The Philadelphia 76ers aren’t moving on the radio dial and have announced a multi-year extension with Beasley Media Group’s 97.5 The Fanatic (WPEN) to serve as the team’s flagship radio station. The Fanatic will continue to exclusively broadcast 76ers games, as well as remain the official home of 76ers pre-game, halftime, and post-game shows. Tom McGinnis will return for his 23rd season as the radio voice of the team.
“97.5 The Fanatic has been a tremendous partner and we’re excited to have them as the flagship station of the 76ers for years to come,” Philadelphia 76ers President Chris Heck said. “As our team continues to grow and progress, we’re thrilled that our fans can hear all of the action on 97.5 with legendary 76ers radio voice Tom McGinnis. We’re also looking forward to hearing more 76ers content than ever before across the 97.5 platforms as the city of Philadelphia rallies around our dynamic, young team.”
“We are proud to announce a multi-year extension of our partnership with the Philadelphia 76ers,” said Joe Bell, Vice President and Market Manager of Beasley Media Group’s Philadelphia-based radio properties. “They are a world-class organization with some of the best young talent in the NBA. As the flagship radio station since 2012, we’ll be on the edge of our seats with all the 76ers fans to see what’s next.”
