Enchanted Ears - Anything & Everything Disney

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, your favorite place to hear a guy named Joe and a lady named Angela talk about Disney until they’re as blue in the face as Stitch (which, to be clear, is a desired look).

Ugh...Disney News this week is a bummer. Disney laid off 28,000 Cast Members due to the pandemic. If you’d like to help out the impacted Cast Members, consider donating to the Cast Member Pantry or local food banks in Orlando and Southern California.

Also, in more bleh news, D23 has been postponed until 2022. The upside though is they’ll announce some of their 100th Anniversary festivities.

It’s hard to introduce the topic this week after that, but this week we continue a fan favorite series, Disney Decade. This go round we’re delving into the 1990s. The ‘90s is maybe one of Disney’s best decades to date. The Disney Renaissance happened, there are massive park expansions and new parks built, great TV shows are made, sooooo many hotels come to fruition, and Disney acquires a major TV network.

Thank you so much as always for listening! We hope you have a magical week!

Attraction Backstories You Never Knew

Hello and welcome to the best Disney podcast that is recorded by a couple of Disney-loving, kitten-crazy, floppy eared dog enthusiasts.

This week in Disney News, rumored earnings from Mulan make the movie a huge success. This makes us wonder if the rumor that Pixar's Soul will also be released on streaming has a strong likelihood to be true. Tokyo Disneyland also soft-opened Enchanted Tales of Beauty and the Beast, another trackless ride with lots to see. Joe and I watched the ride video and were a little underwhelmed, but maybe it's different if you actually ride it! Sit back this week and prepare to have your mind bent and your ride experiences forever altered. Let me explain. You know how authors tend to write more background on a character than is ever given in a story? This week, we delve into the not-so-well-known ride backgrounds after seeing the mind-blowing post that you're actually dead when riding The Haunted Mansion. Yep! You read that right! You die during the ride! Hear about this and other crazy ride backgrounds that you wouldn't guess in your wildest dreams. (Seriously, you won't believe the back stories for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad OR Pirates of the Caribbean!) We hope you have a magical week full of pumpkin spice (if that's your sort of thing) and apple-picking.

Which Disney Characters Would We Adopt?

Hey, you! Yes, you! Fancy seeing you here! Thanks for joining us for another week of Enchanted Ears, your place for anything and everything Disney. This week in Disney News, a live-action Lion King sequel has been announced with Moonlight director Barry Jenkins at the helm. This movie is set to explore young Mufasa's life and we're casually optimistic about it. Also, in a not-so-surprising turn of events, Disney announces that Pixar's Soul will be released directly to Disney+ on Christmas day. Lastly, Space Mountain appears to be the next ride in line to join the ranks of Pirates of the Caribbean, Jungle Cruise, and Haunted Mansion by having its own movie. We speculate where it will be released and what on earth they have to go on. It seems to be a dark void of possibility, that's sure to have a few stars. (Puns very very intended.) This week, we were inspired by our new kittens, Laszlo and Nandor, and thought, "If we could have Disney animals as our pets, who would we want to adopt?" In this hilarious episode, you learn a LOT about Joe and I based on our picks. Take a guess on who goes with mostly conventional creatures and who goes with more exotic pets. We also pick apart each other's choices because it wouldn't be any fun if we didn't give each other a hard time. Be sure to let us know who YOU would choose to have as your Disney pets on our social media outlets, especially our Enchanted Ears Family Facebook Group. We hope you have a magical week!
