Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney!
This week in Disney News, the Marvel Netflix shows will be coming to Disney+ on March 16th. Disney will also be adding parental controls to keep that content away from the kids! Also, they’re adding an Ad-supported version of Disney+ for those hoping to pay a little less for all that good Disney content.
If you feel like you’re lacking a little human-ish contact, never fear! Character hugs are back at Disneyland Paris!
And lastly, a new light show debuted for the International Flower and Garden Festival on Spaceship Earth. It’s set to “Colors of the Wind” and the colors are beautiful pastels and earth tones.

We share what you definitely should do and some things you should avoid to make sure you can have a fun, stress-free trip.

This week in Disney News, Disneyland announced the Main Street Electrical Light Parade, Disneyland Forever, and World of Color coming back to Disneyland on April 22, and Fantasmic will return May 28.
Across the country, Flower and Garden in Epcot starts on March 2. The menu this year sees the return of a lot of favorites along with some exciting new delicacies!
Several rides are going to be moving off of Lightning Lane and to Disney Genie+ including Frozen Ever After, Space Mountain, and Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Rail.
And the big news this week is the media embargo ended on the media previews, so there’s tons of information out there finally about the Galactic Starcruiser, and real experiences (however, they were all free experiences without the hefty price tag, so keep that in mind).
This week, we talk about the plausibility of various fan theories about your favorite Disney films and rate them from 1-5 ears.
Is there some secret government conspiracy to protect the identities of the littlest Incredibles?
Is Moana actually dead?
Are the toys in Toy Story a manifestation of their owner’s personalities?
Tune in to find out more about these interesting theories and to hear a few more. Then let us know on our Facebook, Enchanted Ears Podcast, if you agree with our ratings.
Thank you for listening in and as always, have a magical week!

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.
This week in Disney News, the first trailer for Chip N’ Dale Rescue Rangers came out, and it wasn’t what we were expecting…at all.
Now you can leave cast compliments on the MyDisneyExperience app. Just search for cast compliments, and you can make someone’s day better, just like they made yours better!
Lastly, Disney announced they’re going to have neighborhoods now!? It’s called Storyliving by Disney and the first one is going to be in California.
This week we talk about everything Princess. What does it take to be a Disney princess? Who are the princesses? Who got the boot? (Yes, there are people who were princesses who aren't anymore. *Gasp!*)
What criteria do you need to meet to be a princess? And for goodness sakes, are Anna and Elsa princesses or not!?
Thank you for listening in and as always, have a magical week!

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney!
This week in Disney News, Disneyland Grand Californian Spa now has fitness classes. So if you're on vacation and would like to get a little workout in before you hit the parks, grab your Minnie ears for yoga or your tennis shoes for boot camp.
Fan-favorite Soarin’ Over California is coming back at DCA for a limited time during DCA's Food and Wine Festival!
At Disney World, Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire Show in front of the castle is coming soon and finishes with the characters wearing their iridescent outfits.
Disney delayed the Disney Wish’s maiden voyages. Good news for those of you who who booked one of the maiden voyages, you can rebook for a 50% discount. Man, do we regret not booking that trip!
Finally, we posted a poll what movie you're most looking forward to this year on YouTube, and Lightyear won by a landslide!
With today being Valentine's Day, we decided to play a little game of Guess the Dating Profile. Angela wrote dating profiles for 6 Disney characters while Joe tries to guess who they are. Play along and be sure to let us know on Enchanted Ears on Facebook how many you got correct!
Have a magical week!

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney!
This week in Disney News, parades are officially coming back to the Magic Kingdom! The Festival of Fantasy parade will be returning March 9th!
Across the pond in Paris, they'll have a new drone show for their 30th anniversary along with some new iridescent costumes for Mickey and Minnie that are everything!
Finally, Disney announced their next live-action movie: The Aristocats.
The MCU is ever-changing and ever-growing. With phase 1 complete, we contemplate where we see it going from here, especially after Spiderman: No Way Home.
We discuss a little bit about what we thought of the newest Spiderman movie, and then turn to what the ramifications are going forward in the MCU. Everything has been blown wide open. Without the TVA, it's possible there will be major changes to the new branch realities. Matthew Murdoch will be appearing again for sure in the Armor Wars series. Dr. Strange will face consequences of his decision to help Peter, which definitely damaged the fabric of reality. Plus, we see the possibility for stories from other universes already in Shang-Chi.
Thank you as always for tuning in.
Have a magical week!

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we talk anything and everything Disney!
In Disney News, Remi’s Ratatouille Adventure moves off of virtual cue on January 10 leaving no rides on virtual cue.
Also, Turning Red will be released exclusively on Disney+ on March 11. It’s the 3rd Pixar movie in a row, so what exactly is going on here?!
This week, we do are darnedest to lose all of you wonderful subscribers by choosing the Best Animated Disney Movie Songs. It was hard to take on the crazy task of trying to pick through the amazing catalogue of Disney songs and chose the best.
We decided based on importance to the movie, overall popularity, recognizability of the song, song content, and relatability among many other factors.
Be sure to let us know where we went awry on our Facebook EnchantedEars. And maybe let us know one thing we got right.
Have a magical week!

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we talk anything and everything Disney!
This week in Disney news, Typhoon Lagoon finally reopened on January 2 (only for Blizzard Beach to close for refurbishment).
Spiderman: No Way Home has now passed 600 million domestically and over 1 billion worldwide with no sign of slowing down.
Disneyland Paris’s Disneyland Hotel will be getting a royal makeover. It’ll now be prince and princess themed.
This week, we play guess the Marvel movie based on the terrible IMDB review. Let’s just say that people go HARD on their negative reviews, making us often question if we even watched the same movie. Also, many people get quite poetic, likening watching some of the best movies to going to the DMV or watching a “Horrible Hannah Montana Episode.” See how well you can guess along with us and laugh along the way.
We hope you’re having a very Happy New Year filled with more magic and Disney!
Have a magical week!

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney!
This week in Disney News, Spider-Man: No Way Home is making ALL the money! If you haven’t seen it yet, what are you doing!?
Speaking of fantastic movies, Encanto will be out on Disney+ on December 24!
A building permit of Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Rail in Disneyland reveals there will be three additional scenes! More Chuuby perhaps? (Crossing fingers and toes!)
And finally, select tours will be coming back to Disney World in February. YAY!
Get your boxing gloves out because this week, we bring back “You can only keep one.” In this special Buzzfeed edition, we list 4 themed options and choose which to keep and which three we’d let go.
We debate which princess, leading lady who isn’t a princess, leading man, sidekicks, villains, Disney parent, fairy, cat, and bird we would save, while allowing the souls of the others to swirl down into Hades’ pit for the rest of eternity. I may have to dive in Hercules-style to save a few though...it’s SO hard to pick just one!
We’re going to take a week off here, so we hope you have a wonderful holiday season! We’ll be back in the beginning of January with more fun Disney-related content. Have a magical holiday and Happy New Year!
