Hello and welcome to The WDW Radio Show – Your Walt Disney World Information Station. I am your host, Lou Mongello, and this is show #319 for the week of April 7, 2013.

Walt Disney was never able to see his vision for Walt Disney World realized, and we often speculate on what he would think of the parks and resorts today. But this week, I want to imagine a bit further, and pose a different question to not just me, but you as well. So in this week’s Top Ten segment, we’re going to imagine taking Walt to Walt Disney World. If we could spend a day with Walt, what would WE want to show him at Walt Disney World… and why? I’ll then invite you to share your thoughts and comments as well

I’ll have the answer to our last Walt Disney World Trivia Question of the Week, and pose a new challenge for your chance to win a Disney prize package.

Stay tuned for additional information and announcements at the end of the show. So sit back, relax, and enjoy this week’s episode of the WDW Radio Show.
