What makes Disneyland Paris's Frontierland the BEST version of all Disney parks?
In this episode of Distory with Kate & Kirk, we arrive at the "crown jewel" of all the Big Thunder Mountain Railroads in our series, the one that graces an island in Disneyland Paris. But in order to understand what makes this mountain the best version that Tony Baxter and the Imagineering team ever created, we have to first understand the context of Disneyland Paris's Frontierland as a whole. As we dig into the concepts and backstories that made this unique land magnificent, we also uncover some unusual movie connections, strange foreshadowing signs, secret tributes, and a few throwbacks to Disney's rich history. We also discover why barns are red, how the O.K. Corral got its name, and why priceless art was removed from one of the restaurants. Kate accidentally says some embarrassing turns of phrase, Kirk talks about edible gold nuggets and we both get excited over some old dinosaur bones.
