This episode is for all those Disney-MGM Studios lovers out there. We begin with a morning meandering over to the park, ride the parking lot tram to the front gates, and experience the rope drop. Once in the park, Patrick runs into Saul during the Star Tours pre-show. We find out that Saul is somewhat of a Star Wars nerd and a fastpass is issued for a fist fight between the two tourists (take special notice Patrick's deadpan reaction to the madness). To continue with the odd humor, we head next door to take in the Muppets 3D Pre-Show which is my favorite part of the entire attraction. Next up, we hitch a ride on that crazy old cursed elevator at The Tower of Terror Meandering Mouse style. Last at the Studios, The Meandering Minnie and I take a whack at Who Wants to be a Millionaire, Play it! Come along with us and test your ability in regurgitating useless knowledge.

**Headphones Suggested** This show begins with some truly unique WDW sound oddities. Come along with me as I explore one of the wackiest Disney World attractions: The audio pumped into the different restrooms around the resort. Don't worry because no offensive sounds are heard; just weird audio that accompanies you on your business trips while at the world. There are some other Disney park sound oddities thrown in as a surprise! Next, experience The Festival of the Lion King at Disney's Animal Kingdom. The Meandering Minnie and I check the show out for the very first time on our last trip and you're there with us enjoying the show! The audio truly shines for this wonderful live performance. Last, stick around for some great listener feedback...there has been a lot of it lately.  This week's show picture is the infamous women's chair toilet up in Disneyland's Club33.

**Rated PG-Headphones Suggested** This edition of the Meandering Mouse takes on a different and somewhat of a reflective tone as I prepare my mind and spirit for an upcoming Disneyland trip at the end of August. The audio featured on this episode of The Meandering Mouse is 100% from Disneyland...the original that started it all!

First, we revisit some of the very first audio clips I took while I first meandered through Disneyland back in October of 2005. The Meandering Mouse wasn't even thought of at this point because I didn't have a podcast. This type of audio is RARE...I don't know of any other Disney podcasters that have audio recorded of themselves experiencing Disneyland for the very first time. It really takes me back to that special feeling I had walking around alone in Walt's original park for the very first time on a chilly evening in October...I even get LOST which is funny to hear now that I know the parks on both coasts like the back of my hand.

The other neat thing in regards to these recordings is that you can hear how the quality of my meanderings have improved over time. To be honest, the quality is quite rough on these early recordings...levels are all over the place and there are some spots with some REALLY NASTY wind and vibration. It is quite listenable though...no doubt about that.

After the early first steps into Disneyland recordings, I shift gears and play some newer audio from my trip to DL this past Feb. However, the audio is just of me literally meandering through the park with no purpose. It's fun to come along with me as I take in my surroundings and point out certain details I notice along the way.

Next, we visit The Sorcerer's Workshop at The Animation Building in Cali Adventure where myself and my Disneyland Cast Member friend (Toast) take Disney personality tests using the enchanted books in the Beauty and the Beast Library.

Last, I leave you with a high quality and fun experience over at Monsters Inc. I think this is one of my best recordings of one of the newest attraction at DL. I finally captured one of my favorite gags and details of the attraction while making my way through the queue area.

**Rated PG-Headphones Suggested** This episode begins with the RETURN OF SAUL and his Disney park adventures. Join Saul as he experiences a trip through Florida's Fantasyland. Of course, Saul's journey through Fantasyland is a tad short on the fantasy and we can safely say that he visited something more like Scaryland. Next, The Meandering Minnie and I enjoy Philharmagic where we experience a bit more fantasy than poor ole' Saul. After leaving Fantasyland, we travel outside of the Disney bubble and hit the streets of Orlando to explore the creepiness of off-property souvenir shops. No comforting or pleasant souvenirs are found. Instead, we discover some of the oddest objects on Earth. Last, The Meandering Mouse returns to DISNEYLAND to explore some sound oddities and take a ride on The Sailing Ship Columbia. In the sound oddity portion of the Disneyland audio, we stumble upon Maynard, the rather famous but odd Disneyland cast member, as he tells us a really weird story on Main Street. We also stop in New Orleans Square and discover that Californians have NO rhythm whatsoever while we listen to a live street act. This episode is packed full of goodies so get ready for some fun!!!  Thanks to everyone that has made donations to The Meandering Mouse and The Disney Podcast Network thru the show website!
