The One with Dave's Disney Leap
The Main Street Electrical Podcast: A Disney Podcast
In the 256th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave are once again split up - Jenn is out of the studio today, while Dave takes the mic solo. This time is a different sort of episode, as June 25th is a very dear date to Dave, as the anniversary of a simple email that solidified his own Disney journey. He'll share that story with you, plus give you some encouragement on finding your own journey and having the will to leap forward in it. Plus, young Campbell makes an appearance, and Dave reads a little known essay from none other than Walt himself.
