The DIS radio will come back!

[FredQc]

It makes my day! I am listening today episode of The DIS Unplugged and getting very excited by Pete’s statement that he plans to bring back the DIS radio!

For those who don’t know, the DIS radio was a web radio broadcasting Disney parks musics 24/24. It was discontinued in June 2012. At that time, Pete explained that money spent in that radio was going to be reinvested in another major project (probably the move of the Dis Unplugged to a video format, I assume).

Pete stated that a DJ is involved in the project. No launch date has been announced.

I know it’s on Live365 but I wish Pete would make it an app or an Alexa skill!!

Its part of the Dreams Unlimited / Disunplugged / Disboards family, and run by Pete and one of the Dreams Unlimited agents

Very cool!
I'm in Canada but hoping to figure out how to make it work for us. (I'm sure there's a fix)

Radio? What will be on it just songs? Or is it discussions?

It will be a skill on Alexa! Yay!

 

[BadPinkTink]

@WebmasterJackie any chance you can ask Pete about us internationals who want to listen? Is it a Live365 issue as in they don't allow international streaming or is it a setting that a radio admin needs to change to allow international streaming?

 

[SorcererHeidi]

It will be a skill on Alexa! Yay!

Oh - awesome - now that I can get with!!! Hopefully it will be announced when that happens!

UPDATE

I just signed in to my VPN, which due to Covid and the lack of travel and not leaving Ireland for 2 years I had forgotten about and it works I can now listen to Dis Radio

So happy to see that you were able to access DIS Radio with your VPN! YAY!

I am super excited about this!

 

[SheSingsAlong]

Is it Disney Parks music, movie, or TV music? All of the above?

 

[koho]

We've been listening and it is amazing! My wife and daughters love it.

 

[gisele2]

Thank you , thank you , thank you!
It makes my day !
It brings Disney at home.

Is the station currently available on Alexa, or is that coming later, or maybe I'm doing something wrong?
I just asked Alexa, and she called it "Live Radio"(pronounced as in "I live here" - she didn't know it at all when I called it "Live" - as in "live music". But then she called it "Live 365", as in "Live Music" 365. Weird.
But when I asked for The DIS radio, or DIS Unplugged Radio, she kept asking me "What genre are you looking for?", and just kept asking and asking, and asking (I was getting SO annoyed!!!) and had NO suggestions for "Disney" or "Disney theme park" as genres.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanx!

Is this an alexa skill? Is there an official name? It could not find the above names.
