WDW Reflections Podcast - Ep 17 - Echoes of Star Wars Weekends 2006

Howdy, folks!


This week, the boys were caught in the holiday crush and couldn't get together to provide the new show they wanted to. However, as a special audio-only treat, they thought they'd share a very special archived podcast from 2006, which features Dewey and Tony as they reflect on Star Wars Weekends - LIVE from Disney's MGM Studios in May of that year.

In 2006, Tony was a co-host of a Star Wars related podcast called, "Echo 3 to Echo 7". In May of that year, he invited Dewey to call in to him, Live from the Parks, to talk about what he was experiencing. What you are about to listen to is the complete episode of that podcast, which isn't too unlike the show we provide to you now, 15 years later!

This was the first ever full length conversation between Dewey and Tony, and is full of a great eyes-on perspective of how Disney was celebrating Star Wars that year - a half dozen years before they would actually own the property!


Since this week also marks the 50th Anniversary of the formation of Lucasfilm, we thought it might be fun for you to listen to the complete program, as it details the history of Lucasfilm and Disney Parks up to that time.

See ya next week for a special show dedicated to more of the Lucasfilm/Disney connection.

Enjoy and let us know what you think!

Best,
