Joe748 and SD1 interview Dr. Timothy Fong, a UCLA professor and leading authority on gambling addiction, about the neuroscience, risk factors, and real-world consequences of gambling disorders. Dr. Fong explains how gambling impacts the brain, why some people are more vulnerable, and discusses both the moral responsibilities of casinos and the urgent need for better regulation and treatment options. The conversation dives deep into the normalization of gambling, the rise of online platforms, and practical advice for those at risk.
