Episode 51! Welcome to the second and final part our two-part series about the Las Vegas Tunnels. We got the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to team up with Shine A Light Foundation to learn about a real and raw side of Vegas that most of us conveniently forget: The Las Vegas Homeless. Did you know there are 600 miles of drainage tunnels underneath Las Vegas? And thousands of people call these tunnels home. What started off as a podcast episode, quickly turned into a heartfelt documentary series. This is the most unique and most important project we have ever done. Thank you for watching & listening! It means the world. For more information on how to volunteer and help, go to www.shinealightlv.com.
