Disappointed Tone
I feel conflicted writing a negative review because I really enjoy the podcast. However, the comments I just heard Oscar make were so beyond inappropriate. To make light of murder is not funny. To threaten a member of the crowd is not a good joke. Real families of real people more than likely died at the hands of the men he is so proud to represent and reference from a podium. It just really rubs me the wrong way. To be so drunken on his own ego (or just drunk) indicates such a complete lack of perspective. I will no longer enjoy listening to the episodes where it is Oscar’s story hour. It is a shame because he is admittedly a gifted storyteller. But, after hearing the same stories rambled over and over and never hearing any empathy or nuance of any kind while discussing such serious matters is, well, disappointing. I look forward to future episodes that focus on modern Vegas, the industry in general, and operational insights at the property. I feel Oscar would be better represented by his many statues, they are slightly less offensive.

Always interesting, fresh, and full of new things to learn about Las Vegas, and The Plaza.

I love listening to On the Corner of Mainstreet. They always have interesting guests who are very knowledgeable about Las Vegas and the casino industry. I enjoy the replays of Oscar Goodmans talks at Oscars and hope to be able to attend one someday. It is great that Jonathan will answer anything...Read full review »
