Herded Out to the Parking Lot and Vegas's Decline into the Sphere Economy

Tim describes hating being herded like cattle after the show and reflects on how Vegas has shifted from gambling culture to spectacle culture, then jokes about Sphere revenue figures tied to the Dolan family.
- Tim hates the herding of people at concerts and the feeling of being trapped in crowds, predicting something bad will happen.
- After a show, everyone stands in a dusty hot parking lot waiting for their Uber.
- The Venetian's three-month revenue was $321 million, with $170 million coming from the Sphere and $151 million from MSG networks.
- Vegas used to be good because Tim would go there to gamble high-end, but now it's about the Sphere economy.
- Tim only wants high-end Asians in Vegas, not Americans, because he knows how Americans act and he's one of them.
- Tim plays baccarat even though he doesn't understand what's happening, sits with silent Asians smoking, and loses three grand before leaving.
