Summary
WDW Radio # 717 - Cindy Morgan from TRON Interview - From the WDW Radio Archives
Spoiler alert... I'm a bit of a nerd. Growing up, I loved (love) video games and technology, storytelling, adventure, and the unknown... and that hasn't changed much.
More than 40 years ago, a Disney film was released that would forever change the science fiction genre, as well as animation, video gaming and the lives of many young geeks like myself. Smart, stylish and fun, the game grid of Tron was groundbreaking, and in 2010, Tron was reborn with the Tron: Legacy film (and do you remember the Tronorail at Walt Disney World, ElecTRONica at Disneyland, or what about Tron: Uprising on Disney XD... with all of them now on Disney+).
So in 2012, on WDW Radio show # 277, a little, nerdy dream of mine came true, as I had the opportunity to speak in an exclusive interview with one of the original film’s stars, Cindy Morgan, who played the dual role of Lora and Yori. She may or may not have also been the subject of a bit of a boyhood crush of mine for her role in Caddyshack.
Cindy joined me to talk about her career and role in Tron, as she shared stories of the making of the films, the Tron phenomenon, her fans and much more. With the opening of TRON: Lightcycle Run this week in Magic Kingdom, the timing for listening back to my conversation with Cindy (who I still love seeing at comic and conventions) seemed appropriate. I may just have to reach out to her again for the follow up conversation we discussed.
Are you a fan of the original TRON? What about TRON: Legacy? Have you experienced TRON Lightcycle Run in Magic Kingdom (or Shanghai Disneyland) yet?

| 0:00.0 | What we're gonna do right here is go back way back back into time. |
| 0:08.0 | Hello my friend and welcome to another episode from the WDW Archives. I am your host, |
| 0:14.0 | Lume Angelo and this is shown number 717 and each week. I'm gonna select an evergreen episode |
| 0:20.4 | from the archives to share with you that maybe you haven't heard before or one you hadn't |
| 0:24.6 | heard in a long time from interviews to top tens, relevant reviews and guides and wayback |
| 0:29.9 | machines and more. It's a great way to visit or revisit some of your favorite episodes including |
| 0:34.7 | ones that you have suggested from the vault. And now with these new episodes and opportunities I |
| 0:40.0 | think in the feed I'm gonna introduce and experiment with a couple of different types of content |
| 0:44.0 | in a variety of formats. For example, instead of a show from the archives I may do a show about |
| 0:48.5 | something that is time sensitive. Maybe instead of a top 10 I do a top 5 show maybe by myself. |
| 0:54.4 | Maybe I'll even resurrect my Disney and a minute segments put an audio format. I'd also love |
| 0:58.4 | to take some ideas and inspiration from you and go from there and we can talk about even more marvel |
| 1:03.2 | and star wars and other aspects of our fandom and love of Disney and see where it takes us. |
| 1:08.6 | Because I think this really does open up a world of opportunities in an effort to do more for and |
| 1:13.0 | with you bring you more fun, value, laughter and maybe even a little inspiration. And for the archive |
| 1:19.4 | episodes like this week I'm taking out the relevant segment and I'm gonna cut out the intro and |
| 1:25.0 | outro and contests and we're applicable maybe some of the out-of-date news and rumors. If you want |
| 1:30.4 | to hear the full episode I'm gonna let you know the original show number so you can always go back |
| 1:34.8 | into your podcast player or feed and listen to the entire thing. And like I said when I first |
| 1:39.4 | introduced this concept I'm not taking anything away. I'm not gatekeeping anything new that you have |
| 1:44.0 | to pay for. I just think this is a fun way to share some of my favorites and some of yours that maybe |
| 1:48.8 | you have missed or never heard before. So I'm gonna open up the archives again this week and spoil |
