Episode 74 - The Magic of Disney Animation

Hello there, folks. SurferClock here, along with TAP-G (or should I say Tap-Gracy?) to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

On this episode, we bring back the film noir style last seen for Test Track, as Tap-Gracy whets his whistle at a little speakeasy in Downtown Orlando, where a motley crew of familiar characters hangs out, lamenting the loss of the once-popular Disney Florida Animation Studio. What sits in its place is, actually, the attraction we will be reviewing today…and while The Magic of Disney Animation does still have some of the Florida studio remnants, it's ultimately more of a walk-through gallery or museum. What did we think of it? Find out by clicking the link below!

No episode this week

Hey folks, SurferClock here with a quick announcement regarding the podcast. There will be no episode released this week due to a minor health issue affecting TAP-G. It's nothing major, but we try to maintain a certain standard of quality with each episode produced, and head colds are a bit pesky and tough to work around. Please wish him a speedy recovery, and we hope to return next week with the episode we promised last week.

Episode 73 - Primeval Whirl

Hey there, folks! SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

We're returning to Disney's Animal Kingdom with all its grandeur and beauty to look at...well, certainly not one of the best attractions, but one we needed to get done. Primeval Whirl came along in 2002 as part of Chester and Hester's Dino-Rama! to draw in more kids. Described as a wild-mouse style coaster, it takes riders on a 2.5 minute trip to the end of time, though not nearly as epic as DINOSAUR. So, what'd the guys think of it? Find out as WTA takes it way, way back to the end of an era today!

Next week, we're park-hopping to Disney's Hollywood Studios to take on one of its oldest attractions...The Magic of Disney Animation! Should be exciting, so tune in! (Alternatively, if this script isn't ready [Tapford, buddy, we're looking at -you-], you may see instead a Theme Park Reel-view of 'The LEGO Movie.' Stay tuned!)

Fed Up! #5 - Gay Days Backlash

Hello there, folks. SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

I'm actually stepping aside and allowing TAP-G to helm today's episode, as he takes on what might be the most controversial Fed Up! issue we've done yet, but after much consideration and deliberation, we feel it was a decent episode and that it would be best to have TAP-G take it on. Today's Fed Up! episode addresses Gay Days, an annual celebration of the LGBT community taking place in the Central Florida theme parks each summer. It is not sponsored by the theme park companies. More specifically, TAP-G is speaking out about being fed up regarding the backlash by the groups opposing its presence. Listen in and find out more about what's got him so fed up about it.

I realize that we also have a comments section here. As with our YouTube and Facebook comment sections, we ask that you keep it civil, and while you are more than entitled to your opinion, profanity and hate speech will NOT be tolerated.

If you've enjoyed this episode, please be sure to check out our other episodes if you haven't already. 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, we'll head over to Disney's Animal Kingdom to take on Primeval Whirl, an attraction 65 million years in the m- wait, we've already used that one, I think. Um...just tune in next week. It'll be good, we promise.

It's been a couple weeks, but we're back with a new episode! This week, we're reviewing a fabulous addition to Future World that, after the heyday of Horizons, still attracts lots of fans and thrill-seekers alike...Mission:SPACE opened up in 2003 to crowds of all ages, mostly the thrill-seekers. 2006 gave us the version we have today (Orange Team and Green Team missions), and we plan to cover it all and then some today as WTA prepares to lift off! Will SurferClock's space mission succeed? Find out by clicking below!
