Hey! I'm Vivek Iyer, the host of the Fantasy and Sports Podcast. What the show is all about is giving you all player to player fantasy football advice. I've noticed that many shows aren't year round, however I will be podcasting throughout the fantasy offseason and the regular season, usually once a week. I'll also be talking about sports more generally, primarily the NFL. Thank you so much and welcome to the Fantasy Sports family, and I hope that you will start and continue listening.
