I'm Maria Kannakova and I'm Nate Silver and our new podcast Risky Business is a show about making better decisions.

We're both journalists who moonlight as poker players and that's the lens we're going to use to approach this entire show.

We're going to be discussing everything from high-stakes poker to personal questions.

Like whether I should call a plumber or fix my shower myself.

And of course we'll be talking about the election too.

Listen on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

You can watch the original episode we'll be discussing in every other episode of

HBO's Curbier Enthusiasm including the new and final season on Max. You can also

watch the video version of the History of Curbier

Enthusiasm podcast on Max and YouTube as well. Links available in the

episode description. Season 2, episode 6, the Acupuncturist.

I'm Susie Aspen. Who am I? You say Jeff, who are you? I'm Susie Eesman. You're Jeff Garland. Thank you. You need to clear that up. Yeah, I agree. And I have to say that I don't think I ever saw this episode and it was the strangest episode we've ever done.

I'll know further where I can make that clarification,

but it's certainly in the running, at least top two,

the worst top three.

And by the way, watching it again,

I didn't quite understand it.

There was so many things that I didn't understand.

Yes.

And usually I understand everything.

So why don't we go through it?
