The ICK factor with prediction markets is so blatantly obvious. I have no idea why making money from death is somehow on your radar Stu. How about making the world a better place by informing your fellow Americans about the encroaching *already here* socialist police state? https://corbettreport.substack.com/p/what-no-one-is-saying-about-polymarket. Your influence and platform should be a place for empowerment. Not gambling. Ewww...

Appreciate the comment, but the story was about how those types of death markets are not legal.

Dude, give it a rest. Stu is doin' his thing. He's a nerd when it comes to stats and the markets, and he said at the beginning of this episode that it'd be cool if someone in the media learned about this stuff before spreading uninformed lies all over the internet. Dude's not promoting gambling (so far), we can probably wager on that outcome somewhere 😉, he's promoting humans being informed before doing something stupid. And THAT's using his platform for good. I repeat: give it a rest.

You've probably spoken about this already, I won't claim I've caught all your content yet. Is there a "best platform" for betting on politics and/or economics? I know you aren't sponsored, so feel free to skirt judiciously around my question. 😅

In the US, Kalshi is by far the biggest exchange offering those types of investments in politics. The other big dog is Polymarket, but they only offer political markets on their overseas exchange for the time being. That should be changing very soon, but no official date yet. There are other players coming into the space as well.

Question: if Bryson DeChambeau saw a UFO then traded it on Kalshi, that's insider trading, correct?
