| 0:00.0 | I did see a funny ex post that was, it wasn't Dan and Carteret that said it, but he's the |
| 0:07.4 | one that sent it to me. |
| 0:09.5 | It's a guy named Chris Vanani, who said, within a week, we've had a major jewel heist and a |
| 0:14.4 | mafia involved poker ring and sports gambling corruption. |
| 0:17.7 | We're living in the 1920s, which is further to my point about how stuff like this has been going on |
| 0:25.8 | ever since humans could bet on things and money was involved. |
| 0:30.2 | I mean, like, Shoah and Todi was involved in a major gambling issue. |
| 0:35.5 | Yes. And somehow, you know, he was able to escape. Yeah, because his translator |
| 0:41.2 | either really was stealing from him or he took a bullet for him. Now, until there's other evidence, |
| 0:48.8 | I have to believe what we've been told. But then again, you know, a couple years later, we find out that |
| 0:55.5 | the NBA is pulling Terry Rozier out of the rest of the games of the season, you know, with a fake |

| 1:30.2 | and it turned out that it was. |
| 1:31.6 | And just, you know, sportsbooks have been around for years and years and years. |
| 1:34.9 | The apps have been around for, what, about five or six years now? |
| 1:37.3 | Yeah. |
| 1:37.8 | The apps are one thing, but the sports books are completely different. |
| 1:41.5 | You know, some of these gambling bets were made at the sports books. |
| 1:46.5 | Right. |
| 1:46.9 | Not on, |
| 1:47.5 | not on the apps. Well, that, well, that too, yes. I mean, there's also, you know, a level of money that you could bet on the app as opposed to in person with cash and yada, yada, yada, different states. But you're in Vegas, you're making a $10,000 bet on Terry Rozier, you know, not getting, you know, three assists. |
