We're getting through the middle of the week and inching ever so slowly to Super Bowl LIII. Professional handicapper Bryan Leonard from WagerTalk.com joined us today for the Sports Wagering Talk segment to give his insight into what we've seen so far with Super Bowl 53 between the Patriots and the Rams and to talk about how he organizes his thoughts to go out and attack the prop betting market. The guys also talked about second half college basketball betting.

Then they talked golf with this week's Farmers Insurance Open and Desert Dubai Classic to share some picks and predictions. Finally, the guys looked at Purdue vs. Ohio State tonight in college basketball.

The winter blues have set in, so we thought we'd change things up a little bit on this January 22 edition of BangTheBook Radio by talking about sports betting markets that remind us of better weather. Host Adam Burke chatted with Brian Blessing of Sportsbook Radio and Vegas Hockey Hotline about his early thoughts for Super Bowl LIII, but then the guys talked about the Road to the Kentucky Derby and some early horse racing odds. They wrapped up at Torrey Pines with a look at the Farmers Insurance Open PGA Tour event and added some golf picks.

We fired up a new week on BangTheBook Radio with a throwback to how this whole thing started. For the full broadcast, it was just host Adam Burke and professional handicapper Kyle Hunter.

The guys started off with a look at the NFL playoffs and the lines for the conference championship games. They talked about Rams vs. Saints and Patriots vs. Chiefs to see if there are any good angles early in the week.

Then it was all about college basketball and our Handicapping the Hardwood segment. Adam and Kyle talked about some regression candidates and also looked at a fade or follow segment. They also talked about the college basketball futures market about two months out from March Madness. They each had a couple of teams to share that have some futures value at this point in time and talked about the strategy you want to employ when considering futures.

Colts vs. Chiefs, Cowboys vs. Rams, Chargers vs. Patriots, and Eagles vs. Saints should make for a great weekend.

Tony George from Doc's Sports joined us to chat about basketball. The guys did start by recapping the college football season and then went into the NBA and college hoops. In the NBA, the guys looked at tonight's Thunder vs. Spurs matchup and talked about what we've seen to this point in the NBA season that stands out to Tony or any teams he is looking to back or fade. In the college basketball world, every team except one has a loss in Tony's two best conferences - the Big 12 and the Missouri Valley. Who can we trust in those leagues? Tony answered that question and more.
