The Georgia General Assembly is set to take up debate on new laws this year as they make their way through committees in the State House and Senate this year over an issue that some citizens will want, and others won’t: gambling. 

More specifically, this episode hopes that you’ll gain a greater understanding of a new bill making its way through the state house that will allow websites to take payments from Georgia residents – technically illegal at the moment within our borders. 

Joining me to help explain what’s happening is Billy Linville, spokesman for the Georgia Professional Sports Alliance.
