More Than Slots: The Desert Degens Podcast

Welcome to the very first episode of the Desert Degens Podcast.

If you’ve been watching us spin every day, you know we don’t always get time to talk about everything going on in Vegas. So we decided to fix that.

We’ve been living in Las Vegas for a long time — Ryan’s been here 21 years — and there’s a lot happening in this city beyond the slot floor.

This podcast is where we talk about:

New casinos and renovations

Vegas shows, restaurants, and hotels we actually go to

Revenue trends and what they really mean

Slot machine trends we’re noticing

Major Vegas events

Honest conversations about gambling, business, and life in this city

This isn’t a news broadcast.

It’s two Vegas locals giving real perspective.

For Episode 1, we covered some big developments happening in Las Vegas right now — from casino updates to gaming revenue numbers to major headlines impacting the city.

If you love Vegas beyond just the spinning reels, this is for you.
