Walt Quote Wednesday

We are bringing back a feature we did for a while last year. 

Our latest entry for Walt Quote Wednesday is from an interview of Walt Disney by Fletcher Markle for the Canadian Broadcasting Company on September 25, 1963. Taken from the 2023 book 'The Official Walt Disney Quote Book' by the staff of the Walt Disney Archives.

“I actually started to plan the picture about 1935. And I fooled around with it, trying to get a hold of a story and things, for a couple years, and finally it began to jell, then I went to work on it and I finished in the fall of 1937. I didn't know what I had or what would happen or anything. We had the family fortune, we had everything wrapped up in Snow White. I fact the bankers, I think, were losing more sleep than I was. And fortunately, though, when we out it in and premiered it and everything else, why everything was fine and the bankers were happy"

Random Disney A to Z Entry

A segment we used to do on the Talking Disney Podcast was the Random Disney A to Z Entry. During this segment we would choose a random entry from the Disney A to Z: The Official Encyclopedia (5th Edition) and share it with the listeners. We are bringing that segment to pages of the Talking Disney Podcast website. Originally created by Disney Legend Dave Smith, this is the first edition since his passing on February 15, 2019. Steven Vagnini, who collaborated with Dave on the two previous editions and has since taken on the task of updating this amazing book!

"If you're curious about the Walt Disney Company, this comprehensive newly revised and updated encyclopedia is your one-stop guide! Filled with significant achievements, short biographies, historic dates, and tons of trivia-worthy tidbits and anecdotes, this newly updated collection covers all things Disney - from A to Z - through more than nine thousand entries.

The sixth edition includes all the major Disney theme park attractions, restaurants, and shows; summaries of ABC and Disney television shows and Disney+ series; rundowns on all major films and characters; the latest and greatest from Pixar, Marvel, and Lucasfilm; key actors, songs, and animators from Disney films and shows; an so much more!" - from the back cover of Disney A to Z: The Official Encyclopedia.

Featured Disneyland Resort Attraction: Jumpin' Jellyfish

Each week (maybe more often) I will feature a random current attraction from the Disneyland Resort here on the Talking Disney Podcast website. The first random featured attraction we are highlighting is the Jumpin’ Jellyfish at Disney California Adventure Park.

The Jumpin' Jellyfish attraction is located in Paradise Gardens Park of Disney California Adventure Park at the Disneyland Resort. The attraction opened on February 8, 2001 and is an original Disney California Adventure Park attraction.
