764: Terry Evanswood - Part 2 - An Audible Tour of the Magic Mansion

We pick up from last week’s episode with the conclusion of our personalized tour by the owner, Terry Evanswood. We enter his Hall of Awards then proceed into the Willie Wonka room. This begins the continuation of our voyage into the make-believe world that is the Magic Mansion. In the second half of this week’s episode, Terry tells us about his journey from Chicago to Pigeon Forge and his trip up and down the main street as he moved from theater to theater over the past 25 years.
