WDW Radio # 801 - Pete Renaday, Disney voice actor (Country Bear Jamboree, 20,000 Leagues, TTA and more) - From the Archives This week, I'm sharing a special episode from the Archives, as my interview this week comes from show # 232 back in 2011 in honor of legendary voice actor Pete Renaday, who passed away on September 8. Pete's iconic voice brought life to unforgettable characters in both Walt Disney World and Disneyland, including Henry from the Country Bear Jamboree, Walt Disney World's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (as Captain Nemo), The Hall of Presidents (as Abraham Lincoln), the Disneyland version of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh and The Walt Disney Story as narrator, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority, Adventure Thru Inner Space, and Mark Twain Riverboat. He was also the Ghost Host on the Haunted Mansion album (which I still have and love). I feel fortunate to have Pete be able to share his story in his own words and iconic voice as he shares his incredible journey—from meeting Walt Disney to his work on animated films and iconic attractions. So just refrain from hibernatin’, and let’s enjoy the show, cause he’s still got a lot to give. - Which of Pete Renaday's voices do you like or recognize most?

WDW Radio # 796 - Josh D'Amaro - My Exclusive Interview at D23 with the Disney Experiences Chairman At D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro revealed a groundbreaking lineup of new attractions, lands, and projects that solidify and highlighted Disney's bold vision for the next decade. The event was a remarkable milestone for many reasons, and the highly-anticipated Disney Experiences Showcase fulfilled wishes and exceeded expectations. I had the incredible opportunity and privilege to sit down, one-on-one, with Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro the morning after his presentation to discuss the event, fan speculation, wishes, expectations, and responses. It is a very candid and personal conversation that offers unique insight into the strategy, mission, legacy, and message from this year's presentation. Josh takes us behind the scenes, emphasizing the connection between the Walt Disney Company and its fans. I was remarkably impressed with Josh's transparency, particularly illustrating the importance of listening to fan feedback, including criticism, to understand better and meet high expectations, underlining his humility and dedication to the Disney community. I did not take the responsibility of being granted this interview lightly, and rather than, in the limited but incredibly generous time I had with Josh, try and touch on individual announcements and attractions, but instead focus on the important overarching and significance of the event, and the relationship of the Company and its fans like you and me. So I invite you to pull up a chair, and sit at the table with me and Josh, and hopefully find our conversation as enjoyable, insightful, and rewarding as I did. And of course, huge thanks to Josh, who is someone I didn't think I could like and respect any more, but who gave me new appreciation of him as a fan and leader. (And just so you know... Josh and I shared that hug right after we were done recording). - What did you think about our conversation?

WDW Radio # 792 - Disney Legend Bill "Sully" Sullivan Interview - From the Archives Bill "Sully" Sullivan, a Disney Legend whose career with the Walt Disney Company spanned nearly four decades, passed away this week, and I thought it only appropriate to share my conversation with him from WDW Radio show 39, back in 2007. His is the remarkable story of starting as an opening-day ticket taker at Disneyland, and rising through the ranks to hold various significant roles, including overseeing the opening of Walt Disney World and Epcot. In our conversation, Sully shares remarkable stories and behind-the-scenes moments from his time working closely with Walt Disney, his experiences at the 1960 Winter Olympics, and his contributions to the design and operations of Disney Parks worldwide. Sully's journey was of a man who literally lived the Disney dream. - Which of Sully's contributions to Disney parks do you find most impactful?

WDW Radio # 790 - History of the Country Bear Jamboree - From the Archives I had a chance to get a sneak peek at the all-new Country Bear Musical Jamboree this week, and in honor of the attraction officially opening on July 17, this week, we'll take a detailed look back at the history and legacy of the original versions of this opening day Walt Disney World attraction, the Country Bear Jamboree. This was from show # 275, back in 2012, that was part DSI: Disney Scene Investigation and part Wayback Machine, as, at that time, the Country Bear Jamboree had remained almost exactly the same as it appeared on October 1, 1971. So join us as we explore the history, stories, details, characters, a bit of Americana, and our musical heritage of the past, at the Country Bear Jamboree. And if you want to watch the entire NEW Country Bear Musical Jamboree show, I have a full recording of the very first show from my live video that morning in the Clubhouse. - What do you think of the new show and music?

wow i really like it It fits my video very well. and i would recommend ดูหนังออนไลน์
Not only is Lou one of the most knowledgeable Disney gurus out there, he has created a warm, welcoming community. Highest recommendation.
Perhaps my Favorite podcast of all time, Lou has captured the heart and soul of the modern Disney-holic with his podcast, his wide range of episode format (everything from food reviews to interviews with iconic people in Disney history) the colorful personalities of his recurring co-stars (travel bloggers, celebrations magazine journalists, etc.) and with nearly 800 episodes on the airwaves it is abundantly clear that the crew at WDWRadio has, in all certainty, captured the magic for all to enjoy.
The show is really produced well. But lou does need to remove his rose colored glasses. In his eyes Disney can do no wrong. He also seems to have an unhealthy obsession with the overpriced mostly average food. He does have a listener feedack section where he plays voicemails, however he seems to play the voicemails of only certain people. I know I have heard one particular person numerous times.His books are entertaining, however a lot of the information is either widely known or can easily be found else where.. It does get old....Ok show if you are blinded by the Disney Magic.
there is only one time when i miss this show, when im in the World, Disney World. This show inspired me to become an animator for Disney ( still working on that )
If you're a fan of Disney World you should not pass up this podcast. If you haven't visited Disney World the WDW Radio Show will inform and entertain. The host, Lou Mongello, is well spoken and keeps the pace of the show just right. You will find Lou's topics of conversation with his guests facinating and the production quality is excellent. Well worth the download!
