CoasterRadio.com #529 - Time Machine Show - Part 1

A few weeks ago, we celebrated the 6th Anniversary of this crazy podcast.

EB and I got a little nostalgic for the old days.  So, after a movie marathon where we watched Back to the Future Parts I, II and III while drinking nothing but Diet Mountain Dew, we had an inspiration!

We decided to build our own time machine and go back to listen to a show featuring a past version of ourselves!

This week, EB and I head back to September 26, 2005 to hear a show featuring Flava and Greg K.  The topic that week, was "Dating at the Theme Park."

We'll listen to our 2005 commentary on the topic, talk a bit about our past thoughts and then go "Back to the Future" so we can give you our 2011 take on things.

Let's just all be careful we don't cause a temporal paradox, OK?

We also hear about EB's Opening Day trip to Holiday World and listen to a Live Trip Report from the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk!

"Back to the Future" - Theme Park Dating

Throughout the month of may, EB and I will be doing what we call "Back to the Future" shows.

Besides giving us a chance to do imitations and play sound effects from one of our favorite movies, it's also going to give us a chance to bridge our old school shows with episodes from today.

Here's the plan...

On each show, EB and I will go back to our archives and play a segment from one of our old shows.  Then, we'll come "Back to the Future" and discuss the topic again to see if our attitudes and opinions have changed.

The best part about this is that you'll get to be involved too!

We start off this week by talking about "Theme Park Dating."

Theme Parks are a fun place to visit, but is it the best place to take a date?  Is it a good place to experiment with a Blind Date?  Perhaps you have a story of your own from a good or bad date at the parks?

Let us know what you think by joining us on Tuesday, May 10th at 9:30 pm EST at http://live.coasterradio.com.

You'll be able to see and hear us record the show AND we'll give you a special "hotline" phone number that you can use so you can join us live.

Of course, you can still participate in the show through all of the traditional methods.

Send us your answers by posting them right here on the blog by using the "Comments" link below.  You can also e-mail us your answer by using the address over on the right or use our Contact Page!

You can also call our voicemail line at 206-339-3360.

We'll see you LIVE on Tuesday night!

CoasterRadio.com #528 - A Fresh Start

There's a great reason for this picture!
We usually try to pick show titles that are both creative and ones that give you a hint at what's to come.

That's why I think "A Fresh Start" works well this week.

To begin, we wrap up Theme Park Change with some important words about last week's show

There is a lot to say and a lot to be thankful for, so we hope that you'll all take the time to listen to the first part of our podcast.

We also have a final tally on our fundraising for Theme Park Change and celebrate by inviting two old friends back to Coaster Radio!

This week's show also lives up to its title because we'll hear your favorite stories from Opening Day at the parks.

It's one of the best days of the theme park year because the parks are clean, the paint is fresh and the rides are running like new!

Mike and EB will tell you their own unique "opening day" tales while also hearing from the listeners about their unique experiences from their home park's first day of operation.

Plus, we'll have a Live Trip Report from Texas and a few other surprises!
