| 0:18.9 | Thank you so much for checking out this episode of Cruise Radio. A review of Carnival Magic this week, and Richard Sims is back with Cruise News. He's hanging in the wings. We'll punch him up in just a couple of moments. Cruise Radio News, I've got to tell you, there's been a ton of news happening over the past couple of weeks.
