The Elks Call

The Elks Call is back with another packed episode of Edmonton Elks fan talk! We’re thrilled to welcome back a very special guest: Matthew Iwanyk, founding father of Edmonton Sports Talk, cohost of the Green and Gold Pre and Post Game Show, and longtime voice in the Double E community. Matty joins Kathy and Scout to reflect on his last two years in Edmonton sports media, the growth of EST since its launch, and how it’s become a must-listen destination for Elks and CFL fans alike.

Of course, we also dive into football talk—Edmonton’s 3-6 record at the halfway mark, standout performances from players like Justin Rankin, and what to watch heading into this Friday’s clash with the Ottawa Redblacks. Plus, Matty gives his thoughts on the Elks’ playoff chances, quarterback questions, and how fans can be part of the upcoming Labour Day bus trip experience.
