Bonnie-Jill Laflin The Glue That Sticks on KNBR Morning Show

Bonnie-Jill Laflin is an integral part of the KNBR Morning Show and also one of the most gifted sports-radio journalists; just the other morning she asked Brian Murphy if he put his shoes on with a sock and sock and a shoe and a show or a sock and a shoe and a sock and a shoe.


Riveting stuff.


I was advised by my friend, Bumpy Bumkin that Bonnie was hired by KNBR not so much for her looks but so she could add much-needed audio fritatti to the show's benefit. It is a massive undertaking but well worth the effort.


Laflin is quite the sports voice and it shows. Her breakdowns on 49ers' OTAs and the Warriors' progression in the NBA Finals are must-listen radio. The NFL? She's a regular Mel Kuiper only more bubbly and educated.


But the BIG reason I like BJL is her networking with Powlie Mac --they form the glue that makes the Knibber AM extravaganza such a vital presence in the community.


That said, even if its radio and we can't see her, I'm sure BJL has MAJOR -LEAGUE STUFF. Trust me on this one.

  1. If she was interviewing a marital arts expert, would that be her demonstration of "karate fritatti"? ;)

  2. WOW...Bonnie is 🔥(hot).

    On another note, did you see Vicky Nguyen's first report on NBC Nightly News sitting across from Lester Holt

  3. Smurf and Smack was bad radio before Bonnie, during Bonnie and After Bonnie is gone. Why KNBR keeps these two i dont know. I wonder with the end of Lock step Larry if the line up on KNBR gets a refresh?

    1. What a total waste of 50,000 watts. I, too, am absolutely amazed how these two "dudes" remain on the SPOTS Leader. Utter dreck.

  4. Her name isn't even included in the announcer intro. She's not considered an equal team member.

  5. Have not listen to the Greatful Dead Springstein guy and the nervous laugh guy in years.

  6. She (and Kate Scott before her) probably don't get much air time because Brian Murphy would prefer to be the only female voice heard on the show.

  7. LOL, 1:33! Not sure I want to know how 10:27 & Klassic feel about Lockstep's beloved inane one, Amy G. (Emmy? More like Ewww.)

    1. Don't get me started on Amy G! Although it's weird, for some reason she isn't bothering me as much this year. Maybe because the Giants aren't playing well and I welcome any distraction? At this point I'll take Amy G all day every day over those idiots on the morning show.

  8. Bonnie-Jill should have a show of her own. She knows more about sports than than the smurfs in the morning.

  9. Are those seductive poses what gets them the job, or what keeps it? Rather pathetic advertisement of lesser intellectual facility. Maybe might be happier as a stripper.

  10. I often wonder what Lee Hammer must be thinking keeping those two fools on the morning show. That being said, Bonnie-Jill is pretty damn good, when they let her speak. She comes in prepared to talk about whatever and has as Gary would say, "very good knowledge." She'll do her time and then move on to something bigger and better.

  11. Murph needs to teach her how to ask questions. She prefaces every question with some long, drawn statement that answers her own question. "Joe Montana won a national championship, four Super Bowls and is in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Do you think he's a good quarterback?"
