  Dayna Roselli: So we got a bunch of people listening from over there.

  Dayna Roselli: Something about us is we've been in in TV broadcasting for a very long time and a large portion of our careers in Las Vegas.
• 3:53
  Dayna Roselli: We have interviewed a lot of people, we do a lot of things, we know a lot of people.
• 3:58
  Dayna Roselli: And so when we decided to do this podcast, we thought, gosh, we have so much knowledge and so much experience here and continue to live here, and it's a part of our lifestyle.
• 4:10
  Dayna Roselli: Let's share some of that with the world.
• 4:11
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and obviously, Las Vegas is uh one of the top tourist destinations in the entire world, obviously here in the US too.
• 4:21
  Sean McAllister: So it is of interest.
• 4:22
  Sean McAllister: The the entertainment that's coming here, the hotel experiences, uh, the attractions that you can take part in while you're here in Las Vegas, and some interesting tidbits from stuff outside of the Las Vegas Strip Corridor, too.
• 4:39
  Dayna Roselli: So now we do so many things, but anything in the media world.

  Dayna Roselli: Um, but we also have social media across the board for our company, and our website is insightfulmediaco.com.
• 4:58
  Dayna Roselli: Let's move on to what I did last week.
• 5:00
  Dayna Roselli: I had a little bit of a jury duty week, not a day, a week, because I actually got put on a trial.
• 5:08
  Dayna Roselli: I was serving on a civil trial here in Las Vegas.
• 5:12
  Sean McAllister: So you were like juror number three?
• 5:14
  Dayna Roselli: That was juror number nine.
• 5:15
  Sean McAllister: Number nine, okay.
• 5:18
  Dayna Roselli: Um, it was very interesting.
• 5:20
  Dayna Roselli: I'm not going to get into the details.
• 5:21
  Dayna Roselli: Some of it, I know that you can talk about it, but some of it I almost feel like is a little private.
• 5:25
  Dayna Roselli: Uh just because I don't know.
• 5:27
  Dayna Roselli: It was a certain case between two people, and I don't think anyone needs to hear about their personal business.
• 5:32
  Dayna Roselli: But it was a civil trial.
• 5:34
  Dayna Roselli: It did involve some injury and an accident and a lot of witness testimony, experts flown in from out of town.
• 5:42
  Dayna Roselli: Extremely interesting to hear both sides of a story, and in many ways have the honor of being part of coming up with the final decision in that case.
• 5:56
  Dayna Roselli: It's it's a lot of pressure, and you take that, you know.
• 6:00
  Dayna Roselli: For me especially, I just, you know, I took that very seriously.
• 6:03
  Sean McAllister: I and I know I've served on one jury before and, you know, made it all the way through to the end until you know something happened at the end.
• 6:10
  Sean McAllister: But this was your first time on jury duty, wasn't it?
• 6:13
  Sean McAllister: First time serving, yes.
• 6:15
  Dayna Roselli: I've been on jury, I get picked all the time, but I never make it.
• 6:19
  Sean McAllister: Oh, you never make it into the jury box.
• 6:21
  Dayna Roselli: No, and it was different this time too.
• 6:23
  Dayna Roselli: In the past, I filled out like a form about the like we we got brought in and we had to got like a packet of what the case was about.
• 6:31
  Dayna Roselli: And do you know any of these people, this and that?
• 6:34
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and I remember in a few instances I did know people that were testifying and I knew I would be, you know, let go.
• 6:39
  Dayna Roselli: Um, but this time we got moved right into a courtroom and were asked one-on-one, face to face, with a group of people and the attorneys representing the plaintiff and the defendant questions.
• 6:51
  Dayna Roselli: And then they kept weeding out, weeding out, you know, until it got to, and I kept getting moved over.
• 6:56
  Dayna Roselli: And I was like, oh boy, I'm gonna get chosen to be on this trial.
• 7:01
  Dayna Roselli: Anyway, I did.
• 7:02
  Dayna Roselli: And listen, I think everyone likes a good journalist, right?
• 7:04
  Sean McAllister: We listen to the facts, it's true and ask a lot of questions.
• 7:08
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 7:08
  Dayna Roselli: Um, I must say though, you know, I enjoyed meeting new people.
• 7:12
  Dayna Roselli: You're with this this jury for a week and you get to know them, and you get to know new people that may not we we run we know a lot of people, but we run in a lot of the same circles.
• 7:24
  Dayna Roselli: We know the same people, we meet people in our industry, we meet people who do so.
• 7:29
  Dayna Roselli: It was so nice to be with a variety of people who do different things for a week and get to know them.
• 7:34
  Dayna Roselli: So made some friends off of that.
• 7:36
  Dayna Roselli: And Sean, I got my check yesterday.
• 7:38
  Dayna Roselli: Oh, and and it was$160.
• 7:41
  Dayna Roselli: Wow.
• 7:42
  Dayna Roselli: You get$40 a day.
• 7:44
  Dayna Roselli: And I got a little emotional.
• 7:45
  Dayna Roselli: It was a little letter in there saying thanking, you know, thanking me for being a part of the process that everyone has a due right to take advantage of.
• 7:56
  Dayna Roselli: So I was like, oh, it made me feel good.
• 7:58
  Sean McAllister: Well, here's the thing, you know what?
• 8:01
  Sean McAllister: As much as it can be a pain and a time suck to serve on jury and go down, even if you're called for jury and you never make it to trial, if you were on the flip side of it, if you were the plaintiff or defendant, like you really hope that the people who are sitting there listening to your case are going to take it seriously, are going to listen, and are are going to, you know, act fairly in their decision.
• 8:31
  Sean McAllister: So, you know, when you think of it like that, it is a big responsibility to go and sit in that box.
• 8:37
  Dayna Roselli: It is.
• 8:37
  Dayna Roselli: And they treat you, you're right.
• 8:39
  Dayna Roselli: And the way that they treat you almost makes you feel that way even more than you should.
• 8:44
  Dayna Roselli: You know, it's like all rise for the jury.
• 8:46
  Dayna Roselli: It's like, oh my gosh, like what?
• 8:48
  Sean McAllister: Like And now Dana expects everybody to stand up when she walks into a room.
• 8:54
  Dayna Roselli: Exactly.
• 8:56
  Dayna Roselli: So I enjoyed it.
• 8:57
  Dayna Roselli: I won't go on and on because I know we've got to move on, but um, some people were asking, like, where have you been on social media and stuff?
• 9:02
  Dayna Roselli: So that's where I was uh serving on jury duty.
• 9:06
  Dayna Roselli: Um, but now that I'm out of jury duty, we had a birthday to celebrate this week.
• 9:10
  Dayna Roselli: It was Sean's birthday.
• 9:11
  Dayna Roselli: Happy birthday, Sean.
• 9:12
  Sean McAllister: Thank you very much.
• 9:14
  Dayna Roselli: And we decided to celebrate at a place that I recommended called Brew Dog.
• 9:18
  Dayna Roselli: Now they had an opening a while ago.
• 9:21
  Dayna Roselli: You couldn't make it, but I went.
• 9:22
  Sean McAllister: Yep.
• 9:23
  Dayna Roselli: And I was raving about it.
• 9:24
  Dayna Roselli: And I said, the patio is 360 degrees, they've got fire pits going, it's beautiful, the food was good, the the beer was good.
• 9:32
  Dayna Roselli: I know you love a good brewery.
• 9:34
  Sean McAllister: I do love a good brewery.
• 9:36
  Sean McAllister: So And this is a three-level brew house and restaurant.
• 9:42
  Sean McAllister: And after you know, hearing everything, I was excited.
• 9:44
  Sean McAllister: I was like, yeah, let's do this.
• 9:46
  Sean McAllister: I like this idea.
• 9:48
  Dayna Roselli: And I also recommended it on the podcast.
• 9:50
  Dayna Roselli: So whenever I recommend something because I have a good experience, and I tell people to go there, I really feel obligated to get on here and tell you if I've had a bad experience.
• 10:00
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and uh bad is a strong word.
• 10:03
  Dayna Roselli: Uh was a little disappointed this time when we went to brewdog.
• 10:06
  Dayna Roselli: Let's put it that way.
• 10:07
  Dayna Roselli: I'm gonna run down just some of the reasons.
• 10:09
  Dayna Roselli: We called to reserve a table because we had a bunch of us.
• 10:13
  Dayna Roselli: Um, in that reservation, we were never told the patio was bought out for the evening.
• 10:18
  Sean McAllister: So we Which is like the starring attraction of the establishment.
• 10:23
  Sean McAllister: And if you even go to their website, the only pictures that they have scrolling across the top are of the patio.
• 10:29
  Sean McAllister: Exactly.
• 10:30
  Dayna Roselli: And, you know, for locals, it's a fee to get on.
• 10:33
  Dayna Roselli: This is a difficult place to get to, I'll be honest.
• 10:36
  Dayna Roselli: You've got to find that back lot that only allows a few cars.
• 10:41
  Dayna Roselli: And if not, you've got to park at a strip casino garage and walk, or you can park at the showcase mall parking garage.
• 10:48
  Dayna Roselli: There's a fee.
• 10:49
  Dayna Roselli: I think it was$14.99.
• 10:51
  Dayna Roselli: There was also some service fee to park there, uh, kind of get down to the ground floor, walk out, find it.
• 10:59
  Dayna Roselli: So it's not easy to get to.
• 11:01
  Dayna Roselli: So we made the effort for the patio vibe so that we could celebrate your birthday and make it special and do, you know, something different, very Vegasy.
• 11:11
  Dayna Roselli: We did not get that because we were told the patio was closed, we could not go up there at all.
• 11:16
  Dayna Roselli: But that was never said when we called to make the reservation.
• 11:20
  Dayna Roselli: Then when we went to check out, we were told on our little app that to pay for the parking garage, you can get your you know, like vet your parking ticket validated if you, you know, kind of like ate nearby or utilized.
• 11:32
  Dayna Roselli: And so um we asked, and we so we paid the bill, and then we asked, can we get our parking validated?
• 11:37
  Dayna Roselli: They're like, Oh, you should you could have told your waiter and they would have given you 10% off your bill if you paid for parking.
• 11:44
  Dayna Roselli: And I said, Well, we didn't know that.
• 11:46
  Dayna Roselli: And she's like, sorry.
• 11:48
  Dayna Roselli: So they didn't care.
• 11:50
  Dayna Roselli: Um, they weren't the waiter was fine, but he was kind of, I was like, Oh, so we can't go up to the pet.
• 11:56
  Dayna Roselli: He's like, I don't know.
• 11:56
  Dayna Roselli: You'll have to it just wasn't like a great experience overall.
• 12:02
  Dayna Roselli: And I was disappointed because I tell people to go there, and so I wanted to say, hey, here's what you need to do if you want to expect the first evening that I told you about.
• 12:13
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 12:14
  Sean McAllister: Well, I and I think each of those is is a fair critique.
• 12:19
  Dayna Roselli: Very fair.
• 12:20
  Sean McAllister: Absolutely.
• 12:20
  Sean McAllister: And if you want uh a local audience to you know patronize your establishment, you you do need to make it easy for them.
• 12:31
  Sean McAllister: You do and let them know the things that are available, especially when it comes to like discounts and parking.
• 12:38
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 12:39
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, listen, the the food is good there, the beer is good, it's a great atmosphere, the three levels are nice, but if you're going there for that experience, um, I guess just what what we recommend is if you call to reserve first of all, do call, reserve a table and uh or an area and ask if the patio will be open for the evening.
• 13:00
  Dayna Roselli: If you park nearby and you paid to park, tell your waiter before you cash out the check, and apparently you can get 10% off.
• 13:09
  Sean McAllister: All right.
• 13:10
  Sean McAllister: Well, with all that said, we were in good company and I had a great time.
• 13:14
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it was fun.
• 13:15
  Dayna Roselli: No, we did have a nice time, and that's the thing.
• 13:17
  Dayna Roselli: In the end, we made the best of it because we celebrated Sean.
• 13:20
  Dayna Roselli: We had great conversation and a lot of laughs.
• 13:24
  Dayna Roselli: So that's all that matters in the end.
• 13:25
  Dayna Roselli: But really would have loved to sit on that patio.
• 13:30
  Dayna Roselli: While we were there, um, so anyway, at the end, we did kind of sneak up to the patio just so I could show you what it looked like from up there.
• 13:38
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and I snapped a quick picture of the polo towers behind me.
• 13:42
  Dayna Roselli: And I posted something online that said, Hey, you know, it's it's one tower that I hasn't been here since I moved here, since I moved here in 2004, is the polo towers.
• 13:52
  Dayna Roselli: I've never, being so such a Vegas cheerleader and person who's been everywhere, I've never been inside the polo towers.
• 13:59
  Dayna Roselli: Like, what's it like?
• 14:00
  Dayna Roselli: And it created this whole conversation.
• 14:03
  Sean McAllister: Well, and apparently, this was uh in a time before either of us lived in Las Vegas.
• 14:09
  Sean McAllister: The Polo Towers was like the place to be.
• 14:13
  Sean McAllister: Before all these mega resorts were built up, apparently Polo Towers was one of the tallest buildings on Las Vegas Boulevard.
• 14:24
  Sean McAllister: And because of this kind of glass rotunda, this round glass thing that juts out of the front where there's a lounge, it was one of the best views in Las Vegas for years.
• 14:38
  Dayna Roselli: I know, and you can see it, and I always wondered.
• 14:41
  Dayna Roselli: And so, like everyone was commenting saying, Hey, I used to go to if we had a special event, we would go there.
• 14:46
  Dayna Roselli: Um we went there after, you know, or we had our like holiday party there, or oh my gosh, I used to go up there with friends for drinks.
• 14:55
  Dayna Roselli: One girl wrote that the people she would meet in her AOL chat rooms, she would meet up there at the lounge at the polo towers.
• 15:03
  Sean McAllister: That's not a sign of the times.
• 15:04
  Sean McAllister: I don't know what is.
• 15:06
  Dayna Roselli: But and then people were saying the rooftop pool was amazing, and that at one point it was a club, a nightclub called Hush.
• 15:12
  Dayna Roselli: They were saying, like, before there was Pure Nightclub and Omnia, there was Hush.
• 15:16
  Dayna Roselli: And I'm like, really?
• 15:18
  Dayna Roselli: So it was interesting to read all about that.
• 15:20
  Dayna Roselli: You and I finally like dug in a little bit and we noticed it's a timeshare now, right?
• 15:25
  Dayna Roselli: A Hilton timeshare?
• 15:26
  Sean McAllister: I believe so, yeah.
• 15:27
  Dayna Roselli: And people were saying that um they don't think the lounge is open to the public anymore, even if it still exists.
• 15:32
  Dayna Roselli: So it's not something you can go to.
• 15:33
  Dayna Roselli: But I'm like, man, bring it back.
• 15:35
  Dayna Roselli: Bring back Hush, bring back the polo lounge.
• 15:37
  Sean McAllister: It sounds great.
• 15:39
  Sean McAllister: And one person said that that uh lounge they thought might have even been converted into a meeting room.
• 15:45
  Sean McAllister: It's like, no, when you have a great place like that, yeah, you gotta keep it.
• 15:50
  Dayna Roselli: I know.
• 15:51
  Dayna Roselli: I wonder, and I just, you know what I really wondered is that we have so many places in Las Vegas where we talk about the history.
• 15:57
  Dayna Roselli: Uh, remember this, remember that, and this person and that.
• 16:00
  Dayna Roselli: And I just feel like no one really ever talks about the toll polo towers until I asked.
• 16:05
  Sean McAllister: Well, and here's the thing if anybody is listening and you went there and have any pictures from inside, yeah, you know, I would love to see that because even the things that we, you know, when we were looking online, I could find no pictures from back then.
• 16:23
  Sean McAllister: Like there were some current, more current pictures, but nothing of like the nightclub days or anything.
• 16:30
  Sean McAllister: And I mean, really, did anybody really take cameras out to the club?
• 16:34
  Dayna Roselli: Oh, you're right.
• 16:34
  Dayna Roselli: Back in the day, nobody had phones or anything.
• 16:36
  Dayna Roselli: So when you went out like at night, there were like if there was a show or event or something like that.
• 16:41
  Sean McAllister: Right, but you wouldn't normally just like throw your disposable camera in, or like maybe if you had one of those digital cameras, but even that's a stretch.
• 16:50
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 16:51
  Dayna Roselli: Um, I know when we were talking, uh, somebody here, uh yeah, I thought this was a good comment.
• 16:56
  Dayna Roselli: This is from Doug Brawley.
• 16:57
  Dayna Roselli: He said, I worked as a bellman and a valet and a parking attendant back in 1995.
• 17:01
  Dayna Roselli: He said it was mainly a timeshare back then and monthly residence, but he said actor George Hamilton lived there.
• 17:08
  Sean McAllister: Oh.
• 17:08
  Dayna Roselli: And he said he met Robbie Kneevel there as well.
• 17:11
  Dayna Roselli: Huh?
• 17:11
  Dayna Roselli: Isn't that interesting?
• 17:12
  Dayna Roselli: He said the rooms had kitchenettes and a living room and up to three bedrooms.
• 17:15
  Dayna Roselli: It was a nice place.
• 17:16
  Dayna Roselli: Used to be a Diamond Resort's property run by the Klubex, but um, like we mentioned now, it looks like it's changed hands to Hilton.
• 17:24
  Dayna Roselli: So that's our update on the polo towers.
• 17:27
  Dayna Roselli: Interesting.
• 17:28
  Dayna Roselli: I want to like go in there and tour it now, but I don't know if we'd be able to.
• 17:31
  Sean McAllister: Maybe we do like a we can talk our way in.
• 17:34
  Dayna Roselli: Knock on the door and film it kind of there.
• 17:36
  Dayna Roselli: We're here to see the inside of the polo towers.
• 17:39
  Sean McAllister: But it's not an expose, we promise.
• 17:41
  Sean McAllister: Unless it turns into one.
• 17:43
  Sean McAllister: Hey, you know, uh, spring has sprung here in Las Vegas.
• 17:47
  Sean McAllister: If you are an allergy sufferer, you will know it when you are here right now, especially with the wind we've been having.
• 17:54
  Sean McAllister: Uh, but something else that's been popping up all over town, aside from flowers, are traffic cones.
• 18:00
  Sean McAllister: Yes.
• 18:01
  Sean McAllister: And they are, if you follow the traffic cones down on Las Vegas Boulevard, you are pretty much going to be following the course of the Formula One race that is coming up this fall.
• 18:13
  Sean McAllister: And those road cones are out because the construction is in full swing along the entire race course, and it is slowing down traffic big time.
• 18:26
  Dayna Roselli: It is, and we told you it was coming, and and it they started quickly.
• 18:30
  Dayna Roselli: So Sean and I both, well, when we were going to brew dog, got caught in some traffic.
• 18:34
  Dayna Roselli: It's it's torn up, they are in full force, which is smart because it's cooler right now.
• 18:39
  Dayna Roselli: Because I do think about those construction crews in the heart of the summer tearing up that road.
• 18:43
  Dayna Roselli: So, I mean, maybe they're getting a big lead on it, but um, it's for the you know, the F1, the Formula One race that's coming here in the fall.
• 18:51
  Dayna Roselli: A lot of adjustments to be made around the strip.
• 18:54
  Dayna Roselli: So no matter what, always add in 20 minutes to your trip if you need to be somewhere on time for sure, because it's gonna take you longer.
• 19:03
  Dayna Roselli: You can see a map at Vegas-revealed.com and some information there.
• 19:08
  Dayna Roselli: But just a heads up that traffic at the construction that we were talking about is now happening.
• 19:16
  Sean McAllister: Now through September, yeah, they'll be paving.
• 19:19
  Sean McAllister: So just keep that in mind.
• 19:21
  Sean McAllister: Add in some extra time.
• 19:23
  Sean McAllister: Uh, shall we get to some music news?
• 19:25
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 19:25
  Dayna Roselli: Um, I love when you and I get a press release and then we Google the group person, whatever it is.
• 19:31
  Dayna Roselli: Who is, and then we go, oh, I know them.
• 19:37
  Dayna Roselli: But we noticed this was kind of a big deal.
• 19:39
  Dayna Roselli: And everyone who's a fan of Blackpink is gonna be upset with us that we didn't know who they were.
• 19:45
  Sean McAllister: But we do know who they are now that we Google now that we know, now that we listen to the music, we're like, oh, okay.
• 19:52
  Sean McAllister: So I do know black pink.
• 19:54
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 19:55
  Dayna Roselli: We went right to iTunes.
• 19:56
  Dayna Roselli: So they're coming to Allegiant Stadium.
• 19:58
  Dayna Roselli: Uh really cool.
• 19:58
  Dayna Roselli: They've been headlining over at Coachella.
• 20:01
  Dayna Roselli: So apparently, you know, global superstars, Blackpink, they announced this world tour, Born Pink, and it's gonna be in North America.
• 20:11
  Dayna Roselli: This kind of encore to that world tour is gonna be in North America.
• 20:14
  Dayna Roselli: They're not doing that many stops, Sean.
• 20:16
  Dayna Roselli: And I love that Las Vegas made the list.
• 20:18
  Sean McAllister: Well, I think it's a perfect, a perfect place to do especially this kind of music where it is like that kind of festival kind of vibe that really gets people like moving in a in a rhythm, yeah, excuse me, in a rhythm together.
• 20:35
  Sean McAllister: And you know, I'm sure that when they're on stage, they can see the crowd, you know, bopping.
• 20:40
  Sean McAllister: Um, so I mean, making doing it here in Las Vegas makes sense, especially given that we, you know, have EDC and you know, lovers and friends like all these music festivals, life is beautiful.
• 20:52
  Sean McAllister: Um, so this is a good stop.
• 20:54
  Dayna Roselli: It is, and they're doing uh Metlef Stadium in uh New Jersey, they are doing Oracle Park in San Francisco and Los Angeles uh the Dodger Stadium, they're doing it there, and then Allegiant.
• 21:07
  Dayna Roselli: That's it.
• 21:07
  Dayna Roselli: So our show is August 18th, and tickets will go on sale to the public on April 28th.
• 21:15
  Dayna Roselli: Um, I have a feeling this will fill up quick.
• 21:17
  Dayna Roselli: They have so many hits.
• 21:18
  Dayna Roselli: Fantastic.
• 21:19
  Dayna Roselli: We were even watching some videos.
• 21:20
  Dayna Roselli: I think this is gonna be a really fun show.
• 21:23
  Dayna Roselli: So August 18th, if you want to go see Blackpink.
• 21:26
  Sean McAllister: Uh, throwing it back a little bit for this next act, Morris Day and the Time are coming here to Las Vegas.
• 21:36
  Sean McAllister: Uh and it's for the coinciding with the 39th anniversary of Purple Rain.
• 21:42
  Sean McAllister: So if you don't know, Morris Day and uh Prince go way back to like high school days.
• 21:49
  Sean McAllister: And so they worked together uh as they were both coming up in in music.
• 21:56
  Sean McAllister: So there's a very strong connection there.
• 21:59
  Dayna Roselli: I love that.
• 22:00
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 22:00
  Dayna Roselli: And we were looking up some of the old videos, and I was like, listen, this song, Jungle Love, is so good, right?
• 22:06
  Dayna Roselli: Ohie, OE, oh.
• 22:08
  Dayna Roselli: And um, so anyway, that's gonna just rock the house.
• 22:11
  Dayna Roselli: I know that the strat is gonna be uh packed for this show.
• 22:15
  Dayna Roselli: They're doing two shows, actually.
• 22:16
  Dayna Roselli: It's July 28th and July 29th.
• 22:19
  Dayna Roselli: It's Morris Day and the time at the Strat.
• 22:22
  Dayna Roselli: It's their exclusive Las Vegas performances, and like you said, um coinciding with the Purple Rain anniversary.
• 22:28
  Dayna Roselli: So um, and then we looked it up and you know, we we realized that Morris Day is actually in Purple Rain, and he had that kind of scene-stealing breakout performance in the movie where he's actually performing the other song that they're very, very well known for.
• 22:42
  Dayna Roselli: They're well known for so many songs, but the one that I know best, and I can't think of the name of it.
• 22:48
  Dayna Roselli: Oh, the bird.
• 22:49
  Dayna Roselli: So um, they are going to be performing over at the Strat.
• 22:52
  Dayna Roselli: Look forward to having that show here.
• 22:54
  Dayna Roselli: I have never heard of them performing here before, but I could be dismissing that.
• 23:00
  Sean McAllister: Uh, I know that he uh he's come through several times.
• 23:03
  Sean McAllister: I remember uh we used to have him in on our our show quite a bit.
• 23:08
  Sean McAllister: Um so yeah, he's no stranger to Las Vegas.
• 23:11
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, but I don't know, did he come with the time?
• 23:13
  Sean McAllister: I believe the time was around.
• 23:16
  Dayna Roselli: Could okay, got it.
• 23:17
  Dayna Roselli: So it was, yeah.
• 23:18
  Dayna Roselli: Like I said, I might have missed that one.
• 23:20
  Sean McAllister: So but it was years ago.
• 23:21
  Sean McAllister: It was not recent.
• 23:23
  Dayna Roselli: I love that.
• 23:23
  Dayna Roselli: Well, two very different things from Blackpink to Morris Day in the Time.
• 23:27
  Dayna Roselli: We have variety here in Las Vegas.
• 23:29
  Dayna Roselli: Um, also coming up, the chicks are gonna be performing over at the backed theater at Planet Hollywood.

• 23:43

• 23:51
  Dayna Roselli: I met Nikki on a red carpet recently, and she just seemed fabulous and funny.

  Sean McAllister: You know, Dana, anyone who spent time in the desert knows that we have some of the most spectacular sunsets anywhere.
• 25:29
  Sean McAllister: They're just beautiful.
• 25:30
  Dayna Roselli: They are.
• 25:31
  Sean McAllister: And now the cosmopolitan is taking advantage of those sunsets by having a sunset cocktail hour at the Boulevard Pool.
• 25:40
  Dayna Roselli: Isn't this a great idea?
• 25:41
  Dayna Roselli: I love it.
• 25:42
  Sean McAllister: I mean brilliant.
• 25:44
  Dayna Roselli: First of all, the pool, Boulevard Pool, that patio is great.
• 25:48
  Dayna Roselli: And it's something that they have actually done a really good job utilizing, but I love that they've thrown this into the mix, you know.
• 25:56
  Dayna Roselli: Totally.
• 25:57
  Dayna Roselli: And it's from 6:30 to 8:30.
• 25:59
  Dayna Roselli: It's already started.
• 26:00
  Dayna Roselli: It's gonna run through September 22nd.
• 26:03
  Dayna Roselli: They have a DJ, uh, live music, cocktails, light bites, all that stuff.
• 26:09
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, so this is a great way as you know, the sun is dipping down over the horizon just to, you know, cheers with your mates and uh then either go to bed for the night or just start your night.
• 26:23
  Dayna Roselli: Or just start right.
• 26:24
  Dayna Roselli: And also it's every Friday.
• 26:26
  Dayna Roselli: So just uh so you don't show up on a Wednesday.
• 26:29
  Dayna Roselli: It's Fridays, 6 30 to 8 30.
• 26:31
  Dayna Roselli: We went, check our social media.
• 26:32
  Dayna Roselli: We'll have some videos up there to kind of show you the vibe and everything like that.
• 26:36
  Dayna Roselli: But we enjoyed it so much.
• 26:38
  Dayna Roselli: And like you said, Sean, sunset hour is one of the best, sunset hours, one of the best hours uh of Las Vegas.
• 26:46
  Dayna Roselli: And I always wondered, I think it's because we don't have a lot of high trees and it's not like a hilly because the because we sit in the you know in the bowl.
• 26:55
  Dayna Roselli: It's flat, the bowl is what we get to see our sunsets, you know, so well.
• 26:59
  Dayna Roselli: So I love that.
• 27:00
  Dayna Roselli: Um, so yeah, sunset cocktail hour at the cosmopolitan, go there until September 22nd.
• 27:07
  Sean McAllister: Something else we wanted to let you know about is uh a new art experience that is happening over at Resorts World.
• 27:17
  Sean McAllister: It's called Transfix.
• 27:20
  Dayna Roselli: It's now open, and this is gonna be here through the fall as well.
• 27:23
  Dayna Roselli: So I love this.
• 27:24
  Dayna Roselli: Like the all these things that are kicking off, they're gonna be going all summer.
• 27:27
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and Transfix is actually stopping in Las Vegas first.
• 27:32
  Dayna Roselli: So we're kind of like the starting ground, and they plan to tour with this globally.
• 27:37
  Dayna Roselli: Um, it's a massive space.
• 27:39
  Dayna Roselli: It's gonna it includes over 50 installations across this venue.
• 27:45
  Dayna Roselli: It's an indoor-outdoor space at Resorts World, and the installations are really interactive.
• 27:52
  Dayna Roselli: Some were like even breathing fire.
• 27:53
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, it's crazy.
• 27:54
  Sean McAllister: So these are the the art installations that we're talking about are the kinds of things that you would see at EDC, the Electric Daisy Carnival, uh, Coachella, Burning Man.
• 28:06
  Sean McAllister: And actually, some of them have come from those festivals, but there's new sculptures and art installations as well.
• 28:14
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 28:14
  Dayna Roselli: There's also 10 bars throughout, including a speakeasy.
• 28:19
  Dayna Roselli: And apparently, even uh like this is art inspired.

  Dayna Roselli: So, like the bars are art inspired.
• 28:24
  Dayna Roselli: Like everything has like an art inspiration, and there's so many artists on board for this.

• 28:37
  Dayna Roselli: Um, and you can check our again our our social media for videos on this because I think we can probably describe a little more, but it is open, and we wanted to let people know that it's open, it exists, and it's probably something you want to add to your list if you're coming here this summer.
• 28:52
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and if uh we'll have the link down in our show notes, but it's transfixart.com uh for tickets.
• 28:58
