Cumulus Media is debuting a new local morning show at News/Talk 810 KGO San Francisco while moving the syndicated Armstrong & Getty over to sister Conservative Talk 560 KSFO.
Nikki Medoro will move from serving as co-host/news anchor for afternoon host Chip Franklin to anchoring “The Morning Show with Nikki Medoro” from 6-10am. She will be joined by Bret Burkhart as co-host/news anchor. Medoro has been with KGO since 2011 and previously served as an anchor and reporter for KLIV San Jose and KFBK Sacramento. Burkhart has been with KGO since 1999 and has also worked at KPAY Chico and KFBK Sacramento.
The remainder of the KGO schedule will remain in-tact, while Armstrong & Getty’s syndicated show moves to 6-9am at KSFO. The Sacramento based show debuted on KGO in April 2016 after previously being heard in the market on 910 KKSF.
The new lineups will take effect on Monday, March 2 and follow the retirement of KSFO morning host Brian Sussman last month.
CUMULUS MEDIA announces that its legendary San Francisco talk radio stations KGO and KSFO will each debut new morning shows on Monday, March 2, 2020. Popular nationally syndicated radio program, The Armstrong & Getty Show will move from KGO (810 AM) to KSFO (560 AM) and will be heard weekdays from 6:00am to 9:00 am PST.

Veteran newsman Bret Burkhart joins host Nikki Medoro to deliver a dynamic new morning show to Bay Area listeners.
Doug Harvill, Vice President and Market Manager for Cumulus San Francisco, said: “Nikki Medoro is a compelling and proven talk show host. Her upbeat and engaging personality makes her the perfect fit to take over mornings on KGO. She’ll team with veteran news anchor Bret Burkhart to deliver an entertaining, informative and interactive morning show. At the same time, Armstrong and Getty have established a very dedicated and loyal Bay Area audience that will follow them to sister station KSFO.”
Lee Hammer, Operations Manager, Cumulus San Francisco, and KGO/KSFO Program Director, said: “Nikki has done a tremendous job working with Chip Franklin in afternoon drive, and she’s earned this opportunity to host mornings on KGO.
