In this episode, host Fernando Noodt sits down with Elisa Marcante and Leo Biazzi to dissect Brazil's sudden decision to tighten sports betting advertising rules shortly after regulation came into force.

Key Topics

• Brazil’s Rapid Regulatory Shift: Why the government tightened betting advertising rules so soon after initial regulation.
• Shared Responsibility: How extending advertising liability to broadcasters, platforms, and affiliates changes the game.
