Speaker 1: Ready to be amazed by the wizard of Weird Strange

12
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: Things with Joshua Warren.

13
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 2: I am Joshua pe Warren. At each week on this show,

00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 2: and weird experiments you can do at home, and a

16
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 2: lot more on this edition of the show Strange New

17
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 2: Tourist Tech in Vegas. Yes, I'm talking about Las Vegas.

18
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 2: That's where I have been for the past oh around

19
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 2: six years now, and I'm calling it tourist Tech because

20
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 2: this is stuff that you you could visit if you

21
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: came here. It's open to everybody. And of course, one

22
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 2: of the fun things about being in Las Vegas is

23
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 2: that you do get opportunities to see some of the latest, greatest,

24
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:20,959
Speaker 2: most groundbreaking tech out there in the entertainment business. And

25
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 2: you know, I'm sure there are a number of places

26
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 2: like that around the world. I imagine Tokyo is like that,

27
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 2: but here in the US, it's pretty hard to compete

28
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 2: with Las Vegas. And also, you know, a lot of

29
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: people they think of coming to Vegas as just being

30
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 2: on the strip, and for those who live here, you

31
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 2: do everything you can to avoid the strip most of

32
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 2: the time because it's just too busy, it's too expensive.

33
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 2: There's a ton of great stuff to do all around

34
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 2: the outskirts of Las Vegas, and not just gambling. I

35
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: mean a lot of hiking and beautiful scenery. I mean

36
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 2: they're shooting movies around here. You would be amazed if

37
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 2: you've never really looked into what is available on the

38
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 2: outskirts of Vegas. But anyway, for this show, I figured

39
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 2: I I found myself kind of wrapped up in a

40
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 2: situation where I was on the strip for days recently,

41
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 2: and I want to tell you what the latest greatest

42
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 2: stuff is. First off, some are calling this the eighth

43
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 2: Wonder of the world. Have you heard of the Sphere

44
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 2: and Las Vegas. It just opened this month October of

45
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, and basically, if you are driving anywhere

46
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 2: near the Vegas Strip, you can look out twenty four

47
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 2: to seven and see this gigantic ball. It's a building. Okay,

48
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 2: it's a huge building, but it's shaped like a ball,

49
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 2: and it's sitting off the side of the strip next

50
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 2: to the Venetian and the entire outside of it is

51
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 2: covered with LEDs and so it is. It's I think

52
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 2: it's the largest LED screen in the world. And they

53
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 2: are always putting weird and interesting images on the outside

54
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 2: of this ball. So just in terms of a visual spectacle,

55
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 2: anywhere you are in Vegas, you'll look over there and

56
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 2: at first you'd think you're seeing the sun rising or

57
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 2: the moon or something like that, but then they have

58
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 2: all these like abstract designs that they'll put on it,

59
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 2: and it's just a magnificent looking thing. But when you

60
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:46,919
Speaker 2: go inside there, it actually has a theater within with

61
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 2: eighteen thousand, six hundred seats and there's a lobby that's

62
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: got robots that have AI and holograms. And I'm going

63
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 2: to tell you about all that stuff in a second,

64
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 2: because I was one of the first people in the

65
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 2: world to get to go into the Sphere. This was

66
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 2: just like a couple days ago. And see what the

67
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,119
Speaker 2: big deal is because they've spent the company that built

68
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 2: it spent around two and a half billion dollars with

69
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: a billion with a B, around two and a half

70
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: billion dollars over the past few years to create this

71
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 2: one of the largest, most amazing venues in the world.

72
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 2: It's so big that the statue of Liberty can fit

73
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 2: inside with the pedestal. Okay, so the statue of Liberty

74
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 2: with the pedestal can go inside this thing and with

75
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 2: room to spare with with like another fifty feet or whatever.

76
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 2: I'm going to bring up the stats and I'm gonna

77
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 2: h U two has been playing there. They debuted it

78
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 2: this month with U two playing, and it's sold out,

79
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 2: like you know you can imagine. So all right, let

80
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 2: me just tell you real quick some of the basic

81
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: stats on this thing called Sphere. Look this up on

82
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 2: the internet. It says here it is an eighteen thousand,

83
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 2: six hundred c auditorium marketed for its immersive video and

84
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 2: audio capabilities, which include a sixteen K Yeah, you think

85
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 2: four K is impressive, sixteen K resolution, wrap around interior

86
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 2: led screen speakers with beam forming and wave filled synthesis technologies,

87
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 2: and four D physical effects. I'll get back to the

88
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 2: speaker thing in a minute. But the sphere is three

89
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty six feet high. That's one hundred and

90
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 2: twelve meters and five hundred and sixteen feet wide at

91
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 2: its broadest point, that's one hundred and fifty seven meters.

92
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 2: And this thing, I mean like they're all these all

93
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 2: these like fact sheets out there that tell you about

94
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 2: just how big it is and how amazing it is.

95
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 2: And it says that they used the fourth largest crawler

96
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 2: crane in the world to build this thing. They had

97
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 2: to get cranes to build the crane, and it took

98
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 2: eighteen days to assemble it. The clarity of the screen

99
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 2: on the outside and inside of this thing is one

100
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 2: hundred times clearer than today's best HDTVs. The screen inside

101
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 2: let's see. I'm not sure if it's the inside one

102
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: or the outside, but it says the screen covers an

103
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 2: area larger than three football fields. Everything is programmable. Here's

104
00:07:54,960 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 2: what's interesting about this beam forming audio technology. Basically, they

105
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 2: have something like one hundred and fifty thousand speakers inside

106
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 2: the auditorium within the sphere, and these speakers are so

107
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 2: advanced that they can target your actual individual seat, so

108
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: that if you have got an audience full of people

109
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 2: from all over the world, then it if you're watching

110
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 2: a movie of some kind in there, it can beam

111
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 2: the language that you speak to your seat and only

112
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 2: you will hear that. So one guy could be sitting

113
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 2: there in his seat listening to the dialogue in English,

114
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 2: the person to his left is listening to it in

115
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 2: Mandarin Chinese, the person to the right is listening to

116
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: it in Spanish, and each person only hears the language

117
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 2: that that person understands. There's no cross. It's absolutely astounding

118
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 2: how they have been able to do all this. This

119
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 2: is the sphere, and you know the thing is everything

120
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 2: is so busy in Vegas right now. They have the

121
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 2: Formula One race coming up, The Super Bowl is going

122
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 2: to be here in February. There are all these new

123
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 2: big hotels opening, the Fountain Blue with the MSG Sphere,

124
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 2: the Durango, all this new stuff is opening. People who

125
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: live around here only complaint. They're like, this is bad.

126
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:42,239
Speaker 2: The traffic is just terrible, atrocious. The road construction is insane.

127
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 4: You know.

128
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,959
Speaker 2: It's like all you hear is complaints about how busy

129
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: Vegas is getting. But I therefore probably would not have

130
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 2: actually gone down this soon to the Sphere to be

131
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 2: one of the first people inside if I did not

132
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 2: have another reason. And it turns out, before I tell

133
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 2: you what it was like being inside the sphere and

134
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 2: what I saw when I was talking to robots and

135
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 2: holograms and all that stuff, let me tell you why

136
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 2: I went down there. Of course, here in Las Vegas,

137
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 2: one of the biggest companies that owns a bunch of

138
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 2: the casinos is Caesar's Entertainment, the current incarnation of Caesar's.

139
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 2: They not only owned Caesar's Palace, but they own Hera's,

140
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: the Link, the Paris Planet, Hollywood, the Flamingo. I mean,

141
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 2: they own a bunch of stuff. And earlier this year,

142
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 2: I was at Caesar's Palace and I was doing some gambling,

143
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 2: and I guess they liked what they saw for one

144
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 2: reason or another, and they sent me an offer, and

145
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 2: they said, mister Warren, we are inviting you to participate

146
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 2: in a slot tournament is Caesar's slot tournament? Do you

147
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 2: know how a slot tournament works? I'd never been invited

148
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 2: to participate and one before. Well, okay, we're gonna come

149
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 2: up on a break here soon. When we come back,

150
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you what a slot tournament is, and

151
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 2: what it was like for me to go through a

152
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 2: slot tournament experience, and what all the little catches and

153
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 2: stuff are that you might want to know about. But

154
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 2: then I'm going to get back to this strange and

155
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: amazing glimpse of the future, the technology inside the sphere.

156
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 2: But that's not all. Once I got on a roll,

157
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 2: I was just like, I want to just go see

158
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 2: what all the new futuristic tech is in Vegas. And

159
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 2: so I ended up going to a movie prop museum,

160
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 2: and yes, I bought something. What do you think I bought?

161
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 2: What do you think is a part of my collection

162
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 2: in my living room right now? I swear I could

163
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 2: sell tickets to my living room. I'll tell you all

164
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 2: about that here shortly. Goodness, it's one of those shows.

165
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 2: Too much to talk about so little time. By the way, amazingly, miraculously,

166
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 2: our little dog is still alive, and I'm telling you

167
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 2: it's absolutely amazing, but I'm sorry to say that I

168
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 2: don't know if I'll be able to report that the

169
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 2: next time I record this podcast. She wants to be

170
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 2: with us, and we want her to be with us

171
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: for at least a few more years, but this cancer

172
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 2: she has is very, very aggressive, and I just want

173
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 2: to thank you again for all of your prayers and

174
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 2: your supports and your manifestation thoughts, and just remember, if

192
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 2: Welcome back to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast

193
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: to Coast AM Paranormal Podcast Network. I am your host,

194
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 2: the Wizard of Weird, Joshua P. A. Warren, Beaming into

195
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 2: your wormhole brain from my studio in Sin's City, Las Vegas, Nevada,

196
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 2: where every day is golden and every night is silver.

197
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 2: Gietatos zoume. And you know, if you go to casinos

198
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 2: sometimes and gamble, it really doesn't matter if you win

199
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 2: a lot or you lose a lot. They want you

200
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 2: to keep coming back because the people who designed the

201
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 2: casino are mathematicians, and all they believe is if you

202
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 2: keep playing long enough, you're eventually going to lose. It

203
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 2: never crosses their mind, well, this person might come back

204
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 2: and win so much money they clean us out because

205
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 2: they don't believe in anything but statistics and the law

206
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 2: of averages, and so you never know when you're going

207
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 2: to get an invite to be part of a special

208
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 2: promotion because you either win too much or you lose

209
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 2: too much, whatever it is. But you know, Caesarus decided

210
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 2: to invite me to do this tournament. They said, we

211
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 2: will give you a free room for three nights. The

212
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 2: tournament was actually going to be at Planet Hollywood, but

213
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 2: they said that I couldn't stay at Planet Hollywood, so

214
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 2: I had to pick another hotel. So I picked the Link,

215
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 2: which is not too far away. I just because I'd

216
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 2: never been to the Link, so it kind of sucked

217
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 2: right off the bat that you couldn't stay at the

218
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 2: place where the tournament was going to be. And I

219
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 2: guess before I continue, I should clarify again if you

220
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 2: have no idea what a slot tournament is, because it

221
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 2: sounds like one of the dumbest, silliest concepts ever, and

222
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 2: it really kind of is. Basically, what they do is

223
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 2: they assign you a time to show up and register

224
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 2: and then they say, okay, we have this big bank

225
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 2: of slot machines here and they are all turned to

226
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 2: tournament mode, meaning that it cost you nothing to participate.

227
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 2: You do not spend one penny. The machines only sit

228
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 2: there and rack up points instead of dollars, And so

229
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 2: they assign you a machine along with a bunch of

230
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 2: other people, and they might give you a round which

231
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: lasts anywhere from three minutes up to ten minutes, depending

232
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 2: on the type of machine, And in my case, it

233
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 2: was a ten minute round, and all you do is

234
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 2: just pound the spin button as many times as you

235
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 2: can in that ten minute period. Now, I've seen other

236
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 2: slot tournaments where they have some extra stuff, like they

237
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 2: may have some symbols on the screen that you have

238
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 2: to touch to get bonuses and stuff, but in this

239
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 2: particular case, these were like old school double diamond machines.

240
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 2: You sit down, you get ten minutes, and you just

241
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 2: pound that button, and at the end of that ten minutes,

242
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 2: whoever it gets the most points wins. And this was

243
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 2: a one hundred and fifty thousand dollars slot tournament, meaning

244
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 2: that whoever won the tournament, whoever got the most points

245
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 2: during the tournament, would get one hundred and fifty thousand

246
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 2: dollars or or something big. Maybe it was. They might

247
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 2: not get the whole hundred and fifty on it, but

248
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 2: they would get like at least fifty thousand dollars in

249
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 2: free play put on their player's card, meaning that you

250
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 2: could go into the casino and you basically get to

251
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:03,719
Speaker 2: gamble fifty thousand dollars or whatever for free, you know,

252
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 2: on the house for seventy two hours. So that's how

253
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 2: that that's how it works. They pay you in player points.

254
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 2: I will tell you right off the bat that, Okay,

255
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 2: it's true. They did give me three free nights stay,

256
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 2: and it was a good deal. If I didn't live

257
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 2: in Vegas, it would have been a really good deal.

258
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 2: But I just came back to my house every night.

259
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 2: You know, we're dealing with a sick dog here, and

260
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 2: I didn't feel like packing your bag. But it was

261
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 2: kind of cool to have a base camp on the strip.

262
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 2: Still had to pay a resort fee, but it wasn't

263
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 2: that bad. I mean, it was still you know, it

264
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 2: was a good deal to have a free room for

265
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 2: three nights. But I felt that was a little bit

266
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 2: misled because it turns out that I thought, you know,

267
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 2: maybe I could just like show up one day and

268
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 2: register and then come back the next day and play,

269
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 2: and that would be in it. This turned into a

270
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 2: three day thing. So I had to show up one

271
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 2: morning and register, and then show show up the next

272
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 2: morning and do and then show up the third morning

273
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 2: and do round two, and then wait around all day

274
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 2: until nine o'clock on that last night to go to

275
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,400
Speaker 2: a kiosk and pop my card in and see if

276
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 2: I had won anything. So if I had known in advance, again,

277
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 2: I'd never done one of these before. If I'd known

278
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 2: it was going to be that time consuming it was

279
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 2: going to eat up three days of my time on

280
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 2: the strip, I would not have done it. I would

281
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 2: go do a slot tournament again if everything could be

282
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 2: done one day, because it was pretty fun. And look,

283
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,719
Speaker 2: so you go there, you sit down, they say on

284
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 2: your marks, get set, go, and you know it's ultimately

285
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 2: about how lucky you are on the machine, I guess.

286
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 2: But so I did this for three days, and then

287
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 2: I went that night and I popped my player's card

288
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 2: in to see how much money I won. And I'm

289
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 2: going to tell you how much money I won from

290
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 2: this slot turn at the end of the show. Yes,

291
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 2: I'm gonna make you wait on that. But there also

292
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 2: is a twist ending that comes after that. I've had

293
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 2: a lot of twist endings lately. I'm not trying to

294
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 2: do that. It just that's just the way my life goes.

295
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 2: So anyway, that's why that I was. I was even

296
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 2: down there around the strip right now, and so that's

297
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,880
Speaker 2: why I said to Lauren, you know what, we're gonna

298
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 2: be there doing this slot tournament, so we may as

299
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 2: well go see the sphere. All right, So let's get

300
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: back to the sphere. Uh. For one thing, the whole

301
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 2: area around the outside of the Sphere is a cluster,

302
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 2: you know what. Okay, the parking and all that. They

303
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 2: can't taxis can't even drop you off properly. If you're

304
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 2: gonna go to the Sphere, your best bet is to

305
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 2: go to the Venetian and then walk over these like

306
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 2: skywalks and stuff from the Venetian to the Sphere, and

307
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 2: it takes for It's very very long. It's actually quite strenuous.

308
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 2: It's very uncomfortable. And then finally when you get to

309
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 2: outside the lobby where you have to go through security,

310
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 2: I think we stood there for a good forty five

311
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 2: minutes before they would let us in. So right off

312
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 2: the bat, it was it was a pain just to

313
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 2: get into the Sphere, and we actually showed up like

314
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 2: an hour early to see if maybe we could get

315
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 2: an advantage to kind of get in ahead of the crowds,

316
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 2: and they're like, nope, you gotta wait, you know. So, yeah,

317
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 2: if you're gonna go, that's my advice to you go

318
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,120
Speaker 2: to the Venetian and start really early and walk through there,

319
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 2: and then you're going to stand in the line for

320
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 2: forty five minutes and it sucks, all right. So then

321
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,879
Speaker 2: once you get into the lobby, the lobby has this huge, big,

322
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 2: soaring ceiling and there are all these escalators that take

323
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,239
Speaker 2: you up to whatever level you're gonna be at. You

324
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 2: watch the show and it turns out that like right now, yes,

325
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 2: U two is performing live some nights, but the other

326
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 2: nights they just have a movie that they show there

327
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 2: and it's called Postcard from Earth. And this was a

328
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 2: movie that was shot specifically for the sphere by filmmaker

329
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: Darren Aronofsky. And he's done movies in Hollywood like Pie,

330
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 2: Requiem for a Dream, The Fountain, The Wrestler, Black Swan,

331
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 2: most recently The Well. He's a very highly regarded filmmaker

332
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 2: and so they sent him around the world to shoot

333
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 2: this amazing fifty minute kind of documentary thing using technology

334
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,920
Speaker 2: that could actually be presented properly inside the sphere, because

335
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,479
Speaker 2: when you go into the sphere, it's the screen. There

336
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,160
Speaker 2: is one of a I'll get back to them, all right,

337
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 2: So in the lobby, because they make you hang out

338
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 2: in the lobby for like I don't know, an hour

339
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 2: or maybe almost an hour before they start letting you

340
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 2: be seated in the theater for the show that you

341
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 2: came for. And this cost us for we didn't get

342
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 2: the best seats. The best seats in the house were

343
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 2: like two hundred and fifty dollars a person, and I

344
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 2: was like, I can't pay two hundred and fifty dollars

345
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 2: to watch a fifty minute movie. I mean, I just

346
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 2: couldn't bring myself to do that. But I got some

347
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 2: pretty good seats for like eighty nine dollars a person

348
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 2: and right on the end of a rope because I

349
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 2: don't want to sit in the middle of her roads.

350
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 2: I'm a kind of a big guy. It's too claustrophobic.

351
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 2: So we got some good I thought we got some

352
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 2: excellent seats, but still, you know, you're talking two hundred

353
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 2: bucks for two people to sit there and watch a

354
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 2: movie for fifty minutes. Uh so when you get into

355
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 2: the lobby, all the drinks in food cost a fortune.

356
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 2: Of course, the first thing you notice is the holograms,

357
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 2: and Laren and I started laughing because they spent two

358
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 2: and a half billion dollars making this thing, and the

359
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 2: holograms were just those holograms that you can buy on

360
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 2: the internet that are fans. They're literally fans. They have

361
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 2: spinning blades with LEDs. Now. Look, they're still cool. I

362
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 2: own some of those and we even use them in

363
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 2: the Creepy Vegas Show. But it's a fan that has

364
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 2: LEDs on it and it spins and it kind of

365
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 2: looks like an image is floating in air. Now, yes

366
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 2: they had a lot of them, and yes it was impressive,

367
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 2: but Lauren and I were laughing about the fact that

368
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 2: you can go to a Paranormal Vegas or Creepy Vegas

369
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 2: show produced by the great and Terrible Joshua P. Warren

370
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 2: and have the same level of technology that you get

371
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 2: looking at the holograms at the two and a half

372
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 2: billion dollar Sphere. I swear I'm not trying to leave

373
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 2: a negative review for the Sphere. I'm just saying I

374
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 2: thought maybe we would see some more advanced form of

375
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 2: holograph or hologram. And then they have a handful of

376
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 2: robots that are strewn around there. But the robots, you know,

377
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 2: their life size, kind of like female android looking robots.

378
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 2: They have AI and some of them will talk to you.

379
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 2: But the problem is they're they're on ground level and

380
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 2: everybody just like crowds around them, and you can't even

381
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 2: really get up next to them so easily. Wow, I

382
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 2: didn't realize this review was going to sound so uh.

383
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,919
Speaker 2: I'm not a negative Nancy here. I'm just telling you

384
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 2: all right, when we come back, I'm going to tell

385
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 2: you what it's actually like to go sit down inside

386
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 2: the Magnificent Sphere in Las Vegas. Oh, and then I

387
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 2: have a premonition of a disaster. I'm Joshua P. Warren,

405
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:36,119
Speaker 2: Welcome back to Strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast

406
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,159
Speaker 2: to Coast. I am Paranormal Podcast Network. I am your host,

407
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 2: Joshua P. Warren, and this is the show where the

408
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 2: unusual becomes usual. You know, when you live here in Vegas,

409
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 2: sometimes you get these updates on the water situation, the

410
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 2: drought from the Southern Nevada Water Authority. And they just

411
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 2: sent one out. It's just a flyer you get in

412
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 2: the mill and it said, and of course you remember

413
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 2: we did this experiment last year to increase the water

414
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 2: levels at Lake Mead, and it says here a Tier

415
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 2: one shortage is projected for twenty twenty four, which is

416
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 2: an ongoing improvement over this year's Tier two shortage, Gaining

417
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 2: southern Nevada access to an additional four thousand acre feet

418
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 2: of Colorado River water, or about one point three billion gallons.

419
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 2: A wet winter, combined with lower water demands, have raised

420
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 2: Lake Mead water levels this year. I told you, I

421
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 2: told you we were going to do it, and we

422
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 2: did it. Now are we going to do it again

423
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 2: this winter? No, We're going to hold off this winter.

424
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 2: I have my reasons for trying to keep things in

425
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 2: balance by holding off. So I think you will see

426
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 2: that this winter will not produce as much snow as

427
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 2: last winter until we all decide to manifest snow again. Okay,

428
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 2: So here's the thing about going into the sphere. When

429
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 2: you finally walk into this theater, look, I don't know,

430
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 2: to me, it looked bigger than any Imax screen I've

431
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 2: ever seen. The stadium seating there with eighteen thousand, six

432
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 2: hundred seats, It's it's incredibly steep, incredibly steep, and when

433
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 2: you sit down, you're you're just facing this interior of

434
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 2: this gigantic dome. So it just looks like a huge

435
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 2: concave screen and when the movie starts and it really

436
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 2: the movie really gets gone. It was impressive. Now let

437
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 2: me just tell you these the robots and the lobby,

438
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 2: Like I said, it was kind of hard to get

439
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 2: close to them, and if you could, they would just

440
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 2: mainly talk about how great the sphere was, or if

441
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 2: you ask one of question that had AI, they would

442
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 2: give you some kind of like politically correct answer. Here's

443
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 2: the thing about this movie, and I'm not gonna spoil

444
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 2: it for anybody. I could have done without the moral

445
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 2: lesson of the movie. Okay, we go to these things

446
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 2: to enjoy ourselves and try to forget about our problems,

447
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 2: and there was this whole big lesson like, oh, here's

448
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 2: how bad people are, you know, for the for the

449
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 2: we're ruining the world kind of thing. But in terms

450
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 2: of technology itself, the the image was it was crystal clear.

451
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 2: It was amazing. It was it wrapped around you. It

452
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 2: covered your entire field division. It was like being there.

453
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 2: Every scene that you were shown, you felt like you

454
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 2: were there, and it was it was realistic, And to me,

455
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:59,479
Speaker 2: the coolest part was that when you watch an image

456
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 2: project on a concave screen like that, it does have

457
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 2: a three D effect, but it's a very natural, realistic

458
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 2: looking three D, as opposed to the type of three

459
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 2: D that you are used to seeing in theaters where

460
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 2: everything pops so much that it looks cool, but it

461
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 2: doesn't actually look that way in reality. Reality is much

462
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 2: more subtle. This captures the more realistic three D effect

463
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 2: that you get viewing reality. So it was very much

464
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 2: worth it to see that. Now whether or not it's

465
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 2: worth you paying fifty dollars or one hundred dollars or

466
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty dollars, well you have to figure

467
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,959
Speaker 2: that out for yourself, even with inflation. I'm not going

468
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 2: to tell you know what you should or should not

469
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 2: be paying it, just you know, it depends on what

470
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 2: you what you're into, how much value this experience would

471
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 2: have to you. But it was, it was. I really

472
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 2: enjoyed it. In fact, I wish all movies were fifty minutes.

473
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 2: But if you're on a budget and you can't make

474
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 2: it to Las Vegas and you don't want to pay

475
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 2: that kind of money for a ticket, if you go

476
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 2: to my website and order my Tibetan emos for like

477
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 2: twenty four to ninety five that are little domes that

478
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 2: go over your eyes. For that price and for not

479
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 2: leaving your house, it's a pretty it'll give you a

480
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 2: pretty good idea of what the sphere is like. So

481
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 2: I enjoyed the experience. It was a pain to get

482
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 2: in there, and I'm glad I did it, and it

483
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 2: was too expensive in my opinion, but it was really cool.

484
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 2: So now here is my premonition. And I hate to

485
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 2: say this because I don't want to manifest it, but

486
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 2: I figure I may as well make a prediction here

487
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas. Everybody knows if you spend any time

488
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 2: here that there are a lot of people who come

489
00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 2: here and they wear it stream high hill shoes and

490
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 2: they're drinking and they're tipsy. And I cannot tell you.

491
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 2: As Lauren and I were sitting there watching or getting

492
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 2: ready for this movie to start in the sphere, I

493
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 2: cannot tell you how many how many people, especially you know,

494
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 2: young ladies who obviously were tipsy wearing these high hills,

495
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 2: were struggling to walk up those extremely steep stairs. And

496
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 2: some of them are not as fit as they might

497
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 2: think they are. And I saw people look like they

498
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 2: were about to pass out, and so I just you know,

499
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 2: I would not want to have the insurance policy on

500
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 2: that place because I think in Vegas with stairs that

501
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 2: are that steep and people running around drinking wearing high

502
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 2: hills like that, I think very soon somebody is going

503
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 2: to absolutely and lose it and have a horrific tumble

504
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 2: down those stairs. That's going to make the stairs scene

505
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 2: from The Exorcist look like a kindergarten playground. That's just

506
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 2: what I see happening. I'm kind of surprised and hasn't

507
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 2: happened already, So be very very very careful if you

508
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 2: visit the sphere as you go up and down those stairs.

509
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 2: So so, anyway, had a good time, and I guess

510
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 2: that's the best I can capture it for you right

511
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 2: now now. As I was running around the strip during

512
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,959
Speaker 2: those few days, I did go somewhere that I thought,

513
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 2: actually to me, was more impressive in terms of just

514
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 2: like the level of quality. It's called the Paradox Museum,

515
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 2: and when you go to there, and I don't know

516
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 2: how long it's going to be there, if it's one

517
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 2: of those things they just set up for a little while,

518
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 2: it kind of looked cheesy when I saw the advertisements

519
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 2: for it because it just looked like a place for

520
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 2: people to go and take selfies. And it's like, you know,

521
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,399
Speaker 2: I'm I'm pushing fifty years old at this point. I'm

522
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 2: not real big on running around and taking selfies. Actually,

523
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 2: i'll be forty seven, so I guess I better not

524
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 2: use the Big five oh yet. But you know what,

525
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 2: when I got there, it was so cool because the

526
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,399
Speaker 2: people who report on the Paradox Museum they just show

527
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 2: themselves with their selfies because they are you know, they're narcissists.

528
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:38,280
Speaker 2: But they actually had real holograms there that were extremely cool.

529
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 2: They had a hall of mirrors that was amazing. I

530
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 2: took a picture of myself. They had a real cool

531
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,239
Speaker 2: setup where you're sitting at a poker table and it

532
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,800
Speaker 2: looks like you're playing poker with five life size versions

533
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 2: of yourself, life size clones all using mirrors. That was

534
00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 2: pretty neat. They even had what kind of was like

535
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 2: a life sized Devil's toy box that was partial. And

536
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 2: the weird thing is I started taking pictures when I

537
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 2: was in there by myself, and I thought, well, this

538
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 2: will be neat. I can post this stuff online and

539
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 2: tell everybody, look here, I am in a big Devil's

540
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 2: toy box. None of those pictures turned out, none of

541
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 2: I must have taken five or six pictures. All my

542
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 2: other pictures turned out. None of them turned out in

543
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 2: the Devil's the Devil's Toy box. But they also had

544
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 2: this robotic hand there that I thought was impressive because

545
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 2: unlike you know, the whole AI thing which everybody and

546
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 2: anybody can access now, they had a robotic hand there

547
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 2: that was large. It was like maybe three or four

548
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 2: times the size of a normal human hand. And on

549
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 2: one fingertip there was a magic wand balanced and they said, uh,

550
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 2: go ahead, mess with that wand and that hand will

551
00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,719
Speaker 2: automatically rebalance it. And so you can. You could hit

552
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 2: that wand and because it was you know, it was

553
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 2: attached by a little pivot point, you could hit that

554
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 2: wand and swing it in any kind of crazy direction.

555
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 2: And that hand had gyroscopes and would automatically adjust and

556
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 2: keep that wand perfectly balanced upright. That was cool. So

557
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 2: I like the Paradox Museum, and I found another really

558
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 2: cool place you should visit if you are going to

559
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 2: be around Vegas, around Fremont Street. It's called the Movie

560
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:37,479
Speaker 2: Prop Experience. And when you go in there, not only

561
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 2: do they have a bunch of props from famous movies,

562
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 2: but the coolest thing is that they have a gift

563
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 2: shop where you can buy you could actually purchase some

564
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:53,800
Speaker 2: real movie props from your favorite films. And so, you know,

565
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 2: I went in there and they had well, they had

566
00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:00,240
Speaker 2: a cool statue from the movie Batman with Michael Keathon,

567
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 2: and then they had a Chucky doll from one of

568
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 2: the movies. And speaking of the Devil's Toy Box, they

569
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 2: had one of the actual hell razor boxes used in

570
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 2: that movie. They had one of the original production photographs

571
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 2: made for The Shining you know, the Stanley Kubrick movie

572
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 2: with Jack Nicholson, where at the end of the movie

573
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,319
Speaker 2: they show that picture of Jack Nicholson standing in a

574
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 2: ballroom in the nineteen twenties with all the people behind him.

575
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 2: And they had one of those actual production pictures and

576
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 2: that was cool to be able to see all the

577
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 2: detail in that. And boy, they did a good job

578
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 2: making that realistic. But I saw something in the gift

579
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 2: shop and I go, Okay, I'm buying that. I'm buying that.

580
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,439
Speaker 2: When we come back from this break, I'll tell you

581
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 2: what I bought from my own private collection. I'm going

582
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 2: to tell you how much money that I won in

583

Speaker 2: the slot tournament, and I may even have time to

584

Speaker 2: strange Things on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast Paranormal

603
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 2: podcast Network. I am your host, Joshua P. Warren. And

604
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:10,840
Speaker 2: when I walked into the gift shop at the Movie

605
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 2: Prop Experience on Fremont Street there in Las Vegas, I

606
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 2: saw they had a piece of actual kryptonite from the

607
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:30,280
Speaker 2: movie Superman Returns starring Brandon Routh from two thousand and six.

608
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:35,320
Speaker 2: Now that is not one of my favorite Superman movies,

609
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 2: but it is so hard to find actual kryptonite from

610
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 2: a movie like that, a real big, mainstream Superman movie.

611
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 2: And I was like, yeah, that that's going to my collection.

612
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 2: And it comes on a little stand that has a

613
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 2: light under it that it looks like moldovite. Love it.

614
00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:59,840
Speaker 2: So I talked to the fella there and then the

615
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:05,000
Speaker 2: lady there, and we worked out a good price. And

616
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 2: as a matter of fact, I can't say enough good

617
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 2: things because they even ended up throwing in some extra

618
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 2: kryptonite for me as well. So I now have in

619
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 2: my living room among my other things that are from movies,

620
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 2: for example, like I have a piece of the set

621
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 2: from Plan Now Plan nine from Outer Space. I mean

622
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 2: that's pretty rare. I have a piece of Kryptonite from

623
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 2: a Superman movie? Hey, how much would you pay if

624
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 2: I were to sell a ticket for you to come

625
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 2: to my house and hang out with me for an

626
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 2: evening in Las Vegas and let me just show you

627
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,320
Speaker 2: my collection and all my weird stuff. I'm just curious.

628
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 2: I'm not saying I would ever do that, but I

629
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:52,840
Speaker 2: always say, like I could sell tickets to my house.

630
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:56,880
Speaker 2: I wonder how much you would pay for that? But anyway,

631
00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 2: you know what, go and check out the website for

632
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:05,879
Speaker 2: this place, heroprop dot com h E R O p

633
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,840
Speaker 2: r OP heroprop dot com and look at some of

634
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:12,800
Speaker 2: the cool movie props that they're selling. Okay, the clock

635
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 2: is ticking. Here's what happened. I spent three days based

636
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 2: around Planet Hollywood on the strip doing this slot tournament,

637
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 2: and I think I scored some pretty high points. And

638
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 2: then on the last night, I went to the Kiosk

639
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 2: and I popped my card in to see how much

640
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 2: I won, and I won one hundred dollars in free play.

641
00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:47,440
Speaker 2: Now that is what we call in Vegas asando. And

642
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 2: if you don't know what that means, go to YouTube

643
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 2: and watch a guy named Vegas Matt. It's disappointing, so

644
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 2: I would not devote that much time to a slot

645
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 2: tournament again just for one hundred dollars. And I thought

646
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,320
Speaker 2: it was kind of interesting because there were seven hundred

647
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 2: and fifty people who participated in that slot tournament, and

648
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 2: I wonder like, well, how would we know that anybody

649
00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:15,160
Speaker 2: got more than one hundred dollars. I'm not casting doubt

650
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:17,799
Speaker 2: on the good people at Caesar's, but I will tell

651
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 2: you this. The gambling that we did at Caesars, you know,

652
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,960
Speaker 2: it was okay. But at a certain point, Lauren and

653
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 2: I we crossed the street and we ended up over

654
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 2: at the Mirage, which is owned by different company. The

655
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 2: Mirage will soon be the hard Rock, And we started

656
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 2: winning a lot over there, and we were there for

657
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 2: a few hours, and right when we were about to leave,

658
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 2: I realized that I had a ticket. You know how

659
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,799
Speaker 2: you get these gambling tickets that have yeah, So I

660
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,440
Speaker 2: was like, oh, I got a ticket with a dollar

661
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:54,839
Speaker 2: on it. So right, literally the last thing we did

662
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 2: as we were about to walk out the door, as

663
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:01,240
Speaker 2: I put this dollar in an old school slot machine

664
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:06,479
Speaker 2: that had one pay line, hit the button and won

665
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:12,440
Speaker 2: four hundred dollars. So that's the amazing thing. It's like

666
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 2: my slot tournament experiment gave me one hundred dollars in

667
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 2: free play, which actually did not end up producing anything

668
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 2: for me. But I crossed the street and I go

669
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 2: to the Mirage and I put a dollar in a

670
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 2: machine and hit the button, and that one dollar gives

671
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 2: me four hundred dollars of tangible money that I cash

672
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:36,239
Speaker 2: out and put in my wallet. So that's gambling for you, right, Oh,

673
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:38,400
Speaker 2: I have I have more stories for you about Okay,

674
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 2: let me leave you with this because it's new. A

675
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 2: few nights ago, my good friend, Missy Hill, who we've

676
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 2: done each other a long time. She hosts the Haunted

677
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:51,640
Speaker 2: Built more village tour than we do through Haunted Ashville.

678
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 2: She contacted me and she said that she and a

679
00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:58,319
Speaker 2: friend were coming back from chero Keen, North Carolina. This

680
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:00,879
Speaker 2: is just a few nights ago, and they were going

681
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,480
Speaker 2: through an area where a lot of people have seen Bigfoot.

682
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 2: And I don't know if she pulled over, or if

683
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 2: she had her window open or what, but she said

684
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,759
Speaker 2: she heard a sound that could only be a bigfoot,

685
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:20,799
Speaker 2: and she made a recording of herself trying to reproduce

686
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 2: this sound, and she sent it to me and I said, Missy,

687
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 2: you've got to let me play this on the podcast.

688
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 2: Here is what Missy Hill sent me that she said

689
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 2: she believes is the sound of a bigfoot in the

690
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 2: mountains of western North Carolina. Are you ready? Here we go.

691
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 5: To me, it sounds like a screen talking, maybe singing

692
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 5: some kind of call. All at once, here we go.

693
00:46:44,000 --> 00:47:00,320
Speaker 5: But this is a higher version because it was definitely masculine.

694
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 2: Now I laughed so hard hearing Missy do her best

695
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 2: to reproduce this bigfoot sound that I said, Okay, I

696
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 2: gotta play this on the podcast. But furthermore, you said

697
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 2: it was it was deeper, it was. It was a

698
00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:20,839
Speaker 2: more masculine sounding version. Let me see if I can

699
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:25,880
Speaker 2: jump onto my audio editor here and bring down the levels,

700
00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:28,600
Speaker 2: bring down the pitch, and let's see if I can

701
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 2: create something more like what you heard. And I created this.

702
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 2: I'm about to play it for you, and I sent

703
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:39,120
Speaker 2: it to her and she goes, yes, that's it all right.

704
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 2: So as far as I'm concerned, she has verified what

705
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:48,280
Speaker 2: you were about to hear now is what she actually

706
00:47:48,320 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 2: heard and believes maybe a bigfoot. Well, what do you

707
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:15,359
Speaker 2: think it sounds pretty beastly to me. Missy, thank you

708
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:18,239
Speaker 2: for sending that to us. And now that you know

709
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:22,160
Speaker 2: where this guy may hang out, hopefully next time you

710
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 2: can bring an audio recorder for you and get something

711
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 2: directly from the wilderness. But I wanted to make sure

712
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:33,080
Speaker 2: we got that in there tonight since it's new, and hey,

713
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:34,760
Speaker 2: I'm doing well. I still have a couple of minutes

714
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 2: left before it's time to officially end the show, So

715
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:39,640
Speaker 2: let me just tell you a couple of things. Since

716
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 2: the show has been primarily about Las Vegas. After I

717
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 2: got back recently from my trip to Colorado with my family,

718
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:54,800
Speaker 2: it became my wife, Lauren's birthday, so her birthday September

719
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 2: twenty fourth, and so we went out and we ran

720
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 2: around and we we're back, you know, in the strip vicinity.

721
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:07,799
Speaker 2: We went to hofbrow House, which is a German, you know,

722
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 2: Bavarian restaurant here in the Vegas area. You can look

723
00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 2: it up. It's a reproduction of an old beer hall

724
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 2: from Munich, Germany that goes back hundreds of years. But

725
00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:24,200
Speaker 2: the funny thing about that day that I've been meaning

726
00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:27,279
Speaker 2: to tell you for a little while is that we

727
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 2: ended up going into a casino, where Lauren did very well.

728
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 2: And at one point she and I were sitting there

729
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,640
Speaker 2: in a machine and I looked over and to my

730
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:44,320
Speaker 2: left near the lobby was we Man from the Jackass series,

731
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,919
Speaker 2: you know it started on MTV all those years ago

732
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 2: and all the movies, you know, we Man. We Man

733
00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:55,560
Speaker 2: was standing there and it was undeniably him. I mean,

734
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:59,080
Speaker 2: we knew immediately. Let's see what is his actual name?

735
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:05,680
Speaker 2: It is Jason Akuna. And uh so a lot of

736
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 2: times when I see celebrities, I don't go up and

737
00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 2: say anything, but this time I was like, Okay, I'm

738
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,360
Speaker 2: going to go say hi, do we Man? And Lauren

739
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 2: wouldn't though, uh she she gets too embarrassed. So I

740
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:21,240
Speaker 2: went up to we Men. He had a big dude

741
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:24,360
Speaker 2: there hanging out with him, just you know, I guess

742
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:28,080
Speaker 2: guarding him. He's a celeb, so and I was I

743
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:32,200
Speaker 2: wasn't sure, like, are you here for promotional purposes or

744
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:35,200
Speaker 2: just I wasn't sure what to think. But I also

745
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:37,800
Speaker 2: didn't want to, you know, go up and just start

746
00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:40,600
Speaker 2: you know, probing him. I just went I All I

747
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:44,359
Speaker 2: did was I walked up and I said, are you

748
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 2: cool with selfies? And he said yeah, sure, so I

749
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:53,319
Speaker 2: took a selfie with me with we men. He was

750
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:56,040
Speaker 2: really nice. And you never know when you go up

751
00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 2: to like a celebrity out of the blue, what their

752
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:01,759
Speaker 2: reaction is going to be. But he was cool. So

753
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:05,360
Speaker 2: that's just one of the nice little bonuses. I guess

754
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:09,440
Speaker 2: living in a famous, a world famous town like Las Vegas,

755
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:14,080
Speaker 2: sometimes you run into people out of the blue like

756
00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 2: that that you would just never expect. All right, my friends,

757
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:21,480
Speaker 2: hope you've enjoyed my ramblings and now sit back, relax,

758
