MY REVIEW OF BLAIR RODMAN’S NEW SPORTS BETTING BOOK

Sports betting doesn’t have nearly the reading list nor depth of other gambling endeavors — including poker, blackjack, and other casino games. In fact, most sports gambling books are utterly worthless.

In this video, I explain some of the history and background on sports gambling handicapping guides and narratives and grade this new book as to where it fits in to the lexicon of sports wagering.

I also share a few minor criticisms, though overall this is a book I will highly recommend to all people who enjoy wagering on sports or find the subject interesting.

Correction: At one point in the video, I misspoke and said “under” when I meant to say “over” on the story about golf.

Video Duration: 14 mins.

HAVE YOU LOST FRIENDS BECAUSE OF POLITICS?

Many of us have lost friends and even family members because of the deep political divide.

But instead of lamenting the loss, perhaps we should celebrate our greater awareness and embrace opportunities to meet someone new.

In this video, I address the situation that’s probably impacted most of you reading this, while providing a very different perspective on debate and division.

Video Duration: 9 minutes.

TURN ‘ON’ YOUR MIND, RELAX, AND FLOAT DOWNSTREAM

It was 60 years ago today, on August 11, 1966, the Beatles embarked on their final live tour. This date –in particular- rocked the group to its core, altered pop music history, and ignited an explosive social-cultural-generational divide that still remains with us to this day.

In this video, I discuss highlights and the many disasters and controversies with that final world tour and American schedule of performances. It really did re-shape many things to come.

Note: The unscripted video is much longer than usual, at 22 minutes. I also stumble in parts, which almost caused me to skip it and trash it and just take the day off. If this topic or length isn’t your thing, then scroll on. Full confession–I’m doing these videos as much for myself as anyone because frankly, I enjoy making them. Sometimes, I’m going to turn on the smartphone, talk, hit the record–and float downstream. Join me on these journeys if you like.

ARE LAS VEGAS RESTAURANTS TRYING TO SKEW YOUNGER?

We enjoyed our dinner at Piero’s last night. I was joined by Nick Christenson and Paul Harris. As usual, the food was terrifically deliciously consistent. Once again, a visit to Piero’s never disappoints. Wonderful dinner and great company.

WHAT’S THE DIRECTIONAL ARROW ON MAJOR FAST-FOOD RESTAURANT CHAINS?

Two things happened today that I’d like to share.

First, the Arby’s Roast Beef location in my neighborhood closed down permanently. Shocker. They’d been open for at least 20 years since I moved to the area. This was a surprise. I also saw that the iconic Arby’s on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood shut down recently. So, this is apparently a nationwide downsizing.
