Been listening since day 1

Followed Jake Baldino for years with Gameranx, and have listened to every episode through YouTube and ended up subscribing to both skill up and the completionist aswell! I just got audible and thought I'd keep up with it on here. thanks, guys, for great content!

Love to just hear these folks chat about gaming

I usually watch on YouTube on skillups channel but sometimes If I wanna garden or I’m on a drive it great to listen via podcast on here.
