I have a loaded pod reviewing three different locations including Carmella at the Planet Hollywood, their Hidden Lounge and CC Speakeasy in the Arts District. This is a great pod to get the temperature of what the center strip on the east side is like.

In this episode I run though all my favorite and maybe not so favorite local properties and why it's worth giving them a visit. I run through a lot of properties and explain what highlights are in each of these local gems. 

In this episode I had a listener ask what are some of the best break-in jobs if you're looking to work in a hotel or casino. I explain what the hierarchy of Resorts and which are the most desirable. 

Updating some of my favorite steakhouses and breaking down what makes a good steakhouse on the strip and how to pick with all the options available. Everything from Bavette's, Carversteak and Herbs & Rye. 

With my family in town I was able to hit a bunch of restaurants including Barry's Steakhouse, Mother Wolf and even squeezed in a hotel review of The Westgate Hotel & Casino. 

I did a quick trip to Los Angeles, Pasadena to be exact. And I thought it would be a good way to talk about planning somewhat spontaneous trips and how best to experience a trip with minimal planning. 

This is a big boy episode. It's longer than usual but one of the most commonly asked questions is who should you tip and how much. The cool thing about Vegas is that it also can open some doors. You do have to be strategic but if done right this can enhance your Vegas experience in a big way. 

This episode might be a little inside baseball but I breakdown the different areas of Las Vegas and which places fit best for you if you're trying to move here. I also explain good places to visit off the strip if your looking for movie theaters, bowling or even Bingo. 

In this episode I react to the shooting and touch on safety on the Strip. I also get some help from a listener who messaged me on Instagram about some fun live music bars on the strip for her upcoming trip. I list a bunch of really good venues that I may have not highlighted in the past.

In this episode I dive into the differences between a vibe focused restaurant and a Foodie spot in Vegas. Many think that these are the same but in Vegas it actually is quite different and I explain the many differences between both in terms of pricing and experience.
