• 5:09
  SPEAKER_03: And it's not even the thing now.
• 5:11
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, the soap operas have been around for a hundred years, you know.
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_03: So, I mean, and I even watch one soap opera just to kind of get inspired.

  SPEAKER_03: Uh The Bold and the Beautiful.
• 5:23
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, it's a classic.

• 5:30
  SPEAKER_03: A long time, a long time.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_03: But did you know, do you know how the term soap opera came about?
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_03: I'm assuming it has something to do with soap.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_04: Yes, it does.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_04: I that's as far as I know.
• 5:40
  SPEAKER_03: But do you know how far back it goes?
• 5:41
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_03: It goes back to radio when radio first came out, like in the 1918 or something like that.
• 5:48
  SPEAKER_03: So it's well over a hundred years old.
• 5:51
  SPEAKER_03: And the soap companies sponsored the sh the shows.
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_03: So that's how they came up with soap operas.
• 6:00
  SPEAKER_03: Soap operas.
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_03: Right.
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I think Ivory was one of the first uh Ivory Soap was one of the first sponsors of the soap operas.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_04: So the more you know with Donna Julian.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, that's right, you know, because that's that's my you know, nerd little professor details that come up.
• 6:16
  SPEAKER_03: But I find it fascinating, you know, because a lot of times people think, oh, this is such a new I thought I had a new idea doing micro dramas because I go, oh, I said, and I've been looking at the scenes and I've timed the scenes, and the scenes are only two and three minutes, you know, so you could do this online.
• 6:33
  SPEAKER_03: And I'm and talking um to um this fellow at Network Media, and he's very politely nodding his head and he says, Yeah, he says they're called micro dramas.
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_03: You mean they're already doing it?
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_04: Donald Joy, you should know by now there are no more new ideas.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_04: Every idea has been done before.
• 6:51
  SPEAKER_04: We're not trying to reinvent the real, we're just trying to improve it.
• 6:54
  SPEAKER_03: He just thought it was really interesting the way I got around to do it to that decision that I'll do a micro drama studying, timing the scenes in the actual bold and the beautiful.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_04: That's brilliant.
• 7:05
  SPEAKER_03: It's figuring it out.
• 7:06
  SPEAKER_04: But uh I'm very excited for this.

  SPEAKER_04: Really?
• 8:13
  SPEAKER_04: I was my best friend was a Brad Pitt impersonator.
• 8:16
  SPEAKER_04: And he looked very close to Brad Pitt to the point where some people even mistakenly thought he was Brad Pitt.

  SPEAKER_04: Uh he was very socially awkward, but he was he as long as he kept his mouth shut, he was perfect.
• 8:27
  SPEAKER_04: He was great.

• 8:31
  SPEAKER_04: Like, nobody thought that I was him, but they were like, oh, you look like him.
• 8:34
  SPEAKER_04: And that was good enough.

  SPEAKER_03: But again, he seems like he's probably more on the reserve side.
• 24:20
  SPEAKER_01: Dang.
• 24:21
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 24:21
  SPEAKER_04: Christian.
• 24:22

• 24:25
  SPEAKER_04: I think the next one's about to be a wild card.
• 24:27
  SPEAKER_03: No, because I mean, I mean, the golf, the soccer, good food, all that is very nice and everything.
• 24:32
  SPEAKER_03: But I I would probably tend to get bored with that very quickly.
• 24:36
  SPEAKER_03: That's fair.
• 24:37
  SPEAKER_03: And I know me.
• 24:38
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, so.

  SPEAKER_03: But then again, here I am.
• 26:05
  SPEAKER_03: Exactly.
• 26:07
  SPEAKER_04: I would in fact, if anything, I think we'd replace Spider-Man with Sopranos.
• 26:11
  SPEAKER_04: I think that would be a fair That would be good.
• 26:13
  SPEAKER_03: That would be good, yeah.
• 26:14
  SPEAKER_03: And staying home, and that's cool.
• 26:16

  SPEAKER_03: But he likes staying home, he likes relaxing, things like that.
• 26:23

  SPEAKER_04: Devin is one is the far extreme of outgoing party goers.
• 27:48
  SPEAKER_00: But this just proves that dating apps don't cut it because Donna thought he was reserved.
• 27:53

  SPEAKER_04: We just wanted some diversity with the people that we have.
• 28:43
  SPEAKER_04: Yes.
• 28:44
  SPEAKER_04: Uh so I figured Shin would be a perfect uh candidate for that in in Vegas.
• 28:49
  SPEAKER_04: Christian is on, he's the captain of the soccer team here in Las Vegas.
• 28:54
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, is that right?

  SPEAKER_03: So that's another thing.

  SPEAKER_03: You know, when I see a lot of interest in sports, I know that's not for me.
• 29:07
  SPEAKER_04: It it doesn't do it for you.
• 29:08
  SPEAKER_04: That's not gonna get you excited.
• 29:10
  SPEAKER_04: And then lastly, Tony is my dad.

  SPEAKER_03: Right?
• 29:23
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.

  SPEAKER_04: Maybe you guys can have some fun and go ahead and you know, do whatever.
• 29:33
  SPEAKER_04: Tony.

  SPEAKER_04: So, Donna, what do you think?
• 29:44
  SPEAKER_04: You you finally you finally did the dating app scene.
• 29:47
  SPEAKER_03: Well, I finally did.
• 29:48
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it's been it's been a while, like I say, because I never spent any time on dating apps at all.
• 29:52
  SPEAKER_03: Uh we say I just do online recycling.
• 29:55
  SPEAKER_03: I go to the obituaries.
• 29:57
  SPEAKER_03: Oh no.
• 29:58
  SPEAKER_03: I see who died and who might be left on the market that I would know.
• 30:02
  SPEAKER_03: You know?
• 30:03
  SPEAKER_03: And so that's that's what I do.
• 30:04
  SPEAKER_04: You know, that's strategic, and I I love you for that.
• 30:07
  SPEAKER_04: That's that's big brain moves, I think.
• 30:08
  SPEAKER_04: Big brain work.
• 30:09
  SPEAKER_04: That's uh that's exactly what that is.
• 30:11
  SPEAKER_04: I'll tell you what I'm this just randomly came to me as you were telling me the story of how you went to San Diego.
• 30:16
  SPEAKER_04: You can go, you can be on the road.
• 30:18
  SPEAKER_04: You can be on, yeah.
• 30:19
  SPEAKER_04: Good job, Yerman.
• 30:20
  SPEAKER_04: You did a good job.
• 30:22
  SPEAKER_04: You you can go on the road and you can just do stand up at any open mic or any club that you know is is there.
• 30:27
  SPEAKER_04: That's that must be such a cool experience to do.
• 30:29
  SPEAKER_04: Like, do you always I mean I'm assuming you have to have your material just ready to go at a moment's notice.
• 30:35
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
• 30:36
  SPEAKER_03: You it's interesting.
• 30:38
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, because you know, different areas like I've done some stand-up on the East Coast, you know, when I go back and visit family and I have friends, you know, and we go into clubs and maybe do an open mic here and there.
• 30:54
  SPEAKER_03: Um you have a certain type of audience versus you know, Vegas, which is mostly tourists, yeah, you know, that you get in front of.
• 31:05
  SPEAKER_03: And when I was down in San Diego, there was a lot of locals there, you know.
• 31:11
  SPEAKER_03: And uh sometimes, you know, you you you try to basically kind of figure out the audience, you know, kind of feel their vibe and see what direction you're gonna take them.
• 31:21
  SPEAKER_03: And sometimes you go into a direction and they just look at you like you've got three heads.
• 31:26
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you know, so you say, Okay, fine, I guess not for this group, you know, this this kind of thing.
• 31:32
  SPEAKER_03: Um, but you know, audiences, every audience appreciates the laughter.
• 31:38
  SPEAKER_03: They want to laugh, you know, and and and and if you can bring that out in them just even by having a good time with them, yeah, then it's it's cool.
• 31:48
  SPEAKER_04: Is there a stereotype in regards to audiences and the location that you're performing?
• 31:52
  SPEAKER_04: Like if it's an audience or crowd in the East Coast or a crowd on San Diego, are they different?
• 31:57
  SPEAKER_04: Or is it pretty much just kind of a a crapshoot based on wherever you are?
• 32:02
  SPEAKER_04: Pretty much of a crapshoot.
• 32:03
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 32:03
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, because you know, you're you know, you have people of all different beliefs and intellects and everything in every audience.
• 32:10
  SPEAKER_03: You're never really quite sure.
• 32:12
  SPEAKER_03: And like I said though, in the Vegas scene, a lot of them are just drunk tourists, you know, so anything is funny.
• 32:18
  SPEAKER_03: Anything for them, no, they're just gonna go for it, you know.
• 32:21
  SPEAKER_03: Um and the locals, you know, the locals are always very generous here in Vegas.
• 32:27
  SPEAKER_03: Um because they've seen this is a theater town, and they've seen a lot of talent and they support live music, live comedy, so they're a little bit more uh gregarious with you.
• 32:41
  SPEAKER_03: That's fair.
• 32:42
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, so it's kind of fun.
• 32:43
  SPEAKER_04: You brought it up last time, but I can't remember off the top of my head which clubs do you perform at here in town?
• 32:47
  SPEAKER_03: Let's see.
• 32:48
  SPEAKER_03: Well, let's see.
• 32:49
  SPEAKER_03: Uh definitely wise guys.
• 32:50
  SPEAKER_03: I'm always at Wise Guys on Wednesday nights.
• 32:52
  SPEAKER_03: I'll be there tomorrow night, as a matter of fact.
• 32:55
  SPEAKER_04: Tomorrow the Wednesday the 23rd.
• 32:57
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, Wednesday the 23rd.
• 32:59
  SPEAKER_03: It's a seven o'clock show.
• 33:00
  SPEAKER_03: Um and uh I've you know it's it's kind of interesting because uh opportunities come and go.
• 33:08
  SPEAKER_03: I've uh worked at Jimmy Kimmel's, you know, I was with their 360 Comedy Network uh series when they were doing that.
• 33:18
  SPEAKER_03: I was at the A Hearn, uh, but then they've changed venues.
• 33:22
  SPEAKER_03: Um I've worked at Delirious, uh I just did Bucks Tavern last week.
• 33:28
  SPEAKER_03: Buck's Tavern.
• 33:29
  SPEAKER_03: How was that?
• 33:29
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that's always fun.
• 33:30
  SPEAKER_03: That's a that's a local, it's it's really a great bar uh out there on Nellis Nellis Boulevard.
• 33:38
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 33:38
  SPEAKER_03: I'm trying to think of the crossroads, but uh it's a great little bar, and Kim Kelsey is the owner there.
• 33:44
  SPEAKER_03: And she has this little section in the bar that she actually set up like a little comedy theater.
• 33:50
  SPEAKER_03: And so, and it's a very popular place.
• 33:53
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, Wednesday nights they have uh comedy.
• 33:55
  SPEAKER_03: So I just did them last last week.
• 33:58
  SPEAKER_03: Um and that's it, but that's about it for now because I've been so busy doing my podcast and now I'm doing this little other production.
• 34:08
  SPEAKER_03: So I kind of fit shows in as I can.
• 34:11
  SPEAKER_03: Um if there's any local show that comes up or a special showcase, oh I'll be uh at the um at the wise guy showcase uh on November November 1st.
• 34:21
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, with uh John Caparulo.
• 34:24
  SPEAKER_03: Oh yeah.
• 34:24
  SPEAKER_03: And um so you know, when all those, you know, when they but in my uh venture, okay, my design is to uh uh really create energy online.
• 34:38
  SPEAKER_03: This is why I put the uh energy into doing the podcast and why I do a lot of my clips that I'm doing, you know, editing and distributing and now working with the media, uh the media network.
• 34:51
  SPEAKER_03: Um because I really think that's uh the way to go.
• 34:55
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, in terms of building your name, building your reputation.
• 34:58
  SPEAKER_03: And then the rest follows.
• 35:00
  SPEAKER_03: Um I'm I you know, uh the idea of becoming a road comic for me is not enticing.
• 35:07
  SPEAKER_03: It doesn't appeal to it.
• 35:08
  SPEAKER_03: It doesn't it doesn't appeal to me, you know, because you know, I don't I like to travel, but I don't like to do that much traveling.
• 35:15
  SPEAKER_03: And I don't really want my income to be reliant on that.
• 35:21
  SPEAKER_03: But I love the comics and all the especially the younger comics that are really out there hustling and working to make their name, getting on those stages and doing the things that they need to do to grow their uh popularity.
• 35:36
  SPEAKER_04: I do enjoy we've had a couple of these comics that you're even talking about on our show too.
• 35:41
  SPEAKER_04: And I I I've I love hearing their stories as well because I like seeing I like seeing the successful comics that have made it that are there.
• 35:49
  SPEAKER_04: We've had uh Butch Bradley on, um, and yeah, he's a comic that you know has a residency here in Vegas and he's been in movies, he's he's well established, and he's he's he he's made it.
• 36:01
  SPEAKER_04: And then I like seeing Haley Brooks or I like seeing Jarrett and I like seeing like their And they're all up and coming.
• 36:07
  SPEAKER_04: They're all up and coming, and they're eager and they're hungry, and they're they have a lot of energy, and they have a lot of energy, and I like the I like that they share their ups and they share their downs because that it's real life.
• 36:16
  SPEAKER_04: There are gonna be downs.
• 36:17
  SPEAKER_03: Oh yeah, plenty of time to do that.
• 36:19
  SPEAKER_03: These kids are always hustling, yes, you know, and and I appreciate that because I remember when I was their age, yeah, I was doing you know, three or four or five things at once, too, juggling oh you know, and I'm at that stage in my life where I really don't want to do that, I don't really need to do that, yeah, you know, and I want to help them if I could help people lift them up a little bit, you know, like with my podcast or like with this little venture that I'm doing now.
• 36:45
  SPEAKER_03: I'm happy to do that.
• 36:46
  SPEAKER_03: And that's really I think my goal.
• 36:48
  SPEAKER_03: Good, you know, and to really encourage uh not just women, but even the even younger men, you know, to really pursue their dreams and to really take stock into who they are and their qualities.
• 37:01
  SPEAKER_03: And that's that's kind of like my game.
• 37:03
  SPEAKER_04: Are you finding your your community with the Cougarlicious brand that you have?

• 38:51
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, and then that gets split up a little bit more too, like 35 to 45, 45 to 65.
• 38:58
  SPEAKER_03: Um, and they're still there, but the men are starting to also pay attention.
• 39:04
  SPEAKER_04: So yeah, I wonder if it's because, and call me crazy, I wonder if it's because they in their algorithm involves searching for cougars.
• 39:12
  SPEAKER_04: And that could be the other thing.
• 39:14
  SPEAKER_04: Your your brand is cougarlicious.
• 39:16
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 39:17
  SPEAKER_04: It's you know, it's on par with what they're probably searched for.
• 39:20
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, but I think maybe for a different reason.
• 39:24
  SPEAKER_04: Maybe for a different reason.
• 39:25
  SPEAKER_04: But that's okay.
• 39:26
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, listen, they find you regardless.
• 39:27
  SPEAKER_04: That's that's right.
• 39:28
  SPEAKER_04: That's the beauty and the strategy of having that name.
• 39:30
  SPEAKER_04: We changed our name from the Hey Big Head show to like the the the full name is Hey Big Head, the Vegas Local Podcast.
• 39:40
  SPEAKER_04: And when we changed it to the Vegas Local Podcast, like added that on, our views and our downloads increased.
• 39:48
  SPEAKER_04: Uh-huh.
• 39:48
  SPEAKER_04: And it was almost instantaneous.
• 39:50
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 39:51
  SPEAKER_04: So the title of your podcast is so important in terms of SEO.
• 39:56
  SPEAKER_04: Um, and especially if it's like an inside joke, like hey big head, just by itself doesn't necessarily have any meaning to anybody that doesn't know me.
• 40:05
  SPEAKER_04: But if we add on a little bit more description to it, then it gets people's attention.
• 40:10
  SPEAKER_04: Then it shows up in people's algorithms.
• 40:13
  SPEAKER_04: And I attribute so much of the boot our first boosts in downloads to that is when we changed our name.
• 40:22
  SPEAKER_04: Um and it uh it's uh this could be a perfect example as well of people are searching for cougars, and cougarelicious is there, regardless of if that's what they're originally searching for or not.
• 40:31
  SPEAKER_03: Exactly, exactly.
• 40:32
  SPEAKER_03: So I have to see now what the hookup does.
• 40:35
  SPEAKER_04: That's right.
• 40:35
  SPEAKER_03: Exactly.
• 40:36
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, cougarelius you got hookup.
• 40:38
  SPEAKER_04: I think I think it's pretty self-explanatory.
• 40:40
  SPEAKER_04: What's what's going on here?
• 40:42
  SPEAKER_04: Um I love that though.
• 40:43
  SPEAKER_04: That's that's that's exciting for you though.
• 40:45
  SPEAKER_03: I'm very excited for you because you have a lot of good things in in in you know, well, you know, you gotta keep bit you gotta keep active, be creative, be active.
• 40:52
  SPEAKER_03: And, you know, I was watching this, you know, all these uh all this attention now that's going on with AI, right?
• 41:00
  SPEAKER_03: With what's happening with AI and how it's becoming more sophisticated, more intelligent, and things like this.
• 41:06
  SPEAKER_03: And I was watching a a little segment about what AI what how it's happened, you know, and how it's kind of c been building within itself.
• 41:18
  SPEAKER_03: And it's very similar to what actually happens in your own brain.
• 41:22
  SPEAKER_03: You know, if you l allow your brain to be stagnant, nothing is gonna nothing is going to evolve.
• 41:29
  SPEAKER_03: But if you keep your brain active and you keep connecting different neurons, I mean I'm learning a a whole new language, you know, by being in this online environment.
• 41:40
  SPEAKER_03: And I'm learning a little bit more about the strategies that younger people I mean you as well.
• 41:48
  SPEAKER_03: Thank you.
• 41:48
  SPEAKER_04: I'm glad I made that.
• 41:49
  SPEAKER_04: Julie, did you hear that?
• 41:50
  SPEAKER_04: She called me young.
• 41:51
  SPEAKER_03: Young, you are adorable.
• 41:52
  SPEAKER_03: Thank you.
• 41:53
  SPEAKER_04: Julie did you hear that?
• 41:54
  SPEAKER_04: She called me adorable.
• 41:55
  SPEAKER_03: Is he too adorable though?
• 41:57
  SPEAKER_04: Am I uh am I Mitch adorable or am I Andrew adorable?
• 42:02
  SPEAKER_03: You are in your own category adorable.
• 42:04
  SPEAKER_04: Thank you.
• 42:05
  SPEAKER_04: I'll take it.
• 42:05
  SPEAKER_03: But that's what happens is that, you know, you start learning new things and your brain cells start connecting in different ways, which basically is a great exercise for your brain.
• 42:16
  SPEAKER_03: So this is what I tell people, you know, when they talk about, you know, getting older and everything.
• 42:21
  SPEAKER_03: You don't know.
• 42:23
  SPEAKER_03: If you just keep yourself active, interested, and engaged, you know, you will continue to just, I think that's the whole secret.
• 42:30
  SPEAKER_04: One of the reasons I love having Donna on is because every now and then she drops these random gems that just blow my mind.
• 42:36
  SPEAKER_04: Like the first time you came on, you talked that we talked about religion.
• 42:39
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 42:39
  SPEAKER_04: And you you dropped a beautiful gem there, and now you're dropping this gem about the neurons.
• 42:44
  SPEAKER_04: I I'm loving it.
• 42:44
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, no, it's it's it's fascinating to me.
• 42:47
  SPEAKER_04: You really you don't expect it, and then you drop it.
• 42:50
  SPEAKER_03: You just don't expect it.
• 42:51
  SPEAKER_03: Just look at her.
• 42:51
  SPEAKER_03: Just look at her Pokemon.
• 42:56
  SPEAKER_04: She got well, I'm ready to play another game if you're ready.
• 43:03
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, no, okay.
• 43:04
  SPEAKER_04: We got one more.
• 43:05
  SPEAKER_04: We got one more game.
• 43:06
  SPEAKER_00: Hi, Tony.
• 43:07
  SPEAKER_04: Hi, Tony.
• 43:07
  SPEAKER_04: I'm sorry, Dad.
• 43:08
  SPEAKER_00: Is he on the TV that whole time?
• 43:10
  SPEAKER_04: Donna wanted him on the TV the whole time.
• 43:12
  SPEAKER_04: She requested to leave him on.
• 43:14
  SPEAKER_00: That's it.
• 43:14
  SPEAKER_04: All right, let me see if I can get him off real quick.
• 43:17
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know how to get him off the screen there.
• 43:18
  SPEAKER_04: Let's see.
• 43:19
  SPEAKER_03: So, what's this next game?
• 43:20
  SPEAKER_04: Next game is going to be so you're a cougar.
• 43:24
  SPEAKER_04: There, you're you you have a community of cougars that follow you.
• 43:28
  SPEAKER_03: So, you have to let me just clarify one thing.
• 43:30
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, yes, I am a cougar.
• 43:32
  SPEAKER_03: But you see, at my age, even a 65-year-old is a younger man.
• 43:37
  SPEAKER_03: So I really don't have much of a choice.
• 43:41
  SPEAKER_03: You get to a certain point, that's it.
• 43:44
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, but go ahead.
• 43:46
  SPEAKER_03: Well, listen that's what makes me a cougar.
• 43:48
  SPEAKER_04: You talked about meeting people face to face.
• 43:50
  SPEAKER_04: You'd rather meet people face to face as opposed to, you know, online in the digital subject.
• 43:55
  SPEAKER_04: You got your urine back on squeezing them tight.
• 43:58
  SPEAKER_04: So you did we're gonna show you five.
• 44:00
  SPEAKER_04: Locations.
• 44:01
  SPEAKER_04: You just tell me where they're here in Vegas, and these are supposedly the five best places to meet cougars.
• 44:08
  SPEAKER_04: And I want you to tell me if this is something that you know you would have.
• 44:12
  SPEAKER_04: Thank you.
• 44:12
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, this would be interesting.
• 44:13
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 44:14
  SPEAKER_03: Would this be a place that I would go?
• 44:16
  SPEAKER_03: Potentially.
• 44:17
  SPEAKER_03: Potentially.
• 44:17
  SPEAKER_04: Some places you may have even been to.
• 44:19
  SPEAKER_04: We'll we'll we'll see.
• 44:19
  SPEAKER_04: But Julie, why don't you read off the the first one here?
• 44:22
  SPEAKER_00: I don't have them in the same order as you, I don't think.
• 44:24
  SPEAKER_00: So which one are you starting with?
• 44:26
  SPEAKER_00: We're starting with Grape Street.
• 44:27
  SPEAKER_00: All right, then maybe I do have them in the same order.
• 44:29
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 44:29
  SPEAKER_00: Grape Street Cafe.
• 44:31
  SPEAKER_00: And I did two bullet points that are pros, and then the bottom one might be something that maybe you don't want in a pickup environment.
• 44:39
  SPEAKER_04: Okay.
• 44:40
  SPEAKER_00: It's a wine bar, so that means, you know, more sociable people.
• 44:43
  SPEAKER_00: It's in downtown Summerland, so you can walk from place to place to place and kind of move around.
• 44:48
  SPEAKER_00: But it is family and group oriented a lot of the time.
• 44:52
  SPEAKER_00: So there might be a bunch of kids running around on any given day.
• 44:56
  SPEAKER_04: Usually during the days, and especially during the weekend days.
• 44:59
  SPEAKER_04: Not necessarily at night as much.
• 45:01
  SPEAKER_04: I've been I've been to Grape Street.
• 45:02
  SPEAKER_04: It's a fantastic spot.
• 45:04
  SPEAKER_03: You tell me, is this some place that you'd find yourself as um yes, um without the family groups.
• 45:15
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 45:15
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 45:16
  SPEAKER_03: So I probably wouldn't go there for Sunday lunch or something, you know.
• 45:21
  SPEAKER_03: That's fair.
• 45:21
  SPEAKER_03: Unless, you know, it's a a female group thing or something.
• 45:25
  SPEAKER_03: But yeah, if it's kids running around, I would probably but if it was in the evening, happy hour, that kind of thing.
• 45:32
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 45:32
  SPEAKER_03: Fair.
• 45:33
  SPEAKER_04: All right.
• 45:33
  SPEAKER_04: Next up we have Sun Coast Hotel and Casino.
• 45:38
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 45:38
  SPEAKER_00: So we've got a strong local crowd, so you're not really dealing with a bunch of tourists in and out, not as much.
• 45:44
  SPEAKER_00: Tons of activities.
• 45:45
  SPEAKER_00: You can go bowling, there's multiple bars, there's multiple restaurants.
• 45:49
  SPEAKER_00: But the younger men are generally only there for events.
• 45:53
  SPEAKER_00: So you might not find a giant crowd of young local men there all the time.
• 45:58
  SPEAKER_04: Now, have you been to Suncoast Hotel?
• 46:01
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah.
• 46:01
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, yeah.
• 46:02
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah.
• 46:02
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 46:03
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, the Sun Coast, that's where I go.
• 46:04
  SPEAKER_03: Um, that's where I that's they have the movie theaters there.
• 46:08
  SPEAKER_03: They have great movie theater.
• 46:10
  SPEAKER_03: They've spoiled me for movie theaters.
• 46:12
  SPEAKER_03: It's a great seats.
• 46:14
  SPEAKER_04: It's a very underrated movie theater.
• 46:16
  SPEAKER_04: I feel like the movie theater doesn't get enough scale.
• 46:18
  SPEAKER_03: It's one of the best I've ever been in.
• 46:19
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 46:20
  SPEAKER_03: It really is.
• 46:21
  SPEAKER_04: It's a great spot.
• 46:22
  SPEAKER_03: You know, so absolutely.
• 46:23
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 46:24
  SPEAKER_04: Um, so do you give this a cougarlicious stamp of approval to finding finding young cubs or is this not your not where you would go?
• 46:34
  SPEAKER_03: Probably not for young cubs.
• 46:37
  SPEAKER_03: You know.
• 46:38
  SPEAKER_03: But they have they have renovated.
• 46:40
  SPEAKER_04: They have.
• 46:41
  SPEAKER_03: You know, and and they've really upgraded and modernized so much of it.
• 46:47
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, I don't know, you know, whether it might be bringing in, you know, younger people.
• 46:54
  SPEAKER_03: But they still they still tend to uh market to the older.
• 46:59
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, they have like bingo tournaments.
• 47:02
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 47:03
  SPEAKER_03: Listen, I love bingo.
• 47:04
  SPEAKER_03: Call me Chris.
• 47:05
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 47:05
  SPEAKER_03: They have bingo tournaments and and and it's really good.
• 47:08
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, they're they they serve the community really well.
• 47:10
  SPEAKER_03: Sure.
• 47:11
  SPEAKER_03: You know, but for younger guys, I don't I don't think it's their so you that's not getting the cougar that's just for approved.
• 47:17
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe it works in reverse though.
• 47:18
  SPEAKER_00: If you're a younger guy looking for a cougar, go to Suncoast.
• 47:22
  SPEAKER_00: If you're a cougar go to the movie theater.
• 47:24
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, the movie theater, yeah.
• 47:25
  SPEAKER_00: Find Donna.
• 47:26
  SPEAKER_04: Find Donna, buy her a ticket, buy her a popcorn.
• 47:28
  SPEAKER_00: That's it.
• 47:28
  SPEAKER_04: That's it.
• 47:29
  SPEAKER_04: All right, next up, Total Wine.
• 47:31
  SPEAKER_00: Total wine and more, specifically the Summerlin location.
• 47:35
  SPEAKER_04: Apparently, this is a hot spot for Oh, yeah, I've been there.
• 47:37
  SPEAKER_00: Let's see.
• 47:38
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, she knows.
• 47:40
  SPEAKER_04: They know her by name there.
• 47:42
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they really read us off.
• 47:44
  SPEAKER_00: All right, so there's lots of people already there.
• 47:46
  SPEAKER_00: They do offer spirit and wine tastings, so that's good social time to meet people.
• 47:51
  SPEAKER_00: But it's literally a liquor store.
• 47:55
  SPEAKER_03: But that's but that's okay.
• 47:58
  SPEAKER_03: Because people who are in liquor stores are usually looking for liquor photo.
• 48:08
  SPEAKER_03: They're looking for booze so they can have a party.
• 48:14
  SPEAKER_03: What is this, Andrew?
• 48:16
  SPEAKER_03: What did I say?
• 48:18
  SPEAKER_04: You know what?
• 48:18
  SPEAKER_04: Uh I I I think I think this should get your stamp of approval.
• 48:22
  SPEAKER_04: It does.
• 48:22
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, good.
• 48:23
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it does.
• 48:26
  SPEAKER_04: Specifically the Summerlin location.
• 48:28
  SPEAKER_00: Specifically the Summerlin location.
• 48:29
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, that's good to know.
• 48:30
  SPEAKER_04: Total one.
• 48:31
  SPEAKER_04: Shout out, Total Ryan.
• 48:32
  SPEAKER_04: This is like the OG cougar pickup spot.
• 48:36
  SPEAKER_04: Um, this is like the unofficial number one spot to pick up cougars called Vintner Grill.
• 48:42
  SPEAKER_04: Have you been to Vintner Grill?
• 48:43
  SPEAKER_04: Have not.
• 48:44
  SPEAKER_00: Well, but I'm gonna have to look it up.
• 48:46
  SPEAKER_04: You have to check it out.
• 48:46
  SPEAKER_04: Julie, read it off to us, please.
• 48:48
  SPEAKER_00: All right, so it's more of an upscale crowd.
• 48:50
  SPEAKER_00: They do have a bar and lounge area where you can interact more.
• 48:54
  SPEAKER_00: I think there's like an outside patio area as well.
• 48:56
  SPEAKER_00: But it can skew more towards a date night rather than singles being there.
• 49:03
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 49:04
  SPEAKER_04: So I I will say that I've I've been there to eat.
• 49:06
  SPEAKER_04: I've been on a date there with uh someone who was my age.
• 49:11
  SPEAKER_04: It was the appropriate same age.
• 49:14
  SPEAKER_04: Um the bar itself, that's pretty much it.
• 49:18
  SPEAKER_04: Like the bar is not too big.
• 49:19
  SPEAKER_04: It's beautiful.
• 49:19
  SPEAKER_04: It's beautiful, but it's not too big, and that's really where you would do your pickup in terms of approaching somebody.
• 49:27
  SPEAKER_04: Uh so there isn't too much place uh space to play with, but the food's very good, the drinks are great, the ambiance is fantastic, and like I said, like it's the OG, well, unofficial number one spot to pick up cougars.
• 49:41
  SPEAKER_04: But I don't want to put words into Donna's mouth, so you tell me.
• 49:45
  SPEAKER_00: I feel like you influenced her.
• 49:46
  SPEAKER_03: I may not.
• 49:47
  SPEAKER_03: But like I said, it it certainly it certainly looks like a beautiful place for a date night.
• 49:52
  SPEAKER_03: Absolutely.
• 49:53
  SPEAKER_03: Um and unless they had something that was specific to a happy hour engagement where they would actually draw in, you know, a more uh singles crowd.
• 50:07
  SPEAKER_03: Um that would be my that would be my thought.
• 50:11
  SPEAKER_03: If they had that, if they had that kind of activity, absolutely.
• 50:14
  SPEAKER_03: But if it was just to walk in, you know, and just have a cocktail with everybody else in couples, uh probably not.
• 50:22
  SPEAKER_04: Probably not.
• 50:23
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, so yeah.
• 50:24
  SPEAKER_04: You know, if I was if I was the manager at Vintner Grill, the marketing manager, I would lean so heavily into the fact that we are the unofficial number one spot for cougars because this is you ask anybody, you type into Google what's the number one spot to pick up cougars in Vegas, it's Vintner Grill.
• 50:39
  SPEAKER_04: Really?
• 50:39
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, in Summerlin.
• 50:40
  SPEAKER_04: It's a again, really good spot.
• 50:41
  SPEAKER_03: I'll have to check it out.
• 50:42
  SPEAKER_04: You have to check it out.
• 50:43
  SPEAKER_04: And then we have one more, uh, which I haven't been to, I haven't even heard of.
• 50:46
  SPEAKER_04: Um Julie, you want to start us off?
• 50:48
  SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
• 50:49
  SPEAKER_00: So Water Street District is actually down in Henderson.
• 50:52
  SPEAKER_00: Um, and it's like a whole area that you can walk around.
• 50:55
  SPEAKER_00: So walkable with lots of places to stop and meet people.
• 50:58
  SPEAKER_00: You know, there's a little strip with different bars that you can kind of hop in and out of.
• 51:02
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, they have a lot of weekend um weekend nightlife and not a ton of tourists.
• 51:06
  SPEAKER_00: Mostly locals are going to Henderson, you know.
• 51:09
  SPEAKER_00: But the crowd does vary depending on what events are happening.
• 51:12
  SPEAKER_00: Like some weekends, you know, they have like the big family Christmas thing, but then they'll have uh some sort of concert in the park where it's a younger, more single, lively crowd.
• 51:23
  SPEAKER_00: Sure.
• 51:24
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, so there's there's a lot going on at one.
• 51:26
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I've been I've been down to the water district.
• 51:29
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, you know, and it is, it's it's very um, it's very friendly, okay.
• 51:34
  SPEAKER_03: It's very open, very casual, very chill.
• 51:38
  SPEAKER_03: We love that.
• 51:39
  SPEAKER_03: Um and I like that.
• 51:42
  SPEAKER_03: Um, and you know, you again you have a lot of locals down there.
• 51:46
  SPEAKER_03: I haven't gone there very often because of the distance.
• 51:50
  SPEAKER_04: It's pretty far.
• 51:51
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 51:51
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 51:52
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 51:52
  SPEAKER_03: But you yeah, I do have to s mention one thing that you've kind of like missed.
• 51:57
  SPEAKER_03: Oh.
• 51:58
  SPEAKER_03: And that is uh Home Depot.
• 52:01
  SPEAKER_03: Oh at 7.30 in the morning.

  SPEAKER_03: Is that where you're normally found if you go into if you go into Home Depot, you know, you've got all of these construction workers.
• 52:17
  SPEAKER_03: They're all in there, boy, getting all their getting their wood.
• 52:25
  SPEAKER_03: And all their remodeling tools.
• 52:28
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you you missed that completely.

  SPEAKER_04: Julie, we would use it.
• 52:31
