WDW Radio # 796 - Josh D'Amaro - My Exclusive Interview at D23 with the Disney Experiences Chairman
WDW Radio # 796 - Josh D'Amaro - My Exclusive Interview at D23 with the Disney Experiences Chairman At D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro revealed a groundbreaking lineup of new attractions, lands, and projects that solidify and highlighted Disney's bold vision for the next decade. The event was a remarkable milestone for many reasons, and the highly-anticipated Disney Experiences Showcase fulfilled wishes and exceeded expectations. I had the incredible opportunity and privilege to sit down, one-on-one, with Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro the morning after his presentation to discuss the event, fan speculation, wishes, expectations, and responses. It is a very candid and personal conversation that offers unique insight into the strategy, mission, legacy, and message from this year's presentation. Josh takes us behind the scenes, emphasizing the connection between the Walt Disney Company and its fans. I was remarkably impressed with Josh's transparency, particularly illustrating the importance of listening to fan feedback, including criticism, to understand better and meet high expectations, underlining his humility and dedication to the Disney community. I did not take the responsibility of being granted this interview lightly, and rather than, in the limited but incredibly generous time I had with Josh, try and touch on individual announcements and attractions, but instead focus on the important overarching and significance of the event, and the relationship of the Company and its fans like you and me. So I invite you to pull up a chair, and sit at the table with me and Josh, and hopefully find our conversation as enjoyable, insightful, and rewarding as I did. And of course, huge thanks to Josh, who is someone I didn't think I could like and respect any more, but who gave me new appreciation of him as a fan and leader. (And just so you know... Josh and I shared that hug right after we were done recording). - What did you think about our conversation?

55:46 HERBIE!!!
Hi Lou! I loved the long show and all of the updates.
Hi Lou! Loved the three hour show. The longer the shows are the better!
Hi Lou ! Great episode , 3 hours flew past !
21:20 Bret Iwan Interview
Next time. Ask if he can re hire the best and brightest imagineers we lost to universal
I really like the guy. I just wished he would acknowledge and. Re work Tiana. It’s a horrible redo. This can’t be what we expect all the new expansions to be like. Certainly don’t let the imagineers who did Tiana anywhere near this new stuff. Also the empty room in communicore. Mercy
Lou, I think the biggest issue people have is removing something so Quintessential and it not being a thematic fit, well thought through, or with the care that we’d like to see. I know personally, while I love the ideas themselves, it’s where they are going and what’s going away that I don’t like. And after being burned by the last few years of decisions, where Tiana’s “feels” like it is being shoehorned in, with technical issues, confusing story, and empty space, and where the center of Epcot feels worse than just leaving it as it was, I am apprehensive. Likewise, I have been disappointed that instead of updating some core concepts to the parks, they are being replaced all together. The exception to this is Test Track, and I have no doubt it would have made way for something else if Chevy wasn’t the sponsor. I’d love to see leadership valuing the parks as their own IP and breathing new life into them without thematic change on a budget.
Hi Lou ! Nice discussion today. Lots of good and different perspectives by the group.
Would have loved specifics about WHY Rivers of America and TSI for Cars, as well as what happens to Muppets ( in regards to where Monsters goes? Finally would love to know how he feels about balancing the history and legacy vs. any stuff that goes in and what it replaces. There is a feeling in the veteran Disney crowd that there is no value in its history anymore, yet I don’t think Josh believes that. Be curious to hear his thoughts.
They recorded this before any of that was announced on the Monday after D23 All of that was hidden because, unlike Universal right now, they outright don’t respect their audience/guests/customers Josh is just straight up withholding the information so he can be praised for what seems like a successful set of announcements knowing it would cause people to be upset Not the podcast’s fault
I just like him
Wish they hadn’t hid the Rivers of America destruction announcement, feels kind of gross and casts a pall over an otherwise impressive set of announcements
It’s taken all the excitement I’ve had over the D23 announcements and just made it incredibly sad. I’m no longer looking forward to any of it.
I wish you could have pushed him a bit more on specifics - Disney's reaction to Epic Universe, the IP mandate for attractions, specifics on locations for the recently announced lands etc. Great opportunity but this felt mostly like a PR interview. But maybe you don't get to interview Disney execs like this if you ask those kinds of pointed questions.
Too bad part 2 got deleated.😥
I certainly hope this man takes over after Bob leaves because he’s fantastic!
Hi Vanessa and Andrew
What are the odds of watching this and seeing my sister and bro in law in shades of green? Funny stuff!
I was adding a doctor's appointment to my calendar and there is a wdw cruise date on my calendar, what magical tech do you have hmm or is that you God?
I was there in 71 , December I was scared to death of the haunted mansion. What a place we never wanted to leave
The solo podcast worked really well. Since I’m not on Facebook I was excited to hear you have a booth cam and it will be on CZcams. Can’t wait!
Hi Lou ! Cool stories ! Would love to do D23 one day.
I’m still hoping we get that avengers e ticket ride for dca that they have been promising us for years!
They had CGI in the 70s?!
Yo!
Hi Lou !
Interestingly the day that Disney World first opened: October 1, 1971 was Julie Andrews’ 36th birthday. How’s that for a birthday present that she got to present the grand opening of Disney World?
Thank you for continuing the CZcams experiment. It has made your content much more accessible to those of us that won’t join Facebook and do not have flexibility to watch these live.
I just wanna say, as someone who has listened to you forever, it warms my heart to know you're watching anime with your kid :)
Hi Lou !
during Supercalifragileisticexpealidocious, am I the *ONLY* one hearing in their head Melvin: EARNEST, were you *NOT* listening to the opening spiel? I *SAID NO* SMOKING!"
I would love to see a new Magic Kingdom night time parade.
If I could get one thing from this D23, it would be Dreamfinder’s return to the Imagination pavilion.
Are they now going to ruin Peter Pan? Please do not do anything stupid Disney.
I'd vote for a muppet president at this point
So glad these are on CZcams not just FB now I’m on here 98% more often great decision
I hope they announce more about the avengers e ticket ride they have been promising us for California Adventure since 2019 lol
Thanks to Julie Andrew great performance on “Mary Poppin’s’ movie Disney made millions in profits enough to help finance WDW
Fix Tiana. Please.
I’m hoping for them to announce a lot more info and an opening date for the avengers e ticket (that they have been promising us at California adventure since 2019)
Hi Lou!
Hi Lou ! Food looks good !
Love Portillo’s Dogs Chicago Style and Italian Beef with Hot Peppers 😋
Hello!
What a great show. I love the Top Tens with Lou and Tim!
Hi Lou ! Great topic for this show ! So many Disney sounds evoke nostalgic memories !!
Hi Lou! Enjoyed the show !
Hi Lou ! Thank you for always keeping things positive!
Correction military ID needed to buy alcohol or tobacco. Both my sons purchased items without ID as long as they are staying at the resort. PX or BX prices, great prices for staying on Diseny and all food prices are very reasonable. Really enjoy the resort and thanks for the video
Hi Lou!
