Bill Roth is great! So glad he is back in the Blacksburg-Roanoke area. A tremendously valuable resource. Thanks for coming back home, Bill.
I, like Ricky, transferred to VT’s comms program from community college. In fact, I started the VT SPJ chapter in the mid 80s, because while I had more journalism experience than anyone at the CT (I had been freelancing for pay for years for Roanoke Times, Potomac News, etc.), I couldn’t get a CT role because I wasn’t already part of that clique. So all that stuff was really interesting. Thanks for including it.
I hope Tech fans realize the broadcasting jewel we’ve long had in Bill Roth. Both technically and stylistically, he is one of the best in his business. That’s not bias; that’s earnest analysis.
I find Jon Laaser competent and clever. But Bill Roth is the paragon of precision and technique in radio broadcasting and it was a pleasure to listen to him tell me about so many wins over so many years.
This guy is a Tech legend! We miss you Bill!!!!
Finally., someone who knows what they are talking about. 🙂 Love the Podcasts.
Thanks, lol. And yes, we’ll continue to try and bring on special guests periodically throughout the offseason.
Bill – we miss Touchdown Tech!
Thanks, that was a very entertaining 53 minutes.
