Burt, Dan, and Matt talk through their plan to visit Las Vegas for 72 hours on $39 a Day, a recreation of the infamous $19 a Day trip (plus inflation). There are two main rules: 1) $39 covers all meals, lodging, travel, entertainment, and gambling; 2) they crew can’t take advantage of any offer not available to the public.
Can they make it? In this episode they discuss their careful budgeting and planning, their biggest fears, opportunities. They share the best deals, cheapest meals, scams to avoid, tricks to earning free play, and whether they think they can do it for not only $39, but possible even less than the original $19 a Day, or even for free!
Listen along, mutter under your breath at the stupidity of all, but take notes on where the last $3 graveyard shift meals are, and how you might get hundreds in free slot play.

Before embarking on our journey, we will renew our Passports to Pleasure. Should we lose them, we’ll have to visit the Pleasure Embassy to have new ones issued.A staple of our diet will be cheap hot dogs, just like the delicious one Burt is tucking into in this archive photo.Despite our tight budget, we will be chauffeured around town on spacious, modern, and very expensive vehicles. And probably getting into fights with locals about who found that half-eaten loaf of French bread under the seat first.These are the only ponies within our budget, so you can be certain we’ll be there, swilling cocktails and yelling at that lazy #3.Oh, yes, there will be cheap shrimp cocktails, lots of them, to fill the bellies with calories and sauce.There are only maybe 416 things to do in Vegas that are more fun than Bingo, but 412 of them cost money, and we’ll be playing bingo for free. We’ve been practicing our bingo yell everywhere we go in anticipation,No vacation in Las Vegas is complete without enjoying the cocktails! Just like Burt’s doing here, we expect to drink many, many strawberry daquiris the color of a used bandage.
