Young entrepreneur creates gambling safety app - after addict dad left family penniless
A young entrepreneur left to foot the family bills after his father’s secret gambling addiction left them penniless has sold a safety app back to the industry in a bid to stop millions from falling victim.Adam Bradford was just 20 when he received a devastating phone call to say his dad was on his way to prison - after stealing over £50,000 from his employer and racking up £500,000 worth of debt.Totally unaware of his dad’s 30-year addiction to slot machines and online betting, Adam spent years paying off his father's debts, before turning his attention to reforming the gambling industry.Adam, who was diagnosed with autism aged 11, has sold his safety app “Bet Protect” to a global gambling body, and will see it embedded in top online betting sites across Europe, Asia, Africa and America.It comes just a week after Gambling Minister Chris Philp said “reform is undoubtedly long overdue”, and told how the government white paper on the industry would be out next month.Adam, one of only three people in the UK to receive the Queen’s Young Leader Award, said: “When we got the phone call from dad’s lawyer to say he’d gone to prison, we had no idea what for - mum just got off the phone and said “he’s gone”.“It was only when I discovered the paperwork that I saw the house had been re-mortgaged as much as it possibly could, it was actually in negative equity.“He’d racked up £500,000 worth of debt and had stolen £53,000 from his employer, hence why he was being sent to jail.“I effectively became a one-man debt management company. I basically prevented things from completely collapsing, sold the car, saw solicitors and made sure we had a roof over our head.

“Andy Warhol Diaries” assesses Warhol’s life as an artist, influencer, entrepreneur, and gay man.
The Andy Warhol Diaries (★★★★☆) is well worth dipping through its many tangents and digressions to gain an informative, artfully assembled portrait of the artist.Executive produced by Ryan Murphy, and written and directed by Andrew Rossi, the series is based on Warhol’s diary entries, as dictated over the phone to his friend and collaborator Pat Hackett starting in 1976.Opening with Warhol’s description of a “perfect” Thanksgiving spent with his lover Jed Johnson at the rustic home of artist Jamie Wyeth, The Andy Warhol Diaries were published in 1989, two years after Warhol’s death.Appearing in the series, along with several Warhol associates, muses, and fellow artists, Hackett has a ready response for anyone who, then or now, might take issue with how Andy portrayed them.“Of course, it’s subjective,” she insists, adding that if anybody has a problem with it, “write your own diary.” From episode one, the show firmly establishes that Andy Warhol’s voice will guide our voyage through his world.To that end, the filmmakers commit to the unexpected, yet oddly apropos, choice of an artificial Andy Warhol to serve as narrator. Created using an AI program, then further synthesized with the vocal performance of actor Bill Irwin, faux-Andy is tuned to sound like the real Andy, and does just enough to perfectly suit a subject who mused for years that he wished he could be a machine.Eventually, a group of roboticists did engineer an Andy Warhol android, an arduous process captured in footage shown in episode three.
