Backstage at Universal and Magic Golden Tickets
The Light Em And Hide Themepark Podcast
Universal Team Members aren't as well-known as their counterparts over at Disney World for guest service. In recent years, we have really had some out of this world experiences with Team Members at Universal Studios Orlando. This episode is a quick story about what a senior Team Leader did out of the blue at my family's second favorite attraction. You can love both places, and there are Cast Members and Team Members at each place that will go above and beyond to make your day better. Enjoy some back stage tales and brush your alien hair.

My trip to Disney Springs was interrupted by an incident that was so funny I had to report. Hope it makes you laugh. No country bears or pretzel bites were harmed in the recording of this quick podcast.

Live from Disney's Wilderness Lodge, Magic Kingdom and more
The Light Em And Hide Themepark Podcast
Just a quick hello from a few locations as I relaxed in the sun and enjoyed the blessings of a beautiful day at some of my favorite places. Enjoy, and if you can afford it, buy at Copper Creek. I was shocked and someday I would like to have a piece of that peace.

Greetings from ground zero of The GREAT STINK OFF. A tongue in cheek at the Run Disney and Halloween Horror Nights events which are going on today here in Orlando Florida. Who is the most ripe? the guests who just ran 10 kilometers in the Florida heat, or the folks in all black HHN garb that have been sweating all day in the hopes of being first in line for Holiday decorations are up at the Walt Disney World. Holiday merchandise featuring Earl the Squirrel is on sale and available at the Islands of Adventure annual pass-holder lounge. Congratulations to all the runners/walkers out there....

Litem Jr gets luckier at Disney Animal Kingdom
The Light Em And Hide Themepark Podcast
Litem Jr tells the tale of how he got his new "Isle of Berk" shirt from the not yet opened Universal Studios EPIC Adventure on his very own podcast. Recorded live from Disney Animal Kingdom, he also reviews Everest after his first time riding it. (This leaves only Velocicoaster and Hulk? as the only two Sea World, Disney, and Universal Coasters on both coasts that he has not ridden) > He's much braver than I was at age 9. (and maybe than I still am)
