Nestled deep in the Ozark Mountains of Branson, Missouri is a park that has long been on Andrew's theme park bucket list - Silver Dollar City. A park with an immensely rich history, Silver Dollar City is celebrating 64 years of operation this season with an all-new roller coaster, Fire in the Hole. 

Andrew is joined on the podcast this week by Dalton Fischer, Communications Manager for Silver Dollar City Attractions, to get the run-down on all-things SDC. From history, to coasters, to finding out if there are indeed sharks in Mystic River Falls, to Fire in the Hole, and more - you might even find out Silver Dollar City's secret ingredient for Cinnamon Bread in this week's episode.
