Show Notes
This week, we fail at finding a relevant quiz and instead answer questions about A Goofy Movie before giving our music theme park some attractions based on everyone's favorite genre - DISCO. First up, Scottye invites in the funk as he brings guests aboard Earth, Wind, And Fire's Afro Orbiters, an attraction that I assume will eventually be replaced with The Princess And The Frog theming in about 25 years. Then, Jim asks his guests to Escape To Funkytown as he takes this Lipps, Incorporated diddy and does all the genres through a wild roller coaster of a four minute attraction.

We finally wrap up season 10 and say goodbye, for now(?), to Opposite Attractions by taking a rather long quiz and adding up all the finishing touches to Party Town and JimCity 2.000. We also discuss a little bit of theme park news from the past two weeks, and remind everyone that we will still be doing FAQueue monthly for our Patreon family.
Jim really wanted to end with a feed of exactly 175 episodes, so we're adding in this Patreon FAQueue about Disney Springs to square everything up. Learn about some of the history of the Marketplace/Island/West Side/Springs and some goofy stories of our experiences hanging out and, in Scottye's case, working there.

This week, on our penultimate episode, we look back not at ten seasons of this podcast, but at what we could do to make attractions based on all of Scottye's other podcasts. Isn't it just a shame Universal already beat us to most of them?
This week, we start things off by discussing Universal's new Velocicoaster, featuring five inversions and not much theming, before moving on to building some attractions with a lil help from celebrities. First up, Scottye invites guests to experience the, well, experience that is Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson Presents Fast & Furious Presents Hobbs & Shaw Presents Dueling Dragons Sponsored By Various Forms Of Alcohol: The Movie: The Ride or whatever. Choose your action star and strap in for this wild coaster also featuring Idris Elba! Meanwhile, Jim has looked at the world a little differently and implores his guests to ride an omnimover around the edge of an indoor coaster for Roman Mars's Most Interesting Coaster Ever attraction, which might also be a TED Talk.
This week, it's all about those ding-dang dinosaurs once again as we add them into Party Town and JimCity...just where they belong! Up first, Jim holds a meeting over the issues that plagued the original dino themed entertainment complex as he brings to the world Jurassic Parks And Recreation Town Hall Meeting, featuring a strange meat-eating stegosaurus. Then, Scottye wants everyone who visits Party Town to know what is and is NOT a good drug, and has hired Theodore Rex to help him showcase just what will happen if you go down the bad path of illicit substances. We then spend way too long discussing what exactly the title character of that 1996 buddy cop adventure actually looks like. Support Opposite Attractions: A Theme Park Design Show
