John Phillips and David Mason of Aristotle Discuss Political Prediction Markets

This episode of Two Think Minimum focuses on prediction markets and their regulation. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission recently tried to shut down Predictit, a leading prediction market, but the Fifth Circuit granted a temporary injunction to allow the site to continue operating. We interview two executives of Aristotle, the firm that incubated and helps run Predictit: John Phillips, CEO of Aristotle, and David Mason, Aristotle’s general counsel.
