Host Matt Bednarczyk (Matty B) was born and raised in Philadelphia Pa. After a 30-year career in the US Army, he entered the sports media/podcasting profession in April 2020. Specializing in 4 for 4 Philly Sports, he brought his raw feelings and “tell it like it is” attitude talking “Philly Sports with Matty B” podcast. In just a year and a half he caught the eye of the Edge of Philly Sports, an internet-based Philadelphia sports media company. In the spring of 2022, he launched the “Phightins Pinal,” a Philadelphia Phillies postgame show on the network. It was a huge hit and led EOP to develop other postgame shows including “Clear the Ice,” a Philadelphia Flyers program developed and co-hosted by Matt.
