Did Pennsylvania start as the payment of a gambling debt? Why did American sports betting take so long to legalize? And what do Congress and deadly river accidents have to do with betting?

He's the nation's preeminent gaming historian David Schwartz, a long-time UNLV professor and author of Roll The Bones and Something For Your Money, two of producer Matt Mitchell's favorite books. He loves these books so much he has joined today's episode, and our Action Network trio pepper Professor Schwartz with questions to unearth some of gambling's rich history.
