The Mad Chatters Podcast | Walt Disney World and Around the Disney Universe
This week we look back at two fully-realized theme park projects that ultimately never came to be: one developed by Walt and his Imagineers around the time of the 1964 World’s Fair, just before Walt Disney World began construction in Florida, and the other dreamed up by Michael Eisner and company during the Disney Renaissance of the early 1990s. Join us and guest Courtney Guth as we talk about the Riverfront Square project in St. Louis and Disney’s America theme park in Washington, D.C., the attractions and experiences that were to be included at these locations, and why they ultimately failed. Plus, we travel back to the summer of 2010 to talk about what guests might have experienced during the Summer Nightastic limited-time celebration. We also go “Behind the Magic” of the Norway Pavilion in Epcot by talking about our favorite details and things to see at this World Showcase nation on its 32 anniversary. Buckle up, history nerds. This time-hopping episode is for you!

This week we're joined by Matt Hochberg from www.studioscentral.com and co-host of the WDW Today podcast to celebrate the 20th anniversary of and take a look back at the last 20 years of Disney's Hollywood Studios or Disney-MGM Studios as it was called on opening day. Jonathan will not be joining us this week but we still have lots of news to go over including some exciting additions coming to Disneyland as part of Summer Nightastic, a new WDW related app that's now available for the iPhone and various iPods, the opening of Sanaa at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge Kidani Village, and much more. We'll also get to some more of your email, the AllAbouttheMouseketeer Roll Call, and a special message from Jonathan which might require you to reach for a box of tissues. But for now, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

Should a case be made to get rid of them once and for all?Plus, Hagrid goes behind the backs of Universal Orlando PR and gives CoasterRadio.com an exclusive on the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
