Welcome everyone , to episode 49 of the Unofficial Universal Orlando Podcast brought to you by MicePod.

On this Episode we catch up on the news and bring you another of Erics "What's Newniversal" segments.

For the main feature of the show, we veer away from Universal a little bit and bring you an interview Tracey Recorded with Communicore Weeklys, Jeff Heimbuch,  about his book It's Kind of a Cute Story.

The book is about legendary Disney Imagineer Roly Crump, but Tracey manages to bring the questioning over to Universal, but we all love Theme Parks and we think you will enjoy the book and this interview.

You can get hold of the book from AMAZON or over at Bamboo Forest Publishing.

We'd love you to head over to our Episode 48 discussion on the Micechat forums.
