Show notes
Jonathan D. Cohen, author of Losing Big: America's Reckless Bet on Sports Gambling, joins to explain why our national rush into online sports betting might be a bigger mess than we realize. They talk sketchy app rollouts, bad state deals, and how betting lines went from shady corners to college campus. Plus, why Malaysian women's doubles badminton at 3 a.m. says more about America than we'd like to admit.
