#126: RAW:Vegas; What First Friday Should Be

September 28, 2011

When we first moved to Las Vegas, we were really excited about First Friday, the once-a-month art gathering in downtown Las Vegas. But after a few visits, it felt less about art and more about miserable-looking 20-somethings in skinny jeans and black eye-shadow. In this episode of Living in Las Vegas, we find an art event that First Friday should aspire to: RAW:Vegas. (We also introduce a brand new segment to the show! How cool is that?!?!) Show notes:

  • Visit LASIK of Nevada (50% Off Premium LASIK + $200 more if you mention VVN)

  • LiLV Stuff
  • 97 / LiLV Pool (76)

#124: A Love Connection at the LiLV/VVN Meetup?

September 16, 2011

Oh sure, we deliver a nice balance of information and opinion about what it’s like to live in Las Vegas. . .and we’ve even helped a handful of folks get a job. But what about love? Well, in this episode of Living in Las Vegas, we link the names of the many people you’ve heard us talk about with their photos AND, perhaps, bring about our first love connection. Show notes:

#117: Broadway on Vegas at The Smith Center

July 27, 2011

When it comes to bringing Broadway shows to Las Vegas, there has been success (Lion King, Phantom of the Opera, Mama Mia) and failure (Avenue Q, The Producers). In this episode of Living in Las Vegas, we talk about The Smith Center, a “world-class performing arts center” that is expected to bring the best performing arts to Las Vegas. Show notes:

87: Downtown, Why It Will Succeed (and How It Could Fail)

December 5, 2010

It’s been reported that Zappos is planning on moving their headquarters (along with 1000 additional jobs) to downtown Las Vegas (in the old City Hall). That got us to thinking, “How is downtown doing these days?” For what was suppose to be a shortened version of today’s Living in Las Vegas Podcast, we discover all the projects in the downtown pipeline, along with why the whole thing could (hopefully not) fail. Show notes:

  • Weather (65 (ahhh…that’s better)) / LiLV Pool (40)
  • LiLV Stuff
    • Listener Line: 206.312.0105
    • Sign up of Email Alerts (form found on right side of our website)
  • Don’t miss Behind the Curtain
  • Las Vegas Rock and Roll Marathon
  • NFR (National Finals Rodeo)
  • Listener Email (neighborhood suggestion for new Las Vegan)
  • Downtown Las Vegas
  • (Last minute valet parking tip)

This was suppose to be a short show. Huh.

67: Southern Nevada Art Gallery in Downtown, Re-piping the House, Miss USA, Britney Spears

April 26, 2009

Recorded in front of a LIVE Streaming Video Audience! (click to see video)

Yep, we intended for this to be a quick show.  The idea was, instead of one main topic, let’s quick-hit a few topics and be done in 20-30 minutes.  An hour later, which included some fun back-and-forth with our live audience, this edition of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast features a great art gallery in downtown Las Vegas (at Neonopolis of all places), re-piping our entire house, watching the Miss USA preliminary competition and Melissa’s experience at Brit-Brit’s concert.
