On the 22nd episode of the World Series of Politics, Brendan Bussmann and Robin Harrison are joined by Mike Whittle, senior vice president and general counsel at professional baseball team the St. Louis Cardinals to discuss the development of sports betting in Missouri.

But change could be on the horizon. The St. Louis Cardinals is part of a coalition of professional sports teams in Missouri that filed new petitions last month to bring sports betting to Missouri.
