While nothing has been officially announced, it appears as though Audacy Alternative 106.7 KROQ Pasadena/Los Angeles has settled on a new morning show name following the departure of Ted Stryker this summer.
Ally Johnson has been bumped up to co-lead of the morning show with incumbent Kevin Klein for the newly minted “Klein. Ally. Show.”. Johnson previously served as Klein’s co-host on “Kevin Klein Live” on then “Live 105” KITS San Francisco from 2014 to 2017 and was set to join him in mornings on Hot Talk/Rock “97.3 The Machine” KEGY San Diego before the show was cancelled before ever debuting due to a backlash from promotional tweets for its use of suicidal imagery. Both remained with Audacy moving to Los Angeles with Klein joining Stryker first in afternoons at KROQ before moving to mornings in March 2020 and Johnson hosting a show on LGBTQ+ “Channel Q” before joining Stryker & Klein last September.
Longtime KROQ staffers DJ Omar Khan and Jonathan ‘Beer Mug” Kantrowe remain in place with Klein and Johnson.
The “Klein. Ally. Show.” also airs on Audacy’s “Alt 96.5” KRBZ Kansas City, “Alt 103.7” KVIL Dallas, and until today on “Alt 105.3” KITS San Francisco.
