‘Your City Could Be Better’: A St. Paul Cell Phone Ban Teens Might Actually Like — Presented By City Cast Las Vegas

21 minOct 11, 2026

Another Las Vegas school year has begun — how are cell phones being handled? In Minnesota, one high school is demonstrating that a strict no-phone school day can work, and they’ve got the (mostly) positive feedback to show for it. City Cast Twin Cities host Sean McPherson joins David to talk about how St. Paul Central High School is succeeding at enforcing a phone-free school environment, the surprising ways that some students approach it, and how these kinds of bans can even affect adults like Sean.

A selfie on a Strip bridge could land you in jail for six months — and that's just the start of what host Jesse Merrick and local filmmaker Jason Harris are untangling this week.

The Mayoral Races to Watch, AG Ford Recruits Influencers, and the Best Festivals This Weekend

35 minOct 8, 2026

Henderson and North Las Vegas both have mayoral runoffs on the ballot, so we break down the races and explain how the mayors of our metro's smaller cities interact with and influence the broader Las Vegas area. Aaron Ford is leaning into an influencer strategy in the final stretch of the governor's race, launching "Creators for Aaron" to reach voters through left-leaning content creators. We dig into whether it's a smart move or a sign of desperation given the massive spending gap between Ford and Lombardo. We also look ahead to the weekend and highlight some events and happenings around town that caught our eye. Host Jesse Merrick dives into it all with NPR Mountain West News Bureau regional reporter Yvette Fernandez and Nevada Current reporter Michael "MJ" Lyle.

39 minOct 7, 2026

A tourist is suing The Nerd bar in Fremont after getting injured when she was thrown off their giant mechanical p*nis , a wild headline that got us thinking about the state of Fremont and its nightlife scene. With Vesta and Yu-Or-Mi Sushi among the latest local spots at a Station Casinos property to close, we dig into the challenges local restaurants face when trying to make it work inside a casino. Plus, in another round of Vegas Obsessions, we hit on a Halloween pop-up bar in the Arts District, the return of Justin's Latinos Who Lunch podcast, and the sale of Las Vegas' famed underground mansion. Host Jesse Merrick breaks it all down with local artists Vogue Robinson and Justin Favela. Learn more about the sponsors of this October 7th episode.
