CoasterRadio.com #302 - Our Third Anniversary Podcast
We launched CoasterRadio.com on April 25, 2005 with a podcast that was frankly a liitle rough around the edges.
But what followed has been three years of good times on-line and at the parks.
A lot has changed in three years, but we're back today with a brand new podcast to celebrate the occasion.
Mario, Flava and I don't spend a lot of time looking back, but we do spend time talking about some of the latest stories and trends in the amusement industry.

This is the first of three new episodes we promised our listeners for putting us over the $1000 mark during the 2007 Coaster Crew Single Riders Marathon.

It was a great experience producing the show and we couldn't have done it without the support of the thousands of you who came along for the ride every week.Working on this show reminded us of how much fun it is to go to an amusement park with your friends and forget about everyday life for awhile. We hope that listening to this podcast did the same thing for you.There were a lot of ...

But so many of you have been sending in messages and other things for our final show, we decided to bump it back one week so we could fit everything in.
So for this week's Bonus Episode, we're going to talk about our last-second trip to "Hersheypark In The Dark". It was the first time in over two years that we've been to an amusement park without taking along all of the audio equipment.
We'll also be joined by Mike and Greg's bro ...

Most of us have no problem with this. But have you ever wondered how the parks decide who gets to jump to the front of the line and who doesn't? What constitutes a reasonable accommodation?
This week, we'll talk about the different physical and mental challenges that people face and how it affects their trip to the theme p ...

They're the hardest working people at the parks. So, the least we can do is dedicate one of our last shows to them and their stories.
Thanks to our friends at StupidGuestTricks.com, we have some fantastic stories about what Cast Members have to put up with each and every day.
This week, we're joined by Mike Collins' wife Molly, who was a Cast Member at the Walt Disney World resort in the mid-90's.

Halloween is right around the corner, and most parks are open for special "scare-fests" where you can ride all day and scream all night.
Most parks have to create artificial ghosts, but it turns out one park doesn't have to. Six Flags Over Georgia recently played host to the Atlanta-based Ghost Hounds, who spent several hours after the park closed searching for signs from the beyond.

One of the best stories to come out of that show is when we talked about how Mario had to ride Drop Zone on a cold, rainy April day...several times... alone!
We were all working on a Washington, DC based television show for kids and this particular episode was about new thrill rides.

There were movies about earthquakes, airplane disasters, war and even one about roller coasters.
In 1977, Universal Studios released a film about a madman (played by Timothy Bottoms) who was crisscrossing the country to set off bombs at amusement parks. He wanted the theme park chains to give him one million dollars or he would continue to blow up roller coasters and dark rides. It turns out that the only guy smart enough to s ...

They really aren't set up for people to visit alone.
For instance, there aren't any one-seater roller coasters out there. Most times if you're by yourself, there's always that huge empty seat next to you.
So, while most people would never consider visiting a theme park alone, there are a lot of advantages to taking a trip by yourself.
