[applause] It was Walt Disney, and today's, uh, little story is about that.
James SinclairHOST
So I was listening to a podcast about Mr. Disney, uh, and how he built Disneyland on Universal v Disney on, uh, Business Wars, and also Acquired wrote the story, um, a little thing about Walt Disney, and I thought I'd share some of the things that I picked up on this, on how he started Disneyland, because it's not your lack of resources, it's your lack of resourcefulness that stops you.
James SinclairHOST
Now, when Walt Disney wanted to build Disneyland, Mr. Michael Chudley and Mr. Stefan, he still...
James SinclairHOST
And this is so relevant for your business, isn't it? Um, he was very successful.

So me and Chad, we went and done a speaking gig yesterday, and we listened to Business Wars, which is one of my favourite podcasts, and they've done a little story about GoPro.
James SinclairHOST

[dramatic music] In the early 2000s, Roombas began whirring around millions of US homes, sucking up pet hair and Cheerios, among other things.
David BrownHOST
The circular vacuums were a success story for their American inventors, bringing us one step closer to the scene on The Jetsons where robots do the work while we play.

From Audible Originals, I'm David Brown, and this is Business Wars.
David BrownHOST
[dramatic music]Hey, do you have a robot in your home? Chances are if you do, it's a Roomba or a copycat Roomba, one of those low-slung disc-shaped devices humming across your living room floor, bumping into chair legs, getting stuck under the couch, and quietly eating dust bunnies while you eat dinner.
David BrownHOST
In fact, you might have even named your Roomba.

Half a world away, though, competitors in China are ramping up.
David BrownHOST
They're aiming to bring faster and cheaper robot vacuums to the masses.
David BrownHOST
This fresh competition comes with a question, can the Roomba sweep up its challengers, or is the world's best-selling robot vacuum already headed for the dustbin? Be sure to follow Business Wars on Audible or wherever you get your podcasts.

It's really extraordinary stuff.
Ram AhluwaliaHOST
There's a fun podcast, if you're into this, called Business Wars.
Ram AhluwaliaHOST
So if you're on a road trip this long weekend, I recommend listening to that.
Ram AhluwaliaHOST
It's a serial podcast, like three to five episodes on a topic, like the history of Coca-Cola versus Pepsi, Netflix versus Blockbuster.
