September 22, 2019September 21, 2019Adam DiMuzio

Central Florida has more to offer than just theme parks and beaches. Sure, those are the attractions that bring the tourists in, but the area is pretty diverse with cultural locations. Recently, we took a trip to Sarasota, FL to check out The Ringling (and the Circus Museum).

August 15, 2019August 14, 2019Adam DiMuzio

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Busch Gardens Williamsburg

August 4, 2019August 3, 2019Adam DiMuzio

Panic can set in, however, when you’ve realized you’ve been to all the parks around dozens of times. When that happens, where can you go to get a new coaster fix? For us, we traveled north to Virginia and hit up Busch Gardens Williamsburg.

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: ‘Hollywood Drive-in Golf’

July 3, 2019July 3, 2019Adam DiMuzio

The site contains two 18-hole courses, both inspired by 1950s-era drive-in movies. There’s a Horror course (“The Haunting of Ghostly Greens”) and a Scifi course (“Invaders From Planet Putt”). Individually either would be the most elaborate min golf course ever.

June 20, 2019June 19, 2019Adam DiMuzio

My 7-year old tried to play ‘Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle’ but he didn’t make it very long. Instead my 12-year old and I took on the battle alone. Could we save Hogwarts?

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: ‘Ticket to Ride’

June 12, 2019June 14, 2019Adam DiMuzio

Avengers: Endgame

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: ‘Avengers: Endgame’

May 10, 2019May 9, 2019Adam DiMuzio1

Last week we ranked the entire MCU (at the time). Then, ‘Avengers: Endgame’ came out. I think it is safe to say that everyone has seen it. Right? You have? You did #WhateverItTakes and saw it within the first few weeks?

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Ranking Every Movie in the MCU

April 28, 2019April 26, 2019Adam DiMuzio

This isn’t a post to discuss ‘Avengers: Endgame.’ Instead, we want to rank everything that came before it. Can we come up with a definitive list for ranking the MCU?

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Top 3 “To Dos” at Universal Orlando Resort

April 21, 2019April 20, 2019Adam DiMuzio

Over the last year, we’ve been to Universal Orlando Resort a lot. A whole lot. Last year we took advantage of a great Florida resident Annual Pass and subsequently… well, we wanted to get value out of it.

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Enters The VOID

April 4, 2019April 3, 2019Adam DiMuzio

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Star Wars: “Galaxy’s Edge”

March 14, 2019March 13, 2019Adam DiMuzio

Patience as we wait for the opening of Star Wars: “Galaxy’s Edge” at Walt Disney World (or Disneyland, if that’s the coast you’re on. Living in Florida, however, means we wait an extra few months).

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Enters the Spider-Verse!

March 8, 2019March 9, 2019Adam DiMuzio

I didn’t think an animated Spider-Man movie was going to be both current cultural cache and a movie that might stand the test of time. I was wrong.

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: F Is for Football

February 4, 2019February 5, 2019Adam DiMuzio

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Fun Year’s Resolutions

January 4, 2019January 3, 2019Adam DiMuzio

At the time it seemed like the kind of random thing a 10-year-old would say. The more I thought about it, however, the more I realized it was a good idea. What were fun things we could do throughout the year?

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Cirque du Soleil’s CRYSTAL

December 29, 2018December 28, 2018Adam DiMuzio

The show is full of death-defying set pieces. I couldn’t count the number of times we sat on the edge of seats, jaws wide open as we watched the show.

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Holiday Movies

December 18, 2018December 17, 2018Adam DiMuzio

December 3, 2018December 2, 2018Adam DiMuzio

November 22, 2018November 21, 2018Adam DiMuzio

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: IRONMAN and Little Debbie

November 12, 2018November 11, 2018Adam DiMuzio

I wanted to give them a chance to ask questions and, maybe, inspire them to push beyond their limits with their own stupid ideas. They then learned that my race was sponsored by Little Debbie and I brought home a bag full of samples.

November 8, 2018November 7, 2018Adam DiMuzio2

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: The World of Coca-Cola

October 16, 2018October 15, 2018Adam DiMuzio

Now… I know what you’re saying. The World of Coca-Cola isn’t a museum per se. I can’t argue with that. At least when I took them to the Guinness Book of World Records museum it had “museum” in the title. The World of Coca-Cola… not so much.

Bodaciously Awesome Family Show: Sky Zone and Ninja Warriors

October 9, 2018October 8, 2018Adam DiMuzio

The Sky Zone near us recently went through an overhaul. Not content with just a bays of trampolines and dodge ball courts—they went full on American Ninja Warrior and added obstacles, rock climbing walls, and warped walls.
