  Dayna Roselli: I'm not gonna lie, sean, it's been quite a week, my brain is fried, and so I might have you do a lot of the talking today.
• 1:00
  Sean McAllister: Hey, no problem at all.
• 1:01
  Sean McAllister: We all have those weeks when we just need to like shut off for a minute but we have a podcast to do.
• 1:09
  Dayna Roselli: We do, and we're bracing for Hurricane Hillary.
• 1:11
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, I mean this is crazy.
• 1:13
  Sean McAllister: So this is a category four storm in the Pacific.
• 1:16
  Sean McAllister: It's making its way up the Baja Peninsula on a direct course to Las Vegas.
• 1:22
  Sean McAllister: Southern California and parts of Arizona also gonna get hit, but it's unusual that we get remnants of a hurricane.
• 1:30
  Sean McAllister: We're recording now, on a Thursday by the weekend, when a lot of you are listening.
• 1:36
  Sean McAllister: That storm is gonna be right over top of us, so we'll let you know next week.
• 1:41
  Sean McAllister: Here on Vegas Revealed how we fare, but it seems like we are in for some tropical storm, force winds, a ton of rain.
• 1:52
  Sean McAllister: I just got an alert on my phone that for the next four days, clark County, which is the county where Las Vegas is, we're in for a flood watch for the next four days.
• 2:03
  Dayna Roselli: I know, and it's interesting when you say a ton of rain, it's like, well, we never really get a ton of rain, but this looks like it's gonna be a lot.
• 2:08
  Dayna Roselli: So I mean it's a big deal for us because we do not get rain a lot, we live in the desert.
• 2:13
  Dayna Roselli: So all that, and then the temperature is coming down to high 70s.
• 2:18
  Dayna Roselli: We've had like 105, 107 consistently all summer, so it's like what is going on.
• 2:23
  Dayna Roselli: So it'll be interesting to see.
• 2:25
  Dayna Roselli: Hopefully everyone stays safe and obviously when we have flooding here it can get a little dangerous.
• 2:31
  Dayna Roselli: So we'll definitely keep our eyes out and keep you posted on social media with that.
• 2:35
  Dayna Roselli: Also, our hearts go out to the folks in Maui.
• 2:37
  Dayna Roselli: We haven't talked about the wildfire in Maui.
• 2:40
  Dayna Roselli: We do have so many Hawaiians that live here in Las Vegas and visit us.
• 2:44
  Dayna Roselli: There are tons of fundraisers happening around town.
• 2:48
  Dayna Roselli: I know I think it was the Raiders that also kind of wrote a check and donated possibly some money.
• 2:53
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, during warmups in their next preseason game they'll be taking the field in special 9th Island t-shirts, just showing that the team not only is making financial donations to help out people there in Maui, but also in solidarity as well.
• 3:15
  Dayna Roselli: Maui is the only island I've actually visited in Hawaii and I've always thought about Hawaii, people like it would be so amazing to live there and I've always thought, I don't know, I would feel a little I don't know, trapped is the wrong word, but I'm more of a like to get places quick and all that, and I always thought I don't know if I could live there.
• 3:32
  Dayna Roselli: But I love visiting there.
• 3:34
  Dayna Roselli: But the people that live there, the Hawaiian culture, they've made their homes there and it's deep rooted and this has just been horrible for them.
• 3:41
  Dayna Roselli: So our hearts go out to them.
• 3:43
  Dayna Roselli: And then we obviously have so many, like I said, visitors and family members that live here in Las Vegas that are a part of our community and have made it wonderful.
• 3:50
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, so, and, like you said, there are a lot of fundraisers.
• 3:53
  Sean McAllister: Las Vegas's collective heart is going out to everyone there on Maui and everybody who's impacted.
• 4:00

  Sean McAllister: So that's always a good thing.
• 5:17
  Dayna Roselli: It's true.

• 5:53
  Dayna Roselli: I should bring up the screenshot.
• 5:56
  Dayna Roselli: Hold on everyone.
• 5:57
  Dayna Roselli: It's right here.
• 5:58
  Dayna Roselli: We ran an ad and we made one cent.
• 6:02
  Dayna Roselli: One cent.
• 6:05
  Dayna Roselli: It's not even cents.
• 6:07
  Sean McAllister: It's not plural, it's a singular penny.
• 6:10
  Dayna Roselli: So we work it, man, and we put a lot of time into it.

  Dayna Roselli: So we appreciate you, thank you so much, and hopefully, even with some of our sponsors, we can bring you specials as well.
• 6:20
  Dayna Roselli: That will benefit you for listening to us.
• 6:23
  Sean McAllister: All right, let's get into some meaty stuff here.
• 6:25
  Sean McAllister: There are some rumors flying around Las Vegas.
• 6:29
  Sean McAllister: These are unconfirmed rumors.
• 6:31
  Sean McAllister: However, we have been hearing them that Bruno Mars could be relocating and making Las Vegas his home.
• 6:38
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, you heard this and I was like wait, what I missed out.
• 6:41
  Dayna Roselli: So what, where did this come from?
• 6:42
  Dayna Roselli: And, like, what are the rumors and what are the tips?
• 6:45
  Sean McAllister: So I have friends who live in a really nice neighborhood and there are houses being built there, kind of up the mountain side, which is happening all over Las Vegas.
• 6:58
  Sean McAllister: We're sprawling out, so they're terracing off the mountain sides and building really nice houses because they have great views.
• 7:04
  Sean McAllister: Yes, and one of the houses being built right now is rumored to be for Bruno Mars.
• 7:12
  Dayna Roselli: Okay, and that-.
• 7:13
  Sean McAllister: So leave the door open.
• 7:14
  Sean McAllister: Leave the door open, absolutely.
• 7:18
  Sean McAllister: Where are you going?
• 7:19
  Sean McAllister: But it makes a lot of sense that he would relocate here, not only because of you know all of the business interests he has outside of his music career, which, as part of the music career, he's a resident headliner over at Park MGM.
• 7:36
  Sean McAllister: He's always doing shows on New Year's Eve here.
• 7:40
  Sean McAllister: He has his rum company, which that's in a lot of bars up and down the Las Vegas Strip, plus he's also this is another rumor, I'll call it it's more confirmed, but not 100% that Bruno Mars is opening a bar and lounge inside Bellagio Makes sense okay Called.
• 8:05
  Sean McAllister: Pinky Ring by Bruno Mars.
• 8:07
  Dayna Roselli: Oh, is that Is the Scuttlebutt?
• 8:09
  Dayna Roselli: Okay, is that gonna be, maybe where Lily?
• 8:12
  Dayna Roselli: Is that closed?
• 8:13
  Sean McAllister: Yes, so Lily closed in July, right, so a renovation is happening right now.
• 8:19
  Sean McAllister: Currently, there haven't been a lot of details that have come out about this rumor of Bruno Mars moving in and details of what the space might be.
• 8:28
  Sean McAllister: However, there are well-placed sources, according to a lot of reports, that say yes, it is happening, it is Bruno, he's bringing his spot so and the Pinky Ring is pulled from a line in 24-karat magic.
• 8:47
  Dayna Roselli: Okay, got it.
• 8:48
  Dayna Roselli: But, the Bellagio needs something like that.
• 8:50
  Dayna Roselli: I like that idea.
• 8:51
  Dayna Roselli: You know the main fairs, super clubs, great.
• 8:53
  Sean McAllister: Well, I think it'll be like a late night kinda good spot.
• 8:55
  Sean McAllister: That's not necessarily like night club level.
• 8:58
  Dayna Roselli: Right, and I think that's what that's what I-.
• 9:01
  Dayna Roselli: And I speak for the 40-somethings that's what we like.
• 9:04
  Sean McAllister: Yes.
• 9:05
  Dayna Roselli: And the 40-somethings are the ones that spend money.
• 9:08
  Sean McAllister: That is true.
• 9:09
  Dayna Roselli: The 20-somethings find a way and they get VIP access and they have friends that they know and a lot of them they drink before they go out.
• 9:18
  Dayna Roselli: Let's put it that way.
• 9:19
  Dayna Roselli: They're not necessarily spending the money at the bar.
• 9:21
  Sean McAllister: Well, and let's face it, I need to go to a place that has a club vibe, but that isn't the club, because I can't keep up with those 20-somethings anymore.
• 9:31
  Dayna Roselli: I know, I know, oh, my gosh, I like a good martini and blue cheese, olives, little salty.
• 9:38
  Dayna Roselli: Anyway, I think that's a great idea.
• 9:41
  Dayna Roselli: So, bruno, if you're moving here, we welcome you to town and you're right, I think he's got a lot of things going on which it makes sense for him to have a home here, and a lot of times with these celebrities, it's where they're gonna spend most of their time, but then they have other places that they're constantly going and working, so it's kinda like home base.
• 9:56
  Sean McAllister: And, by the way, bruno, welcome to Las Vegas if you are indeed moving here and you have a standing invitation to come join us here on Vegas Revealed anytime you want.
• 10:06
  Dayna Roselli: That's right.
• 10:07
  Dayna Roselli: That's right Cause I know he's listening.
• 10:09
  Sean McAllister: Absolutely.
• 10:10
  Sean McAllister: Why wouldn't he be?
• 10:11
  Dayna Roselli: We just got a little survey sent to us saying that we were number 13 in the top 70 podcast in Las Vegas.
• 10:19
  Sean McAllister: We did.
• 10:20
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and it kind of seems like a site that isn't completely legit.
• 10:24
  Dayna Roselli: But we appreciate the mention.
• 10:26
  Dayna Roselli: 13's my lucky number.
• 10:28
  Dayna Roselli: It's my birthday.
• 10:29
  Sean McAllister: Oh, well, good.
• 10:30
  Dayna Roselli: And so Friday the 13th has never, like you know, made me feel I'm always like it's a great day.
• 10:35
  Sean McAllister: No bad omens, no bad omens, only good luck.
• 10:37
  Sean McAllister: I like it.
• 10:39
  Dayna Roselli: Hey, well, let's stick with the rumor mail.
• 10:41
  Sean McAllister: Okay.
• 10:41
  Dayna Roselli: Rumor, but we never report just a week.
• 10:44
  Dayna Roselli: We kind of have a lot of like we kind of know it's true, just know that.
• 10:49
  Dayna Roselli: But we call it a rumor because it's unconfirmed.
• 10:51
  Sean McAllister: Because it has not officially been announced.
• 10:55
  Dayna Roselli: We're not spewing like gossip that we randomly heard in the line at JCPenney or anything like that.
• 11:00
  Dayna Roselli: Okay, post Malone possibly performing New Year's Eve at the Fountain Blue.
• 11:06
  Dayna Roselli: The Fontainebleau is opening in December of 2023.
• 11:09
  Dayna Roselli: It's on schedule and apparently Post Malone is gonna be performing there on New Year's Eve, so that's kind of going around.
• 11:15
  Dayna Roselli: It's been reported in the paper.
• 11:17
  Dayna Roselli: A lot of people online have been talking about it Not officially, officially confirmed.
• 11:21
  Sean McAllister: Although the Fountain Blue the newspaper did reach out to Fountain Blue for comment, they said that in the 70 year history of the Fontainebleau brand, they always have strong connections with celebrities and big time entertainers.
• 11:37
  Dayna Roselli: So yes.
• 11:37
  Sean McAllister: They can confirm or deny.
• 11:38
  Sean McAllister: They just didn't really say anything about it.
• 11:40
  Sean McAllister: They say they have relationships.
• 11:42
  Dayna Roselli: Right, right, okay, so probably.
• 11:44
  Sean McAllister: But that would be good.
• 11:45
  Dayna Roselli: It would be.
• 11:45
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, that's interesting.
• 11:46
  Dayna Roselli: Interesting first, I would say, first choice that we've heard of.
• 11:49
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know if someone might be performing at their opening of the hotel as well.
• 11:53
  Dayna Roselli: But New Year's Eve for interesting, because you wonder, we don't know exactly what the Fountain Blue is all about.
• 12:00
  Dayna Roselli: We know what the one in Miami is like.
• 12:01
  Dayna Roselli: We've seen renderings, but what kind of caliber of entertainment they are gonna bring into there and also what kind of things they are going to have inside.
• 12:09
  Dayna Roselli: We know we've seen a couple like swanky lounges and they do have a theater, so anyway, it'll be interesting to see.
• 12:15
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and to find out what the vibe is going to be like on property there too.
• 12:19
  Dayna Roselli: Right, okay, the other rumor that's probably not a rumor is the Eagles performing over at the Sphere Announces kind of the second big act coming in.
• 12:27
  Dayna Roselli: You two's doing a slew of shows.
• 12:29
  Dayna Roselli: A lot of them have sold out.
• 12:31
  Dayna Roselli: People are looking forward to that.
• 12:33
  Dayna Roselli: Now we're hearing the Eagles are coming and possibly performing Super Bowl Weekend, which is in February, here in Las Vegas.
• 12:39
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, so that would be good too.
• 12:40
  Sean McAllister: I think the Eagles are a good choice.
• 12:43
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, I mean they're going classic rock right.
• 12:45
  Sean McAllister: They are, and I mean, it seems like that, yeah.
• 12:47
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah.
• 12:48
  Dayna Roselli: So it'll be interesting to see after that what other kinds of.
• 12:51
  Dayna Roselli: We keep saying like who's gonna play the Sphere, you know, like who else?
• 12:55
  Dayna Roselli: And we have ideas.
• 12:56
  Dayna Roselli: We talked about Harry Styles.
• 12:57
  Dayna Roselli: He would sell it out.
• 12:58
  Dayna Roselli: You know, that could be kind of a pop, but I don't know what they're looking for.
• 13:01
  Dayna Roselli: They might have a certain I don't know a certain genre they're going for.
• 13:06
  Dayna Roselli: I'm not sure.
• 13:06
  Dayna Roselli: But you two in the Eagles I don't want to say they're the same, but you know very iconic rock bands totally so interesting.
• 13:13
  Sean McAllister: I like the Eagles I had I played their CD quite a bit.
• 13:17
  Dayna Roselli: Did you?
• 13:17
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, growing up we always played Hotel California in the car with the wind, because I like feeling like the wind was blowing in my hair.
• 13:26

  Sean McAllister: So and you know you have to imagine that it's going to have a connection to, you know, the existing Mirage property as well.
• 17:34
  Sean McAllister: So, so you'll have walking access directly from the strip into the guitar tower and then on into the Mirage.
• 17:43
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and I wonder, you know.
• 17:45
  Dayna Roselli: I was just sitting here thinking did we ever discuss or look into or have we heard, because I told you it's been a long week?
• 17:50
  Dayna Roselli: Is the Mirage eventually gonna change to the hard rock name?
• 17:54
  Dayna Roselli: Are they leaving at the Mirage forever?
• 17:56
  Sean McAllister: No forever.
• 17:56
  Sean McAllister: But eventually it will change to the hard rock casino.

• 19:04
  Sean McAllister: You know what made me think of it?
• 19:05
  Sean McAllister: Just the other day it was the anniversary of.
• 19:08
  Sean McAllister: I don't know if a lot of people remember this, but Back on the East Coast there was this giant East Coast blackout right in 2003, and I was a young producer at the CBS station in Rochester, new York, and we had to run all of the newscasts.
• 19:26
  Sean McAllister: We're doing newscasts from the front lawn of the TV station and using all live trucks that were powered by generators to get signals out, and it was like Patch and stuff together to try and just get on the air.
• 19:40
  Sean McAllister: Of course there were a lot of people without power and so a lot of people weren't even able to watch.
• 19:46
  Sean McAllister: Yeah but it just made me think of that like man.
• 19:50
  Sean McAllister: It's been 20 years since that blackout.
• 19:53
  Dayna Roselli: Isn't that crazy?
• 19:54
  Dayna Roselli: And another thing is is when you even said live truck like the good old live truck.
• 19:59
  Sean McAllister: Listen when we don't have any more.
• 20:01
  Dayna Roselli: Really we're gonna do it like when we were young.
• 20:02
  Dayna Roselli: But this is what we're talking live trucks.
• 20:04
  Dayna Roselli: They never failed, like now.
• 20:06
  Dayna Roselli: You know the reporters and say the kids go out with backpacks and they go live, and there's always like a signal issue and you dial up with your phone.
• 20:13
  Dayna Roselli: You know what.
• 20:14
  Dayna Roselli: Here's the deal, the live truck.
• 20:15
  Dayna Roselli: Okay, it was a hassle because you had to park, raise the mass, you had to have an engineer on site the photographer and all that, and you had to hit the beam, the tower, but it worked.
• 20:28
  Dayna Roselli: It worked.
• 20:29
  Dayna Roselli: You went out with a live truck.
• 20:30
  Dayna Roselli: There are times when I was working over at channel 13 where they were like, well, we can't get us, and we're like you know what?
• 20:35
  Dayna Roselli: We have a live, use the live truck, like what is wrong with the live truck?
• 20:40
  Dayna Roselli: Well then we got it, did it, and I'm like you know what it works.
• 20:44
  Sean McAllister: I mean, listen, and there were some tricky situations.
• 20:47
  Sean McAllister: I remember, especially when you were in like a downtown yeah, a downtown environment where there were buildings, you know, tall buildings around.
• 20:56
  Sean McAllister: We had some pretty clever engineers who they would be like, okay, bounce the microwave signal off the south side of that building and it'll go between the other two buildings and hit our Receiving tower.
• 21:10
  Sean McAllister: Yeah it's like man, these guys have it down.
• 21:14
  Dayna Roselli: They do and they had so much pride in their work.
• 21:16

• 28:15
  Sean McAllister: We were on our way back from a work event the other day.
• 28:19
  Sean McAllister: It was in the afternoon and I was driving down a road that I don't normally drive down and I saw this little sandwich shop over on the side of the road, so I took a little video as I was stopped at the stop light and I put it up on Twitter X.
• 28:39
  Sean McAllister: Now, like Daina said, we're just gonna keep calling it Twitter.
• 28:43
  Sean McAllister: It's called Pops Philly Steaks and I put the video up and I said hey, has anybody ever eaten here?
• 28:50
  Sean McAllister: This looks like it's a really legit place, and I was blown away by the amount of response that came in from this video.
• 29:00
  Dayna Roselli: Oh my God, it is still going.
• 29:02
  Dayna Roselli: It is To the point where I'm like all right, enough of Pops because you tagged me in the post.
• 29:06
  Dayna Roselli: But listen, here's the deal.
• 29:08
  Dayna Roselli: I don't even think we need to talk about it that much.
• 29:10
  Dayna Roselli: Go to Sean's Twitter.
• 29:12
  Dayna Roselli: Look for this post.
• 29:13
  Dayna Roselli: It's about five down.
• 29:14
  Dayna Roselli: You will see the response.
• 29:15
  Dayna Roselli: But I love that the opinions were detailed.
• 29:21
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 29:22
  Dayna Roselli: Experiential how Pops played a part in people's personal lives.
• 29:26
  Dayna Roselli: Some people love it.
• 29:28
  Dayna Roselli: Some people say you can get a better cheesesteak somewhere else.
• 29:31
  Dayna Roselli: Others say nothing compares, it's totally East Coast, and so we have to get over there and try one on a non-diet day.
• 29:39
  Sean McAllister: A non-diet day absolutely.
• 29:42
  Dayna Roselli: Pops Philly cheesesteak right.
• 29:43
  Sean McAllister: Pops yes.
• 29:45
  Dayna Roselli: So okay, and I say try one, because here's the deal.
• 29:46
  Dayna Roselli: I have had one.
• 29:48
  Dayna Roselli: But it was literally the first week I moved to Las Vegas, because my first apartment was on Decatur in Flamingo when I moved here.
• 29:56
  Sean McAllister: Okay.
• 29:57
  Dayna Roselli: And when we were driving by up and down the road to see what was around us, we passed Pops and I was like I've gotta try this and I remember it being good, but obviously I don't like to eat like that all the time, so it's not something I return to all the time, but I need to revisit because it's been well almost 20 years.
• 30:16
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and so Pops is roughly at Decatur in Sahara, so it's to the west of the Las Vegas strip.
• 30:23
  Sean McAllister: So I know we're gonna need to go over there and check it out, because now I am more intrigued than ever after all the response that we received.
• 30:33

• 30:51
  Dayna Roselli: I've been to the Pro Bowl, I've toured the stadium, we've worked with the Raiders, I've sat with the Raiders and the Raiderettes in their locker room, but I've never officially gone to a Raiders game, believe it or not.

  Dayna Roselli: Until now, went to the preseason game.

• 31:12
  Dayna Roselli: I love it.
• 31:12
  Dayna Roselli: It was interesting watching the game in an indoor facility because I've only been to football games professional football games in outdoor stadiums Cleveland, buffalo because I'm from the East Coast.
• 31:24
  Dayna Roselli: We would bundle up the elements and I know that's kind of part of the fifth football thing.
• 31:29
  Dayna Roselli: But listen, sitting here at 47, I really enjoyed the indoor stadium experience.
• 31:35
  Dayna Roselli: I had jeans on a sleeveless top, my sneaks, I got my popcorn and my soda.

• 31:53
  Dayna Roselli: Let me tell ya.
• 31:54
  Dayna Roselli: Somebody wrote me on Twitter and said what's the deal with all the red?
• 31:57
  Dayna Roselli: And you know like why am I seeing so many 49er fans?
• 32:00
  Dayna Roselli: I'm like well, california's close People love to have an excuse to come to Las Vegas.
• 32:05
  Dayna Roselli: Jimmy G, our new quarterback, didn't play but was on the sidelines.
• 32:08
  Dayna Roselli: He used to be the 49er quarterback.
• 32:10
  Dayna Roselli: I feel like it was just.
• 32:12
  Dayna Roselli: It was a big game to kick off the season.
• 32:14
  Sean McAllister: I know a lot of 49ers fans who actually live here in Las Vegas too, so there's that Right.
• 32:19
  Sean McAllister: So it could be that.
• 32:20
  Dayna Roselli: So let's get to my tip.
• 32:21
  Dayna Roselli: Yes, because we all like to know if you go to a Legion Stadium, what's a tip, right?
• 32:25
  Dayna Roselli: What are some of the tips?
• 32:26
  Dayna Roselli: Here's my soda tip, if you love good Coke or Diet Coke or root beer, like I do Like a good fountain drink, a good fountain drink because I do not like Diet Coke in the bottle.
• 32:37
  Dayna Roselli: It just doesn't hit the right way.
• 32:39
  Dayna Roselli: I love a good fountain drink, so I went and bought my fountain drink.
• 32:42
  Dayna Roselli: I think it was $9.
• 32:44
  Sean McAllister: Okay.
• 32:45
  Dayna Roselli: And you get a souvenir cup.
• 32:46
  Dayna Roselli: It came in the Raiders cup and she filled it up and I said, okay, this is at the beginning of the game.
• 32:51
  Dayna Roselli: The game's long Like can I get free refills?
• 32:53
  Dayna Roselli: And she was, like you can?
• 32:56
  Dayna Roselli: On the third floor.
• 32:58
  Sean McAllister: And I was like what?
• 33:00
  Dayna Roselli: So my poor friend Robin that was with me and bought the tickets, I said listen, I need a refill.
• 33:06
  Dayna Roselli: We're going up to the third floor.
• 33:08
  Dayna Roselli: She doesn't like elevators, so we had to take the stairs and the floors are not three floors, they go by the half.
• 33:16
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 33:16
  Dayna Roselli: So it was like 150, 200, 250.
• 33:20
  Dayna Roselli: But anyway, we were laughing, it was hilarious.
• 33:22
  Dayna Roselli: It's on my social media, on Instagram, if you want to check out the video.
• 33:26
  Dayna Roselli: But listen, you go to the top and they have the fountain soda machines.
• 33:31
  Dayna Roselli: You take your cup, you fill your drink, you're all good to go, but you got to go to the third floor.
• 33:37
  Sean McAllister: Listen.
• 33:37
  Sean McAllister: I think that is a great tip because, especially if people are going to games with families, something like that, it can get pricey to buy the concessions at an arena.
• 33:49
  Sean McAllister: A stadium and having refills like that is a brilliant idea, but you have to know where to go, and now you know because of Roselle.
• 33:58
  Dayna Roselli: That's right.
• 33:59
  Dayna Roselli: So get that free refill.
• 34:00
  Dayna Roselli: I like a good free refill.
• 34:03
  Sean McAllister: I gotta tell you.
• 34:04
  Dayna Roselli: And the prices for things.
• 34:05
  Dayna Roselli: I was looking right before I went on.
• 34:06
  Dayna Roselli: I was like, how much did I spend?
• 34:07
  Dayna Roselli: So I got a big popcorn.
• 34:09
  Sean McAllister: Okay.
• 34:10
  Dayna Roselli: And two drinks, because I bought Robin's drink and it came to $29, but I know I tipped.
• 34:16
  Dayna Roselli: I think I tipped about three or four bucks, so not terrible.
• 34:20
  Dayna Roselli: 26 bucks for a big popcorn, two drinks with free refills on the third floor Perfect Okay, so not terrible you know, not terrible at all I didn't feel really gouged.
• 34:30
  Dayna Roselli: I felt like it was a fair price.
• 34:32
  Sean McAllister: That's very fair, very fair.
• 34:35
  Dayna Roselli: All right, listen.
• 34:35
