Vegas Gang #9 – “Harrah’s WLV?” – May 30th, 2008

Vegas Gang #9 is now live.

In prep for this episode I came up with quite a few stories, honestly most of them pretty small – no big blockbusters… Some interesting stuff but no big, whopper item to sink our teeth into.

The story on Las Vegas logos is here: http://www.vegastripping.com/features/feature.php?feature_id=142&page=1

Well, we went through a lot of those stories, with some good insights. Then, at the last minute, Jeff Simpson lets loose with an interesting theory – what would happen if you combined Wynn Resorts and Caesars Entertainment? Well, of course everyone had some thoughts on that one… Have a listen!

Vegas Gang #4 – March 20th, 2008

Well, we’re back – our first show served up from our new home here at VegasGangPodcast.com!

This show was a lot of fun for everyone I think – we were lucky enough to be joined part way through by Christina Binkley, author of ‘Winner Takes All’, a recently published account of the Las Vegas deal-making that has dominated the past few years.

Make sure you are subscribed to our new podcast feed, linked in the upper right. Also, the book is available below:

Winner Takes All: Steve Wynn, Kirk Kerkorian, Gary Loveman, and the Race to Own Las Vegas
