Join Shane and Andrew this week as they welcome a very special guest onto the show, Brett Abarbanel, the Executive Director at the International Gaming Institute, and a globally recognized expert in gambling and behavioral science. With her in-depth understanding of regulatory practices and responsible gaming, Brett enlightens listeners on what the term 'gambling' truly means—spoiler alert, Shane contributes a very academic answer to the question of what gambling is. Together, they navigate the intricate landscape of regulation in sports betting, diving into topics like the reasons and implications behind betting limits, the various stakeholders involved from regulatory bodies to individual consumers, and the delicate act of creating a fair playing field in a world where the stakes are high.

Armed with an impressive amount of neutrality and a wealth of experience, Brett walks listeners through the tightrope act of appeasing various stakeholders in the landscape of sports betting. From the perspectives of regulators and lawmakers to the often overlooked vantage point of the consumer, Brett’s insights shed light on the complexities and potential solutions in this rapidly evolving industry.

In a conversation that's as enlightening as it is engaging, they also delve into practical tools for sports bettors to engage in responsible gaming, and they scrutinize the controversial practice of placing limits on winning players while continuing to accept wagers from losing customers.

This was an incredibly fascinating discussion filled with insider perspectives and actionable advice—and one you won't want to miss!
