Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.
This week in Disney News, Pixar Fest has begun and we’re absolutely amazed by the number of amazing characters they’re bringing out!
Disney can be such a great conversation starter and way to find friends in unexpected places.
That’s exactly what happened when we were able to connect with a fellow podcast host over our mutual love of Disney (and running). This week’s guest, Joe Corcione, is the host of the Everyday Ultra Podcast, an ultra runner who will be running the Cocodona 250 next week, and a HUGE Disney fan.
This week we talk about why he connects so deeply on a personal level with the characters and messaging in the movies. From there we get into a really awesome deep conversation about life, running, activating your inner superhero, and so much more.
Even if you loathe running, you’ll still be able to listen and apply so much of Joe’s knowledge and mental tricks to activating your best self in order to be a better person.
And don’t forget to head on over to Joe’s Instagram @joecorcione and subscribe to the Everyday Ultra Podcast. There’s so much gold to be found there!!

Monday Apr 22, 2024
Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.
How well do you know Disney’s most popular movies?
Could you name the movie from a single quote?
Could you name the character delivering the line?
Well this week we put that knowledge to the test when we play “Guess the Movie”. Angela offers up a series of quotes and Joe must prove his love of Disney or embarrass himself so much that Angela is forced to find a new Co-Host.
Be sure to let us know how many you got correct.

Ranking Disney's Cancelled Attractions
Monday Feb 26, 2024
Monday Feb 26, 2024
Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.
We got our first look at the new Tiana animatronic and it looks beautiful.
Plus, Disney filed permits to demolish the building of the short-lived NBA Experience. We speculate on what could be next for the location.
Have you ever dreamed of riding a bantha?
Walking through a Revolution-era town?
Battling evil forces in a Quinjet in Wakanda?
If you have, you're either an imagineer, or you stay up-to-date with all of the things Disney said they would build at one time, but alas, it wasn't meant to be. This week we talk canceled attractions or refurbishments and rank them based on how excited we would be to ride them if they were ever actually made.

Disney's Unsung Hero
Monday Feb 19, 2024
Monday Feb 19, 2024
Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.
Universal Studios finally announced all of the lands in Epic Universe and we question what the reception will be like once the park opens.
We love Walt Disney, and his name is synonymous with the Disney parks, movies, and company as a whole.
But, today, we want to take a step back and pay some respects to one of the other, lesser known, Disney brothers: Roy O. Disney.
Roy, ever his brother's companion and in many ways, his other half, doesn't always come up in the conversation.
However, without Roy, there is some question as to whether Walt would've had the great success he did.
So who was Roy Disney? And what did he do to make Walt's dream become a reality?
Listen in and you'll see just why Roy deserves a little more credit than he often gets.
And don’t forget to send us those Sea Shanties
