On this episode of Talk Magic to Me, the hosts take a small turn from Pixar and talk about Maleficent!

JD tells us about the Lion Guard (and everyone cries), Danielle harks back to Wicked, Eric tells a funny story about Disney Sing Along Songs, and Jen defends the 1959 Aurora’s honor. All of this and more on this episode of Talk Magic to Me.

Talk Magic to Me is a Disney critical discussion podcast.  Episodes will be posted every Wednesday.
