Jackpot!

from With Good Reason · host Virginia Humanities

It’s football season, baby! And that means big upsets, impossible comebacks, nail biting finishes - plus sports betting ads… lots and lots of sports betting ads. Brendan Dwyer studies how this new era of sports betting is changing how we watch games. Later in the show: Virginia legalized casino gaming in 2019 and now there are three operational casinos with two more on the way. Barbara Blake says casinos can boost the local economy but they aren’t a golden ticket. Plus: Larry Epplein is the program advisor for Virginia’s first casino management class.
