Episode Description

This week while we await the official June numbers, some information is leaking out that backs up the rough summer Vegas is having. With enthusiasm for Vegas fading, how bad are June's numbers going to be and what data do we have to support the rest of the summer. And why does at 28% drop in one metric mean very bad things if it holds up.

In other news Def Leppard announced a new residency at the Colosseum. We also discuss: 20 classic Vegas restaurants, Sahara's all-in hotel deal, mystery roulette at the Palms, deep diving Caesars new credit card, why Fertitta doesn't want to compete with Wynn, Smelly Cat Karaoke and how MGM has brought back some water.

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.
