Your Guide to Disney Parks & ExperiencesHello, my friend! We made it!!!! YOU made this happen! 800 episodes of WDW Radio and nearly 20 years of podcasting... I am grateful in ways that would take me too long to describe in this newsletter. But thank you... and congratulations to YOU! Whether your new to the WDW Radio family or you've been with me since Day 1, I'm truly honored that you've allowed me to come into your home, your iPod nano, Zune, iRiver, eMachine, iPhone 8 or whatever device you listen to the podcast on. Together, WE have reached Episode 800. We're a community. We're a family... and we're not done yet. Did I mention there's an announcement coming tomorrow? Stay tuned to the WDW Radio site, Clubhouse, and maybe even a special newsletter! But most importantly... None of this happens without you. That includes the incredible opportunity and privilege you made happen... In this week’s WDW Radio episode, I had the honor of sitting down with Disney Legend Joe Rohde. We talked about his incredible work on projects like Disney’s Animal Kingdom and Pandora, as well as his passion for wildlife conservation, including his expeditions to save endangered snow leopards. Joe shared stories of adventure, creativity, and how we can all make a difference. Don’t miss this amazing conversation! 🎧 Subscribe and listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. 📺 Watch the full interview on YouTube here. 🐾 Learn more about Joe’s snow leopard event in Orlando on Sat. Oct. 5 here. What is one question you would ask Joe Rohde? Let me know! Speaking of events... Tickets for our 🎩 Evening at the Tip Top Club event on Sat. Oct. 26 at Disney's Hollywood Studios, sponsored by our friends at Mouse Fan Travel, are now on sale and are going FAST! 📅 And for other events, I hope you can join us at our next Meet of the Month in Oct. as we say farewell to Dinoland, USA, Disney cruises, river cruises, Adventures by Disney to Japan, Disneyland, and Paris, and more, visit our Events page for full list of everything coming up! Oh, and I'm sorry, but there won't be an episode of WDW Radio LIVE tonight, but I'll see you next week! 🤗 Please connect and chat with me on Instagram or LinkedIn, and be part of the community and conversation in the WDW Radio Clubhouse. For even more fun, exclusive rewards and opportunities, and to help support the show, please join the 💙 WDW Radio Nation where your contribution helps our Dream Team Project, which supports Make-A-Wish. Stay tuned, check out the blog, keep moving forward, and as always, thank you for being part of our incredible Disney community and family! Have a great weekend! Thank you! P.S. What do you think of the formatting of this email as compared to past ones? How can I improve it or what else would you like to see? Just reply to this email and let me know your honest thoughts!
