Episode Description

This week Retro Escapes a massive "decades themed" park was announced for Las Vegas. While this new Vegas theme park project does not have land or solid investment, it has an experienced design team, tons of concept art and a dream. Is this project going to make it to the finish line or is just another Vegas "dream project" that will never happen?

In other news the Las Vegas Aces have won their 3rd championship in four years. At the same time UNLV is already bowl eligible starting the season 6-0. This comes at a time when concession prices at Vegas sports venues are going down! We also discuss: a $5K ghost hunting casino competition, the best hotels in Vegas, an update on the Guitar Tower, No Doubt coming to the Sphere and why Golden Gate's open bar promotion is proving to be very popular.

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.
