LAS VEGAS - eTradeWire -- From Boardroom to Broadcast: Vegas Circle Podcast Goes Live in Las Vegas

LAS VEGAS, NV — The Vegas Circle Podcast is taking its conversations off the mic and into the room.

On February 20–21, 2026, co-hosts Paki Phillips and Chris Smith will host their first live, two-night Vegas Circle Podcast experience in Las Vegas, bringing together leaders from real estate, sports, entrepreneurship, and culture for a curated series of live conversations and networking.

Rather than a traditional conference or panel, the Vegas Circle live experience is designed to feel intimate and conversational—mirroring the unscripted dialogue that has defined the podcast since its launch.

"Vegas Circle was never about broadcasting to the masses," said Phillips. "It started as real conversations between operators. Going live allows us to bring that same energy into a shared space."

The weekend introduces Beyond the Game, a special-edition live series focused on how athletes, creators, and entrepreneurs are building influence and businesses beyond their original lanes.

Chris Smith, co-host of the podcast, says the decision to host the experience live came naturally.

"The most valuable conversations were always happening after the cameras stopped rolling," Smith said. "We wanted to create a room where those conversations were the main event."

Featured Guests

The Beyond the Game series will feature live conversations with:

• Morris Jackson II — Entrepreneur and Innovator; founder of Valhallan Esports and real estate investor
• Ricardo Laguna — Professional BMX athlete, MTV reality star, and real estate investor
• Ron "The American Dream" Johnson — Championship Boxer, CEO of Entrobox and American Dream Presents, & App Developer

Each guest brings a unique perspective on navigating multiple industries while maintaining cultural relevance and long-term business growth.

Beyond live interviews, attendees will experience a curated social environment designed for meaningful connection, not mass attendance. Capacity is intentionally limited to prioritize dialogue, access, and relationship-building.
