Bob Iger Returns as Disney CEO, What it Means for the House of Mouse

Out with the new Bob, in with the old Bob? It has been 3 weeks since our last What's Poppin' episode and, in that time, Disney made the shocking announcement that Bob Chapek is "stepping down" and Bob Iger is returning as CEO. Bob Iger has perhaps the most illustrious résumé of any Disney CEO other than Walt himself. But now he returns to a company that is struggling financially and does so with a 2-year deadline to right the ship and name another successor. In this episode, we'll discuss all of the details of this massive reversal in direction and what it could mean for Disney both near-term and long-term.
