PokerNews has covered the second episode of The Tough Call, a podcast hosted by PokerStars ambassadors Maria Konnikova and James Hartigan. The episode was recorded in Las Vegas and features journalist Jon Ralston as its guest, with the conversation centering on media trust, misinformation, and election forecasting.
Ralston is the CEO and founder of The Nevada Independent, according to PokerNews. The episode’s subject matter connects naturally to Konnikova’s broader background in psychology and deception — PokerNews notes that she was profiled by The New Yorker in 2015, and the outlet summarizes that profile as examining how con artists use stories to mislead people.
The full episode is available on YouTube as well as through Apple Podcasts and Spotify. The first season of The Tough Call is described as a 10-episode run, with new episodes dropping each Tuesday.
Future guests lined up for the season include Bill Perkins, David Epstein, Mark Goffman, and Samm Hunter.
