To mention that Ilkim Hincer has had his fingers on the pulse of regulated gambling in Canada and the U.S. over the five years is akin to proclaiming Connor McDavid is a pretty decent player of hockey. Hence, our motivation for some time now to get the former Chair of the Canadian Gaming Association into the virtual studio for an appearance on the Gaming News Canada Show presented by GBG Plc. Not only did Hincer accept our invite, but appeared on the podcast the same week he was appointed the new Chief Legal Officer at gaming industry behemoth GeoComply. Hincer, who left his position as partner and chair of the gaming practice at Fogler, Rubinoff LLP to join GeoComply, let us in on the process that led to his latest position in the business of sports betting and gaming. We also spoke with the one-time senior executive at Hard Rock International about the shifting regulated gambling space, and working with Paul Burns to lead the CGA through a busy three-year tenure as Chair. We also discussed the potential for competitive regulated gambling regimes not only in Alberta, but across the rest of the country. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this introspective episode, Paul LaRoche embarks on a personal and historical journey, uncovering his hidden heritage and documenting his relationship with two different worlds. Armed with an insatiable curiosity and thirst for knowledge, our host delves into the intricacies of the Seminole Tribe. On an illuminating tour of the Brighton Indian Reservation in Florida, led by Willie Johns, a tribal historian and member, they explore the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum, the distinct tribal government and clan system, and the tribe's proud history of resilience against multiple wars with the United States. Through these stories, Paul shares a narrative of the Seminole people, their adaptation strategies, survival mechanisms, and the impressive evolution in preserving their rich culture and tradition against the backdrops of Florida's development. Revealing the tribulations and breakthroughs of the Seminole Tribe, the episode transitions from the historical to the modern-day successes and challenges the tribe faces. The account captures the tribe's significant milestones, from establishing their own educational system and obtaining financial independence through business ventures like B-I-N-G-O and Hard Rock International and their thriving cattle industry. This episode is a celebration of the Seminole Tribe's spirit and their innate adaptability for their cultural heritage. A fascinating blend of personal history and the account of a Native American tribe, this episode promises a seamless blend of personal anecdotes, revelations, and hidden treasures of Native American history.
We are all going to miss Tommy DeVito this week with the Giants on a bye. Instead we get Tim Boyle against the Falcons at MetLife where the Jets are underdogs. If the Jets win, will Brandon Tierney have another ‘unkillable' moment? Joe Flacco may end up starting for the Browns this Sunday. Gio has a Mike Tyson story that includes the one impression he does of him. Jerry returns for a brief update including the Moment of The Day which involves Gio's love for Dua Lipa. We are then joined by Jim Allen, Chairman of Hard Rock International. We talked about the potential casino near Citi Field. In the final segment of the show, our NFL picks and Yussef was back!
Hour 1 Last night the Cowboys/Seahawks game had a ton of offense and no points as the Cowboys won 41-35. But the story of the game was the amount of penalties called: 25 total called and 19 accepted for a total of 257 yards. The Niners go into Philadelphia this week in what is sure to be the game of the week. People will not believe in the Cowboys until they win playoff games. Jerry returns for an update but first Gio was in the city yesterday and saw Camila Cabello in a coffee shop. Nantz and Romo are off this week because they worked two games last weekend. Jerry thinks it's ‘soft' and thinks Tony Romo probably wanted the week off. Jerry has audio from last night's Cowboys win as Dak threw for 3 TDs. Mike McCarthy looks like a guy that would have GERD. Patrick Mahomes will play at Lambeau Field for the first time ever. Jerry finishes with energetic calls from the Devils and Islanders wins. In the final segment of the hour, Sports Illustrated named Deion Sanders their Sportsperson of The Year even though they are now 4-8. If not Deion, then who? Damar Hamlin maybe? Dak Prescott? Nikola Jokic? Hour 2 Aaron Rodgers said he understands the risk of coming back too early, but said it wouldn't be a problem because he would have time to rehab before next season. He also spent the entire day after being injured, crying. Gio said now there's no doubt he's coming back to play this s eason. The Jets only have a 0.9 % chance of making the playoffs. Rodgers was also answering phones in the Jets season tickets office this week. We also took calls on who should have been Sportsperson of The Year instead of Deion Sanders. Jerry returns for an update and starts with audio from last night's Cowboys win over the Seahawks. Dez Bryant is upset with Craig Carton after Craig said of Dak's girlfriend, he had to question if she's a ‘gold digger'. Tyreek Hill talked about his time in KC and said Mahomes was too close to Kelce but it sounds like he was sort of joking. In the final segment of the hour, when bacon is bad, it's really bad. Hour 3 Gio heard a story that Mark Gastineau threatened to beat up Brett Favre at an autograph signing for handing Michael Strahan the sack record. A caller said he has Gastineau's old Christmas tree. Gio said he bought a live tree and it cost him $300! Karen Carson and Johnny Mingione called in with an update on Dua Lipa coming on our show. Jerry returns for an update and starts with audio from last night's Cowboys win over the Seahawks. Dak Prescott talked about being blessed being the Cowboys QB. A goalie scored a goal for the Penguins last night. In the final segment of the hour, could Jim Harbaugh become available for an NFL team? Would he use the NFL as leverage to get another college coaching job? He is going to want total control of an NFL franchise. Maybe Chicago, where he played for the Bears? Gio thinks David Tepper of the Panthers will go nuts and offer Harbaugh a ton of money. Hour 4 We are all going to miss Tommy DeVito this week with the Giants on a bye. Instead we get Tim Boyle against the Falcons at MetLife where the Jets are underdogs. If the Jets win, will Brandon Tierney have another ‘unkillable' moment? Joe Flacco may end up starting for the Browns this Sunday. Gio has a Mike Tyson story that includes the one impression he does of him. Jerry returns for a brief update including the Moment of The Day which involves Gio's love for Dua Lipa. We are then joined by Jim Allen, Chairman of Hard Rock International.

The foundation has been critical to assisting financially distressed individuals and ensuring that chapters continue to offer value to their community. Kevin Kirby's story Kevin describes himself as an accidental meeting professional. Early in his career, he was involved in theme parks in Ohio and Western New York. His love of hospitality eventually got him to Universal in Orlando, where he got introduced to the meeting and events business. Transitioning Making the transition from Universal to Disney was not a voluntary choice on Kevin's part. He lost his job with Universal because they went through a corporate reorganization. It was a humbling experience for him after all the good work he had done and the success he had achieved. Disney Kevin received a call from someone at Disney, inviting him to join their events team. A challenge It was a challenge for Kevin to move from Universal to Disney, which has one of the strongest cultures and brands in the world. Volunteering Volunteering has always been important for Kevin. He was a member of the non-profit MPI for more than twenty-four years, and now, he works there and feels passionate about it. A once-in-a-lifetime experience Kevin was fortunate to deal with some great people at Hard Rock. He loved giving people a once-in-a-lifetime experience during his time there because he feels that is what the meeting and events business is all about. Kevin Kirby's philosophy on building relationships Creating an emotional experience for people involves building relationships, being a good thought-partner, and helping people out. That has been a common theme throughout Kevin's career, and it is what he enjoys about the meetings and events industry. Repositioning after 2020 Business owners have to find new ways to keep their businesses open. Rebranding Recovery appears to be on the horizon. Have faith and take some time to self-reflect. Then take the opportunity to reintroduce your brand as something compelling. Be aware of your environment. Let people know that you care about them, and you will do your best to adapt to their changing needs. Building trust Always remember to take care of your team. That is a critical aspect of marketing. Building trust is as much about your team as it is about building external relationships. Conferences Attending conferences is about cultivating relationships and finding business opportunities. Conferences are also there to provide professional education. The best business relationships The best business relationships come out of mutual respect, understanding, and genuinely caring. Face-to-face Nothing equals the impact of a face-to-face meeting. The body language, handshakes, and hugs let people know that they appreciate one another and what they do. MPI MPI betters people's lives by upskilling their abilities and providing career opportunities. Last year, they distributed just less than $700,000 to more than 2,230 distressed members and non-members globally. They are rolling out some initiatives towards planned giving for people in the late stages of their careers, and they will soon introduce some new partners. They are currently motivated to bring in money to help people. Support Last year, the leaders of the IMEX group decided to support the efforts of MPI by donating $250,000 to the organization. The key Relationships have been the key to what MPI has managed to achieve. They have a board of trustees that believes in what they are doing and continues to support them. Humor Kevin has always enjoyed being able to laugh at himself and at any situation he finds himself in. Kevin Kirby's thoughts on faith There will always be moments of self-doubt. Have faith, trust in a greater calling, believe that there is a path for you, and don't take anything personally, according to Kevin. Know that there is a better opportunity waiting in every circumstance, Believe in yourself Trust yourself. Trust your gut, and surround yourself with people who support you. If you believe in something, push it. You will be surprised at the outcome.
