Save big on Vegas with Las Vegas Advisor — get 10% off a membership with code MTM (new members, affiliate): lasvegasadvisor.com The long empty CVS space at Sky Las Vegas just sold out of foreclosure for $13.5 million with the new owner promising budget eats on the Strip once the lease finally runs out. World Series of Poker player Jared Griener also says two men were waiting inside his Airbnb after he cashed out his winnings, apparently knowing his door code. We dig into a remarkable 70 minute video driving the Strip in the summer of 2001, with the Desert Inn about to come down and the festival grounds still a dirt lot, and make the case that version of Vegas might have been better. Plus $3.99 sliders at Casino Royale, the Mad Hatter tea party returning to Peacock Alley August 26th through 30th, and a $20 dinner and a show from old Planet Hollywood. We also react to Wanderlog's Vegas pizza rankings, where Evel Pie at number three has us questioning reality. Finally, the LVCVA impact report shows visitor spending off its 2024 peak, and a slide revealing CEO Steve Hill makes $813,000, which is only fifth highest in the country. Let us know in the comments if you miss the 2001 Strip.

The easy decision is to maintain the status quo, which is what is largely expected to be the case with today's vote. However, the opportunity cost as outlined is likely far more significant than most have begun to consider. This is independent of longer-term considerations about having the infrastructure in place for our state to continue to lead economically in the AI age, and longer-term considerations about the international AI race. Specifically, China not only has adequate data center supply to support its current activities, but they've also built excess data center facilities so that the country won't be slowed as growth continues to ramp up. The combination of China's data center aggressiveness and consistent resistance within the U.S., runs the risk of tilting the balance of power to China in the years to come. There's much more to this story.

What do uneven benefits changes from mega corporations tell us about how these workplaces value women? In the past few months, both Deloitte and Zoom have publicly announced significant changes to particular portions of their employee benefits packages. These adjustments amount to telling certain employees (mostly women) that they matter less than others.  By slashing paid family and medical leave and paid time off for “support roles,” Deloitte is effectively hamstringing the predominantly female portion of their staff - those workers in positions like finance, admin, and HR (and the changes also impact IT and marketing). Comparatively, they confirmed that no deductions will befall employees in client-facing positions. In this episode, I break down what companies are saying when they curb vital childcare and parental benefits for the portion of their workforce that shoulders the bulk of caregiving responsibilities. Learn more about this “gender-scrubbing” form of sexism that perpetuates workplace inequity, including: How companies use language to erase women from the narrative; The dangerous precedent that a change like this sets; Why not all two-tier benefit structures are made equal; Four steps you can take to make your voice heard.

The local authority has also commenced steps to acquire lands for the Kilrush to Kilkee stretch.

Bruce & Gaydos explain what Buc-ee's popularity could do to Goodyear's economy. 

SCHEDULE THE JOHN BATCHELOCR SHOW, 6-24-2026MEXICO CITYThe Imprisonment of Jimmy Lai and the Future of Hong Kong. Guest: Mark Clifford and Gordon Chang. Jimmy Lai has spent over 2,000 days in prison, becoming a symbol of resistance against the Chinese Communist Party. His fate mirrors that of Hong Kong, which is transforming into a national security state where surveillance and espionage extend to international cities like London. 1US Navy Control and the Opening of the Strait of Hormuz. Guest: Rebecca Grant and Gordon Chang. Despite Iranian claims of closure, the US Navy maintains tactical control over the Strait of Hormuz, ensuring sea lanes remain open for international shipping. Advanced mine-clearing technology and persistent patrols have neutralized threats, though economic signals like the Jones Act waiver remain points of discussion. 2Canadian Public Opinion on the Chinese Threat and US Trade. Guest: Charles Burton and Gordon Chang. A majority of Canadians perceive China as a threat following revelations of election interference and malign influence operations. Meanwhile, concerns grow regarding the reliability of the United States as a partner under the Trumpadministration and the potential abrogation of the USMCA trade agreement. 3Strengthening Defense Ties Between the Philippines and Canada. Guest: Charles Burton and Gordon Chang.Canada is deepening security cooperation with the Philippines to counter Chinese expansionism in the South China Sea. This partnership includes logistical agreements and military training, even as Canada faces challenges protecting its own Arctic sovereignty against increasing Russian and Chinese strategic reach in the North. 4Ukrainian Drone Attacks Cripple Russian Oil Infrastructure. Guest: Michael Bernstam. Cheap Ukrainian drones have successfully targeted Russian refineries and fuel transport, causing significant shortages of gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuel. This technological warfare has forced Russia to ban exports and implement rationing, as traditional air defense systems struggle to counter swarms of small, maneuverable drones. 5Declining Russian Oil Production and the Shadow Fleet. Guest: Michael Bernstam. Russian oil production is falling due to aging fields and a lack of investment, failing to meet OPEC quotas. While Russia utilizes a "shadow fleet" to bypass sanctions, it must offer steep discounts to India and China as Brent crude prices decline and fiscal pressures mount. 6European Heatwave, Commodity Prices, and UK Political Shifts. Guest: Simon Constable. A "Godzilla El Niño" has triggered record-breaking heatwaves across Europe, impacting energy demand and agriculture. Amid falling Brent crude prices, attention shifts to UK politics, where the potential rise of Andy Burnham within the Labour Party signals a move toward higher taxes and increased government spending. 7The Infrastructure and Economic Impact of Data Centers. Guest: Simon Constable. Data centers have become essential infrastructure for AI development, consuming vast amounts of water and electricity. While they provide significant tax revenue for localities, particularly in states like Virginia and Texas, their construction often faces local opposition due to their immense resource requirements and costs. 8Colombia's Presidential Shift Toward Security and Law and Order. Guest: Evan Ellis. Abelardo de la Espriellaappears to have won the Colombian presidency, promising a crackdown on insecurity and organized crime modeled after El Salvador's policies. His victory signals a likely return to strong security cooperation with the United States and a departure from the policies of Gustavo Petro. 9Keiko Fujimori and the Return of the Fujimori Dynasty. Guest: Evan Ellis. Keiko Fujimori has likely secured the Peruvian presidency, narrowly defeating her socialist opponent through overseas votes. Her administration faces a deeply divided nation, widespread illegal mining, and cocaine production, but may benefit from a new bicameral Congress intended to provide greater political stability than previous years. 10Political Instability in Bolivia and Regional Alliances. Guest: Evan Ellis. President Rodrigo Paz has survived a 50-day crisis in Bolivia after declaring a state of emergency to clear blockades led by Evo Morales. While regional allies have supported Paz, Brazil's absence from this coalition highlights President Lula's role as a principal counterweight to US influence. 11Mexico's Economic Growth and USMCA Renegotiation Tensions. Guest: Evan Ellis. The Mexican economy saw its sharpest expansion in five years, yet the upcoming USMCA renegotiation creates significant uncertainty.

On Thursday’s Closer Look with Rose Scott, Supervising Producer Tiffany Griffith introduces you to Elliot Hefty. After enduring several transphobic attacks, he left the U.S. in 2025 to seek asylum in The Netherlands.

Tourists are spending up large as a visa waiver trial yields results. Chinese and Pacific travellers have injected around $215 million into the economy over the last six months after visa changes eased access to New Zealand. These tourists can skip applying for a visitor visa if they already hold an Australian one, as part of a 12-month trial launched in November. Rotorua Mayor Tania Tapsell told Mike Hosking it's bringing huge benefits and should be made permanent. She says Chinese tourists spend around $6,000 each on average when they visit.

Many people think of nonprofits as service organizations, but this new report focuses on economic impact. What should Michigan business leaders understand about the nonprofit sector's role in the state's economy? Nonprofits often work alongside government and the private sector. How do strong public-private partnerships help communities grow while also supporting economic development and workforce needs? The report highlights concerns about government shifting responsibilities to nonprofits without fully funding them. What challenges does that create, and why should the business community care? Volunteerism, charitable giving, and civic engagement are major themes in your policy work. How do those activities contribute to stronger local economies and healthier business environments? Looking ahead, what policy changes or investments would have the greatest impact on helping Michigan's nonprofit sector continue serving communities while also strengthening the state's economic competitiveness? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/ The Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) and the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) asked Public Sector Consultants (PSC) to study and highlight the economic impact of nonprofits in Michigan. The new report finds that nonprofits play a key role in the state's well-being by providing important services like health care, education, human services, and the arts.

While the podcast team is taking a Radical Sabbatical, Kim is interviewing authors of the books that have had a big impact on her in the past two years.  In this episode, Kim speaks with Heather McGhee, the author of The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together, a New York Times bestseller.  Heather takes Kim on a journey through US history, demonstrating how efforts to exclude some of us from public goods harm all of us, starting with public swimming pools in the United States. As Heather describes in The Sum of Us, “By World War II, the country's two thousand pools were glittering symbols of a new commitment by local officials to the quality of life of their residents, allowing hundreds of thousands of people to socialize together for free…A Pennsylvania county recreation director said, “Let's build bigger, better, and finer pools. That's real democracy. Take away the sham and hypocrisy of clothes, don a swimsuit, and we're all the same.” These swimming pools were remarkable public resources. The Fairground Park Pool had a sandy beach, elaborate diving boards, and a capacity of 10,000 people. However, when cities across the country were forced to integrate these pools, they chose to fill them in with dirt instead. Nobody got to swim–except people wealthy enough to join private clubs. Starting in the late 1960s, the same illogic was applied to more consequential areas of life than swimming pools. As the public began to perceive that government programs like welfare, healthcare, education, and infrastructure funding would benefit Black and Brown Americans, political support for these public goods collapsed.  For example, when Texas rejected Obamacare, its rural hospitals began going bankrupt, resulting in medical deserts and economic devastation in rural Texas towns.    Today, we have a choice: the solidarity dividend that results from public goods that benefit everyone; or the devastation for everyone that results from the kind of zero-sum thinking that would cause a community to destroy public goods rather than make them available to everyone.   Guest Background: Heather McGhee designs and promotes solutions to inequality in America. The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together spent 10 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and was long-listed for the National Book Award and Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction, among numerous other awards. In the summer of 2022, The Sum of Us was adapted into a Spotify podcast by Higher Ground, the production company of Barack and Michelle Obama. The Sum of Us was adapted into a young adult readers' version by Random House Children's in February 2023. The adaptation for middle and high-school students received starred reviews from School Library Journal and Booklist, and Kirkus named it a Best Young Adult Book of the Year.

DESCRIPTION A major immigration raid in South Carolina sparks debate over illegal labor, corporate accountability, and political timing just days before a critical Republican primary. Tara examines the broader economic impact of illegal hiring practices, the role of business leadership, and why some believe this enforcement action could signal a larger crackdown on employers. SUMMARY A large-scale federal immigration enforcement operation in South Carolina resulted in dozens of arrests, including workers and members of company management. The discussion centers on whether targeting employers and HR personnel could represent a meaningful shift in immigration enforcement strategy. Tara explores claims that illegal labor practices have depressed wages, reduced opportunities for working-class Americans, and created incentives for businesses to circumvent labor and tax laws. The episode also examines the political implications of the raid occurring shortly before South Carolina's Republican primary and questions whether additional prosecutions of corporate leadership could follow. KEY STORIES COVERED 1. Major South Carolina ICE Raid Federal authorities conducted a significant immigration enforcement operation. Dozens of undocumented workers were reportedly detained. Management personnel were also reportedly taken into custody. The raid received national media attention. 2. Employer Accountability Debate Discussion focused on whether immigration enforcement should target business leadership in addition to workers. Questions were raised about potential future investigations involving upper management. The conversation emphasized the role employers play in hiring decisions. 3. Economic Impact of Illegal Labor Claims were made that illegal labor practices suppress wages in certain industries. The discussion highlighted concerns regarding construction, manufacturing, agriculture, and processing plants. Speakers argued that labor market distortions have harmed upward mobility for lower-skilled American workers. 4. Political Fallout Before Primary Day The timing of the enforcement operation became a major topic of discussion. The raid occurred just days before South Carolina's Republican primary election. Debate centered on whether the operation could influence voter perceptions of immigration enforcement. 5. The Future of Immigration Enforcement Discussion explored whether future actions will focus more heavily on employers. The broader conversation examined federal-state cooperation in immigration enforcement. Questions remain regarding whether additional investigations will emerge from the operation. NOTABLE QUOTE "Until the shiny shoes go to prison, it's not going to make a difference." This quote captures the central argument that immigration enforcement should focus not only on illegal workers but also on business leaders who knowingly benefit from unlawful hiring practices.

DESCRIPTION A major immigration raid in South Carolina makes national headlines, allegations against the Southern Poverty Law Center ignite controversy, and questions about illegal labor, political influence, and government accountability take center stage. Tara connects the dots between immigration enforcement, political power, and the future of South Carolina politics. SUMMARY Today's show focuses on three major controversies shaping the political landscape. First, Tara examines allegations involving the Southern Poverty Law Center and broader concerns about political activism, donor transparency, and ideological extremism. The discussion explores claims that political organizations profit from fear-driven narratives while influencing public discourse. The conversation then shifts to immigration enforcement after a large-scale workplace raid in Abbeville, South Carolina generated national attention. The operation resulted in numerous arrests and criminal charges, prompting renewed debate over illegal labor, employer accountability, and whether state leaders have done enough to enforce immigration laws. Finally, Tara revisits concerns about political extremism, media influence, and the role of establishment politicians in shaping policy outcomes. Throughout the show, the focus remains on government accountability, economic consequences, and the impact of political decisions on working-class Americans.

Immigration and South Carolina Politics State leadership came under scrutiny regarding immigration enforcement policies. Critics questioned why large-scale workplace raids have historically been rare in South Carolina. The issue is becoming increasingly important in state-level elections. Economic Impact of Illegal Labor The discussion highlighted concerns about wage suppression and labor market competition. Particular attention was given to manufacturing, agriculture, and processing industries. Debate continues over the long-term impact on working-class American workers. Political Extremism and Public Trust The episode explored concerns about growing political radicalization.
