Episode Description

This week we saw a number of new deals as Vegas makes more of a value play going into the fall. Wynn has not only removed an unpopular game, but they have several smaller deals to make guests feel welcome. Just down the Strip, Caesars is also selling $5 beers at a couple of their properties!

In other news a Vegas casino that is closing has been saved...sort of. We also discuss Neon Museum's newest piece, the failure of Save the Gate, how Resorts World backtracked on their big Summer move, why XS is closing for a year and what the new Planet Hollywood patio rooms look like.

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.
