WDW Radio # 746 - How Disneyland's Origins Have Impacted Walt Disney World - From the WDW Radio Archives
With Walt Disney World's anniversary coming up on October 1... and this incredible sense of nostalgia and sentiment I have been feeling lately... it prompted my idea for this week's visit to the Archives, and this past week's LIVE show. Thank you for tuning in and being part of our WDW Radio LIVE show on Wed Sept. 20 where we boarded the Wayback Machine and took a trip down Walt Disney World's Memory Lane! We dove into some Disney nostalgia as we share memories of days gone by in Walt Disney World, and I shared a number of vintage photos from the parks... and me back in the 70's... and we all shared attractions, shows, resorts, and of course food that we remember and miss. You can watch the replay and be part of the community and conversation by going to WDWRadio.com/Video).
And that got me to thinking about the origins of Walt Disney World... and inspirations. So this week, we're going back to Show # 179 from early 2010, because Walt Disney World traces much of its roots to the original Disneyland in California, and with Walt Disney World's anniversary coming up, it’s only appropriate that we take a look at how some of Disneyland’s origins have impacted Walt Disney World. Jim Korkis joined me to share some of the true stories behind the stories, as we start in Fantasyland with Cinderella Castle and look back at exactly how and where Disneyland began. And Jim shared not just stories that have never been told before, but Walt’s own words that served as the proposal for what would be come Disneyland, and includes many amazing ideas that carried forward to become what we see today in Walt Disney World.

But for now... sit back, relax, and enjoy this week's episode from the Archives on the WDW Radio show.

We'll explore the evolution of the Haunted Mansion, as well as its myths and legends. And speaking of Legends, as we step into the Mansion's sinister halls, we'll uncover the creative minds behind the attraction, such as Ken Anderson, Claude Coates, Mark Davis, and Rolly Crump.
