  • Daily Spread Podcast
    Spank em’!

    If you’re going to record while sick, please for the love of god don’t constantly cough directly in the microphone. Gross

    Fun Pod but won’t help you win
    Spanky interview the most iconic people in sports betting and their stories are so real and incredible. The only issue is that Spanky made all of his money in a different time and the podcast does not really help anybody win. Maybe if he we all had Spanky’s tech and all that stuff but as far as helping an average person win this pod doesn’t do it. It’s really a history of sports betting and the players involved, it does that beautifully and maybe only pod doing that. I just think maybe the title should be the history of sports betting rather than being better bettors is because it doesn’t help you win

    Solid Podcast!
    Really enjoy it.
  • Rkazmier
    Host can’t speak English
    Horrible. When you’re hosting a show that is all audio you don’t pronounce it “be bettuh bettuhs” for crying out loud. Unlistenable.
  • lakerboy1
    Great!
    Thanks for your podcasts i really enjoy them!
  • KylekyleHomer
    Awsome

  • LocksNonStop
    Altruistic Phony
    This guy is the worst of the worst in the industry. Lies, cheats, steals harder than anyone. And now he gets on a soapbox and gives everyone a “Business Ethics 101” sermon. Hilarious. He also speaks like he’s got a bucket of marbles in his mouth.
  • ...........mb
    Wow
    I have been listening to Gambling With an Edge for years, did not know this show existed until now, this is in the top five informational gambling podcasts ever, seriously. Not many shows compete with that and this one does

    A weekly education
    If you want to truly understand the sports betting industry, and what drives it, this podcast is a must. I’ve been betting sports for over 25 years. I’ve read numerous books, been involved with forums, spent countless hours testing angles and theories. However, nothing has helped me more than listening “between the lines”, of each episode.

    Most Respected Sports Bettor
    I’m in Costa Rica. I know the ins and outs. Spanky is one of the best bettors in the world. Every bookmaker down here fears him. He’s the real deal. No one even comes close.
  • Yoloswag5799326
    Best gambling podcast in existence
    Sparky is overflowing with knowledge and never hesitant to share. Evergreen content. Must listen for anyone looking to become a little less square. Keep up the great work and thank you Spank
  • Lyricsmith819
    Excellent
    Real guy, knows his stuff and gives more to his audience than anyone else in the field, almost to the point where it feels like it could hurt his earn. If I had that much to give I certainly couldn’t just give it away. Respect.
  • JPgama
    Unique Guests
    Spanky delivers guests you won’t hear anywhere else, touching on betting past and present. The interview are long, which allows going into depth.
  • nopork
    The best
    Amazing stuff. Cannot wait for the next episode to drop. Keep it coming!
  • smoore1982
    Real talk
    Ignore the spaz podcasts that have 15 plays a week across 5 sports and pay attention to this
  • LesterM18
    Ray Marino interview amazing stuff!!
    Just want to say huge props and congrats for that interview with Ray Marino. Thanks to him for pulling back the curtain on the industry and to you for some key questions we all wanted to know about. Just spot on—so well done!
  • gballing
    Such interesting characters
    The best part for me is learning all the life stories of a really interesting set of guests and how they got into their part of the gambling profession. Spanky does really well to get people to tell their stories with enthusiasm and they all seem to have found fulfillment in their lives and have great stories about the history and evolution of the business and their keys to being successes on their terms. A great listen every week.

    5* gambling podcast
    Very useful advice to give a useful perspective on how to gamble in sports. Keep up the great work, Spanky!

    Be Better Bettors
    The title already hit home for me. I’ve been striving to find a small nitch in the game. This man’s words are worth something. You just have to listen closely.
  • Captainkb24
    Excellent Pod
    He’s new to podcasting. But the content is 2nd to none. Experience will come, and the show will gradually polish into one of the top Gambling podcasts on the market. Buy Low!
  • Jggda
    Educational
    Love the podcast - no bs and educational
  • Billy_D_123
    A fantastic listen!!!!
    Real world advice from a guy who has lived it his whole life. This isn’t a picks show, it’s about what goes into making a pick. Great mix of advice, stories, and a little philosophy mixed in as well. Perfect for anyone on the sports gambling spectrum top to bottom-all delivered with a no nonsense approach. No attitude, no BS, no air of superiority. Super down to earth guy who tells it like it is! Do yourself a favor and listen to Spanky lay it down...with some smooth, baritone vocal stylings to boot. A+ podcast.
