KNBR Hosts Tom Tolbert and John Lund Dismissed Amid Major Station Restructuring

Cumulus Media's layoffs at KNBR include longtime sports personalities, reflecting broader industry cost-cutting measures.

Tom Tolbert, a former Golden State Warriors player and KNBR host for 28 years, was let go as part of the station's staff reductions.
John Lund, co-host of the 'Papa & Lund' show, was also dismissed in the restructuring efforts by KNBR's owner, Cumulus Media.
The layoffs are part of a broader trend in the radio industry, with companies like iHeartMedia also implementing cost-saving measures.
KNBR's recent staff changes follow a previous wave of layoffs last year, affecting other longtime hosts and digital team members.
Tolbert's final show aired without any farewell message, indicating the abrupt nature of the decision.
