MiceCast

In an attempt to foster cultural exchange, your hosts invite DPN Forum Member AussieJohn to join them for a show. The topic was to further examine the question of whether or not Australia could support a Disney park. As usual, the tangents of MiceCast got in the way and not a lot of discussion about that particular topic made it into the show. Adult Language. 1 hour 57 minutes.

Your hosts (and GalacticHero) visit a local haunted house for some good old-fashioned Halloween fun. They take inspiration from TV and movie sources and, of course, the grand-daddy of them all, Knott's Berry Farm's Halloween Haunt. If you have the opportunity to visit, do so. All proceeds go to charity and we don't think you will be disappointed. A companion video should be up by Halloween. 60 min...

Your hosts (JohnDUB was there too) sit down with Ray and Cindy of The Bare Necessities podcast at the Disneyland Resort. The main idea was to get Ray and Cindy's take on their first ever trip to Disneyland. There are gratuitous F-Bombs and other adult language. 1 hour 56 minutes.

With all three hosts together again, this show is predictably all over the place. We read a couple e-mails, talk about Al Lutz's latest, and litter the show with F-Bombs. 1 hour 58 minutes.

Mike and Richard record a show while Greg is away at WDW. As a result, they talk about their memories from their respective first ever trips to WDW. 1 hour 12 minutes.

Greg and Richard record a show about their experiences in the Disneyland Security department. Mike was away on vacation when this was recorded so it easily hits 2 hours 1 minute. Standard adult language warnings apply.

Your hosts raise the bullsh!t flag on the RE Imagineering Blog's (http://imagineerebirth.blogspot.com/) latest entry (J.K. Rowlings Magical Gift). We do get to the point eventually, but this is still a long one at 2 hours 12 minutes. Standard adult language warnings still apply.

Your hosts put their full ignorance of Disney's Vacation Club on display. There is an F-Bomb and a paintball tangent. 1 hour 49 minutes (and all of it show as the closing music is only 1 minute 16 seconds).

Greg comes back from Florida with a trip report. Which, in turn, brings back the bloated MiceCast episode. Standard adult language warning applies. 1 hour 53 minutes.

Your hosts discuss, examine, and reminisce about the long-gone Disneyland practice of short-term promotional events. These special events, or "overlays", were designed to draw in local residents back in the day when Disneyland had slow times. 1 hour 4 minutes.

Your hosts take a look at various attraction show effects and try to plug them into various categories. No F-Bombs but there is still some adult language. 1 hour 39 minutes.

Your hosts tackle the subject of the political battle being waged between The Walt Disney Company and the City of Anaheim. They are fighting over changes to Anaheim's General Plan which will change the zoning of a small parcel of land at the eastern edge of Anaheim's Resort District. They try to examine why the casual Disney fan would even care about this issue. 1 hour 45 minutes.

Recorded "Live" at The Disney Gallery in Disneyland, your hosts talk about the past and speculate on the future of The Gallery. 1 hour 10 minutes.

Recorded on 7/17/2007, your three hosts decide to examine the legacy, if any, Disneyland may have after 52 years of existence. There is also some discussion based on a listener e-mail. This episode includes gratuitous use of adult language (yes, there are F-Bombs). Those of you who like the long shows will be happy, 2 hours 5 minutes.

This episode has everything! Three hosts, tangents galore, arguments, sarcasm, and F-Bombs and other adult language. All the stuff you would expect to find in a MiceCast episode and plenty of it. 2 hours 14 minutes.

In honor of the Fourth of July holiday, your hosts look at what Disney has done to preserve and advance the idea of Americana. 1 hour 29 minutes.

Your hosts are asked to talk about their favorite Walt Disney animated features. Initially reluctant, since they are not a "movie review" podcast (there are others who are MUCH better at it), they take a stab at it since they were asked for opinion and MiceCast has no shortage of opinion. 1 hour 40 minutes.

DPN Forum Member Artjaro joins in on the discussion. He talks a little bit about his first ever trip to Disneyland. Then your hosts continue to use listener suggestions for show topics. This time the suggestion was Expand-a-Land. Imagine you could add a new themed land to Disneyland. What would be the theme? Where would you put it? What attractions would you develop? 1 hour 39 minutes.

Your hosts tackle a listener suggested topic of "Knowing When to Say When". Which tries to answer the following questions: How long do you think Disney should keep something running? When do you realize something is not working for the public or the park anymore and should be replaced? The questions are applied to things like attractions, promotions, etc.. 1 Hour 22 minutes.

Your hosts read a few e-mails that they forgot for the last show. Then they jump into a discussion about the term DF, what it means, and what they may look like. 1 hour 22 minutes.

After taking a ride on the new Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage at Disneyland, your hosts and a couple of guests (GalacticHero and Burnt Toast) sit down for a roundtable discussion about the attraction. We do discuss some show elements, so avoid listening if you don't want to be spoiled. 1 hour 20 minutes.

Your hosts read a couple e-mails and spend some time on a "what if" scenario presented by a listener. Some more thoughts from Kevin Yee help fuel some discussion as well. 1 hour and 39 minutes.

Your hosts (and Richard) along with DPN Forum Member Burnt Toast talk about Fort Wilderness at Disneyland. The impending destruction of The Fort has them reflecting on memories of time spent there. There are some tangents and a medley at the end to give you 1 hour and 22 minutes of fun.

Your hosts, Richard, and Paul Barrie (on loan from Window to the Magic) discuss the impact of ADA mandated accessiblity requirements on the element of "Show" at Disneyland. They also talk a little bit about whether or not the Year of a Million Dreams promotion discriminates when it hands out prizes on attractions that are not open to everybody regardless of physical ability. Standard MiceCast fare...

Your hosts (and Richard) discuss a couple topics: the recent DPN event known as WestFest and a couple aspects of the security of Disneyland (including Disneyland's airspace restriction). While no F-Bombs were dropped, this 1 hour 53 minute show is liberally sprinkled with other "adult" language.
