Save Your Game host, Frankie Ward, says: “I was thrilled to be asked to host the podcast, firstly because it means working with Red Bull, who I’ve loved partnering with in the past. They make a real difference in esports, and in helping gaming talent breakthrough.

“I’m also excited because it means getting to delve further into the gaming histories of my guests, and finding out how the games that mean most to us speak volumes about who we were when we played those games, and the impact they have on who we are today.”

Save Your Game will launch Thursday 17th June, with subsequent episodes released every two weeks on Red Bull’s website and major podcast platforms like Apple and Spotify.
