On episode 45 of the Atlantic City and Casino Biz Podcast, we welcome Dr. David G. Schwartz back to the show to discuss Hard Rock International’s purchase of Trump Taj Mahal and the outlook for Atlantic City’s casinos and other development.
Dr. Dave directs the Center for Gaming Research at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and has written books about Atlantic City, Las Vegas, and gambling history. His book Boardwalk Playground: The Making, Unmaking, & Remaking of Atlantic City, offers a history of the people, places, attractions, and events that have shaped the city over time. His latest book is Tales from the Pit: Casino Table Games Managers in Their Own Words.
You can find him on Twitter at @DrDave702 and @UNLVGaming. His website is dgschwartz.com, and his articles can be found at Vegas Seven.
ICYMI: Our “Lucky Sunday” meetup is June 11th at 4 p.m. on The Deck at Golden Nugget. We hope to see you there!
