“The NBA Life with Matt Bonner,” a radio program hosted by Chris Ryan and myself, has grown to the point it can be heard on four buttons on your radio dial. Most importantly, the show was picked up by WGIR 610 AM, which sends a powerful signal throughout the state.

The weekly interview appears in the New Hampshire Sunday News, and the radio show can be heard Mondays at 6 p.m. on WGIR 610 AM, WGIN AM 930, WKXL 1450 AM and 103.9 FM.

From the recent show:
Sunday News: How has your life changed as a dad?
Matt Bonner: Well, there are the domestic duties of changing diapers and feedings and all that stuff, and memorizing every Dr. Seuss book from reading them so many times. But the moment I held her in my arms right after she was born, from that point on I couldn’t imagine life without her. It’s crazy because I had never really held a baby before in my entire life. I was nervous. How am I going to learn how to take care of a baby? Sure, I read the books and took the classes, but this was the real deal. Sure enough, two days later, it was like I’d worked in a nursery my whole life. She’s doing great, and we’re really happy.
SN: How did you decide on the name?
MB: My wife liked Evangeline a lot. Vesper was James Bonds’ first true love. We thought that was a cool name and threw that in there. We call her EV, which I really like.

  1. WGIR 610 AM, which sends a powerful signal throughout the state.

    You’ve got to be kidding me!

    I can’t get this station in Chichester!

    Besides, all those stations may add up to about 100 listeners!

    I am going to have Cardinal Marconi contact you boys. You do need some help.

    Strong signal around the state, now that is a real laugher!
