February 1, 2012

Having just returned from 10 days in London, we have an interesting take on the UK’s view of Las Vegas.

#128: What to do When Your Studio Dies

October 19, 2011

In a first for the Living in Las Vegas Podcast, after over six years of successful shows, we have a complete studio failure at the PodWorx studio (vs. the Vegas Video Network studio). This episode is the result of that event. (Anybody want to buy a $7900 computer. . .that doesn’t power up?)

#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:
