PODCAST: Universal’s Mardi Gras doesn’t disappoint with parade, food and concerts (Ep. 177)

Mardi Gras: International Flavors of Carnaval is in full swing at Universal Studios. Orlando Sentinel tourism reporters Dewayne Bevil and Katie Rice discuss the celebration that runs nightly through April 16.
