Strider has been to Vegas upwards of 30 times. He has been there 31 times. Most recently for a pool party that featured his favorite DJ. It was half buzzed and totally soaked that he thought... this city that turns so many of us broke has a rich history. One can't avoid mafia talk when it comes to early Vegas. Strider takes us on a quick journey from desert meadow lands, past Fremont st. speakeasies, through the mob strip and up to the modern mega resorts.  Sources: History.com, Reviewjournal.com ‘The Mafia’s history in Las Vegas: From Bugsy Siegel to Anthony Spilotro’ by Jeff German, wikipedia.org

Vegas Baby Vegas

Strider Wilson hosts a podcast delving into history through the perspective of a mature erudite bro. He was one unit away from a history minor at U.C. San Diego, but he does’t let that stop him from examining what it would have been like to be a bro posted up on Bunker Hill or uncovering what the chillest aspect of surrealist art is. Buckle up because Strider will not only venture into humanity's shared past. He will venture within himself. Asking real questions such as, “exactly how tight are pirates,” or “what if he stayed that extra semester in school,” “would my life have been danker?” Strider firmly believes that history is tight because we all should for sure blaze our own trails… but in what direction?
