Listener Feedback Friday!
In this week’s Listener Feedback:
First, Mark and Mike chatted a bit about some MouseFest thoughts, since it’s
less than a week away.
Madeline of Germany wrote in to tell us about about the response that she
receives when she wears her Princess-themed shirts at Walt Disney World.
Mark and Mike then talked about things that they’ve worn to Walt Disney
World that have attracted a lot of attention.
Mike Hamilton from the Disney Podcast Directory wrote in to laugh about
our appearance on the MouseGuest Weekly Podcast last week. (We appeared
on Mouse Guest Weekly’s Show #121 to talk about our MouseFest meets. You
can check it out on the show
archives page or go straight to downloading
the show.) While talking about MousssseFest, we got into a discussion
of how there was a character named Chocolate Mousse in a spy spoof that
starred Val Kilmer. Mike was shouting at the podcast until we came up with
Top Secret!
Mike Demo then finally realized that Mark was actually talking about a
movie that other people knew about.
Mary (Tinker) wrote to sign up for the Hustle-tini meet and recommend that
everybody download the video of Mike doing The Hustle from last year’s MouseFest,
either through the iTunes
feed of the Magical Moment Podcast or directly from the old Magical
Moment site. (You can see Mike with glitter in his hair from his Main
Street haircut.)
Mike and Mark then talked a bit about Mike’s friend Sean, who is in the
foreground of the video. Mike thinks that he might still be there, so Mark
suggested that, if Sean is still there, he could help in the Hustle instruction
for the meet.
Joe in LA wrote to thank us for following up on his suggestion in Listener
Feedback on Episode 67 to add some additional short subject segments that
we can rotate in and out of the Monday show. He likes the Six Degrees idea,
but doesn’t want us to limit it to The Lion King as the end point, since
there are so many other great possibilities.
Joe didn’t like Mike’s suggestion that he come up with roundabout ways
to link films, since the purpose of Six Degrees is to find the shortest
path between the two target films. Revealing the films in advance is preferable,
though, because having Mike cast about during the segment doesn’t make for
a good segment.
Joe then offered up a challenge on how to get from the Mouseketeers to
The Monkees, and provided a path that included Annette Funicello, O.J. Simpson,
Mike Lookinland and Davy Jones.
Mark noted that we will continue to try out new segments, and Mike doesn’t
know what the new trial segment for next Monday will be yet.
Wayne Goergen wrote in response to our second new trial segment, “Three
Wishes,” where we gave our three wishes for the Disney-MGM Studios
(soon to be Disney’s Hollywood Studios). Wayne’s three wishes were:
