MAKING A LIVING BETTING SPORTS AND… POLITICS IN THE SHADOW OF A TRAGEDY

Our newest regular contributor is political analyst, Michael Shure.  We’ll spend 10 minutes talking with Michael regularly about the unfolding political season and how the fast moving events of the world shape the respective presidential campaigns

Then, the documentary film, The Best Of It and the filmmaker, SCOTT PEARSON EBERLY… Scott talks about the characters that inhabit his film.  They are four people who make their sole living from betting on sports.

One of them, “Dink”, calls in during the show.

It’s a subculture that’s fascinating, exhilarating and maybe even a bit unsettling.

You don’t need to be a gambler for this episode or even to enjoy this film.  

Here’s the link to THE BEST OF IT movie:
