This episode Marty and Pete celebrate the 65th year of Wayne Newton's performing career in Las Vegas. We look at Mr. Las Vegas' remarkable journey, his life and music, and how he has influenced the production of The Las Vegas Experience.

The highlight of the episode is a very special performance of Wayne Newton's tribute to Elvis Presley, "The Letter." This song was inspired by a letter that Elvis had started writing but then discarded, providing a poignant glimpse into the struggles of the King of Rock 'n' Roll.
