In the first of a two-part episode, we dive into the future of sports betting, online gambling and prediction markets like Kalshi with the help of a special guest. Betting expert Chad Millman and professional gambler Simon Hunter are joined by Chris Gerlacher of Prediction News as they update the audience on everything that has transpired in the last 12 months.

Since joining us last summer, Gerlacher provides updates on the many legal and regulatory challenges Kalshi and other prediction markets have faced across the country. We also touch on prediction market scandals and "insider trading" accusations from within the federal government. Kalshi is a platform that has enjoyed tremendous growth since accepting contracts on sports last January, but will this growth continue? Will the CFTC continue to serve as the regulatory body for the prediction market industry? And what can we expect over the next few years? #Volume

After a thrilling Game 1 of the NBA Finals, the best teams in world square off again on Friday night. But only one will lift the Larry O'Brien Trophy! Today we discuss all the best bets for New York Knicks versus San Antonio Spurs in this episode hosted by betting expert Chad Millman and professional gambler Simon Hunter. They welcome back NBA expert Jason Timpf of the Hoops Tonight podcast to break down the NBA Finals from a betting perspective, giving us all the gambling picks and predictions we'll need to profit from this exhilarating series.

The San Antonio Spurs sent a clear message across the basketball world with an electrifying performance in the Western Conference Finals, defeating the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder in seven games. But superstar Victor Wembanyama was a little underwhelming in the first game of the Finals on Wednesday night. Do the favored Spurs have what it takes to defeat the New York Knicks, the winners of 12 consecutive games? In the Eastern Conference Finals, Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns punched the New York Knicks' tickets to the NBA Finals with a commanding sweep of the overwhelmed Cleveland Cavaliers. They followed that up with a gutsy come-from-behind double-digit victory in Game 1. Chad and Simon ask Jason Timpf the biggest questions on the minds of NBA bettors as these teams battle on. #Volume
