Play-by-Playcast

Matt Martucci is one of the most well traveled broadcasters in this industry.  He's done (or still does) work for St. Joe's, Lincoln University, Fox Sports Regional, Campus Insiders, Comcast, Verizon Fios, Westwood One, Sirius/XM, WIP, The Fanatic, The Philadelphia Soul, The Atlantic City Surf, the LAX Sports Network and most recently became the lead voice for the Conference USA football package on beIN Sports.

Matt graduated in 2006 from Syracuse University, a product of WAER radio.  Some of my earliest exposure to Tooch's work was as a freshman, sitting in my dorm room at the Sheraton Hotel -- yeah, it was sweet -- listening to him call DePaul dropping 100 on the Orange.  It's okay -- Gerry McNamara led the Orange on a crazy run to the NCAA Tournament that year.   

To find Tooch on social media, his twitter handle is @toochPxP.  

Jon Laaser is in his second season as voice of the Virginia Tech Hokies.  He's had a sinuous path through the broadcasting world that's taken him to 10 different states and countless minor league baseball teams and more.  Hear Laas talk all about climbing that ladder and eventually staking out his place at a Power 5 school.

Joe Davis was deemed the heir apparent to the great Vin Scully upon his hiring by the Los Angeles Dodgers a season ago.  He's one of the best young broadcasters in the industry today, working for both the Dodgers and Fox Sports.  His worked his way up through Minor League Baseball eventually landing at ESPN at just 25 years old.  

In this edition of the podcast Davis discusses Vin Scully and the Dodgers, his route through college as both a football player and broadcaster, his career in the minors and much more.  Follow Joe on social media @Joe_Davis and follow the podcast @PxPCast.

Bob Wischusen has one of the busiest schedules of any broadcaster this time of year.  On Thursday he'll have an NFL radio call on Westwood One.  On Saturday he'll call college football for ESPN TV.  On Sunday he calls the radio broadcast for the NY Jets.  On the seventh day he rests?

Bob talks all about juggling a schedule like that, his prep work, his self-evaluations and what makes him happy when he thinks about a broadcast just completed.  Follow Bob on social media @espnbob and follow the podcast @PxPCast.

JB Long went to college at Notre Dame.  There is no broadcasting program in South Bend.  They have a student radio station but Long went to school with ideas of a career in finance.  That last...well, not very long...Long soon found himself working in local TV before climbing his way through various major networks including the B1G, MLB and PAC-12 Networks.  This summer his career took another huge step forward when he was announced as the new voice of the LA Rams.  JB was also supposed to be part of the NBC Rio Olympics coverage before the Rams job came together.

Long touches on all those topics and more on this week's PxPCast.  Follow the podcast on twitter @PxPCast or @JoelGodett.  Follow JB @RamsRadio and @JB_Long.
