In the latest INTERCOT
Insider Live (released today on National Podcast Day), we talk
the conversion of the Maelstrom to a Frozen attraction and in the process
figure out the perfect queue. We also discuss old versions of attractions
and their newer counterparts and try to decide, has it been done better
before? Christine reviews the latest Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party
and says it's awesome and we all get geared up for #runICOT in January.
