Arlene on me. Arghggh. Is this a loyalty test? Funnier than the last one though. Guess the schoolboy/girl humour won through. Don’t do it too often! 😂😂

sturdyalex.bsky.social•172 days ago

HA. SHE BEAT YOU DOWN.

Just about to start watching on YT . And this ad . FFS

sturdyalex.bsky.social•172 days ago

We have turned gambling ads off on the channels we control. But visually you are in YouTube’s hands, I’m afraid.

alexisconran.bsky.social•172 days ago

Thanks Alex. Every little helps.

andydrummond.bsky.social•172 days ago

Apple Podcasts seems determined to serve me ads in German, so they could be for anything.

ianrobo.bsky.social•172 days ago

Not listened yet but I have been consistent all gambling adverts and sponsroships should be banned, the question is will the govt do that, same old tired arguments when we had smoking bans ... however the other one are the crypto adverts which are all over podcasts I listen to and I listen to a lot

“Gambling reform”— just to see this phrase uttered is Matrix-shattering. In the same way cigarette smoking has substantially vanished from the US scene in the past quarter century with little recognition, gambling has soaked our entire landscape (as “gaming”), and it goes unremarked.

Tuning in!

Listened this morning, great show.
On gambling reform, I wonder how the government would square gambling reform with the National Lottery, which is basically state sponsored gambling. If gambling advertising were to be restricted, would National Lottery ads be restricted also?

richardhoward.bsky.social•172 days ago

But the National Lottery have always had a “one rule for you another for us” setup. That’s how somehow it was ok for 16 year olds to buy tickets but to _gamble_ you had to be 18. I’m sure they’ll just do more of the same.

sturdyalex.bsky.social•172 days ago

Good question.

alicemerray.bsky.social•172 days ago

Am pretty much on board with having no gambling ads at all.
How do you all feel about the state encouragement to gamble that is the National Lottery though?
