Episode 23: How the Metaverse Could Impact Sports Betting, Fan Behavior, and Security

Episode 28: The Situation Room Meets the Sportsbook

I am trying something a little bit new with the podcast this week, so please share your feedback. Rather than an in depth 15 or 20 minute long podcast, I am trying a shorter 2-3 minute clip that is a succinct summary. You can then return to the written piece for more detail if you like what you hear. This week, the podcast will be sent out to all subscribers, but after this week, it will only be available to paid subscribers. Please let me know whether you prefer this shorter lead in or the longer, more fulsome, episodes. This is a public episode.
