Is it possible....

[wdwowner]

that the tone on the boards have changed due to all of the negative tone and rants in the podcast itself? I really can't think of an entire show lately that has not have a good deal of negative tones towards WDW and Disney as a company.

Let's see, every week WDW is being taken to task for doing something wrong in the eyes of the podcast crew. WDW management is being called names because of the way they are doing business. The only positive food reviews lately have been restaurants outside of WDW. Acquisitions have been made by the company to fill a gap it believes it is missing only to have the blame pushed to the wrong business segment of the company. There are many more examples too.

You would think if someone really loved going to a place soooo much they would go multiple times a year, or that they would build a business around their favorite thing in the world that instead of beating it down every chance they get they would bring out the good side as much as possible, but still say 'Hey you screwed up on that one' when it is called for without belittling and name calling.

There are times that I want to yell out 'If you think you can do better that they are doing, quit your day job and go work for WDW and see how things are on the other side of the fence'.

When someone is sick with cancer or any medical situation every single medical person will tell you, 'a positive attitude will go much further than a negative attitude'. I bet the same thing will work for the boards, but it does start with the podcast itself.

[FireDancer]

a positive attitude will go much further than a negative attitude

Good advice, I suggest you also apply it to your board posts.

Maybe the negative posts from me, as you call them (which is subjective by all), come from the tone of the podcast?

So them saying negative things makes you say negative things? They control your mind? Wow, who knew that had that much power.

Well Said.

[mikelan6]

I enjoy the tone of the podcasts. I think they are well balanced. If all you want to hear is WDW is perfect, then there are other podcasts out there for you.

[NWOhioAngela]

I have to agree, to some degree with WDWOwner on this one. The DisUnplugged is my favorite Disney podcast because it gives a fair look at Disney--not just the rainbows and sunshine. We have noticed that there is a lot more negative than positive in the past few months. That may not be the fault of DisUnplugged though. They can only report what they see and if Disney is dishing out a whole lot of "bad" I guess that's what we'll hear.

[jeanigor]

Maybe the negative posts from me, as you call them (which is subjective by all), come from the tone of the podcast?

I'm sorry. I disagree. You are not subjective. No matter what is said, you are argumentative. Playing devil's advocate does not equate to being subjective. I can appreciate and respect other view points, ideas and interpretations on subjects; yet, it does get tiresome when it is brought down to an attack on a personal level. It shouldn't be as if we were on the playground in third grade.

If you don't agree with something, awesome. If you do agree awesome. But there are such things as manners and respect. I know you are not trying to win over any friends, nor should you try; but, you should be respectful. Without any respect you loose all credibility.

If this is what you believe you are listening to the wrong podcast. The title of the podcast says it all....."The DIS Unplugged"

in my opinion...Rightfully so. You can't tell me you haven't seen a steady decline or decay of Disney World (especially dining) over the years; services cut and prices consistantly on the rise. I'd never expect prices to decrease. I think we all wish Disney World management would leave prices static for a little while.

You would think if someone really loved going to a place soooo much they would go multiple times a year, or that they would build a business around their favorite thing in the world that instead of beating it down every chance they get they would bring out the good side as much as possible, but still say 'Hey you screwed up on that one' when it is called for without belittling and name calling.
Believe it or not, it's their/our love for all things Disney that drives this attitude. We all want to see improvements. Expressing their opinions on the show provides a forum for the Disney fan to keep Disney held accountable for higher standards. We all benefit from it.

These are pretty obvious answers to your questions. You'll find most others feel the same way. You must be new here...Welcome! :) :welcome:

Have you listened to this weeks WDW Radio podcast? Not all positive.

Exactly.

If I don't enjoy a podcast, I don't listen to it. I don't go post on their boards about how I don't like their style.

It's the same as your comedian analogy. Different audiences enjoy different things. If I knew a comedian's style wasn't one I liked, I wouldn't go to the show just to heckle him.

[chickie]

WHY do you always have to start an argument? Just don't listen (and don't post either) if you don't like it here!

[k5jmh]

The business of Disney is not Eutopian by any means. Their use of "megonomics" should make people think. I think that Disney is just being called out on it. I am glad Pete and crew are not sheep. Baaaaaa.

[DavidandLeahZ]

I once heard a lecture on argumentation (yes, I'm a nerd) where the following statement was made: "Opinions are useless without reasons to support them."

For example, "Did you like the movie? Should I go see it?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"I don't know...because?"

When it comes to being critical of anything, and an opinion is given, I (and perhaps this is just me) would ALWAYS rather hear the reasoning behind that opinion instead of simply, "I don't like WDW" or "I had a horrible meal."

I want to know "why?"

Both are opinions - but the Podcast team always, without fail, backs up their opinions with reasons.

Once I hear those reasons, I can (1) agree or (2) agree to disagree, but as long as reasons are provided, I would have no place to chastise them for offering their opinions.....that's why I listen.

To the OP: The "tone of the podcast", as you've put it, has NOTHING to do with the negativity that spews from your fingertips, OP. You find any reason to criticize the crew for anything that they say or do. Anything. There's always a better way to say what you want to say without having to sound negative and critical.

I don't understand why someone who does not like the "tone" of this board or the podcast would still choose to be here...I just don't get it.

There is no way I should join into this thread but then fools rush in . . .

I have been listening to the podcast for well over two years and my perception as to whether the "tone" of it has changed is very different from yours. The gang has never sugarcoated their views of WDW. That is not to say I agree that "every week" they take WDW "to task for doing something wrong." The reason I (and I suspect others, just read Skip's post from month or so back) listen to the DisUnplugged is precisely because they say what it on their mind. In today's over-marketed society, it is rare to find folks who do that.

I also find it inaccurate to say that the podcast crew is "beating [WDW] down every chance they get." Pete and the others regularly and consistently say when, in their view, WDW does something well. Just this last podcast (10/21/09), Pete strongly disagreed with Kevin and John on the quality and quantity of the food at Food and Wine.

Perhaps, as you suggest, DU could (at least in the short term) drive up its business by painting nothing but a rosy picture of all things Disney. (Just think of the "happy little crab cake (http://www.wdwinfo.com/disney-podcast/8-8_photos.htm)".) I think what DU has done, however, is pure genius. Folks today are begging for sincerity and, to my thinking, that is what sets this group apart from any other podcasts or any other travel agency.

Well!
I thought I should be ignoring this thread. Was I ever wrong! What a turn it has taken...

Will Kelvis be appearing on PCC 2.0?

Kevin, if you like, you could borrow my son's jumpsuit. It doesn't fit him anymore.

Holy Cow! Just look at what happens when you miss a morning on the boards! Trolls, cake, Kelvis....my oh my!

I have to be the only person who doesn't like the way this thread has turned.

Yes, it's obvious that Rich rarely posts anything that isn't hyper-critical of the podcast or the DIS, and yes, I find it annoying. I didn't think he was rude about it, though.

But all the "don't feed the troll" posts have rubbed me the wrong way, too.

I would hate to think you'd treat me like this if I had anything critical to say in the future. :sad2:

[nedac]

It amazes me how many people feed this guys need for attention. He posts things like this because he needs to feel validated and hear someone tell him how smart, positive and insightful he is.

We get it, you want to change the world. You're great, move along now.

[wishspirit]

Chat and Kool-aid. That rocks!!

We don't have Kool-aid here :( I do like it when I come to the states through!

:lmao: Would you believe that my housemates spend most of their waking hours ether A) annoying the heck outta me and B) Changing the words of songs to add the word cake in them....

Students need to fill their time somehow!


If I manage to stay awake till 3 am:cool1: I'll be there:thumbsup2
It's been a while since I've been on chat

I feel your pain!

The thing is Lori, is that when you have a critical opinion it isn't a constant put down of the podcast crew. You have your point, make it, and move on. The OP doesn't, and seems to be holding a grudge to the point where is spoils the atmosphere and enjoyment of this otherwise friendly board. I don't always agree with the podcast, but not only do I not always air these opinions knowing that A) it's their podcast to do what they like and I genuinely enjoy it and B) does it even need to be said at all? What will I gain from airing it in the first place, it is their podcast, they would change if THEY felt they needed to.

This comment really did not need to be aired on a public forum, just to get peoples backs up. How about he tried to email the podcast crew giving suggestions for upbeat segments, rather than just pulling them down for what they do?

Mostly with this poster it is about tone and the constant stream of negative comments, which makes regular posters feel he is only attention seeking. You have your right to make your comments, and we may or may not agree, but to constantly tell people negativity is someone elses fault, when they are constantly posting negative comments is nothing short of hypocrisy, and people can't stand that!

I hope you understand my point, feel free to agree or disagree! :goodvibes

[beachwarmer]

I want to join too. I can make the peanut butter, banana and bacon sandwich....Do you want that deep fried???


I'm going to need an entourage.

I did not say posse because I dont want to confuse Don.

You have found something critical to say and no one has called you on it.

If ALL you posted was negativity....I would suggest that people use the ignore button.

Dont feed the trolls.

If someone with a balanced view of the podcast were to disagree with a particular segment that is one thing. When every post by anyone is negative it begins to just get old and when a good point is made it is lost in the sea of negativity.

[spaddy]

There are times that I want to yell out 'If you think you can do better that they are doing, quit your day job and go work for WDW and see how things are on the other side of the fence'.


I hate to extend this thread but....

I often feel the same way about your posts. If you think you can make a better Podcast please DO IT. If you took the effort and time exerted posting on the discussion boards of a podcast you obviously don't like anymore, I am sure you could come up with a weekly Podcast all your own. You would not even have to quit your day job.

I do not agree with everything on the Podcast. No one is making me listen. I am able to make my own choices.

I think if you check out many of the critical post you will find many people that have are able to be critical of the podcast but keep in civil. I have agreed with some statements in the past and think everyone here has had moments when the didn't agree with everyone. The difference is we are able to seperate opinions and keep things positive dispite disagreements.

Very Blues Brothers of you - without the whole chicken.

[Gav N Becx]

Judging from the consistent negative posts, this is a case of a virtual gadfly.

The 'ignore' option is my virtual fly swat

[Flightman]

that the tone on the boards have changed due to all of the negative tone and rants in the podcast itself? I really can't think of an entire show lately that has not have a good deal of negative tones towards WDW and Disney as a company.

Let's see, every week WDW is being taken to task for doing something wrong in the eyes of the podcast crew. WDW management is being called names because of the way they are doing business. The only positive food reviews lately have been restaurants outside of WDW. Acquisitions have been made by the company to fill a gap it believes it is missing only to have the blame pushed to the wrong business segment of the company. There are many more examples too.

You would think if someone really loved going to a place soooo much they would go multiple times a year, or that they would build a business around their favorite thing in the world that instead of beating it down every chance they get they would bring out the good side as much as possible, but still say 'Hey you screwed up on that one' when it is called for without belittling and name calling.

There are times that I want to yell out 'If you think you can do better that they are doing, quit your day job and go work for WDW and see how things are on the other side of the fence'.

When someone is sick with cancer or any medical situation every single medical person will tell you, 'a positive attitude will go much further than a negative attitude'. I bet the same thing will work for the boards, but it does start with the podcast itself.

Here in the UK, posts like these get dealt with with a simple image.

Ladies and gentlemen I give you... The Troll.

Is tossing panties appropriate in this situation?

I think tossing panties is always appropriate but that's just me... :cool2:

I'd have to agree with you ladies. :lmao:

e"www, the troll picture is gross! I love the way this thread has changed. I read the whole "cleaning lady" thread, and I'm tired of the OP's negativity! I'm going to try to do chat tonight; first time, but everybody is in a cake and Elvis mood and it's making me happy!

[Justin Jett]

Who's coming to CHAT tonight.

Fear not....I have a troll removal device for CHAT and I'm NOT afraid to use it.

No homework tonight! I'm there!

Ironically, there are many similarities to Oscar the Grouch. I think more than a few of you know what I mean.

Nicole, start at postt #32. It went down hill and back around from there!

Watch out for the sewer pipes!

[Madi100]

Read it. trust me, it's not what you think.:thumbsup2

Thanks, I did. It made me laugh. Kevin, I can't wait to hear you sing in December. It's written on my calendar.

So, help me out here. If a thread has "gone cake" does that mean that it needs to be hijacked? Cause if so, if a thread has gone Kelvis it means mission accomplished.

I just finished reading this whole thread and I have to say all I can picture is John doing the Single Ladies dance follow by Kevin doing Elvis from the Vegas years. If the only thing stopping it from happening to the Elvis costume I think we could start a collection. :rotfl2:

Kevin is a frog, I'm a sheep, anyone else changing species? Paul is a beast....
