Dan Sullivan and Gord Vickman share some secrets of teamwork that Dan highlights in his new book, Everyone And Everything Grows. When a crisis hits, your team should be positioned to come out stronger for the challenge. Learn how Strategic Coach® pulls it off, how technology assists, and how an amazing company culture makes the whole thing possible. In This Episode: Video conferencing platforms like Zoom aren't communication tools, they're transportation tools. Competitive internal politics always interfere with company culture and great communication. Build your team so they don't have to spend any energy on defending themselves. At Strategic Coach, when something doesn't work, it's usually not an individual problem but a system problem or a structure problem. There are only two teams you should be on: the winning team or the learning team. At large corporations, everything grinds to a halt because people spend more time trying to avoid mistakes than actually creating things.

In light of the current situation around the world, I think we needed to come together as a podcast family for a bit just to check-in on each other. During this show that was recorded live on Tuesday night, April 7, 2020. During this hour, we discuss where we would purchase gift cards to Disney restaurants to share with friends & family, discuss the cancellation of the Fall Disney College Program, get some "backstage magic" from a former Cast Member and more! If you need a bit of a pick-me-up, this show might do the trick. Thank you sincerely for always being a part of our podcast community. We have something special here and together, we will make it through this stronger than before. Blessings - Mike

Main Entrance Cast: Talking Theme Parks, Musing over Museums, and So Much More!
Welcome to Episode 6 of the Main Entrance Cast. In this episode, Nick and Katie will begin a two-episode examination of perhaps the most unique and intriguing Theme Park in the entire world (and yes, they may be a bit biased) Epcot! Updates: The Main Entrance FastCast is available every weekday on iTunes, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and most major podcast providers. The FastCast is also available for your daily Flash Briefing on Amazon Alexa, so make sure to add the Main Entrance FastCast to your Alexa Skills. We're still working to make our episodes more reasonable in length, and we hope today's episode is a great example of the episode lengths to come. Now, on with the show! Feature Presentation (4:35) What is Epcot and why is it so captivating to its die-hard fans? Well, two die-hard fans, Nick and Katie, are eager to talk about it. But, since a straight discussion of Epcot could go on for weeks, we needed to set some standards to guide the conversation. And so, we're looking at the four stages of Epcot's history as it relates to three guiding principles: technology showcase, foster international fellowship, and redefine the idea of community. In this episode, we're focusing on the first two stages of Epcot: EPCOT the city, and Epcot as it was (Epcot Center). Next episode, we'll finish up the discussion by relating the latter two stages: Epcot, and the Epcot of Tomorrow. Trivia & Wrap Up (1:15:00): Last Episode's Trivia Question: In this episode, we talked about escape rooms and their increasing popularity. On a currently running police comedy television show, a number of main characters also experience and escape from a highly-themed escape room. What is the show? Last Episode's Trivia Answer: Brooklyn Nine-Nine This Episode's Trivia Question: What was the name of the original host of the predecessor for Backstage Magic, the Astuter Computer Review in CommuniCore? If you think you know the answer, drop us a line at connect@mainentrancecast.com. That's it for Episode 5, be sure to check out the Main Entrance FastCast, available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio and most major podcast providers.

Main Entrance FastCast: Theme Parks, Museums, and so much more!
For today’s CreatiCore, we’re going to be talking about the segment’s namesake, Communicore. Designed as a two-in-one pavilion at the heart of Epcot Center’s Future World, Communicore was the community core of the park. While Communicore’s twin structures provided more context and detail about the themes of the Epcot Center pavilions, at its heart, Communicore introduced the public to the new and emerging realm of computers. In fact, Guests could see a presentation that showed them the nerve center of the entire park. Originally called the Astuter Computer Revue, it was quickly replaced with Backstage Magic, featuring hosts Julie and I/O. Another Epcot icon, SMRT-1, also called Communicore East its home. Communicore, from a design standpoint, served many important roles within the park. Today, at least for the near future, but soon to change, the center of the pavilions that used to be Communicore is covered in massive spans of pavement surrounding a large fountain. But initially, this wasn’t the case. There were in fact, a few other water features that resulted in the plaza being significantly tighter. This may seem like an odd design choice, but it was very intentional. Beyond serving as an exhibit and attraction hall, Communicore also acted as an Epcot Center Main Street. The space was actually designed in such a way that there were transitways through the building, with exhibits and sights being on different elevations altogether. To get a sense of what this was like, check out Club Cool before it closes. Communicore was also host to the Stargate and Sunrise Terrace Restaurants. The Centorium, Epcot Center’s main retail location, and Walt Disney World’s largest store at the time, was also housed in Communicore East. The buildings were constructed with expansive window walls. While providing an inviting look into the two buildings, these walls served a more practical purpose as well, as Communicore was designed to be easily expandable. This design trait was the progeny of the original plans for World Showcase, back when it was planned to live closer to the Transportation and Ticket Center. From one side, in this case, the fountain side, Communicore would look sleek and uniform, however, the outer walls could be easily removed, and the building could be expanded to accommodate new attractions. This actually occurred in 1993 and 1994, as Communicore was retired and converted into its successor, Innoventions. Did you know, Communicore was built extra tall to be able to accomodate a future Wedway Peoplemover? True story! With Innoventions, however, came the end of much of what made Communicore so unique. The bright, inviting window walls were blackened, the entire space was flattened to one pedestrian level, and the fountain plaza area was paved. While as a successor, Innoventions was initially successful, with bright flashy sponsors like Sega, AT&T, and IBM, little by little the offerings of the two buildings eroded, leaving behind big awkward empty spaces. The flow of traffic gone, Innoventions was never truly a successor Main Street, instead acting as another warehouse of quickly outdated products. The retail location, now called MouseGear, expanded outside it’s original space to encompass the entire south end of Innoventions East. Coca-Cola would take over exhibit space at the south end of Innoventions West. Finally, with the expansion of Epcot Character Spot into the West building, the days of Innoventions and Communicore were solidly over. In the coming months and years, Communicore West will be demolished, and the East building will become home to a store and restaurant, but ironically, the traffic patterns that were once embraced by the Communicore model seem to be partially returning, bringing back the importance of what was the Communicore courtyard area and reintroducing the Main Street of Epcot.

Be sure to check out some of our previous shows including the first part of this podcast: Retro WDW Podcast: Polynesian Dreams - Part I. Corrections & Listener Mail CorrectionsAfter some introductions, trip updates and welcomes, we get started with some corrections. How offers up a minor correction on his pronunciation of Future Corps and adds a few details to our discussion from last month. Listener Mail Paul wrote in about Backstage Magic at EPCOT Center. This was a show located in Communicore East, near the Energy Exchange. We take you back to this attraction that showcased all of the computers running EPCOT back in the day. This show ran until Innoventions showed up and sounds like one you didn't want to miss. The movie DARYL had a scene in this location as well, so check that out from 1985. Brent wrote in, who is the creative director of Super 78 and host of The Season Past Podcast. He wrote us as a fan, letting us know his crew is binge listening to the show. Check them out and thanks for listening Brent! Kurt Phillips sent us a great group of pics from the Polynesian - amazing folders, stationary ephemera and lots of other neat tidbits. We discuss some of the old services and options at the resorts. Check out our collection and send in your stuff! We also got a solid set of Contemporary ephemera from Mark Brieve. Big thanks to all our friends out there that let us share these memories with you. Thank you for all the emails, tweets and comments you have sent our way. We try to respond to almost everything and do our best to pick unique questions for the show. For questions, comments and concerns, please write us - podcast@retrowdw.com.

We had such a huge listener turnout for Part I - big thanks to everybody who downloaded and listened. This episode focuses on post construction, memories, resort services entertainment and more.How starts us off with a minor correction regarding the construction and the opening dates of each area, which is different than we all thought. The design of the resort is discussed along with the feel back then, when compared to the other resorts on property. Atmosphere plays a big part with this back in the 70s. Everything from the entrance walkway to the lobby are described in detail by How. The Vacation Wonderland restored film shows off how the original doors actually worked. Who doesn't remember that lobby smell?We also go into the sundries shop, barbershop and tons of other amazing features which are no longer present. How has pinpoint accuracy and even some on location scouting to locate these places. You really need to listen to this episode as you are walking around the Polynesian. The mental picture alone though is amazing and How does a great job taking you right back. The fire lighting ceremony was different back then too; learn all about how this has changed over the years. Finally, we get into the church services and how they changed over the years and how they actually worked, up until 2002.How has done a great job with this series. We hope you enjoy it as much as we have had making it and putting all this together for you. Film Restoration Two Families - 1973 Magic Kingdom Restored Footage This month we release this 1973, beautifully restored film called "Two Families". The beginning features some amazingly clear and color corrected footage of the tram waiting area and the parking lot tram itself. The orange is so glorious!The film also includes some amazing shots of 20k Leagues, a monorail ride, The Contemporary Resort, and in park footage. The ending shows off an afternoon parade with extra large Mickey hats. The restoration on this one came out so nice, we hope you really enjoy it.
