A Fast-Paced Hour: Sports, Policy, and a Surprise Call From Carson City
Today’s edition of The Middle Ground brought listeners a dynamic mix of sports insight, breaking political news, and an unexpected live update from the state capital.
In the first half of the show, longtime oddsmaker Nick Bogdanovich of Boomer’s Sportsbook joined us to break down this week’s NFL slate. Nick walked us through every major matchup, the spreads, the totals, and the key storylines driving betting action nationwide. As always, he delivered unmatched perspective, blending decades of industry expertise with his trademark clarity and honesty.
The second half shifted gears to one of the biggest Nevada stories of the week: the special legislative session officially underway in Carson City. We broke down what Governor Lombardo placed on the agenda, why this session matters, and how the decisions made over the next several days could impact public safety, healthcare, job creation, and long-standing community issues like Windsor Park.
Mid-discussion, we were joined by a surprise caller — State Senator John Steinbeck, phoning in live from the Capitol. Senator Steinbeck offered real-time insights into the atmosphere inside the building as lawmakers got to work. His call gave listeners a rare same day look behind the scenes, adding depth and urgency to the discussion.
From sports to state politics, today’s show captured the energy of two worlds moving fast — and The Middle Ground connected them for our listeners with clarity, balance, and context.
