Join us every weekday morning for the messy, delightful, complicated conversations that Las Vegans are having: You’ll hear us ask hard questions about where we’ll get our water when Lake Mead runs out, and how we’ll keep housing affordable. We’ll argue over our favorite Chinatown bars, and share insider tips on the best tacos in town. City Cast Las Vegas will show you how loving a city means celebrating it and also holding it accountable, while having some fun along the way—because Las Vegans know how to have a good time.

We also dive into Clark County's eviction process and explain why a new lawsuit is calling for changes, including getting rid of appointed hearing masters who wield significant power without being held accountable by voters. Host Jesse Merrick wraps it all up with the latest Vegas Fixations alongside Spotlight Poetry founder Elle Hope and Creative Producer Jacob Solis.
