Back in July 2021, I first had the pleasure of interviewing writer, director, producer and studio head Brian Volk-Weiss for a second time. He was then promoting “Gates McFadden InvestiGates: Who Do You Think You Are?,” a new podcast series starring former “Star Trek” actress Gates McFadden. Since then, Volk-Weiss has overseen and released another season of the popular Netflix docuseries “The Toys That Made Us.” The founder and current CEO of Comedy Dynamics also continues to be the CEO of The Nacelle Company. Earlier this year, The Nacelle Company also made headlines when it announced that Volk-Weiss and Dwayne Johnson had teamed up for the new Disney+ series for “Behind The Attraction.”
Simply put, few people in entertainment are not only as prolific as Brian Volk-Weiss while still quality-centric. I explored this idea and plenty more within our follow-up conversation on November 5, 2021, as embedded below for your viewing pleasure.
More on Brian Volk-Weiss can be found here, here and here.
Thank you USA Travel IPW 2021! It was great to be back in person and talk TRAVEL!

I loved our one-on-one media marketplace meetings and walking the Brand USA hall.
The media brunch had many activities to introduce us to Las Vegas!
We had performances and prizes as well. Thank you Michelle and Nicole Kolev –the two sisters performing adagio from Mystère by Cirque de Soleil at our IPW Media Brunch 2021 on Sept 19, 2021. They were AMAZING!!!!!
Thank you to Resorts World Las Vegas for hosting our reception!
Resorts World Las Vegas opened on June 24, 2021 and seamlessly blends the technology and luxury appeal of an urban contemporary resort with the traditions and time-honored details of the international Resorts World brand. As the first integrated resort to be built on the Las Vegas Strip in over a decade, the sleek yet simple elegance of this new US$4.3 billion property was developed with the intention of bringing the elevated experience for which the Resorts World brand is known to the modern Las Vegas traveler seeking luxury, value and variety. Resorts World Las Vegas features 3,500 guest rooms and suites; an innovative, next-generation gaming floor; over 40 world-class food and beverage options; a 5,000-capacity theatre; distinct nightlife venues; an extensive retail collection boasting a wide spectrum of internationally known brands; and more.
In February 2020, Resorts World Las Vegas announced a partnership with global hospitality player, Hilton. Fusing Hilton’s decades of global industry expertise with Resorts World’s elevated service, Resorts World Las Vegas integrates three of Hilton’s premium brands into its resort campus. The development includes Las Vegas Hilton, the resort’s full-service brand; Conrad Las Vegas, Hilton’s contemporary luxury brand; and Crockfords Las Vegas, one of the first hotels to debut in the U.S from LXR, Hilton’s collection of bespoke, independent luxury properties.
I loved the synchronized swimmers from Wet Swim Show at Ayu DayClub and DJ Snake at Zouk Nightclub!
We had a private concert with DJ SNAKE at Zouk! WOW!
I loved exploring the brand new Resorts World Las Vegas. I ate at Famous Foods two days in a row and cannot wait to go back again. The robot puppies were so cute–you could almost watch them learning.
