Episode 34 focuses on some of Central Floridas smaller tourist attractions, both past and present, and includes interviews with Holly & Dolly about Rosie O'Grady's Good Time Emporium, Dorothy Mays about Gatorland, and Michael Wanzie about the Parliament House Resort.
Abstract
This podcast looks at some of Central Florida’s smaller tourist attractions, both past and present. We interview Holly and Dolly about Rosie O’Grady’s, Dorothy Mays about Gatorland, and Michael Wanzie about the Parliament House to see how these places withstood the evolution of Central Florida from small town to metropolis. Whether it was the arrival of highways or the major theme parks like Disney and SeaWorld, we hope to demonstrate that not only were the effects of these major changes diverse in each respect, but that they can be seen simultaneously as both good and bad.

Abstract
In this podcast, Adam Cohen interviews two representatives from the Parliament House who have lived in Central Florida and worked there practically since it opened, giving us insight into how the GLBT community in Central Florida, and even outside the country, came to see the establishment as a second home. We will see how the creation of a popular gay establishment, in a place not known at the time for its gay community, is a difficult task, and look at its journey to becoming one of Central Florida’s most popular attractions.

Episode 16 explores the field of public history of Central Florida and includes an interview with Jean Yothers, an Orlando native and descendant of a pioneer family. Yothers has dedicated nearly 40 years to promoting an interest in Central Florida history, both at The Orlando Sentinel and at the Orange County Historical Museum, now called the Orange County Regional History Center.
Abstract
In this podcast, Adam Cohen interviews Jean Yothers, an Orlando native and descendant of a pioneer family who has dedicated nearly forty years to promoting an interest in Central Florida history, both at the Orlando Sentinel and at the Orange County Historical Museum. Her family’s experience and influence on her, along with her own time spent in the field of public history, are precious treasures that help us understand not only how one of Central Florida’s earliest families grew and developed, but how the field of public history has changed and come to be what it is today.
