Disney At 100: The ’60s – The Best Of Times & The Worst Of Times
We’re back with another show exploring the 100 Years of Wonder that is the Walt Disney Company. This week, we take a look back at another interesting time in the company’s history with our Disney At 100 – The 1960s episode. Big things were happening within this time frame and most of it was great. However, there was also a big moment that would change the company, forever. That’s why we’re calling this segment, The Best of Times & The Worst of Times.
In this show, we referenced several other episodes that focus on specific time frames within the era in more detail. Here are the links to these episodes if you’d like to hear more!
Once we complete our Disney At 100 – The ’50s & ’60s segment, it’s time for the Disney Stories of the Week. In this episode, we tell you about a lot of interesting Walt Disney World information. Including some fun, new character meet and greets that are coming soon throughout the resort. We also share interesting EPCOT news about the park’s future. And we discuss when you’ll be able to snag a dessert party spot for the return of Happily Ever After.
As always, we wrap it all up with tips that might help you on your next vacation.
