    Would You Rather Have a Disney Animatronic or a New Car?

    Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. In this week’s Disney news, Disneyland is getting all of the cool stuff again and Disney World is left with NOTHING. OK, maybe that’s a bit of an overreaction, but we really wish Disney World would just get a few of the cool meet and greets Disneyland gets. Disney collectibles can be pretty pricey.  People have sold everything from old ticket books to Walt’s signature. And for the right item, people are willing to pay . . . A LOT! But how much is too much for the right Disney collectible? Would you be willing to give up a month of eating at your favorite restaurant for a tea set? Maybe an old animatronic instead of a new car? On this week’s show we answer these questions and more as we play a game of would you rather to determine just how much we’d be willing to give up for some of the most obscure and expensive Disney collectibles out there.

    Opening Day: Animal Kingdom

    Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. Disney’s Wild Animal Kingdom was a big gamble for the Company.  A theme park focused more on live animals and conversation than Disney IP was something Disney had not really tried before. But with the growing success of Disney World as a vacation destination, the time seemed right to build a 4th park. Luckily for us, Disney’s Animal Kingdom (as it would come to be known) was placed in the hands of legendary Imagineer Joe Rohde, who traveled the globe to make sure the park was authentic as possible. But that didn’t mean it was all smooth sailing. As is common with Disney, the park went over budget, lands were cut and when it opened there weren’t many attractions for guests to enjoy. So join us this week as we take a look back at one of our favorite Disney parks, to see what it was like on opening day. Submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode.

    Looking Back at Our Disney Predictions

    Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. This week Disney announced some discounts for your next Disney World Vacation and they happen to conveniently coincide with the opening of an Epic new park. At the beginning of 2020 we made some bold predictions for the Walt Disney Company over the next decade.  It’s crazy to think that it has already been five years since that episode, but here we are. It turns out we had some pretty good predictions, including the plot to the then unannounced Moana 2, and some pretty bad predictions, that although technically could still happen in the next five years, aren’t looking good. So tune in to hear right we got right and not right (yet) and let us know your predictions for the rest of the decade. Submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode.
