In the second episode of the World Series of Politics, Brendan Bussmann of B Global and Brandt Iden of Sportradar discuss developments in Kansas - where regulators have made haste to launch sports betting on 1 September. Brendan and Brandt also look to California, where interest groups have already spent $350m on campaigning for and against ballot initiatives that could bring sports betting to the Golden State, with plenty of time for campaigning to ramp up.
