It’s been a WTF week of news in Vegas starting off with the major fire that overtook an unfinished 5-story apartment building. This has been the biggest blaze among a string of apartment fires since 2019. Also, Adele tickets are being resold for $15,000 and alien sighting claims are running rampant around town despite NASA saying otherwise. Co-host Dayvid Figler is joined by lead producer Sonja Cho Swanson and co-host Vogue Robinson to explain (some of) the madness.
