  • Too much PM talk

    Not bad. A bit like Circles Off used to be, but without the ego of the hosts or their knowitallism or their delusions . Way too much prediction market talk

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

TRTP Live From BET BASH | Ep 176
Q: What can we learn from LeBron Next Team Date to Sign Markets?

Who Does AI Help in Sports Betting (PeanutBettor Guest Host) | Ep 158
Q: If you construct a team of only college players with one week to prepare versus the NFL, what would the spread look like?
They reason through the ceiling of rookie college players versus seasoned NFL athletes, noting that limited prep time would severely constrain college players, leading to a wider spread in the underdog favor and a large advantage for the NFL team with full-season prep.
Who Does AI Help in Sports Betting (PeanutBettor Guest Host) | Ep 158
Q: What are the top three worst takes in The Risk Takers podcast history?
The hosts discuss several controversial takes, including criticisms of the Cardi B/Kalish controversy and other hot takes, while also noting some that aged poorly; they aim to roast a provocative stance rather than settle on a single point.

Q: What was the defining moment that convinced you to leave law and pursue betting full-time?
A combination of burnout, a gradual realization that betting could be scaled and sustained beyond a hobby, and seeing early, sizable edges (like the first-down NFL bet) showed that there was a viable path to lifestyle and income outside big-law.
