Chad and Blackjack are back, and while the sports they discuss have changed, their loving relationship remains both familiar and beautiful. This week, the guys delve into the NBA All-Star game—game odds, dunk contest odds, three-point contest odds—all of it, and Blackjack has a compelling reason (via Geoff Schwartz) for why LeBron is going home with the MVP trophy. Also, the guys are joined, once again, by A Star is Born writer Will Fetters, who provides a window into what award season has been like for him, ahead of next weekend’s Oscars. And in case it wasn’t clear, we’re all betting on, and wishing luck to A Star is Born. Bring home the gold! Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Chad and Scooch recap the handle on the Get Your Prop Up in Vegas contest and some other props. And then Chad and Scooch talk about the flow of information related to player injuries and how it will affect sports betting as it gets more prevalent across different markets. Then Chad asks Scooch if he would get more bets on the Oscars or an AAF game. Then, after a very special ad read, Chris Raybon comes in to talk Super Bowl futures with BlackJack Fletcher. Why bet Super Bowl futures now? Is it worth betting on anyone other than the Patriots? What outside teams could make a play? Who is the "favorite" according to Chris' model?  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to the Favorites! It's Super Bowl week, so the whole team--Geoff, Paul, Chad, and Blackjack--descended upon Foley's in NYC to record a live podcast, and this one had it all. Seriously. Don't laugh. This one had it all. There was Super Bowl line analysis and picks, a three-round prop bet draft, a Q&A with some of our most loyal fans, and surprise appearances from two (one, if you ask Blackjack) special guests. Oh, and Paul gave the crowd an obscure basketball game to bet on as well. Thanks to everyone who came out, and listen to our Wednesday show with Scooch to see who won the Get Your Prop Up in Vegas contest!

In the last episode of The Favorites before Monday live show, Chad and Blackjack discuss their early predictions for the Super Bowl - and suddenly (predictably?) find themselves on opposite sides and debating a fairly high stakes bet. Then, Georgina reads the boys some prop bets - some real, some fake. One involved SpongeBob, a few involved Tony Romo, and almost none feel like good bets - can they find one to go in on together?  Please subscribe to the show and leave a rating and review on iTunes.  For more info on the live podcast in NYC Monday, go to actionnetwork.com/favorites.
