We get details straight from Usher about his upcoming Super Bowl performance at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas this February.  We were there as the City of Las Vegas honored him with a key to the city. Also, Dayna goes to see Magic Mike Live at Sahara! We travel downtown to Vegas Unstripped, a food and drink festival that highlights off the strip restaurants and chefs. Plus, Mayor Carolyn Goodman is still pushing California to widen the highway after you cross the Nevada state line. We talk to her about her frustrations and why it's important. Las Vegas isn't just a playground for adults. We reveal some of the city's hidden gems, suitable for the entire family. From the captivating Museum of Illusions to the Battlebots experience, there's something for everyone. In our Vegas Tips segment, if you need a place to get some work done while you visit Las Vegas, we have an idea... and buy a Monorail ticket and save money on attractions and shows.

Car-Chum doesn't do Special Editions; we leave to Peugeot and Ford in 1992.  If we did though, this episode would be one such example.  And so much more than just a tilt-only glass sunroof to make it special.  Join Tony and Mike at the Beaulieu Autojumble 2023 as they rummage for treasure with Matt Richardson from Furious Driving, Steph from Lancaster Insurance (and I Drive a Classic, of course), Danny Hopkins of Practical Classics fame.  The Chums also get a guided tour of the Autojumble from Beaulieu's Ben Coleman.  Oh - and they also ride the Monorail.  Well, it'd be rude not to.

We've got just the ticket! Lexi & Ben have a one-track mind as they dork out about trains and try not to go completely off-track with talk of tattoos, taxes, Disenchanted, and ASMR! Don't get derailed, hop aboard this episode and let's go!

Ever wondered what would happen if the people who make Tomorrow's World went on strike? Well, wonder no more. Turns out that all they do is cobble together a Frankenstein's monster of a programme from old segments of previous episodes. The interesting thing, as your esteemed auditors quickly discover, is that whoever is normally in charge of quality control is very much on strike too. Listen on as Michael Rodd fondles a gnome, laughs at some trains and breaks America, Kieran Prendiville gets stuck up a mast, and Judith Hann does her back in after crashing a chopper.

The Meigs Elevated Railway—one of the world’s first monorail systems—looked like something out of a Jules Verne novel. But it was very real. In this week’s episode, hear how nineteenth-century Bostonians missed their chance to build a steam punk utopia.

The monorail system was the brainchild of Joe Meigs, a Civil War veteran and tinkerer who had political and financial backing from Massachusetts governor Benjamin Butler. Meigs envisioned a system that would soar above the streetcar traffic clogging Boston’s streets. Beginning in 1884, thousands of people boarded his distinctive cylindrical train cars for 20-mph rides around a test track in East Cambridge, MA. The system was a technical success, and eventually Meigs obtained a charter to build miles of monorail track around Boston. But a fateful attack one winter night in 1887 dashed his hopes—and proved that the best technology isn’t always the one that wins widespread adoption.

Featured guest: Charles Sullivan of the Cambridge Historical Commission. Charlie also provided key historical perspective in Soonish 1.09, A Tale of Two Bridges.

Featured voice: Charles Gustine, producer, Iconography

To browse an extensive gallery of images of the Meigs monorail, check out our show notes.

A full episode transcript is available in the Extras section of the Soonish website.
