Podcast appearances and mentions of kevin perjurer

On this episode of Creative Culture, I chatted with Kevin Perjurer, the creator of  Defunctland. If you're a fan of meticulously researched and utterly fascinating documentaries about bygone theme parks and themed entertainment, you'll love this episode. It was interesting to talk to him about  being a full-time documentarian, and crafting stories that captivate millions of viewers.  What is the current state of documentaries and why is there such an explosion of them everywhere? Are they getting better or just changing? Kevin and I also talked about the blurred lines between traditional media and YouTube, and what it means to be a creator in today's digital age. Plus, we discuss the nuances of balancing entertainment with historical accuracy, and how Kevin navigates the ever-evolving landscape of content creation. We also explore some of Kevin's most intriguing projects, including his exploration of the mysterious origins of the Disney Channel theme jingle, Kid Cities,  and behind the scenes of the American Idol theme park experience.  Check out  Defunctland on YouTube.

We've all heard the stories about Walt Disney's original ideas for EPCOT the city and how they evolved into EPCOT Center. But how much do we really know about that process following Walt's passing? We might enjoy a straightforward documentary about those 16 years with talking heads explaining the milestones.… Read more... The post 215. Kevin Perjurer of Defunctland on Journey to EPCOT Center: A Symphonic History appeared first on Tomorrow Society.

It's part 1 of our best of 2023! We revisit some of our favorite segments and guests from this past year, and are a bit unhinged doing it. It's fun, though.

Theme park rides stand as one of the few forms of popular entertainment that can vanish with no way to experience them once again. So, how can such a cherished art form be preserved? Kevin Perjurer, the creative mind behind Defunctland, has made it his business to document the fleeting nature of theme parks, both the good and the bad. In this episode, Adam and Kevin discuss how theme parks shape the cultures that give rise to them, the extent to which our own history is molded and packaged for our entertainment, and the pivotal role YouTube historians play in dismantling the everyday myths we tell ourselves.SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/adamconoverSEE ADAM ON TOUR: https://www.adamconover.net/tourdates/SUBSCRIBE to and RATE Factually! on:» Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/factually-with-adam-conover/id1463460577» Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0fK8WJw4ffMc2NWydBlDyJAboutHeadgum: Headgum is an LA & NY-based podcast network creatingpremium podcasts with the funniest, most engaging voices in comedy toachieve one goal: Making our audience and ourselves laugh.
