Fancy new logo

Tonight, “See Ya’ Real Late” with Tom Corless celebrates its 5th anniversary with a 2-hour, LIVE celebration! For a half-decade, this “fake late night talk show” has been combining guest interviews and WDWNT’s unique comedy styling and characters in a LIVE, unpredictable, and interactive program. Tonight, we celebrate in style with a double-sized show featuring listener favorites and completely new concepts. To listen to the show, you can tune in at listen.WDWNT.com, use the TuneIn Radio App, or use our own custom app (links below).

Tonight’s guests include the casts of the WDWNT Original Programs “Nerd Alert” and “The Jedi, Hero, and Princess Show”. There will also be many cameos and callbacks to the over 5 years of hilarity and hi-jinks that made the show one of the most popular (yet controversial) ever unleashed onto the Disney online community.

The most unique aspect of tonight’s show is the first-ever edition of “WDWNT: The Match Game PM”, an uncensored, more risque version of the popular game from the WDWNT Podcast and WDW News Today: The Radio show! We are currently looking for contestants for tonight’s game available between 10PM & 12AM EST this evening. Please email us at wdwnewstoday@gmail.com if you would like to play. Two contestants will chosen from the pool at random.

Every year since 2008, WDW News Today has hosted a charity drive to raise money for the Toys for Tots Foundation. To date, we have raised over $20,000 for this amazing organization with donations through our website and those made during our annual WDWNT Live! program on Thanksgiving weekend. This year, we are taking the event to a whole new level, and we are asking you to be a part of this holiday tradition where we continue Walt Disney’s dream and try to make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate.

Over 60 years ago, Walt Disney became one of the original sponsors of the Toys for Tots foundation, which ensures that every underprivileged child receives a toy during the holiday season. Walt and his animators personally designed the original Toys for Tots train logo that is still used today and the first poster created for Toys for Tots. It was also 60 years ago that Walt’s dream of Disneyland and the Disney Parks began, so…

In this spirit, WDW News Today and our many friends and partners are putting on our first-ever 60-HOUR live broadcast to raise money for Toys for Tots. We hope you will join us beginning at 9AM ET on November 27, 2014 when the broadcast begins and will help us by making a donation to this great cause at toys.WDWNT.com.

We are proud to announce Theme Park Connection once again as the official sponsor of this year’s show and charity drive. As part of their sponsorship, they are accepting cash and/or sealed, brand-new toy donations in-person at their Orlando store location and providing prizes for all of the many games that will be played during the course of the live program.

A portion of our 60-hour broadcast will be conducted live from their store on Friday, November 27th, from 9:00AM until 5:00PM EST. You are invited to watch us broadcast live or even be a part of the show in-person during this period. Theme Park Connection can be visited online at ThemeParkConnection.com or at their physical store location at 2160 Premier Row in Orlando, Florida, near the Florida Mall.

For the first-time-ever, there will also be an in-person portion happening at the Walt Disney World Resort on Saturday, November 28th from 1:00PM-5:00PM at Disney’s Old Key West Resort. This portion of the show will include “Cooking with Nick”, as Nick LoCiciero of WDWNT: The Radio Show tries to convince us that he can make several dishes from the Epcot Food & Wine Festival even better than the Disney chefs can. This event will also include additional surprises, but requires pre-registration to attend. To pre-register, send an email to wdwnewstoday@gmail.com with your name, how many are in your party, and if you or anyone in your party has any food allergies. Of those who email, a select few will e chosen to attend due to the size of the venue.
