This week, on the Strip: We spoke to her nearly two years ago and she was hinting at a comeback she didn\u2019t want to jinx. And, in fact, Broadway legend \u2013 and Steve\u2019s gayest obsession \u2013 Patti Lupone did have a trick up her sleeve: A few months later, she returned to the Great White Way in the title role of \u201cGypsy\u201d and walked off with her first Tony award since her 1981 triumph for \u201cEvita.\u201d Lupone is back in Vegas on June 20 and 21 for shows at the Orleans, so Steve got her back on the line to see how her life has changed. Among other things, Lupone went on a bit of a rant about poor Susan Boyle and the nature of celebrity. That\u2019s coming up. Also, we check in with Mayor Oscar Goodman about Obama\u2019s recent visit and gives an update on plans to resettle the Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas. \n\nIn Banter: Cinevegas, Sheer Madness, a listeners' Wynn visit, how Steve saved $400 on his Connecticut rental car, All-In: The Poker Movie, Charo, Larry King, MGM Grand Egypt and more.\n\nBlog: VegasHappensHere.Com\nTwitter: Twitter.com/thestrippodcast\nEmail: TheStripPodcast@aol.com\nPhone: 206-424-4737
