About this episode
Are you a news junkie? Do you wish you could bet on election outcomes or world events? Today's guest Alex "Keendawg" Keeney is an expert in doing just that. He joins Action Network hosts Chad Millman and pro gambler Simon Hunter to discuss the world of online prediction markets, and how thousand of traders invest millions of dollars in markets as diverse as the next GOP presidential nominee to the margin of victory in a mayoral primary. Keeney is the founder of Star Spangled Gamblers and host of their popular podcast, which has become the leading source of information about political prediction markets. Prior to founding SSG, Alex was a screenwriter in Hollywood, a policy advisor in the U.S. House of Representatives, and a marketing executive for Jordan Belfort, better known as the real Wolf of Wall Street.
