What the hell is happening in Las Vegas?<\/p>\n

First, please watch the language.<\/p>\n

Second, we’ve got this!<\/p>\n

It’s another installment of the podcast guaranteed to satisfy your insatiable cravings for all things WTF.<\/p>\n

For starters, we’ve got some incisive (your results may vary) commentary about Area 15 and Bugsy & Meyer’s Steakhouse at Flamingo. Spoiler alert: Love them.<\/p>\n

\"Oddwood
Oddwood Lounge is at the heart of Area 15, a new mall we haven’t figured out how to describe yet, but we quite enjoyed it, anyway.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this show, we chat with Howard Barish, Managing Editor and General Manager of Gaming Today magazine<\/a>. Gaming Today has been around 45 years, so they sort of have the sports betting thing down.<\/p>\n

That’s right, it’s a sports thing. On our podcast. You know what they say: If you can’t beat ’em, let a sports guy talk about sports so we don’t have to! Barish shares his thoughts on “music, sex and sports,” but mostly that last thing.<\/p>\n

Naturally, we give our two 0.0000017 Bitcoin (yes, that’s two cents as we write this) about Bizarro Vegas. You know, the one where Cosmopolitan and Wynn and The D and others are increasing security because of a spike in boneheads visiting Las Vegas recently.<\/p>\n

\"Cosmo\"
On the bright side, irksome security measures at Cosmo only make it five percent less awesome.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Our “Listicle of the Week” features some sadness, specifically, “Nine Las Vegas Casinos That Are Still Closed.” In case you have a podcast allergy, and we wouldn’t blame you, here’s the list.<\/p>\n

The Las Vegas casinos still closed are: Cromwell, Palms, Rio, Main Street Station (Downtown), Fiesta Rancho (North Las Vegas), Texas Station (North Las Vegas), Fiesta Henderson (Henderson), Eldorado Casino (Henderson) and Eastside Cannery (Boulder Highway).<\/p>\n

Otherwise, it’s the usual rambling drivel you’ve come to know and avoid.<\/p>\n

Gird your eustachian tube and take a listen.<\/p>\n
