This counter-cyclical boom is the other side of the bubble that burst in 2008. Steve Friess has been up in Eureka County to experience first hand what is happening with the healthiest part of our state economy.

So we did a bloopers show on Aug 14. And the recording was all eff'd up. Steve screwed up a setting. Duh. Which meant we had to do it again. Which we did, bringing special guest Amy back in with another pizza. But this time, no chat room. Just the three of us. This is this year's bloopers show, and it's great. But it's also new, at least the non-bloopery parts, as compared to what the chat people heard. Which is kinda fun for them. Also, there's an Easter Egg at the end.
In Banter, we mulled our encounter with Mrs. Wynn in Sun Valley, talked about the de-Elvising at Aria and the likely implosion of The Harmon, we explained our strategy for packing and moving and much more. Near the end, we also discuss Steve's bingo adventure.
