The Weekly Payload
No. 01

One deal actually worth money

A single vetted deal per issue — happy hours that end after your shift does, locals rates the casinos don't advertise. No coupon-app sludge.

No. 02

Secret #51

The free download stops at fifty. Every issue opens with one more — something about this town you didn't know last week. The count never stops.

No. 03

The neighborhood file

What's opening, what's closing, what's getting bulldozed — and where the people who work in restaurants actually eat.

No. 04

News that costs you money

Water rules, road projects, the next implosion — covered for what it does to your bill and your commute, not for how it looks on a postcard.

Exhibit A — From the Free File

Three of the fifty, declassified. Every one holds up to a fact-check — that's the house rule.

Secret No. 07 — Geography
The Strip is not in Las Vegas. Nearly all of it sits in Paradise — a paper town drawn up in 1950 to keep casino money out of City Hall. Population: your favorite bartender.
Verifiable at the county recorder's office. We checked.
Secret No. 23 — Casinos
Your players card doesn't rate what you lose. It rates ███████ ███ █████ — a number you can manage on purpose.
Declassified for subscribers. Written by someone who used to calculate it.
Secret No. 41 — Streets
One road crosses the Strip with zero traffic lights. Desert Inn passes under the Boulevard and over I-15 like neither one exists. Locals treat it accordingly.
Grade-separated since the '90s. You're welcome.

The other 47 are in the download, contributor credits and all. Clip the coupon.
