Step away from the puckball playoffs, it’s time to shove some Vegas in your ears.<\/p>\n

In this week’s episode, we’ve got an exclusive interview with Derek Stevens, owner of The D and Golden Gate, about his new resort at 18 Fremont.<\/p>\n

Stevens helps clear up lots of questions about the project, shares his thoughts about what the new casino will bring to Las Vegas and hints at some surprises to come.<\/p>\n

\"18
We’re already antsy for the new casino at 18 Fremont, and it’s two years away. We’re looking into purchasing a cryosleep chamber.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The show is also teeming with unsubstantiated rumors and speculation, including some juicy ones about a potential sale of Cosmopolitan to Hard Rock International, plus who might be buying Mandarin Oriental<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You’ll also want to hear the latest about what’s next for the Flamingo’s Margaritaville Casino and 5 O’Clock Somewhere Bar<\/a>. Hint: We hope you’re not emotionally attached.<\/p>\n

You know, all the stuff you’ve already read in this blog!<\/p>\n

The sun’s going down on the 5 O’Clock Somewhere bar at Flamingo.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There’s a boatload of Las Vegas news, of course, and a listicle slapped together at the last possible moment, as is our way. It’s something about what casinos to do keep you gambling, although the specifics are muddy because Captain Morgan spiced rum.<\/p>\n

There might be better Las Vegas podcasts, but you’d be hard-pressed to find one with a more inflamed liver.<\/p>\n
