Thought he did pretty well, for something so confronting. Important for a lot of people to hear that stuff I reckon.

Reckon his point about all the advertising from the online agencies "normalising" it for kids, is probably something I hadn't thought of before, and a fair shout.

Completely agreed with that before I noodled off
Ladbrokes, 365, Crown, Sportsbet, Ubet, Tom Watershithouse, Odds boost, in game multi bet, weekly special. There are that many adds that seep into your sub conscience. I must see between 10-50 a day depending on how much sport I'm watching and I now have accounts with nearly all agencies. clearly the message is always there, it's made very easy to do and you are provided incentives to do it.
Never stopped to consider the market saturation but he was spot on
I will give the bloke credit. He didn't try and talk up and sensationalise any big wins and make it an exciting interview but painted a very grim picture of the social cancer that gambling can become

I also watched the Anthony Koutoufides and Gary Buckenara episodes from this year during the week on YouTube aswell as a couple of older episodes, Todd Viney and Chris Lewis.

Was watching on youtube and replayed the 'Milne Bounce' half a dozen times. I'm a masochist.

I watched the Dal Santo episode on Wednesday night. He speaks well and seems like a honest, respectful fella that tells it like it is. I've liked listening to him in the media.
