The discussion heats up as they pop over to Las Vegas and explore Universal Horror Unleashed, a permanent horror attraction promising immersive experiences. But will it be worth taking time away from other premier Vegas attractions? Plus, they delve into the buzz around Epic Universe in Orlando, with its groundbreaking rides and themed lands that might just tip the scales in Universal's favor, including a permanent home for Universal Monsters. Tune in for discussion that promises to thrill and chill!
