have a special guest, Michael Crawford, a longtime Walt Disney World
fan who wrote the book: Progress City Primer.  This book contains all
kinds of stories, features and just a grab bag of anything WDW. Starting
off with Walt and moving on from there, you will find everything from
EPCOT Center to unbuilt attractions and lands. The book sometimes even
matches many of our previous episodes, which is really cool. Check out
this great book and even gift one for the holidays.Main Topic - We sit down and watch a fully restored version of "The Magic of Walt Disney World".
This is an original 16mm copy of the film that would have been sent to
schools, local clubs and anywhere else back in 1972. The reel is 1200ft
long and we have the only restored copy in existence. 35 listeners
donated funds for this project, which included shipping, transfer and of
course restoration. This really should be listened to, as you watch the
film to get the full experience, you can watch the film here. You can also read fantastic annotated notes for the film written by @MKPony.Audio Rewind -
Congratulations to our winner, Justin, he guessed the Tiki Statues in
Adventureland. Justin will get the King Stefan's Banquet Hall glass mug.
