I’ve been a loyal listener of Lou’s podcast (WDW Radio) for years, and have had the opportunity to listen to the audio versions of the interviews featured in this book. BUT - this book takes them to the next level! I love the additional history, images, and the longer length transcripts. It’s like experiencing them all again for the first time.
If you’re a fan of Disney history, behind the scenes magic, or just non-fiction works in general, you need to buy this book! I can’t recommend it highly enough.
Looking forward to Volume 2 already!

Passion. That is what sets this book apart from many others. The author, Lou Mongello, is extremely passionate about all things Disney and that really shines through in this book of amazing interviews he has conducted. Marty Sklar, Julie Andrews and Richard Sherman are just a few of the Disney Legends featured. On page after page you will learn fascinating incite into the minds of the people behind the Disney magic. If you or someone you know loves Disney history like I do grab a copy of this book right now. And then go subscribe to Lou Mongello’s WDW Radio podcast to keep the Disney fun going.

You'll be hard pressed to find a more genuine or humble guy on the plant, that loves Disney like Lou. And that love simply explodes in his newest book, The Disney Interviews. This is a labor of love, born out of years he has spent talking with and getting to knowing so many who share that same feelings about Walt Disney and his parks. It's the feel good book of 2020. So...if you want to "Choose The Good" this holiday season, buy it today. If fact, it's the best gift you could give to any Disney fan this year!

What little I've read is disappointing. The interviews don't appear to be edited as there are a lot of fawning comments in them. While that may have sounded nice on the podcast it doesn't read well.

Full disclosure, I bought this book the night is was announced. I have listened to Lou for years and enjoy his show. I also have a deep love for all things Disney. I had previously listened to these interviews, so you might ask why I bought the book. Because, I love reading. there is something about reading the words that helps sink them in deep, as opposed to potentially being distracted as I listened. This book is FABULOUS. I am serious, it is really, really good. Reading these interviews, I am transported back to an era I wished I could really go to. These are amazing people, beyond creative, who produced some of my favorite forms of entertainment ever. There is insight, humility, love, and a tremendous desire to do great work in the words of these Legends. Lou asks great questions, the questions any of us would want to ask if we could get the words out. Some one complained Lou fawns over the people, well, wouldn't you. Julie Freaking Andrews, of course you fawn, she is one of the greatest talents of all time. Richard Sherman, one of half of one of the greatest song writing teams ever. If you love Disney, you get how important these people are. Read the book, listen to the interviews and you will get more true insight into Disney than almost anywhere else. Well done, Lou!

The best DID YOU KNOW book about Disney! Entertaining, Informing, Positive and a GREAT Interviewer
Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2021Verified Purchase
Lou Mongello has been interviewing members of the Disney family for over a decade on his WDWRAdio podcast which is upbeat, positive, and a great listen. He took these interviews to print form and once again doesn't disappoint in this reader's opinion. The format is a concise and a thorough writing of Lou's conversations in a series of exchanges that are pulled from his excellent podcast. What I personally enjoy about the book is it doesn't require batteries and can go wherever you go. In other words, you can take along this book to your favorite reading spot, jumping quickly in and out of so many conversations where you learn some very interesting details whether shared by Julie Andrews, Richard Sherman, Marty Sklar or any of the key figures who have brought us so many great Disney memories and experiences. Whether new to Disney or a veteran of all Disney experiences, you will get some insight from these stories that will truly entertain you and keep you looking for more.
In my picture you will see two copies. One is a gift for a fellow family member. You will also note the phrase "Choose the Good". This is a phrase Lou embraces in all he does which is also evident in his interviews. So for a positive and uplifting read, I highly recommend this book.

Having been a loyal listener of WDW radio for years, I’ve had the pleasure of hearing these interviews. Now experiencing them again in written form is allowing me to enjoy them all over again. Lou is a wonderful interviewer, and the conversations he has with these Disney legends allows the reader to get to know them like never before. Lou is a Disney fan first, which ensures his questions are the ones you want answered. This book is a must have for any Disney fan.
