It was a stunning moment for Bay Area listeners Thursday morning as legendary talk radio station KGO 810 went silent abruptly after 80 years.

“No one anticipated it and it happened literally at the last instant,” said former KGO host Mark Thompson.

Thompson was a KGO talk radio host until Thursday morning.

“We were maybe eight minutes into the show and the announcement came on that 'There's an exciting new format coming,'" he said. "I was just the guy who ended up having to be the last voice there and it was sad to be honest. It was difficult."

The station’s website and Twitter feed posted a brief statement saying, “Today, we say goodbye to the legendary KGO," thanking listeners and the people who worked there to produce award-winning programming. Then, promising “a new era" starting Monday.

"None of us expected it. Maybe we should have. I mean, these are tough times in the broadcast industry, television and radio, but particularly radio,” Thompson said.

Thompson said it was shocking and sudden. He added that he will miss it but is trying to maintain a positive outlook.
