Entravision Communications says it has made history with what it describes as the first AI co-hosted Spanish-language radio show in the U.S., as its Los Angeles morning program "Al Aire y Sin Permiso" continues to post strong audience growth.

The show, heard weekdays from 8-10am on KLYY-FM (Jose 97.5) in Riverside, pairs veteran radio personality Geraldine "GeeGee" Guzman with Coyotec, an AI-powered radio host introduced by Entravision in September, 2025. The company says the program combines artificial intelligence with traditional radio storytelling to create a unique listening experience for Spanish-speaking audiences.

Entravision said the show reflects its broader effort to explore how emerging technologies can enhance creativity, storytelling, and audience engagement while maintaining strong cultural connections with listeners.

"After ten years in LA radio, I know true connection," Guzman said. "As part of the first-ever AI radio show, we're breaking completely new ground. It's a space where tech meets the streets of LA, keeping our audience locked into a conversation that literally no one else is having."

Coyotec was developed under the leadership of Eduardo Maytorena, Entravision's President of Audio, and LeaAnna Hernandez, EVP of AI Strategy. Hernandez said the program is designed to encourage listeners to explore new technologies while highlighting the role of Latinos in innovation and problem-solving.

"For years, radio has been sold as inventory. We believe the future is about experiences, storytelling, and audience connection," Maytorena said. "What makes 'Al Aire y Sin Permiso' so exciting is that it brings personality, culture, and innovation together."
