In this episode I talk to Brian Wood, or more accurately, my former co-host, Aaron Shapiro talks to Brian Wood, as my audio was garbled. I’m editing a backlog of episodes and I had a mic issue for a while which we didn’t catch so there are a few episodes like this. Moral of the story is don’t record 10 episodes without listening to them.
Brian is the CEO of PanoPick, a peer-to-peer sports betting app that’s goal is not to manipulate you into losing your money and get you gambling addicted while warning you about the possibility of getting addicted, but rather to allow you to have some competitive fun betting against friends and finally figuring out who’s really knows sports the best.
After graduating law school in 2012, Brian went to work at…, uh, actually he went to play poker online in Montreal because it was illegal to play for cash online in the states. Yep, rather than go the big law route, Brian’s been supporting himself playing poker for the past 10 years while he figured out what to do with his life
This was a really fun and different conversation. Hope you enjoy.
