I know this was mentioned on a recent show. I remember the due date being January 31st and that info would be posted. Did it change? I haven't seen anything. Am I just being impatient? ;)

I had the perfect meal to review last night, but I want to do it as an mp3. Shall I send it to the regular podcast contact email address?
Thanks!

Hey everyone. Longtime listener, short time lurker, and first time poster. I decided to actually write because like the earlier poster, I always wanted to enter the first review contest and just never got around to it. After this week's show I finally forced myself to buckle down and actually reviewed a fictional restaurant.
Kevin, I disagree with you many times when it comes to reviews (especially Ohanas), but your segments with John are the parts I look forward to the most outside of the Disney News and a classic Peter rant. I'm glad you've tried to get many people to try out Tijuana Flats, probably the best bang-for-the-buck restaurant I've ever been to. I forgot how much I enjoyed them as there aren't any of them over on the East Coast of Florida, but I was lucky to spend the New Year over in Tampa where they have several. I even bought a bottle of sauce to bring home with me!

Yes, there are!!! We have one here in Port Orange, and there's one in Daytona Beach. Both are on the East Coast.

Hi Derek...welcome to the boards. It's a friendly place to hang out.
As my reviews are opinions....it's quite possoble that you wont agree.....you'll be wrong....but it's possible. :lmao:
All joking aside....it's ok that you disagree. I disagree with the folks that like Whispering Canyon AND Ohana.
Whether you agree or disagree....I'm glad you listen and have decided to start posting.
Again....welcome to all of the new posters.

Tup? Surely you mean "Yup"! Tup is a dirty word, but is a legal play in tournament Scrabble.
Thanks -- review has been sent -- it's 15 minutes long and very glowing, but it is a fantastic place to eat...

Just curious ...now this will probably sound like a dumb question...It sounded like we could review ANY restaurant....Disney or non disney....would that mean that we could even review say a mcdonalds or chain restaurant...what about a family restaurant in illinois???

So...did the winner of this contest get announced in the end?
I remember submitting a review about a year and a half ago! I take it that's a 'no'. Ha ha.
Hope all is well with you podcast peeps!

I thought "Nikki" won
Could be wrong though :confused:

On our last show, we talked about one of things we loved about our jobs and that was the fact that we were 100% honest with people.
In keeping with that honesty, I will tell you that last year was a bit of a nightmare. Two weeks after my last post on this thread (1/11/09) my first retina detached and the year seemed to go downhill from there.
Last December, my computer crashed and I lost just a great deal of stuff. My email files were among the stuff lost.
Many of the contest entries were done via email and I have no way of getting them back.
There has not been a winner declared and at this point, I wont be able to do that as I dont have the reviews submitted.
I apologize to anyone I have disappointed.

I think if you send everyone on the DIS $100 bucks for the emotional damage you have caused that should be sufficient. We will all be patiently waiting for our money to arrive, along with a heartfelt personal apology. :thumbsup2

I forgive you. Thank you for your apology. My review was boring, anyway. I would not have won.
Glad you're much more mended. Keep your reviews coming!
