Gambling & Gaming in Media Blog Series Part 1: Introduction

Welcome Central Fraser Gambling Support community! I appreciate you taking the time to visit the page and reviewing the various resources. I want to firstly introduce myself; my name is Armin, I am contracted community engagement and ways prevention provider for Gambling Support BC. If you feel compelled to get in touch and communicate your thoughts, feelings or just simply to say hello, please visit the contact page. I look forward to hearing from you 😊

As an ongoing effort to facilitate critical thinking for myself and others, I will be stating a weekly blog series about gambling-related issues represented in contemporary and traditional media sources. I will watch/review various movies, TV shows, video games, and other media sources that are centered around gambling and gaming to discuss how these concepts are represented and the connection it may have with our daily lives. Furthermore, I will attempt to incorporate supplemental literature and where applicable, writings or analyses conducted by the global community.

For my first post, I will be covering the more recent Ocean’s 11.

Stay tuned…
