Podcast doesn’t match web content, and can be problematic
The contributors to the podcast often espouse their opinions as fact, or over generalize their experiences as representative of all experiences. That is a misrepresentation of a broad set of experiences and they don’t seem to be aware of that (or at least don’t acknowledge it). They are three VERY banked white guys who don’t register things like banks declining transactions, being unbanked, or having responsible gambling problems. In terms of regulation they are gambling maximalists and libertarians, with no regard for consumer safeguards or protections. Hopefully they become a bit more nuanced in their views as their profile raises.
