Hello everybody and welcome once again to The WDW Radio Show - Your
Walt Disney World Information Station. I am your host, Lou Mongello and
this is show #86 for the week of September 28, 2008.
I’m back from a busy week in Walt Disney World with a full recap of the
week’s events, including News and details about what is coming for
2009, including the Celebration Vacations, changes and new additions to
the Wide World of Sports Complex, and a new experience in Fantasyland
with Tinker Bell and her fairy friends. I’ll talk to some executives
with Disney to discuss just what’s coming next.
I’ll talk about my trip with a number of other friends and listeners to
the show, as we recorded our recap of the week live from Disney’s
Animal Kingdom Lodge. We’ll talk about everything from our experience
at the newly reopened Nine Dragons restaurant in World Showcase, dinner
at the Wave at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, the last nights of the
Adventurer’s Club, and if we didn’t talk about food enough, I’ll play
our live reviews from the promenade as we review samples from each
Wonderland kiosk at Epcot’s International Food & Wine Festival.
It’s a first-hand, on-the-spot review of many of the culinary delights
being offered at the Festival from now through November 9, 2008.
We’ll also talk about other events throughout the week, and the
Inaugural Expedition Everest Challenge 5K race that took place this
past Saturday. Many of us faced the Yeti and lived to tell about it, so
here’s our recap of the race and party.
I also have an exclusive interview with Steve Schussler, the creator of
the Rainforest Café, Yak & Yeti and Downtown Disney’s newest dining
experience, the T-Rex Café. He joins me to talk about his incredible
personal journey, and the creation of some of Walt Disney World’s most
unique restaurants.
Finally, I’ll reveal the Grand Prize Winner of the Adventureland Challenge Contest, and crown the Ultimate Adventurer.
Stay tuned at the end of the show for more information and
announcements, as well as your voicemails, but for now, just sit back,
relax, and enjoy this week's episode of the WDW Radio Show.
