Show Notes

Sports betting surges in the U.S., with over $150 billion wagered this year, despite legal restrictions in many states. Ohios revenue from legal betting reached $1 billion, but concerns about problem gambling are rising. Betting apps like DraftKings and FanDuel offer prop bets, turning phones into constant betting hubs. Lawmakers and the governor are pushing back, with Ohios governor calling legalization his biggest mistake. Betting companies claim to have tools for responsible play, but economists warn of risks, especially for young men. If youre feeling the pull, help is available at Ohios helpline or the national hotline.
