#5 - Cast Member Stories Series - Interview with Walt Disney World College Program Alumni Nic Swader
This is the 2nd episode in our Cast Member stories series and I sit down with Nic Swader to discuss his experience on the Walt Disney World College Program in fall 2016.
We talk about how his initial love for Disney grew into a desire to work at Walt Disney World, some of the behind the scenes info of his work location at Space Mountain and what he loved most about it.
We also dive into a very cool and special experience he had trying out for and being cast in one of the Disney Parks most honored holiday traditions, the Candlelight Processional. He shares about his audition experience, what celebrity narrators he got to sing with and the excitement this honor brought to his family and friends.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
