As KROQ gets ready to hold the 35th edition of its “Almost Acoustic Christmas” concert event next month, the “world famous” alternative rock station has even more reason to celebrate: Not only did the station hit its best ratings in September since Summer 2004, but KROQ is once again a force in Los Angeles morning drive radio.

Variety noted last year that KROQ has been on a comeback ever since the returns of longtime program director Kevin Weatherly in June 2022 and former morning show host Kevin Ryder, who was given the afternoon drive-time slot in April 2025. But the rebirth of KROQ can also be attributed to the massive growth of “Klein.Ally.Show” in the mornings, which has seen a remarkable rise, particularly over the past year.
