What are several glaring anachronisms in Walt Disney World's Mr. Toad's Wild Ride?On this episode of Distory, we motor on through the first half of Track B in the extinct Walt Disney World version of Mr. Toad, looking for the details and history that have been lost over time. After discussing some silly portraits (and a disappointing motto) in Toad Hall, we crash into the library and find some anachronistic quills, a few connections to Disneyland, and a surprising origin of a word connected to a piece of armor. We then fly out into the barnyard to explore some recycled Bruce Bushman concepts, learn about curly pig tails, and admire some eyelashes. Kirk gives us a lesson on Disney's favorite chickens, Kate gives a rundown of some repeated audio animatronics, and we end this episode toasting Disney's incredible illusioneer Yale Gracey, who brought us chicken mobiles, pouring tea, mylar flames. and so much more. Join us LIVE on YouTube most Thursdays at 10:30am Pacific/1:30pm Eastern for more Distory!Kate's Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@disneycicerone⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠You can also find us on Instagram, Facebook, and at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠disneycicerone.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ & ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠walruscarp.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠View full video versions of each episode at Disney Cicerone's YouTube channel ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠OR on the Spotify version of our podcast.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Distory T-shirts and Stickers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kate's Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kate's books on Amazon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WalrusCarp T-shirts & Merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MOWD app

This week we just have a mini episode for you, but it's a can't miss! We introduce two pivotal figures into this story who were key in furthering the Haunted Mansion's development. Drumroll please….. these men are none other than Rolly Crump and Yale Gracey. They were hand-selected by Walt for this project because he believed these were the men up for the challenge and would be the perfect dynamic duo to spearhead this spooky attraction. Listen in to learn more about these two men and what exactly Walt saw in them that made him believe they would further bring his Haunted Mansion vision to life.

Is there a superior version of Pirates of the Caribbean in the US Disney parks? In this episode of Distory, things get a little heated as we debate which version of Pirates of the Caribbean is best: Disneyland or Walt Disney World. Using historical stories, statistical facts, and present-day perspectives, we both try to prove that one ride clearly comes out ahead. Along the way, we have some fun telling a few new tales about this beloved attraction, from Yale Gracey's unique practical effects to how specific smells impact our DIsney experience. This unique episode is filed with bits and pieces of treasure when it comes to Disney history, and we hope you enjoy debating along with us as we each make a case for which ride is the superior version (and since Kate wrote this, its so obviously Disneyland's version). Join us LIVE on TikTok every Friday at 5:30pm Pacific/8:30pm Eastern for more Distory!

We have received your sympathetic vibrations and will now continue our tour…This week on Uncovering the Haunted Mansion, we talk about the forgotten Imagineer. Many Haunted Mansion fans will know of Marc Davis, Rolly Crump, Claude Coates, and Yale Gracey, but while there were countless other imagineers that worked to bring the Mansion “alive”, none might be more important than the legendary imagineer, Ken Anderson! Now what did he provide to the Mansion?

Additionally, they can answer questions in English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese. – https://wdwnt.com/2020/08/plandisney-officially-replaces-disney-parks-moms-panel/ In a bit of a surprise, there is more work happening around the resort than would be expected with the parks shutdown. The Emporium on Main Street is surrounded by scaffolding and is probably being repainted. Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is also very active at the moment, not showing any signs of slowing down progress. – https://www.micechat.com/266881-disneyland-update-magic-mayhem-parks-bleed-billions/ We wouldn’t count on anything for sure, but the Disneyland Hotels are accepting reservations starting in October as of now. As we have reported on numerous times now, these dates keep getting announced and pushed back. The fact that reservations are open does not mean that the parks are going to be open, or that the reservations won’t be delayed further. – https://www.micechat.com/266881-disneyland-update-magic-mayhem-parks-bleed-billions/ Cast Members that are returning to work at Disneyland will be provided with a special care package that includes face masks, thermometer, hand sanitizer, and a pamphlet with cast member resources. – https://wdwnt.com/2020/08/disneyland-resort-provides-care-packages-with-face-masks-hand-sanitizer-and-more-for-all-cast-members-returning-to-work/ California State Officials are currently reviewing and working on how and when to allow theme parks such as Disneyland to reopen in the state. Once they have come up with a plan that will provide detailed guidance, the California Department of Public Health will work with the theme parks to open. There is currently no time frame on when this might be, as conditions continue to change in the state. – https://www.ocregister.com/2020/08/10/state-reviewing-how-and-when-to-reopen-disneyland-and-other-california-theme-parks/ The Morning Consult research company and the Hollywood Reporter surveyed 2,200 people in late July about how safe they would feel retuning to Disneyland and other theme parks. 78% of those surveyed had no interest in any theme park this summer. Attendance caps and sanitzation stations are helping respondents to feel safer going back to the parks. However, 20% of parents are less likely to visit when masks are required. – https://www.ocregister.com/2020/08/08/parents-not-ready-to-take-their-kids-to-disneyland-poll-finds/ and https://www.mouseplanet.com/12725/Disneyland_Resort_Update_for_August_10__15_2020#news1 and https://morningconsult.com/2020/07/31/parents-theme-parks-disney-coronavirus/ Disney on the high seas is also not an option with the Disney Cruise Line canceling all sailings through the month of October. This doesn’t just impact Disney, as the Cruise Lines International Association was the ones who mandated the suspension of sailings. – https://www.micechat.com/266881-disneyland-update-magic-mayhem-parks-bleed-billions/ It is barely August which means that Halloween season has started! shopDIsney has released some new Halloween merchandise from the parks. Each of the items come in Disneyland and Walt Disney World versions. Items include t-shirts, a painted pumpkins mystery pin set, spirit jersey, villains fleece throw, and more.

The Big Thunder set is designed with denim and bandana style elements. These sets will be released in August and September and you must use the MerchPass system to enter for a chance to buy the items. – https://wdwnt.com/2020/08/photos-sneak-peek-at-new-dumbo-the-flying-elephant-and-big-thunder-mountain-railroad-collection-for-upcoming-minnie-mouse-the-main-attraction-series-releases/ Have you always wanted to see your name up in lights?

The $25 package is just a digital photo of the marquee displaying your message, up to the $200 package that will have your message appear in rotation for 8 hours, appearing at least once per hour. – https://elcapitantheatre.com/marqueemessages The Imagineer behind Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Joe Rohde, along with his family, created a five-part video series on the design and inspiration of Animal Kingdom, called The Rohde’s Less Traveled. The inspiration behind this series was being stuck at home together during quarantine. The Rohde family of four has writers, a director, a cameraman, a producer, and Joe as the talking head, making this project possible. The series had to use photos, videos, and items from around their house to tell stories about Animal Kingdom. – https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2020/08/the-rohdes-less-traveled-inside-the-design-and-inspiration-of-disneys-animal-kingdom-theme-park/ Something not directly related to the parks, but we thought was important to include are the new adaptive costumes and wheelchair covers now available at shopDisney. The adaptive costumes have flap openings on the front that allow for easy tube access, with a self stick closure, and an ankle length skirt to accommodate seated guests. The skirt is also open in the back for wheelchair-friendly wear, and a stretch fabric that opens in the back as well. The wheelchair accessory has hook and loop tabs for attaching to a wheelchair and easy to assemble support bars for the covering. – https://wdwnt.com/2020/08/shop-new-adaptive-cinderella-costume-and-coach-wheelchair-cover-set-bring-magic-to-shopdisney/ Discussion Topic: Yale Gracey MousePlanet – https://www.mouseplanet.com/11887/The_Wizard_of_WED_Yale_Gracey D23 – https://d23.com/walt-disney-legend/yale-gracey/ Reimagining the Imagineers – https://reimaginingtheimagineers.wordpress.com/2016/10/13/remembering-yale-gracey-our-ghost-host/ Haunted Mansion – https://hauntedmansion.fandom.com/wiki/Yale_Gracey
