Sujets traités : L'heure est au bilan pour les Jeux Paralympiques de Paris 2024. Les dix jours de compétition ont été marqués par de belles performances alsaciennes, qui ont ramené 7 médailles. Trois en or, trois en argent et une en bronze. Ces dernières ont été acquises grâces aux succès en or de Jules Ribstein en para-triathlon, Benoit Chevreau en cécifoot et de Joseph Fritsch en relais handbike. Deux médailles d'argent ont aussi été remportérs en paracyclisme par Johan Quaile, et encore deux autres, d'argent et de bronze en paranatation, grâce au Sélestadien Hector Denayer.Europa Park élu meilleur parc du monde pour la 9ème fois. Ce week-end, le parc d'attractions allemand a remporté le titre de « meilleur parc de loisirs au monde » aux Golden Ticket Awards et son manège, le Voltron Nevera, a remporté le prix du meilleur nouveau grand huit au monde. C'est une première depuis 2022 où Walt Disney World avait été élu. La cérémonie de remise des prix a eu lieu aux Etats-Unis, la variété et la qualité des attractions ont été soulignées. L'Alsace sera mise à l'honneur sur TF1. Monsieur Parizot, le fidèle campeur de Camping Paradis, aura droit à son épisode spécial lors d'un épisode inédit tourné en Alsace, entre Colmar et Obernai. Personnage emblématique de la série, il joue un campeur originaire de Colmar et est connu pour son caractère tatillon. L'intrigue mêlera balades à vélo et enquête après un accident impliquant l'un de ses amis. Le tournage a en grande partie était réalisé dans un château à Saint-Pierre. Découverte insolite à Colmar. Ce dimanche, des promeneurs sont tombés nez-à-nez avec un serpent exotique. Les pompiers sont intervenus à proximité du parking du parcours vita du Neuland vers 17h. Ce serpent aux couleurs rouges était enroulé autour d'un arbre, échappé ou vraisemblablement abandonné par son propriétaire d'après les pompiers. L'animal a ensuite été confié à un connaisseur qui va l'examiner pour juger son état de santé. A Colmar toujours, le Musée d'Histoire naturelle et d'Ethnographie est à la recherche de bénévoles. A l'occasion des Journées Européennes du Patrimoine, ce dernier ouvrira ses portes le dimanche 22 septembre, de 10h à 12h et de 14h à 18h. Pour accueillir les visiteurs, le musée recherche des bénévoles le temps d'une heure, d'une demi-journée ou de toute la journée.

In today's episode, we discuss Intimidator at Carowinds in Charlotte, NC. Despite the fact that enthusiasts like to trash on this coaster and it gets forgotten about while living in the shadow of Fury 325 and Intimidator 305, this 232-ft B&M hyper is one of the best coasters at Carowinds and the ninth-tallest coaster in the country. The coaster has consistently ranked in the top 30 steel coasters in the Golden Ticket Awards for over a decade, and features some unique elements not seen on other hypercoasters. Hate it or love it, Intimidator is a thrilling coaster that keeps the crowds coming back for more. Check out our second podcast, Coaster Conversations here.

In today's episode, we will be discussing Wildcat at Hersheypark in Hershey, PA. Though the ride has developed a reputation for being rough and uncomfortable, when it opened in 1996, it was revolutionary and extremely thrilling. Wildcat was also the first coaster ever manufactured by legendary coaster manufacturer Great Coasters International, or GCI. The coaster was ranked number 11 in the Golden Ticket Awards' wooden coaster rankings in 1998, and remained in the top 50 for 12 years. Even though the attraction is mostly forgotten about now with additions like SkyRush and Candymonium, Wildcat is an important part of the park's history, and marked the beginning of Hersheypark's transition into a destination amusement park.

In today's episode, we will be discussing Powder Keg at Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO. Though it often gets overlooked in the industry, Powder Keg is widely praised for its surprisingly intense launch, great airtime, and unique layout. Many enthusiasts have said that although Silver Dollar City does not have a hypercoaster, Powder Keg sort of fills that gap in their lineup. Powder Keg was nominated for the Golden Ticket Awards' best new ride of 2005 but lost out to Hades at Mt. Olympus. In its opening year, it was ranked number 40 in the steel coaster rankings by the Golden Ticket Awards, but fell out of the top 50 in 2007. Though Outlaw Run and Time Traveler have certainly become the star attractions of the park, Powder Keg continues to draw in large crowds, and remains a staple of the Silver Dollar City experience.

On this episode we finally discuss our 2018 trip to Holiday World in Santa Claus Indiana for Holiwood Nights, which was themed to the movie Caddyshack, renamed Coastershack. We cover the Golden Ticket Awards looking at the winners and possible controversies. We also discuss the terrific opportunity to be interviewed on Holiday World's Podcast at the end of the summer. Without Andrew's knowledge, I played his performance from last winter's talent show at his school where he played and sang, "I'm Looking through You" by the Beatles. This was inspired by us listening to them at Splashin' Safari at Holiday World last year and we give credit through about three degrees of separation to Will Koch who loved the Beatles.
