Episode Description
This week DefCon was in Las Vegas and along with the conference came a lot of criticism. Resorts World was one of the main hotels hosting the conference attendees and they made a lot of enemies by searching rooms and belongings. Were they out of line or is that the price we pay for safety?
In other #news Sam's Town was scammed out of $750K last year, but they finally found the person. This is a crazy story you have to hear! We also discuss Palms increasing buffet prices, an attack on Guy Fieri and Caesars prices, Dead & Company posters, water parks in the desert, no tax on tips and if Caesars is misleading with their NFL contest.
