Episode 3: Food for Thought

Wonderful to see you all, again, thanks for lending us your ears! This week’s episode is a little longer: we just had SO much to talk about! We start with a little “housekeeping”; clearing up some things from last week’s episode, and looking to our trip on the horizon! Next, we voice our disapproval of the FuelRod debacle. Afterwards, our discussion turns to future updates to Star Tours in Hollywood Studios, and the return of a dining event to Animal Kingdom. The second half of the episode follows our take on some of the 2019 Food and Wine Festival booths, and wraps up with a story and request to all: Cast Members are people too — honor them with a Cast Compliment!

Thank you all, again, for your continued support! It means the world! Thanks for listening, we hope you enjoy!

Episode 2: This Is Halloween

Welcome back to our podcast! Episode 2 covers a lot of ground: First when discussing our weekend, we suddenly take on the roles of “movie critics”, we continue the theme as we discuss the success (or not) of the Maleficent sequel in theaters, we discuss our excitement for the upcoming food at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and our equal excitement and fear of the upcoming Rise: Of: The: Resistance ride, we hear the silver bells a-ringing in the distance for the Candlelight processional, and wrap it all up with our review of this year’s Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party.

Thanks, again for listening! We hope you enjoy!

Episode 1: Welcome to the Mouse Ears and Wishes Podcast

We finally did it – we made our first podcast episode! Inside, we discuss a little bit of our Disney background from childhood to adulthood. We also touch on some recent Disney news, which both takes us Sky high (see what we did there?) and also finds us planning future couch potato sessions . Finally we wrap things up with Jenn answering some Disney tag questions, and Stefan having a hard time choosing his favorites.

Thank you for visiting! We hope you enjoy!

Our Brave New World ☺

Well, folks, here we are. We have reached the inevitable, we are starting a podcast. But first, we should probably take a moment to introduce ourselves to you. And to give you a little taste of the kind of zany and kooky people we are, Stefan has prepared a little poem to help do just that.

Welcome, welcome, one and all!
To Disney fans, big and small.
We hope to set ourselves apart,
For those who are young, and the young-at-heart.
So now it’s time for us to greet you,
and to give our names — pleased to meet you!

The first of us is nicknamed JENN
She’s smart and kind, and a wonderful friend.
She loves to laugh and and is quite funny,
which makes for an excellent travel buddy!

STEFAN is the other’s name,
he spends his free time playing games.
He too cracks jokes — like a lot.
Even if they aren’t that funny!
(They’re mostly not.)

We’ve visited Disney a great amount,
At least once or twice… (I’ve lost count).
Together, we make up husband and wife,
now 2 years married, together for life!

So like the things which ‘by a mouse’ did start,
we hope to make our place in your heart.
And while our Disney obsession grows,
we hope you will listen, and enjoy our show.

So thank you for joining us. We’ve got a lot of exciting things in store, and we can’t wait to share all of it with you along the way!
