Welcome back to another edition of the Disney dish podcast with Jim Hill. It's me, Len Testa, and this is our show for the week of Schmer's Day, January 8th, 2024. On the show today, news and the listener questions. Then in our main segment, Jim tells us how Disney has developed

at the California Screamin roller coaster over the years.

Let's get started by bringing in the man who now understands that throwing the ball in the

stands after a championship is not necessary and wishes everyone in his bowling league a speedy recovery.

Mr. Jim Hill, Jim how's it going?

I am doing well, then.

And now, mind you, I want to stress here

that was a candlepin bowling championship.

Are you familiar with candlepin bowling?

These are tiny ones, right?

You know, tiny?

Yeah, this is the variation of the game

this played in the Canadian maritime's and here in New England

features a handheld sized ball and tall narrow pins that resemble candles hence the name and interesting

variation you get you get when you're playing candle pin you get three balls per

frame and rather than two and let me tell you let when the power

goes up here during the cold New England months and by the way we have a storm

coming in this weekend those candle pins are really hard to get lit. You know, I mean, you know, I'm throwing pieces.

Yeah, I mean, it's just like, I typically go through a bunch of cigarette lighters

before I can finally get one to fire up.

Well, good look to speak of it. It's nice to hear that you've got something to do in case the power goes out. There you go. There you go. Are the candles lit? When you're bowling them? No, but that sounds like an extreme sport, doesn't it? I, but, you know, are know anything to get me on ESP and two. All right let Jim let's do a quick shout
