Episode 10: “Anybody Can Win, but Everybody’s Gonna Lose”

Episode 10: “Anybody Can Win, but Everybody’s Gonna Lose”

Perhaps you have someone in your life who’s prone to sports gambling. Michael Lewis has someone. So he comes up with a scheme to “inoculate” his 17-year-old son against the lure of placing bets online. All the while, Lewis tries to craft the perfect “master class” for would-be gamblers to understand the dangers of what they might be getting themselves into.

Here's his reading list:

The Logic of Sports Betting by Matt Davidow and Ed Miller

Stephen Pinker’s Rationality: What It Is, Why It Seems Scarce, Why It Matters

Weapons of Math Destruction by Cathy O’Neil
