For the 50th anniversary, we're breaking down the beginning of The Magic Kingdom and Walt Disney World! There was so much to pack into this episode, we called an audible on air and broke it into two. For part 1, we talk about the decision to go to Florida, how Disney purchased the land while staying incognito, and how Walt's visions for Epcot kept him going, until he tragically passed at the age of 65.
