#132: What? Doesn’t Every Podcast Have a Sommelier?
November 23, 2011
After another great pep talk from Melissa, the Whitney’s begin today’s Living in Las Vegas Podcast with our first non-human adoption and an additional touch of class, thanks to Wayne the Sommelier (keep the tip, W). Scott follows with his journey to the Playboy Comedy Club, Ellis Island, and Bootlegger’s Bistro Jazz Open Mic Cabaret without the accompaniment of Melissa. We conclude with the reason Scott dared to travel alone — Melissa’s trip to New Orleans. Show notes:

#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:

#114: A First-Hand Look at Crime in Vegas
June 29, 2011
Like any large city, Las Vegas has its fair share of crime. But when it comes a little too close to home. . .well. . .that’s not a feature.

#104: Did We Find the Best Show in Vegas?
April 20, 2011
Once you’ve lived in Las Vegas long enough, you begin to notice that many of the shows on the Strip are similar. Same gags. Same stunts. Same music. But in this episode of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast, we’ve come across a show that is uniquely funny, a little dirty, full of “how are they doing that” moments, and should be required viewing for all producers in the city.

92: Foreclosures, Not Just for Homes Anymore
January 19, 2011
With all the news about home foreclosures in Las Vegas (we’re #1, we’re #1), it isn’t terribly surprising that business foreclosures pop up in the news from time to time. . .unless it’s one of your favorite shopping, eating, and hanging out locations.
Then it’s personal. (And confusing.)
In this edition of the Living in Las Vegas Podcast, we talk about the foreclosure procedures facing Town Square (bad?) and, on a brighter note, being invited onto the Recycled Percussion stage (good?). Show notes:
