Tiki Room Secrets: Stories You Haven't Heard with Ken Bruce

If you know us at all, then you know we absolutely love Adventureland. After all, "Adventure" is right in our name! And, of course, no visit to this amazing land is complete with out a pause for a little Tropical Serenade at Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room. We thought we knew a lot about this one-of-a-kind attraction. However, we learned we didn't even come close to knowing the whole story. Well, this week, we're letting you in on a lot of the unknown details with a fantastic guest. Yep! We're sharing Tiki Room Secrets: Stories You Haven't Heard with Ken Bruce. Ken is a 2-time Emmy winning animation director & storyboard artist who has worked on many movies & shows you love. More recently, he's written Before The Birds Sang Words. A phenomenal deep dive into everything that was involved in creating this truly original attraction. He discusses a lot of the information you probably didn't know about how the Tiki Birds came to be. Including all the steps (and missteps) along the way. It's an extremely fun and informative interview that we know you're going to love.

Be sure to pick up Ken Bruce's book Before The Birds Sang Words at its website.

You can also pick up copies at Amazon or listen to the audiobook narrated by Ken Bruce here.
