Meet the Spectator
Born and raised in San Jose, Joe Denzel has lived and breathed Bay Area sports since the days of tailgates at Candlestick and packed nights at the Tank. The man who playfully calls himself "The Joe Machine" only left the Bay Area for his undergrad years at Chico State. Once he returned to the area, he pursued his MBA at Santa Clara University, and even landed a couple of internships in sports along the way.
These days, Joe works in tech by day and laces up for beer league hockey at Sharks Ice by night. Never one to turn down tickets to any sporting event, you can most often find Joe in the stands or at a local brewpub cheering on our Bay Area teams.
Silicon Sports Media is his way of giving back to the region that raised him: spotlighting local teams, elevating fan voices, and celebrating the grit, grace, and glory of Bay Area sports. Whether it’s pro, college, or community-level action, Joe has the passion and voice to share the stories that make our teams more than just scores and stats — they’re part of who we are.
See the Vision
Our Vision Silicon Sports Media is more than a podcast. This is a fan-first platform built to celebrate the full spirit of Bay Area sports. We’re here to amplify the voices of athletes, coaches, and community leaders, but most importantly, the fans who make it all matter.
Our mission is to spotlight the stories, spaces, and experiences that define our local sports culture. Whether you're cheering from the stands, the neighborhood bar, or the beer league bench, we want you to feel seen, heard, and connected. This is your home for discovering how to celebrate your team . From game-day rituals to hidden gems across the region, we celebrate it all.
But we’re not just telling stories — we’re creating them. From hosting tailgate parties and watch events to organizing pre- and post-game meetups, Silicon Sports Media is building real-world experiences that bring fans together. Because sports aren’t just something we watch — they’re something we live.
