Shownotes Transcript

Over 18,000 people have signed up for the government’s BetStop register to block them from online gambling and the majority of them are young people.

Guests: 

  • Peter Franklin, director of occupational respiratory epidemiology, University of Western Australia
  • Louise Francis, gambling researcher, Curtin University
