Get On The Line.
Get On The Line. is a sports podcast that strives to go beyond the surface of scores to explore the untold stories of athletes. Hosted by former D1 athlete Jill Schumacher, this podcast sheds light on the social and personal experiences of athletes that rarely are shown in media. While the media often focuses on the wins, losses, highlights, and stats, Jill dives into the behind-the-scenes moments—the highs, lows, and everything in between—that define the athlete's journey.
