Scottye takes a spin. 34:55 yes <p>This week, we begin with some discussions about Epcot's recent night time changes, and then segue into Scottye's new podcast-within-a-podcast <em>Intoxications: Reflections Of Puke</em> (I'm sure it's a working title), all about really bad times in the Happiest Place On Earth. That out of the way, we turn to giving our Epic Universe some gritty attractions based on other more famous attractions. First, Jim invites guests to visit the Big Apple on <em><strong>The Concrete Jungle Cruise</strong></em>, featuring minutes upon minutes of lame jokes and naked hobos. It's fun for the whole family! Then, Scottye heads back in time (???) as he joins Commandeer Buzz on a campaign to crush the evil Adolf Von Zurg and save the so-called "illegal" aliens from a life of internment. This seems perfect for the new vision of Tomorrowland.
