## Resource

The guys are on vacation, but the show must go on! We recorded this listener question episode just before heading out, covering everything from the best back-to-back coaster combinations to which IP should come to the parks next, whether Disney would ever tear down the Matterhorn, and which rides sound way better than they actually are. Plus, EB shares two fun stories from a recent Kentucky Kingdom visit — including a station crew member who had absolutely had enough, and a Flying Fox scavenger hunt with a surprisingly solid prize. 🎢 IN THIS EPISODE: Kentucky Kingdom update: Lightning Run's no-nonsense station crew & the Flying Fox scavenger hunt (secret word: PILOT 🤫) Gamifying your park day — leaderboards, ride-counting points & the death of the Q-bot Your favorite roller coaster one-two punch (Storm Runner's launch-to-top-hat, Holiday World's Thunderbird + Voyage, Cedar Point's murderers' row) The next big IP coming to theme parks — Pokémon, Lord of the Rings, Star Trek, Ghostbusters, Squid Game, Godzilla, Barbie, and a case for Namco Land Could Apple, Netflix, or Amazon ever acquire regional parks like Paramount did? The Matterhorn Bobsleds: Ship of Theseus debate — can they replace the track without tearing apart the mountain, or would Disney just tear it down? Rides you hate but somehow keep forgetting you hate (Tempesto / Premier Skyrocket II, giant swing rides) What ride would you NOT want your home park to get? Favorite kiddie ride (the Whip, Knoebels carousel, Holiday World canoes) Which meetup would you do all over again? (Knoebels camping, Dollywood) Listener question on video podcasting: how do two TV producers feel about the transition from audio-only? 📬 Submit your questions: feedback@coasterradio.com | PO Box 3399, Bloomington IN 47402 Or write it on a…
