Universal Orlando Podcast By Orlando Informer

This week, we answer your questions on:  which intellectual property we'd like to see a ride based on and getting a refund for your theme-park tickets during the COVID-19 closure.

We break down the attraction(s), shops, food, and the theming of the only land in Islands of Adventure to not be based on an intellectual property.

This week, we answer your questions on: whether Universal will lower hotel rates because of COVID-19, if there might be any updates to the strategies to get on Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure, and which menu at which in-park restaurant we'd change (and with what!).

We break down the attractions, shops, food, and our favorite experiences in Islands of Adventure's Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

This week, we answer your questions on: Universal partner hotel benefits, what songs we want to see on Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit, and how necessary it is to speak English to enjoy Universal Orlando's experiences.

We break down the attractions, shops, food, and hidden gems at Islands of Adventure's Skull Island and Jurassic Park.

Five films, lots of action scenes, and even more intrigue and plot twists – the "Jason Bourne" series has lots of material rife for utilization by The Bourne Stuntacular, the imminent stunt show at Universal Orlando Resort. We do a deep dive on it all (including some behind-the-scenes shenanigans!) so you don't have to.

In this quick, news-centric podcast, we quickly get into how long Universal Orlando and Walt Disney World Resorts will be closed down and what we know regarding the cancellation or rebooking of guests' planned visits during this time.

We break down the attractions, shops, food, and hidden gems at Islands of Adventure's Toon Lagoon.

This week, we answer your questions on:  the Mardi Gras Tasting Lanyard and how do you write for Orlando Informer (or theme-park blogs, generally)?

We break down the attractions, shops, and food at Islands of Adventure's Marvel Super Hero Island.

We break down the concerts, parade, premium add-ons, and all the food and drinks at what is quickly becoming one of Universal's biggest annual events.

This week, we answer your questions on:  does Universal Orlando have any can't-miss nighttime shows or parades, upgrading your tickets to an annual pass, and getting on Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance (hey – that's not Universal!). Plus, we get an epic trip report (and a hot tip) from one of our listeners.

We have everything you need to know about the first-ever Running Universal event at Universal Orlando Resort, and then we discuss the first confirmed land of Epic Universe, Super Nintendo World.

The first month of the year has brought the first major Super Nintendo World press conference, in which we received the very first details on the land's various interactive elements, from collecting virtual coins to unlocking Boss Battles.

This week, we answer your questions on:  the best time of day to ride Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, what benefits a seasonal pass will net you (or not), and whether Captain Marvel is in Marvel Super Hero Island (or not). 

We're running down all the attraction and hotel openings and annual events that will grace Universal Orlando Resort in 2020.
