Society & Culture:Places & Travel
Welcome back to a new year and a new season of ZorkCast! We’re kicking off season seven and 2022 with a glowing review of Steve’s return to Vegas, the events of ZorkFest 2021, and our thoughts on some of the hottest news on the Vegas strip.
After two years at home, Steve finally returned for his first ZorkFest and Vegas Visit since the start of the COVID 19 pandemic. Not only was it a fantastic ZorkFest, but it was also Steve’s birthday! We hear all about what it was like for him returning to Vegas, his premium travel highlights, and some of the changes he has noticed since he last visited.
We discuss the launch of the MGM Rewards Program in February 2022 and unpack some of the concerns that followers have been voicing. Tuning in, you’ll hear our thoughts on what we like about the program, such as the value you receive on higher tiers and their incredible app, as well as our criticisms. We also discuss the possible prioritization of gambling for tier points and status and the devaluation of earning tier points via spend.
We also discuss the legendary history of the Mirage and the news of its remodeling by Hard Rock International. To hear all about ZorkFest 2021, why nothing lasts forever in Vegas, and much more, make sure you tune in today!
