2006. In May 2006, long time program director Phil Manning announced that he was leaving the station. Scott Geiger, also known as Lazlo, of sister station KRBZ in Kansas City, was named the new program director on June 1, 2006. In November 2006, he began hosting afternoons with a simulcast of his KRBZ show, which was co-hosted by his then-wife Afentra Bandokoudis, under "The Church of Lazlo" moniker. In June 2008, KNDD announced that Mike Kaplan would be replacing Geiger as program director. Kaplan had previously served as operations manager for two of Entercom's stations in New Orleans. KNDD also announced that Geiger would stay on as a DJ, and continue to host his afternoon show "The Church of Lazlo." On July 17, Lazlo and Afentra announced that they would depart KNDD. On August 25, both "Afentra's Big Fat Morning Buzz" and "The Church of Lazlo" returned to Kansas City on KRBZ. In February 2009, the syndicated Adam Carolla Show was cancelled, leaving KNDD without a morning show. After an on-air search for a new morning host that featured well known DJs and local musicians, Whitney "Red" Knoerlein was named host of a freshly resurrected version of The Morning End. The current wake-up host is Gregr. In April 2013, program director Mike Kaplan, who became Program Director at alternative rock station KYSR in Los Angeles, was replaced by Garett Michaels. Awards In 2007, the station was nominated for the "Alternative Station of the Year" award by Radio & Records magazine. Other nominees included WBCN in Boston; KROQ-FM in Los Angeles; KTBZ-FM in Houston; KITS in San Francisco; and WWDC in Washington, D.C.
