Jim goes for a spin. 35:26 yes This week, we finish many things. OppAtt Theater concludes with the three most exciting attractions at Walt Disney World. SITCOT concludes with the one most exciting sitcom of television history. First up, Scottye makes a roll of the dice to send Martin Crane away from Seattle and maybe to a Cheers in space? It's complicated. Then, Jim combines the excitement of answering live radio psychology calls with the sheer boredom that is a state fair Tornado attraction. Don't worry, it's only slightly longer than the American Adventure in experience length. We end, somehow, with stunts, lightsabers, and the hit tv show Wings, you know, just to go out of the season on a real high note. See you for Season 9 in two weeks. disney, disney world, universal studios, design, imagineering, engineering, architecture, frasier, mission space, alien encounter, cheers, planet of the apes, monorail, peoplemover, soarin This week, we finish many things.

Scottye knows what it will take. 31:38 yes This week, we discuss some of the insanity at this year's IAAPA conference in Orlando before setting about giving our very own Epic Universe it's own dangerous transportation systems. First up, Jim creates an in-park monorail-ish contraption that just so happens to routinely derail around the load/unload stations, leading to some harrowing balancing acts as guests try (and possibly fail) to make it to their next destination without falling to the sidewalks below. Meanwhile, outside the park, Scottye has instituted a guest proving ground to show that you have the fortitude to spend the day in a theme park that will most definitely cause bodily harm and/or death. Presumably you do not need a ticket to get to the turnstiles themselves, but you might need good insurance. Next week it's our season finale!

Scottye follows that up by building a web all his own around a large chunk of the park's real estate. Note to any listeners: Don't go on Scottye's ride after dark. Yikes.
