In this post-Christmas edition of Spellbreakers, Matt Trump reflects on returning to Las Vegas for the first time since 2020 and asks a bigger question: is Las Vegas still what it once was? Framed by the Twelve Days of Christmas, the episode weaves together personal memories, cultural shifts, and the changing identity of the city itself. Matt revisits his experience of Las Vegas during the turbulent weeks after the 2020 election, contrasts it with today’s economic and social climate, and explores whether the city’s magic, affordability, and spirit have survived the last five years. The conversation touches on tradition, reflection, America’s crossroads, and how places like Las Vegas mirror deeper national changes, all delivered in a relaxed, contemplative, end-of-year tone.
