You had me worried there. If another two or three weeks went by without a podcast, I might’ve had to check to see if Ryno’s essay ever came out. And then I’d probably watch an old episode of this show again because this is where the best Disney discussion is.
Eric, good to hear you enjoyed yourself and were pleasantly surprised by Pittsburgh (my hometown, well about 20 miles south). Now on to the podcast… you and Nick are a great team. Hopefully Nick doesn’t feel too much pressure and continues to be “a special guest” with you!!
So glad Eric and Nick are still together doing these podcasts. Now we need a logo (like News Tonight) for the Podcast featuring Eric Morton and Nick LoCicero. Then Nick can’t get fired from the podcast… his name is on the sign. 😂❤
Love,love,love your podcast Eric!! I enjoy listening to you go off topic! I also agree with you on having to let go of WDW never changing. It’s been hard but I’m trying to understand. Nick is an awesome unofficial host❤
...& the Bantha (Peoplemover) ride that was budget cut at both lands. The one at Disneyland had the infrastructure built for this ride, it just needed to be installed!
it still puzzles me that they didn’t choose to use the og star wars for galaxy’s edge.. like what a great way to alienate not only people who don’t like star wars, but also the diehard star wars fans who hate the new disney made films lol. it was probably just iger wanting to flex his new ip 🙄
I agree that the big open floor plans are so LOUD and is that really a good idea in a place where there's bound to be a lot of small children? Little kids can be great, but they tend to be loud because they're figuring out how to express themselves.
Next time you're in Pittsburgh about an hour away is the Summit Inn. It's a cool historic hotel. Also near the Inn is Frank Lloyd Wrights' Falling Water, amazing architecture, worth a visit.
Re-watching. The center of EPCOT had the Fountain, with water from all the countries, with the fountain show every quarter-hour. The music loop! And just beyond that, the EPCOT Rose on the ground (compass rose). I wish they could have kept these.
So when I took my partner to Disneyland in May we couldn't go into the Mansion. So we have to go back because that's the thing he wants to see the most. And I don't want to take him to WDW because he needs to see Animal Kingdom Lodge if nothing else, but I don't want him to see Hatty in that spot... I was starting to soften on that thought... but you have revitalized my resolve! Thank you.
Disney said they were going to bring back a familiar song for The Country Bears. I was hoping they were going to bring back "The Great Outdoors" to the show. Other than that, they did well with the bears. Maybe they could bring back Horizons by putting it in the Wonders of Life building, they just put a new roof on the building. The Imagination Pavilion needs a complete overhaul! Hello From Phoenix Arizona 🌡 🔥
30:30 The problem with "Star Wars Land" is that it is not kinetic. Guests are essentially walking around an outdoor movie set with close to zero characters and interactivity that makes Star Wars what it is. For example, characters everywhere you turn, a stunt show, etc.
I rode Tiana's Bayou Adventure 5 Times 5 Days in a row (Once Per Day) on my trip a week and a half ago. That completed my 16th Ride on it. Everything mostly worked for me every time. Mainly the thing that didn't work was that water over you when you get shrunk down and go into the Log. The last Tiana's arms didn't work once, and the 2nd Louis' Arms were stuck in a weird position once. (Both on my recent 5. The first 11 at the D23 Event had almost no Malfunctions. Everything corrected itself by the next ride through). I think the Ride is great and wish it hasn't gotten as much hate as it has. It's a decent ride.
Country Bear Musical Jamboree is ok. It's missing the humor, and the songs have to play out longer. It can be so much better, but thankfully it doesn't need too much work to do so. By the time you realize what the song is, it's over.
Oh please Disney is cheep they will never spend the extra money to make it right almost all the restaurants need sound proof added. The new hall is just that a hall that they can charge your company to up grade for a cost to rent out
You respond to the changes with your wallet because nothing else matters. It's not the old days of Disney where they care about the guest experience. They care about your money and also your money but most of all, they care about your money. 🤑
The song references the Creek War, uses slang terms for natives, and is altogether wrapped up in America's continued self-reflection on westward expansion. Even if Crockett was more sympathetic to the natives than his contemporaries, there's a reason westerns are out of style.
But it’s okay to say pirates are fun, jolly men with on;y good intentions. And WDW sells the swords for kids to fight with. Now I think pirates is fine…….and so was davey’s song. We have to stop re-writing history or we are bound to repeat it.
It also seems like frontier land is slowly disappearing……..the shooting range is now gone, pecks bills is a shadow of its former self now that there is no fixin bar. Why not turn the area into New Orleans square like land?
Can someone tell Eric to stop talking on and on? I would like to hear Nick please…..nothing personal..I love Eric, but he needs to breathe…..goes on for too long….thank you….its a great show. Got to have more balance..
I love Nick's take on things. Please keep him as an unofficial host.
Glad the podcast is back, had me worried there for a second. Keep up the good work lads.

Adam the Woo was here for Pickleburgh also.
Happy you guys are back, love when Nick joins. I would be great to have all three when Tom is home 😊
Empty solo cup! Yes please 😂
Love Nicks positive attitude

Till he spills bourbon in the new studio😂
So happy you're back!
Have watched every episode, and hope they continue for many more

Thank you guys!!!! I got back from Disney yesterday and the magnet was there, I love her so much!
Galaxy’s Edge would be better if you add the Original Trilogy.

I work for Solo Cup, I would be thrilled to have Nicks Solo cup!
Fun episode guys . Thx

the fountain music 💖😭
Run into any of the furrys from anthrocon in Pittsburgh? lol
I was there lol. Pittsburgh is a wonderful city
Pittsburgh weddings = huge cookie tables [homemade Italian cookies].
Eric, that’s it! You’ve got it right 🎉 Putting the Hat Box Ghost at the beginning of the HM ride is LAZY. Spot on!
I want Nick’s Solo Cup!! With Gertie signature!!
Nick, you’re right! I also think that the imagineers held back and used items for the SW hotel
Hook’s Barbery is absolutely fabulous one of my favorite things on the Wish! Have to see Marcelo he made the best Old Fashions
Responsibility and pay hahaha. Its fun either way
I’d love to hear a Big Al’s version of Not in Nottingham. Or any a Country Bear version for that matter.

I want Nicks used solo cup… actually i need it but thats not the phrase !
We need tom/ erics take on the new reeses olympic medal peanut butter cups
Really enjoy Nick on the podcast!

Hello From Phoenix Arizona 🌡 🔥
We saw the Disney Dream in Santorini in June.
OK we need s nick and Leigh episode so we can get her side of all these stories

From where they are standing now, it would now be "out with the new (which failed a lot), back with the old."
who would turn down hosting news tonight!

Totally agree with you, Hat Box Ghost in DW is out of place
will WDWNT Thursday night ever return ?
August 15th!
Oh please Disney is cheep they will never spend the extra money to make it right almost all the restaurants need sound proof added. The new hall is just that a hall that they can charge your company to up grade for a cost to rent out
So glad to know that there are fellow Pro Wrestling fans here

I’ll take the cup
Aww Nick.
I would love to see Nick on when Tom comes back!
So the Bayou is basically Uva Bar?
I never thought about it like that, but yeah, sorta.
It's really dorky to be so upset over hb ghost location
It’s also dorky to podcast about Disney World and to listen to podcasts about Disney World lol
Tom there?
Regarding the country baers…..why couldn’t they have retained the davey Crockett tune….was there something offensive about that song?
The song references the Creek War, uses slang terms for natives, and is altogether wrapped up in America's continued self-reflection on westward expansion. Even if Crockett was more sympathetic to the natives than his contemporaries, there's a reason westerns are out of style.

This may be a low point for me, but I want Nick's used Solo cup! 🤦🏻♀️😆
Is there anyway to have fans on the podcast?
Can someone tell Eric to stop talking on and on? I would like to hear Nick please…..nothing personal..I love Eric, but he needs to breathe…..goes on for too long….thank you….its a great show. Got to have more balance..
