  Sean McAllister: If it's fun to do or see, it's on Vegas Near Me.
• 2:16
  Dayna Roselli: Let's get to it now and spin that wheel.
• 2:39
  Dayna Roselli: We had someone recently say to us, well, you probably don't have enough to talk about, you know, on the podcast if you were to do it, you know, twice a week.
• 2:47
  Dayna Roselli: And we're like, oh my gosh, we have enough to talk about like every other day, at least.
• 2:51
  Sean McAllister: At least.
• 2:52
  Sean McAllister: I mean, really, it could be a daily thing.
• 2:54
  Sean McAllister: It could be.
• 2:55
  Dayna Roselli: If it responds to be by a lot of money.
• 3:01
  Dayna Roselli: Just cut right to it.
• 3:04
  Dayna Roselli: But um, yeah, I mean, it's funny because whenever we get into the podcast, like I think I came over at like 10 45 today, and now it's 1245.
• 3:12
  Dayna Roselli: But we talk about like so much stuff leading up to it when we think we've got it all laid out because we're like, oh yeah, and we forgot to talk about this, and we gotta add this in and we gotta add that.
• 3:20
  Dayna Roselli: But and it stresses me out always because there's so much to get to.
• 3:24
  Sean McAllister: Well, Dana, don't be stressed out because I'm confident that in the next 37 minutes we can get through everything that's on our list, even though we kept adding to it.
• 3:35
  Dayna Roselli: I know.
• 3:36
  Dayna Roselli: Well, and 37 minutes has been our sweet spot lately.
• 3:38
  Dayna Roselli: It used to be 30 minutes.
• 3:40
  Sean McAllister: It did.
• 3:40
  Dayna Roselli: But I don't know, maybe we try for 30.
• 3:42
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know if people love the 37 minutes.
• 3:44
  Dayna Roselli: Let us know if you like it a little longer or you want us to keep it to 30.
• 3:48
  Sean McAllister: Maybe we cut it to 30, and then that extra seven minutes of stuff we just roll over into an extra episode.
• 3:55
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, something like that.
• 3:56
  Dayna Roselli: Let us know.
• 3:57
  Dayna Roselli: Ideas at Vegas-Revealed.com.
• 4:00
  Sean McAllister: Well, you know, Dana, uh, one of the biggest sports weekends all year is happening this weekend here in Las Vegas.
• 4:08
  Sean McAllister: Of course, talking about the Super Bowl.
• 4:10
  Sean McAllister: The game isn't being held here, but we are going to have tens of thousands of people who come here to Las Vegas to watch the game and to bet on it.
• 4:22
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 4:22
  Dayna Roselli: And about a year ago or so, we were at Virgin Hotels, just off the strip, the old hard rock hotel, if you haven't been here in a while.
• 4:30
  Dayna Roselli: We went to watch a game and we walked by the sports book and it was kind of empty, and we went, that's weird.
• 4:35
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, what's going on here?
• 4:36
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, what's going on?
• 4:37
  Dayna Roselli: And then we realized they didn't have a license for sports betting.
• 4:42
  Dayna Roselli: And we thought, oh, that's interesting.
• 4:44
  Dayna Roselli: When will that happen?
• 4:44
  Dayna Roselli: Well, breaking news, just days ago, they finally got approval, and now it's called the Bet Fred at Mohegan Sun Sportsbook.
• 4:55
  Dayna Roselli: It's officially open at Virgin Hotels.
• 4:58
  Dayna Roselli: The Nevada Gaming Commission and Nevada Gaming Control Board gave them approval.
• 5:04
  Dayna Roselli: And so now they're all set to take bets.
• 5:07
  Dayna Roselli: You can go over there and do it all now at Virgin.
• 5:10
  Sean McAllister: Because honestly, that really is so much fun when you're in a sportsbook environment watching these big games happen.
• 5:18
  Sean McAllister: You know, we've talked about it before, seeing people who are like over the moon because their their bet just hit.
• 5:26
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 5:26
  Sean McAllister: Or people who are just like pissed off and devastated about what just happened because, you know, they've got something on the line.
• 5:34
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 5:35
  Dayna Roselli: So definitely.
• 5:36
  Dayna Roselli: And I like the name.
• 5:37
  Dayna Roselli: And I don't know if it, if it's is it bet Fred or is it the Bet Fred at Mohegan Sun?
• 5:42
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know the answer to that, but regardless, it's kind of a fun name.
• 5:45
  Sean McAllister: I uh I think I'd go with Bet Fred.
• 5:47
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, probably.
• 5:48
  Dayna Roselli: But I like Bet Fred.
• 5:52
  Dayna Roselli: Anyway, uh check it out.
• 5:54
  Dayna Roselli: It's over at Virgin.
• 5:55
  Dayna Roselli: You can now do some sports wagering over there, which is a huge, huge perk for them.
• 6:01
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and uh obviously, as you mentioned, Dana, uh Virgin hotels used to be hard rock.
• 6:09
  Sean McAllister: Now hard rock has taken over the Mirage.
• 6:13
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 6:14
  Dayna Roselli: We've been talking about this, I know, for a while.
• 6:17
  Dayna Roselli: It's still called the Mirage, but they recently changed their website, and you and I had a little chuckle about it, I'm not gonna lie.
• 6:24
  Dayna Roselli: Because I thought, well, gosh, really?
• 6:28
  Dayna Roselli: Because here's the name.
• 6:31
  Dayna Roselli: Ready?
• 6:31
  Sean McAllister: I'm ready.
• 6:34
  unknown: W.
• 6:37
  Dayna Roselli: Hard Rock Hotel Casino Las Vegas.com.
• 6:42
  Dayna Roselli: And to me it seemed like an extra long name.
• 6:46
  Sean McAllister: That that is a pretty long name.
• 6:48
  Dayna Roselli: But it spells it out.
• 6:49
  Dayna Roselli: So it's hardrockhotelcasino lasvegas.com.
• 6:52
  Dayna Roselli: That's the new website.
• 6:53
  Dayna Roselli: When you click on it, it'll go right to the Mirage Las Vegas.
• 6:57
  Dayna Roselli: So they haven't officially changed over to the Hard Rock name just yet.
• 7:01
  Dayna Roselli: FYI, but just a little change.
• 7:04
  Dayna Roselli: I think if you Google the Mirage, that'll probably come up as well.
• 7:07
  Dayna Roselli: It'll be easy to find.
• 7:08
  Dayna Roselli: But yeah, they do have a new website.
• 7:10
  Dayna Roselli: It's it's a little long, Hard Rock Hotel Casino Las Vegas.com.
• 7:14
  Sean McAllister: And I believe the longest URL on the internet also belongs to a resort.
• 7:23
  Sean McAllister: Um it's a website on it's part of hotels.com and it like links to uh a hotel that's uh featured on the website.
• 7:34
  Sean McAllister: And it's the I mean I can't even begin to how long is it go through?
• 7:39
  Sean McAllister: I mean here, I'm just gonna show you this.
• 7:42
  Dayna Roselli: Okay.
• 7:43
  Dayna Roselli: Passing over his phone.
• 7:44
  Sean McAllister: I mean, it's I don't even know how to even get into No, that can't be real.
• 7:49
  Sean McAllister: It's real.
• 7:50
  Dayna Roselli: That is the longest We can't even read it to you, it's that long URL on the internet.
• 7:56
  Sean McAllister: I believe it was even verified by the book of Guinness World's Records.
• 8:02
  Dayna Roselli: I'm clicking visit the link.
• 8:05
  Dayna Roselli: Okay, it's like a whole paragraph.
• 8:07
  Sean McAllister: But it's like symbols and words.
• 8:10
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, that's a whole thing.
• 8:11
  Sean McAllister: Whatever.
• 8:11
  Dayna Roselli: Okay, so this isn't that long.
• 8:13
  Sean McAllister: It's not that long.
• 8:14
  Sean McAllister: I just wanted to put things into perspective.
• 8:16
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 8:18
  Dayna Roselli: All right, so um moving on off the strip.
• 8:20
  Dayna Roselli: Ten minutes off the strip, a brand new hotel casino is going up.
• 8:24
  Dayna Roselli: We've been telling you about it.
• 8:25
  Dayna Roselli: It's a station casino's and it's called Durango.
• 8:29
  Dayna Roselli: They are opening in the fall of 2023, and they just announced their brand new food haul.
• 8:35
  Dayna Roselli: And when I say just announced, we knew they were gonna have a food haul, but we are finally finding out what restaurants are going to be inside the food hall and the name of it.
• 8:45
  Dayna Roselli: It's gonna be called Eat Your Heart Out.
• 8:47
  Dayna Roselli: Love that.
• 8:47
  Sean McAllister: I really like that name.
• 8:48
  Sean McAllister: That's good.
• 8:49
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and these food halls are becoming popular, and it's not just a it's an elevated food hall, so it's like very nice looking.
• 8:57
  Dayna Roselli: And it has counter seating and communal seating, and you can basically go to different restaurants if you want to mix it up.
• 9:05
  Dayna Roselli: If you want to get a burger from one place, and then maybe you want to get some avocado toasts from another, whatever you want to do.
• 9:12
  Sean McAllister: Well, and people think like food hall, is this like a food court that I've been to at the mall?
• 9:18
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 9:18
  Sean McAllister: And no, you're not going to have the like fast food chain kind of uh experience.
• 9:25
  Sean McAllister: It like Dana said, it is a little more elevated, it's a nicer environment.
• 9:30
  Sean McAllister: Um, and each of these uh stations inside of the food hall is essentially like a mini restaurant, so things are prepared prepared fresh for you.
• 9:41
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 9:42
  Sean McAllister: And it's a you know, really good like restaurant uh quality meal in that open airy, you know, food hall environment.
• 9:53
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and we were talking to the folks that are running proper eats over at Aria, and they were saying, you know, this is just the way recently, because we're realizing that everyone in your group doesn't always want to eat the same type of food.
• 10:07
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 10:07
  Sean McAllister: Not everybody wants the the steak when you go out.
• 10:11
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 10:12
  Dayna Roselli: So Eat Your Heart Out has a bunch of restaurants, four of them from LA.
• 10:15
  Dayna Roselli: We just did a whole segment on it in our morning segment in that we do in Los Angeles on Thursday mornings with KCal.
• 10:22
  Dayna Roselli: And they were excited to hear a bunch of their LA and Southern California restaurants are coming here to Durango, which is really cool.
• 10:29
  Dayna Roselli: Uh Irv's burgers, a bunch of other ones.
• 10:32
  Dayna Roselli: But we were also happy to see that Mark Vettri is also opening another spot in Durango, just like he has one at uh Red Rock, but this is going to be in the food hall, and it's Fiorella from Philadelphia.
• 10:45
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, Osteria Fiorella is his famous Philadelphia restaurant.
• 10:50
  Sean McAllister: So some of those East Coast Philly flavors are going to be uh right here, just 10 minutes off the strip.
• 10:58
  Dayna Roselli: That's great.
• 10:59
  Dayna Roselli: Something else we were chatting about.
• 11:01
  Dayna Roselli: Um, Durango's like, you know, it's a big deal.
• 11:03
  Dayna Roselli: It's gonna have a lot, it's gorgeous.
• 11:05
  Dayna Roselli: Um, when you drive by, you can tell it's gonna be a nice resort.
• 11:09
  Dayna Roselli: It's$750 million to build, but you know, it's a luxury boutique resort, which I guess I didn't realize um in the beginning.
• 11:18
  Dayna Roselli: As I read more and more about it, I didn't realize it was gonna be a luxury boutique resort.
• 11:23
  Dayna Roselli: I like that.
• 11:24
  Dayna Roselli: I love that it's gonna be off the strip and have that feel.
• 11:28
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, it kind of when we went to the groundbreaking, they had some they had some setups out there in the desert that kind of gave us a feel of the vibe that we'd experience once the resort was built and it opens, which is coming up quick here.
• 11:46
  Sean McAllister: Um, but it it did feel like a very um kind of like a a Palm Springs spa kind of vibe.
• 11:55
  Dayna Roselli: Right, it did.
• 11:56
  Dayna Roselli: Desert.
• 11:57
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, with like kind of pastel colors with pops of a more yeah, I don't know.
• 12:03
  Sean McAllister: Yeah I like the vibe.
• 12:05
  Sean McAllister: I think it's gonna be a really nice place to to hang out.
• 12:08
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it really is.
• 12:10
  Dayna Roselli: And you know, they cater to locals big time, and they're gonna cater to tourists too.
• 12:15
  Dayna Roselli: It's like I said, it's 10 minutes and it's really easy to get there.
• 12:18
  Dayna Roselli: You literally go like I-15 to 215 and pop off at Durango.
• 12:22
  Dayna Roselli: It's gonna be easy.
• 12:23
  Dayna Roselli: And a lot of these restaurants that they're putting in this food hall, um, and really while they're having the food whole hall is like their whole theme of like from the neighborhood for the neighborhood.
• 12:33
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 12:33
  Dayna Roselli: It's kind of their deal with that.
• 12:35
  Dayna Roselli: So I love that.
• 12:36
  Dayna Roselli: Um, a lot to come over there.
• 12:38
  Dayna Roselli: We will keep you posted, but a little development that came out this week, and again, it's supposed to open in fall of 2023.
• 12:44
  Sean McAllister: You know, it's been a long time.
• 12:46
  Sean McAllister: I I don't know, maybe it hasn't been a long time.
• 12:49
  Sean McAllister: I feel like it's been a long time since we've had uh a movie premiere here in Las Vegas.
• 12:55
  Sean McAllister: It used to be a more regular thing, but um I don't know, I feel like it hasn't happened that much until last night.
• 13:03
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 13:04
  Sean McAllister: It was the Las Vegas premiere of Magic Mike's last dance, the latest in the series.
• 13:11
  Dayna Roselli: The latest.
• 13:12
  Dayna Roselli: And I guess by the title, the last.
• 13:16
  Dayna Roselli: You never know.
• 13:16
  Dayna Roselli: There could always be another, but for now, it's the last dance of the series.
• 13:19
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and by the way, it's Magic Mike, the last dance, not Magic Mike's last dance.
• 13:25
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 13:25
  Sean McAllister: Just wanted to correct myself.
• 13:27
  Dayna Roselli: As long as we know he's still dancing again.
• 13:29
  Sean McAllister: He's still dancing, he's still dancing, and man has all the moves.
• 13:33
  Dayna Roselli: He really does.
• 13:35
  Dayna Roselli: And we say last night, we're recording this on a Wednesday, so it was Tuesday night.
• 13:38
  Dayna Roselli: Uh, the movie comes out on Friday, so it's out now since the podcast is out, but you can go see it in theaters.
• 13:44
  Dayna Roselli: We got to do the pre-screen, and boy, what an event.
• 13:46
  Dayna Roselli: There was a red carpet, popcorn drinks.
• 13:49
  Dayna Roselli: Uh, a lot of the cast members from Magic Mike Live were there, and a lot of them are in the movie, which made it really fun because they were in the theater with us watching, and it was so fun when their parts came on, they were like cheering for each other.
• 14:01
  Sean McAllister: I don't know if I have ever been in a more enthusiastic theater environment, like at a movie theater.
• 14:09
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 14:09
  Dayna Roselli: Well, I mean, the the subject is very enthusiastic as well.
• 14:12
  Sean McAllister: It was.
• 14:14
  Dayna Roselli: We weren't at the Titanic or anything.
• 14:16
  Sean McAllister: It was not.
• 14:17
  Sean McAllister: It was not the anniversary release of Titanic for sure.
• 14:22
  Dayna Roselli: So we're we're sitting there in our seats.
• 14:24
  Dayna Roselli: We went up, you know, stadium seating to the top because we wanted to make sure there was enough room for everyone.
• 14:29
  Dayna Roselli: Down at the bottom, the cast and everything, there was reserved seats.
• 14:32
  Dayna Roselli: Anyway, and the show before it even started, we got a show.
• 14:35
  Dayna Roselli: I should say the Magic Mike live cast came out, and we got to see a bunch of numbers.
• 14:40
  Dayna Roselli: So it was really fun, revved up the crowd, and then the film started.
• 14:44
  Dayna Roselli: It stars Channing Tatum and Selma Hayek, which was great.
• 14:49
  Dayna Roselli: Great.
• 14:49
  Dayna Roselli: The chemistry was good, right?
• 14:51
  Sean McAllister: Really good.
• 14:52
  Dayna Roselli: And my favorite part was well, the beginning.
• 14:57
  Dayna Roselli: Because listen, you can throw a bunch of people in the magic mic movie, but no one really does it like Channing Tatum.
• 15:04
  Dayna Roselli: And that part where I mean this isn't a major spoiler, but um Selma Hayek asked him for a dance and he locks the door with the click of the lock, was like so telling, right?
• 15:16
  Dayna Roselli: It was because he was like, no, no, no, and then click.
• 15:19
  Sean McAllister: Well, I'll I'll tell you what, there were some really funny moments in the movie that made me like really laugh.
• 15:26
  SPEAKER_03: Yes.
• 15:27
  Sean McAllister: And so they uh there was comedy mixed in with the the shirtlessness, grooven and shaken and grinding and all that.
• 15:36
  Sean McAllister: Grinding.
• 15:36
  Dayna Roselli: But overall, here's the thing though.
• 15:38
  Dayna Roselli: If you think about it, overall it's a pretty clean movie.
• 15:41
  Sean McAllister: Besides True, it actually is, yeah.
• 15:45
  Dayna Roselli: Dancing, you know what I mean?
• 15:46
  Dayna Roselli: Like it wasn't, yeah, it was like you said, it was lighthearted, fun.
• 15:51
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, there was some, you know, everything happens with mostly the pants on and the shirt off.
• 15:57
  Dayna Roselli: And then eventually the pants come off for a second.
• 16:00
  Dayna Roselli: It's, you know, just enough to tease us.
• 16:03
  Dayna Roselli: Well, the pants, not everything comes off, just the pants.
• 16:07
  Dayna Roselli: There's underwear boxers, things like that involved.
• 16:09
  Dayna Roselli: Anyway, that's probably enough of a preview.
• 16:11
  Dayna Roselli: We'll give go see um Channing Tatum and Selma Hayek in action and cast members from Magic Mike Live in Magic Mike The Last Dance.
• 16:23
  Sean McAllister: In theaters now.
• 16:24
  Dayna Roselli: In theaters now.
• 16:25
  Sean McAllister: Hey, uh, last week we were telling you we were about to go to the opening of Sol Cocina, uh, the new Mexican restaurant, over inside the forum shops at Caesars Palace.
• 16:38
  Sean McAllister: That's where uh the real housewife of Salt Lake City's Heather Gay was going to be there with Audrina Patridge.
• 16:45
  Sean McAllister: We went and it was fun.
• 16:47
  Dayna Roselli: It was fun.
• 16:48
  Dayna Roselli: And this restaurant's been open since December, but they kind of did like a soft opening.
• 16:52
  Dayna Roselli: So now they wanted to have their big grand VIP party.
• 16:56
  Dayna Roselli: It was so much fun.
• 16:57
  Dayna Roselli: They had so much food going around there to sample and delicious food.
• 17:01
  Dayna Roselli: I must say, there wasn't like a single thing I didn't love.
• 17:05
  Dayna Roselli: Um, great different margarita.
• 17:08
  Dayna Roselli: We had a what watermelon margarita?
• 17:09
  Dayna Roselli: Watermelon.
• 17:10
  Dayna Roselli: That was really good.
• 17:11
  Dayna Roselli: It was.
• 17:12
  Dayna Roselli: They had great um drinks there, uh, the chips and salsa, delicious.
• 17:17
  Dayna Roselli: And it was a party, and it wasn't like overflowing with people.
• 17:21
  Dayna Roselli: It was just a great amount of people so that we could try everything.
• 17:24
  Dayna Roselli: Great ice sculpture.
• 17:26
  Dayna Roselli: They were doing your names on these little shot classes, like etching them on that you could get.
• 17:30
  Dayna Roselli: We were trying out uh Cardi B's oh whip shots, whip shot alcohol, yeah, on top of um little kind of brownie bites or whatever they were.
• 17:39
  Dayna Roselli: Um, it was great.
• 17:41
  Dayna Roselli: We had a fabulous time.
• 17:42
  Dayna Roselli: Bruno Mars was there in the back.
• 17:44
  Dayna Roselli: We thought he was gonna perform, but he was there to do a couple photos with some drinks for promotion because is it his rum that there's yeah, it's his silver ray rum.
• 17:54
  Dayna Roselli: Right, they're offering there.
• 17:56
  Dayna Roselli: So a lot of different partnerships going on.
• 17:58
  Dayna Roselli: They have restaurants all over the country, and now Las Vegas finally has a Seoul Mexican cocina.
• 18:05
  Dayna Roselli: Go check it out, recommend the food.
• 18:07
  Dayna Roselli: It was great.
• 18:08
  Sean McAllister: And by the way, if you're walking up and down the uh strip, it's easy just to bop into um the forum shops from that strip side entrance there, just like it is at Hell's Kitchen.
• 18:21
  Sean McAllister: Exactly.
• 18:22
  Sean McAllister: Which brings us to the fifth anniversary and two millionth guest at Hell's Kitchen on the Las Vegas Strip.
• 18:33
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, in Hell's Kitchen's right in front of Caesars Palace.
• 18:36
  Dayna Roselli: So again, basically stripside.
• 18:38
  Dayna Roselli: Um, great location.
• 18:40
  Dayna Roselli: It's been so popular ever since it opened.
• 18:43
  Dayna Roselli: Chef Gordon Ramsay came into town and surprised guests that were at Hell's Kitchen that night, which was really fun to see him interact.
• 18:51
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, could what perfect timing?
• 18:54
  Dayna Roselli: You go to Vegas and you're like, I want to go to Hell's Kitchen because I've always wanted to, and you're eating in there and Gordon Ramsay shows up.
• 19:01
  Dayna Roselli: What a memory!
• 19:02
  Sean McAllister: And it turns into an entire event.
• 19:04
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 19:05
  Sean McAllister: That was and he's great.
• 19:06
  Sean McAllister: He takes a great amount of time to go around the restaurant, to take pictures at each table.
• 19:13
  Sean McAllister: Whenever he has stopped in, he makes a point to make the rounds and say hi to everybody there.
• 19:19
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 19:20
  Sean McAllister: Um, and I I think he is truly genuinely appreciative that that people go to his restaurants and that they've helped him create this really empire.
• 19:32
  Sean McAllister: Oh my god.
• 19:33
  Sean McAllister: It is an empire, right?
• 19:34
  Sean McAllister: Jeez.
• 19:35
  Dayna Roselli: Because we just saw he was opening what?
• 19:36
  Dayna Roselli: Fish and chips and Times Square now.
• 19:38
  Sean McAllister: Time Square, yeah.
• 19:39
  Dayna Roselli: It's like, holy cow, Gordon.
• 19:40
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it's so wonderful.
• 19:41
  Dayna Roselli: And I know you were there actually when Hell's Kitchen opened, right?
• 19:44
  Dayna Roselli: Weren't you kind of like the MC of the event?
• 19:46
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 19:46
  Sean McAllister: I mean, I'd been over there talking with Chef is when they announced it.
• 19:52
  Sean McAllister: And then there when it opened, um, I think the first anniversary party I was there and hosted, and that's when uh we found out Lisa Vanderpump was gonna be opening her spot over at Caesars as well.
• 20:07
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 20:07
  Sean McAllister: She was in there, and um yeah, I mean, it's been crazy to see how packed it is, and still difficult to get a reservation there.
• 20:18
  Dayna Roselli: It is, it is.
• 20:19
  Dayna Roselli: It's listen, it's a hot, literally hot, hot place, Hell's Kitchen.
• 20:24
  Sean McAllister: And listen, if here's a little, you know, tip outside of our tip segment.
• 20:29
  Sean McAllister: Um, if you want the Hell's Kitchen experience, they are now open for lunch and have a lot of the dinner menus.
• 20:36
  Sean McAllister: So check it out earlier in the day.
• 20:39
  Dayna Roselli: And you know, it never seems like Gordon ages, like he's always got this energy about him.
• 20:44
  Dayna Roselli: He's fun, he's got personality, always has, but he just seems youthful all the time.
• 20:48
  Dayna Roselli: And you know, I've seen him at Omnian Nightclub.
• 20:51
  Sean McAllister: Oh, yeah.
• 20:51
  Dayna Roselli: He loves the clubs, he loves the clubs.
• 20:54
  Dayna Roselli: Um, apparently, he popped by barbershop cuts and cocktails over at the Cosmo.
• 21:00
  Dayna Roselli: And then during all this, he also went to see Adele at the Coliseum.
• 21:05
  Dayna Roselli: And he posted a video on his Instagram, the Gordon Graham, uh, which always has great videos, by the way.
• 21:12
  Dayna Roselli: Um, where Adele is singing, kind of walking down the aisle, spots him, goes over, and he got a little kiss on the cheek from Adele.
• 21:19
  Sean McAllister: That was so cute.
• 21:20
  Dayna Roselli: It really was.
• 21:21
  Dayna Roselli: We posted that um on our Instagram in our stories.
• 21:24
  Dayna Roselli: If you haven't seen it yet, go to Gordon's um Instagram and you'll see it there.
• 21:28
  Dayna Roselli: We talked about it on our LA segment yesterday as well.
• 21:31
  Dayna Roselli: So, anyway, congratulations to Gordon Ramsey.
• 21:34
  Dayna Roselli: I love that he embraces Las Vegas, loves it, and just keeps opening stuff all around the world.
• 21:38
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and I love that we get the taste, the first taste of a lot of his restaurants before they go and open in other cities.
• 21:46
  Sean McAllister: You know, Hell's Kitchen was first here in Las Vegas, the fish and chips restaurant, first here.
• 21:51
  Sean McAllister: You know, now there's several of those um all over the place.
• 21:56
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and he's got that new restaurant at Harris now, too.
• 21:58
  Sean McAllister: He does, which I need.
• 22:00
  Sean McAllister: To make a point to go and check that out.
• 22:03
  Sean McAllister: Definitely.
• 22:03
  Sean McAllister: Hey, how was the Pro Bowl, Dana Roselli?
• 22:06
  Dayna Roselli: It was good.
• 22:07
  Dayna Roselli: It was a last minute thing that happened in my life.
• 22:10
  Dayna Roselli: I didn't expect to go to the Pro Bowl.
• 22:12
  Dayna Roselli: I was getting my hair cut.
• 22:13
  Dayna Roselli: My friend texted me saying her friend couldn't go to the Pro Bowl and she had an extra ticket.
• 22:18
  Dayna Roselli: Do I want to go?
• 22:19
  Dayna Roselli: And I was like, heck yeah.
• 22:20
  Dayna Roselli: So anyway, loved it.
• 22:21
  Dayna Roselli: Like literally, and she bought a parking pass.
• 22:23
  Dayna Roselli: So it was awesome.
• 22:24
  Dayna Roselli: We literally like drove down the street and walked into the Pro Bowl.
• 22:27
  Dayna Roselli: And it is an amazing thing because you're there and you're like, every mascot from every team is there, every cheerleader from every team in the NFL, you know, players from all the different teams, celebrities, uh, kids, adults, uh, fans from all the it was just such a great experience and such a great vibe.
• 22:47
  Dayna Roselli: We sat in the second row.
• 22:48
  Dayna Roselli: She had great tickets.
• 22:49
  Dayna Roselli: And so in the first row, there were a lot of families with kids because the kids would hang over the railing and call out the players' names because they were trying to get as many autographs as they could.
• 23:00
  Dayna Roselli: And I must say, there were a bunch of players that just walked by and didn't ignite.
• 23:05
  Dayna Roselli: And we saw little kids start crying.
• 23:06
  Dayna Roselli: Oh no, no.
• 23:07
  Dayna Roselli: And me and my friend Robin were like, look at it.
• 23:09
  Dayna Roselli: Like we felt so bad.
• 23:10
  Dayna Roselli: But we're like, this is how much these players mean to these children.
• 23:15
  Dayna Roselli: You know, they are heroes to kids all over the world and country mostly.
• 23:21
  Dayna Roselli: But um, anyway, so it was, but they did get a lot of autographs.
• 23:25
  Dayna Roselli: They were really happy collecting.
• 23:27
  Dayna Roselli: But anyway, I just loved um, I loved the whole experience.
• 23:30
  Dayna Roselli: They did a flag football this year, three games.
• 23:32
  Dayna Roselli: It was a little different.
• 23:33
  Dayna Roselli: And then they did different experiences in the corner and drills, and I thought it was really fun.
• 23:39
  Dayna Roselli: Um, a couple people wrote me on Twitter saying, eh, I don't know if I liked it, this and that.
• 23:42
  Dayna Roselli: It's like, well, they're like, but maybe if I saw it in person, it would be really fun.
• 23:46
  Dayna Roselli: And so, um, but it was something different, and it was great because the players could play with helmets off.
• 23:52
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, some of them were wearing sunglasses, you know what I mean, when they were playing.
• 23:56
  Dayna Roselli: So it was really fun.
• 23:56
  Dayna Roselli: They could do a little, they have a little sense of style.
• 23:58
  Sean McAllister: It's a very casual atmosphere.
• 24:00
  Dayna Roselli: Very casual atmosphere.
• 24:02
  Dayna Roselli: One thing that I was a little frustrated at at Allegiant Stadium was I felt like the lines for food and drink were just really ridiculously long.
• 24:11
  Dayna Roselli: And I don't know.
• 24:12
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, I don't know how it works, but I just we were saying we just really had hoped that maybe there'd be more staff working.
• 24:19
  Dayna Roselli: They did have a lot of people working.
• 24:20
  Dayna Roselli: They were working as quick as they could, but every time you went up to kind of grab something, I mean, you had to lock in a good 45 minutes.
• 24:28
  Dayna Roselli: Wow.
• 24:28
  Dayna Roselli: Oh my god.
• 24:29
  Dayna Roselli: The lines were really long.
• 24:31
  Dayna Roselli: And you had a, you know, I anyway.
• 24:34
  Dayna Roselli: I ended up having a raider dog, which was delicious because I'm not a hot dog person, but I caved because that was the shortest line.
• 24:41
  Dayna Roselli: But so that was a little frustrating.
• 24:43
  Dayna Roselli: Although everything was great quality and people had fun, and I know you've got to anticipate lines.
• 24:48
  Dayna Roselli: I'm okay with a line, it's just it was so long.
• 24:51
  Sean McAllister: I feel like that is abnormally a long time to wait.
• 24:56
  Dayna Roselli: So anyway, I that was my only um negative out of the whole experience.
• 25:00
  Dayna Roselli: Loved it though.
• 25:01
  Dayna Roselli: Loved seeing everyone from all over visiting Las Vegas and over at Allegiance Stadium.
• 25:06
  Sean McAllister: Uh, we have some music news and some classic rock bands.
• 25:10
  Dayna Roselli: I know.
• 25:11
  Dayna Roselli: I was like, ooh, it's like it's so interesting.
• 25:13
  Dayna Roselli: Everyone's kind of coming back for these tours.
• 25:15
  Dayna Roselli: They are.
• 25:16
  Dayna Roselli: Duran Duran is coming to T-Mobile Arena.
• 25:19
  Dayna Roselli: I love Duran Duran.
• 25:21
  Dayna Roselli: They recently did some shows, was it at the Win?
• 25:23
  Dayna Roselli: Some smaller intimate shows.
• 25:24
  Dayna Roselli: I think it was at the Win.
• 25:26
  Dayna Roselli: Um, but they're doing a big tour now and they're gonna be at T Mobile Arena.
• 25:29
  Dayna Roselli: And then Depeche Mode's coming to T Mobile Arena as well.
• 25:32
  Dayna Roselli: So I thought, wow, two announcements in one week, Depeche Mode and Duran Duran.
• 25:37
  Sean McAllister: I mean, that's that's fun.
• 25:38
  Sean McAllister: Those that is like classic 80s rock.
• 25:44
  Sean McAllister: Yep.
• 25:45
  Sean McAllister: And uh that whole era of music is just it's so good.
• 25:52
  Sean McAllister: It is and there's nothing else like it.
• 25:55
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 25:56
  Dayna Roselli: And when you go to these shows, if you're a fan, you know every song, which makes it so fun, you know, and you get to relive and reminisce and it's just a wonderful experience.
• 26:06
  Dayna Roselli: So I'm glad they're doing arena shows and they're really mixing it up and um something to look forward to.
• 26:12
  Dayna Roselli: I believe Duranda Ran is coming in August and Depeche Mode, March.
• 26:16
  Dayna Roselli: Don't quote me on that.
• 26:17
  Dayna Roselli: We just did it in our radio entertainment report, and I've already blanked, but I believe Depeche Mode is like March 30th or something.
• 26:23
  Dayna Roselli: So get your tickets now if you want to go see Duranda Ran or Depeche Mode.
• 26:28
  Sean McAllister: That'll be fun.
• 26:29
  Sean McAllister: I bet there will be a lot of people uh dressing the part when they show up to those shows too.
• 26:34
  Dayna Roselli: Definitely.
• 26:35
  Dayna Roselli: Hey, what how long what's our time right now for the 26th?
• 26:41
  Dayna Roselli: Because I was gonna ask you a whole other topic, but maybe I just ask you really quick.
• 26:44
  Dayna Roselli: You watched Pink and Kelly Clarkson on the Kelly Clarkson show, and you had an idea.
• 26:50
  Dayna Roselli: This is not planned in the podcast, but this is our conversation and it's timely because it happened this week.
• 26:55
  Sean McAllister: So uh Pink went on the Kelly Clarkson show and to talk about her new album.
• 27:01
  Sean McAllister: They did kind of a storyteller's uh setup where you know Kelly would ask Pink some questions about you know her family, life, music, whatever, and it would lead into the theme of a song that they dueted, they dueted all of Pink's uh snippets of the songs that she did during this interview.
• 27:22
  Sean McAllister: It was a it was a great setup, but I was like, oh my god, if these two did a residency together where there's a chunk of Pink doing solo stuff, a chunk of Kelly Clarkson doing solo stuff, but then moments where they come together and do this duet thing, I I feel like it would be an only in Vegas kind of show, an only in Vegas kind of experience.
• 27:51
  Sean McAllister: There have been talks about each of them individually doing Las Vegas residencies for years.
• 27:58
  Sean McAllister: Kelly was actually signed up to do a residency at Planet Hollywood, but yeah, uh the pandemic derailed things, whatever.
• 28:05
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, that never happened, and then she got busy with her talk show that took off, so timing wasn't right.
• 28:10
  Dayna Roselli: I have a proposal.
• 28:11
  Dayna Roselli: Uh, Kelly can come play Vegas, and then you and I can go take over her talk show for a while.
• 28:17
  Dayna Roselli: Oh, we can sit in.
• 28:18
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, we can sit in.
• 28:19
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 28:19
  Dayna Roselli: We can switch places with Kelly, right?
• 28:22
  SPEAKER_01: Perfect.
• 28:23
  Dayna Roselli: But no, that would be a great show, and I think I think um it would bring out both of their fans, groups of fans, which I feel like they have a lot of crossover because they're similar, you know.
• 28:35
  Dayna Roselli: Um, it would be a great show.
• 28:37
  Dayna Roselli: So, Sean, you heard it here first from Sean McAllister, Kelly Clarkson in Pink, the residency.
• 28:43
  Sean McAllister: It's one of those things.
• 28:45
  Sean McAllister: If you put it on the vision board, it will happen.
• 28:47
  Sean McAllister: It may happen.
• 28:48
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, it will happen.
• 28:50
  Sean McAllister: I shouldn't say it may happen.
• 28:51
  Sean McAllister: It will happen if it's up there.
• 28:53
  Sean McAllister: So we're putting it out in the universe.
• 28:55
  Sean McAllister: Let's make that happen.
• 28:56
  Dayna Roselli: Let's do it.
• 28:57
  Dayna Roselli: Um, quick other restaurant note, Echo and Rig, that is so popular up at Tivoli Village in northwest Las Vegas, is coming to Henderson.
• 29:08
  Dayna Roselli: So if you love this restaurant, it's uh Butcher and Steakhouse.
• 29:11
  Dayna Roselli: It's been here for years at Tivoli.
• 29:13
  Dayna Roselli: They are opening one at the district at Green Valley Ranch.
• 29:17
  Dayna Roselli: It is open now.
• 29:19
  Dayna Roselli: Um, check it out.
• 29:20
  Dayna Roselli: It's in the old elephant bar spot that used to be there if you've ever been to the district.
• 29:24
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, that's a great location.
• 29:26
  Sean McAllister: It's a a really good-sized bar and dining room area, and then they have a whole patio that kind of wraps around the front and side of the building.
• 29:36
  Sean McAllister: So that is a great spot.
• 29:39
  Sean McAllister: So excited to see a really, you know, good quality restaurant like Echo and Rig going in there.
• 29:46
  Sean McAllister: I think it's gonna do great.
• 29:47
  Dayna Roselli: And I've been to Echo and Rig, but also whenever I walk by Echo and Rig, it's always bustling.
• 29:52
  Sean McAllister: Always.
• 29:53
  Dayna Roselli: They do a brunch, they do it all.
• 29:54
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 29:55
  Dayna Roselli: So uh welcome to Henderson.
• 29:58
  Dayna Roselli: All right, wanna do some tips?
• 29:59
  Dayna Roselli: Let's do it.
• 30:05
  Dayna Roselli: Well, I was at my friend Libby's birthday party.
• 30:08
  Dayna Roselli: She just turned 75.
• 30:09
  Sean McAllister: Happy birthday, Libby.
• 30:12
  Dayna Roselli: She has been a huge supporter through the years.
• 30:14
  Dayna Roselli: Uh watch us on TV.
• 30:17
  Dayna Roselli: She supports us on social media.
• 30:19
  Dayna Roselli: She's a fun lady.
• 30:20
  Dayna Roselli: She supports charities all around Las Vegas and live music.
• 30:25
  Dayna Roselli: She's a champion for live shows and being a part of everything here in Las Vegas.
• 30:31
  Dayna Roselli: Everyone loves Libby.
• 30:32
  Dayna Roselli: And she was talking about this restaurant that she loves to go to at South Point.
• 30:38
  Dayna Roselli: And then a bunch of us started talking.
• 30:40
  Dayna Roselli: And uh our friend Vince works over at Fox Five, he was there and he said, Oh, yeah, he loves this restaurant at South Point too.
• 30:47
  Dayna Roselli: So I was like, well, where do I need to go to this restaurant?
• 30:49
  Dayna Roselli: And it's called Primarily Prime Rib.
• 30:52
  Dayna Roselli: I've never been.
• 30:54
  Dayna Roselli: And so I looked it up, and then I also noticed they had this great Valentine's special, but they raved about the prime rib here, and they say it's a great restaurant.
• 31:02
  Sean McAllister: It really is.
• 31:03
  Sean McAllister: And just like the the name of the restaurant says, it's it is primarily prime rib.
• 31:09
  Dayna Roselli: Perfect.
• 31:09
  Sean McAllister: So if you go there wanting a wide variety of other things, that probably isn't the best spot.
• 31:15
  Dayna Roselli: They do, yeah, they do have other things on the menu, but right, primarily.
• 31:19
  Dayna Roselli: Primarily it's prime rib.
• 31:21
  Dayna Roselli: Prime rib.
• 31:23
  Dayna Roselli: But they were saying it's an excellent restaurant and it's affordable.
• 31:26
  Dayna Roselli: I think I glanced the 10-ounce prime rib regularly is like$22 and some cents.
• 31:31
  Dayna Roselli: Great deal.
• 31:32
  Dayna Roselli: Um, but listen to this Valentine's special, okay?
• 31:36
  Dayna Roselli: And this is taking place February 14th to the 16th.
• 31:39
  Dayna Roselli: So even if you're listening to this on Valentine's Day, you've actually got a couple days to take advantage of this deal.
• 31:45
  Dayna Roselli: Um and it starts at 4 p.m.
• 31:47
  Dayna Roselli: It's down there at the South Point, and it is$39 per person.
• 31:52
  Dayna Roselli: And it includes, I'm not gonna run through every single thing, but it includes a first course, second course, third course, and then a wine.
• 32:00
  Dayna Roselli: So the first course is um an appetizer like a crab and avocado toast, or um a salad of love, or a cream of asparagus soup.
• 32:12
  Dayna Roselli: So the lot of different varieties.
• 32:14
  Dayna Roselli: You pick one.
• 32:15
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 32:16
  Dayna Roselli: Second course, roast prime rib of beef, 10 ounce, slowly roasted, or a grilled Pacific swordfish, lightly seasoned with Cajun spices.
• 32:28
  Dayna Roselli: Then also uh you can get this chicken, salt and boca, and they have a bunch of other things you can choose from.
• 32:35
  Dayna Roselli: Great sides with all this, but too, by the way.
• 32:38
  Dayna Roselli: Then the third course is red velvet cheesecake bites, red velvet cheesecake, or Kahlua whipped cream and chocolate shavings, or chocolate tulip cup and white chocolate mousse.
• 32:48
  Dayna Roselli: Uh a whole list, so a huge variety, and then you can pick from a white or red wine.
• 32:53
  Sean McAllister: Um which is great.
• 32:56
  Sean McAllister: It's just if the wine is included in this too, it's a great deal.
• 33:00
  Dayna Roselli: 39 bucks, Sean.
• 33:02
  Dayna Roselli: Normally the standalone prime rib is$22.
• 33:05
  Dayna Roselli: So$39, you're getting also a first course, a third course, and wine.
• 33:10
  Sean McAllister: And and looking at everything that is available uh for this for that price, I mean, it's it's ridiculous.
• 33:18
  Sean McAllister: It is.
• 33:18
  Sean McAllister: That's amazing.
• 33:19
  Dayna Roselli: So, anyway, highly recommended by a lot of folks.
• 33:22
  Dayna Roselli: I haven't tried it personally.
• 33:23
  Dayna Roselli: Um, but you know, if you're down there in the southern part of town or you are staying on the strip and you want to take a little drive down to the South Point, great hotel casino with lots of great restaurants inside here.
• 33:34
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, they do.
• 33:35
  Sean McAllister: They have all of their restaurants really are fantastic.
• 33:38
  Sean McAllister: Hey, uh, if you are looking for any other Valentine's Day activities uh down on or near the strip, there we do have some really great ideas and some unique things that you don't find in other cities.
• 33:56
  Dayna Roselli: Yep, we really do.
• 33:58
  Dayna Roselli: And sometimes we forget.
• 33:59
  Dayna Roselli: They're here, first of all, year round.
• 34:01
  Dayna Roselli: So there's that.
• 34:02
  Dayna Roselli: But when you think of Valentine's Day, like what's geared toward that?
• 34:05
  Dayna Roselli: What would be appropriate?
• 34:06
  Dayna Roselli: What would be romantic, what would be different or cool?
• 34:08
  Dayna Roselli: Um, we just had a couple quick hit ideas that we thought, hey, in case you forgot, we have gondola rides at the Venetian and singing gondoliers.
• 34:18
  Dayna Roselli: It's so perfect, right?
• 34:20
  Sean McAllister: It is.
• 34:21
  Sean McAllister: We see people all the time floating around there.
• 34:24
  Sean McAllister: I know there are, I mean, you can't even count the number of proposals that have happened on those gondola rides.
• 34:30
  Sean McAllister: And it really is uh a pretty little journey through those Venetian canals.
• 34:36
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and some of them, oh, there's one, I think there's like one version that goes outside, right?
• 34:40
  Dayna Roselli: And then one that kind of stays indoor in the canal.
• 34:43
  Dayna Roselli: So so pretty.
• 34:44
  Dayna Roselli: Um, it's really fun.
• 34:45
  Dayna Roselli: If you've never actually taken the gondola ride, you might want to do that.
• 34:49
  Dayna Roselli: Or you may want to go over to the Eiffel Tower at Paris.
• 34:54
  Dayna Roselli: Proposals happen all the time.
• 34:56
  SPEAKER_03: They sure do.
• 34:57
  Dayna Roselli: Outside of the Eiffel Tower, in the Eiffel Tower, at the top of the Eiffel Tower, and they have a fantastic restaurant at the top.
• 35:04
  Dayna Roselli: It's pricey, but let me tell you, it is worth it.
• 35:06
  Sean McAllister: And you can't beat that view, Michael.
• 35:08
  Dayna Roselli: You cannot it, and I've always thought, like, I just want to go up there and sit at the bar.
• 35:12
  Dayna Roselli: There's so many things I still want to do.
• 35:14
  Dayna Roselli: And I don't know if you I'm assuming you can, but it's a great bar right there in the center of the restaurant.
• 35:19
  Sean McAllister: It really is.
• 35:20
  Sean McAllister: I was up there for a rehearsal for a rehearsal dinner for a friend's wedding.
• 35:25
  Sean McAllister: Um, and that is uh view up there is phenomenal.
• 35:29
  Sean McAllister: And when uh it goes dark, when it's nighttime, there's now an Eiffel Tower like light show that happens every half hour, I believe.
• 35:42
  Dayna Roselli: You'll find out when you go.
• 35:43
  Sean McAllister: You can't miss it when it's happening.
• 35:46
  Dayna Roselli: Then um, some restaurants that look at the Bellagio fountains.
• 35:51
  Dayna Roselli: We always talk about Monamiga B at Paris, it's across the street, but Lago is a great restaurant too, inside the Bellagio.
• 35:58
  Dayna Roselli: And the great part is they have a patio and an indoor dining room, and the indoor dining room has all um windows so you can see the fountains even though you're sitting inside.
• 36:08
  Dayna Roselli: And I highly recommend it.
• 36:09
  Dayna Roselli: I've always loved the food there.
• 36:10
  Dayna Roselli: They've just kind of done a revamp on the menu and have some new things.
• 36:15
  Dayna Roselli: So check out Lago.
• 36:17
  Dayna Roselli: It's a stunning restaurant, and then Spago, which used to be at Caesars Palace, has been at Bellagio now for a while.
• 36:24
  Dayna Roselli: That too has a patio and an indoor, but you have to sit on the patio to see the fountains, and it's kind of first come, first serve.
• 36:32
  Dayna Roselli: So get there early or make a reservation.
• 36:35
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know how exactly it works, but all great spots to see the fountains.
• 36:38
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, I've always loved that rest uh location where uh spago is now.
• 36:44
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 36:45
  Sean McAllister: It was it was uh Olives by Todd English, yeah.
• 36:49
  Sean McAllister: Which is now moved over to Virgin Hotels.
• 36:53
  Dayna Roselli: Okay, right, right, right.
• 36:54
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, yeah.
• 36:55
  Dayna Roselli: So another um spot I was just gonna recommend was Hugo's Cellar.
• 36:58
  Dayna Roselli: I've been there a few times.
• 37:00
  Dayna Roselli: Oh my gosh, in downtown Las Vegas.
• 37:03
  Dayna Roselli: And everyone that goes gets a rose, and that's always a good little touch.
• 37:07
  Dayna Roselli: Their tableside Caesar salad is really good.
• 37:11
  Dayna Roselli: Great menu.
• 37:12
  Dayna Roselli: It's classic, it's old school if you're looking for something like that.
• 37:15
  Sean McAllister: That is one place I have walked by, I don't know how many times, but I've never actually gone down to have a meal there.
• 37:21
  Dayna Roselli: Oh my gosh, you have to go.
• 37:23
  Dayna Roselli: Uh this is a good one.
• 37:24
  Dayna Roselli: Maybe maybe on Valentine's Day.
• 37:26
  Dayna Roselli: Maybe on Valentine's Day.
• 37:28
  Dayna Roselli: It's um at the bottom of the uh four queens, just so you know.
• 37:32
  Dayna Roselli: You kind of go down.
• 37:33
  Dayna Roselli: It's like underneath the four queens.
• 37:35
  Dayna Roselli: But been there forever.
• 37:36
  Dayna Roselli: I've been there a few times, it's always good.
• 37:38
  Dayna Roselli: And the staff, and I know you'll like this, they're great because they've been there a long time.
• 37:43
  Dayna Roselli: They have stories to tell, and it's just an overall fun experience.
• 37:48
  Sean McAllister: I love that.
• 37:49
  Dayna Roselli: For all of this, by the way, go to the Vegas Near Me app and you can see menus right in the app.
• 37:56
  Dayna Roselli: Click on it, the hours, you can make a reservation, all that.
• 37:58
  Dayna Roselli: We keep telling you about the app.
• 38:00
  Dayna Roselli: They have been gracious enough to sponsor the podcast, but we've learned all about it.
• 38:04
  Dayna Roselli: We both have it on our phones.
• 38:05
  Dayna Roselli: Click the link in our show notes and you can download it for free.
• 38:09
  Sean McAllister: And something that's been happening uh pretty recently, I've been getting emails from family and friends who say, Hey, I'm coming to town.
• 38:19
  Sean McAllister: What should I do?
• 38:21
  Sean McAllister: And I say, you know what?
• 38:23
  Sean McAllister: Download Vegas near me because anything that you can think about doing is on there.
• 38:31
  Sean McAllister: And listen, if you ask me, I'm just gonna have to go look things up.
• 38:36
  Sean McAllister: Like, yeah, I know a lot off the top of my head, right?
• 38:39
  Sean McAllister: But to be like thoughtful about what kind of recommendations you're giving, you know, and listen.
• 38:46
  Dayna Roselli: And it's easy to just unload it on the app.
• 38:49
  Sean McAllister: It is, and it's like helps us out.
• 38:51
  Sean McAllister: Thank you, Vegas.
• 38:52
  Sean McAllister: There's different categories.
• 38:54
  Sean McAllister: So, yes, Vegas near me, we owe you a big thank you.
• 39:00
  Dayna Roselli: Use our link and download it, and then we promise once you search around, you won't be able to stop.
• 39:05
  Dayna Roselli: So there you go.
• 39:06
  Dayna Roselli: Takes the pressure off of us.
• 39:08
  Dayna Roselli: Um, there's a lot of pressure too when people re ask you to recommend things because there's so many things that we've been to and done and things that we love.
• 39:16
  Dayna Roselli: And it takes a minute to think like to curate this plan specifically for the people that are at all.
• 39:21
  Sean McAllister: And that's the thing is you want it to be something that they'll actually enjoy.
• 39:25
  Sean McAllister: Mm-hmm.
• 39:26
  Sean McAllister: So true.
• 39:28
  Dayna Roselli: So, anyway, all right, that's it for episode 155.

  Dayna Roselli: What are we at?
• 39:31
  Dayna Roselli: How many minutes?
• 39:32
  Sean McAllister: We're at 40 minutes and 22 seconds.
• 39:35
  Dayna Roselli: We went over the 37.
• 39:36
  Dayna Roselli: All right, maybe I'll edit a couple things out and get it down to 37.
• 39:39
  Dayna Roselli: We'll see.
• 39:40
  Dayna Roselli: Maybe not.
• 39:41
  Dayna Roselli: Maybe.
• 39:41
  Dayna Roselli: Anyway, we hope you like the longer podcast.
