Inside Dope: Behind the Scenes Ep.19 [Lost Vegas]

Los Angeles, CA

It only took four years before Shane cracked open Lost Vegas. Better late than never! He started reading my book just before a trip to Las Vegas. Many themes I introduced in the book was on his mind, so we dedicated an entire episode -- Dope Stories - Episode 19 - Lost Vegas -- to Las Vegas as a drug and humorous, yet naughty dark side of Sin City. We chatted about strippers and the golden rule of Las Vegas: Don't get rolled by a hooker. We even got to tell a Vegoose story. Dope Media selections this week included an obit on Dr. Alexander "Sasha" Shulgin (a.k.a. the Godfather of E), Bob Dylan's Ramblin' Gamblin' Man, Tom Wolfe's The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Bab, and the Vegas episode of Drugs, Inc.

If you do not have a physical copy or an e-book version of Lost Vegas, you can buy either here.
