Online sports betting went live in Massachusetts on January 31 and one of the first local sports betting shows in Boston made its debut on Monday on talk radio station WRKO AM 680.
The Gambler With Adam Kaufman will be heard live on Mondays and Thursdays from 10 p.m.-midnight on WRKO and on the iHeartRadio app.
Kaufman is the sports director for iHeartMedia Boston and can be heard giving morning sports reports on WBZ News Radio 1030. He will be joined by Dan Watkins and Brian Antonelli who will contribute to the show.
“There’s no greater platform than live sports talk radio and, since January, there’s no greater obsession in and around Massachusetts than sports betting,” Kaufman said in a statement. “I’ve been fortunate to spend many years of my career working in both areas and I couldn’t be more thrilled to have them intersect now. Boston is ready for a nightly gambling show. I’m honored to host it and can’t wait to sweat bets with listeners, industry experts, and our incredible team.”
