It's October, 21, 2015 - the day Marty and Doc Brown travelled into the future in Back to the Future: Part II.  To celebrate, we talk with the director of one of the greatest theme park attractions ever. This week, we're joined by Douglas Trumbull who created "Back to the Future: The Ride" at Universal Studios Florida and Universal Studios Hollywood!
We also talk about a developing story in Orlando - the Skyplex project (featuring the world's tallest roller coaster" is being opposed by several groups... including Universal Orlando! We'll discuss possible reasons.
Last week, we discussed how a raccoon stumbled onto the tracks of Volcano: The Blast Coaster at Kings Dominion and met a sticky end. This week, we hear the real story behind the little critter.
We have a trip report from Thorpe Park's Halloween event!
