Universal Orlando Resort sure knows how to make a splash.

Hello and welcome to Addict of the Mouse.

Today is Wednesday, January 31st, you're listening to Episode No. 559.

And today we are having our first look for the official announcement of Universal Orlando's brand new theme park launching next year, Epic Universe.

Hey everybody, Dan and Leslie here. Thanks for joining us for this epic episode.

Oh, see, our last one was iconic.

Uh-huh. We're using all the big words.

We're goobers. Okay. I am so excited to talk about epic universe. I wanted to talk about this forever.

We have been watching review, not review, rumor videos. That's the word. That's the art word I knew I was looking for.

For a while now. A while. And following the construction progress, of course, we are very, very

interested in this. One of the most exciting things about this is where Aden is going to college.

You can literally see Epic Universe from the parking lot. I am, I am unrealistically excited about this.

We have fallen so much head over heels in love with Universal Orlando after moving down here.

I mean, we liked it before we came, but oh my goodness. And this is the first time we actually

have concrete facts that we can talk about.

Yes. And I just I just think that this is such a cool part of life that we are going to get to

be a part of watching this entire brand new park come to fruition. Like, you know, I mean,

we loved Disney growing up, but the last park opened in the late 90s with Disney.

And so we have not ever experienced as park lovers, either of us, like a whole park coming to

fruition in front of our eyes.

Really even anything super new.

You know what I mean?
