STAMFORD, Conn. – Apr. 26, 2021 – NBC Sports EDGE today launched its new daily sports betting podcast, “Bet the Edge,” which is hosted by Sara Perlman and analyst Drew Dinsick. The first episode is available now.

Throughout each show, “Bet the Edge” will incorporate advanced insights from NBC Sports EDGE as well as odds, data and analysis from PointsBet, the official sports betting partner of NBC Sports.
“I am thrilled to start this new venture with NBC Sports EDGE,” said Perlman. “Drew and I plan on giving our audience engaging, knowledgeable and entertaining information to help them find their edge in the sports betting space.”
This week, “Bet the Edge” will have daily segments leading up to the 147th Kentucky Derby (Saturday, May 1 at 2:30 p.m. ET on NBC) and the 2021 NFL Draft.
