new car? On this week's show we answer these questions and more as we play a game of would you rather to determine just how much we'd be willing to give up for some of the most obscure and expensive Disney collectibles out there. Submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode. Don't forget to check us out on: -Instagram -Facebook  -Youtube Missing the smell of the parks?
