Episode Notes We're discussing the possible genesis of Pixar films Toy Story and Inside Out, the genteel and lovely Winnie the Pooh. The tales of the stuffed friends belonging to Christopher Robin, each epitomizing a different aspect of both the human condition and the features of childhood is firmly set in the world of books - literally. There's definitely someone here you are going to relate to - probably many someones and it's like stepping into a warm hug that sings perfect songs. This is the best of what Disney can do.

We often talk about “telling a story” in photography. But when you look closer, a single image may only hold part of the story: the introduction, the climax, or maybe the resolution. In this week's podcast, I explore how frameworks like Freytag's Pyramid, the Hero's Journey, and Pixar's methods can inspire us to think differently about our photographs and how they connect with others.

http://www.attractionchecklist.com - In July 2025, Tom Sawyer Island in Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom closed for good.  Let's take one last walk around the Island before the memory fades on this episode of Attraction Checklist. Attraction audio recorded on May 21, 2025. TRANSCRIPT: This episode we're off to Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom to take a stroll around Tom Sawyer Island.  The Walt Disney World guide map described this attraction saying: Brave this Mark Twain-inspired hideaway. There are no age or height requirements or a thrill level listed for this attraction. Before we board a raft, here are five fast facts about Tom Sawyer Island at Magic Kingdom. 1. Tom Sawyer island opened at Magic Kingdom on May 20, 1973. 2. The Fort on the Island, Fort Langhorn, was originally called Fort Samuel Clemens, but the name was changed in 1996 in a moment of synergy with the Walt Disney Pictures film Tom & Huck. 3.  The barn on the island used to have an effect that made it seem like it was on fire.  Viewed primarily from the riverboat, this effect was ended in 2005. 4. In August 2024, Disney announced that Tom Sawyer Island would be closing to make way for a new Frontierland expansion themed to the Pixar movie Cars. 5. Tom Sawyer Island official closed on July 7, 2025.  Bringing the 52 year life of Tom Sawyer Island to a close. Let's go explore Tom Sawyer Island.  Along for the adventure, the Huck to my Tom, is John B. deHaas and after we check out the attraction we'll give you our thoughts on it.  This is a binaural recording so if you have headphones, put them on now as we visit Magic Kingdom's Tom Sawyer Island for the very last time.

Episode SummaryErin and Rachel wallow through an elderly man's grief journey with Pixar's critically acclaimed Up (2009). They argue the beautiful art and cute sidekicks aren't enough to redeem this (admittedly beloved) film, especially since the (admittedly moving) love story invokes the classic “dead wife” trope. We'll keep sailing our balloon house onto the next one, please and thank you. Episode BibliographyAdler, S. (2008, August 7).

In this episode of The Fake Ass Book Club, the hosts dive into the world of Reddit relationship questions...because sometimes strangers on the internet have the juiciest stories. Before the advice-giving begins, they unpack Snoop Dogg's out-of-touch reaction to seeing a seemingly loving lesbian couple raising children in Pixar's Lightyear. From there, things get delightfully messy as they offer their own takes on complicated love dilemmas, messy breakups, and “what would you do?” moments.

On this podcast episode I dive deep with Wesley Stevens, the founder of Vox, Inc. Wes shares his fascinating journey from starting as an intern in the voiceover industry to becoming a highly successful agent. In this episode, explore the evolution of voiceover, the impact of technology on the industry, and what it takes to make it as a voiceover artist today. Whether you're a seasoned professional or new to the scene, this episode is packed with insights and advice from one of the industry's most experienced agents.   Wes has advocated for talent as a profession since 1994. He started in Columbus, Ohio at a small agency booking variety acts before joining Talent Group, Inc. (TGI) in Los Angeles in 1995 as an assistant. Seven years later, he acquired TGI's voice-over department and launched VOX, Inc. Wes has represented some of the biggest names in film, television, social media and music, alongside brands including Pixar, Disney, DreamWorks, Fox, GE, Apple, Dodge, Jaguar and Sprint. His first booking of note was placing David Hyde Pierce in "A Bugs Life," and the journey took him back to Pixar in 2009, when he placed Ed Asner in "Up." Along that road there have been many campaigns, series, films, and fond memories.   Having built the company off the springboard of his specialization in animation and gaming, the company's success led to diversification into celebrity endorsements and innovative deals in hosting, podcasting, AI and other emerging media and technologies. Wes helps talented people create powerful, equitable, and long-term relationships. He thrills at the opportunity to connect the right talented people with each other.   Wes was born in Virginia. He is a military brat, an Eagle Scout and a graduate of the University of Virginia. Wes has run seven full marathons from Honolulu to Florence, Italy. He is very involved with Amazon Conservation Team and with Best Buddies, a global charity promoting the full integration of individuals with intellectual disabilities into mainstream society. He is passionate about creativity in all its expressions. Wes resides in Los Angeles with his husband and two pups.   Want to connect with Wes?

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, comedian Rudy Pavich joins Adam to break down the latest headlines, starting with Snoop Dogg admitting he was caught off guard when his grandson asked about a same-sex couple in Pixar's Lightyear. The hosts of The Breakfast Club weighed in, defending Snoop's concerns over LGBTQ themes in children's movies. Adam and Rudy also discuss a viral video of a North Carolina mom who physically restrained a suspected Italian pickpocket for nearly an hour, Delta's $79 million settlement with Los Angeles residents over a 2020 jet fuel dump, and the news that former NFL quarterback Jay Cutler has been sentenced to jail time following a DUI and gun possession arrest.Later, criminal defense attorney Mark Geragos stops by the studio to talk about his involvement in the Menendez brothers case, which he says Adam inadvertently influenced him to take on. Mark explains what made the brothers' recent parole hearing so frustrating, and he and Adam debate whether the Menendez brothers still pose a danger to society or if they've served enough time for their crimes. The conversation turns to the role politics may have played in the case, whether Governor Gavin Newsom could pardon the brothers, and what happens next. Adam also gets Mark's take on the ongoing P. Diddy case, as well as a tragic accident involving an immigrant truck driver whose illegal U-turn resulted in multiple deaths.Get it on.FOR MORE MARK GERAGOS:Menendez Parole HearingWEBSITE: Geragos.comFOR MORE WITH RUDY PAVICH: INSTAGRAM: @rudy_pavichWEBSITE: www.rudypavichcomedy.comThank you for supporting our sponsors:BetterHelp.com/CAROLLAHomes.comoreillyauto.com/ADAMPluto.tvSIMPLISAFE.COM/ADAMLIVE SHOWS: September 6 - Charlotte, NCSeptember 12-13 - El Paso, TX (4 Shows) See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ever feel like your brain is fried from too much input, but not enough output? Like you're consuming podcasts, scrolling social feeds, reading articles, binge-watching YouTube—and yet when it comes time to spark your next big idea… you're blank? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I break down what I call the innovation igniter. And no, it's not about forcing yourself into some high-pressure “brainstorming session” with a whiteboard and stale coffee. It's about creating the conditions where real breakthroughs can flow.I've studied how innovation really happens—not just for me, but for executives, entrepreneurs, and creatives across industries. McKinsey reports that 84% of leaders believe innovation is critical for growth, yet 94% admit they're unhappy with their results. That gap? It's not a lack of talent—it's a lack of the right environment for ideas to actually ignite.So here are the three main conditions that fuel innovation. First, you need space to think without pressure. Cortisol, the stress hormone, literally shuts down the prefrontal cortex—your idea factory. You gotta schedule sacred “think time,” device-free, even if it's just 90 minutes a week. Second, you need diverse perspectives to challenge your assumptions. Stats show diverse teams outperform by 35% in problem-solving. That's why I love masterminds where we've got people from totally different backgrounds pushing each other into new insights. Third, you need freedom to explore without judgment. That “yes, and…” mindset that Pixar and improv comedy thrive on. No idea is too weird at first—let it breathe before you kill it.Beyond those conditions, I also share a framework: block weekly think time, seek cross-pollination with outsiders, and create environments where wild ideas are celebrated. When you do this, breakthroughs stop being “lucky moments” and start becoming predictable. For me, that often happens out in the Montana backcountry during our Epic Camping Adventures. Phones off. Nature on. Minds open. And boom—million-dollar ideas drop.If you're stuck in consumption mode, overloaded with info but starving for wisdom, this episode is for you. It'll give you permission to slow down, clear the noise, and make space for the brilliance that's already in you. Because innovation isn't luck—it's a muscle. And with the right conditions, you can flex it anytime you need.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

Brit Cruise—educator, filmmaker, and producer of Pixar in a Box—takes us on a journey through the fusion of storytelling, science, and education. From his early days editing videos with dual VCRs to his innovative work at Khan Academy, Brit reveals how deep focus, analog creativity, and a love for explanation helped shape his approach to teaching complex subjects through immersive visuals. With storytelling as the core, he shares how each lesson in Pixar in a Box connects school-taught concepts like math and physics to the movie magic of Pixar, showing students that what they learn can have real, creative application. Throughout the conversation, Brit explores his philosophy that creativity is “the ability to deal with unknowns,” emphasizing iteration, structure, and the power of simplicity. He also gives us a glimpse into the upcoming storytelling curriculum at Pixar in a Box, where students will storyboard their own shorts from scratch. For filmmakers, educators, and curious minds alike, this episode is a masterclass in how to bring clarity, authenticity, and joy into the learning and creative process.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

https://youtu.be/PniriBnM0mo Legacy may not be the number 1 driver for most business owners—but it's close. Right after financial security, wealth creation, and personal freedom. In this video, we explore why building a successful business is one of the most powerful, controllable, and lasting ways to make an impact that lives on long after you're gone. You'll hear real examples of entrepreneurs who started late and still changed the world—like Colonel Sanders, Arianna Huffington, and Ray Kroc—and discover why business can be a greater legacy-builder than sports, politics, or entertainment. We'll also look at how great businesses multiply impact—helping employees, customers, and entire communities—while setting you up to attract A-players and create something that stands the test of time. If you're ready to grow your company faster, with less risk and cost, tune in—and remember: it's never too late to start building your legacy. --- What Will Be Your Legacy? What will be your legacy? “Legacy” isn't the most important driver for most business owners to grow their business—but it's damn close. Right behind financial security, wealth creation, and achieving personal freedom. I've always believed that building a successful business is the most straightforward way to create a legacy that lives on well after you're gone. Sure, you can do it in other ways through athletic achievement, becoming a rock or movie star, writing bestselling books, or achieving top political office. But creating a business often requires fewer sacrifices of youth, health, and integrity. It's also far more controllable. Making it big as an athlete is usually decided in childhood. It's mostly a function of parenting an environment. Becoming a rock star or a movie star also hinges on youth, inborn talent, or early desire. Again, largely environment-driven. Becoming a famous author is exceedingly rare and often takes writing dozens of books before one gets recognized, let alone achieves name recognition. Political careers are mostly self-created, but it can be a long road to breaking free of party whips and agendas—if that ever happens. Turning politics into a lasting positive legacy is even rarer. No more than a handful of examples emerged each century, if that. Now compare all of these to building a business legacy. Business success is rarely threatened by injuries, addictions, or character assassinations. You can start at nearly any age. Martha Stewart was a model, caterer, and author before launching her media company in her fifties. Ray Kroc, a milkshake machine salesman, saw potential in the McDonald's burger stand and launched a franchise model at age 52. John Pemberton, a Civil War veteran and pharmacist, created the original formula for Coca-Cola at the age of 55 while seeking an alternative to morphine. Arianna Huffington, after a successful career as an author and commentator at age 55, launched The Huffington Post in 2005, which became a leading digital news platform. Colonel Harland Sanders, after a series of jobs and running a gas station restaurant, began franchising his fried chicken recipe at age 65, using his first Social Security check to fund the idea. And you can build quietly sneaking up on competitors until it's too late for them to catch up. The best part? A great business is an impact multiplier. You can help your employees, their families, and all the customers who benefit from your superior products and services. If you own a viable business, you have a massive opportunity to grow it and make it highly profitable so you can attract and retain A-players and build a lasting pyramid for yourself. The heroes of our age are business entrepreneurs who change the world around us. Steve Jobs, founder of Apple Next, and CEO of Pixar. Revolutionized personal computing, digital animation, digital music, and cracked the code on tablet computing and smartphones. Sam Mond,

The world is becoming pixelated.
