In summer 2005, Mike O was let go, and returned to programming "Energy 98". Rod Carrillo took over programming KNRJ, and Beau Duran (who previously worked weekends and evenings under Mike) took over afternoons. But a few months later, Rod also gained control of KAJM and let go of his MD Lysa D (who was on both stations), in addition to Beau Duran, and the station became mostly jockless. The unhosted morning show was titled "More Music Mornings", while the unhosted mid-day show was called "More Music Mid-Days". However, that didn't help ratings, and it was later decided to bring back Pistol Pete as afternoon host.
