MGM Resorts is entering week three of their recovery from the recent cyberattack, but things are still not completely back to normal. When can we expect things to return and what is MGM doing to rebuild their entire IT infrastructure after the attack?

We also take a deep look at the official Raiders Hotel M Resort. They lean heavily into the sports theme, but as a locals casino does this place have the right vibe and how does it stack up to "Strip" casinos. Other topics discussed include: the tragedy at Bellagio, Kelly Clarkson's amazing Vegas moment, light vs. dark casinos, Usher's Superbowl halftime show and how U2 ticket prices are falling ahead of their debut at the Vegas Sphere later this week.
