#116v2: Drinks the Size of Your Torso
July 20, 2011
This should have been episode #117, but an evil force (Windows XP) and Scott’s careless use of the delete key killed last week’s episode. Which was really a fun show. Ask the live chat folks.
Anywho, today’s Living in Las Vegas features a special twist with our hosts, proves Nevada really is the wild west, answers several email questions, and shares an evening that featured great dancing and drinks as large as some people’s torso. Show notes:

#105: People ARE Moving to Las Vegas!
April 27, 2011
When we first launched the show, our tagline was, “With 5,000 people moving here each month, somebody had to spill the beans.”
That was in 2006.
Until recently, we’ve seen a net loss in residents here in Clark County. But in this episode of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast, we hear from two viewers who are making the move to Las Vegas. YES! Show notes:

#103: Another 2AM Nite in Vegas. Please Help Us.

The first late night (ie; 4AM) we’ve experienced in years (A Different Kind of Island) was followed by a 2AM night after tieing a mother down the very next week. So for this edition of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast, we hoped to share a more mellow story. The key word being hoped. Show notes:

#102: Tie Your Mother Down [In Elvis’ Shower]
April 5, 2011
After recovering from our Ellis Island adventure (that episode was the most watched LiLV video since the launch of the VEGAS VIDEO NETWORK), we decided to spend much of this weekend at the always-busy Las Vegas Hilton. In this episode of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast, we hang with a comedic legend, tie a mother down, and sing in Elvis’ shower. Show notes:

There is something joyous about finding an email addressed to friends@livinginlv.com in my inbox. The stories. The kind words. The photos of groovy listeners from around the globe. So imagine my uber-joy as I proudly added three more folks to the Friends of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast page!
First we have Jason, who hails from Missouri and is clearly capable of any bodyguard duties I may need in the soon or distant future.
Next is Amber, a Las Vegas local who is a very impressive graphics designer. (She’s worked with several casinos here in town.)
And the latest addition is Michael and Melissa, a cute couple from Oregon who are in the midst of buying a short sale home here in Las Vegas.
Welcome all to the site!
By the way, are YOU on our Friends of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast page? It’s easy! Just attach a photo of yourself to an email and send it to friends@livinginlv.com. Include your name and location and you will join fabulous folks like Jason, Amber, Michael and Melissa!

It would be obvious to think that because our latest Living in Las Vegas Podcast “Friend” Bob W. shares two distinct traits with me, THAT is why I believe his recently-added photo epitomizes the pinnacle of cool.
But you know I’m much more fair and balanced than that.
Long before I recognized the powerful one-two punch of groovy that presents itself when a person like Bob rocks a goatee and rides a large, v-twin motorcycle, it was deemed groovy by the universe.
Bob and I just fell into it.
I have since stopped riding my motorcycle around Las Vegas. (Have you seen how people drive around here?!?!) But you can bet I still respect and admire the goatee+motorcycle combo that has proven to keep America great.
Thank you Bob for continuing the tradition of grooviness. And welcome to the website!
(And kudos to Bob’s wife Donna for playing along in the motorcycling fun!)
By the way, are YOU on our Friends of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast page? It’s easy! Just attach a photo of yourself to an email and send it to friends@livinginlv.com. Include your name and location and you too will be groovy, just like Bob!
