Summary

Nearly 90 homes in Lake Las Vegas are sinking — raising big questions about whether the development was a mistake and if builders are prioritizing quantity over quality. Plus, international tourism is down and the city has a plan to win visitors back. We're also asking whether handing the Huntridge Theater to a nonprofit is the key to finally reopening it. Downtown neighbor Patricia Haddad Bennett and executive producer Layla Muhammad join host Jesse Merrick. Don’t miss our bonus segment on why Primm’s last resort closing is hitting home for locals.
