Episode 509 – Friday with Friends 09/13/2019 (Michael Eisner)

Bryan RipperPodcast

On this week’s Friday with Friends listener interaction show, I’m featuring another discussion topic that was suggested by one of our listeners. Nate Evans, who is the husband of one of our regular guests Sarah Evans, recently started reading the book “Disney War” by James B. Stewart and thought it would be a great idea to talk about some of Disney’s CEO’s. So, this week, we’re going to talk about none other than Michael Eisner, who was CEO of The Walt Disney Company from 1984 – 2005. Together, we’ll look at some of his successes and failures as well as pull back the curtain to reveal some of the dramatic confrontations that happened behind the scenes during his time with the company.

Check out these books that were mentioned on this episode!
