  • Good view

    I’m an optimist, they are informed realists. Sometimes things aren’t as good as I think, sometimes things aren’t as bad as they think so it works well for me to listen. I’m a fan and I’d have a beer and wings with these guys any time.

    If you’re interested in a VT podcast that is realistic, transparent, and not all rah rah then this is the one for you. Mike, Ricky, and Andrew have good back and forth with 3 unique outlooks at VT Athletics (primarily football and basketball but still good insights). Plus they aren’t going to sugar coat anything for you AND are really interactive online plus in responding to mailbag questions. Great podcast for casual listening and trying to cure any Hokie Hangover you might have.

  • Nuanced Hokie Analysis

    Mike, Ricky and Andrew are some of the best that Hokie media has to offer. In a podcast environment full of baseless homer-ism and pessimism, these guys tell it to you straight. Informed, nuanced, and sometimes pretty darn funny. Would recommend to anyone with an interest in VT Athletics. Keep up the great work gentlemen.
