Live radio broadcast from Disney World

Next week October 20th at 11am on Wnjc 1360Am listen to the Mike Phillips Show live from Disney World's Food and Wine festival.
 
Make that a Mickey Merlot for me, or perhaps a Goofy Gewürztraminer. Is this a cell phone call from Disney World or a broadcast using a microphone and board? Disney World has a radio studio (actually a couple, I believe) for remotes just like this.
 
All you need, now, is an appearance by Mickey and Cinderella.

You already have Goofy.
 
Disney does it right, no question. With the festivals, depending how many they are hosting (like a slew of morning shows), they'll put up a bunch of little tents with tables and chairs and have an ISDN line available for every station involved, along with plenty of food and beverages. All you have to do is roll your equipment up and plug in. The studio is better, of course, and since he's there on a Saturday (they don't do a lot of radio over the weekend) I'm guessing that's where he will be broadcasting from.

Try the Snow White Shiraz. You haven't had a good wine unless the grapes were crushed by seven dwarfs.

My show will be live from the downtown disney area actually because i arrive in the World that morning and can't wait to get a dole whip .
 
Cellphone. I'll bet you three Mickey-ears pancakes. Mike won't be close to the food fest, so, it will be by cell, like always, without the new cassette player. He'll need the other hand for the Dole whip. Good grief...you suppose he'll lead the crowd in the Mickey Mouse Club theme, too?

Ah, brokered radio. "We'll do anything."

This all begs the question, "Is a cell phone call really a radio broadcast?" I always thought it was just a phone call. When people call a talk show, according to WIP, they are "mobilizing."

Have you gotten permission from the Disney folks to do this "call-broadcast?" If not, you might be escorted off the premises by Goofy...of course, that could be construed as redundant. Seriously, the Disney folks take this kind of thing seriously. A simple phone call to the park might get you into the radio studio for free. At very least, it would ensure that you will not be wrestled to the ground by a costumed "cast member."

Have you received permission or are you going "rogue?"
 
i will call there people but just to let you know i called Tommy Mccarthy from the bus at disney on the Ed Wade show and more recent called Jessie Jordan on Q102 from the Magic Kingdom.

Yes, but in those instances you were a caller on a show. Now you are originating a show, albeit by cell phone. If it's a show, as you say it is, then Disney will want to know who's "broadcasting" from their park. Especially if you lead the crowd in an A Cappella version of The Mickey Mouse Club Theme. After all, Mike, "Who's the leader of the club...?"
 
I really giveup on pleasing you folks done finished maybe dennis is right on the mark after the trashing i been getting.
 
Thank you Local Radio.

"...wrestled to the ground by a cast member." Now that ... that WOULD be the cellphone call remote to light up the Magic Kingdom.

Incidentally, I have no "mouse" in this fight ... but I've got to say, "after the trashing i been getting." you about brought it on yourself, thanks to that sidekick idiot of yours. Your brokered career is "curtains" one week from today. Maybe there is life left in radio, yet. "...done finished."

radiofan,
After a few "Sticky Mickey's", your sugar high will be so much you will forget about your problems ;) ;D

Thanks for the kind words Mr. Greenberg but the problems are so many and so bad you might be part of the end of Mike Phillips.
 
Back in the 80's, I worked at WKBO in Harrisburg and we did some Disney remotes. There were some basics then that I'm confident are still in place today.

One: Disney likes to control EVERYTHING done on it's property. If you're broadcasting from there (cellohone hookup or whatever) and they didn't give you permission, woe is you if they find you. Booting you out of the park is likely to be the least of your problems.

Two: They do routinely set up radio broadcasts that are set up ahead of time. They even help with the remote, if you ask.

Now...as for this individual's "radio program"...I've never heard it. But if it's brokered time, and the host uses a cellphone to get on the air...and does his entire program that way...well, let's just say I wouldn't do it that way. If you're buying the time, do yourself (and any client you may have, assuming you have one) the favor of putting on the best broadcast you can. Using a cellphone just to do a remote is...well, again, I wouldn't do it that way.
 
This individual shouldn't even be allowed to do a cellphone remote from Maury's Pier in Wildwood, N.J. for that matter. And this one's right after a fire and brimstone black gospel program, yet.

This will be "Dis-en-ey's" (he calls it that) disgrace if he doesn't get tossed off the property, first. In fact, I think he plans to do this "extravaganza" from the water park, not the Kingdom nor the Wine and Food Fest.

Maybe "Dis-en-ey" World has a "No-Cell Phone" rule in place.

This isn't "Wally World" radiofan.
