Hello there, folks. SurferClock here with a quick show schedule update.
As it turns out, I've been rather negligent regarding checking the calendar, as I've only just learned today that next Monday, which was supposed to be a Versus episode of "What's the Attraction?", falls on Labor Day. There will be no new episode in commemoration of the Labor Day holiday...as many of you likely will, we'll be spending the day relaxing and enjoying the fruits of our labor.
Don't forget that if there are any episodes you have yet to see, you can always catch up on 'em via the WTA Podcast YouTube channel! So much has happened on the show over the past year, it's hard to keep track of it all.
If necessary, I'll make another post Monday, should anything change. Otherwise, we here at WTeamA (SurferClock, TAP-G, and TowerGirl) wish you all a safe and happy Labor Day (and subsequent long Labor Day weekend)!

Episode 53 - Jim Henson's Muppet*Vision 3-D (Part 2)
Hello, happy Netizens! SurferClock here along with TAP-G to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"
Last week, we began our review of Jim Henson's Muppet*Vision 3-D by guest-starring on an episode of The Muppet Show...though we were subject to numerous interruptions and all the abject insanity that comes with any Muppet production. This week, we get things back on track, take you through the attraction, and finally discuss and rate it! Is it among the greats, or is it flatter than a rubber chicken sat upon by Sweetums? Find out in Part 2 of our review of this 3-D film! Click below to watch.

Episode 52 - Jim Henson's Muppet*Vision 3-D (Part 1)
Greetings, listeners! SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"
Let's just begin outright by saying that this episode came by popular demand...'cause who doesn't love numerous executions of well-done puppetry? Among the most famous of all puppet crews are those loveable denizens of denim...the Muppets! They are revered and honored by so many that today, we wanted to review Jim Henson's Muppet*Vision 3-D over at Disney's Hollywood Studios! It's not their first effort at DHS, however, as "Here Come The Muppets" was where Voyage of the Little Mermaid is today in 1990 and "Days of Swine and Roses", a live stage show featuring the Muppets, played near this attraction up until 1994.
When the Muppet crew heard we were going to cover their last-remaining theme park attraction, they invited us to take part in a special episode of "The Muppet Show." How could we not take them up on that offer?
So! In a style that only that colorful cast could pull off, we're making this review a two-parter! Enjoy, folks, and Part 2 is coming next week!

WTA End of Summer Cooldown (Show Break)
Hey there, folks. SurferClock here with a quick little update regarding this week for WTA.
The show's been running pretty much at full steam throughout the summer, with a few episodic breaks and, of course, our 1-year anniversary special. So, with TAP-G currently out of town, I figured the show could use a little bit of a break. There will be no new episode posted this week, which makes this a great time to catch up on shows you've missed or just revisit an old favorite. Grab your favorite ice-cold beverage(s), sit back, relax, and enjoy all that summer has to offer. We'll be back next week with an all-new episode of "What's the Attraction?", where Our Work is Your Vacation!

Fed Up #3 - Why Are Theme Park Employees So Mean?
Hello everyone! SurferClock here to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"
TAP-G's last episode of Fed Up!, in which he discussed the perceived stupidity of some theme park guests got me to thinking...is it really -always- their fault? We all know of incidents and instances where Guests flip their lid due to things said to them or done to them by theme park employees...and let's face it: not every employee is a happy, shining example of company values. Yes, there are cases where the young lady letting you onto the ride may not be having the best day...there are days where the older gentleman scooping your ice cream isn't having a zip-a-dee-doo-dah-day, and even the cheesiest of smiles can hide self-loathing. Then, there are just plain jerks who haven't realized they are in the wrong industry.
On the other side of that, there are negative perceptions that affect some people's view of all theme park employees, a blanket judgment that, quite simply, isn't fair.
I'm here today to run down reasons, some legit, some not, that theme park employees can seem so mean.

In the episode, I also call for comments regarding theme park experiences that rub folks the wrong way. I only ask that it be kept civil, as particularly inflammatory comments will be removed.

If you find that you really like what we do here, like us on Facebook, subscribe to the YouTube channel, and make sure you tell a friend! Next week, new content may or may not be forthcoming. No full plans yet, but I'll be sure to let you folks know what's happening.
