thePodcast: How the legalized gambling explosion could spoil Super Sunday

For the week of Feb. 9, 2025

Super Bowl LIX Sunday. The biggest day of the year for North American sport, TV and gambling.

Canadian investigative reporter and academic Declan Hill says the explosion of government-blessed betting on both sides of the U.S./Canada border threatens the integrity of sport and the health of sports fans.

Hill is associate professor at the University of New Haven Sports Integrity Center, Crime Waves podcast host and author of two books on match-fixing. He is Bob Mackin’s guest on this week’s edition of thePodcast.

Plus hear from Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre. What does he promise to beef-up security at Canada’s un-policed ports?
