About this listen

This week we're talking about the history of amusement parks, from Renaissance Faires and Pleasure Gardens to American Amusement Parks. We discuss theme parks like Disney Land, Six Flags and Universal Studios, and America's best and worst amusement parks, Cedar Point and Action Park. We've even got a couple asides about carousels and the physics of roller coasters.
