00:00It's Coop live with Big 98.
00:01One of the most magical place on Earth.
00:03We are at Walt Disney World.
00:05Remember, you can win your own vacation at Big 98 one dot com.
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.
02:52So you're going to see people from or characters from Frozen and Kanto, Coco,
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.
03:13You have to go with your family.
03:15Like you're going to be singing every single song.
03:17You got a whole new world.
03:18Remember me.
03:20There's just so many good songs to sing along.
03:22So it's definitely a fun time for the family.

03:31We're in Philadelphia.
03:32Yeah, our Eagles just won a Super Bowl and our quarterback
03:35was just at Magic Kingdom not too long ago, right?
03:38He was. That was crazy.
03:40The amount of people that showed up green everywhere.
03:43It was such a great time.
