  Sean McAllister: After a very busy uh Labor Day weekend.
• 1:00
  Sean McAllister: Down on the strip.
• 1:01
  Sean McAllister: Now, on holiday weekends, we don't normally go down into the middle of the action.
• 1:07
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 1:07
  Sean McAllister: Per se.
• 1:08
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 1:08
  Sean McAllister: Unless there's something that draws us down there, which is what happened this time.
• 1:12
  Sean McAllister: And it was jam-packed.
• 1:16
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, we were like texting.
• 1:18
  Dayna Roselli: Uh oh, I was texting you.
• 1:19
  Dayna Roselli: I'm gonna be like 15 minutes late.
• 1:21
  Dayna Roselli: We were headed to the Paris, and not only was it packed at Paris, it was packed just to get into the side road to get to the parking garage.
• 1:32
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 1:32
  Dayna Roselli: It was all backed up on Harmon, and then you turn on that Audrey Lane, and it was backed up getting into the garage.
• 1:37
  Dayna Roselli: And so we kind of were like, oh boy, this is gonna be busy out.
• 1:43
  Sean McAllister: It was very busy.
• 1:44
  Sean McAllister: And I said I told you, I thought it looked like I mean, it was like a ton of college-aged uh people who were here on the strip, at least uh there at Paris.
• 1:57
  Sean McAllister: I was like, oh my gosh, is this like a sorority and fraternity convention that's going on?
• 2:02
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 2:03
  Dayna Roselli: No, when I left our dinner that night, I took a little five-second video.
• 2:07
  Dayna Roselli: And if you look at the video, it is all college girls in mini dresses.
• 2:13
  Dayna Roselli: And I thought, oh, I used to look like that when I could wear that.
• 2:16
  SPEAKER_03: Very mini.
• 2:18
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, so no, you're right.
• 2:19
  Dayna Roselli: There, but and and guy friends and groups of people, but it was like to leave dinner.
• 2:23
  Dayna Roselli: What time did we leave?
• 2:24
  Dayna Roselli: Like 9:30?
• 2:25
  Dayna Roselli: Something like that.
• 2:26
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, 9:30, 10 o'clock.
• 2:27
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 2:28
  Dayna Roselli: I felt like I had to weave and bob and get I was getting hit in the shoulder.
• 2:31
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, it was slammed.
• 2:34
  Sean McAllister: It was, yes, jam-packed.
• 2:36
  Dayna Roselli: Jam-packed at the Paris.
• 2:37
  Dayna Roselli: Um, lots of people gambling, the lobby bars were full.
• 2:40
  Dayna Roselli: Everyone was getting ready to go out somewhere, whether it was to just hit the lounges or what.
• 2:46
  Dayna Roselli: But um we'll talk about um our trip to dinner that night at Cherry Rooftop in just a minute.
• 2:52
  Dayna Roselli: But yeah, we just wanted to point out it was very busy.
• 2:54
  Dayna Roselli: I'm kind of getting sick of the whole everyone fighting over Vegas is dead, Vegas is not.
• 2:58
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, listen, we've chimed in, but I'm kind of over the whole thing now because there is no answer.
• 3:03
  Dayna Roselli: Numbers are down, gambling is up.
• 3:06
  Dayna Roselli: Certain days it's jam-packed.
• 3:09
  Dayna Roselli: Maybe other times it's not.
• 3:11
  Dayna Roselli: We've only seen it busy.
• 3:12
  Dayna Roselli: I had someone, and I gotta refrain from commenting on social media because I commented under a post and someone wrote me back and was like, get out of the suburbs or something.
• 3:21
  Dayna Roselli: And I was like, first of all, I don't live in the suburbs, and I actually don't hang out in the suburbs.
• 3:27
  Dayna Roselli: How many times do I complain when someone's like, meet me at blah, blah, blah in Summerland?
• 3:31
  Sean McAllister: Oh, you always do.
• 3:32
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, I'm not hanging out in Summerland.
• 3:34
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, I do go to the Boca Park area and stuff like that to work out, etc.
• 3:39
  Dayna Roselli: But anyway, yeah, I don't know.
• 3:40
  Dayna Roselli: Everyone like gets nasty if you try and chime in.
• 3:43
  Dayna Roselli: I was basically saying there was a um, I think it was Perez Hilton that posted like an article about how, you know, there's a dip in tourism.
• 3:50
  Dayna Roselli: News Nation put it up, blah, blah, blah, Las Vegas.
• 3:52
  Dayna Roselli: And I said, listen, there's a dip across the board.
• 3:54
  Dayna Roselli: And I mentioned that, you know, we went to Napa in July.
• 3:56
  Dayna Roselli: They said they're experiencing the same thing.
• 3:58
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 3:58
  Dayna Roselli: Las Vegas is a headline because it's a tourist town.
• 4:01
  Dayna Roselli: And then someone was like, get out of the suburbs and get out of the casinos.
• 4:05
  Dayna Roselli: It is like completely dead, like off the strip.
• 4:09
  Dayna Roselli: And I think what they were trying to say was, you know, they might work at a local restaurant or a local retail shop that's off the strip and it's not busy there.
• 4:18
  Dayna Roselli: And I'm like, well, that's what I was saying is a lot of people are choosing not to travel, choosing to stay close to home, cook at home, things like that.
• 4:26
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 4:27
  Dayna Roselli: Which is, you know, bringing numbers down.
• 4:29
  Dayna Roselli: But, you know, something like Labor Day weekend, hey, let's go.
• 4:32
  Dayna Roselli: We're all in.
• 4:33
  Dayna Roselli: We're gonna, you know, we've been holding back, saving up our money.
• 4:36
  Dayna Roselli: Now we're ready to go spend it.
• 4:38
  Dayna Roselli: So anyway, yeah, someone yelled at me, get out of the suburbs.
• 4:41
  Dayna Roselli: And I was like, all right, I got defensive.
• 4:43
  Sean McAllister: Well, and I do think that um as we head into fall, it'll be a more true representation of where we really stand with things because summer is historically always a slow time in Las Vegas.
• 4:58
  Sean McAllister: Once I mean sports is kicking back up.
• 5:01
  Sean McAllister: The NFL uh this week is gonna start their regular season games.
• 5:06
  Sean McAllister: That always brings people into town, whether they're watching a game at Allegiant Stadium or they're just coming to watch at uh one of the numerous sports books here in town.
• 5:19
  Sean McAllister: People always come here to watch sports.
• 5:22
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 5:23
  Sean McAllister: So I think it's going to be uh a much more true representation of where we stand in the in the next few weeks and months.
• 5:32
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 5:33
  Dayna Roselli: I I was at the pool the other day with a couple that they have their Raiders season tickets and they're like, oh, we're trying to find thinking about like new places.
• 5:40
  Dayna Roselli: We always go eat somewhere before the game.
• 5:44
  Dayna Roselli: And um anyway, I don't know, the place they usually go close or something like that, and they're trying to find a new, but they like they were totally looking forward to football season because it's a part of their you know what they do.
• 5:55
  Dayna Roselli: Um I had a friend write me said they're they're flying in from uh New York City to see Zach Brown in December at the sphere.
• 6:02
  Dayna Roselli: Great, and it'll be their first trip to Vegas ever.
• 6:04
  Dayna Roselli: So I'm making them an itinerary, but people are still you know coming.
• 6:08
  Dayna Roselli: It just depends.
• 6:09
  Sean McAllister: It does.
• 6:10
  Dayna Roselli: And so, yeah.
• 6:11
  Dayna Roselli: All right, let's talk Wizard of Oz.
• 6:12
  Dayna Roselli: Um, in just a second, first we wanted to mention about Dre's closing because that's a big headline this week.
• 6:17
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, that's really interesting.
• 6:19
  Sean McAllister: So uh Dre's has been a fixture at the Cromwell, and before that, Barbary Coast, uh which is going back a little bit, but uh Dre's down in the basement has been there for a long time.
• 6:33
  Sean McAllister: When it changed over to the Cromwell, they added Dre's Beach Club up on the roof, you know, the pool club.
• 6:40
  Sean McAllister: Uh well the pool club is going away.
• 6:44
  Sean McAllister: That's the pool's still gonna be there, but it's not going to be a Dre's property.
• 6:49
  Sean McAllister: Dre's has taken their operations back underground to the original basement.
• 6:56
  Dayna Roselli: It's called Dre's After Hours.
• 6:58
  Sean McAllister: They're focusing on that.
• 6:59
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 7:00
  Dayna Roselli: I guess it's been there.
• 7:01
  Dayna Roselli: It's still operating.
• 7:03
  Sean McAllister: Still operating, yeah.
• 7:04
  Dayna Roselli: I've been there a couple times.
• 7:05
  Dayna Roselli: I haven't been in a long time.
• 7:07
  Sean McAllister: I I uh have very hazy recollections of the times that I was over there down in the basement at Dre's.
• 7:18
  Dayna Roselli: Well, because I was like, what time is the Dre?
• 7:20
  Dayna Roselli: First of all, let's look at the operating hours.
• 7:22
  Dayna Roselli: Hold on.
• 7:23
  Sean McAllister: Of Dre's after hours?
• 7:24
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, 2 a.m.
• 7:25
  Dayna Roselli: to 6 a.m.
• 7:26
  Dayna Roselli: But that's like viva Las Vegas, man.
• 7:28
  Dayna Roselli: See, I love that.
• 7:29
  Dayna Roselli: That's cool.
• 7:30
  Dayna Roselli: It's something different.
• 7:31
  Sean McAllister: It is.
• 7:33
  Dayna Roselli: Um, okay, well, anyway, so yeah, so Dre's Beach Club on top there.
• 7:37
  Dayna Roselli: It's been open almost, what, 10 years?
• 7:39
  Dayna Roselli: I think it was I read 10 years, something like that.
• 7:41
  Dayna Roselli: But um, you know, it's a very particular place, kind, you know, kind of club that probably doesn't fit the genre of Cromwell turning into Vanderpump Boutique Hotel.
• 7:54
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 7:55
  Dayna Roselli: And people had a feeling that it might not be a good fit there and that maybe it would go away.
• 8:00
  Dayna Roselli: And it does sound like um what they're the pool will still stay, like you said, and it's gonna become more of a luxury experience.
• 8:06
  Dayna Roselli: And they're gonna it's gonna be a place where you can have events and private parties and stuff like that too.
• 8:11
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, which it kind of makes sense, especially uh as that property becomes, like you said, of the Vanderpump hotel.
• 8:19
  Sean McAllister: Uh, I see a lot of like bachelorette events happening up there, a lot of food events, food and wine events happening up there.
• 8:30
  Sean McAllister: Um that'll be nice up there, actually.
• 8:32
  Sean McAllister: I mean, that'll be gorgeous.
• 8:33
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it is a nice, it's a nice space.
• 8:35
  Sean McAllister: It's a beautiful space up there.
• 8:37
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, didn't you do a New Year's Eve up there once when you were working?
• 8:40
  Dayna Roselli: Several New Year's Eves, yeah.
• 8:41
  Sean McAllister: Up on the rooftop.
• 8:42
  Sean McAllister: The view's good, right?
• 8:43
  Sean McAllister: Shunning down, yeah.
• 8:45
  Sean McAllister: It's beautiful.
• 8:46
  Dayna Roselli: Anytime I've ever been there, I've been shoulder to shoulder and I can't see past people.
• 8:50
  Dayna Roselli: It's always packed.
• 8:52
  Dayna Roselli: And you got to get in that elevator and go up, and oh my gosh.
• 8:55
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it's always busy.
• 8:57
  Dayna Roselli: So anyway, they are closing.
• 9:00
  Dayna Roselli: I think we saw one content creator say it's they're like laying off and closing in the nightclub business isn't good, but I don't know that that's the case.
• 9:08
  Dayna Roselli: I think it's not a fit for Miss Lisa Vanderpump.
• 9:11
  Sean McAllister: Well, and it's part of yeah, just r the reimagination of that entire property.
• 9:18
  Dayna Roselli: Exactly.
• 9:19
  Sean McAllister: And I, you know, like you said, I think we kind of uh assumed when they announced the the Vanderpump thing that something was going to change.
• 9:28
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 9:29
  Sean McAllister: With the space up on the roof there.
• 9:31
  Dayna Roselli: So I think it's open for a couple more months still.
• 9:33
  Dayna Roselli: So if you want to get to Dre's and you haven't been yet, now's the time.
• 9:36
  Sean McAllister: It is.
• 9:36
  Sean McAllister: Now is a great time.
• 9:38
  Dayna Roselli: Well, Sean, what'd you think of The Wizard of Oz?
• 9:41
  Dayna Roselli: Finally, we can talk about it.
• 9:43
  Sean McAllister: What a uh spectacle, right?
• 9:47
  Sean McAllister: It really is that it was an experience like I have not had before.
• 9:54
  Sean McAllister: The 40 effects, the I mean the way that that movie just it feels like you're in the middle of it.
• 10:03
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it was it was really cool.
• 10:06
  Dayna Roselli: We enjoyed it.
• 10:07
  Dayna Roselli: Um everyone has their own take.
• 10:10
  Dayna Roselli: Um, so a couple of the takeaways.
• 10:12
  Dayna Roselli: The film is shorter, yes.
• 10:14
  Dayna Roselli: Um did we miss the parts that were taken out though?
• 10:17
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know because I had to ask you, like, wait, what parts were missing?
• 10:21
  Dayna Roselli: Now, I am not a sit there and watch Wizard of Oz annually every single year, and it's part of mine, and I know it like the back of my hand, um, which I'll get to in a minute as well, because that is a part of why I was so moved when I did watch it.
• 10:36
  Dayna Roselli: But um the one thing though, somebody did say was there were a bunch of songs taken out, and the one with the lion and the courage.
• 10:44
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, when I, you know, the lion I were the king of the four.
• 10:49
  Sean McAllister: That's the best part.
• 10:49
  Dayna Roselli: My friend used to do that in senior study hall.
• 10:51
  Dayna Roselli: He used to stand on the table.
• 10:53
  Dayna Roselli: Anyway.
• 10:54
  Sean McAllister: So that's cut.
• 10:56
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, that's cut, and that's true.
• 10:57
  Dayna Roselli: That is like, I guess that that was a big moment that was cut.
• 11:01
  Dayna Roselli: There were a lot of little moments cut.
• 11:04
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, there were.
• 11:04
  Sean McAllister: There was, um, I think even as Dorothy is starting to go down the yellow brick road, like in the original movie, there was a lot of interaction with the munchkins.
• 11:16
  Sean McAllister: You know, like follow the yellow brick road.
• 11:18
  Sean McAllister: Oh, yeah.
• 11:19
  Sean McAllister: Follow the yellow brick road, follow the yellow brick road.
• 11:22
  Sean McAllister: You know, and I feel like Wow, you're good at that.
• 11:24
  Dayna Roselli: You should go in and add in 30 seconds to the movie.
• 11:28
  Sean McAllister: I think they they cut out some of the follow the yellow brick roads.
• 11:32
  Dayna Roselli: Yes, they did.
• 11:33
  Sean McAllister: And that was shorter, and it kind of got right to the song.
• 11:38
  Dayna Roselli: Yep.
• 11:38
  Sean McAllister: And Dorothy trotting out of town on the yellow brick road.
• 11:41
  Dayna Roselli: Yes.
• 11:42
  Dayna Roselli: I was watching the rundown of different things.
• 11:44
  Dayna Roselli: Uh a Wizard of Oz expert on TikTok went through everything.
• 11:47
  Dayna Roselli: And I the beginning, and I did notice the beginning was a little bit shorter.
• 11:51
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, there's a bigger piece when the whole Toto and the what's her name?
• 11:55
  Dayna Roselli: The lady on the bike, the witch.
• 11:57
  Sean McAllister: Anyway, uh Elvira Gulch.
• 11:59
  Dayna Roselli: Obviously, we are not Wizard of Oz experts, but here's what I know.
• 12:03
  Dayna Roselli: I enjoyed it regardless.
• 12:05
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know that it was like I left going, I really missed that part or this part.
• 12:10
  Dayna Roselli: Um, but if you are a Wizard of Oz fan expert, maybe it's important to you to have it in.
• 12:17
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and it was 75 minutes and it felt perfect the perfect amount.
• 12:22
  Sean McAllister: It really did.
• 12:23
  Sean McAllister: And uh it it I think with the the effects that they have in there and the vivid colors, that's what I kept hearing people comment about afterward.
• 12:32
  Sean McAllister: They were like, oh my gosh, the everything was just so bright and vivid.
• 12:39
  Sean McAllister: And I mean, it takes it's you experience the movie in an entirely new way, and it is an experience.
• 12:47
  Sean McAllister: Keep that in mind that it's almost uh something you would go and uh uh take part in at an amusement or a park.
• 12:57
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, like a Universal Studios or uh Yeah, so it's not like you're sitting down in a movie theater to watch the movie, like it is an interactive uh experience.
• 13:08
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 13:09
  Dayna Roselli: I mean it's quite uh like it's astonishing.
• 13:13
  Dayna Roselli: Like there were gas and cheers.
• 13:16
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, it's you are going to love the experience.
• 13:19
  Dayna Roselli: You're gonna get a tornado with wind and debris, you're gonna get a flying monkey to probably pass in front of you.
• 13:26
  Dayna Roselli: Apples are gonna fall from the sky, it's gonna snow.
• 13:30
  Dayna Roselli: We always say this.
• 13:31
  Dayna Roselli: We don't want to give out too, too much information.
• 13:34
  Dayna Roselli: And I know you've seen it probably on social media, but if you do want to get a ticket, you want to be a little bit surprised.
• 13:40
  Dayna Roselli: I know so many people that are flying in and have tickets.
• 13:43
  Dayna Roselli: We sat in section 200, we were close, but I think personally any seat in there would be great because they section it's really just like the middle sections that are open.
• 13:53
  Dayna Roselli: And people were saying online that they love 300, they love 400.
• 13:57
  Dayna Roselli: So really, I mean, we had to look up to see things to see the wizard's face.
• 14:03
  Sean McAllister: Like, I had to really look up to see that.
• 14:08
  Sean McAllister: So I do think like the three and four hundreds level seats will give you more of a panoramic view of what's going on, where like 200, you're down a little closer to the screen and you do have to look up up almost in back of you a little bit to see everything that's going on.
• 14:27
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 14:27
  Dayna Roselli: And you will see a lot of hype online with people saying tickets are so expensive, it's ridiculous, it's you know, price gouging, 299.
• 14:35
  Dayna Roselli: Don't always believe what you read.
• 14:37
  Dayna Roselli: I went on to look for tickets for my birthday weekend to bring my mom because she's never been to the sphere.
• 14:43
  Dayna Roselli: And I there's plenty of tickets for$114 in section, I think it was four, but then people online were also who had actually been to the film saying, I sat in 400, I loved it.
• 14:53
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 14:54
  Dayna Roselli: You could see a big one.
• 14:54
  Dayna Roselli: So I mean, it's not like it's a bad seat, but there are plenty of tickets in the hundreds and low hundreds.
• 15:00
  Dayna Roselli: I think I saw one day there was a 109.
• 15:02
  Dayna Roselli: So just go around and browse for yourself.
• 15:05
  Dayna Roselli: Don't always believe what people say about ticket prices and all that.
• 15:08
  Dayna Roselli: You gotta go look for yourself.
• 15:09
  Sean McAllister: You do.
• 15:10
  Sean McAllister: And I think tickets start at 104.
• 15:13
  Sean McAllister: Is the the starting, and I believe like the average price is around 120.
• 15:18
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 15:18
  Dayna Roselli: So I saw a lot of 139s, yes, yeah, things like that.
• 15:23
  Sean McAllister: But yeah, don't think that uh because you're not down in the 200s, that you're gonna get a bad seat.
• 15:29
  Sean McAllister: I mean if you haven't been in Sphere yet, like you said, Dana, there is not a bad seat in there.
• 15:35
  Sean McAllister: And if you're going to see something like Wizard of Oz, where you don't have to be up close to a person performing down on the stage, then literally any anywhere in there is amazing.
• 15:48
  Dayna Roselli: You're experiencing the tornado, the apples are still falling, the monkeys are still flying by.
• 15:53
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, all of it.
• 15:54
  Sean McAllister: You feel the heat from the fire, it's the whole thing.
• 15:57
  Dayna Roselli: Um, I found it really emotional.
• 15:59
  Dayna Roselli: I'm just gonna mention that.
• 16:00
  Dayna Roselli: If you haven't sat, like I said, if you haven't sat down and watched Wizard of Oz, like beginning to end as an adult, you might find some really charming parts that will trigger some emotion.
• 16:11
  Dayna Roselli: I had tears in my eyes at one point because it was the sweetest thing, and there were all these little life lessons.
• 16:15
  Dayna Roselli: I thought it was really cute.
• 16:16
  Dayna Roselli: Um, celebrities that were there.
• 16:19
  Dayna Roselli: Um Chris Jenner was there.

  Dayna Roselli: It is out there, I know.
• 16:36
  Dayna Roselli: I'm not saying anything that anybody hasn't been talking about.
• 16:38
  Dayna Roselli: She looked good.
• 16:39
  Dayna Roselli: She looks amazing.
• 16:40
  Dayna Roselli: Um, who else was there?
• 16:42
  Dayna Roselli: Rosanna Arquette.
• 16:43
  Sean McAllister: Rosanna Arquette.
• 16:44
  Sean McAllister: Yep.
• 16:45
  Sean McAllister: Uh Holly Madison.
• 16:47
  Sean McAllister: Holly Madison, Tia Carrera.
• 16:49
  Sean McAllister: Uh the girl from Wicked.
• 16:51
  Dayna Roselli: She was people.
• 16:53
  Dayna Roselli: I I haven't seen Wicked.
• 16:54
  Dayna Roselli: I forget her name.
• 16:55
  Dayna Roselli: But anyway, there were a couple actresses there from Wicked.
• 16:58
  Dayna Roselli: Um, oh, Brian May of Queen was there.
• 17:01
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 17:01
  Dayna Roselli: That was cool.
• 17:02
  Dayna Roselli: There were lots of folks there.
• 17:04
  Dayna Roselli: And it was an interesting crowd because you realize like it really is the taste of what people like.
• 17:08
  Dayna Roselli: Edie Falco was there from Sopranos.
• 17:11
  Dayna Roselli: So it was a good crowd.
• 17:12
  Dayna Roselli: But the big highlight was Judy Garland's daughter, Lorna Luft.
• 17:16
  Dayna Roselli: She was there at the premiere and she was kind enough to do interviews.
• 17:20
  Dayna Roselli: Um, for a while, she really wanted to speak about this.
• 17:23
  Dayna Roselli: But can you imagine seeing your late mother in this iconic film on a screen this big?
• 17:29
  Dayna Roselli: How emotional that must have been for her.
• 17:32
  Sean McAllister: And to see like the image of her mom so uh vividly and clearly up on that screen, like way larger than life.
• 17:45
  Dayna Roselli: Uh-huh.
• 17:45
  Sean McAllister: I mean, just fantastic.
• 17:48
  Sean McAllister: And uh, we did talk with Lorna, and she told us how extremely moved she is by this experience, and that her mother would have approved of all the new technology being used on this project.
• 18:03
  SPEAKER_00: My mother never wanted cameras in her house.
• 18:07
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 18:08
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, even home movies, because that was work.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_00: So this movie is our home movie.
• 18:15
  SPEAKER_00: So I am so honored and I'm so grateful that this fear was in choosing this film.
• 18:33
  SPEAKER_00: I'm excited.
• 18:35
  SPEAKER_00: I'm I it's a bit of a woman.
• 18:44
  Sean McAllister: Obviously, she embraced technology in filmmaking if she was a part of the original.
• 18:49
  Sean McAllister: So do you think she would also embrace the technology being used on this reimagination?
• 18:54
  SPEAKER_00: Absolutely.
• 18:56
  SPEAKER_00: I mean to move forward.
• 18:59
  SPEAKER_00: So this is this is the same film.
• 19:02
  SPEAKER_00: Okay?
• 19:03
  SPEAKER_00: It's the same film.
• 19:04
  SPEAKER_00: It's just it's the technology that has taken the movie and and and you take the really honestly what they done.
• 19:16
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, honestly, they took a movie that was this big.
• 19:20
  SPEAKER_00: And they have blown it up in the people who get the experience of being in the monk.
• 19:32
  SPEAKER_00: And Vegas holds a special place for your family too, right?
• 19:36
  SPEAKER_00: It does.
• 19:37
  SPEAKER_00: I love Las Vegas, and I have um I've worked here a lot.
• 19:42
  SPEAKER_00: And, you know, my mother loved working here.
• 19:45
  SPEAKER_00: And so Las Vegas has a special meaning to my family.
• 19:51
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm so grateful that this movie is here in Vegas.
• 19:58
  Sean McAllister: Well, it was great to have Lorna back here in Las Vegas.
• 20:01
  Sean McAllister: She mentioned that she's performed and worked here for years, as did her mom.
• 20:07
  Sean McAllister: Um, and something really cool, though uh one of the original pairs of the Ruby slippers were on display in the atrium there uh at Sphere.
• 20:19
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, they were from the Debbie Reynolds collection.
• 20:21
  Sean McAllister: Debbie's son, Todd Fisher, lives here in Las Vegas, and uh he made possible uh for the slippers to be there.
• 20:31
  Dayna Roselli: Great, yeah, and that's for the premiere.
• 20:33
  Dayna Roselli: Premier night, right.
• 20:34
  Dayna Roselli: Um that was really cool.
• 20:36
  Dayna Roselli: I saw you got some video of that because I didn't see it up close, but there was a lot going on in the atrium, and there will be.
• 20:42
  Dayna Roselli: Um like the Ruby slippers probably won't be there anymore.
• 20:46
  Dayna Roselli: I think that was just premiere night.
• 20:49
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, but there's all sorts of I mean, the the whole atrium when you walk into the sphere, and that's why when you said this is an experience, there's a lot going on.
• 20:57
  Sean McAllister: The wizard and the everything, it's it's an experience, and it kind of changed over from the time when you walk in.
• 21:05
  Sean McAllister: It's like an after show out in the atrium once the the movie is done.
• 21:10
  Sean McAllister: So your experience doesn't end when the movie is over.
• 21:14
  Dayna Roselli: Well, and I think that's what a lot of people are saying.
• 21:16
  Dayna Roselli: Well, why did they cut the movie?
• 21:18
  Dayna Roselli: And they're like, well, to fit in more show times.
• 21:20
  Dayna Roselli: And other people are like, that's greedy.
• 21:21
  Dayna Roselli: Well, it's not, it's not, it's they want to give more chances for people to see this film, and it isn't just the film, right?
• 21:29
  Dayna Roselli: It's before and after, and they need to allot that time for you to have an experience.
• 21:34
  Dayna Roselli: So um, we loved it.
• 21:35
  Dayna Roselli: I thought it was great.
• 21:36
  Dayna Roselli: And you know, if if you are like, it has to be exactly like then don't go.
• 21:40
  Dayna Roselli: But you know what?
• 21:41
  Dayna Roselli: For us, for those of us who have gone and probably will return, it is quite an experience.
• 21:46
  Sean McAllister: Yes.
• 21:47
  Sean McAllister: And uh just in terms of the uh the use of AI to uh bring the film to life on such a huge screen, uh, like you see at Sphere, yes.
• 22:00
  Sean McAllister: There are times when you can tell that AI was used, but from my point of view, because it is an experience, almost like an attraction experience, like we talked about, it didn't bother me.
• 22:14
  Sean McAllister: If it was like a theatrical release that was gonna be in every movie theater across the country, d I would probably have feelings about it.
• 22:23
  Sean McAllister: But I thought that it was a brilliant use of technology to make this experience happen at the sphere.
• 22:30
  Dayna Roselli: Well, they're not hiding it.
• 22:31
  Sean McAllister: No, not at all.
• 22:32
  Dayna Roselli: You go in knowing it, right?
• 22:33
  Sean McAllister: Exactly.
• 22:34
  Dayna Roselli: So let's talk about that.
• 22:35
  Dayna Roselli: There's been a back and forth about artificial intelligence, you know, to help bring this classic film to life.
• 22:40
  Dayna Roselli: Well, we did ask uh two people on the yellow carpet about this, two important people.
• 22:46
  Dayna Roselli: One, James Dolan, the executive chairman and CEO of Sphere Entertainment, and also Carolyn Blackwood, the head of Sphere Studios.
• 22:55
  Dayna Roselli: We talked to them about the use of this technology and, you know, if this was always in the plan.
• 23:02
  SPEAKER_03: You know, I think it's going to change some things.
• 23:05
  SPEAKER_03: I don't think anything is ever going to change the human performance.
• 23:08
  SPEAKER_03: And maybe a good example of this is Judy Garland in this movie.
• 23:12
  SPEAKER_03: Because Judy Garland in this movie, her performance is unbelievable.
• 23:17
  SPEAKER_03: And the technology just enhanced it and brought it out of the that old film.
• 23:23
  SPEAKER_03: And you'll see you're gonna fall in love with Dorothy and Judy Garland tonight, I guarantee you.
• 23:28
  SPEAKER_03: Where does this rank in the capabilities of what you can do?
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, this is right at the edge now.
• 23:34
  SPEAKER_03: Right.
• 23:34
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, we we there's there's the one we do after this will be completely different with a completely different feel, etc.
• 23:41
  SPEAKER_03: But the uh this you know, every time we do something, it it goes further and further, and this one is definitely the furthest right now.
• 23:50
  SPEAKER_03: Um I'd actually think it's gonna be quite a while before anybody surpasses this.
• 23:54
  SPEAKER_01: We have to continue to think about ways to push the technology all the time.
• 24:01
  SPEAKER_01: And update things, but before the effects are today, maybe they're gonna see some new ones in those six months from now.
• 24:06
  SPEAKER_01: So for us, it's about the sort of ability to continue to sort of ideate and iterate on this incredible, incredible production.
• 24:16
  SPEAKER_01: Everything from you to the back from everything.
• 24:18
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, you guys are always doing the idea to do something different along the way.
• 24:22
  SPEAKER_01: 100%, that's correct.
• 24:24
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, keeping things diverse and different, that's what keeps us interesting, right?
• 24:28
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, we're always we don't we need to please, but we also always want to like bring wonder to the world.
• 24:33
  Sean McAllister: So I think that's kind of exciting to hear that the 4D effects that take place throughout the film might change over time.
• 24:42
  Dayna Roselli: Right, exactly.
• 24:43
  Dayna Roselli: And we were there I th um, you know, opening night, and the people behind us said they saw the family and friends night, and it they'd even made some little tweaks from day to day.
• 24:52
  Dayna Roselli: So I'm sure they're gonna take feedback too.
• 24:55
  Dayna Roselli: So nothing wrong with feedback and you know, and making changes as people.
• 24:59
  Dayna Roselli: That's just like anything, even when a hotel opens.
• 25:02
  Sean McAllister: That's what happens with every theatrical.
• 25:04
  Sean McAllister: I mean, if some if a show opens on Broadway, if you see it on opening night, it's gonna be different if you go back in a month or two.
• 25:11
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 25:11
  Sean McAllister: That's just how theater and production works.
• 25:15
  Dayna Roselli: It's good.
• 25:16
  Dayna Roselli: I love I love what they're doing over there.
• 25:18
  Dayna Roselli: I think this is I think this is cool.
• 25:20
  Dayna Roselli: Um, okay, let's go back to why we were at Paris on Saturday night of Labor Day weekend.
• 25:25
  Dayna Roselli: Uh, we went to Sherry Rooftop.
• 25:27
  Dayna Roselli: It's an outdoor restaurant, um, a couple levels up there in the Paris, so you get a view of the fountains across the street and the strip.
• 25:34
  Sean McAllister: You're literally at the right under the Eiffel Tower.
• 25:37
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, literally, you're right.
• 25:40
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and uh we went there because we haven't been yet, and also because they're doing this new is it called Shaken and Seared special.
• 25:51
  Sean McAllister: And Sean's ears perked up because the shaken is in reference to martinis, yeah, shaken and seared and the seared is because they pair the martini with a steak.
• 26:02
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 26:03
  Sean McAllister: I am all about martinis and steaks.
• 26:07
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 26:08
  Dayna Roselli: Um, so it's$49 for this special, okay?
• 26:12
  Dayna Roselli: And it's steak, frites, and a martini.
• 26:18
  Dayna Roselli: Now that's a pretty good deal.
• 26:20
  Dayna Roselli: Now you can upgrade.
• 26:22
  Dayna Roselli: So it starts at$49.
• 26:23
  Dayna Roselli: If you wanted to get like a filet instead of something else, it was like add on another$20.
• 26:28
  Dayna Roselli: Um, but and things like that.
• 26:30
  Dayna Roselli: But it it's it's a good deal.
• 26:32
  Dayna Roselli: And especially because you're getting the vibe, you're getting the outdoor seating, and then you're getting a great meal.
• 26:41
  Sean McAllister: So the um the$49 uh deal is a 10-ounce prime flat iron steak plus uh the fritz, plus your choice of signature martini.
• 26:55
  Sean McAllister: You can get a vodka martini, a gin martini, or an espresso martini.
• 27:00
  Sean McAllister: That's good.
• 27:00
  Sean McAllister: And that comes out with your meal.
• 27:03
  Sean McAllister: Uh and the the fritz, by the way, are hand-cut duck fat freaks.
• 27:09
  Dayna Roselli: They were really good.
• 27:11
  Dayna Roselli: That was good.
• 27:12
  Sean McAllister: They were good.
• 27:13
  Sean McAllister: So good.
• 27:14
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, my whole thing.
• 27:16
  Dayna Roselli: I didn't even have one left.
• 27:18
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, I don't think I did either.
• 27:19
  Sean McAllister: And uh, as far as steaks go, like you said, Dana, you can upgrade to a filet or a bone and ribeye.
• 27:27
  Sean McAllister: Um, and then you can add on, you know, some sides too.
• 27:30
  Sean McAllister: You can add on a lobster tail, you can add on grilled prawns.
• 27:34
  Sean McAllister: Um, but 49 bucks for that steak, martini, and fritz, that's a great deal.
• 27:40
  Dayna Roselli: It is a good deal.
• 27:41
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 27:42
  Sean McAllister: And you get a great view.
• 27:44
  Sean McAllister: There's good atmosphere.
• 27:46
  Sean McAllister: There was a DJ up there playing some music.
• 27:49
  Sean McAllister: The misters were going, so it wasn't too hot.
• 27:52
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 27:52
  Sean McAllister: And especially once the sun dips down.
• 27:54
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 27:54
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, it was a warm night too.
• 27:56
  Dayna Roselli: So I think right now that we're mentioning this, as fall is approaching, perfect weather in Vegas, low 90s, high 80s, low 80s, it's gonna be a hot spot for sure.
• 28:07
  Dayna Roselli: I loved the chopped salad that we got too, and we got that.
• 28:10
  Dayna Roselli: See, this is why we aren't foodies, because I didn't write down the name of the shrimp snack we got.
• 28:15
  Dayna Roselli: It was under snacks, it was spicy.
• 28:16
  Dayna Roselli: Ugh, it was delicious.
• 28:18
  Dayna Roselli: Uh it's okay.
• 28:18
  Dayna Roselli: They'll they'll know.
• 28:19
  Sean McAllister: Look for the spicy it's like the firecracker shrimp.
• 28:23
  Dayna Roselli: Something like that.
• 28:24
  Sean McAllister: Um, it is.
• 28:25
  Sean McAllister: It's on the snack portion of the menu.
• 28:28
  Sean McAllister: They were so good.
• 28:29
  Dayna Roselli: That was so good.
• 28:31
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 28:31
  Sean McAllister: It was like the tempura shrimp with a little um like a spicy aioli sauce on them.
• 28:37
  Dayna Roselli: And there's a lot in there too.
• 28:38
  Dayna Roselli: So it's a good snack.
• 28:39
  Dayna Roselli: It's a good size.
• 28:40
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, we had four four people at the table and we could all share it, and it was enough.
• 28:44
  Dayna Roselli: Um, so that was great.
• 28:45
  Dayna Roselli: We had some great desserts.
• 28:47
  Dayna Roselli: Um, the staff was great there.
• 28:48
  Dayna Roselli: So it's nice.
• 28:49
  Dayna Roselli: I think you know, something different.
• 28:51
  Dayna Roselli: If a lot of people look for patio restaurants with a view on the strip, and I think this is a great choice.
• 28:56
  Dayna Roselli: I used to go there back when it was Chateau Nightclub.
• 28:59
  Dayna Roselli: So I actually hadn't been back in a long time, and I was happy to get there.
• 29:02
  Dayna Roselli: So we had a lot of fun.
• 29:04
  Dayna Roselli: And um, you might want to check out that special.
• 29:07
  Sean McAllister: Yes.
• 29:07
  Sean McAllister: And by the way, I did just look it up, Dana.
• 29:10
  Sean McAllister: It's the crispy firecracker shrimp.
• 29:12
  Sean McAllister: Okay.
• 29:12
  Sean McAllister: So that is that is what they're called.
• 29:15
  Dayna Roselli: I always say, this is why we aren't foodies, we aren't influencers.
• 29:22
  Dayna Roselli: Oh, I sometimes I forget.
• 29:24
  Dayna Roselli: I snap a picture and then I get a little video and I talk about it, and it's in my mind, but sometimes I'm really bad with names.
• 29:31
  Dayna Roselli: All right.
• 29:31
  Dayna Roselli: Well, listen, uh, across the street over at Park MGM, Bruno Mars is returning for some shows in December.
• 29:38
  Dayna Roselli: And we know you love Bruno.
• 29:41
  Dayna Roselli: Uh, tickets are on sale now.
• 29:43
  Dayna Roselli: He is actually doing Tuesday, December 30th, and then New Year's Eve.
• 29:47
  Dayna Roselli: He usually does New Year's Eve, doesn't he?
• 29:49
  Sean McAllister: He does.
• 29:50
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 29:50
  Dayna Roselli: So he's doing it again.
• 29:52
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and as I said, tickets are on sale.
• 29:54
  Dayna Roselli: Those shows go quick.
• 29:55
  Dayna Roselli: You gotta get on it, and that's why we figured we'd throw that in today's audio podcast.
• 29:59
  Sean McAllister: And by the way, Bruno Mars is a nominee for the upcoming MTV Video Music Awards.
• 30:05
  Dayna Roselli: He is.
• 30:05
  Dayna Roselli: And I was saying, or like, Bruno really hasn't come out with a solo song in a long time.
• 30:09
  Dayna Roselli: How and he's still getting nominated for awards, but he did a duet with Lady Gaga.
• 30:14
  Sean McAllister: Yep.
• 30:14
  Dayna Roselli: And then he did that duet um with for the song with Apt, or is it called Apt?
• 30:21
  Dayna Roselli: With Rose, Rose, Rose, or whatever.
• 30:23
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.

  Dayna Roselli: That one.
• 30:28
  Dayna Roselli: Um, so he's up nominated for that too.
• 30:33
  Dayna Roselli: No, it sticks in your head all day.
• 30:34
  Dayna Roselli: Stop.
• 30:35
  Sean McAllister: I know.
• 30:35
  Sean McAllister: Now it's gonna be uh but yeah, good for him nominated.

  Dayna Roselli: Great interview with Nick.
• 30:56
  Dayna Roselli: He's on Cloud9 and said he did not expect this.
• 31:00
  Dayna Roselli: He was just grateful to be playing the sphere to begin with.
• 31:04
  Dayna Roselli: And then now they have just taken Las Vegas and the world by storm again with this resurgence, and now they are nominated for best group.
• 31:13

  Sean McAllister: I'm so happy for them.
• 31:23
  Sean McAllister: So I mean, they've gone from I mean, they never really were away.
• 31:28
  Sean McAllister: They had a uh residency that they sold out back in what 2017 over at Planet Hollywood.
• 31:37
  Sean McAllister: That was a smashing success.
• 31:38
  Dayna Roselli: It was, but they weren't a headline on entertainment.
• 31:43
  Dayna Roselli: You know what I mean?
• 31:44
  Dayna Roselli: Yes, I know what you mean because of the residency, you know, or like when they were at Planet, you know, I mean they're literally a headline.
• 31:51
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 31:51
  Dayna Roselli: And People magazine and entertainment tonight, like all the time now.
• 31:55
  Sean McAllister: And everything they do is a story.
• 31:57
  Dayna Roselli: People magazine reporting, they make they make four million a show, too.
• 32:00
  Dayna Roselli: That's another good for them.
• 32:02
  Sean McAllister: That is another good for them, man.
• 32:04
