KLOS-FM/Los Angeles afternoon hosts Kevin Ryder and Doug "Sluggo" Roberts are out reports Variety.

Earilier this year, the company eliminated all of the midday hosts, as well as some part-timers

Ryder and Roberts launched as "Kevin & Sluggo" on KLOS in 2021, a year after Entercom's KROQ ousted Ryder's morning show "Kevin in the Morning with Allie & Jensen," which successed "Kevin & Bean." Before that, Sluggo handled afternoons on KLOS since 2019.
