Vegas Entertainment Behind the Scenes

Welcome to the MtM Vegas podcast. The show about Las Vegas by people who know and love Las Vegas! MtM Vegas is about exploring Sin City while also having a great time. We talk about our experiences, share tips on how to save time and money in Vegas and talk to interesting people in and around town.

This Week’s Show

On this week’s MtM Vegas Podcast Mark and I are joined by Ryan Flanigan who is pulling back the curtain a bit into the entertainment world in Las Vegas. He has worked on a number of smaller shows in town (many concurrently) along with being a gondolier at the Venetian. He has a lot of cool insights into Vegas including some inside info on what it was like for his wife to work as a showgirl on Crazy Girls!

Plus we also talk status matches as a number of opportunities are available. Ryan just parlayed status into a free cruise and free nights at Wynn by matching in Atlantic City. We’ll share the full details plus also go over Ryan’s favorite hotels, restaurants and family activities in Vegas.
