WDWNTunes Announces “Super WDWNTunes Saturday”

WDWNTunes is proud to announce our most exciting day of programming ever, with our signature WDWNT Live! show, new original programming, WDWNT Network podcasts, and the Disney Parks music you love. “Super WDWNTunes Saturday” is a special event that defines everything that the online radio station & chat room is about.

The event begins with the wildly popular and first-ever WDWNTunes original program, Brandon and Banks’ Super Obscure Show. B&B S.O.S. is a show dedicated to obscure Disney audio and is usually featured twice a day on WDWNTunes. For this one time only special event, you can catch all 4 of the first episodes of the show in a row beginning at 10:00 AM ET.

For the first time in history, an episode of the popular WDW News Today Podcast will debut on WDWNTunes.com before being available for download. Episode 130 of the WDWNT Podcast will be airing beginning at 1:45 PM ET and contains what the podcast team has already described as “the best and funniest segment we’ve ever recorded”.

The first episode of the very first podcast dedicated to the collecting, trading, and creation of Vinylmation debuted earlier this week, it’s called The Viylmation Station. Super WDWNTunes Saturday will feature the innovative podcast starting at 4:00 PM ET, giving listeners a chance to hear Tom Corless, John Rick, and Scott Smith dissect Disney’s latest collectible craze.

WDWNTunes hosted a live chat on February 10th to give Disney fans a place to communicate live as major announcements were made about the future of the Walt Disney World Resort. While the exciting chat was taking place, a record WDWNTunes audience enjoyed a special mix of Disney audio called “WDW Through the Years”. The music selection took listeners on an audio journey from the opening of Walt Disney World in 1971 to the debut of Disney’s Honorary VoluntEARS Cavalcade in January. The audio was so popular with listeners that we have decided to play it one more time during Super WDWNTunes Saturday beginning at 6:00 PM ET.

The festivities end with a WDWNTunes trademark, “WDWNT Live!”. This is a live interactive program that gives listeners a chance to interact with WDWNT Network staff members from WDW News Today, Disneyland News Today, The Disney Pincast, and The Vinylmation Station, as well as fellow listeners in the chat room. This first-ever Saturday presentation of WDWNT Live! begins at 9:30 PM ET.

Super WDWNTunes Saturday begins at 10:00 AM ET and is the biggest event in WDWNTunes history, so be sure to join us at www.WDWNTunes.com this Saturday, February 13, 2010.

WDWNT Network Coverage of the D23 Expo 9/10-9/13/09

When D23: The Official Disney Fan Community debuted on March 10, 2009, we had a pretty good idea that it was something that would forever change what it meant to be a “Disney Fan”. We were made a ton of promises and I think Disney has come through on just about all of them, to their credit. The biggest promise they made was that the first ever Disney fan convention called the D23 Expo would be “the ultimate Disney fan experience”. In our continuing effort to bring you Disney news as it happens (who are we kidding, we wouldn’t miss this for the world anyway), the WDWNT Network crew is heading to the D23 Expo in Anaheim to provide you with as much coverage of the event as we possibly can. Mind you, we can’t bring you everything because there is just far too many panels, presentations, and exhibits spanning the 4 days of the event (as you can see by the 74 pages of guide book it takes to explain and showcase all that the D23 Expo has to offer). To follow live coverage from the various events of the D23 Expo, you can regularly check the WDW News Today and Disneyland News Today news blogs, as well as follow the WDWNT Twitter and myself on Facebook for the most frequent updates we can possibly provide.

For those who are actually coming to the D23 Expo in Anaheim, we are proud to announce that we will be having yet another WDWNT Fan Meet in Disneyland Park on Friday, September 11th. The meet is a great opportunity to escape the Anaheim Convention Center for a few hours after the floor closes and take in Disneyland with fellow Disney fans and WDWNT Network staff. You can find out more information about this meet on Facebook and on the WDWNT Network Community Forums.

There will also be a special post-Expo review podcast (featuring audio from the various events, interviews, and much more) on WDW News Today Podcast episode 111 and Disneyland News Today Podcast episode 81.

We hope you will join us for and enjoy all of our coverage from the D23 Expo!

Tom Corless
Owner of the WDWNT Network
