Gambling with The Pope

By: Ste Turton
  • Summary

  • Ste Turton has been in gambling for over twenty years. He's been discussing sports and betting over the phone with his mate Ben Pope for just as long. Gambling with The Pope turns those funny, intimate calls between two mates into a podcast. Each week they chat odds, angles and all aspects of the sporting world, with comical soundbites, new music and random pop culture topics thrown in for good measure. Sopranos shouts aplenty. Occasionally joined by special guests, the show offers alternative Premier League, boxing, golf and NFL coverage, as well as covering more obscure sports topics. Our betting advice is insightful but informal. Gambling with The Pope won't always make you money, but it will probably make you laugh.
