The Adventure Lives On - An Unofficial Universal Studios Podcast

Our first Islands of Adventure deep dive is all about Hogsmeade, Forbidden Journey, Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure(TM), Flight of the Hippogriff, and Dragon Challenge. 

This episode would have been a lot better if we had gotten our cups of coffee! In our final Universal Studios park deep dive, we cover Race Through New York Starring Jimmy Fallon, Revenge of the Mummy, Transformers the Ride, and Fast & Furious Supercharged. 

Stay tuned next week for our first deep dive of Islands of Adventure. 

This week, we deep dive into E.T. Adventure and Illumination's Minion Land, ending the episode with our speculations on the new ride that will replace Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit. 

This week we're continuing our Universal Studios deep-dives into Springfield USA, Animal Actors on Location, and the new DreamWorks land. We even unexpectedly cover a little of Universal Orlando's sustainability efforts. 

Here's our first Episode of season 2! We started this season with a deep dive into the history of Universal Studios Orlando, focusing on what are now the Harry Potter and Men in Black areas of the park. 

We finally made it to the end of season 1! In part 2 of our Grinch movies deep dive we also talked a little about the live action The Cat in the Hat, rides we'd like to see in Seuss Landing, our plans for next year and the future of The Adventure Lives On Podcast.

We spent this week in Whoville doing a deep dive into all three movie versions of How the Grinch Stole Christmas - the original 1966 cartoon, the live action with Jim Carrey, and the recent Illumination version. We go behind the scenes and cover some information you may not have heard before. 

This week, we cover Christmas celebrations at 4 Universal Studios locations - Universal Orlando, Hollywood, Tokyo, and Singapore - and the rides that have come and gone in 2025. 

Have you ever hoped for a Christmas movie filmed at Universal Studios? So have we! This week we talk all about our Christmas movie ideas and decorations in the parks. 

We are officially in the Grinchmas spirit! In this episode, we cover Christmas in the Universal theme parks - everything from finding Earl the Squirrel and meeting the green man himself to celebrating Christmas at Hogwarts and what we hope to see this season at Epic Universe.
