About this episode
In this week's Dark Chat, Lauren and Andrew spiral into the horrifically predatory world of online Sports Gambling! From history, to lobbying, to app design, to the psychology of addiction itself - they break it all down! Lauren and Andrew may not know much about sports in general, but they can tear apart the negative incentive structures of capitalism all day long!
So kick back in your favorite recliner, grab a nice cold brewski, and watch Lauren and Andrew equip themselves with research to take on the Stealers!*
You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll never want to touch your phone again. Welcome to the Dark Chat and have a Happy Doomsday!
*"Stealers" as in the corporate overlords and local governments stealing people's income through psychological exploitation, not to be confused with the Pittsburgh based football franchise of the same name
