😎 Good morning!
Some exciting news today: We’re expanding our membership program and giving it a fresh name: City Cast Las Vegas members are now City Cast Las Vegas Neighbors. Because good neighbors make good cities, and City Cast Las Vegas Neighbors are essential to this newsletter and this city 🏡
Each member will continue to have access to ad-free podcast listening and a first look at weekly Las Vegas events before everyone else. We’re also expanding members-only events where you can connect with other Neighbors and interact with the City Cast Las Vegas team.
Joining the growing community of City Cast Las Vegas Neighbors connects you with all the things that make Las Vegas great. And as a welcome gift, we’ll send you a custom ceramic mug if you sign up during our spring membership campaign, which kicks off today!

So about that photo … The answer is C.
The sign is part of the old Western Exterminator Company, which is now closed in Las Vegas, but continues to operate in Reno and a few other cities. The “little man” mascot is usually threatening a rodent, but that doesn’t appear to be the case here.
The sign is on Wyoming Avenue, next to the new Barter Beer + Mall, where City Cast Las Vegas recently hosted our first-ever trivia night for members of our Neighbor program 😀
