Host Adam Burke and revered guest Brian Blessing talked about all sorts of different sports and sports betting markets on the May 19 edition of BangTheBook Radio. The guys started on the NASCAR side with some thoughts about the Xfinity Series and the NASCAR Cup Series races at Darlington. They gave out their picks and some handicapping tips for how to break down this quick turnaround and the unique circumstances.

After looking back at last week’s Driving Relief Skins Match, the guys looked ahead to The Match II: Champions for Charity with Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning vs. Phil Mickelson and Tom Brady. They talked about betting strategies and props for that event before looking at some horse racing stuff and the potential return of the NHL. They got sidetracked before closing up the show with some breaking news about the Belmont Stakes and the modified horse racing calendar.
