If you believe Disney isn’t just for kids—you’ve found your people. We’re a Disney-obsessed couple who dive into everything from Walt Disney World and Disneyland trip planning to the movies that defined our childhoods.
Every Monday, we bring you lively conversations on the best countries in EPCOT, the latest Disney news, hidden gems, and even which rides and restaurants are overrated. Our mix of park tips, debates, and Disney history is made for Disney adults who crave both magic and nostalgia.
We also welcome special guests—including Disney Legends, Imagineers, former animators, and directors—who share behind-the-scenes stories about creating the attractions, films, and music that shaped generations.
Whether you’re planning your next Disney trip, reminiscing about classic movies, or just love talking Mickey shaped food, Enchanted Ears is your weekly dose of pixie dust.

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.
Disney Cruise Line announce that their newest ship, the Disney Adventure, will have not one, not two, but three attractions including their first ever roller coaster at sea. And if we weren’t excited before, we are now.
It’s hard to believe that it’s been 5 years since the launch of Disney+.
Back then, it was seen as a great value in the world of streaming with access to the entire Disney vault for the low price of $6.99/month.
And while it launched to great fanfare (and the debut of the Mandalorian) it’s been a bit of a roller coaster ride since.
So this week we take a look back at the history of Disney+ and the shifting strategies Disney has taken to try and make it profitable.
Submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode.
