I always did wonder how did Bonta do a late post game show for NBC and then literally a few hours later do the morning roast. I’m glad you’re taking steps to better your health and get some precious time back.

Damn, remember these guys driving Kate Scott insane back during COVID but being so entertaining during a crazy time. Insane to hear this happen but makes too much sense. Glad Bonta is doing what is best for him and the family, can't wait to continue following these two.

[traceries]

What the…wow this is crazy man. Bonta you are my morning voice of reason. But as a Dad and a husband I also understand the need to recalibrate and prioritize time with your daughter and fiancé.

I will miss you on the roast but also look forward to seeing you on the broadcasts. Congrats on the expanded TV opportunity. Much deserved.

Much respect and thanks for all the mornings that your sports talk adjusted my mood, distracted me from the trials of life, made me laugh and educated me about the sports I love.

See you around King.

Thanks Bonta for being in my mornings. Born and raised in The Bay Area, living in Houston, Tx so I have some type Bay Area radio starting my day

[byrdman]

Congratulations Bonta! I will miss hearing you on the Morning Roast, and thank you for all you did on the Morning Roast and on 95.7, but I'm looking forward to seeing you in a more expanded capacity on NBC Sports Bay Area. Bringing some of what you brought to the table on 95.7 covering multiple sports, to NBC Sports Bay Area. Will be cool seeing you be a part of NBC Sports Bay Area's Giants and Niners programming as well, along with what you already do for them covering the Warriors.

You definitely DID go hard, Bonta! I also often wondered how you managed to do it.

I think it's a great thing that you are prioritizing your health and that you seize that opportunity for an expanded role at NBC Sports Bay Area.

And that you know family comes first.

Much love, best of luck. 🎉❤
