With the cancellation of CUMULUS Sports KTCT-A (KNBR 1050)/SAN FRANCISCO's "THE AUDIBLE" morning show in favor of ESPN RADIO programming (NET NEWS 7/31), that show's co-hosts, former SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS utility infielder KEVIN FRANDSEN and DREW HOFFAR, are moving to sister Sports KNBR-A as hosts of a new evening show "KNBR TONIGHT," debuting AUGUST 14th and airing 7-10p (ET) weeknights or immediately after GIANTS games.
PD JEREMIAH CROWE said, “DREW and KEVIN are primed to make a huge impact in their new roles within KNBR TONIGHT. Their work ethic is unmatched and both are committed to the smallest of details that will generate a great listener experience. They are BAY AREA natives whose personalities are relatable to the common fan, yet they each possess a vast knowledge of the overall sports landscape. I’m equally excited to see what they will provide us digitally and I applaud CUMULUS SAN FRANCISCO for putting them in a position to shine. BAY AREA sports fans will find unmatched opinion, insight and humor each evening when they tune in from 7:00-10:00pm.”
FRANDSEN said, “In my time as a major leaguer, I prided myself on performing in several roles as a utility player. Since arriving at KNBR. I’ve had the pleasure of working with some of the format’s most established personalities across a variety of timeslots. This evening post on KNBR TONIGHT is a chance to advance my relationship with one of the best young talents in radio, connect with the best sports fans in the country and move the KNBR brand forward into the digital age. DREW and I are looking forward to starting on AUGUST 14th and KNBR 680 fans can expect a local-born show with established chemistry out of the gates.”
HOFFAR said, “As a lifelong KNBR 680 listener and SAN LEANDRO native, I’m thrilled to have this opportunity to reach so many die-hard BAY AREA sports fans on a nightly basis. Hosting evenings on KNBR carries a responsibility to serve fans the quality content they deserve as the daily news cycle hits a close. On KNBR TONIGHT, KEVIN and I will provide a unique perspective on the games and will look to entertain/inform listeners every time we open the mics. I can’t wait to get started on AUGUST 14th!”
