    Walt Disney Part 1: I Don’t Care About Making Money

    On February 24, 1939, Walt Disney was relaxing after his recent Oscar win for Snow White when he received a call from the future … In this episode, Walt will tell the story of how he lost the rights to one of his first successes, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, a character that looked a lot like Mickey Mouse. He’ll also explain how he recovered from Bankruptcy, and he’ll talk about the enormous task of drawing 250,000 pictures to create Snow White. Start the episode now to join the conversation. -----   It would take a very talented person to capture the creative, visionary essence of Walt Disney, but in this episode, James Froemel does exactly that.
