Micecast

Your hosts talk about the newly rumored 5th Gate at Walt Disney World, Disney's Night Kingdom. A lively discussion, liberally sprinkled with adult language, ensues. 1 hour 51 minutes.

Chris from the Big D is a guest on this show discussing the new House of the Future. It is the height of irony that the recording session was plagued with technical difficulty. Which, in turn, pushed the release date back by about 5 days. Filled with adult language. 2 hours 11 minutes.

Your hosts start out by trying to answer a listener question. A small technical glitch throws them off balance and they end up talking about a whole bunch of different things. They barely get the question answered. Yes, there is adult language. 1 hour 49 minutes.

After a quick revisit of our last show, your hosts tackle a listener requested topic: what do they do with the ride vehicles at night? The boys call upon their theme park operations experience and do their best to answer. Adult language. 1 hour 34 minutes.

The RE-Imagineering blog helps provide this week's show topic: Hong Kong Disneyland. Your hosts discuss the blog's assertion that Hong Kong Disneyland fails miserably when compared to The Original. Multiple F-Bombs in this one, so be careful. 1 hour 49 minutes.

Your hosts follow last weeks ground-breaking 3+ hour marathon roundtable show with something a little more Old School. The show topic is a listener suggestion: Why do people go to Disney? There ARE F-Bombs and the show length is Old School as well, 1 hour 7 minutes.

A roundtable show request from DPN Forum Member Aussie John. He asked us to take a look back and comment on Disney's 2007. He has a few rules, one of them being that we stay positive. We weren't sure we were up to the task (especially the no negativity part) but he bribed us (and bribed us well) so we do our best. Along for the ride is Chris from the Big D podcast, and DPN Forum Members, Burnt Toast, JohnDUB, and Kael. There is plenty of Adult Language and Adult Beverage so be advised to keep the kiddies away. So strap yourselves in and clear your calendars, this one comes in at 3 hours 20 minutes.

Taking one last show idea from the Holiday Season, your hosts examine the idea of other attractions besides Small World or Haunted Mansion benefiting from a holiday overlay. They look at all 6 US parks as part of the discussion. We also read a couple e-mails and promote WestFest like nobody's business. 1 hour 54 minutes.

Your hosts return from a month-long hiatus with 2 hours and 11 minutes of standard MiceCast fare (Adult language warnings apply). Another entry in the RE-Imagineering blog gives Greg, Mike, and Richard an intersting question to discuss: Does the use of B-List actors in atttraction films hurt Disney and/or the attraction in the long term? Not too many tangents either.

With Thanksgiving on the mind, your hosts decide to talk turkey. Referring specifically to shows and / or attractions that turned out to be duds. You know, turkeys. Plenty of tangents and grown-up talk. 2 hours 5 minutes.

In an attempt to foster cultural exchange, your hosts invite DPN Forum Member AussieJohn to join them for a show. The topic was to further examine the question of whether or not Australia could support a Disney park. As usual, the tangents of MiceCast got in the way and not a lot of discussion about that particular topic made it into the show. Adult Language. 1 hour 57 minutes.

Your hosts (and GalacticHero) visit a local haunted house for some good old-fashioned Halloween fun. They take inspiration from TV and movie sources and, of course, the grand-daddy of them all, Knott's Berry Farm's Halloween Haunt. If you have the opportunity to visit, do so. All proceeds go to charity and we don't think you will be disappointed. A companion video should be up by Halloween. 60 minutes.

Your hosts (JohnDUB was there too) sit down with Ray and Cindy of The Bare Necessities podcast at the Disneyland Resort. The main idea was to get Ray and Cindy's take on their first ever trip to Disneyland. There are gratuitous F-Bombs and other adult language. 1 hour 56 minutes.

With all three hosts together again, this show is predictably all over the place. We read a couple e-mails, talk about Al Lutz's latest, and litter the show with F-Bombs. 1 hour 58 minutes.

Mike and Richard record a show while Greg is away at WDW. As a result, they talk about their memories from their respective first ever trips to WDW. 1 hour 12 minutes.

Greg and Richard record a show about their experiences in the Disneyland Security department. Mike was away on vacation when this was recorded so it easily hits 2 hours 1 minute. Standard adult language warnings apply.

Your hosts raise the bullsh!t flag on the RE Imagineering Blog's (http://imagineerebirth.blogspot.com/) latest entry (J.K. Rowlings Magical Gift). We do get to the point eventually, but this is still a long one at 2 hours 12 minutes. Standard adult language warnings still apply.

Your hosts put their full ignorance of Disney's Vacation Club on display. There is an F-Bomb and a paintball tangent. 1 hour 49 minutes (and all of it show as the closing music is only 1 minute 16 seconds).

Greg comes back from Florida with a trip report. Which, in turn, brings back the bloated MiceCast episode. Standard adult language warning applies. 1 hour 53 minutes.

Your hosts discuss, examine, and reminisce about the long-gone Disneyland practice of short-term promotional events. These special events, or "overlays", were designed to draw in local residents back in the day when Disneyland had slow times. 1 hour 4 minutes.
