With the Winter Olympics upon us, Michael Crawford, author of 'The Progress City Primer' returns to discuss Disney's long history with sport, including working with the 1960 Winter Games, owning (for a time) two professional teams, and the many associations the company has with sport organizations and leagues. We also discuss the popularity of RunDisney and the NBA and MLS 'bubble' at Walt Disney World and ESPN Wide World of Sport during the summer of 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Video of this visit is available at https://youtu.be/PrSMHBbJszo. You can engage with Michael on Twitter @ProgressCityUSA and at www.ProgressCityUSA.com. This was a lot of fun and I hope you enjoy it!
