CAPTION  JANUARY 1960CONTENTS OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW,  9-11-2026Global Currents: From Mission History to Interstellar VisitorsThis broadcast overview explores a diverse range of current events and cultural history, beginning with a look at California's coastal missions and the potential impact of a super El Niño. The narrative transitions into legal and political updates, specifically addressing mail-in ballot validation and the preservation of a historic casino sign in Las Vegas. Economic and geopolitical concerns are highlighted through rising fuel prices and military tensions at Middle Easternshipping choke points. Scientific discussions follow, covering the geological formation of Italy, the growth of commercial space travel, and the study of interstellar comets. Finally, the broadcast highlights a literary biography of George Sand, celebrating her as a groundbreaking French novelist and intellectual.California History Disasters And Ocean SwellsJeff Bliss speaks from San Luis Obispo, describing the 1772 Spanish mission built to project military and religious control in early California. Reflecting on the 25th anniversary of 9/11, he recalls being in San Luis Obispo preparing to fly to San Francisco when the attacks occurred, noting how generational memory of the event has shifted over time. Additionally, he discusses the severe damage along the Southern California coastline caused by Hurricane Marie's high heat, humidity, and massive swells that eroded beaches and threatened Amtrak rail lines. Finally, he highlights efforts to restore the iconic Circus Circus clown sign in Las Vegas. (1)Legal Challenges To Postal Voting RulesRichard Epstein analyzes the appellate court decision halting the Trump administration's proposed Postal Service mail-in voting rules. Epstein argues that while the government claims postal regulatory authority to combat potential fraud, applying restrictive envelope and documentation requirements acts as a harmful monopoly power over state election procedures. He emphasizes that the Postal Service lacks the necessary equipment, programs, or execution capability to process millions of ballots neutrally before the election, risking widespread voter disqualification. Epstein also criticizes President Trump's campaign promise to distribute $5,000 checks to adult citizens if Republicans win Congress, calling it an unfeasible and populist bribe. (2)Inflation Pressures And Local Pennsylvania ElectionsJim McTague reports on economic and political developments in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Rising gas prices—reaching $4.26 at Costco and up to $4.60 elsewhere—alongside diesel exceeding $6 per gallon, are squeezing family budgets and slowing retail activity across the region. Dining out costs have also increased substantially. On the political front, McTague discusses a visit from a campaign canvasser for Republican state representative candidate Tom Jones, who is challenging incumbent Democrat Malone. Notably, the canvasser actively avoided discussing Donald Trump, highlighting how local candidates in this traditionally Republican county are downplaying national party affiliations. (3)Wines And Cuisine Of Monferrato ItalyLorenzo Fiori explores the Monferrato region in Piedmont, Italy, highlighting its picturesque landscape of rolling hills, vineyards, and historic villages. He details the region's rich viticultural offerings, including Barbera red wines, Dolcetto, white wines such as Gavi, Cortese, and Arneis, as well as Asti Spumante and Vermouth. Fiori also describes regional culinary specialties, such as agnolotti—stuffed meat pasta served with butter, sage, or roast sauce—alongside beef tartare, truffles, and amaretti biscuits paired with Moscato d'Asti. He recommends visiting during September and October to experience the vibrant autumn colors, ideal weather, and seasonal food pairings. (4)Small Business Trends And AI ConcernsGene Marks discusses current economic conditions, noting strong corporate profits alongside owner concerns over rising regulations and labor costs. Warning of inevitable market contractions, he advises business owners to build cash reserves and credit lines. Marks also addresses workplace artificial intelligence trends, observing that younger workers often fear AI job displacement due to economic uncertainty, driving higher enrollment in trade and technical schools. Furthermore, he notes widespread distrust among business owners toward big tech executives regarding data privacy and security, even as businesses selectively adopt AI tools to enhance productivity. (5)Literary Legacy Of Novelist George SandFiona Sampson, author of Becoming George, Part Two: Sampson discusses French author George Sand (Aurore Dupin), examining her distinct appearance, unconventional attire, and public identity in 19th-century Paris. Sand broke social taboos through her independent lifestyle, extramarital affairs, and progressive writings on women, ecology, and working-class lives. Sampson outlines Sand's complex personal relationships, including her tense dynamic with her daughter Solange, her supportive role for her son Maurice, and her nine-year relationship with composer Frédéric Chopin, whose artistic output she enabled. Additionally, Sampson highlights Sand's deep literary friendship and correspondence with Gustave Flaubert and her enduring influence on modern literature. (6) Nuclear Proliferation And Orbital Space WarfareHenry Sokolski examines non-proliferation concerns surrounding Saudi Arabia's pursuit of domestic nuclear power and uranium enrichment capabilities. He questions proposed inspection arrangements and "black box" proposals, highlighting technical limits in detecting clandestine material diversion and warning of security risks in active war zones. Turning to space security, Sokolski describes a war game simulating a 2039 crisis between the United States and China over space-based interceptor networks like "Golden Dome." He warns that orbital systems designed for missile defense could also be deployed offensively to conduct space launch blockades or disable satellites, urging public debate over primary orbital military missions. (7)Commercial Space Boom And Planetary ExplorationBob Zimmerman, author of the 2017 policy paper Capitalism in Space, outlines a commercial space boom, predicting 14 operational rockets launching by early 2027—half of them American—which will significantly lower orbital launch costs and expand private enterprise. He details corporate developments involving Firefly, Relativity, Vast's commercial space station plans, and Europe's Exploration Company. Zimmerman also highlights India's efforts to privatize its space sector under Prime Minister Modi. Moving to planetary exploration, he notes the Curiosity rover's milestone climb up Mount Sharp on Mars, past discoveries of unique interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, and Chandra X-ray Observatoryfindings revealing low-energy X-ray objects across distant galaxies.

Get your MTM Vegas merch! https://mtmvegas.shop Station Casinos closed its 50th birthday summer with a mic drop: $1,000 for every year of service, for every employee, a roughly $70 million thank you that even the managers did not see coming. Meanwhile the Circus Circus clown sign, turns 50 this month with its electrical system completely fried, and we make the case for restoration over yet another screen.

Also this week, the creepiest Circus Circus commercial ever made, part of a 1998 in-room video full of murderous clown energy, fake news segments, and a $17.95 steak special. Shawn spent Labor Day weekend at Resorts World and comes back with a Save the Golden Monkey plea, a Crockfords tease for Friday's show, and a first visit to Vegas' newest casino, Club Fortune North, where the $100 loss rebate worked exactly as promised on his wife's birthday. Plus Hard Rock Tampa stuffed a thousand slot machines into a convention hall, Nevada somehow ranks 45th among the best states to live, a Venezuelan lunch just north of the Strat, Chris Holmes' secret dining spots above the Grand Canal Shoppes, and the guitar tower now dominating the center Strip.

Get your MTM Vegas merch! https://mtmvegas.shop Last show we could not confirm the Circus Circus steak deal. This week we have the sign, the video, and the menu: it is real, it runs weekday afternoons, and it might be the best steak value in Vegas. Also, the Wizard of Oz turns one at the Sphere with a mountain of ticket revenue and upgrades on the way, including a new flight of winged monkeys over the audience. Kelly Clarkson goes viral and reignites our favorite argument: who becomes the next great long-term Vegas residency and why hasn't she done better? Plus Boomer's Sportsbook lands at Four Queens with a deposit match worth grabbing, Zoox robotaxis are officially serving the airport (pack light), Red Rock is closing Lotus of Siam and Naxos Taverna, the Raiders got their $75 million in public money for the bridge, and a developer wants to carve a whole new bypass behind the Strip.

We both landed on the same answer, and one underrated resort deserves more love than it got. Also this week, Boondock's epic night, from Caesars' 60th anniversary party to a mystery house party at Cosmo, and the chandelier pieces Caesars handed out are already on eBay. Golden Gate is adding a high limit room, Fontainebleau is redoing theirs with input from Vegas Matt, and Palms turned a barbecue joint into one of the best non-smoking casino spaces we have seen. Plus the Golden Monkey Tiki rumor that hurts our hearts, a legendary Montreal deli lands in Henderson, a $19.50 sandwich at Durango, and the unadvertised $40 steak deal at Circus Circus that sounds too good to be true.

Get a $230 gift card after your first payment of $500 with Melio (affiliate) - https://milestomemories.com/go/melio/ A Review-Journal article about Mad Apple closing dropped a number that explains a lot: MGM production shows have gone from about 65 percent capacity a decade ago to roughly 30 percent today. Bally's also told the wider world this week that it is having trouble paying its loans, which makes their whole Chicago standoff look a little different in hindsight. The Treasure Island giveaway ended early and it did not end well, with people cut from the line on the last night after being told they would be taken care of.

Bingo is making a surprising comeback on the Las Vegas Strip, and it's not just for retirees anymore. We talk with Plaza Hotel CEO Jonathan Jossel about how bingo never really left town and why it's suddenly clicking with new generations. From packed super bingo tournaments downtown to Circus Circus' big bet on the game, Jossel explains how payouts, hospitality, and community keep players coming back. Plus, why bingo may be the perfect antidote to loud clubs, endless scrolling, and overpriced nights out.

Today, Dave sits down with Eric Wareheim and Gabe Ulla, authors of the new book 'Steak House: The People, the Places, the Recipes'. Amongst friends, the discussion ranges from the magic of steakhouses to the ideal steakhouse order. The myriad types of potato sides are listed, the right way to order a martini is declared, and the idea of the steak dinner celebration as a descendant of the old-school hunt and sacrifice is posed. Dave also cooks a wet-aged and a dry-aged (or, at least, a little less wet-aged) steak for the cowriting duo.

Random Vegas 1992 is when Circus Circus opened their bungee jump experience with a 201 foot tower. Jumpers paid $100 to drop 171 feet almost into a swimming pool. The attraction closed in 2005 TwitPic of the week I don't know how they did it but I love it. This week's winner by @SCVegas is a photo of the W tower at Mandalay Bay while it was still known as Delano, the Luxor Pyramid, Excalibur Castle and NYNY, all in one photo. It's a stunner showcasing just how diverse the options are south strip. It's interesting that the people who originally experienced these themed properties when they were embracing the theme concept are the same people wishing Vegas properties would reembrace theming. Unfortunately Murrenzation will all but guarantee this will never happen as it costs money to be unique. News Electric Mushroom Slotapalooza 2025

Hooters Casino Hotel was meant to be a game-changer—bringing its busty brand of mediocrity to the Las Vegas Strip. Instead, it became one of the biggest disasters in Vegas history. A casino so bad, it made Circus Circus look classy. So... what went wrong? For my third annual Hooter Bowl Spectacular, I had to go big. So I spent 19 hours trapped inside the Hooters Casino Hotel (now OYO), enduring its busted elevators, depressing ambiance, and suspiciously sticky carpets—all for the sake of history. Along the way, my guest Alexander Poncio and I uncover the shocking history of this cursed Las Vegas casino—including its mob ties, multiple bankruptcy scandals, and an abandoned attempt in the 1980s to become Vegas' first LGBTQ-friendly resort. "Fine" Dining is now on video! Head on over to my YouTube to WATCH this episode!
