This week, the TDN is adding a new show to its expanding podcast lineup by introducing 'Bettor Things with Joe Bianca', which will be the publication's first podcast focused solely on handicapping and betting. The show will feature in-depth one-on-one conversations with the host of TDN's popular Writers' Room podcast and some of the brightest wagering minds in the handicapping world. The interviews will delve into strategies for playing the horses as well as sports betting, but also branch out into more general life topics to learn what makes the guests tick and who they are as people.
In the first episode, which is now available on YouTube, Bianca welcomes David Aragona, who is the morning-line maker for the New York Racing Association, a highly-regarded handicapper for Timeform US and Daily Racing Form and a podcast host himself for Timeform US. Over a cocktail or two, Bianca and Aragona discussed their origin stories for becoming horseplayers, their shared frustrations in trying to get friends their age to pick up the game, what they've learned over the years that can help produce positive returns on investment, how they see the future of racing evolving and much more. In addition to YouTube, the Bettor Things video shows are available on the TDN homepage, and audio versions will be posted to the TDN podcast feed on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
