What makes magic feel good… or evil? From glowing wands and sparkling light to green smoke and shadowy curses, we’ve been taught from childhood to recognize the difference instantly. But where did those ideas come from and what do they actually say about us? In this episode of Spirits Uncorked, Elizabeth and Erica dive into the world of good vs. evil magic through the lens of Disney, folklore, and cultural storytelling. From Ursula and Maleficent to Glinda and Elsa, they explore how magic is portrayed visually, emotionally, and psychologically. Why is “good” magic always soft, nurturing, and limited? Why are powerful women so often cast as villains? What were we really being taught as kids? Pour a glass, light or dark, and join us for a fun, thought-provoking conversation that blends nostalgia, humor, and a little bit of existential questioning.
