Show Notes

Gambling is everywhere in Pennsylvania, including casinos, apps, the lottery, skill games, and fantasy sports. It’s fun for some but also incredibly addictive. And while PA has a way for players to ban themselves from gambling, critics say it’s easy to get around and the penalties don’t incentivize big companies to prevent problem behavior. Axios Philadelphia’s Isaac Avilucea joins City Cast Philly host Trenae Nuri to explain what’s at stake and how our government actually benefits when Pennsylvanians play.
