Podcasting has changed a lot during the past 10 years, particularly for Disney shows. Initially, it was amazing to even hear from other fans whose passion went far beyond even my own. I enjoyed listening to Ricky Brigante, Lou Mongello, and the WDW Today guys describing their latest trips to Walt Disney World. I’ve been hooked on podcasts ever since. The technology and skills of podcasters just keeps improving, and it’s hardly a simple operation anymore. Shows like WEDWay Radio have expanded the format into more than just speculating on the latest news. Co-hosts Nate and Matt Parrish dive into history of Walt Disney and the parks and go well beyond expected topics.
Matt Parrish is my guest on Episode 42 of the Tomorrow Society Podcast. He also hosts the Thirty20Eight podcast with Kevin Quigley, and they cover both history and the current parks. Matt and I discuss his work on WEDWay Radio and the Thirty20Eight and each show’s origins. We also cover the differences in hosting a live presentation versus an audio podcast. This is the final season of WEDWay Radio, and Matt talks about the reasons for concluding the show after such a long time.
Matt lives on the other side of Missouri in Springfield, so we spend a little time on Silver Dollar City. That park has some truly odd attractions, so I had to get Matt’s thoughts on them. Both WEDWay Radio and The Thirty20Eight are definitely worth your time, and it was great to have the chance to speak with Matt.
