We’ve drug our feet long enough. It’s time to go see the Country Bear Musical Jamboree at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom on this episode of Attraction Checklist. Attraction audio recorded on May 21, 2025.

TRANSCRIPT:

Welcome to Attraction Checklist.

This episode we visit Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom to check out the Country Bear Jamboree’s new show the Country Bear Musical Jamboree.

The Walt Disney World website describes this attraction saying: Head over to Frontierland for this newly reimagined show where Henry, Trixie, Big Al and their pals are playin’ some of your favorite Disney songs alongside a heapin’ helpin’ of Southern charm.

There are no age or height requirements for this attraction and, in a possible bit of foreshadowing, there is no Thrill Level listed.

Before we head to Grizzly Hall, here are five fast facts about the Country Bear Musical Jamboree.

1. In September 2023, Disney announced that the Country Bear Jamboree would be retooled into a new show called the Country Bear Musical Jamboree. The edited original show that had been running closed on January 27, 2024. The new version of the show opened on July 17, 2024.

2. As part of the redesign for the new show, the lobby area of grizzly hall has been festooned with display cases filled with treasures from the history of the Country Bear Jamboree. This includes trophies of awards won by the bears, vintage costume pieces and original paw-written lyrics for songs.

3. Veteran singer, songwriter Mac McAnally was tasked with creating country versions of popular Disney songs for the show. He also provides the voice of Terrance the Shaker in the show as well.

4. The Voice competitor Emily Ann Roberts provides the voice of Trixie and Allison Russell and Chris Thile provide voices for Teddi Barra and Wendell respectively.

5. As part of the revamp, one bear got a name change. Liver Lips McGrowl is now Romeo McGrowl. Romeo is now voiced by Robert “Big Sandy” Williams.

With much trepidation, it’s now time to visit the Country Bear Musical Jamboree. John B. deHaas is along for the journey and after the show we’ll give you our thoughts on this attraction. This is a binaural recording so if you have headphone, put them on now as we visit the Country Bear Musical Jamboree at Magic Kingdom.

Let’s head to Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure to check out the high flying stunt show known as The Amazing Spider-Man! On this episode of attraction checklist.

Attraction audio recorded on July 30, 2023.

TRANSCRIPT:

Welcome to Attraction Checklist.

This episode we’re visit Disney California Adventure to experience the, brief, stunt show called The Amazing Spider-Man!

Now here’s a first in Attraction Checklist history, I cannot find any mention of this show anywhere on the Disneyland website. I was able to find it in the entertainment listings on the Disneyland App where it is described by saying:

Watch out for your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man along the rooftop of the WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure building. You may even get a chance to meet him, up close!

Since this is a show, there are no age or height requirements or a thrill level listed for this experience.

Before we shove off, here are five fast facts about the Liberty Square Riverboat in Magic Kingdom.

1. The Amazing Spider-Man! debuted with Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure on June 4, 2021. The show featured a combination of human and robotic performers.

2. The Amazing Spider-Man! Takes on the rooftop of the W.E.B. building that houses the WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure attraction we reviewed back in episode 124.

3. The centerpiece of the show is a high flying stunt performed by a robot imagineers have dubbed a Stuntronic. This acrobatic robot is able to perform somersaults and twists as it flies through the air.

4. The robot Stuntronic got an extra year of development thanks to the COVID-19 Pandemic. During this time, imagineers were able to perfect what the robot could do. In fact, they made it too perfect where it could land complex moves each time it soared through the air. Show directors reminded the Imagineers that Spide-Man is far from perfect, so they reprogrammed the robot to be a little more out of control.

5. On November 17, 2024, the stunt performers who performed in the show were informed that the stunt portion of the show was going to be removed. The Stuntronic Spider-Man still flies through the air several times each day but gone are the rooftop tumbling portions of the show. The audio recorded for this episode was made before that change happened.

Let’s head to Avengers Campus to see The Amazing Spider-Man!. John B. deHaas is along for the fun and after the show audio we’ll give you our thoughts on this attraction. This is a binaural recording so if you have headphones put them on now as we experience The Amazing Spider-Man! At Disney California adventure!

Prepare for launch! We are headed to Magic Kingdom to ride Space Mountain on this episode of Attraction Checklist. Attraction audio recorded on June 4, 2024.

TRANSCRIPT:

Welcome to Attraction Checklist.

This episode we visit Magic Kingdom and ride the classic attraction Space Mountain.

The Walt Disney World website describes this attraction saying: Blast off on a rip-roaring rocket into the furthest reaches of outer space on this roller-coaster ride in the dark.

Guests must be 44” or taller to ride this attraction and the Thrill Level calls it a Thrill Ride with Big Drops in the Dark.

Before we head to Starport: Seven Five, here are five fast facts about Magic Kingdom’s Space Mountain.

1. Space Mountain opened at Magic Kingdom on January 15, 1975.

2. Space Mountain was originally conceived by Walt Disney for an attraction at Disneyland. In 1964, Walt Disney started John Hench on the idea of a space themed roller coaster initially called Space Voyage. It wasn’t until 1966 that imagineers christened it Space Mountain for the first time. The technology at the time made building the attraction in Disneyland impossible, but there was plenty of room at Magic Kingdom so Space Mountain appeared in Walt Disney World promotional materials as early at 1969.

3. There are two tracks on Space Mountain at Walt Disney World, Alpha and Omega. They are near identical in that they are 65ft (or 19.8m) high, have a drop of 26 feet (7.9m) and whisk you along at 27 mph (or 43.5 km/h). The difference between the two tracks comes in where track length is concerned. Alpha track’s 3196ft (974.1m) of track is 10 ft (or 3m) longer than Omega’s 3186 ft (971.1 m)

4. The first official rider on Space Mountain in 1975 was astronaut Colonel James Irwin.

5. Space Mountain holds the distinction of being the oldest operating roller coaster in all of Florida.

Let’s ride Space mountain. After the ride audio I’ll give you my thoughts on this attraction. This is a binaural recording so if you have headphones put them on now as we experience Space Mountain at Magic Kingdom.
