it's, it's obviously addict. like like in my it's the, it's just the why we scroll our phones. if you live within 50 miles of the casino, you're much more likely to become addicted with online gambling. any going onto phones that 50 miles becomes for all of us. 5 inches. you'll people who literally will gamble on their phones or on their computers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. people just press the button all day long. and we've turn this into a nation of visual, and on this episode of bulk wise, we look at the rapid expansion of both of them with us and the tactics companies use this to real gamblers it and then keep them there. they gave me a call, a 100 percent, no stress bit the 100 and they could give you. like if you lose this, the no stress i give you right or 100. wait, i'll give you the money back. they give you a credit, so you can still take that a new $100.00 and ben it again. right? right. even so what they're giving you isn't money. what they're never knew where i

so i think that probably contributed a feeling lonely. she turned online gambling apps after her 2 young kids went to sleep, downloaded draft kings, were you looking to gamble and sports? no more on the online casino, i felt real. there were actual live dealers and other people playing that were on the chat. you can see them, but they were on the chat. so it minutes more of a social experience. it wasn't long before she started wagering serious money, sundays, i would deposit a $12000.00. so if you do the math that ends up quickly, she wrapped up $80000.00 in credit card debt to get a loan from her retirement account and had to get a 2nd mortgage on her house. she says she lost more than $400000.00 gambling across several different apps. and just didn't feel as real as putting actual cash on the table or actual cash into the machine. it just felt very, a felt like

a game over the next 6 years. the american people are on course to lose more than one trillion dollars of personal wealth to commercialize gambling. and yet the momentum to legalize on like gambling, speeding across the country, unabated state by state. well, the day is finally here. sports bedding is launching in north carolina the via our dataset. we came to north carolina and march just days after the state legalized online sports gambling in just in time. one of america's most gambled on sporting events, march 9 is not, is, can date it is and start watching the whole month. the country will turn into more than 130 college basketball games. over the next 3 weeks. americans are expected to legally campbell, nearly $3000000000.00 throughout the tournament. and chief

boomer is in his last year at the university of north carolina studying business. and today is the 1st day of march madness. how many. but since you have today a lot, i used all the problem is today, so i don't know maybe 1012 parlors. and apparently multiple bits are rolled into one single wager with a larger ppo. you have to when every one of them. so there's a higher risk, but a higher reward amongst your friends, how many of of them would know immediately what a a parlay is. uh, probably like 90 plus percent of them 90 plus percent of your friends would know what a parlay is. yeah. like this is for different teens and this way. then i got like a lot on you and see obviously the legal age to bet on support is generally 21 at some fantasy sports app. so out gamblers is youngest 18. the online gaming industry has had young men and it's guns sites since the very beginning. so we've gone from collecting sports cards of your favorite athletes and plenty posted on the wall.

and now it's all about poly bags in play wagering. have you seen a lot of advertising for gambling apps? oh yeah, there's a lot of advertising like every time i like any time you're watching a game on tv. anytime i open like instagram or twitter like there's an ad for vandal drafting, every time they take the payment online, sports books spent $2000000000.00 on advertising and 2023 alone. you know, we know that youth are exposed to very high rates, again, with advertising and whether or not as intended or targeted. they're being exposed . i like caesar's, you, i but and doing drugs easy have a little bit better lines m g m in that 365 for the sign of bonuses. how important is it that you can do this through a phone as opposed to going to a sports, but it definitely makes me a lot more inclined if i do it from like my phone or laptop, then like physically going somewhere to place to that. how many times you've actually gone in place to sports, but some are maybe never as long as sports

gambling becomes more mainstream for spirit, growing addiction crisis, cost again like helpline skyrocketed. we spoke with dozens of people who were in recovery for gambling addiction. most of them didn't want to speak about it on camera. my whole life is on my phone. i had instagram and facebook when i was 13. i got snapshot right around the same time. we spoke to one young man who's 23 years old fix. he asked us to conceal was identity for fear of losing his job. if it weren't for your job, would you feel a shame about this? i would feel indescribable shame. what makes it so shameful that i would dedicate this much time and mental space to something that i wasn't even getting high or physically enjoying the group. the tight knit family of 4 in which supports play the key part and is operating. it was the cornerstone of my relationship and my brothers relationship with our dad and brought as an indescribable amount of

meaning to, to my life. he didn't know anything about sports bidding until he went to college. not long after arriving on campus. he places 1st ever sports, but did you ever have like a new or up a lot of money. it's at some point. i want one, a draft, kings pool for $6000.00 off of like the $20.00 entry. it must escalate it pretty quickly there. huh. you can only watch one game at a time, but you can bet on 30 or it was world soccer. in general. it's on 24 hours a day. it would not be written, you know, a regular for me to be in that, on my phone from, you know, call it 8 am to noon or even later for games on at once. bedding, all of them bedding, you know, bulgarian romanian. he told us he lost more than $50000.00 gambling. you know, every deadline and stuff for myself, you know, started getting when i turned 21. i mean that was a joke. stop betting when i graduate college. stop that. and when i start working,

stop getting. when i turn 22, i bluth the reverie deadline. how does it affect your relationships? i would be visiting my girlfriend and i would just go in with my phone, sit on the toilet, rattle off 10. that's all of a sudden my girlfriend doesn't know. i have $2000.00 in in got inviting risk. those moments. i would think to myself, in the corner, my rent like, and my associate past, you have someone 18 even 22, their ability to make a decisions and the impulsivity still isn't fully developed. and then you put something like a, you know, gambling app on a, on the phone and there's no speed bumps or guard rails. there's nothing to slow them down. it's a perfect storm. part of the addictive nature mobile sports betting as a gamblers can wager on any sport anywhere in the world anytime they want. we used

to bet in america on american sports. now if you want to be inactive better, there are thousands of games available each day. online gambling companies collect data on users to track who they've been on when they met in a host of other personal details, the tracking of your intimate data, even your health data, your menstrual cycle data, your financial data. so many things that happen on your phone are visible to these companies. hey guys. yes, yeah, that is here. finally, a sports book from your favorite sports brand algorithms and even artificial intelligence are used to make the apps very appealing, very sticky, very addicting. this is a laboratory for experimenting with people and their behavior. sports gambling operators break didn't nearly $11000000000.00 in 2023. but they still see room to grow with the i gaming space. gaming, as an industry euphemism for online casino,

gambling crew let for slot machines. under recent earnings call, the ceo draft kings referred to it as an unlocked gym for the company. a lot of people are sort of sleeping on it a little bit and maybe are just focused on how big the sport side can be and not realizing the idea of these die to make the business even larger. sports gaming gets people in the door right. bit and why they make money from it, where they make the most money is getting to do to transition over to the online casino portion of it. so fan dual draft kings that they're based. these are the online casino operators. if this was a new people lost $1700000000.00 in 2023 to casinos, the middle of wagering on mobile devices more than 3 times the amount lost on sports betting its want of only 7 states with this type of gambling is legal to beat us prefer game, it's called swing. go like a single single game resembling bingo. think about it as

a slot. machines been for few seconds. one second for $12000.00. i think there were days where i started gambling at 10 pm and had lost like $2000.00 by 11 and spent from 11 pm to 4 a. i'm trying to get that money back in failing. and then finally, going to bed up for um, getting up and doing it again. the next day. she was chasing or losses. for compulsive gamblers, it can be a vicious cycle. if you're a citizen that shows the likelihood of chasing your license, you know, which is the number one indicator of somebody who's in addictive gamble like your chase your losses. you don't, you are as a human operator, like, you shouldn't be immediate check that hey, we need to stop this. part of this is the person who shouldn't be marked into draft kings. took the opposite approach and assigned to her a v i. p. host to keep her an action, they would provide incentives for me and to make sure that i'm having a good experience online. there would be different things like tickets to

stealers games. say about a woman a single mom and she's young and all of the site and she's got a v i. p person and reaching out to her and she's got someone giving her football tickets. she's thinking i finally made it like there's a hook to that. and there's a, there's a big price to that as well. at the game, her son noticed that something was it right. and i told him, oh, it's from mark. and he said, i didn't see any of your co workers here. and i heard a lot of people talking about gambling and draft kings. he's like, did you get this? could you use a draft kings at mom like this is coming from a at the time it was 12. yeah. and what, so what do you tell them? i was completely honest with them and i said yes and mom is going to stop using that up. but she couldn't stop. at this point, she was chasing more than just our losses. i just couldn't stop placing the bat for that anticipation for that rushed which came up short one month on our mortgage.

she turned her draft kings via the host for help. there was a time where i emailed him and said, hey, this draft kings ever give out loans cuz i'm having a hard time paying my mortgage this month. he said no. and then he wrote back and said, do you have a problem gambling? and i said no, just asking, we took her e mails to a professor in new york university. natasha show is the author of addiction by design, and an expert and how the gambling industry. we'll send their clients to look at what's he asked. the draft kings ever give small loans. this is really concerning because she's voicing in her email that she short on her mortgage. also saying probably this means i need to quit gambling. and it does seem like the 1st response is taking that seriously. asking if she's playing within her means budget, but then when she sends back this one liner, yes, i'm playing within my means. okay, perfect. you know, let's,

let's give you 250 click the claim to get you back in action. and there's something about that phrase back in action, right? i mean that's, that's a term that gamblers use to describe that kind of rush, right? there's an amazing exchange here, but i, as i assume that it's par for the course. and there's many more out there like this . oh, are you gambling beyond your means? you know, like it will suddenly just email communications, but they know, damn well, you know, you don't need it. you don't need any knowledge of addiction science to know like this person is an out of control gamma. and even when a conscience, you know, knows this has, this has been probably wrong. what they're doing. we emailed draft kings about could be the story and they didn't respond. we called her via the house directly. hey, my name's josh frustrating. i have

a stroke up online to an address or english, and i'm working on an episode about sports gambling recovery and could be the fisher story. i was wondering if i could ask you some questions because he doesn't want to talk we could be to was deep in debt. she was throwing a lifelong, she started with. and when big the game, it's such a high winning street like it wasn't like, oh, i lost in between. it was continuous winning for 48 hours. she wasn't nearly half a $1000000.00 enough to clear debts, but at this point it was more about doping. me than dollars. i know nero biologically, it's extremely hard to stop because your brain needs that level of doping. mean that's already so high. and you start having withdrawal symptoms. if you don't keep playing or she could bring herself to withdraw the money that the end when i lost it all, there was also the sense of relief which i can't explain. the majority of prophets come from those players. the people who play to keep playing,

who never are really going to take their money out of the game. in psychiatry, gambling addiction is classified in the same categories, cocaine and heroin. you can't really design heroin. it comes with its properties sort of already built in. but you can build whole companies with massive hundreds of people on design teams for every little element and aspect of these apps, right? but the pacing of the apps, what they look like, the little graphics that explode on them on the algorithms behind. it seems to me that the same algorithm that identified you as someone to give the ip service to the same kind of algorithm that could of lead you to say to help, i think so. but why do you think it in wide and big farm on tell consumers that opiates could be so dangerous, they made it sound like these are the new pain pills. and you know,

there's no risk of getting addicted or having these long term effects. and here we are in an open right up at the american how long is it going to take before we're in a gambling academic gambling has become so normalized in america. the nfl chose las vegas to states the 2024 super bowl. who was the most watched game in history in the most gambled on with americans wagering more than $23000000000.00 for decades. professional teams avoid it biggest because they didn't want to damage the integrity of the support times of change. you know, we are the exclusive official life of the nfl teams at the store. this is radio ro, through the world, media comes to cover the biggest game and it's always full of traditional broadcasters. but this year,

2 of the sets getting the biggest present the biggest stars are both sports gambling. we have spindle and draft kings for on camera interviews, but they decline both companies definitely don't. celebrities, to help them market their platforms the boys and girls, children of all ages wrapped in koski was one of the greatest football players of all time. destiny to excuse the star from the master into a marketing campaign. all right, another question from fault lines. why was it important for you to endorse vandal? particularly at a time where there's a lot of concerned about the growing up a demick of a problem. gambling with young man, the kind of young men who look up to you as well as fans or the number one leading sportsbook in america. and i'm a championship guy. i love when he championship. so i love being with the number one team outside of the field as well. and on top of a fam do it does a great job with responsible gambling. they're always representing of, you know,

bet responsibly. don't go out there, but your paycheck, you know, on a weekly basis, go out there and just make the game more intriguing with a say that i just use fan jewels. responsible gaming tools like time and spending limits to manage my plan. that's the system. the industry says they take responsible gambling very serious. is that the framework to approach this by that is absolutely a p r campaign. it is a total deflection away from any responsibility on the part of the designers who are spending huge budgets, manipulating every little color and sound and tweak on these things. you'll get a best in class experience with everything you want out of a sports book. and also a total deflection of responsibility away from the marketing practices that are just constantly trying to pull you back, pull you back, pull you back for someone to recovery. responsible. gambling is not an option, nor is living daily life without constant reminders that online gambling is just

a click away. is it easy to avoid seeing casino ads these days? they're everywhere. i mean, any sports game, any, just driving home from this speech today. so now, oh, there were about 3 that i saw right on the highway. you mentioned in your talk today that one in 5 problem gamblers attempt suicide. that's the financial desperation that eventually people see it as the only way out. i thought about it. i'm worth $2000000.00 if i'm not here and that could take care of all my debt. it could take care of my kids. and the thing that prevents me from going any further than i thought is my children being there for them as mothers. very important a how long is your payoff plan? how many years we'd be sending it off, 3 to 5. that sounds like

a presence and that's $3.00 to $5.00 with their behavior. yeah, with good behavior. exactly. unable to stop gambling online could be to registered with appropriate run by the state to prevent her from accessing gambling websites. but it turns out that wasn't enough. she found a loophole. a category of online games. they're not considered campbell by the state. i called them headed and gamlee apps like solitaire cash or bubble cash or any of those that literally look like game last 7 or like in the last 2 months on solitaire cash and bubbling cash. in fact, at the end of solitaire cash, i was offered a v i p host, and 13 days, 2 hours, 24 minutes and 41 seconds. so, you still felt the temptation all the time. the computer wasn't the only one who found a work around to keep gambling and all. let me open page, got

a draft kings. the 23 year old we interviewed, installed an app that prevents it from accessing family websites out our website. but even that wasn't enough. what was the last time you placed about 9 days ago, i had a one day relapse after 2 months clean. i figured out that i could actually access these sites through my work phone. and so i brought my work phone to my coed soccer league that i, you know, was one of the alice that i've wanted to use for recovery. i was all sitting there, all my work, phone rattling off, you know, $500.00 to a $1000.00 worth of. that's definitely not in control. my heart breaks for people. you know, whether you're an adult or a young person like it is physically change your brain chemistry, like that, brain chemistry is an easy to share. we change back, you know, i, so i used to be susceptible this really for the rest of your life. i really fell in love with sports. it's just such a important part of, of society in

a culture and then dining just kind of kind of like a cancer just kind of latched on and spread. i honestly, i just don't see how it gets better until he gets a whole lot worse. the judge and then millions. stephens times does a delicacy value just as highly if i called tells in the mafia. price per kilogram is equivalent to several different shrugs with exclusive access phone lines, joins the environmental. prosecute is turning the tide on the criminals, exposing the listed world of wildlife trafficking and it's devastating impact on the planets ocean. the shocks and hunters on al jazeera, the canyon government has ordered thousands of people across the country to move
