"Quarantined Creatives" Podcast.

Sotto explains “Guest Experience 2.0” aboard SkyRanch One with host Heath Racela.

Covid Quarantine brings out the “podcaster” in people, and Eddie is no exception here. This show, unlike the typical theme park history podcasts, focuses on how theme parks are affected by the COVID19 virus, how reopening may hurt the desire to return, and what can be done long term to reimagine the experience in a way that brings people back. Our host, TV producer Heath Racela also expands the conversation into the realm of design and storytelling in the film industry. He asks Sotto to explain how the motion picture production design process compares to and inspired the design of theme parks and attractions.
