Episode Description

This week Station Casinos finally revealed a portion of what their new phase 3 at Durango will look like. With the property nearly doubling in size, does it look like a Frankenstein casino? We also dive into the new burgers coming to GVR and how to save 20% at the property with an Amex Offer.

In other news yet another union may be coming to Southern Nevada, but it isn't quite what you think. We also discuss: the Vegas balancing act, Wrestlemania struggles, Circa's insane keg room & beer stats, the new name for Poker Palace and where you can now play bingo on the Las Vegas Strip!

There’s a particular energy to Las Vegas that goes far beyond the postcards, and MTM Vegas-Fun, Interesting & Absurd Sides of Vegas! captures it all through a uniquely balanced conversation. Hosts Shawn Coomer and Mark Ostermann don’t just report on the city; they live it from two essential angles. Shawn offers the grounded view of a thirty-year local, while Mark provides the keen, regular tourist perspective, having visited multiple times a year for decades. Together, they dig into everything from breaking news and major developments to the wonderfully strange and humorous stories that define the real Vegas experience. This isn't a dry travel guide. Instead, each episode feels like pulling up a chair with two friends who are deeply passionate about the city's constant evolution, its hidden corners, and its outright absurdities. They discuss cultural shifts, interview interesting people connected to the scene, and analyze what new projects or closures mean for the vibe of the Strip and beyond. The podcast releases fresh episodes twice a week, every Tuesday and Friday, making it a reliable source for staying current. Whether you're planning a trip, you're a longtime resident, or you simply find the sociology of such a singular place fascinating, their dynamic offers a rich, entertaining, and insightful look at what makes Las Vegas endlessly compelling.
