Randy Karraker is an institution in St. Louis media.
A distinctive voice heard for decades that is instantly recognized by fans of all ages!
Today, Randy applies his tremendous passion for sports, his unquenchable thirst for knowledge, and his amazing mass appeal to viewers of The Fight on Matrix Midwest and The Randy Karraker Show podcast on STL Sports Central.
Prior to joining Matrix Midwest, Randy spent sixteen years hosting the top ranked The Fast Lane on 101 ESPN, and then moved to mornings to host The Opening Drive from 2020-2024. This Missouri Sportscaster of the Year and Achievement in Radio award winner is a member of the St. Louis Sports Hall of Fame, the Lindenwood Athletics Hall of Fame and the Parkway Alumni Hall of Fame.
A lifelong St. Louis sports fan, Randy promised listeners of his afternoon show, The Fast Lane, many years ago that if the Blues ever won the Stanley Cup, he’d get a tattoo to commemorate it. When the Blues clinched the Cup, and a spot in Randy’s heart as his favorite sports moment ever, he made good on his promise and now has a tattoo on his back. A lifelong St. Louisan, Randy is involved with numerous charities including Every Child’s Hope, Folds of Honor, Code 3 Response, and Father’s Support Center, among many others.
