Meet Our Hosts
Meet Marisa Magnatta
The BYO hero and Philadelphia fanatic extraordinaire! When she's not producing the Preston & Steve show on 93.3 WMMR, you can find her indulging in her passion for food faster than you can say "vegan cheesesteak." Hailing from a food-loving Italian American family, she's practically been marinating in marinara since birth.
Marisa's idea of a perfect night out involves hitting up some BYOBs with her gal pals, where she'll carb-load with the gusto of a marathon runner, except her race is to try every restaurant in town. As Philadelphia's self-proclaimed biggest fan, she bleeds whiz and worship at the altar of the almighty Hoagie.
And sports? Oh, you better believe she's all in, repping every local team like they're her own flesh and blood. And don't even get her started on tailgate parties – she throws down like it's the Eagles are in the Super Bowl every Sunday, with a spread that could make a lineman weep tears of joy.
But what truly sets Marisa apart is her heart of gold. When she's not hyping up the local beer scene or cheering on the Eagles, she's busy giving back to her community anyway she can. As Philadelphia's go-to emcee for charity events, she's always ready to lend her voice (and her appetite) to a good cause.
So if you ever need someone to lead the charge on a culinary adventure or to dominate the tailgate scene, Marisa Magnatta is your MVP!
Introducing Dave Wez
The culinary crusader known to his loyal followers as Feeding Time TV on Instagram. By day, he's Dave, the mild-mannered compliance enforcer in a suit and tie, but by night (or whenever hunger strikes), he transforms into a food-fueled superhero!
From local corner pizza joints to Michelin-starred restaurants, Dave's taste buds know no bounds. He'll happily devour a dozen soup dumplings with the same enthusiasm as he would a meticulously crafted gourmet dish – as long as it's drool-inducing, he's all in.
But Dave's love affair with food goes beyond mere consumption. He's a proud ambassador for local culinary culture, always repping some fresh food merch like a true gastronomic fashionista. Whether it's a food festival or a pop-up eatery, you can bet Dave will be there, fork in hand and camera rolling. With each post on the Gram, Dave invites his followers to join him on a culinary adventure unlike any other – one where flavor reigns supreme and calories are merely a suggestion.
So the next time you're in need of some serious food inspiration, look no further than @FeedingTimeTV. With Dave at the helm, every meal is an epic saga, and every bite is a triumph of flavor. Just be sure to bring your appetite – you're gonna need it!
