About this episode

In a podcast tradition unlike any other, preeminent Hollywood insider and Academy Awards savant Michael Lasker joins Chad Millman and Simon Hunter to preview all things betting for Hollywood's biggest night. A longtime talent manager at Mosaic, Lasker has joined the show annually for half a decade now, sharing his wisdom about the Oscars with his photographic memory covering every major category. This year, nominees battling for Best Picture include ‘Marty Supreme,’ ‘One Battle After Another,’ and ‘Bugonia.’ Best Actor nominees include fan favorites Timothee Chalamet and Leonardo DiCaprio, but Michael B. Jordan looks to take home the statue for his role in ‘Sinners.’

Lasker lets our hosts know where betting value can be found across the major categories, including Best Director, Best Actress, Best Screenplay and more. If you're looking to invest in the Academy Awards, you've found the right podcast! #Volume
