Talking With John Katsilometes (Kats!) – April 13, 2020 - a podcast by Talk About Las Vegas with Ira

This week, Ira Sternberg spoke with John Katsilometes, the man-about-town whose column (KATS) runs daily in the Las Vegas Review-Journal. In this 30-minute episode of Talk About Las Vegas, Kats talks about how entertainers are relaunching themselves in new platforms since the closing of resorts and casinos; how he covers the town with shuttered venues (and offering his unique Vegas KatsWalk, covering the near-empty Las Vegas Strip); developing rapport with entertainers through skills formed in the smaller communities he grew up in; the challenges for Las Vegas entertainers who are primarily “gig” employees; and the future of entertainment once the showrooms and lounges reopen.
