| 0:00.0 | Coming up, doing something different today, talking about that other Orlando Park. |
| 0:04.6 | It's Universal, Epic Universe, and it's finally time. |
| 0:08.5 | We cannot wait to dive into all the portals. |
| 0:11.3 | And the best portal might not be the one that got you in the door to begin with. |
| 0:16.0 | And as somebody who has historically been a universal is hard for me kind of person, I say that I was so |
| 0:23.8 | incredibly surprised. Hey y'all, it's LJ here, owner and founder of SmartMoms Plan |
| 0:29.3 | Disney and SmartMoms Travel. We are so glad you're here for another episode of the SmartMoms |

| 1:28.2 | into wanting to plan one. We'll see, but either way, it's going to be super exciting. |
| 1:32.5 | Are you all still, like, living in your epic universe moment? Have you had enough time to digest |
| 1:37.3 | and absorb it? It was so good. Oh, my gosh, it was so good. I think I said before on the podcast, I'm a really big video game nerd. |
| 1:47.1 | So I have been looking forward to Epic Universe opening for the last, I think, three or four years. |
