More changes at Cumulus, as the "Lamont & Tonelli" show on 107.7 The Bone is no more. The duo has been on Bay Area airwaves for 35 years together (20 at The Bone). Cumulus laid off longtime KNBR host Tom Tolbert after 28 years on Wednesday (SFGATE): sfgate.com/sports/article…

Glad I was able to make a surprise appearance for Tom Tolbert Tom Tolbert's last show on KNBR. Great to see Tommy and the crew. Amazing last show. Legend of Bay Area radio!

Yep, I'm not going to argue that radio is booming and needs to pay everybody the salaries they used to make. I'm not railing at any sign of change. But doing this to Tolbert is the last thing KNBR should've done if it cared about its remaining listeners.

"How does a shit-for-brains like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. come to be described as a 'vaccine skeptic' in the New York Times, in 2024, when he absolutely is not one, and when there is also no such thing as one?"

I've had soul-enriching conversations with my friends who got caught up in the latest local corporate media massacre. Their ability to be funny, empathetic & even pragmatic during this is a testament to how they're all just good people. Nothing but love for all of you. Onward...

Most interesting sentence in Alex's excellent piece: "What the move means for KNBR’s longest-tenured partner in the San Francisco Giants, however, is unknown ahead of the final season under their current contract."

“KNBR will also move its primary broadcasts...to its studios at San Francisco’s renowned Levi Stadium..." the release reads. ...does Cumulus think Levi's is in the city? Are they unaware they're asking their employees to commute to Santa Clara??

Like Bob Marley said in "Coming in from the Cold"..."when one door is closed, many more is open"

Emotional week at KNBR — just want to say we appreciate all of you and the communal feels … the calls, the texts, the connections. Radio is personal at its core and we felt it all. The good and the bad. Life.

Yeah that’s typically where they miss them.

New pod! The great David B. Flemming joins me on this week's There R Giants pod. We talk a little bit of KNBR, and a whole lot of Buster Posey. It's good! You should listen. open.substack.com/pub/rogermunte…

RIP Johnny Cooks/ Gout Man. His calls to Gary’s show were always sports talk at its best. Johnny was a really sweet guy, my condolences to his family. Here’s Johnny with Canyon Inn owner, Tim Harrison.

Kuip knows how to fix Brian Murphy's attitude on the golf course.

If Podz has to wear that mask again, we might see a grown man cry.

Can't imagine a world without the Giants on KNBR but it seems headed that way
