Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #335: A Disney Renaissance

By the mid-1980s the Walt Disney Company was in turmoil, but it saw a historical turnaround with the appointment of Michael Eisner as chairman and CEO. It was two decades of growth, innovation, and drama. We are joined this week by Sean and Kevin from the Captioned Life Podcast as we take a look at the "Eisner Era" and how it affected both popular culture and our childhoods.
