2nd Stockholder proposal: Election of Board of Directors should be proportional so that directors with a minority vote can still be on the board. Just like partisan elections in Congress. What can go wrong?!

Q: what leads to new IP or relying on franchise?

Josh: People do love franchises, but, we have teams developing new original stories (e.g., Hoppers). But we do take what's popular whether a franchise or a new original story, and transport them into other venues, like a park attraction.

Q: How are you incorporating uncle Walt's ideals and legacy into the company.

Josh: Storytelling, blah blah blah. Don't forget Walt was into creating new stuff, so, representing Walt means new things and changes, too.


[Josh is so direct: "Move on to the next question!"]

Q: How do you balance growth in cost with guest satisfaction.

Josh: We're always looking at GSAT. And WRT cost, we try to have some bargains. And need to balance attendance.

Q: How do you distribute revenue with capital expansion, upkeep, investor returns?

Josh: My experience with Experiences, is that investment there leads to more growth. We are looking to investors with dividends and buybacks. We're buying back $7B this year (twice that of last year). Within related industries, we're doing very well.

Q: What about DAS for everyone?!

Josh: We want to be hospitable to those with disabilities. We've consulted with professionals to determine the right level of support with a variety of options. We talk to those families directly about their needs.

Q: Disney's library of legacy content... where is it and where is it going?

Josh: We have a very very deep library. D+ is the heart of that connection to that library.


[Josh misses what was asked: Where's the legacy IP we can't see now]

this answer honestly frustrated me, he talks about how much he grew up on wonderful world of color but only a handful of episodes, if that, are on disney+

hopefully he can get the ball rolling on that though
