Episode 504 – The Story of Typhoon Lagoon

Bryan RipperPodcast

On this week’s feature discussion show, I’m coming to you on location from Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon water park in Walt Disney World. Typhoon Lagoon was the second water park that Disney created down in Walt Disney World, and it contains consistent theming with an in-depth back story that includes, not just the water park, but also ties into the old Downtown Disney and Pleasure Island destination across the street before it was transformed into Disney Springs. The design of the park from the buildings to the centerpiece of the park, Mount Mayday and the Miss Tilly fishing boat on top of the mountain, all come together to tell a fascinating story that we’ll unwrap here on the show.
