After the months of waiting, the Disneyland News Today Podcast would like to announce the premiere of our very first GAME SHOW!  It will be modeled after the popular game show Family Feud.  The DLNT podcast team will go head-to-head to find out who knows our fans better.  Where does the FAN-ly part come in?  That’s where you come in.  We need YOU…that’s right, you, the fans…to help us put this show together.  We need you to complete a short survey relating to the Disneyland Resort in order to put together the statistics needed for the show.  The more people we get to complete the survey, the better.  So call up your friends and tell them to do it.  Get your mom to do it.  Get your dog to do it.  Even non-Disney fans can do it.  All the cool people are doing it.  The show cannot go on without your help. The Game Show will debut on Episode 40 of the Disneyland News Today Podcast.

Some things to remember:
1. You may only take the survey once per IP address so make it count!
2. This survey ONLY applies to the Disneyland Resort (this includes Disneyland, Disney California Adventure, Downtown Disney, and all Disney owned hotels).
3. Answer honestly with how YOU would answer it and not how you think other people would answer it.
4. You don’t have to answer every question.  If you can’t think of something for any question feel free to skip it.

HAVE FUN!

This survey will close on October 1st, 2010 .  So hurry and fill it out now!

WDWNTunes presents “Super “See Ya’ Real Late” Sunday”

When the WDWNT Network announced a late night Disney talk show concept back in May, many questioned if Tom Corless, Chris Lastrapes, Jose Castillo (and the Soundboard Band), and the rest of the WDWNT crew could carry out the project. Could they combine interviews with the Disney online community with a comedy show that was actually funny? Apparently, the listeners of this program think so! Since the debut episode back on June 16th, “See Ya’ Real Late” with Tom Corless has been drawing record numbers of listeners to WDWNTunes, the WDWNT Network’s online radio station. In celebration of the successful first season and season finale of this one-of-a-kind LIVE program, WDWNTunes is dedicating Sunday to “See Ya’ Real Late”.

The fun begins at 1PM ET with a marathon of the first 9 episodes of season 1. If you missed any of the excitement of these episodes during their original airings, this is your chance to catch each and every episode of the entire first season back to back. Don’t miss all of the incredible interviews, moments, and skits that have made this show such a success. Following that, our virtual red carpet returns with hosts Brandon Struve and Banks Lee of the WDWNTunes Super Obscure Show. Banks and Brandon will be walking up and down the carpet, interviewing guests as they arrive for the HUGE season finale.

Finally, it’s the main event, the season finale of “See Ya’ Real Late” with Tom Corless, starting at 11PM ET. There is literally too much show! Following the events of Wednesday night’s show, members of D64 (the anti-D23 coalition) will be invading to battle D23 members in a war to finally settle the score. We’ll also etch the final chapter in the “Lou-Log” and find out if Lou Mongello of the WDW Radio show has accepted the invitation to appear. Tom also welcomes guests Suzannah DiMarzio of the “Zannaland” blog and Paul Barrie of “A Window to the Magic”. If all of that wasn’t enough, listeners can expect a few HUGE surprises that promise this show will be a shocking one from start to finish!

Don’t miss Super “See Ya’ Real Late” Sunday, a celebration of WDWNT Network’s revolutionary LIVE late night talk show. Again, the fun begins Sunday, August 22nd, 2010, at 1PM ET, with the season 1 marathon, continues with the virtual red carpet special at 10:30PM ET, and concludes with the historic season finale of “See Ya’ Real Late” with Tom Corless at 11:00PM ET, all at www.WDWNTunes.com. We hope to see you there!

“See Ya’ Real Late” Debuts Tonight!!!

Heeeeeeere’s Tommy! Get ready for a summer of fun with “See Ya’ Real Late”, WDWNT Network’s new late night talk show! Hosted by Tom Corless, and featuring Chris Lastrapes and Jose Castillo, it’s a weekly late night talk style show with a monologue, sketches & guest interviews. The fun starts tonight, June 16th, and runs throughout the summer! Get excited for your late night Disney fix, exclusively at www.WDWNTunes.com starting at 11PM ET!

A little word about it from Tom Corless about the show: “This late night talks show is only one piece of a HUGE summer promotion for the WDWNT Network we will be revealing very soon, but it may be the part I’m most excited about. I’ve always admired late night talk shows, from Carson to Conan; I think it’s something missing from the Disney online community and we’re pretty confident it will be successful during this summer trial run.”

Exclusive Interview w/Co-Creator of the Main Street Electrical Parade, Ron Miziker!

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing one of the co-creators of the Main Street Electrical Parade (and the creator of the the Polynesian Luau, Hoop-De-Doo-Review, and Diamond Horseshoe Saloon Revue, among many other Disney World entertainment offerings), Ron Miziker. You can hear the entire interview on Episode 140 of the WDW News Today Podcast, which is available for download now on our podcast directory page and on Itunes through subscription to the podcast only.
