Celebrating 500 Disney Insights Podcasts
We have arrived at this milestone of having delivered 500 podcasts! As I have canvased these many podcasts since 2017, I have found an entire history of Disney milestones mixed with life itself. We will walk through many of those moments, share the emotion of those experiences and see how it has brought us to the present. More than an opportunity to reflect, it’s really a celebration of how so much has happened in these last number of years. I also want to make some announcements of what lies ahead, as there is much to look forward to. So join us as we commemorate our 500th podcast!
