   Ep. 165 - When the Fun Stopping Starts

   This action-packed episode is being simulcast on YouTube, the first and last time we're doing a video to accompany the podcast, so learn to live with disappointment. In addition to doing a news dump, we also interview Ted Hartwell, Director of Storytelling for the Nevada Council on Problem Gambling. They're the folks who put out the famed "When the Fun Stops" brochure that's being replaced with a refreshed version you may have seen in your favorite casinos.

Criss Angel and Brian Christopher also drop in, sorta.
