Swish Edition

Bethwick Mediawww.swishedition.com
NEW: A video version of the show is now available on YouTube! This long-running comedy and pop culture podcast launched in October 2010. The "Swish Edition" is hosted by Scott Wallis (from his 'secret underground studio' in Sin City) and new-hire Kristin (coming to you from just outside our nation's capital). The weekly shit show features news and snarky commentary on the entertainment industry, travel, Las Vegas, marketing trends, crazy celebrities, and much more. Scott, along with the recently-retired Dale Blades, originated the show in Washington, D.C., before moving to Las Vegas in 2018. Episodes have been heard in over 144 countries, have featured hundreds of guests from all walks of life, and, once upon a time, the show reached the top 2% of Apple Podcasts' comedy list. New episodes drop every Wednesday.
