One Year Anniversary and a Giveaway

On September 28th, 2014, history was made.   A humble little podcast was released to the world.  Steve (Father) and Jake (Son) decided that it would be fun to sit down and record what we love to talk about, video games.

So we did, and the GamerVantage Podcast with Steve and Jake was born.

It's been a year now and in honor of that, on our next podcast we will be giving away a digital code for a AAA PS4 game and all you need to do win is listen.   I'll be reading off the code during the next podcast so be sure to listen in for your chance to win!

Game on!
