Episode Description from the Publisher

The LVCVA says Las Vegas is feeling the effects of the K-shaped economy, so we dig into whether catering to wealthy visitors is a sustainable long-term strategy for a city that built its reputation on being an escape for everyone. 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.
