It’s the podcast your mother would’ve warned you about had she not been spending so much time planning your intervention!<\/p>\n

We’ve jammed a metric hell-ton of Vegas into this episode, so flair yourself a frosty cocktail, kick back and indulge in a buffet of Sin City scoop.<\/p>\n

The announcement of Circa Las Vegas<\/a> (formerly the 18 Fremont project) grabbed all the headlines this week, and we’ve got an in-depth interview with Circa’s owner, Derek Stevens.<\/p>\n

Stevens shares details about how Circa Resort & Casino came to be, including a jigsaw puzzle of deals that made the improbable project possible.<\/p>\n

Despite the fascinating interview with Derek Stevens, we still manage to deliver yet another disappointing installment of the podcast, complete with puerile humor and reckless speculation.<\/p>\n

We’ve got the latest about the sale of Bonnie Springs Ranch<\/a>, drama surrounding the closure of “A Mob Story” at Plaza, the next chapter in the feud between Resorts World and Wynn Resorts<\/a>, Raiders owner Mark Davis’ new home (with its nine bathrooms) and more.<\/p>\n

\"Bonnie
Bonnie Springs Ranch was fun while it lasted, and it lasted a long, long time. The place was originally built in 1843.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Naturally, we round up the latest casino and restaurant news, including items about Downtown Grand’s new hotel tower, the 60-foot sculpture coming to the pool at Palms, plus a cavalcade of updates about shows both new (“The Naked Magicians”) and making moves (“Magical Dream”).<\/p>\n

Our “Listicle of the Week” reveals which slot machines have the lowest casino holds, giving you the illusion of control over your gambling destiny.<\/p>\n

Listen and learn. Or probably just that first thing. You know how you are.<\/p>\n
