Podcast Spotlight: Wise Kracks

Last updated on August 26th, 2020

Before you try your hand at legal sports betting, take a listen to Wise Kracks because you just might learn a thing or two. Each week, professional sports bettor Bill Krackomberger joins Rosalie Michaels to talk through his hottest sports betting tips. Krackomberger has three decades worth of experience at the ready, and Michaels asks the questions listeners are eager to hear. They’ve covered NBA, MLB, and even PGA betting tips. Did you know MLB odds can be affected by the height of the umpires? Now you do! 

This podcast is so valuable because listeners know these are tried-and-true tips. Each episode features a special guest including casino industry players, pro gamblers, and oddsmakers. Of course, Wise Kracks considers the coronavirus pandemic into recommendations and examines how the modified sports seasons will be affected. Make sure to listen until the end of each episode when Krackomberger shares his picks for the upcoming week – you won’t be disappointed. 

We were fortunate to talk with Krackomberger about the podcast, how they differentiate from other podcasts, and their future plans in podcasting. See below for our full Q&A.

DISCOVER PODS: Why did WSN decide podcasting was the right avenue for your content?

KRACKOMBERGER: WSN does not have frauds and fakes on their site screaming and yelling selling picks. Also, I loved how the site is a one stop shop for sports bettors who are in need of info on where to bet and a plethora of articles from beginner to the sharp.

DISCOVER PODS: Is there much podcasting competition in the sports gambling niche?

KRACKOMBERGER: A ton of competition in this market that is growing each day.

DISCOVER PODS: In your own words, why should listeners tune in to Wise Kracks?

KRACKOMBERGER: Where else can you go and listen to someone who has made a living (a damn good one) successfully betting sports for 25+ years?   No one rivals what I do in the industry.  The tips, strategies and advice I give out are priceless.

DISCOVER PODS: What kind of feedback have you heard from your listeners?

KRACKOMBERGER: Off the charts!!  Everyone loves it. When I talk people listen because they know they can’t get advice like I can give them on this podcast.

DISCOVER PODS: How have you adjusted or revised your show format based on past podcasting experience?

KRACKOMBERGER: We are happy with the current edition of Wise Kracks and are looking forward with experimenting with live shows

DISCOVER PODS: What other podcasts are you listening to now?

KRACKOMBERGER: I listen to podcasts on people that were around Elvis Presley.  Podcasts on mafia history.  Podcasts on positive thinking, self-help.   Surprisingly I don’t listen to many sports podcast. I honestly don’t think anyone out there in that field can add anything to me making money, and time is money.

DISCOVER PODS: Anything else you’d like to add?

KRACKOMBERGER: I am a person who likes to give back to the gambling community.  By giving back, I mean sharing some of the nuggets of wisdom I have picked up over my two decade career in this thing of ours
