Joe Buck has a different definition of β€œentertaining” than I do.

Really hope this is the last season where everyone doesn’t get the merge feast. It just seems mean, and it’s a great way to bring everyone together! #survivor

Somehow this is all the Jonas Brothers' fault.

Smoltz is obsessed with guys hitting into a double play with no outs and runners on first and third. It's like he's hoping that it happens.

I'm starting to think it was a good idea for the Blue Jays not to bunt there.

I'm loving this trend of updating EPCOT attractions that are popular and not letting them grow too stale. The changes to Frozen and Ratatouille should make those rides better, and I'm excited to see what happens with this new Soarin' film. Hopefully less CGI! More of this, Disney!

Yeah, I don't mind the survival aspects, as those can be interesting. It's just the current set-up sets up a common scenario where one tribe struggles more because they have no flint and supplies. Still want it to be hard, but it's better when it's more even in some way.

I really hope this is the last gasp of the new era approach of taking the flint and making tribes earn basic supplies. It’s definitely not fun to watch players struggle this much. #Survivor

On the Amazing Race mat this week, Angela talked about being old and not being able to keep up with the younger teams. And she's 51 - two years older than me. Yikes! Nate is actually two years younger than me. Oh boy.

I did not have old-school transportation drama for this season of the #AmazingRace on my bingo card. It was a fun surprise! Teams actually had to book tickets and think on the fly. I enjoyed this episode a lot more than the premiere; more of this, please! #RHAP

Yep. Them losing last night was predictable because it basically happens every season now. It's just not interesting TV, especially when there's an obvious boot. I hope they reconsider that part of it after Season 50.

Thanks! It would be fun to do, but coming on the heels of TAR Canada just ending, it was a bit too much for me especially with the way that Australia posts so many episodes. But I'm enjoying watching it.

Thanks to the #AmazingRaceAustralia for continuing to bring just the right amount of ridiculous energy that I need these days. The celebrities are game for anything, and the challenges just keep getting zanier every week. This picture can't do justice to how silly the Roadblock was in Episode 6.

Fun premiere of the #AmazingRaceAustralia! My favorite moment was footballer Brendan's wise 18-year-old daughter Leni reminding him that yes, remembering things is a valuable skill in life. Also, it feels like 20-minute penalties for a Detour are ridiculous! Why not take it right away?

He seems weirdly confused by everything that happens in a game; I guess that’s his style?

My Six Flags Summer and Disney in 2025 - Tomorrow Society In this special episode of the Tomorrow Society Podcast, Dan Heaton talks about his summer trips to Six Flags parks and Disney's year so far.

I figured it would be fun to stop by on the podcast about what I've been doing lately and our park trips. I also have a lot of thoughts about what Disney's been doing plus Six Flags' struggles based on my experiences. I hope you enjoy this podcast check-in! tomorrowsociety.com/six-flags-su...

I don't mind this move, especially because it means they'll be updating the entire attraction and it will stick around for a long time. The release seems to signal this isn't the only change to the show, and that hopefully means updates to the final scene. Unsure it would be my choice, but it'll do!

It's been a while since I've talked about theme parks on a podcast, so I had a blast appearing on the latest @martycalled.bsky.social episode with @infernobarge.bsky.social and Skipper Ben! We drafted Walt Disney World pre-shows, and I'm pretty happy with my list. www.podbean.com/media/share/...
