Two local, Las Vegas friends discuss life, current events, and everything else that pops into their heads. It's the Pick Me Up that everyone needs! Pop Culture and tribulations! This show is funny with a flare, never boring and always informative. Come join our family!
The Mercedes In The Morning podcast is a show that I have been obsessed with for years. As someone who dislikes the radio, this podcast provides a refreshing alternative with hosts Mercedes and JC who are truly outstanding. The addition of Stephanie as a producer has only added to the greatness of the show. Despite my dislike for the quick clips that sometimes pop up before I can listen to the full episode, I still highly recommend this show because it never fails to put a smile on my face and get me through the work day.
The best aspect of The Mercedes In The Morning podcast is undoubtedly the hosts themselves. Mercedes and JC have an amazing dynamic and their chemistry shines through in every episode. They know how to connect with their audience and make them feel like they are part of the conversation. Their relatability is what sets them apart from other podcasts and keeps listeners coming back for more. Additionally, Stephanie's contribution as a producer brings another level of entertainment to the show.
On the other hand, one of the worst aspects of this podcast is the display of bonus episodes. It can be confusing and frustrating when these episodes pop up unexpectedly or when it feels like we're missing out on content because they are not showcased properly. It would be beneficial if there was a better way to organize and display these bonus episodes or even consider creating a separate podcast show specifically for those clips.
In conclusion, The Mercedes In The Morning podcast is a must-listen for anyone looking for a fun and entertaining way to start their day. Despite some minor flaws such as unexpected quick clips or lack of proper organization for bonus episodes, the overall quality of the show surpasses these issues. Mercedes, JC, Stephanie, and Nudia bring joy, laughter, and relatability to every episode, making it an essential part of any listener's routine. Even if you don't live in Vegas anymore like myself, this podcast never fails to brighten your day. Keep up the great work!

In 2021, UNLV's long time mascot "Hey Reb!" was removed due to concerns that the pioneer-themed character evoked Confederate imagery and racism. The discussion is back because an online petition wants the legendary UNLV mascot to return. We talk to UNLV alumna and native Hawaiian, Mathilda Miller who agrees on a new mascot and also Jersey who was the Hey Reb mascot for 6 years. Photo Credit: Ethan Miller / Staff

This holiday season, more families than ever are turning to Three Square Food Bank for support. Rising costs and tough times mean many of our neighbors are struggling to put food on the table. But Southern Nevada has always been a community that shows up when it matters most. Thanks to the incredible generosity of Nevada Gold Mines operated by Barrick and Boyd Gaming, every dollar donated now through the end of the year will go twice as far. That means every $1 can double to provide up to 6 meals for families right here in our community. If you'd like to get involved or learn more, visit threesquare.org. Together, we can make this season brighter and create hunger-free holidays across Southern Nevada. ❤️
