About the TSL Podcast
Launched in August 2017, the TSL Podcast is the most widely listened-to and watched Virginia Tech sports podcast. It began as an audio-only podcast, then started streaming live on Facebook in March of 2019 with Episode 66. In the summer of 2019, we built the Tech Sideline Podcast set and started streaming live from the set on YouTube in August of 2019 with Episode 73 (which, bluntly speaking, looks hilariously amateurish to us now).
You can listen on your favorite streaming platform or watch every episode on the Tech Sideline YouTube channel. Be sure to Like and Subscribe while on YouTube.
About TechSideline.com
Tech Sideline is an independent publication, not affiliated with the university or its athletic programs, so we provide a unique perspective that appeals to the large and growing fan base of Virginia Tech Athletics.
Tech Sideline was launched on March 12, 1996 by 1987 Tech graduate (BSEE) Will Stewart as a small, personal web page. In 1997, the site evolved into HokieCentral.com, and in August of 1999, joined the SportsWar network of college sports web sites. In November of 2000, the site changed names to TechSideline.com, or TSL. Over the years, TSL has grown into what you see before you: a full-time Virginia Tech sports media company, complete with web site, podcast, YouTube channel, and large and active social media presences.
TSL is a member of the SportsWar network of college sports web sites. Visit SportsWar.com for more information.

“Fredericksburg is halfway between Charlottesville and Richmond.” Oh my. Chris, please don’t say things like this. I’m gonna have to give the TSL staff a Commonwealth Geography lesson.
First question for the Pittsylvania County boy, please tell me you know where Tightsqueeze is located! 🙂
Ha! Just listened, and that was my immediate reaction. That sums up a problem Tech has always had i.e. “Blacksburg”, Tech administration and greater community, are really clueless about Northern Virginia. To Sands credit, he gets that Tech needs a bigger presence in NoVa.
Was surprised that the TSL gang either don’t get or giving them the benefit of the doubt, purposely chose not to ponder that emphasis at Tech on pronouns, “safe spaces”, canceling controversial speakers is reflected in Sands modest approval ratings. Just a hunch.
Will’s notingAmazon deal sounds like “yeah, Techdoing something up there in NoVa. Guys, this deal with Amazon is huge for the Commonwealth of Virginia, NoVa specifically AND VA Tech.
Sands probably not getting enough credit for that.
Good stuff guys. Just as a fyi, if you listen to people from the company 247 is pronounced 24/7…like 24 hrs 7 days a week..not 2-4-7.
