Shownotes Transcript

March Madness season may be a good time for problem gambling awareness month.

According to the American Gaming Association, more than $3 billion will be bet legally on this year’s NCAA basketball tournament games.

The FanDuel TV streaming show "The Comeback With Craig Carton" is trying to create that awareness and help people avoid and overcome gambling addiction.

Carton was a high-roller addict, eventually costing him his freedom, his marriage, and his dream job as one of the most popular, highest-paid sports-talk hosts in the country.

He's back on the air, co-hosting “Breakfast Ball” on Fox Sports 1, and hosts a podcast and radio show.

Craig Carton joined the FOX News Rundown’s Chris Foster to discuss his story, the rapid growth of the legal gambling industry, and how he is now trying to help people who may be struggling with addiction.
