Faces And Aces: Las Vegas

People come to Las Vegas to watch amazing shows, eat gourmet meals, and have fun gambling. We want to have conversations with the performers and stage hands who make the great shows possible. We want to showcase the people who prepare and serve those wonderful meals. We want to hear stories from the dealers who make gambling fun. They are the faces of Las Vegas who don’t necessarily get the recognition they deserve. They are the heart and soul of the city and also this podcast. We want to provide a place for them to share their stories so people can get an appreciation for the hard work and dedication it takes to make their Vegas experience memorable.
