Walt Disney's Journey: It All Started with a Mouse

Walt Disney faced a tough moment in 1929 when he lost a popular cartoon character and his company. With no money and no plans, he started sketching a cheerful mouse during a train ride. He almost named him Mortimer, but his wife suggested the name Mickey instead. That little sketch turned everything around and saved him. Mickey Mouse became a huge hit and led to the Disney empire we know today. Walt always remembered that train ride and how it all started with a mouse.Companies mentioned in this episode:American RewindWalt DisneyMickey MouseThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy
