iHeartMedia news/talk outlet WRKO, Boston adds the local sports betting program “The Gambler with Adam Kaufman” in the 10:00 pm to 12:00 midnight – Monday through Thursday – slot beginning this evening (5/1). Adam Kaufman – sports director at iHeartMedia Boston – hosts the show with contributions from Dan Watkins
and Brian Antonelli. iHeartMedia Boston director of operations, news, talk and sports Bill Flaherty says, “Everyone I talk to is now betting on sports. With the interest at a fever pitch, I can’t think of a better time to launch this show.” Kaufman adds, “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. 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 starting May 1.”
