It’s time for another installment of the podcast equivalent of a plastic straw in a room full of turtles.<\/p>\n

It’s the Vital Vegas podcast, now at Casino.org.<\/p>\n

Disorienting, isn’t it? You’d think being affiliated with a super professional and highly-respected site like Casino.org would raise the bar for quality on the Vital Vegas Podcast. But nope, you’re SOL.<\/p>\n

It’s the same old nonsense.<\/p>\n

There’s probably a new logo we’re supposed to use, but we’ve been very busy donating to several Las Vegas slot machines. We’ll get to it, eventually.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this episode, we get tennis elbow from patting ourself on the back for so much scoop being officially confirmed.<\/p>\n

There was boom about the Super Bowl coming to Vegas in 2024, the boom about Adele getting a residency at Caesars Palace and the boom about Mirage being sold to the Seminoles.<\/p>\n

\"\"
The Las Vegas Strip is about to get some new curves.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We take a brief moment to also whip up a listicle, “16 Things You Have To Do or You Haven’t Really Done Las Vegas.”<\/p>\n

Thank you, title case converter<\/a>, or we’d have capitalized “or,” too. These rules are so arbitrary. We are a blog, not an AP Stylebook.<\/p>\n

All this to divert your attention away from the fact this episode is pretty much like all our other podcast episodes, but without the Captain Morgan. Long story.<\/p>\n

We do touch base with owner of The D, Derek Stevens, about the return of a beloved downtown statue, Manneken Pis. Manneken Pis was damaged by some revelers a few weeks back, but he’s made his triumphant return and “aims to please.”<\/p>\n

In this episode, you’ll also get the latest news about the reopening of Palms, the Las Vegas airport rebrand, a tiger “sanctuary” that isn’t coming to The Strip, the inside track on why Cirque’s CEO is out, Emmett Smith’s restaurant that might open at Fashion Show Mall, a major renovation coming the Miracle Mile Shops and an upcoming Nic Cage movie with pitch perfect casting.<\/p>\n

The reopening of Palms is something to look forward to in 2022.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Sure, you can read blogs or Twitter, you can learn about Vegas from YouTube or Instagram, you can even take a stab at old-timey “books” or “newspapers,” but seriously, try doing those things when you’re driving or jogging. You will be a danger to yourself and others.<\/p>\n

Podcasts, keeping the world safe from your irresponsible behavior since about 2004.<\/p>\n

Here’s the podcast on the iTunes<\/a>. You should subscribe or follow the show or whatever the kids are doing now.<\/p>\n

Enjoy an earful of Las Vegas, and please keep your feedback to yourself. Consider it a personal growth moment.<\/p>\n
