Show Notes

The World Series of Politics is recovering from a busy G2E, and our dynamic duo reflects on the show floor conversations in episode 23.


Everyone has their voice back to talk igaming, taxes and Florida. 


2024: The year of US igaming?

One of the biggest topics on the show floor was igaming, which made its presence felt at G2E 2023. 


There’s a desire to keep building momentum around US igaming in 2024, but Brendan admits it’s not an easy topic in the legislature. At this point he thinks it’s a matter of when, not if, legalisation passes. 


Florida sports betting saga takes a turn

Next we move onto Florida, where a Supreme Court stay halted mobile blocked the relaunch of mobile betting. Obviously events have moved quickly and that’s now been lifted with the Supreme Court not taking up the case. 


That doesn’t mean it’s a victory for Hard Rock and the Seminole Tribe. The case is still in play in the state Supreme Court, so there’s still a risk things grind to a halt and force a total rethink. 


Listen on for the latest on everything you could possibly want to find out about regulatory affairs in the World Series of Politics!
