00:08Let's talk about the Magic Kingdom.

00:11I've got Alex with me right now.

00:13Obviously, when you think of Disney World, you think of all the incredible parks,

00:17but Magic Kingdom is probably the one that stands out because that incredible

00:19castle and just everything it stands for, right?

00:21It's it's literally what started it all.

00:24It was the first park here in Orlando, Florida.

00:27Magic Kingdom is just perfect for the entire family.

00:30And I'm talking mom, dad, kids, aunts, grandparents.

00:33Everyone just has a great time in Magic Kingdom.

00:36It's true you say that because I feel like everybody has their favorite park.

00:39I think my oldest son would say Hollywood Studios.

00:41I'm a fan of Epcot myself, but everyone together loves Magic Kingdom

00:46and looks forward to it every time.

00:48Because you know how we say, like this Walt Disney World is an escape

00:51and you become a kid.

00:52But I feel like out of all of the parks, this is the one where even

00:56if you're the grumpiest person, you can't be.

00:58You will see the castle and be like, oh, I'm a little kid again.

01:02It is. I got to tell you this.

01:03If you've never been to Disney World before, maybe you have and you haven't got

01:06to Magic Kingdom when it first opens.

01:08You do have to experience that at least once in your life

01:10because there's a really fantastic show.

01:12I'm going to say I'm going to say show that you guys put on to open

01:15Magic Kingdom every morning.

01:16Yes. Every morning we have Mickey Mouse, Minnie.

01:19They do this cool choreography fireworks early in the morning to kick it off.

01:24But throughout the whole day, you're going to be finding like

01:25different magical moments.

01:27We have the Festival of Fantasy Parade during the day.

01:30At night, we have Happily Ever After.

01:32There's just magic in every corner.

01:34And if your thing is shows, we got those attractions.

01:38We got those, especially Tron Light Cycle.

01:41I don't know if you've gone on it already.

01:43So listen, I got to get the guts up to do it, Alex.

01:47Last year, so my wife and my oldest son went on it.

01:50Yeah, I loved it.

01:51OK, I watched it go around and I was like, I don't know if I can do it this time,

01:54but they're trying to talk me into it this time.

01:56Do I do it? Yes or no?

01:57I say yes. You have to at least do it once.

02:00And listen, if that's not your type of attraction, I know it goes really fast.

02:04It's around 60 miles per hour. Yeah.

02:06Straight off the bat.

02:07But if that's not your thing, there's other attractions

02:09that will, like, you know, give you that same adrenaline and excitement

02:12like Tiana's Bayou Adventure. Yes.

02:14So you go through the bayou, you're getting ready for Mardi Gras,

02:17beignets, music. It's just a fun ride.

02:20And then, of course, you just get soaked wet.

02:23It's fun. It's a fun, fun ride.

02:24And that's new as of this past summer, right? Correct.

02:27OK, let's talk about something else that's new.

02:29Starlight. Can you talk to me about Starlight?

02:31So Starlight will be premiering this summer.

02:33So keep an eye out for Walt Disney World dot com to see when specifically

02:37it'll be live.

02:38But it's basically a new nighttime parade is the first one

02:41we're bringing back since the Main Street Electrical Parade.

02:45And in this occasion, we have the Blue Fairy who's going to be helping us bring

02:49all of the pixie magic and just making dreams come true.

02:57some of your favorite princesses.

02:59It's just an amazing parade at night.

03:01It all lights up. It's just going to blow your mind.

03:03One of the things that you've been used to,

03:05if you've been to Magic Kingdom, is the jamboree with the bears.

03:07But it's been updated since then, right?

03:09It's kind of a new ride.

03:10New costumes and a new track list.
