NOTE: Though one of us is a NV resident, we are now hearing that there are two pronunciations of Tonopah, and the one we originally used is not preferred. It has been corrected! Delete the episode and re-download if you hear the wrong Tonopah and feel the urge to email us. A few hours outside Las Vegas, there’s a truly unique — and kind of alarming — motel. If you’ve driven through the vast, empty desert for too long, and need a place to shack up for a night or two, we know a spot… that is, if you’re cool with clowns. But that’s not all the Clown Motel has in store.
