The Wonderful World of Wine (WWW) Episode 311 Hosts Kim Simone and Mark Lenzi explore all things wine with you! The Liquid Jazz Experience with Inventor Michael Fors In this episode, Kim and Mark dive into the art of aeration with Michael Fors, a Massachusetts-based wine inventor and the creator of The Liquid Jazz Experience. Michael shares the fascinating journey of how a background in home winemaking and a simple trip to the beach sparked the creation of a revolutionary, patented decanter and glassware system. Inside the Episode From Vines to Inventions: Michael discusses his roots in home winemaking and how his hands-on experience with the "life" of wine led him to seek a better way to express its hidden notes. The "Beach Eureka" Moment: Discover how the natural motion of the ocean inspired Michael to move away from traditional swirling and toward the "rocking" motion that defines his brand. Visualizing the Design: Michael describes his unique decanter and aerating wine glasses in detail. Learn about the "note-opening ridges" at the base of the decanter that create a cascading "wave" effect to speed up oxidation without losing delicate aromas. The Science of Decanting: Kim breaks down the "why" behind decanting—from softening harsh tannins in young reds to allowing older vintages to shed sediment and breathe. The Hands-On Test: Kim and Mark share their personal experience meeting Michael and the results of their "test drive" using the rocking decanter and glasses. The Rocking Revolution: * Rocking vs. Swirling: Michael explains why rocking the wine is a more efficient and gentler way to aerate than the traditional stem-swirl. The Rocking Stand: A look at his invention of a specialized stand that brings a theatrical and functional element to restaurant service. The Inventor's Path: Michael provides a "behind-the-scenes" look at the patent process and the uphill battle of convincing traditional wineries to embrace a device that fundamentally changes the profile of their wine. Product Details & Where to Buy The Liquid Jazz Experience is designed to make wine "hit all the right notes" in minutes rather than hours. Website: www.liquidjazzexperience.com Cost & Availability: Michael discusses pricing for the Rocking Wave Decanter and Aerating Glasses, and where you can pick them up for your own collection. "You will hear the passion of a true Massachusetts inventor throughout this episode. It's time to stop swirling and start rocking." Cheers Kim and Mark

Katharine Heller, KATG guest for well over a decade, returns to help Keith celebrate 21 years of podcasting. The duo reminisce on the Keith and The Girl tour as well as discuss the states of the unions, personal and national. They talk about Kristi Noem's firing and her fleecing of America, the KATG tour, Predator: Badlands, and having sex with A.I. It's very personal, fun, funny, and heartbreaking. After all, God needed The Gimp.

Today's podcast is a busy one, because Walt Disney World is a busy place. We begin with the most popular theme park in the world as we check out construction challenges big and bigger. Disney's Hollywood Studios is in major construction mode as well, with three big construction projects and even a few minor ones. We check all of them out.

We take a look at this not only on our podcast, but we look at all three projects on our YouTube page.

If Disneyland is the Happiest Place on Earth, then Fantasyland is in Marty Sklar's words, "The Happiest Kingdom of Them All". He goes on to say that "Here in the 'happiest kingdom of them all,' you can journey with Snow White through the dark forest to the diamond mine of the Seven Dwarfs; flee the clutches of Mr. Smee and Captain Hook with Peter Pan; and race with Mr. Toad on his wild auto ride through the streets of old London Town. Dumbo, the elephant with aerodynamic ears, will take you on a flight high above Fantasyland, while the haughty Caterpillar of Alice in Wonderland carries you down the Rabbit Hole into the ...Tulgey Wood. In colorful Dutch canal boats or the Casey Jr. Circus train, you'll journey through Storybook Land to see the homes of the Three Little Pigs, Pinocchio's Village, and Cinderella's Castle."

Georgie Newbery is chair of Flowers From The Farm and founder of Common Farm Flowers, one of the first of the new artisan flower farmers to establish in the UK.A small scale flower farm and educator, the farm, established in Somerset in 2010, grows up to 100,000 stems annually without the use of chemicals,Newbery is set to feature at RHS Chelsea Flower Show this May in the Great Pavilion where she will present the first representation of a flower farm at the show, showcasing Ranunculus, also for the first time.She hopes the display will "advocate for flower farmers" and inspire them to perhaps start growing flowers themselves. One of her Chelsea funders is peat-free compost supplier Sustain - and Newbery, as a peat-free flower farm from the start, says there is no excuse for using peat "just because it makes life easier for me". She also believes she can "demonstrate that it's easy to grow peat-free".While she fully understands the difficulty and cost for larger commercial growers of switching their nurseries to peat-free systems, she says "everything we do, we make a choice... we choose to learn how to use other kinds of compost, because it's possible, and it's not breaking the planet".Newbery talks about the operation she runs at the farm, how she manages to grow successfully without chemicals, and her experience with peat-free compost, products, techniques and adaptations. She revels in the idea of the flower farm as a reservoir of life and biodiversity that will act as "innoculation stations" that, come the end of the world, could seed the desert green landscapes surrounding them.As well as growing flowers Newbery runs workshops and demonstrations on propagation and seed-saving, such as how to design a cut flower patch. Weddings and funerals account for most of her cut flower sales. Customers there usually come through word of mouth, she says, often "because they want something that has come from a garden".Newbery has a distinctive philosophy of business and in mentoring small businesses. She encourages "the stepping away from the 'more for the sake of more' model. The key, she says, is to work out "what your 'enough' is". If you work out what your minimum need is, modest or luxurious, "whatever it is...then work out how to build a business that will pay for it". And she is fierce in her support of other small business owners who want to make a good living supplying a high quality product without endlessly having to expand. Asked about her "flowers of the future" she says "seed sovereignty" should be the focus, with locally-grown seed, adapted to UK conditions more likely to provide "bigger, stronger" plants compared to imported options.A new edition of her book "The Flower Farmers's Year" is out in May 2026.

Mit „What a Wonderful“ World hat der renommierte Kurator Udo Kittelmann in Los Angeles eine Präsentation der Videokunstsammlung von Julia Stoschek kuratiert, die Filmgeschichte und Gegenwart in einem Parcours im historischen Variety Arts Theatre in Downtown LA zusammenführt. In dieser Folge des WELTKUNST-Podcasts „Was macht die Kunst?“ spricht er mit Lisa Zeitz über bewegte Bilder als emotionalen und politischen Resonanzraum. Das von ihm als „audiovisual poem“ bezeichnete Projekt bringt frühe Filmklassiker und zeitgenössische Videoarbeiten in einen vielschichtigen Dialog und entfaltet sich über mehrere Stockwerke des historischen Theatergebäudes. Im Gespräch geht es um Film und Videokunst als Spiegel unserer Gegenwart, um die emotionalen und politischen Resonanzen bewegter Bilder – und um die Frage, wie Kunst es vermag, Zweifel, Hoffnung und die Widersprüche unserer Zeit erfahrbar zu machen. Der WELTKUNST-Podcast „Was macht die Kunst?“ wird in Partnerschaft mit Volkswagen Group Culture produziert.

Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is the flagship hotel of Walt Disney World, and one of the premiere resorts among Disney owned hotels. Nearing its 40th year of operation in 2028, and having been through a number of major remodeling changes, how does this signature property compare? I've invited former Disney resort leader, Vance Morris, to spend some time with me on site where we look at the many offerings of this unique hotel, so proximate to Magic Kingdom. We take the time to consider the performance and challenges of its Cast, its grand Victorian setting, the processes which support a Disney-owned resort operation, as well as its many services and amenities. Is it worth the price? Let's discuss as we provide you an operational review of Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. ____________________________________________________ Disney Insights YouTube Page--Check it out and subscribe.

In this powerful message, “30 Minutes to Change the World,” we continue our series *The Wonderful World of the Apocalypse* by diving into Revelation 8:1–5 and exploring how God weaves the prayers of His people into His cosmic redemptive plan.Drawing on the Old Testament background behind Revelation's imagery—especially the “day of the Lord” and the call for all flesh to be silent before God (Habakkuk 2:20; Zephaniah 1:7; Zechariah 2:13)—we look at what it means that “there was silence in heaven for about half an hour” (Revelation 8:1). We consider how this “half hour” functions like the broken “three and a half” of Revelation 11–13 (cf. Daniel 7:25; 12:7), symbolizing an interruption in time: the end feels near, but is mercifully delayed (2 Peter 3:9–10).From there, the message unpacks how the seventh seal opens into the seven trumpets (Revelation 8:2–6), and how this delay is not a “bug” in God's plan, but a feature of His patience and desire for repentance (Ezekiel 18:23, 32; 1 Timothy 2:3–4; 2 Peter 3:9). Far from being about God trying to get the church out of the world, Revelation shows God determined to bring heaven into the world through the faithful witness and prayers of His people (Matthew 6:9–10; Acts 1:8).Central to this message is the vivid temple imagery of the golden censer and the altar of incense (Revelation 8:3–4), echoing the tabernacle pattern in Exodus 25–30 and the altar of incense in Exodus 30:1–10. We connect these themes to Psalm 141:2 (“Let my prayer be counted as incense before you”) and the priestly ministry fulfilled in Christ, our great High Priest (Hebrews 4:14–16; 7:23–27; 8:1–5). The prayers of “all God's people” (Revelation 8:3–4)—not just the martyrs of Revelation 6:9–11, but the entire church—rise before God like incense, joining heaven's worship scene in Revelation 4–5 and the countless multitude of Revelation 7:9–12.The message emphasizes three key truths about prayer:1. **Prayer is not performative**     Prayer is not merely a tool for self-regulation or stress management; it is real communion with the living God who hears and responds (Psalm 34:15–18; Matthew 7:7–11; 1 John 5:14–15). Our prayers actually “reach” God and are taken up into His purposes (Revelation 5:8; 8:3–4).2. **Prayer is sacrificial**     Using the language of Old Testament sacrifice (Leviticus 1–7; Romans 12:1), we see that God is pleased by the costly choice to pray instead of sleep, scheme, worry, or seek revenge (Philippians 4:6–7; 1 Peter 5:6–7). Daniel's commitment to prayer in Babylon (Daniel 6:10–23) and Jesus' teaching on secret prayer (Matthew 6:5–6) illustrate how God honors and rewards faithful, hidden prayer.3. **Prayer is purposeful**     When the angel hurls fire from the altar to the earth (Revelation 8:5), the thunder, lightning, and earthquake recall God's presence at Sinai (Exodus 19:16–19) and the throne-room scene in Revelation 4:5. The message presses the point: the fire that falls on the earth comes from the altar of prayer. God's judgments and interventions in history are pictured as directly connected to the prayers of His people (Luke 18:1–8; Acts 4:23–31; James 5:16–18).Through this lens, we revisit the contest on Mount Carmel (1 Kings 18:20–39), where God sends fire in response to Elijah's simple, faith-filled prayer, exposing idols and turning Israel's heart back—at least for a time. Likewise, the trumpet judgments of Revelation 8–11 are aimed at shaking people out of idolatry and into repentance (Revelation 9:20–21; 11:13), not at arbitrary destruction.Along the way, the message reviews the flow of Revelation so far:- The Lamb's worthiness

The suitcase zippers are straining, work piled up all week, and a Disney Magic cruise is hours away. Perfect time to hit rewind to January 2022! We're taking you back to where our show began, re-airing our very first recording, and reintroducing the two nerds behind the microphones: Alicea and Nathan, high school sweethearts who moved from the East Coast to the Seattle area and accidentally became Disney adults.We unpack the numbers that shape our point of view: 14 Disney trips since 2009, 127 nights in Disney stays, and 11 cruises—two of them Panama Canal crossings, one finishing as the world was closing down. You'll hear the earliest sparks that made Disney stick, from a drumline turning onto Main Street with the castle dead ahead to the Wonderful World of Disney and Mousercise on vinyl. Then we rapid-fire through our favorites with practical detail: why Haunted Mansion still haunts us, why Rise of the Resistance feels more like cinema than a queue, and how PeopleMover earns its “underrated” crown. We talk DVC stays at Riviera and Aulani, the intimacy of the Disney Wonder, Garden Grill breakfasts that feel personal, and the eternal Dole Whip vs. churro standoff.This is also a map for what came next. We share how we keep up with Disney news without parroting headlines, how we'll handle topics like Genie+ only after firsthand use, and why our goal is to deliver weekly, focused episodes that help you plan smarter trips without losing the joy. Expect honest takes, usable tips, and plenty of park and cruise wisdom gathered from real itineraries. Have a question or a hot take?

It's hard for even the most devout Disney Apologist to forgive what was the original Disney's California Adventure. With a troubled budget from the start, and perhaps the wrong theme for millions of people already living in California, this failed on so many levels when it came out the gate. It certainly didn't help that it was being built across arguably the greatest park ever built. And yet in the shadows of Disneyland, there is really something magical about Disney California Adventure and with time and investment, it has come around to being the 5th most popular theme park in North America, behind Magic Kingdom, Disneyland, Epcot & Disney's Hollywood Studios, and yet ahead of Disney's Animal Kingdom, and every Universal Busch Gardens, Sea World and Six Flags park in the country. It's been a long 25 years, but with big new attractions coming, Disney California Adventure stands to compete in big ways moving forward.

In overviewing 2026 I said that the naming of a new CEO would be the most important milestone of the year for Disney. In truth, it may be the biggest moment of the decade. Today, February 3rd 2026, The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors announced that, in a unanimous vote held on Monday, it elected Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D'Amaro to become Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company. We look first at the context of that announcement, and the specifics behind it, to include the promotion of Dana Walden, Co-Chairman of Disney Entertainment into a new role. We'll see what others have to say about this, to include not only James Gorman, Chair of The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors, but Bob Iger, current CEO, and even Michael Eisner, the former CEO of the company. We'll then highlight some of the tactical challenges ahead as well as the strategic opportunities moving forward, in this, one of the most unique companies in the world. Join us as we offer Disney Insights to the appointment of the new CEO of The Walt Disney Company, Josh D'Amaro. _____________________________________________________ Disney Insights YouTube Page--Check it out and subscribe.

Several topics have been circling around recently, and I thought it would be a great opportunity to offer some thoughts about what is going on in several Disney park realms. Anything about Villains Land has people curious as to what is happening. This includes some work being done by The Haunted Mansion. We'll explore the rumors and conjecture on how this land will be laid out. Next we talk about Star Wars Galaxy's Edge. There have been announcements of not only new additions, timelines, and offerings being added not to Disney's Hollywood Studios version of this land, but at Disneyland. Finally, speaking of Disneyland have you seen Disneyland Handcrafted? This film done by Leslie Iwerks gives insights to what things looked like when Walt Disney determined he would open a brand new themed park concept in the space of a year of construction. This is a fascinating documentary with some terrific ideas, So join us for Disney Insights on Villains Land, Star Wars Galaxy's Edge and Disneyland Handcrafted. _____________________________________________________ Disney Insights YouTube Page--Check it out and subscribe.

Extinction is coming fast for Dinoland, so many areas have closed and the remainder will come to an end quickly. We bid our final adieu by digging for lessons to be learned from this corner of Disney's Animal Kingdom park. They serve to help us understand what worked and didn't work not just in this land, but for people trying to perhaps not build a theme park, but build organizations and take them to the next level. We may not be going back to the Cretaceous period, but we are considering how this land became what it became. And we are looking at some very intricate details that shape our understanding of how life must have been here in Diggs County. Join us as we go digging' for Insights at Dinoland. ________________________________________________________ Disney Insights YouTube Page--Check it out and subscribe.

The Wall Street Journal this week published an article entitled, "The 3,000-Person Team Working in Secret to Create Disney Magic". This article written by Ben Fritz makes a number of claims about the challenges Walt Disney Imagineering has in being able to do massive projects on time, under budget and on benefit. We will share these claims and weave these insights with a book I use in my leadership programming--How Big Things Get Done: The Surprising Factors That Determine the Fate of Every Project. It becomes a sense by which we can better understand why Imagineering experiences the challenges it does. We'll look at Imagineering Leadership and CEO leadership, and how it has had a big impact on how the work gets done as Disney seeks to spend 60 billion within the next ten years. And already one Imagineer, Joe Rohde has weighed in on his comments. So joining us for Walt Disney Imagineering: The Secret to Being on Time Under Budget & On Benefit. ________________________________________________________ Disney Insights YouTube Page--Check it out and subscribe.

As we enter 2026 we continue our celebration of Disneyland's 70th anniversary with a look at Mickey's Toon Town. One of the newer places on the map, this little corner beyond Fantasyland is filled with whimsy and charm. We share with you how the concept came about, due in large part to three major influences of that time--Including Snoopy! We look at the original Toon Town and compare it to how it looks today, to include the addition of Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Train. It's the same attraction as the one at Disney's Hollywood Studios, but it isn't because of an amazing queue. We'll talk all about that, and other little details of this town built on celluloid. Join us during Disneyland's 70th anniversary where we celebrate Mickey's Toon Town! ________________________________________________________ Disney Insights YouTube Page--Check it out and subscribe.

Today we're putting The Tonearm's needle on drummer Phil Haynes.Since moving to New York from Oregon in 1983, Phil's played on scores of recordings with artists like Anthony Braxton and David Liebman. Phil has joined me once already, in March 2024, to discuss his memoir, Chasing the Masters: First Takes of a Modernist Drumming Artist.Phil's with me today to discuss his band Free Country, which takes American roots music and runs it through their particular jazz lens, using cello, guitar, bass, and drums to create something called "jazz-grass."Their new album Liberty Now! did not set out to be political. Phil planned for the group to record original compositions, a departure from their previous work. But then the last US Presidential election happened. And then the band got word of the passing of their trumpeter, Herb Robertson, as they walked into the studio. The music and the plan changed. Phil paired the new recordings with songs from Free Country's catalog into a double album that runs from Revolutionary War tunes to "What a Wonderful World."Phil's here to talk about grief, protest, making art when the ground shifts under you, and one of my favorite topics: the role of music in addressing contemporary political and social challenges.(The musical excerpts heard in the interview are from Phil Haynes & Free Country's album Liberty Now! )–Dig Deeper• Artist and Album:Visit Phil Haynes at philhaynes.com and on BandcampPurchase Phil Haynes & Free Country's Liberty Now! from Corner Store Jazz or BandcampPhil Haynes' memoir: Chasing the Masters: First Takes of a Modern Drumming ArtistPhil Haynes' March 2024 appearance on The Tonearm Podcast• Free Country Band Members:Hank Roberts, cellist/vocalistDrew Gress, bassistJim Yanda, guitarist• Free Country Discography:Shenandoah (1997) - pre-1900 American musicWay the West Was Won (2002) - early 20th century Americana'60/'69: My Favorite Things (2014) - music of the 1960sSomething Beatles (2013) - live Beatles covers• Herb Robertson:Herb Robertson tributePhil Haynes & Herb Robertson: Ritual (2000)herbrobertson.com• Influences and Mentors:Paul Smoker, trumpeterDavid Liebman, saxophonistElvin Jones - Merry-Go-Round album• Historical and Musical References:Max Roach - We Insist!

The Wonderful World of Wine (WWW) Episode 306 Hosts Kim Simone and Mark Lenzi explore all things wine with you! A Spirited Sip with a Wine Maverick Raymond Blake Join hosts Kim and Mark on as they uncork a fantastic conversation with acclaimed Irish wine author, Raymond Blake. In this spirited episode, Raymond takes us on a journey through his unconventional path to becoming a respected wine writer, starting with a surprising "interest" at the tender age of 10. We dive deep into the world of Burgundy, exploring common misconceptions and his thoughts on the Aligoté grape, all inspired by his books Cote d'Or: The Winemaking Heart of Burgundy and Breakfast in Burgundy. Raymond also shares his unique perspective on French wine values and his work in Hugh Johnson's Pocket Wine Books. The conversation flows into topics from his book Wine Talk, including the concept of "sense of place" and Champagne's "garbage history." You'll be amazed by his candid revelation of a travel destination that fell short of his expectations. Finally, Raymond's passion shines through as he unravels the beautiful mystery of wine, offering a captivating and insightful look into why it captivates so many. Find Raymond on Instagram @Blakeonwine and his website http://www.blakeonwine.com Cheers Kim And Mark

"Wonderful World". Un monde merveilleux. L'une des plus célèbres chansons de Sam Cooke, écrite cinq avant sa mort violente et toujours mystérieuse. C'était une semaine avant la Noël 1964, l'étoile montante de la soul music américaine, déjà riche et courtisée, appelée à devenir l'un des plus grands chanteurs noirs de l'histoire, était tué par balle dans un motel minable de Los Angeles.

I have to admit that this year has flown by quickly. Full of highlights, but still Spring became summer, and summer went right into Thanksgiving, and the next thing you knew the year was closing. On many levels I have enjoyed the parks perhaps more days in the year than in previous years. Unless I'm out of town I'm there once a week at least, but lately, I've found myself easily there 2-3 days out of seven. And it's been wonderful. Just during the Christmas season we have had some really wonderful visits. We'll discuss new attractions that have emerged in 2025, as well as moments I have had cherishing the final days of attractions that have now parted. Among all this I'll share my favorite moment of the entire year. Then we'll look forward to the new year. I don't believe Disney has yet to disclose all that is happening in the parks in 2026, but there's a solid start to the first half so far. We'll look at each incoming experience, and then focus in on what will be the most important announcement to happen in 2026. Finally we have an announcement that sets the stage for Disney Insights in the upcoming year! So join us as we celebrate 2025 and anticipate all to come in 2026! ________________________________________________________ Disney Insights YouTube Page--Check it out and subscribe.

Bright Suns! Throughout this year we have celebrated Disneyland's 70th Anniversary by looking at the nine lands of the park. And as the celebration continues in Anaheim, we continue our celebration here on Disney Insights. Today we look at Star Wars Galaxy's Edge. This is perfect because this land especially references the last three film series in the larger trilogy. This week Star Wars: The Force Awakens came out ten years ago into the movie theaters. So much of that film and the two others that fall after it tie into the Black Spire Outpost of Star Wars Galaxy's Edge. We're going to relive the opening of this themed land at Disneyland, talk about the similarities and differences to its twin at Disney's Hollywood Studios, and then share with you my top 7 Easter egg-style references to Star Wars within this land. Join us as we celebrate Star Wars Galaxy's Edge on Disneyland's 70th anniversary. _______________________________________________________ Disney Insights YouTube Page--Check it out and subscribe.

In this enlightening sermon from our series, "The Wonderful World of the Apocalypse," we dive into the meaningful discussion of holiness and devotion as depicted in Revelation 3. This message sheds light on Jesus' prophetic message to the church in Philadelphia, redefining holiness as an intimate invitation into God's presence rather than just moral perfection.Explore how Jesus emphasizes true devotion over worldly measures of success and how choosing holiness opens doors to lasting hope and divine blessing. Through stories of unwavering faith, discover the incredible power of a life devoted to Jesus Christ and how it transforms personal and communal experiences.This sermon not only provides deeper scriptural insights but also invites you to a life of unshakeable faith and true significance. Whether you're yearning for a stronger spiritual foundation or seeking to lead a life that reflects God's kingdom, this message is meant to inspire and guide you toward living as part of God's devoted people.Tune in to our podcast for more thought-provoking messages, and join us in our journey toward greater spiritual intimacy and purpose. Don't forget to rate, review, and share this sermon with others who seek to live a life of deep devotion and eternal impact.

Started this week with the updates on that terrible Hong Kong high-rise fire, and then talked about Canada ditching green laws in favor of oil and gas. Plus a deep dive on the DC shooter's notorious hunter/killer squad in Afghanistan, Malaysia ramping up migrant detentions, US National parks raising prices on foreigners, and a UK guy murdered his mother's sleeping friend and had sex with her corpse afterward. Music: Jimmy Cliff/"Wonderful World, Beautiful People"

This past week, locations were removed from the service. Disney's Wonderful World of Sweets in Downtown Disney, Pooh Corner, and Candy Palace and Candy Kitchen in Disneyland, Bing Bong's Sweets, and Trolley Treats in Disney California Adventure are no longer using the system. - https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2025/11/22/news-mobile-order-removed-from-some-locations-on-disneyland-app/ Buying tickets to the Disneyland Resort might start to look more like booking tickets on an airline in the coming years. Dynamic pricing, or the ability for Disney to change the pricing depending on several factors throughout the day, week, or year, is already in place at Disneyland Paris, and according to Disney Chief Financial Officer Hugh Johnston, might be coming to the US parks. Ultimately, this will remove flat-rate pricing for specific days, and go to a range of prices for a day, which can vary based on attendance and weather, to name a few. - https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/disney-parks-dynamic-pricing-coming-to-domestic-parks/ As the expansion to Avenger's Campus continues, Walt Disney Imagineering has shared a behind-the-scenes look at the recent progress, which includes the canopy connecting Avenger's Infinity Defense and Stark Flight Lab being assembled.
