GGB PODCAST: The Late Dr. Bill Eadington & Bo Bernhard, Executive Director, UNLV’s International Gaming Institute

Sun, Jun 12, 2016

This is a special edition of the GGB Podcast, in honor of last week’s International Conference on Gambling and Risk Taking, we bring back a podcast with the founder of the conference, Dr. Bill Eadington, and Bo Bernhard, the executive director of UNLV’s International Gaming Institute, who took over the leadership of the conference when ill health forced him to step down.

Four years ago, Dr. Bill Eadington begrudgingly relinquished control over the conference he founded in the early 1970s, the International Conference on Gambling and Risk Taking. Held every three years, Eadington has been in failing health for several years and wanted to secure the future of the conference, so he turned the reigns over to Bo Bernhard, the executive director of UNLV’s International Gaming Institute. Eadington died in 2013 before the last edition was held. This podcast was recorded at UNLV’s Stan Fulton Building with the founder and the current producer of the conference in 2012 by GGB Publisher Roger Gros, Chris Sieroty, then with the Las Vegas Review Journal, and Ron Sylvester then with the Las Vegas Sun.
