Disney Dish Subscriber Exclusive: Ambient Audio from the Jungle Cruise

by The Jim Hill Media Podcast Network

subscriber exclusive

about

Get ready to head upriver & enjoy this Magic Kingdom classic, as our skipper shares some of the gags that have been entertaining WDW visitors since this Adventureland attraction first opened back in October of 1971.

lyrics

Over the course of this nearly 14-minute-long recording, listeners will hear:

The 1937 hit, “Love is Good for Anything That Ails You,” being played for the Guests who are waiting in the Jungle Cruise’s queue

How the limited use of a marimba makes the Jungle Cruise’s treasure cave sequence seem just a bit more memorable & mysterious than the rest of this Adventureland attraction

An African bull elephant that “speaks” Spanish

All of the plane-based puns, which then signals that our boat has now come upon the airplane-wreckage-along-the-river-bank scene in this attraction

How -- to help sell the idea that you’re being ambushed from both sides of the river -- the Imagineers have that spear-slicing-through-the-air sound seemingly coming from all around you
