    Ed Toller scammed nearly $1.8 million from unsuspecting investors—not to fund a lavish life, but to feed a gambling addiction he couldn’t control. In this raw and revealing episode, Ed sits down with Adam Shand to unpack the real cost of compulsive betting, the lies that spiraled out of control, and the prison sentence that changed everything. It’s not just a story about crime—it’s a story about denial, addiction, and redemption in the gambling capital of the world.
