In this special episode, we've pulled another episode out of the DYKD archives. This fully remastered episode features Freddy Martin interviewing the great Disney Imagineer Bob Gurr.

In fact, toward the end of the episode, Freddy and Bob talk about some personal stories involving Bob and Walt. So sit back, relax, and enjoy this very unique and wonderful interview. A very special thank you to Dr. Barry Hill for mixing the interview footage.
