Cumulus Media has announced that its San Francisco Talk stations KGO and KSFO will each debut new morning shows on Monday, March 2. Syndicated "The Armstrong & Getty Show" will move from KGO (810 AM) to KSFO (560 AM) and will be heard weekdays from 6-9am. Concurrently, KGO welcomes "The Morning Show with Nikki Medoro" to its morning lineup, airing weekdays from 6-10am. Veteran newsman Bret Burkhart joins host Nikki Medoro for the program.

VP/Market Manager Doug Harvill 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."

Operations Manager and KGO-KSFO Program Director Lee Hammer 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. Nikki and Bret will bring a fresh approach to the day's news, both locally and nationally. They'll also invite the Bay Area's listeners to join the conversation and share their opinions."

Hammer added, "I'm also excited that Armstrong and Getty will be staying in our station family, just moving down the dial to KSFO. Joe and Jack are fantastic entertainers, super knowledgeable and they're not afraid to share their opinions. They'll be a great addition to the KSFO lineup."
