Description: Join Jennifer and Sara as they discuss this week's news and chat with Wayne, the creator of Sorcerer Radio.

Special Guest(s): Wayne - Wayne is the founder of Sorcerer Radio, a popular Disney music radio station. He lives with his wife and two children in New Orleans. He found his love for Disney as a child when his grandfather brought him to Disney World. In colleg he fell in love with Disney music while listening to Walt Disney World CDs as he studied.

Questions/topics we discuss in this podcast:
Rasul Question
Upgrade or not?
Firstly, I have only recently discovered PassPorter and have started getting your podasts every week!  You girls do a great job!
 
I live in Australia and will be visiting Walt Disney World with my son in mid-December to celebrate his high school graduation.  I have been to WDW before, but it was more than 20 years ago and I believe that so much has changed, it will be like a whole new holiday destination. I really enjoy your "top 10" lists, although the level of detail that has to go into planning a Disney holiday is a little overwhelming at times!  I can't wait for the relaxing bit to happen!
 
We are trying to pack as much into our 8 days as we can, although we have allowed for a couple of late start days towards the end. We are staying at the Polynesian, which we chose in order to cut down our travelling time each day. 
 
My question is this:  We have booked a Segway "Around the World at Epcot" tour that starts at 9:00am and I was wondering if we would have time to have breakfast at Cape May (as recommended by Sara) and then make our way to the start of our tour without being late? Or should we just put the focus on the segway tour and leave the breakfast for a day that we can have a later start?
 
I hope that you can help.
 
Yours
 
TC from Aus


___________________________________________________________________________

Hello! Thanks for the great podcast, I have enjoyed listening each week.
 
I have a quick question, hopefully there will be time to get an answer before we leave in mid-September. We are staying at the Beach Club Villas for the first time, and looking forward to Stormalong Bay. I understand that they have become strict with entrance to Stormalong Bay, requiring everyone to show their room key before they can gain entrance.
 
My question is, what do people do with their room keys and other valuables (cell phones, cameras) while using the pool complex? Normally we would just leave our things at a chair, knowing we could see it most of the time from the pool, but since this area is so big I’m wondering if lockers are provided, etc.
 
Thanks!

Listener Feedback:

Hi Ladies!
Really enjoyed last week's show.. I hadn't heard of Sorcerer Radio before but so glad I 'found' it now! It's helping me while I study for my next accounting exams smiley for :)

Also.. the question you had about taking valuables to Storm Along Bay... I can remember seeing a number of lockers in the centre of the pool complex - near to Hurricane Hanna's .

Thank you for such a great show each week!

Emma smiley for :)
