DisneySpaceEpisode 14 - Reimagine The Open Land North of EPCOTHold onto your hats and glasses folks! Jeff and Mark now move into the great Walt Disney World wilderness.... The actual wilderness! We cross EPCOT Center Drive into the wide open wooded land just north of EPCOT’s parking lot. This vast unused DisneySpace right is the middle of the property and is prime for something big and new.
Mark splits the space in two parts. RunDisney Park and the all new Walt Disney World TransCenter with CenterCore.
Jeff pitches an amazing Experience Park called “Disneylandia 55”, a replica of Disneyland, but as Disneyland would have been experienced in its early days f...2022-08-072h 23
DisneySpaceEpisode 13 - Reimagine Liberty SquareFor our 13th show, things at the Magic Kingdom get a little weird. This might be classified as our first “and Spaces Beyond”show.
Our premise assumes that Disney execs make a proclamation that “Americana is out, we don’t want any more viral videos of Hall of Presidents, etc., let’s change Liberty Square into something new”.
But in doing so, we learn about a long-held secret of what the “Magic” Kingdom really is - and the real reason Liberty Square disappears. A familiar caller into AM radio’s late night Art Bell talk show reveals a grand conspiracy, and we get the ful...2022-05-312h 10DisneySpaceEpisode 12 - Reimagine Journey into ImaginationFor this episode of DisneySpace, Jeff and Mark invite RetroWDW’s and DisTwitter-notable How Bowers along for a visit into EPCOT’s brand new World Celebration (or World Nature?) as we reimagine the Journey into Imagination with Figment pavilion into something new, and something old - made new.

The episode begins with impressions of the newly opened Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser, just outside of Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
