    Episode 19: A Conversation with Legendary Disney Parks Composer, George Wilkins - Part 1

    This episode I spend some time discussing (and not trying to fanboy out too hard) with legendary film, theater, broadcast, and Disney theme park composer. In part one, we discuss George's history of directing, arranging, and composing for the US Army, CBS broadcasts, and yes, even some talk around EPCOT Center and Disney-MGM Studios. What a terrific episode this was to record.

Thanks for the behind the scenes look at Disney! Just discovered this podcast and it's really interesting to here back stage stories and cast member background info. Thank you Justin!

Enjoy it!

I enjoy any BTS talk about disney and enjoy this podcast. Wish there was a part 2 about the parade in Epcot as a drummer... Hated it ended on a cliffhanger with nothing to listen to after.
