Chapek also says that Disney employees have been discouraged from keeping in contact with him and that he hasn't heard from CEO Josh D'Amaro since 2022. Chapek discusses his departure from the media giant, the company's path ahead, and his new book 'Behind the Castle Walls: My Thirty Years at the Happiest Place on Earth' with Bloomberg's Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec. -------- Watch Bloomberg Radio LIVE on YouTube Weekdays 7am-6pm ET Saturday & Sunday 7am-10am ET WATCH HERE: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF Follow us on X: https://twitter.com/BloombergRadio Subscribe to our Podcasts: Bloomberg Daybreak: http://bit.ly/3DWYoAN Bloomberg Surveillance: http://bit.ly/3OPtReI Bloomberg Intelligence: http://bit.ly/3YrBfOi Balance of Power: http://bit.ly/3OO8eLC Bloomberg Businessweek: http://bit.ly/3IPl60i Listen on Apple CarPlay and Andro
