Kevin Ryder Returns to KROQ for Afternoons

Kevin Ryder is making a highly anticipated return to KROQ Los Angeles, where he will host the afternoon drive slot after being away for five years. Ryder, a Radio Hall of Fame inductee, initially gained fame alongside Gene 'Bean' Baxter on the iconic 'Kevin & Bean Show,' which ran for three decades. His return marks a significant moment as he rejoins the station at a time when his longtime programming chief is back at the helm. The change in schedule will also see current afternoon host Megan Holiday moving to the evening slot. Ryder expressed excitement about returning to a station he considers home, highlighting the unique bond he has with its listeners. KROQ's Senior Vice President of Programming praised Ryder's impactful legacy and the 'full circle' nature of his comeback.
