A Warning To My Listeners: Today’s episode features Mature Subject Matter that may Not be Suitable for Children.

Walter Elias Disney, aka Walt Disney, was the entrepreneur of all entrepreneur’s,an  animator, a writer, a voice actor, and major film producer. Disney was a pioneer of the animation industry because established several developments in the creation of cartoons. However, a lot of his famous disney movies that we all grew up on are “cleaned up, happy versions” of books and some even have sinister real life stories behind them.

Join me in today's episode where I discuss where the inspiration came from for many of our favorite Disney movies growing up... it's not as happy as you'd think!
