You might not expect a podcast sponsored by and recorded at a downtown Las Vegas casino to eagerly discuss problem gambling. But few Vegas-related topics are off-limits on Plaza CEO Jonathan Jossel’s show, and that’s the point of the podcast.

“Even the subject today is something that most people probably would shy away from but we’re going to talk about it because it’s a part of the industry,” Jossel said.

Plaza’s “On the Corner of Main Street” podcast offers a unique glimpse into the Las Vegas hospitality and gaming scene through conversations and storytelling from notable names in the industry. Hosted by Jossel and Vice President of Operations Gary Vickery, the two most often invite a guest for a roughly 45-minute recording.
