It takes another nine months before anyone can legally bet on sports. Brian Murphy from WRAL News and Tim Donnelly from 99.9 The Fan look at where the tax money goes, who stands to gain and what this means for the future of sports and sports fans in North Carolina.

Sports Betting E3 | The Senate votes YES, but the House says NO
The votes on legal sports betting in NC did not happen like most things in the legislature. There aren’t usually surprises by the time a bill reaches a vote in the Senate or the House. Brian Murphy from WRAL News and Tim Donnelly from 99.9 The Fan take us back to June 2022 when nothing was certain about legal sports gambling in North Carolina.

Sports Betting E2 | A high stakes alliance in support of legal sports gambling
In May 2018, a US Supreme Court ruling opened the floodgates for all states to move forward with legal sports betting. But being “allowed” to move forward and convincing the NC legislature to move forward are two very different things. In episode two, Brian Murphy from WRAL News and Tim Donnelly from 99.9 The Fan talk to the major players working for and against legal sports betting in North Carolina.
