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 Shimmer's Day, August 29th, 2022.

On the show today, news and listener questions.

Then in our main segment, Jim gives us the history of Disneyland's pirate ship restaurant.

Let's get started by bringing in the man who says that this country doesn't play enough ABBA,

and it shows. It's Mr. Jim Hill. Jim, how's it going?

It's going well, Len, and ABBA gets its name from the initials of the first name

of all the members of the group. So that's Agnitha, that's you.

Beyond old few hues, Betty Anderson, and any free-ling stod.

And just in case you're wondering, Len, if you, me, Nancy, and Laurel ever formed a band,

it would be called Linda.

It's a type of Swedish berry, so not entirely unrelated, Jim.

No, no, no, there we go. He coincidentally also denotes my car makes on a very cold morning,

when it won't start.

So what you're saying is we have cross-cultural appeal.

We do, we do.

In speaking of different cultures, Jim, before we start, I'd like to thank you and Christina.

We're doing a great job, and last week's show, while I was on vacation,

and as we get started with today's show, I'd like to tell all of y'all a little bit of my trip

and share an important travel tip. As many of you know, one of my travel goals is to visit every

country in Epcot's World Showcase, and don't leave that, but if it's possible to see the things

in the real world that are referenced in World Showcase.
