KROQ's Klein.Ally.Show Led Los Angeles Morning Ratings in September

KROQ's morning show, the Klein.Ally.Show, ranked No. 1 in Los Angeles morning drive in September, according to Variety. Hosted by Kevin Klein and Ally Johnson, the show topped the chart in three adult groups: listeners aged 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54.
Ratings are measured in "shares," the slice of all listening in a group that goes to a station or show. In September, the Klein.Ally.Show won a 10.8 share among 18-34s, a 9.9 among 18-49s and a 9.4 among 25-54s.
The station did well overall too. KROQ posted a 6.7 share among adults 25-54 in September, its highest figure in that measurement in 22 years. Variety reports that it was the station's best September since the summer of 2004.
October brought a shift. KROQ ranked No. 1 in the Los Angeles market among adults 25-54 that month, ahead of the Hot AC station KBIG "My FM." The Klein.Ally.Show slipped to No. 2 in that group. Its rival, "The Woody Show" on KYSR "Alt 98.7," regained the top spot in the 25-54 group.
Across the year, the show has been a steady presence near the top. It was No. 1 in the 25-54 group in six of the first ten months of 2026. Looking back, the picture was different. Through 2024 and the first half of 2025, the "Klein/Ally Show" ranked between 10th and 18th in Los Angeles radio ratings among adults 25-54.
The show's rise has come with a team change. Kevin Weatherly, KROQ's program director, returned to the station in June 2022. Former morning host Kevin Ryder was moved to the afternoon drive-time slot in April 2025. Before that, "Kevin & Bean" ran for 30 years as a Los Angeles morning institution, until Gene "Bean" Baxter left KROQ at the end of 2019.
KROQ is also gearing up for its next big event. Variety reports that the station was preparing its 35th "Almost Acoustic Christmas" concert.
Radio ratings are a snapshot. Each month brings new numbers, and the Klein.Ally.Show's position in the 25-54 group has moved between first and second in the most recent months.
