The Progress City Radio Hour – Episode 54 – Harvest!

The model for Tony Baxter’s original concept for The Land.

Merry Christmas! The Progress City Radio Hour continues our 40th anniversary celebration of EPCOT Center with a look at the pavilion which today most holds true to its original intent – The Land! We’ll look back at how the pavilion came to be, and some of the concepts which were abandoned along the way. We’ll also talk about original sponsor Kraft, and how they had a presence at World’s Fairs and with Disney long before EPCOT. We’ll look at the pavilion’s research under consultant Carl Hodges, and we’ll revisit EPCOT musical muse Bob Moline.

We’d like to take a moment at the end of the year to thank you all for following along and listening this year. The fun we’ve had doing the podcast has been a real highlight of the last couple of years and we’re so grateful for all the support you’ve given us. We hope you have a great holiday season and we’ll see you next year!
