  • Audio Issue

    It sounds like they are using microphones from the computer or their headphones. I can hear someone playing with something which is very distracting. Had to stop the podcast because I couldn’t take the noise.

    Invest in a proper microphone if you are the host or a guest on a podcast. Set it up right so we don’t hear the room that you are in. Then speak directly into the microphone.

  • Good content but audio quality rough

    Maybe they’re actually trying to sound like they’re in a tunnel?

  • Question for the next podcast

    I love this podcast, extremely informational, easy listen. Go hokies

    Question for the next podcast part one. Virginia Tech likes to recruit brothers. In your opinion who is the biggest brother we have lost out on.

    Part two, did we recruit Mike Glennon. He was a 4 star QB, I tried to look at 247 sports. It did not have a lot of information. All the talk about him recently signing with the Jaguars made me think about this topic.
