William “Tra” Thomas was the 11th overall pick in the draft from Florida State University and is recognized for his 12-year NFL career as an All Star left tackle.
“These moves for 97.5 The Fanatic put the brand in an even stronger position for our listeners and customers moving forward,” said VP of Programming Buzz Knight. “They also demonstrate that Beasley Media Group is committed to great talent and content acquisition.”
“We are very excited to be adding Marc Farzetta and Tra Thomas to The Fanatic lineup,” said Content Manager Eric Johnson. “I’ve been a fan of Marc’s since he started on the air in Philly in the mid 2000s. He’s evolved into a major talent in town, growing from Update Anchor and Time Out Entertainer at Temple basketball games to Radio Talk Show Anchor and NBC Sports Philadelphia Host.”
