Join host Jonathan Jossel and legendary former Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman in a special edition of the “On The Corner of Main Street” podcast recorded live at Oscar’s Steakhouse during Oscar’s famous Dinner Series! In this wide-ranging (and always entertaining) conversation, Oscar dives into unforgettable stories from his days as a high-profile attorney, his time as mayor, and the colorful characters he’s encountered along the way.
From Philadelphia roots and Las Vegas lore to brushes with the FBI, mafia defense cases, and even a cameo in Casino, Oscar pulls no punches. You’ll hear about:
His early career defending reputed mobster and the surprising twists that led him there Tales of wiretaps, courtrooms, and the federal agents who always seemed to have him in their sights Memorable run-ins with the public figures-including judges, law enforcement, and Vegas icons The (sometimes outrageous) behind-the-scenes moments that only Oscar can tell Why he loves (and occasionally “hates”) certain aspects of the city he helped shape. Plus, you’ll get a taste of the camaraderie (and hilarious banter) that makes Oscar’s Dinner Series such a hit. If you’ve never been to one of these events at the Plaza, this episode will make you want to book the next date-just be sure not to talk while Oscar’s talking… or you might just “get whacked”!
