You Must Remember This: 39: Star Wars Episode XIII: Walt Disney

March 31, 2015 12:30 PM

Walt Disney changed Hollywood and brought millions of children and adults boundless joy. And yet, Disney's legacy is marred by the common perception that he was also a racist, misogynist and anti-semite.

Thanks for posting this... I've been meaning to give this podcast a listen and this seems like a good entry point.

It's seriously good - I hope you like it. Also start at the beginning of the Star Wars series if you like this one. The stuff before that is good, of course, but I love the stories about Bette Davis and the Hollywood Canteen and it just kind of builds on that momentum.

I'm glad to see this up podcast making the list! Though I'm still on episode 32 (Marlene Dietrich); this will give me the incentive to catch up so I can join the discussion.
