Hate Symbols, Poker Cheaters, and One Year of City Cast Las Vegas
Monday was the last day for members of the Senate and Assembly to introduce bills for the 2023 session and some of those proposals are already seeing pushback. Co-hosts Dayvid Figler and Vogue Robinson are joined by lead producer Sonja Cho Swanson to break down both sides of a proposal to ban hate symbols and another to out cheaters in online poker. Plus, the team shares their highlights from the first year of City Cast Las Vegas — along with two surprise special guests!
