In a valley of transplants, we explore the mystique and mild superiority complex of being born and raised in Las Vegas. The episode examines common misconceptions, the unique hustle culture, surviving 24 hour temptation, and the side of Las Vegas only long-time locals know. Host Sonja Cho Swanson talks with artist Justin Favela and Nevada Independent opinion editor Andrew Kiraly.
