The Rise of the SP Bookie Part 2 - Sports Bizarre Bizarre with Mick Molloy and Titus O’Reily

    • Sport

By the 1930s, SP bookies were everywhere, with investigations discovering that every pub had an SP bookie, and the rare one that didn’t wasn’t economically viable.

After the radio had changed everything, the next bit of technology was about to change the life of the SP bookie in ways they couldn’t begin to imagine, the telephone.

Titus has three live shows coming up in May in Melbourne. You can get tickets here.
