Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.

This week Disney dropped some updates on the new Cars and Muppets attractions coming to Disney World.

How much would you pay to be able to skip every line at Magic Kingdom?

$200? $300? $400?

Well, Disney’s newest Lightning Lane offering (that’s like 3 now right?) the Premier Pass offers just that.  For around $400, you can get one time access to every major attraction in the Magic Kingdom.

But with 19 attractions included, is it even possible to experience them all or is the Premier Pass just another useless Disney upsell.

In order to find out, we purchased the Premier Pass during our recent trip to see what you could realistically accomplish in a day and the results surprised even us.

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.

This week we’re wrapping up our series on planning the perfect day at Disney World by heading over to Animal Kingdom.

Having just returned from a trip, we were surprised at just how doable a park Animal Kingdom is in one day.

Some may see the lack of attractions as a negative, but we view it as an opportunity to pack in as much or as little in your day as you want.

Want to fill your day with some of the best shows on property?

Or maybe you want more of a leisurely day taking in the live entertainment and animal watching?

Either way, Animal Kingdom is the perfect park to have your perfect day at Disney World.

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.

We finally have an opening date for the return of a nighttime parade to Magic Kingdom.

This week we’re talking solo Disney trips!

Joe had a recent visit to Disney World alone, and much to Angela’s dismay he had a good time.

While planning a trip to Disney World can be stressful, between dining reservations and lightning lanes, most of that planning isn’t really necessary when you travel solo.

As a solo traveler, Disney becomes so much easier to navigate and you end up with a much more relaxed vacation.

So join us this week, as Joe recaps his experience and how the lessons he learned traveling solo are going to change how he plans all of our future Disney vacations.

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.

Disney announced dates for this year’s Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party.  Plus a much needed update to Jack Skellington’s face.

If you could design a Disney resort what would it be like?

Would it be a Value or a Deluxe?

What would the theme be?

What park would you locate near?

Well on this week’s episode we’re playing Armchair Imagineer to design our perfect Disney Resort.

And unlike real Imagineers, budget is not a factor!

So join us as we build some of the best (at least we think so!) resorts Disney has to offer.

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.

This week Disney made a surprise announcement that they are building a 7th Disney Park.  We discuss how this may impact the Company going forward and if this means Josh D’Amaro just became the frontrunner for CEO.

Being at a Disney park can be overwhelming. 

There’s so many shows and attractions, it can leave even the most experienced planner with a serious case of FOMO.

But what if you got to experience your best day ever at the parks?

Would you rope drop or sleep in?

What are your must ride attractions?

Maybe you eat at your favorite restaurant?

Well on today’s show, we’re doing just that by planning our perfect day at Hollywood Studios.

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney.

This week in Disney News, Tokyo Disneyland dropped some concept art that has us questioning the future of multiple opening day attractions.

In every heroes journey there comes a point where our hero must overcome insurmountable odds to claim victory.

In the case of this podcast those insurmountable odds are Joe trying to best Angela in a game of guess the attraction.

If you listened to Episode 337 a few months ago (and let’s be honest you did because you listen to them all) you know Angela made quick work of guessing the Disney World attractions.

So this week Joe is back with a vengeance with a whole new round of attractions, this time from Disneyland.

Can Angela prevail or will Joe finally have his victory? Tune in to find out.
