Hello friends of the Disney dish podcast with Jim Hill. It's me, Lantesta, and even though I'm on a cruise right now, I have a quick announcement for a special free online event I'm doing later this week. The White House Historical Association, yes that White House, has asked me to host a happy hour discussion with our friend Bethany Beamus from the Smithsonian Museum of American History on the magical history of US Presidents visits to Disney Marks. It's this Thursday, March 2nd at 6 p.m. Eastern

it's free and it's all online.

Visit Whitehouse History.org and get more details.

And because it's happy hour, we'll have some friends on

to show us how to prepare a proper presidential

cocktail.

That's this Thursday, March 2nd, 6 p.m. Eastern, White House History.

I hope to see you there.

Thanks. Welcome back to another edition of the Disney dish podcast with Lantesta.

It's me, Jim Hill, and I'm flying solo this week on our show for the week of Schmer's Day, February 26,

2023.

Not to worry, though, Mr. Testa will be back next week.

He and his lovely daughter, Hannah,

are out on the high seas enjoying a cruise on...

Oh, wait, am I reading this right?

The U.S. S. Poseidon?

Oh, that ain't good.

All right, Lena, if you're listening to this message while you're trapped upside down inside of a capsize cruise ship,

let me share a little wisdom that the late Ernest Bergnine once laid on me.

Avoid the oysters of the raw bar, especially after they've been sitting out in the open for a couple hours.

Oh, oh, and the metal plating on a ship's hull is always thinest back toward the keel.

Don't worry, folks. I'm sure Mr. Test will be fine.
