On January 1, 2001, 870 AM adopted the KRLA call letters.^[1] A long-time Oldies station at 1110 AM, now Radio Disney affiliate KDIS, had used those call letters for several decades, beginning in 1959.

Specialty shows featuring law, pet care and financial advice, as well as Brokered programming air throughout the weekends on KRLA. On June 14, 2010, KRLA added Glenn Beck's radio show to the lineup, but the show was discontinued several years later.^[2]^[3] The KRLA-produced Terry Anderson Show aired on Sundays at 9 p.m., until Anderson died on July 7, 2010.^[4]

In 2014 rival talk radio station KABC, owned by Cumulus Media, discontinued the Mark Levin and Larry Elder shows. In 2015 Salem Communications added both hosts to its line-up.^[5] By June 2015 KRLA's Los Angeles ratings pulled ahead of rival KABC.^[6] Salem Communications owns two other Talk Radio stations in Southern California, 590 KTIE that serves the Inland Empire (Riverside and San Bernardino county metro listening area) and 1170 KCBQ serving San Diego. ^[7]
