Episode Description

This week we learned a lot more about how the growing Vegas Loop plans to connect to Las Vegas Harry Reid International Airport. With a land acquisition and some plans, Vegas Loop could connect to a transport hub, but will it require extra shuttles and is the solution good enough in the end? Plus how is Vegas airport these days given the slowing visitor numbers.

In other news Resorts World is still pursuing an NBA arena. Is that the best possible location for a new basketball team in Vegas? We also discuss Aria's viral $26 water, Circus Circus' $51 resort fee, singing TSA agents, Vegas housing being soft, the death of the big casino wheel, Dolly Parton's new residency and what to do if a casino asks for your bank account.
