Last Summer at the Theme Park: Some Story Forward Best-of Nostalgia

It's August. It's hot. The days are both long and short as summer '22 plays out its final act. And...we were feeling a bit nostalgic this week as well as gearing up to head to various theme parks, National Parks, city parks, and dog parks ourselves. SO, we've rebooted one of our favorite episodes from '21's Stories of Summer season - The Theme Parks of Summer. Thusly, we ask you to grab a cold drink, take in the smell of drooping late-summer flowers and the hot pavement seeping sulfur and oil, feel the warm wind rise across your face, and step through these theme park gates once again to take in some stories for a time.

'21 Show Notes: This week we take a ride through some epic Theme Park stories and experiences of the Magic Kingdom, love and loss, fathers and sons, girls, travel writing, growing up in SoCal, and the lasting impact of being a Disneyland Jungle Cruise Captain. Larry and Christian talk theme park memories to start things off, then Larry goes on a Disneyland deep dive with Capt. Mike Sigalas. To round out this week's episode Larry brings us our Correspondent piece, a story all about a girl, a father, a date, and an unforgettable theme park memory. Be safe, smart, and well out there. And remember, keep moving the story forward!
