Podcasts about Wonderful World

Sorry as I was gone this last week. I visited Disneyland's 70th anniversary a couple of weeks ago. There is so much to talk about when it comes to this celebration of "The Happiest Place on Earth". But the primary reason I felt drawn to come at this time was the new show at the Opera House on Main Street. I feel there is not one but two stories about the new attraction: Walt Disney: A Magical Life. This is of course the highly sophisticated and highly controversial animatronic show of Walt Disney. And I have much to say about that show experience. And to understand all of this, you have to understand efforts made earlier to help people relate to Walt Disney, to include The Walt Disney Story, One Man's Dream and even Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. It's a deep dive review for sure. But there is a larger conversation about how Disney is reconnecting more people to what they once loved in their youth, experiences that foster ties. It's as if Disney has finally realized that their history, their heritage, and their stories really do matter. And they seem to be doing much more moving forward to building on that theme. This podcast looks at Walt Disney's Magical Life and so much more. _______________________________________________________ More Disney Insights can be found below!

Recognized in 2020 as one of Wine Enthusiast's "40 Under 40," Brenae is a true force in the industry, wearing many hats as a vineyard manager, vineyard consultant, wine entrepreneur, and the visionary brand owner of Violets Paradise. In this insightful episode, Brenae takes us back to her roots, sharing her farming background and remarkable journey to becoming a vineyard manager for Gallo wineries' famed Monte Rosso Sonoma vineyards. Discover how a surprising passion for Apothic Red sparked her very first internship, setting her on a path to success. Brenae opens up about crucial topics such as diversity and sustainability in agriculture, offering her unique perspective on these vital issues. Prepare to be charmed as she discusses the heartwarming inspiration behind her brand, Violets Paradise, which blossomed from her love for her vineyard dog, Violet Mae, found at www.violetsparadise.com. The conversation then turns to the exquisite wines of Violets Paradise, delving into their production, distinct styles, and even her sparkling offering, with tips on how you can get your hands on them to try! Listen intently as Brenae passionately articulates her love for farming and shares her thoughts on how the wine world promotes (or sometimes overlooks) the agricultural side of wine marketing. Finally, Kim and Mark explore Brenae's impactful initiatives, including the Violets Paradise Scholarship and the Veraison program. And for a unique perspective, find out if, as a grape seller, she ever finds herself disappointed in the wines made from her prized grapes. Cheers, Kim & Mark

This weekend Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away kicked off its inaugural run with two nights of dress rehearsals and an opening on Sunday. This new parade, long awaited and hoped for by Walt Disney World fans is simply magical. It's not perfect, but it's simply beautiful and is what has been needed for so long since its ancestors, The Main Street Electrical Parade and SpectroMagic had long parted. We visit this parade and talk all the details of what makes it work--and at times, not so perfectly work. It's a must-see event at Walt Disney World and a welcome tradition for years to come. And my belief is, that it will only get better over time. So join us as we review Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away!   ____________________________________________________________ More Disney Insights can be found below!

"Third time's the charm" is a saying that suggests perhaps the third attempt will be more successful than the two prior failures. By no means has the past two versions of Test Track been failures. But it seems like this is a huge opportunity to learn from the previous experiences and truly come up with something that could be loved for years to come. We chart out not only all three, but also talk about its forefather, The World of Motion. On our journey I pick up my friend and colleague Nick Grande, to talk about our experience testing Test Track, where it works, where it doesn't and where it retreads. Great news! There is much to love about this new version. And while we've seen people either completely love or hate it, we'll give you a complete sense of how you can get both responses. Join us for Test Track 3.0. Is the third time the charm? ____________________________________________________________ More Disney Insights can be found below!

In this episode of Hangin' at the Hangar Bar, Scott and Candice get personal—and a little generational. From late-bloomer Disney Adult origin stories to Sunday nights with The Wonderful World of Disney, they explore how Disney fandom has evolved (and exploded) across Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z.This one's got everything: VHS tapes, spring roll cart loyalty, Disney Channel deep cuts, Splash Mountain discourse, park rituals, Instagram snacks, and that one time the Country Bears caused memory loss. Along the way, they reflect on how each generation experiences the parks, what we value, and how fandom culture has shifted with tech, expectations, and churro-induced outrage.

Nico Martins, former high-achieving corporate leader and Cosmic Tower spokesperson, reveals how this revolutionary technology is restoring balance to our lives and our planet.After his mother's passing triggered an unexpected spiritual awakening, Nico discovered that conventional science acknowledges only about 2% of our reality. The remaining 98% exists beyond the speed of light in the subtle realms where everything connects through resonance. This understanding became the foundation for his work with the Cosmic Tower – a device that mimics nature's sacred power spots by creating a toroidal energy field using special rainbow water and crystals.Unlike conventional EMF protection that attempts to block harmful frequencies, the Cosmic Tower works through harmonization, changing the quality of energy fields to benefit living organisms. Users report profound improvements in sleep, mental clarity, and overall wellbeing. The technology creates what Nico calls "a personal sacred power spot" in your home, similar to the energetic qualities found at ancient temple sites built on the Earth's natural power centers.The most remarkable aspect is the tower's range of influence. While personal-sized models harmonize approximately 300 feet around your home, the larger 7-8 foot towers can positively affect areas with a radius of 250-310 miles. With over 800 large towers throughout Europe and a growing network in the United States, this technology is building what many call a "grid of light" to support humanity's evolution during these transformative times.As Nico explains, "Don't worry so much about the future. We have the solutions to every problem we have." The Cosmic Tower represents one such solution – a bridge between ancient wisdom and modern challenges that reminds us of our inherent connection to nature and our ability to create harmony in a chaotic world.Ready to experience this remarkable technology for yourself?

June 28, 1928. Louis Armstrong is in the studio recording what he hopes will be another hit. His career is on the rise, but he's not a household name yet. But he's about to lay down a track – “West End Blues” – that won't just change his career, but the entire genre of jazz.  But Armstrong didn't compose “West End Blues” – it was written by his mentor, a man only remembered by people who are really into the history of jazz, a cornet player named Joe “King” Oliver. Armstrong records this song likely as a favor to this father figure, someone who set him on the path to becoming an American icon. Oliver might be forgotten by many, but his role is undeniable. Before “What a Wonderful World” or “Hello Dolly,” how did Louis Armstrong get his start following King Oliver around New Orleans? And how did the complicated, sometimes fractured relationship with his mentor give rise to this legendary career? Special thanks to Ricky Riccardi, director of research collections at the Louis Armstrong House Museum in Queens, New York, and author of several books on Armstrong, including his most recent, Stomp Off, Let's Go: The Early Years of Louis Armstrong.

It is time to cover the second Pooh featurette, Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day. This would be considered the Walt Disney's final work with Disney Animation as he passed in 1966. While this would release in 1968 and take home the Oscar for Best Cartoon Short Subject in 1969, the majority of this project was overseen by Walt himself in the early production of the Pooh project. Watch us on YouTube: www.youtube.com/@makeitmagicalpodInstagram: @makeitmagicalpodSupport the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/MakeitmagicalpodSupport the show and Buy Us a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/makeitmagicalUse our code MAGICALPOD20 for 20% off your next order at Park Hop TeesUse our code MAGICAL10 for 10% off your next order at Crowned AthleticsUse our code MAGICAL15 for 15% off your next order at Magic Candle CompanyGrab some Disney books from our Amazon StorefrontEmail us anytime at:  makeitmagicalpod@gmail.com

Welcome to our ongoing celebration of Disneyland's 70th anniversary. In many ways, Adventureland is truly the most immersive of all the lands of Disneyland. And yet, from a pedestrian space, it's perhaps one of the smallest. If you're just walking through it you can go from entrance to exit in about a minute. Unless of course Fantasmic! is going on in New Orleans Square and Fireworks are getting ready on Main Street. Then it's one of the most congested places on the map. And yet, day or night, Adventureland is full of tropical wonder and a jungle of detail. From the Enchanted Tiki Room to the Adventureland Treehouse; From the exotic Jungle Cruise to the high thrills of Indiana Jones Adventure. Join us as we celebrate the amazing True-Life Adventures of Disneyland's Adventureland. ____________________________________________________________ More Disney Insights can be found below!

Something happened over the weekend that I probably never quite envisioned. And neither did thousands of guests who always found time to spend a few moments with Jim Henson's Muppet-Vision 3D. We celebrate this film, and its creator, sharing some insights of how all this came to be. We'll take a look at the Muppets over the years as they've come to be a part of The Walt Disney World Resort. We'll talk about all of the components that made up Muppet Courtyard, and what made Muppet-Vision 3D so really special. Join us as we commemorate this attraction, its setting and consider both its past and future. It's a rousing 3 hour finale, but we're trying to keep it around 40 minutes. ____________________________________________________________ More Disney Insights can be found below!

No one writes a song like Disney - here are our favorites by state and generation. Why is Gen X not on the list?! Nielsen is now reporting streaming, so it's no surprise that Netflix tops the list of the most watched TV shows this year. The Knicks won, so the series continues.

GS#386 May 28, 2013: From Touring to Teaching, John “Lag” Erickson has seen golf from all sides and is concerned that the art of ball striking is disappearing. He contends that today's highly advanced research to make clubs more forgiving is ruining the ability to become a great ball striker.  Even the greatest players of today struggle when handed persimmon clubs, nor could they compete with the pre-metal club pros. It's not just touch, but the sound of hitting balls has changed for the worst. Are you more interested in scoring than ball striking? Jon thinks you may be missing the point. He also says that the USGA and R&A hate golf.  For more, check out John's website at AdvancedBallStriking.com. Jon returns for Part 2 of our conversation in a Members Only episode to discuss his theories of instruction that teaches the swing from impact backwards. John referred to the Shell's Wonderful World of Golf classic matchup of Hogan vs. Snead.

I was very excited when Alexis said yes to being a guest on the podcast. I really enjoyed the work she shared on Instagram and looked forward to getting to know her better. Now, you get that same chance. We've got a great conversation that spans "the big 3" (as dubbed by me), Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars. We start off with Disney, throwing it all the way back to when the Disney channel was a pay TV channel. Alexis talks about some of her first experiences with Disney, like "The Wonderful World of Disney", the movies and TV shows (including a surprising favorite movie). Plus, Alexis talks about Disney Cruises, why they mean so much to her and her family, and the ship she's excited to sail on. From there, we head into the Marvel Universe. Spider-Man and the X-Men movies were her early start into the fandom. Then her introduction to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We talk about some of her favorite movies and characters, why she was forced to read Civil War, and what she's looking forward to in the MCU in the future (this was recorded prior to Thunderbolts releasing). Then we jump to lightspeed to a Galaxy Far, Far Away, and talk Star Wars. From her early experiences and where she got her start in the fandom. Movies, TV shows, and more are all talked about. Plus, we talk about Hayden Christensen and a picture she took with him at a convention. We wrap up with talking about the creative work that Alexis creates and shares on her social media side. We talk about how she first got started, what she shares and why, her goals for this year, and what you can expect to see.
